Abstract: A tamper resistant nightlight for placement in an electrical receptacle, the nightlight includes a body that has a base with an LED circuit and plug blades extending from the body. A housing includes a locking element configured to restrict a child from removing the nightlight from the electrical receptacle through a flange that extends away from the body to be positioned behind a rear surface of an electrical wall plate associated with the electrical receptacle to prevent the tamper resistant nightlight from being removed from the electrical receptacle while the electrical wall plate is coupled to the electrical receptacle.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system and methods for creating and maintaining a virtual subnetwork of telecommunication base stations within a wider telecommunication network. In an LTE-based example, the subnetwork includes a connection aggregator that is coupled between the plurality of eNodeBs internal to the subnetwork and one or more MMEs in the outer network. The connection aggregator intercepts all control plane messages between the MMEs and the internal eNodeBs, remaps eNodeB identifiers, and transmits repackaged messages so that the outer network sees the entire subnetwork as a single “giant” eNodeB. The disclosed system and methods enables the operator of the virtual subnetwork to add and shut down eNodeBs as demand for connectivity fluctuates, and to do so such that all changes are unseen by the outer network.

Abstract: A setting tool for actuating a downhole component includes an inner tubular configured to be connected in fluid communication with a borehole string, a housing configured to define a first fluid chamber and a second fluid chamber isolated from the first fluid chamber and in fluid communication with the inner tubular, and a setting piston in pressure communication with the second fluid chamber. The setting tool includes a metering module coupled to the housing and disposed at an end of the first fluid chamber, the metering module including a fluid path forming a restriction therein, and an outlet connected to the fluid path. The outlet is configured to be opened to permit fluid to flow out of the first chamber at a controlled rate to generate a differential pressure between the first and second chambers that causes the setting piston to apply a gradually increasing force on the component.

The connector can pivot about the first end of the connector.

Abstract: Gaze data collected from eye gaze tracking performed while training text was read may be used to train at least one layout interpretation model. In this way, the at least one layout interpretation model may be trained to determine current text that includes words arranged according to a layout, process the current text with the at least one layout interpretation model to determine the layout, and output the current text with the words arranged according to the layout.

Abstract: A control system provides steering control commands to a steering actuator of a steering device on a piece of towed marine equipment. A memory in the control system stores setpoint data including positional values for a desired position of the piece of towed marine equipment. A control module is configured to receive the setpoint data, receive process data representing a calculated actual position of the piece of towed marine equipment; and calculate a control command for the steering actuator of the steering device based upon the setpoint data and the process data. A disturbance adjustment calculation module is configured to combine a disturbance value based upon a measured disturbance with a value of the process data and output a disturbance adjustment value. A correction calculator module adds the disturbance adjustment value to the control command to create an adjusted control command for transmission to the steering actuator.

The method includes determining an object feature for each protection object in a set of protection objects that generate protected data, the set of protection objects including at least one protection object configured with a predetermined data protection strategy. The method further includes determining a set of candidate objects belonging to the same class as the at least one protection object from the set of protection objects according to the determined object features. The method further includes configuring the predetermined data protection strategy to at least one candidate object in the set of candidate objects.

Abstract: The embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method and apparatus for producing a carbon nanomaterial product (CNM) product that may comprise carbon nanotubes and various other allotropes of nanocarbon. The method and apparatus employ a consumable carbon dioxide (CO2) and a renewable carbonate electrolyte as reactants in an electrolysis reaction in order to make CNTs. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, operational conditions of the electrolysis reaction may be varied in order to produce the CNM product with a greater incidence of a desired allotrope of nanocarbon or a desired combination of two or more allotropes.

Abstract: Stable, ready-to-use injectable pharmaceutical compositions are provided, comprising the combination of neostigmine, glycopyrrolate, and a pharmaceutically acceptable liquid vehicle, optionally with additional pharmaceutically acceptable excipients. Other aspects of the invention relate to methods for making such compositions and methods of using such compositions for reversing the effects of non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents. Preferably, the composition comprises neostigmine methylsulfate, glycopyrronium bromide, and a pharmaceutically acceptable liquid vehicle, and is provided in a pre-filled, ready-to-use sealed container, such as a pre-filled syringe, suitable for intravenous administration.

Abstract: Techniques are described for expanding and/or improving the Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) 3.0 television protocol in robustly delivering the next generation broadcast television services. ATSC 3.0 applications may be launched based on partial validation, e.g., as soon as one level of validation passes, with ensuing layers being authenticated as the application commences launch and with launch being stopped if any layer fails validation.

Abstract: The mechanical shaft lock can include one or more shear pins. When an end of the shear pin, e.g., shear pin head, lines up with one or more shearing slots on the MSL or pump shaft, the shear pin engages and stops the rotation of the pump shaft and motor attached to the pump. The shaft lock can be engaged for installing an ESP, disengaged for production after installing by breaking the shear pin upon start-up, and re-engaged for removing the ESP from the wellbore. In some embodiments, the MSL may be configured to be disengaged and re-engaged to deal with well kicks.
