Abstract: The invention discloses a fish tank or aquarium filter assembly system that utilizes a plurality of stacked and compressed disc filters with a plurality of cross-sectional grooves for filtering debris in the fish tank, eliminates the need to use common fabrics such as socks as the filtering technique, and utilizes the pattern of grooves on the disc filters to be arranged in a pattern that filters debris in a more efficient manner than existing filters.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing a container network interface (CNI) specification that has been modified with a set of annotations, a set of operations, and a set of policies to provide network configuration reuse, network configuration replication, and database management (garbage collection) functionality are described. In response to receiving a request to initiate a function, whether the function is to be reused or replicated may be determined. In response to determining that the function is to be reused, calling a container network interface (CNI) plugin with a first operation that decouples database functions from network functions, so that the database can cache and reuse a network configuration generated for the function. In response to determining that the function is to be replicated, calling the CNI plugin with a second operation to create the network configuration and generate and store a template of the network configuration in the database.

Abstract: A media player includes an improved render process that synchronizes seeking operations with frame rendering. A media player receives a first input selecting a first location of a media segment. The thread executes a call to a dynamic renderer to render a first frame corresponding to the first location. The thread initiates a thread block to prevent further calls to the dynamic renderer while rendering the first frame. The media player then receives a second input selecting a second location of the media segment before the dynamic renderer finishes rendering the first frame. When the dynamic renderer finishes rendering the first frame, the thread blocking terminates, and the media player discards the now stale rendered first frame. The thread then executes a call requesting rendering of a frame corresponding to the second, current location of the media segment.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods and compositions for the stimulation of immune responses and for treating or preventing allergic disease and responses and inflammatory disease and responses. In particular, the present invention provides nanoemulsion compositions and methods of using the same for the induction of immune responses that prevent or treat allergic disease by reducing allergic response. Compositions and methods of the invention find use in, among other things, clinical (e.g. therapeutic and preventative medicine (e.g., vaccination)) and research applications.

Abstract: A torch having an adjustable length. The torch may include a first housing portion and a second housing portion. The second housing portion may be slidably coupled to the first housing portion. The second housing portion may be configured to slide along a longitudinal direction of the torch to adjust a length of the torch.

Abstract: A system receives a vehicle transport instruction for transporting a vehicle. The system instructs display of an indicator related to the transport instruction, using a first vehicle output. Further, the system determines whether a vehicle is in a state designated for alert notification based on at least a transportation error detected by the vehicle and changes at least one of the first vehicle output or a second vehicle output to indicate the transportation error responsive to detection of the transportation error by the vehicle.

Abstract: A vehicle automatically engages a transportation security mode responsive to a vehicle location corresponding to a location predefined for engagement of the security mode. The vehicle also determines that the vehicle has begun movement, and that a characteristic of the movement corresponds to a trigger for a security action designated for the location predefined for engagement of the security mode. The vehicle, based on the movement, characteristic, and location predefined for engagement of the security mode, automatically engages the security action.

Abstract: A system and method are disclosed to provide train detection and alerts. Embodiments include monitoring train status data, detecting a presence of a train based on the train status data, capturing current train data and converting the current train data and mapping device location data from one or more mapping devices into train metrics. Embodiments estimate an arrival time of the train at a railroad crossing and a duration of the train at the railroad crossing, check the current train data for errors, apply rules to the current train data to validate the current train data and generate an alert in response to the rules being satisfied. Embodiments display the alert on the one or more mapping devices to notify one or more corresponding users of the one or more mapping devices of the presence of the train.

Abstract: A torch having first and second housing portions may contain multiple adjustment features such as an adjustable length, an adjustable pivot angle of the second housing portion, and an adjustable rotational angle of the second housing portion. The second housing portion may be both slidably and rotationally coupled to the first housing portion. The second housing portion may be configured to slide along a longitudinal axis of the torch to adjust a length of the torch. The second housing portion may be further configured to rotate about the longitudinal axis of the torch to adjust the rotational orientation of the second housing portion with respect to the first housing portion. At least a section of the second housing portion may be configured to pivot about a transverse axis with respect to the first housing portion, the transverse axis being transverse to the longitudinal axis of the torch.
