Abstract: A surface cleaner configured to distribute a liquid to a surface to be cleaned. The surface cleaner includes a supply tank, a fluid distributor, a suction inlet aperture, a recovery tank and a tool removably connectable to the surface cleaner and configured to direct fluid from the fluid distributor into the suction inlet aperture to rinse the suction inlet aperture.

Abstract: A method implemented on an electronic computing device for verifying a re-inspection of a property includes receiving data regarding the inspection of the property. A determination is made from the data whether requirements for the inspection have been met. When a determination is made that one or more requirements of the inspection have not been met, a determination is made whether a virtual re-inspection is possible. When a determination is made that the virtual re-inspection is possible, one or more photographs are received at the electronic computing device corresponding to the virtual re-inspection. A determination is made from the one or more photographs whether the virtual re-inspection has been successfully completed.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a change data monitoring system may gather change data from multiple data sources each with a different proprietary source format. The change data monitoring system may receive a change data report having a change data set describing changes made to an online system from a data source of a data source set tracking the online system using multiple proprietary source formats. The change data monitoring system may convert the change data set from a proprietary source format to a standardized data presentation format. The change data monitoring system may present the change data set to a user in the standardized data presentation format.

Abstract: Reinforced textile wheel arch liners including a reinforced textile wheel arch liner comprised of a base layer and a reinforcing layer. The base layer and reinforcing layers are comprised at least partially of a thermoformable textile material and disposed upon and bonded to at least part of the base layer. In some examples, the base layer and reinforcing layer are formed separately. In some further examples, the reinforcing layer can be formed as part of the base layer in a single die that would otherwise be off-cut.

Abstract: Publishing of content on digital signage includes supplying a content, suitable for publication on digital signage, to a platform from a source arranged in association with the platform; trafficking the content from the platform to the digital signage by means of a feed; publishing the content on the digital signage; providing a folder at the digital signage comprising the content; generating a summary file at the platform related to a new content and forwarding the summary file to the digital signage. The summary file may be used to identify and select new and/or updated parts of new content by comparison with the content stored in the folder. Selected parts of new content are sent to the platform via the feed and only the new and/or updated parts of the new content to the digital signage are trafficked according to the selection.

Abstract: Example apparatus and methods manage membership in a collection of servers participating in providing a service. An example device may provide a user interface that provides a single coherent view of the in-service state (e.g., in-service, out-of-service) of members of the collection of servers. The example device may also provide a request monitor that selectively blocks a membership request to a target device when the membership request will cause the set of functionalities to be suspended. If a service manager tries to take the only in-service server out-of-service, the action may be selectively blocked and the service manager may receive a notification of the potential result of the action. Taking a server out-of-service may include stopping messages from flowing to the server.

Abstract: Aviation gasolines having an enhanced peak indicated mean effective pressure are provided by admixing with a leaded base aviation gasoline an aromatic amine of the formula NH2—Ar—(R1)n wherein R1 is selected from C1-C10 alkyl, halogen, and mixtures thereof provided that when R1 is alkyl it occupies the meta- or para-positions on the aromatic ring, Ar is a phenyl aromatic group and n is an integer from 0 to 3 to provide an aviation gasoline having a peak indicated mean effective pressure as determined by ASTM D-909 of greater than about 200 psi.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an unleaded aminated aviation gasoline of high motor octane number (MON) and low toluene insoluble deposit formation containing an additive for controlling said deposits selected from the group consisting of high molecular weight hydrocarbyl amines, high molecular weight hydrocarbyl succinimide, high molecular weight hydrocarbyl substituted Mannish bases, and mixtures thereof, and optional carrier oil(s), to an additive concentrate for controlling toluene insoluble deposits, and to a method for producing the additive concentrate.

The disclosed photoresists are preferably chemical amplification photoresists and contain a photosensitizer having the structure of formula (I): where Ar1 and Ar2 are independently selected from monocyclic aryl and monocyclic heteroaryl, R1 and R2 may be the same or different, and have the structure —X—R3 where X is O or S and R3 is C1-C6 hydrocarbyl or heteroatom-containing C1-C6 hydrocarbyl, and R4 and R5 are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and —X—R3, or, if ortho to each other, may be taken together to form a five- or six-membered aromatic ring, with the proviso that any heteroatom contained within Ar1, Ar2, or R3 is O or S. The use of the disclosed photoresists, particularly for the manufacture of holographic diffraction gratings, is also disclosed.
