Abstract: Methods, systems, and arrangements facilitate information interexchange between a telecommunications network and an information service provider. For example, a business-to-business (B2B) engine includes one or more logic modules for interfacing with the telecommunications network and with the information service provider. The B2B engine facilitates the reporting of e.g.  real-time information from the telecommunications network to the information service provider. This real-time information may include subscriber unit location that is proactively sent by the subscriber unit to the B2B engine for forwarding to the information service provider. To avoid possibly congesting the telecommunications network, the B2B engine is empowered to monitor the number of proactively-transmitted location messages and to limit them if they exceed a defined threshold.

Abstract: A disposable, buoyant, scented fishing lure is formed of a soft, resilient, economically disposable plastic material, with a hollow chamber formed within the lure body. A fish attractant scent material and flotation element are placed within the lure body chamber. The float may be coated or otherwise treated with the scent material prior to installation within the lure, to install the scent material therein.      The chamber, with the scent material and float installed therein, is then hermetically sealed to prevent escape of the scent therefrom.      When the lure is to be used, the angler installs a fish hook therein and penetrates the scent and float chamber with the hook. This allows the scent material to be released gradually from the lure through the passages formed by the hook insertion in the lure. Once the scent material has substantially dissipated, the angler may discard the used lure for a fresh one.

Abstract: A turbine brush for a vacuum cleaner comprises a brush body having an upper casing and a lower casing, and the lower casing having a suction slot through which air is drawn in from a surface being cleaned, an agitator unit having bristles at predetermined intervals, a turbine unit rotatably supported within the lower casing and being rotated by the air drawn into the turbine brush by suction force generated by the vacuum cleaner, and a power transfer unit to cause the agitator unit and the turbine unit to rotate in association with each other. When cleaning surfaces having loose material, such as a blanket or other fabric, the suction slot of the lower casing includes a plurality of ribs to inhibit the blanket or other fabric from being drawn into the brush body by the suction force generated by the vacuum cleaner. The bristles are in contact with the surface being cleaned by passing through apertures in the suction slot defined by the plural ribs. The turbine brush enables a user to conveniently clean surfaces having loose material by inhibiting the blanket or fabric from being caught by the turbine brush. Preferably, the upper casing comprises a transparent material.

Abstract: An apparatus and method of creating a seal between two coaxial tubulars so as to create a hanger and a packer. A first tubular (200) is disposed coaxially within a portion of a second, larger tubular (400). A portion of the first tubular is expanded into frictional contact with the second tubular, thereby creating a liner and a hanger. In one embodiment, a pattern of grooves (210) and profile cuts (205) is formed in the surface of a portion of the first tubular body. The grooves and profile cuts in one aspect define a continuous pattern about the circumference of the tubular body which intersect to form a plurality of substantially identical shapes, such as diamonds. The grooves and profile cuts serve to improve the tensile strength of the tubular body. At the same time, the grooves and profile cuts allow for expansion of the tubular body by use of less radial force. The grooves and profile cuts further provide a gripping means, providing additional frictional support for hanging the expanded tubular onto the inner surface of a surrounding second tubular.  Carbide inserts (220) are preferably interdisposed within the pattern of grooves, providing additional gripping means when the smaller diameter tubular body is expanded into the second tubular.

Abstract: The metering device for a liquid medium comprises a cylinder and a piston operatively disposed therein to define a metering chamber ahead of the piston. The outlet end of the cylinder is open and closed by an evacuation valve. The piston is driven forwardly through a working stroke to force the liquid medium in the metering chamber out of the chamber and past the evacuation valve. A check valve located in the metering chamber moves from a closed to an open position on each working stroke to preclude entrapment of air in the metering chamber and thus provide for more accurate metering. The metering device may include means to regulate the length of the working stroke.

Title: Rotating map and user-centric weather prediction
Inventor: SMITH MICHAEL R
IPC: G08B21/10
Filed: 2004-03-04
Granted: 2012-03-27
Abstract: The invention provides a system and method for receiving weather forecast information in a mobile unit and using that information to warn a user of a future weather hazard with reference to the mobile unit's location and/or intended direction of travel. A hazard location algorithm compares a forecast location of each mobile unit with a forecast hazard and transmits a warning to each mobile unit that is predicted to encounter the hazard. As the mobile unit moves, its actual position is updated in the forecasting center, and a revised warning is transmitted to the mobile unit. The hazard information may be displayed on the user's system in the form of a rotating map with an automatically adjustable range to display warning information in relation to tie system's location. Warnings, including audio warnings for playback and crawls for display on a television, can be automatically generated and spoken or displayed to a user.

Abstract: In a method and system for determining the composition of a subscriber loop, the method consists of analyzing the echo responses generated by the transmittal of pulses onto the subscriber loop. In the method, discontinuities along a loop are identified sequentially by comparing the measured waveform to waveforms generated on the basis of a hypothesized topology. The best match for the waveform is identified using a maximum likelihood approach and a maximum a-posteriori probability (MAP) estimator using observed knowledge regarding the loop plant. A multiple path search is also utilized to improve results and reduce computation time. Once the generated waveform that best matched the measured data had been found and a discontinuity identified, the waveform generated is subtracted from the measured data to produce a compensated waveform, which is used to detect the location and cause of the next echo. A calibration method is implemented to further improve data acquisition.
