Abstract: Systems and techniques for communication over telephony wireline. A command interface and control device may include a wireline input configured to connect the device to an operative line of a wireline telephony network (such as the PSTN) and to transmit voice signals to and receive voice signals from the wireline telephony network. The device may also include a cellular module configured to transmit signals to and receive signals from a cellular telephony network and a system controller to control communications on the wireline input and the cellular module. One or more wireline adapter modules may be configured to provide control functionality local to a telecommunications device.

Abstract: Methods and systems for identifying and presenting information are described. Search results are received from a search engine. An entity associated with a networked site is selected using a selection criterion. A determination is made as to whether the listing includes a link to the networked site or includes the link to the networked site at a list position that fails to satisfy a first criterion. After determining that the link to the site associated with the entity is not included in the search result listing, or that the link to the site associated with the entity is not at a position in the search result listing that satisfies the first criterion, the search listing is modified by causing the link to the site associated with the entity to appear in a first position in the search listing. The modified search listing is displayed on a user terminal.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide systems and methods directed to managing health care information and delivery of health care services by maintaining a set of workflows for processing of health care information or managing the delivery of the health care services according to different modes of operation, e.g., a base operation mode and a revenue generation mode. A set of reference data and a set of rules applicable to the set of health care information or the delivery of the one or more health care service can also be maintained. When health care transaction information is received from one or more parties, e.g., a patient, a health care provider, a pharmacy, or a payer, one or more of the workflows can be executed to process the received health care transaction information based on the set of reference data and the set of rules.

Abstract: Systems and methods are configured to control network and content access. A URL rewrite engine receives a content request from a client device coupled to a local network. A first set of rules, the first set of rules comprising a combination of meta rules and content rules, is accessed. The URL rewrite engine applies the first set of rules to the request and/or the requested content to determine how the content request and/or the content are to be processed. Based at least in part on the application of the first set of rules, rewriting the request, denying the request, or modifying the requested content is performed.

Abstract: Certain embodiments of locally and automatically articulated content requester technology (LAACRT) may enable bandwidth/internet access providers and premise operators to provide improved opportunities for advertising and content to be delivered to an end user. Advertising content may be identified by the system and, optionally, blocked and/or replaced prior to being transmitted to a user terminal. Bids may be solicited from advertising publishers for replacement ads to be displayed in place of the blocked advertising content.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing user-specific information and utilizing user-specific information for web applications are described. A user query is received and appended with a temporary ID which contains information related to the user. The appended user input is provided to an application. An indication that the application wishes to unlock the temporary ID is received. The temporary ID is unlocked and information about the user is sent to the application. An item of value may be provided for a valid temporary ID and/or to unlock the temporary ID. The temporary ID is changed and/or associated with a null value or inaccurate data. The application may then provide another item of value for a valid temporary ID and/or to unlock the temporary ID, in order to receive certain information related the user.

Abstract: Methods and systems are described for processing and displaying or playing content. Web page data for a first web page is received from a remote system, wherein the web page is to be displayed on a terminal associated with a user. An automatic identification is performed of a available content space in the first web page data. A user-defined profile is accessed. Content is automatically selected based at least in part on the user profile. The selected content is then inserted into the available content space so that if the first web page is displayed on the terminal associated with the user, the selected content is displayed.

Abstract: An apparatus for isolating at least a portion of a tubular for use in a wellbore comprising a first, inner tubular in the form of carrier tube and a second, outer tubular in the form of protective shroud, coupled to the carrier tube. One or more aperture is provided in a wall of the carrier tube for permitting fluid transfer through the tube and one or more aperture is provided to permit fluid transfer through the shroud. A sealing layer is disposed on a surface of the shroud, the sealing layer defining a first configuration permitting fluid flow through the apertures and, on exposure to a selected reactant, adopting a second configuration to restrict fluid flow through the apertures, the sealing layer adapted to return from the second configuration to the first configuration where concentration of the selected reactant falls below a selected threshold.

Abstract: Systems and techniques for receiving transaction information at an authentication system. The transaction information may be processed using different rule sets, based on the financial instrument used for the transaction (for example, a particular credit card, debit card, bank account, brokerage account, and the like). One or more alerts may be generated and communicated to the user. The alerts may be formatted based on user device configuration information, such as a cell phone type, email type, and the like.

Abstract: The present invention provides an electronically accessible site that lists a product and associated distributors that distribute the product to customers. A customer purchases a product from the electronically accessible site, and during the purchasing process, the customer selects the distributor he wants to receive the product from. The order is received by an agent, and transmitted to the selected distributor for eventual distribution of the product to the customer. In response to the purchase, the agent and electronically accessible site receive compensation based on the amount of the purchase.
