Abstract: A pipe belt system comprising one or more thermoplastic elastomeric (TPE) layers and a reinforcement layer is disclosed. The one or more thermoplastic elastomeric (TPE) layers have a first modulus of elasticity and a first stiffness and formed across a width of the belt. The reinforcement layer is formed proximate to the one or more TPE layers and has a second modulus of elasticity and a second stiffness. The pipe belt is configured to have an open state where the belt is substantially flat and a closed state where the belt is formed having a circular shape and partially overlaps itself. The pipe belt has a combined modulus of elasticity based on the first modulus of elasticity and the second modulus of elasticity and a combined stiffness based on the first stiffness and the second stiffness.

Abstract: Described herein are heterocyclic azide-containing monomer units, copolymers comprising such heterocyclic azide-containing monomer units, substrate-bound copolymers, and oligonucleotide-bound copolymers, methods for making such copolymers and reacting them with a substrate and/or oligonucleotide, and methods of using such copolymers for immobilization of oligonucleotides to a substrate, for example for use in DNA sequencing or other diagnostic applications.

Abstract: One example method of operation may include identifying a call from a caller and destined for a callee, receiving a data message associated with the call, forwarding the data message to a call processing server, processing the data message to identify one or more call parameters, comparing the one or more call parameters to an active call scam model applied by the call processing server, determining a scam score for the call based on the comparing of the one or more call parameters to the active call scam model applied by the call processing server, and determining whether to notify the callee that the call is a scam based on the scam score.

Abstract: A capacitor assembly and a method of making the capacitor assembly. The capacitor assembly includes: a power cable including first and second electrical conductors; a motor cable including first, second, and third electrical conductors, the first electrical conductor of the motor cable electrically connected to the first electrical conductor of the power cable, and the second electrical conductor of the motor cable electrically connected to the second electrical conductor of the power cable; a capacitor connected to the first electrical conductors and to the third electrical conductor; and a cover enclosing the capacitor, ends of the first conductors of the power cable and the motor cable connected to the capacitor, and an end of the third conductor connected to the capacitor, the first connection, and the second connection, and wherein after installation the capacitor assembly has an arcuate shape with a concave surface facing the pipe.

Abstract: A computer server receives office equipment rules of an organization. The office equipment rules include office equipment configuration settings. The computer server configures at least one office equipment application that satisfies the office equipment rules. The computer server supplies the office equipment application to at least one computerized device of at least one user associated with the organization. In return, the computer server receives an equipment/supplies order from the office equipment application. In response, the computer server generates order instructions. The order instructions include a list of equipment/supplies and the office equipment configuration settings for components on the list of equipment/supplies. The order instructions are generated to comply with the office equipment rules. Then, the computer server transmits the order instructions to a delivery and setup agent who delivers, configures, and sets up the equipment/supplies according to the order instructions.

Abstract: Methods and systems for printing on a print device from both authorized users and guest users are disclosed. The methods include configuring the print device to execute document processing jobs from both authorized users and guest users based on a rule set. The method also includes receiving a request to initiate a document processing session on the print device, initiating the kiosk mode session for executing paid document processing jobs by outputting a kiosk mode user interface that is configured to allow the guest user to submit requests for paid document processing jobs, receiving a request for executing a document processing job via the kiosk mode user interface, causing the print device to execute the document processing job, and causing a payment processing service associated with the guest user to render payment for executing the document processing job.

Abstract: A display device is connected to the exterior of a document processing device. The display device includes a screen positioned to display in a first direction away from the exterior. Lights are connected to the display device. The lights are positioned to emit light in second direction toward the exterior of the document processing device. A processor is operatively connected to the display device and the lights. The processor is adapted to control the lights to emit corresponding lighting of a graphic item appearing on the screen.
