Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to providing authentication of access while reducing user input and, specifically to a method, apparatus, and computer program product for receiving device identification information from both a secured system indicating devices with authorization and from a third party telecommunications carrier indicating the mobile device account attempting to access a service provider. Embodiments provided include an apparatus configured to receive, from a mobile device, identification information associated with the mobile device. The apparatus further comprises computing an encrypted hash of the identification information and initiating a search of a registry for a matching entry that matches the encrypted hash of the identification.

Abstract: A composite filter media includes a base sheet incorporating polymer microfibers and nano-fibrillated cellulose in combination with one or more alternative upstream depth filtration layers. Embodiments of the composite filter media employ polymer or fiberglass layers arranged on the upstream face of the base sheet. A lightweight protective spun bond scrim may be applied to the upstream face of the upstream depth filtration material. The depth filtration layer or layers may be laminated to each other and/or the base sheet or co-pleated with the base sheet to form the disclosed composite media. The depth filtration layers are configured to provide a positive density gradient in the direction of fuel flow through the composite media, meaning that the depth filtration media increases in density and decreases in pore size in the direction of fuel flow.

Abstract: Apparatus to raise a small boat and outboard motor from a position in the water to a stored position against the mother vessel with the outboard motor substantially vertical while in the storage position. The apparatus has a hinge mount that can be received on the small boat. There is a unitary mount for the outboard motor hinged to the hinge mount. A releasable lock attaches the unitary mount on the small boat to prevent hinging of the mount. There is a connector on the unitary mount remote from the hinge. A lift on the mother vessel is able to attach the connector on the unitary mount. There are abutments on the mother vessel and corresponding abutments on the small boat. These two abutments are able to engage each other to form a hinge about which the small boat can be pivoted during lifting by the lift.
