Abstract: Embodiments of a security and identity verification system are disclosed. The security and identity verification system may comprise a system that conducts automated identify verification of tax filers and generates electronic alerts to send to tax filers upon filing of a tax form with a tax service provider. The tax fraud alert system may also provide remediation services in coordination with tax service providers in the event a fraudulent form is filed; and/or validate tax identity information and the corresponding good or best tax filer contact information in order to notify the tax filer in a timely manner.

Abstract: Embodiments of various systems and methods described herein provide an identity security database analytics system which is configured to provide security alerts to a user. The security alerts can include for personalized metrics related to potential identity theft incidents. The personalized metrics can include user specific information on security breaches of the user's personal information as well as depersonalized statistics generated based on information of other users having one or more similar characteristics of the user.

Abstract: Provided are compounds, compositions and methods for improving resistance to skeletal muscle fatigue comprising administering an effective amount of a skeletal muscle troponin activator. Also provided are methods for improving resistance to fatigue, improving physical endurance, or reducing exercise intolerance in a subject suffering from a condition associated with muscle fatigue or weakness, such as heart failure.

Abstract: Methods using a combination of metabolomics and computer technology to determine sequence variants with potential negative or detrimental effects and enable the classification of a variant with an unknown or uncertain clinical significance from VUS status to benign, pathogenic or advantageous are described. For example, methods of using metabolomics to expedite personalized medicine based on genomic sequence analysis are described. Using metabolic profiles to determine (or aid in determining) the significance of genetic variants and enable the identification of diagnostic variants (those variants having a detrimental health affect) for use in personalized medicine is described. Further, using metabolic profiles to determine the presence of advantageous variants that may have a positive effect on patient health is also described.

Abstract: A plug-in connector for connecting to a receptacle includes a housing including tripping structures, electrically conductive terminals partly situated in the housing, latches arranged in the housing, and a slider slidingly coupled to the housing, and further includes blocking structures and trippable structures extending in a mating direction and that cooperate with the tripping structures, and a spring that urges the slider outward away from the housing in the mating direction. The tripping structures are situated to engage with the trippable structures during an initial stage of relative movement between the housing and slider against the spring bias while inward deflection of the latches is allowed. The blocking structures of the slider prevent inward deflection of the latches after a final stage of the relative movement between the housing and slider, and the connector has an electrically interconnected state only when in the final stage.

Abstract: A test apparatus features an upper RF impermeable hood and lower RF impermeable hood, wherein each of the hoods have internal dividers. When in a closed position, the hoods and dividers create two or more RF impermeable chambers. The hoods are configured to enclose or sandwich a pallet supporting two or more printed circuit boards. One of the printed circuit boards is disposed in each chamber formed by the hoods and dividers.

Abstract: A plug-in connector for connecting to a receptacle including a housing including fins, at least one electrically conductive terminal at least partly situated in the housing and defining a mating axis and a mating direction, cantilevered locking beams arranged in the housing, a slider slidingly coupled to the housing and including blocking beams extending in the mating direction, a compressive member arranged to urge the slider outward away from the housing in the mating direction. The fins are situated to engage with the blocking beams during an initial stage of relative movement between the housing and the slider against a bias of the compressive member and allow inward deflection of the locking beams. The blocking beams are configured to prevent inward deflection of the locking beams after a final stage of the relative movement between the housing and the slider.
