Abstract: A drive device includes a first member including a first shoulder, and a second member positioned in close proximity to the first member and including a second shoulder. The device also includes a coupling arrangement including a strut having a first edge for direct engagement with the first shoulder, a second edge for engagement with the second shoulder and supported for pivotal movement between engaged and overrun positions, based on relative rotation of the first and second members such that the first member drives the second member in a drive mode with the strut in the engaged position and the first and second members can overrun with respect to one another with the strut in the overrun position. The coupling arrangement also includes a cushioning member disposed between the second edge and the second shoulder for cushioning each initial engagement of the strut in the drive mode.

Abstract: A technique for encrypting and decrypting a data message is described herein and includes a stream cipher, a block cipher, and IV generation embodiment and a key generation embodiment which use a process of Summary Reduction. This overall technique uses a secret key to generate ciphertext from plaintext and in doing so, the technique isolates the nature of the secret key values from the nature of the cipher text created.
