Abstract: A connection to releasably connect and disconnect to a pipe to a fitting provides a pipe fitting body for receiving a pipe and a retaining ring located within the fitting body for retaining and releasing the pipe. The retaining ring has axially extending resilient retaining tabs, each of which has a radially inwardly extending portion for engaging the pipe, and, a radially outwardly extending portion which extends through corresponding radial openings in the fitting body. When the pipe is inserted into the fitting body to an inserted position and the retaining ring is in the first locked axial position, the radially inwardly extending portions engage and retain the pipe in the inserted position.

Abstract: An access door may include a core, first and second stiles defined along opposites sides of the core such that the core between the first and second stiles defines a recessed pocket with each of the first and second stiles defining a channel therein extending longitudinally along an inwardly-facing edge thereof, bottom and top elongated panels each defining tongue members at opposite sides thereof and configured to be received transversely in the recessed pocket with the tongue members received within the channels defined along the inwardly-facing edges of the first and second stiles, wherein, with the top and bottom elongated panels received in the recessed pocket, exterior faces of the first and second stiles, exterior faces of the top and bottom elongated panels, and an exposed surface of the recessed pocket between the top and bottom elongated panels define an exterior surface of one side of the door.

Abstract: A frame extending from a first end to a second with a curved portion therebetween has a first dual hooking member at the first end and a second dual hooking member at the second end. Each dual hooking member has a strap hook, facing away from their respective ends, and an external hook, facing toward their respective ends. The strap hooks engage selected holes in a resilient elastomeric strap to bias the first end to the second end across a gap therebetween to frictionally hold the frame to a user's forehead. While the frame is frictionally held to the user's forehead, the external hooks extend externally from the strap to engage opposed strings of a face mask on the users face, and, a visor can be releasably secured to the frame in a visor functional position with a see-through area in front of the user's eyes.

Abstract: A connection to releasably connect and disconnect to a pipe to a fitting provides a pipe fitting body for receiving a pipe and a retaining ring located within the fitting body for retaining and releasing the pipe. The retaining ring has axially extending resilient retaining tabs, each of which has a radially inwardly extending portion for engaging the pipe, and, a radially outwardly extending portion which extends through corresponding radial openings in the fitting body. When the pipe is inserted into the fitting body to an inserted position and the retaining ring is in the first locked axial position, the radially inwardly extending portions engage and retain the pipe in the inserted position.

Abstract: A multiprocessor computer system and method for use therein are provided for assigning processes to processor nodes. The system can determine a first pair of processes and a second pair of processes, each process of the first pair of processes executing on different nodes and each process of the second pair of processes executing on different nodes. The system can determine a first priority value of the first pair of processes, based at least in part on a first resource access rate of the first pair of processes; and determine a second priority value of the second pair of processes, based at least in part on a second resource access rate of the second pair of processes. The system can determine the first priority value is greater than the second priority value; and determine to reassign a first process of the first pair of processes to a first node, wherein a second process of the first pair of processes is executing on the first node.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for dynamically generating media trailers for communication over a network. A request for a dynamically generated media trailer is received by a computing environment over the network. Clips are extracted from media files or previews associated with the media files according to media titles in lists and/or tags identified by a user. A customized media trailer is generated by coalescing the clips extracted from the media file or a preview associated with the media file according to a determined order. The media trailer is communicated to one or more client device over the network.
