An electronic cigarette includes a housing, a sleeve, an atomizer, a latch assembly and a control assembly. The sleeve includes a first limiting position and a second limiting position. The atomizer includes a mouthpiece. The atomizer is capable of being inserted into the sleeve and telescoping relative to the sleeve along an axial direction of the sleeve, so as to expose the mouthpiece or take out the atomizer from the sleeve. The latch assembly is arranged on an end of the atomizer opposite to the mouthpiece and configured to latch the atomizer in the sleeve when the atomizer is retracted into the sleeve and is positioned at the first limiting position. The control assembly is arranged on the sleeve and configured to unlock the latch assembly to allow the end of the atomizer to move to the second limiting position along the axial direction of the sleeve.

A cleaning device for a medical implement is disclosed. The cleaning device includes a housing, a cleaning agent within the housing, and a movable septum in the housing that maintains the cleaning agent within the housing until receipt by the housing of the site of the medical implement. Related apparatus, systems, techniques, and articles are also described.

A device includes a first flow channel and a liquid space for a liquid. The device also includes a second flow channel arranged in a flow connection with the liquid space, and a steam space arranged to receive steam forming in the liquid space. The first flow channel is arranged in a flow connection with the steam space. Gas flow to the device is conveyed via the second flow channel to the liquid space. Resistance is induced to the exhaled gas flow flowing through the second flow channel and pressure is increased in the liquid space. As a result of the pressure increase, steam produced in the liquid space is received in the steam space. The gas flow is conveyed from the steam space via the first flow channel to the outside of the device.

A gaming system is provided, including a jackpot server and a gaming server. The jackpot server accumulates respective contributions from gaming client devices into a progressive jackpot. The gaming server presents wagering games to a player on a gaming client device. The wagering games include a first wagering game having a progressive jackpot component, and a second wagering game not having a progressive jackpot component. The gaming server receives a jackpot token from the player, including a token identification associated with the player and a progressive jackpot identification correlating to a token progressive jackpot. A wager is received for the second wagering game, which is conducted such that the player participates in the token progressive jackpot. The gaming server transmits a message to the jackpot server, including a portion of the wager as a contribution to the token progressive jackpot and an outcome of the second wagering game.
