Title: Motion-based disabling of messaging on a wireless communications device
Inventor: VANDER VEEN RAYMOND PAUL
IPC: G06F21/36
Filed: 2009-12-15
Abstract: When a wireless communications device is traveling a speed exceeding a first predetermined threshold but less than a second predetermined threshold, the device is presumed traveling in a motor vehicle. In order to inhibit operation of the wireless communication device when traveling, access to certain device functions or applications such as e-mail, text messaging, etc. are limited by requiring the user of the device to respond correctly to a randomly generated visual challenge, such as, for example, a CAPTCHA (in which a user is prompted to recognize the characters in a visually distorted string of text). This visual challenge presents a sufficient obstacle that the user will be less likely to use the wireless communications device for e-mailing or texting while operating a motor vehicle.

Abstract: A pulsed induction heating system removes bonded elements from underlying substrates.  A coil loop of a tool fits around the base of the element to be removed. The tool heats the element and the substrate in short pulses that are followed by brief, non-heated wait periods. The temperature of the substrate is measured during the wait periods between pulses to avoid overheating. When the substrate reaches a target temperature, the adhesive is sufficiently softened such that the element and adhesive are re adily s craped off without damaging the substrate.

Abstract: A catalytic burner is provided. The method of using the catalytic burner utilizes flameless combustion. The absence of a flame results in a more even temperature distribution throughout the length of the burner. The invention lowers the autoignition temperature by placing a catalytic surface within the burner and offers relatively even distribution of heat from the burner. Thus, the amount and location of the combustion reaction can be controlled by varying the amount and distribution of catalyst within the burner.

Abstract: A rail seal for sealing the gap between a rail and a concrete panel in a railroad crossing so as to provide a generally even or level surface for vehicular or pedestrian traffic while still providing an appropriate rail structure for receiving and guiding the train wheels along the tracks is provided. More particularly, the upper surface of the rail seal is formed with a recessed portion or flangeway for receiving the flanged-end of a train. The flangeway or recessed portion, however, is formed so that the surface of the flangeway lies in a plane above the bottom of the rail head but below the upper surface of the rail head, thereby providing a "shallow" flangeway. The provision of a "shallow" flangeway helps to reduce the risks associated with vehicular and/or other pedestrian traffic that must access or cross the railroad tracks. Specifically, the shallow flangeway helps to prevent the heels of pedestrian shoes or the smaller width bicycle, stroller or wheelchair wheels from becoming trapped in the gaps typically associated with railroad crossing structures.

Abstract: The slot rail assembly, in combination with a rail portion, at least one baluster, at least one baluster connector, and a lateral slot and at least one spacer is disclosed and claimed.  The baluster may be slid distally along a lateral slot to accom-modate the pitch or slope of incline or decline addressed. Lateral movement of the balusters within the lateral slot and change in relative angle of the baluster in relation to the rail portion allows the balusters to stay 'plumb' no matter what the pitch of the stairs may be. At least one spacer may be snapped into place to fix the horizontal position of the balusters and to provide a seal against ingress of debris and moisture into the lateral slot. The slot rail assembly may be deployed as a stair rail, a stairway or an im-proved connection system for balusters and stair rails.

Title: System and method for advertising on a peer-to-peer network
Inventor: HOPKINS SAMUEL P
IPC: G06F15/173
Filed: 2008-06-11
Abstract: A system for advertising on a Peer-to-Peer network detects a search request of a node in a Peer-to-Peer network and prepares an unsolicited response (e.g., advertisement) to the search request of the node. Once the unsolicited response is prepared, the system sends the unsolicited response to the node. For example, a Peer-to-Peer network node issues a search request and a system prepares an advertisement. After preparing the advertisement, the system sends the advertisement to the Peer-to-Peer network node that issued the search request. The process of sending advertisements can be made to each node issuing a search request without discrimination. In one example, the system detects a search request of a node in a Peer-to-Peer network; prepares an advertisement based on a predetermined search criteria; and sends the advertisement to the node for advertising on the Peer-to-Peer network.
