Abstract: A method for optimizing target content on a search results webpage includes receiving source code defining the webpage from a search engine server. The method further includes processing the source code to identify a target source code block in the source code, the target source code block defining, at least partially, the target content. The method further includes processing the target source code block to determine a relative metric for the target content with respect to a layout of the search results webpage. Thereafter, the relative metric may be utilized to optimize advertising expenditures in order to improve a relative position of the target content.

A needle lumen can be extended along a longitudinal axis of the polymer needle. The distal end can include an insertion tip. An elongate sleeve can include a first end and a second end. The polymer needle can be located within an inner bore of the elongate sleeve. The insertion tip of the polymer needle can be disposed at a distance from the elongate sleeve. A first electrode can be coupled to the device and a second electrode can be electrically isolated from the first electrode. The circuit can be configured to provide a signal based on an electrical characteristic between the first electrode and the second electrode. At least one indicator can be communicatively coupled to the circuit and configured to provide an output based on the signal.

Abstract: Systems and methods for implementing extensible attributes in ETL are disclosed. In some examples, attributes configured at a source file may be extracted from the source file. The extracted attributes can be mapped to a target column of a data warehouse table, and then a dynamic ETL script may be generated. The dynamic script may be executed to move data associated with the attributes to an appropriate new column of the data warehouse.

Abstract: Embodiments of apparatuses and methods for reforming of hydrocarbons including recovery of products are provided. In one example, a method comprises separating a reforming-zone effluent into a net gas phase stream and a liquid phase hydrocarbon stream. The net gas phase stream is separated for forming an H2-rich stream and a first liquid phase hydrocarbon stream. The H2-rich stream may be contacted with an adsorbent to form an H2-ultra rich stream and a gas stream. C3/C4 hydrocarbons are absorbed from the gas stream with the liquid phase hydrocarbon stream. The gas stream may be contacted with an H2/hydrocarbon separation membrane to separate the PSA tail gas stream and form an H2-rich permeate stream and an H2 depleted non-permeate residue stream.

Abstract: An apparatus for separating a feed stream into product streams. The apparatus includes an upper section, a middle section, and a lower section. The middle section has a dividing wall separating it into two portions. A liquid barrier blocks the flow of liquid from the upper section into the middle section and allows vapor to flow from the middle section to the upper section. A vapor and liquid barrier blocks both the flow of both vapor from the lower section to the middle section and the flow of liquid from the middle section to the lower section. Vapor conduits allow vapor to flow from the lower section to each of the middle portions in varying amounts. Also processes for separating a feed stream.

Abstract: A comparative reporting system provides financial benchmarking and analytics. Integrating public reporting and enterprise software systems, raw financial information from external sources derived from a plurality of reporting sources can be ingested and processed to extract attributes and metrics. The extracted attributes and metrics can be data warehoused together with financial information from the enterprise software system. Analytics can be performed to generate a comparison between the enterprise and the plurality of reporting sources.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method useful in the process of contacting a first product that includes ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, and glycerol with the catalyst composition, thereby producing a second product that includes acrolein and acetaldehyde.

Abstract: The present teaching relates to providing a query suggestion. In one example, a request is received for query suggestions with respect to a query prefix input by a user. A plurality of query suggestions is determined based on the query prefix and a preceding query input by the user. A degree of popularity of the preceding query is determined. One or more query suggestions are selected from the plurality of query suggestions based on the degree of popularity of the preceding query. The one or more query suggestions are provided as a response to the request.

Abstract: A catalyst structure includes a plurality of metal oxides formed on a support, where the support includes zirconia and/or silica. The metal oxides include at least three metals selected from the group consisting of chromium, iron, nickel, and a platinum group metal. The catalyst structure can be used in an oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) reaction process for converting an alkane to an olefin. In some embodiments, carbon dioxide utilized in the ODH reaction process is obtained from a flue gas derived from a fossil fuel burning power plant.

Abstract: According to embodiments, a substantially coaxial arrangement of a camera, a light source, and an ultrasonic sensor can be positioned in an housing of a system that can be deployed from the tool port of a standard bronchoscope. Illumination from the light source facilitates positioning of the system by an operator using information from the camera. The ultrasonic system can determine when an object to be biopsied is adjacent to a biopsy needle.
