Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for processing search results. In one aspect, a transition from a first search result environment to a second, different search result environment is done in a manner that preserves the user experience of focusing on a selected search result. The transition can be facilitated by an intermediate search result environment that appears during the transition from the first search result environment to the second search result environment. The intermediate search result environment displays search result data of a search result that was selected in the first search result environment. The search result data that is displayed is, for example, data that was provided for display in the first search result environment. For example, in the case of image search results, the search result data that is displayed is a thumbnail image of the image search result.

Abstract: A head stack assembly (HSA) for a disk drive includes an actuator body, at least one actuator arm extending from the actuator body, and a flexible printed circuit (FPC). The FPC includes first and second pluralities of electrically conductive FPC traces, each having a distal portion that terminates at a respective one of a plurality of FPC bond pads. The HSA also includes a head gimbal assembly (HGA) having a laminate flexure with a plurality of electrically conductive flexure bond pads that are bonded to the plurality of FPC bond pads. A width of at least one of the first plurality of FPC traces is greater than a width of at least one of the second plurality of FPC traces. The distal portion of at least one of the first plurality FPC traces includes a first opening therethrough, for example less than 1 mm from its corresponding FPC bond pad.

Abstract: A composition formulated to form a non-smooth surface on a substrate surface at least after the composition has been applied to the substrate and has substantially dried or set. The composition including a first and second set of colloidal particles. Each of the first and second sets of colloidal particles includes a plurality of colloidal particles. The first set of colloidal particles can have an average particle size that is greater than the average size of the second set of particles. The number of colloidal particles in the second set of colloidal particles can be greater than the number of colloidal particles in the first set of colloidal particles. One or more of the colloidal particles can be modified to include one or more hydrocarbon chains.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses for ways of testing tags are provided. In an aspect of the present invention, an antenna is mounted in a cavity of a surface. The antenna transmits a test signal, such as a radio frequency (RF) test signal, to the antenna of an adjacent tag, to test the adjacent tag. In aspects, multiple cavities having antennas may be arranged in various ways in the surface, such as in a “checkerboard pattern” (e.g., diagonally positioned from each other), to test multiple tags in a web of tags simultaneously. In another aspect, tags that are not being tested may be held at an electrical voltage, such as a ground voltage, to disable the tags from responding to the test signals of other tags. For example, in an aspect, a vacuum system may be used to hold tags in a web of tags to the surface to hold antennas of the tags at the electrical voltage.

Abstract: A software program on the computer system is represented by an icon, which is displayed to a user within one of several available icon-level graphical user interfaces (GUIs) of the operating system (OS). In addition to the standard icon displayed in the icon-level GUI, a license status symbol is associated/affiliated with the icon. The license status symbol indicates the license status of the particular application, from among shareware, un-licensed, valid license, expired license, expiring license, time to license expiration, and/or evaluation license. Each different license status is represented by a unique/identifiable license status symbol, and each application existing in one of these license status on the computer system are represented by its icon and associated/affiliated license status symbol. By viewing the icon and associated/affiliates license status symbol, a user is able to identify the specific license state of the application without having to open/run the application.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, and computer instructions for a communications device transferring data. A signal strength is received for a communications link used to transfer data to a destination. In response to the signal strength less than a threshold, the data is cached in the communications device to form cached data. In response to a loss and reestablishment of the communications link, the cached data is sent to the destination.
