Abstract: A dog paw washing and rinsing device is shown and described. The dog paw washing and rinsing device includes a first chamber which includes at least one sidewall rising from a base to an open top edge. A second chamber which includes at least one sidewall rising from a base to an open top edge. The first chamber is coupled to the second chamber such that the first chamber is adjacent to the second chamber. A handle is attached to both the first chamber and the second chamber. A cleaning pad is located within the first chamber. The cleaning pad is placed at an angle as compared to the base of the first chamber.

Abstract: A method comprises selecting a starting point on a map of equalization coefficients and measuring an eye height of a signal transmitted using the set of equalization coefficients associated with the starting point and an eye height associated with each adjacent point on the map relative to the starting point. The eye height associated with an adjacent point is based on a signal transmitted using the set of equalization coefficients associated with the adjacent point. The method also comprises walking on the map in a first direction from the starting point to the adjacent point associated with the greatest eye height, wherein the eye height associated with the adjacent point is greater than or equal to the eye height associated with the starting point.

Abstract: In a system according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, the system comprises a first device, a second device, a communications link, and a memory. The memory stores instructions that when executed by the system perform a method of communications link training. This method comprises requesting a speed change to a second speed for the first device communicating with the second device at a first speed via the communications link. A saved set of parameters are accessed for at least one of the first device and the second device. A first training cycle is performed for the first device and the second device at the second speed using the saved set of parameters for the at least one of the first device and second device. The reuse of parameters from a previous successful equalization training cycle reduces the time required to perform equalization training.

Abstract: A system configured to disseminate health care information of a patient to individuals to encourage increased patient compliance and improved patient outcome, where the system may include a secure server that enables the individuals to access this information.

Abstract: A method and system for enabling communication between a health care professional and a patient are disclosed. In an embodiment, the method includes authenticating a health care professional on the health care platform implemented in a mobile communication device and recording a memo associated with a patient by the authenticated health care professional via said health care platform, memo including health care related information associated with the patient.

Abstract: In an apparatus according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, a communications link comprises a first device and a second device communicating with each other via the communications link at a plurality of different speeds. However, prior to communicating via the communications link for the first time at a second speed, the first device and second device complete a first training cycle at the second speed. Further, during this first training cycle for the second speed, the first training cycle for the second speed will pause before the first training cycle at the second speed completes, and the first device and second device communicate at a first speed for a period of time before returning to the paused first training cycle at the second speed. When the paused first training cycle for the second speed continues, the first training cycle for the second speed will continue where it had paused.

Abstract: A method comprises performing a first pass test over a plurality of sets of equalization coefficients to filter the plurality of sets of equalization coefficients to produce one or more filtered sets of equalization coefficients. Each filtered set of equalization coefficients meets a first predetermined threshold. The method also comprises performing a second pass test over the one or more filtered sets of equalization coefficients to determine a final set of equalization coefficients that meets a second predetermined threshold. The second pass test produces more accurate results than the first pass test.
