Abstract: A modular ring includes a harness and at least one ornament. The harness may include a pair of struts and at least one U-shaped section. Each U-shaped section may have a pair of legs and a first arcuate portion coupling the pair of legs to one another. Each one of the pair of struts may be coupled to a respective one of the pair legs. The at least one ornament may have a head and a second arcuate portion, with the head of each ornament defining notches. The pair of struts may be releasably securable in the notches in an orientation in which the first arcuate portion of each U-shaped section of the harness and the second arcuate portion of each ornament collectively form a band positionable about a finger of a wearer with the head of each ornament facing away from the finger.

Abstract: A network device that operates as an analysis platform for analysis of event data records that can provide a flexible approach to event data record aggregation. For example, aggregation can be flexibly turned on or off and dynamically adjusted based on event record volume and other factors such as network capacity or throughput. Devices that are instructed to aggregate records can also be instructed to archive the raw records, e.g., to maintain a full fidelity log of events. Devices can further be instructed to utilize a mixed queue approach to determine an order to deliver those records that includes both older records and newer records.

Abstract: An apparatus for applying a helical cladding bead to the interior surface of a pipe elbow has a rotor mounted to an elbow carriage so as to be rotatable about a primary axis. The elbow carriage is longitudinally movable parallel to the rotor's rotational axis. A radially-movable elbow collar is mounted to the rotor, and has means for mounting a first end of a pipe elbow. The second end of the elbow passes through a stationary frame with centering means for keeping the elbow's curved centerline tangential to the primary axis. A weld arm, extending from a weld arm carriage into the second end of the elbow, is sinuously configured so that it will not interfere with the elbow. The weld arm is rotatable about the primary axis in coordination with the rotor. A weld head is mounted at the extending end of the weld arm so as to remain spatially fixed regardless of rotation of the weld arm.

Abstract: A plurality of identical wall panels connected together by removable rods driven through holes in adjacent corners of adjacent panels and into the ground. The device includes a cover which is shaped to fit four wall panels. Also, a greater number of panels can be used. The wall panels and cover each is a molded plastic member. The entire device consists of the wall panels, the cover, and the rods.

Abstract: A device for reading and recording the sensitivity of a series of specimens wherein a test plate is inoculated with a series of specimen organisms at predetermined spaced sites thereon, incubated, and the clone at each site examined to determine whether the organism is sensitive or resistant to the test antibiotic or positive or negative with respect to a test biochemical having a frame, a mount for a plurality of test plates arranged in a predetermined pattern, mounting means for mounting said mount in said frame for movement along an X axis and Y axis, control means for moving said mount in said mounting means along the X axis and the Y axis, a viewing plate on said frame above said mount, a viewing system for each plate on said mount terminating in a viewing opening at said viewing plate for viewing the specimens one at a time on its respective plate in said mount, said control means being adapted to move said mount in said mounting means as aforesaid with preset sequential incremental movements to move ea
