Abstract: A system for sensing a pipe joint within a well structure bore comprises a body connectable in line with the well structure. The body has a central bore therethrough and includes a plurality of blind bores extending radially inwards from the outer surface. The system further includes at least one sleeve being locatable within one of the plurality of blind bores wherein each of the sleeves has a magnet located at an end thereof at least one sensor being locatable within one of the at least one sleeves. The at least one sensor is operable to output a signal representing the width of a metallic object located within the central bore. The system may further include a display operable to receive the output signal from the at least one sensor and to display an output to a user indicating the width of the metallic object within the central bore.

Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for caching fully buffered memory (FBM) data. A circuit card is connected to an FBM socket that is configured to receive a FBM. An interface module communicates with a memory controller and at least one FBM via the FBM socket through a plurality of electrical interfaces. A cache controller apportions memory space in the cache memory between each FBM of the at least one FBM according to an apportionment policy. A cache memory transparently stores data from the at least one FBM and the memory controller and transparently provides the data to the memory controller. The cache controller manages coherency between the at least one FBM and the cache memory.

Abstract: A lighting fixture suitable for use in a bathroom, vanity, or similar application includes an extended fixture with multiple light bulbs. The light bulbs are spaced from the fixture in such a manner that the bulbs do not lie on a single line. The back plate may have a curving portion for supporting the bulbs in a non-linear manner, or individual spacers of different lengths may be used to project the bulbs different distances from a planar backplate.

Abstract: A ceiling fan support system is provided which contains multiple, perimeter downrods connected between a ceiling fan housing and supporting structure attached to a ceiling. The perimeter rods may provide some or all of the supporting structure to suspend the ceiling fan housing. In order to accommodate sloped ceilings, the perimeter downrods may be made of adjustable length.
