Abstract: A portable porous pavement system includes a plurality of porous pavement units and a plurality of clamping devices, in which each of the porous pavement units is connected to an adjacent porous pavement unit by at least one clamping device. Each clamping device includes a first bracket and a second bracket. The first bracket defines a slot arrangement. The second bracket is in intimate communication with the slot arrangement of the first bracket. The second bracket has a twisted arrangement to secure the second bracket and the first bracket together. Two adjacent walls of two adjacent porous pavement units are sandwiched between the first bracket and the second bracket to secure the two adjacent porous pavement units together. A method for assembling a portable porous pavement system includes providing first and second porous pavement units; mounting a C-shaped clamp member over two adjacent walls of the first and second porous pavement unit; orienting the first and second porous pavement units with the C-shaped clamp member on a surface; providing a locking bracket having a U-shaped section extending between first and second slotted wings; mounting the locking bracket over the C-shaped clamp member by orienting the U-shaped section over the two adjacent walls, with the first arm going through the first slotted wing and the second arm going through the second slotted wing; and twisting the first arm and the second arm to secure the locking bracket and the C-shaped clamp member around the first and second porous pavement units.

Inventor: SHEEHAN PATRICK M
IPC: G06F3/00
Filed: 2008-02-01
Abstract: Assets of broadcast network content are targeted to network users of interest based on location information regarding user equipment devices. Asset providers can specify location targeting criteria via a graphical user interface (4400) displaying mapping information (4406). This location targeting criteria can then be compared to location information regarding user equipment devices so that assets are delivered to appropriate devices. The comparison of the location targeting criteria to the device location information can be performed at the user equipment devices or at another location. In the latter case, the assets can be addressed to appropriate user equipment devices or appropriate user equipment devices can be directed to select the asset, which is broadcast via the network. In this manner, assets can be targeted to individual network users on a basis independent of network topology.

Title: Water deficit-inducible promoters
Inventor: KUMIMOTO RODERICK W
IPC: C12N15/11
Filed: 2008-02-07
Abstract: Water deficit-inducible promoter sequences were identified that may be used to produce transgenic plants that are more tolerant to water deficit and related hyperosmotic stresses than control plants, and yet are wild-type or nearly wild type in appearance. Any of these water deficit-inducible promoters may be incorporated into an expression vector that comprises a polynucleotide regulated by one such promoter and which encodes a polypeptide that, when ectopically expressed, improves water deficit tolerance in plants that are similar to control plants in their morphology and development.

Filed: 2009-12-18
Abstract: The invention relates to a device and to a method for the transfer of flexible flat objects, in particular printed products, between two conveyors (10, 20). The device comprises a first gripper conveyor (10) with first grippers (12) moved along a first gripper conveyor path (U1) for the essentially hanging transport of the objects (2, 2') in a conveyor direction (F) by way of gripping a first object edge (3, 3'), a second gripper conveyor (20) with second grippers (22) moved along a second gripper conveyor path (U2), for receiving the objects (2, 2') by way of gripping a second object edge (4, 4') which lies opposite the first object edge (3, 3'), and at least one actuation device (40, 50) for opening and closing the first and second grippers (12, 22) in a manner such that in a transfer region (T), a transfer of the objects (2, 2) from the first grippers (12) to the second grippers (22) may take place. The distances of the first and the second grippers (12, 22) are different to one another in front of the transfer region (T), wherein the distances of the first grippers (12) are smaller than that of the second grippers (22). The second grippers catch up with the first grippers and thus simplify the controlled transfer of the objects (2) from a first gripper (12) to an assigned second gripper (22) by way of the distances of the first grippers (12) being reduced in the transfer region thus the grippers being delayed and/or the distances of the second grippers (22) in the transfer region (T) being increased, thus the grippers (12) being accelerated.

Abstract: The application describes a software (Poseidon Anti-key logger software) system and methodology for protecting against Crime ware key logger attacks that utilize, for example, form-grabbing, hook based and browser memory injection techniques. The application protects the browser and operating system from key logging Crime ware attacks, and the loss of critical user confidential information often entered into internet forms for the purpose of buying items or logging into financial institutions. An embodiment of a method for blocking memory injection form grabbing attacks comprises the following:  Using a static 0 ring API wrapper, the object creates a restorable virtualized API shell which upon detection of a memory injection form grabbing event, the browser memory tables are restored using default memory tables. Using VT-x (Intel IA32) and SVM/Pacifica (AMD64) virtualization and applying it system wide by wrapping system drivers and creating a repetitive restore memory shell in resident memory the software provides protection against hook based, form grabbers and memory injection (Zeus Trojan) key stroke loggers.
