Abstract: Aspects of drop down contacts in connectors are described. An example connector includes a housing with a front port opening, a wafer assembly including terminal rows, a push bar, and a biasing component. The push bar is positioned in the housing and extends between the terminal rows. The biasing component pushes the push bar toward the front port opening of the housing and into contact with the rows of terminal conductors. The push bar maintains a minimal distance or clearance between opposing contact tips of the rows of terminal conductors even when no paddle card is inserted into the connector. When a paddle card is inserted into the front port opening, the paddle card pushes the push bar out of contact with the terminal conductors, so that the terminal conductors drop down upon contact surfaces of the paddle card.

Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed for simplifying digital content layers of an editing sequence. In particular, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems and methods comprise receiving an input including an editing sequence and a configuration for modifying the editing sequence, the editing sequence including a set of video layers, wherein a rendering of the set of video layers by a rendering engine produces a rendered video sequence, analyzing the set of video layers, including video segments present on the set of video layers, determining a first subset of the video segments present on the set of video layers relevant to the rendering of the set of video layers, determining modifications to the set of video layers of the editing sequence based on the determined first subset of the video segments and the received configuration, and automatically applying the determined modifications to the set of video layers of the editing sequence.

Abstract: A microfluidic passive plasma separation device is disclosed that provides rapid and efficient separation of optically clear plasma from whole blood. In various embodiments, the device comprises an engineered filter pad; a microfluidic capillary channel; and a plasma collection reservoir in fluidic communication, wherein separated plasma flows by capillary forces from the filter to the reservoir until the plasma in the collection reservoir provides sufficient hydrostatic head pressure to overcome the capillary forces and stop the separation even in order to prevent contamination of the separated plasma with blood cells previously trapped in the filter.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer program products are provided for editing digital audio data. In some implementations a method is provided that includes receiving digital audio data, identifying a modification to a portion of the digital audio data, and automatically correcting audio data surrounding one or more edit boundaries resulting from the identified modification including interpolating audio data from a region associated with the one or more edit boundaries.

Abstract: A detection system for a tub having a water recirculation system includes an electronic sensor and an indicator. The electronic sensor is configured to detect a condition indicative of water being present in a water recirculation system of a tub. The indicator is configured to provide a visual indication according to the detected condition.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, a computer system, or a tangible computer-readable medium storing a set of instructions for execution on a processor may operate to automatically generate and update a single property website by aggregating MLS and other real estate listing data corresponding to a property listed within the MLS. The single property website may then be used to publicize the property to attract other brokers and buyers to the property while being linked to a plurality of data sources to provide dynamic and real-time information to a buyer or other brokers for a property.

Abstract: An apparatus (10) loads partially-formed open-ended cartons (12) onto respective mandrels (14) of a turret (16) that indexes cartons through work stations. A conveyor (18) propels the partially formed cartons (12) along a load path (20) and loads them onto respective mandrels (14). A loader guide guides the partially formed cartons (12) along the load path (20) and maintains them in axial alignment with the respective mandrels (14). A loading pusher (24) carried by the conveyor (18) engages successive partially formed cartons and propels them along the loader guide and onto the mandrels (14). A controller (30) commands a loading servo motor (28) to advance the conveyor (18) and transport each partially formed carton (12) along the load path (20) and into a delivered position on one of the mandrels (14) and then to reverse the conveyor (18) momentarily before the turret (16) indexes.
