Abstract: A multi-stage configuration service running in a cloud computing environment receives a transformation request from a client device. Based on a policy identified in the transformation request, the multi-stage configuration service constructs a configuration file containing key-value pairs representing settings of a requested transformation. The settings are set or constrained in accordance with zero or more facets contained in the policy that describe how an application feature is set or constrained in performing a transformation on a source file or files. The multi-stage configuration service determines, in accordance with the policy, whether the configuration file is structurally correct in view of a user-provided overriding property value and either enqueues the configuration file for a publishing agent in the cloud computing environment to perform the requested transformation or returns an error report to the client device.

Abstract: The invention relates to a novel group of compounds of Formula (I) or salts thereof: wherein Y, Z1, Z2, R1, R4, R5 and n are as described in the specification, which may be useful in the treatment or prevention of a disease or medical condition mediated through protein kinase B (PKB) such as cancer. The invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising said compounds, methods of treatment of diseases mediated by PKB using said compounds and methods for preparing compounds of Formula (I).

Abstract: A method by which a digital display having internet capability and a memory in which an original set of digital images is stored and displayed (e.g., as a continuously running slide show) automatically pulls down new digital images across the internet from at least one remote web server so that the new digital images can be shown in place of the original set of digital images without gaining physical access to the digital display. The new digital images on the remote web server are assigned unique internet URLs that resolve to a compatible image format and correspond to internet URLs that are associated with the original set of digital images. If a new digital image has an appropriate URL, then such new digital image is retrieved by the digital display to be displayed in a place of a respective one of the original digital images. Otherwise, a predetermined default image will be displayed on the digital display.

Abstract: An advertising display apparatus comprising a base, means on the base for holding condiments, a plurality of support members on the base, each facing in a different respective direction, means for mounting at least one advertisement on each support member, means mounting the support members for movement relative to the base to change the direction in which a given advertisement faces.A hollow, transparent tube having a plurality of walls constitutes transparent cover means for enclosing and protectively covering the support members. Each support member and its respective advertisement faces a respective wall on the tube. A resilient, strip-like member is located within the tube and is resiliently deformable between an expanded, open first condition and a second condition in which it is at least partially closed for urging the advertisement toward its respective wall on the tube. The apparatus is preferably displayed on restaurant tables so that customers can view the advertisements during their meal.

Abstract: A display apparatus for displaying a plurality of advertisements comprising a base, which holds condiments and comprising a plurality of condiment holding sections separated from each other by the display apparatus, support members on the base for displaying a plurality of business cards with each of the business cards facing in a different respective direction. The cards are removably mounted and the display apparatus is mounted for movement relative to the base to change the direction in which a given business card faces. A transparent cover, removably mounted to the display apparatus, protects the business cards on the display apparatus and comprises a single integral member comprising a hollow, vertically disposed tube having four walls and having a rectangular horizontal cross-section. A plurality of vertically disposed support members or sections each facing in a different respective direction are protectively covered by the transparent tube. At least one business card is mounted to each support member.

Abstract: In a fastening for a door of a vehicle or freight container an operating bar mounted for angular movement about its axis on the door carries on at least one end a fastening member for engagement with a keeper on a door frame, and the said member has on one side of its axis a radially projecting fork for co-operation with one overhung lug projecting forwardly from the keeper, on the other side a radially projecting part for co-operation with a second forward projection on the keeper, and a radially projecting rib which, in the fully fastened condition of the mechanism, is received in a groove in the keeper between said forward projections.
