Abstract: Various embodiments for providing a narrative summary for fantasy games are described. Embodiments may include a summary engine executing on a logic device. The summary engine may select a beat writer and a story type. The summary writer may select new content from one or more databases of fantasy league data. The beat writer may affect what story type is selected. The summary engine may construct a master template according to the story type that has empty slots. The summary engine may fill the empty slots of the master template with data from the new content to generate a narrative summary, and publish the narrative template with the slots filled. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: An application development center system is described. A method may comprise receiving an application at a server computing device; accessing test data from one or more data sources; testing the application within a development environment resident on the server computing device utilizing the test data; and presenting test results on a user interface accessible by a client computing device. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: A fantasy server application may comprise a platform generator component to generate a resource document with a host segment arranged to present a host resource document and a guest segment arranged to present a guest resource document, a host manager component to send a request to generate the host resource document with fantasy content from a fantasy content database to a host server program, receive a response with the host resource document, and add the host resource document to the host segment, and a guest manager component to generate a guest reference for use by a client device, the guest reference arranged to refer the client device to a guest server program arranged to generate the guest resource document with fantasy content from the fantasy content database, and add the guest reference to the guest server program to the guest segment. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: A safety method is provided for use with control systems for vehicles such as trucks, and in particular for electromechanical controls (10) that assist the driver in shifting the gears (12), operating the clutch (16), and in actuating the throttle (22, 24, 26) by remote control. The method, which is for use in a vehicle's throttle-actuator subsystem (26A), utilizes a transmission control processor (42A) and a throttle control processor (42B). The method ascertains whether, when the driver of the vehicle removes his foot from the accelerator pedal (24A), control of the fuel pump (26C) returns to the idle governor as it should. The flow of fuel is stopped if it does not return properly. Also, a method is provided that monitors the throttle actuator (26A) to insure that it accurately follows throttle commands such as the position of the accelerator pedal (24A).

Abstract: There is disclosed a communication system and operating method wherein the manner in which all telephone calls are displayed at a station set allows uniform user operations to originate and terminate those calls. This is accomplished by having all calls dynamically assigned to the same set of general call appearances (buttons on a multibutton station set). There are no call appearances that are dedicated to specific call types. This allows the station set user to perform the same set of operations on all calls by using the same sequence of physical operations independent of the type of call. Additionally, the system may reserve one call appearance button at a station set for special use.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an apparatus for attachment to a conventional welding torch which provides a support and a template for cutting portions of arcs or full arcs. The apparatus includes a nesting mechanism and constraint for retaining the torch cutting assembly and an adjustable template for causing the cutting torch tip to translate in a circular fashion. Various adjustments are provided for changing the radius of the circle and correcting for out of round conditions by means of a vernier.
