Abstract: A connector includes a barrel defining a cavity. A front portion is configured to removably mate with the barrel. An electrically conductive elongated pin is positioned in the opening of the front portion and the cavity of the barrel. The pin extends through a distal end of the front portion, and the pin includes a back end for mating with an electrically conductive element. A grasping device defines an aperture therethrough for receiving the electrical element. The grasping device is disposed within the cavity of the barrel. The grasping device is in an engaged position when the barrel and the front portion are coupled for holding the electrically conductive element positioned within the aperture, and the grasping device is in a disengaged position when the barrel and the front portion are uncoupled.

Abstract: A method and system are provided for authenticating accounts on a remote server. A set of unique accounts is requested from an authentication database. After the set of accounts is requested, existing data associated with the set of accounts, such as a web site, may be deleted from the remote server. The accounts are then checked out of the authentication database by retrieving a credential associated with each account in the database. The accounts are logged into the remote server using the retrieved credentials and then logged out. After logging in, the accounts maybe authorized using an authorization database.

Abstract: A display apparatus includes a chassis frame and a housing. The housing defines a storage compartment with an inlet and an outlet for storing a plurality of display envelopes in a substantially parallel configuration. Two endless drive belts are located over corresponding pairs of roller spaced away from each other at opposing ends of the chassis frame. The endless belts each have a silicon-coated bearings face and a corresponding undulating wave spring secured to the chassis frame for urging the bearing faces of the drive belt against the surface of a display envelope while located in the presentation area. The drive belts are operable to draw the display envelope along a predetermined trajectory through the presentation area and into the inlet of the storage compartment.
