Abstract: A qualifying system receives a channel activity record from one of a plurality of different external systems, over one of a plurality of different communication channels. It accesses qualification rules to determine whether the channel activity record is to be transformed into one or more target entities in a computing system. If so, a conversion engine accesses user-configurable mappings and conversion rules to identify conversion actions that are to be taken in order to transform the channel activity record into one or more target entities. The conversion engine performs a data transformation on the channel activity record to transform it into the identified one or more target entities.

Abstract: An approach for configuring macro buttons for voice system activation in an alarm system by an alarm system operator that simplifies application of multiple activation and deactivation voice messages during fire alarm events and mass notification events.

Abstract: An access control system and a method of operating the same are provided. The access control system includes an interactive reader commander that intercepts commands transmitted from a computing device to a reader and determines if the intercepted commands are security-relevant. Security-relevant commands and possibly other commands are stored unless and until a valid user input is received at the interactive reader commander.

Abstract: Erotic toy for stimulating erogenous zones of the body, consisting of a hollow, waterproof housing in the shape of a heart with convex surfaces that floats in water, equipped with a vibrator and internal lighting whereby the vibrations of the vibrator can be continuous or pulsed.

Abstract: A portable authentication system includes a security module, that may be a smart card, SIM (Subscriber Identity Module), USB controller with a secure chip, or similar module capable of storing one or more credentials, and an interface module such as a digital badge holder that is able to communicate with the security module, for instance by providing a smart card communication interface. The portable authentication system may be either a single integrated system or a dual system where the security module can be removed or disconnected from the interface system.

Abstract: A secure and transparent digital credential sharing arrangement which utilizes one or more cryptographic levels of indirection to obfuscate a sharing entity's credentials from those entities authorized to share the credentials. A security policy table is provided which allows the sharing entity to selectively authorize or revoke digital credential sharing among a plurality of entities. Various embodiments of the invention provide for secure storage and retrieval of digital credentials from security tokens such as smart cards. The secure sharing arrangement may be implemented in hierarchical or non-hierarchical embodiments as desired.

Abstract: A power tool includes a housing assembly having a housing portion and an arm extending upwardly from the housing portion. The arm has an outer surface. The power tool also includes a drive unit supported by the arm. The drive unit is operable to drive a tool element to work on a work piece. The power tool further includes a collection assembly operable to collect debris generated by the tool element working on the work piece. The collection assembly includes a collection chute assembly having an inlet and an outlet. The collection chute assembly is positionable on the arm to define, between the inlet and the outlet, a first path for debris around one side of the outer surface of the arm and a second path for debris around the other side of the outer surface of the arm.

Abstract: A saw, such as a chop saw, a miter saw, a sliding saw, a compound miter saw, etc. In some constructions, the saw may include a miter adjustment assembly including a coarse adjustment assembly and a fine adjustment assembly. In some constructions, the saw may include a bevel adjustment assembly including a brake mechanism and a bevel detent assembly. In some constructions, the saw may include a dust collection assembly including a dust chute defining a dust both around the bevel arm. In some constructions, the saw may include a table having a top wall with a peripheral rim and a side wall depending from the top wall, and a base defining an opening in which the side wall is received and a ledge above which the rim is positioned. In some constructions, the saw may include elastomeric material covering a portion of the base, such as a bottom surface, a lateral surface, a grip surface, etc.

Abstract: A system is used for authorizing access to a Personal Security Device. This system comprises a Personal Security Device 75 and another device 105 which is in functional communication with said Personal Security Device. Said Personal Security Device comprises identification information retrieval data and a biometric authentication application 200 which transfers said identification information retrieval data to said other device 105 in response to an identified match between biometric data sent by said other device and a predetermined biometric reference. Said other device 105 comprises a security executive application 230 for retrieving an Identification Information with at least said identification information retrieval data, thus generating a retrieved Identification Information, and transferring said retrieved Identification Information to said Personal Security Device 75.

Abstract: A cart includes a cart frame having a wall and a wheel connected to the cart frame, which is operable to support the cart for movement over the ground. The cart also includes a reel rack assembly coupled to the wall. The reel rack assembly has a pair of support brackets coupled to the wall in a spaced apart relationship, whereby each support bracket includes a support arm extending outwardly from the support bracket such that the support arms are generally aligned with each other. A shaft is selectively supported by the support arms and extends between the support arms wherein reels are removably positionable on the shaft.
