Abstract: A kit for constructing a cake-protecting assembly, including at least two first elongated frame members, at least two second elongated frame members connectable to the pair of first elongated frame members to yield a frame defining a working plane, at least two leg members pivotably connected to each respective elongated first frame member, and at least two elongated stabilizing members connectable to extend orthogonally from a leg member connected to each respective elongated support member and oriented parallel to the working plane. The kit also includes four pegs connectible to the elongated first frame members for limiting the movement of each respective leg member.

Abstract: A method and computer program product for performing a latency analysis to determine one or more latency statistics for one or more network links within a distributed computing network. The one or more latency statistics are compared to one or more benchmark latency criteria to determine if at least one of the network links is a latency-compatible network link. If at least one of the network links is a latency-compatible network link, at least one additional network analysis is performed on at least one of the latency-compatible network links.

Abstract: A monolithic vent pipe flashing for use with a vent pipe projecting from a surface, such as a roof. The flashing includes a primary barrier with an upper surface and a lower surface, with the lower surface abutting the surface from which the vent pipe projects. A vent pipe cover is attached to and extends from the primary barrier. The vent pipe cover includes a vent pipe cover bore for receiving the vent pipe. The vent pipe cover body includes a first end and a second end, and the first end is attached to and overlaps a portion of the lower surface of the primary barrier. A secondary seal barrier is at least partially attached to the portion of the first end overlapping the lower surface of the primary barrier. A method of manufacturing a vent pipe flashing is also disclosed.
