Abstract: A markup language specification is set forth for providing pseudo-rich media during phone calls, and to implement two endpoints that support this specification. Each implemented endpoint functions as a half-phone and half-browser, where the phone call consists partly of the traditional full-duplex audio stream between callers, supplemented by pseudo-rich media being transmitted from one party to the other. The pseudo- rich media includes, but is not limited to, text, pictures and hyperlinks.

Title: Patient support surfaces
Inventor: MAIER EDMUND K
IPC: A47C27/18
Filed: 1998-11-13
Granted: 2010-10-26
Abstract: Multiple varieties of patient support surfaces (10) are presented with a common modular assembly primarily including a perimeter chassis and integrated upper support element. Perimeter bolsters (14) provide relatively firmer support and facilitate safer transfers and better sitting at the edge of the bed. Pressure redistribution air cylinders (36, 38, 40, 42), turned either longitudinally or laterally, are captured by shaped, slotted inner bolsters (68, 70) and underside arches (88, 90, 92, 94) of an integral foam topper (24). Each foam topper (24) integrally incorporated may include a sloping heel pressure relief section for redistributing load to relatively more pressure-tolerant lower legs and calves. An external valving arrangement for a static non-powered embodiment permits practice of a 'recharging' technique using an air pump (118) and self-calibrated valve (124), to return the air pressure in static air cylinders (36, 38, 40, 42) to their original manufactured specifications.

Title: Woodworking machine for shaping molding
Inventor: BURKHOLDER LEON
IPC: B23Q15/22
Filed: 2007-07-19
Granted: 2010-05-25
Abstract: The woodworking machine for shaping molding has a hollow cylindrical cartridge with end caps having openings defined therein adapted for inserting a blank strip of molding through the cartridge. Robotic grippers advance the molding strip through the cartridge in indexed increments. A cutter assembly is mounted on a movable table, the cutter assembly having a plurality of spaced apart cutters. An electronic control system, preferably including a programmable logic controller, causes the grippers to grip the blank molding, insert the blank through the cartridge, actuate the cutter assembly and move the table so that the cutters simultaneously cut a plurality of notches in the molding, retract the cutter assembly, advance the molding the indexed distance, and automatically repeat the cycle, ejecting the strip when notches have been formed in the entire length of the molding. The machine may be used to form dental molding.

A data structure is maintained which indicates whether the records in a given logical partition are up-to-date. When an update or insert request is received, the data structure is modified to indicate that all logical partitions storing a copy of the record to be updated, or partitions into which the new record is to be inserted, are not up-to-date. When the record has been updated or inserted, the data structure is modified to indicate that the logical partition storing the record is up-to-date. When a read request is received, the record is read from an up-to-date logical partition storing the record.
