Abstract: A cable drum transportation and handling apparatus for mounting, transporting and handling large cable drums includes a supporting structure, which supporting structure may be mounted on a truck or trailer. The apparatus includes stabilizers mounted to the supporting structure, a hydraulics control system and an operator station, a gravity drive having a drive wheel tire for turning the drum to spool cable in or out, and a hydraulic drive system for the gravity drive. An adjustable mechanism ensures firm connection between the tire and a cable drum, when a drum is mounted on the apparatus. A lever arm or bolt pattern puts more or less tension on the gravity drive, for engagement, by moving the drive up and down. Opposing hydraulically-operated lift arms pivotally mounted on an upper part of the supporting structure may be pivoted outwardly and rearwardly. The lift arms laterally close to grasp the drum.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses and methods may provide for an earpiece that includes an audio subsystem and a longitudinal housing that is bendable between a substantially straight shape and a substantially curved shape. The longitudinal housing may contain the audio subsystem and include a flexible material. Additionally, a speaker may be coupled to the audio subsystem and positioned at an end of the longitudinal housing. In one example, the earpiece also includes a controller coupled to the flexible material, wherein the controller generates one or more control signals that cause the flexible material to automatically complete a bend of the longitudinal housing to the substantially curved shape.

Abstract: An interactive television program guide is provided in which advertisements may be displayed on program guide screens. Banner advertisements may be displayed above and below program listings. Panel advertisements may be provided adjacent to program listings. The advertisements may contain video. The advertisements may be used to promote television programs and conventional goods and services. When a user selects an advertisement, the program guide provides the user with an opportunity to order products or services, request information, set reminders for upcoming programs, view program descriptions, record programs, or take other such actions. Embedded advertisements may be provided within the program listings region and may be automatically displayed immediately adjacent to related program listings.

Abstract: A program guide system in which an interactive television program guide is implemented at least partially on user television equipment receives program listings data and real-time data such as sports scores, news data, etc. The real-time data may be stored in a database maintained by the program guide, so that the program guide may access the stored real-time data at a later time. Updated program listings information may be provided to the program guide as part of the data stream in which the real-time data is provided. Unique keys may be generated for the program listings data and real-time data associated with each live event. The keys may be compared at the program guide to determine which program listings correspond to which items of real-time data. Different types of real-time data may be assigned different expiration times. When data has expired it may be removed from the database.

Abstract: A device for compressing the chest of a cardiac arrest victim.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds and compositions for the inhibition of NAMPT, their synthesis, applications and antidotes.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to methods including obtaining a location data of a source; obtaining at least one performance measure; correlating the location data and the at least one performance measure to obtain a correlation; and analyzing the correlation to obtain an analysis report. The present disclosure is further directed to systems that include a source related to a contact center, and a processor configured to: obtain a location data of the source; derive at least one performance measure; correlate the location data and the at least one performance measure to obtain a correlation; and analyze the correlation to obtain an analysis report.

Abstract: A tank for transporting fluids on a truck chassis includes a front wall, side walls, a back wall, a top, and a floor. Interior stairs extend from the floor to an opening in the top to allow stair access into the interior with integrated safety handrails on the fill port cover. Stair toe kicks act as internal transverse baffles to help control fluid motion and surging. The stairs also act as a structural stiffener between longitudinal baffles. Horizontal baffles assist in controlling fluid motion and surging. Formed baffles provide strength and stiffness. A baffle interlocking system improves joint integrity and aids manufacturing. Formed outer skins provide structural strength for the tank. Ports located in front and rear bulkheads may be used for tank ventilation or, depending on local safety codes, as secondary access points. Doors or other access openings may be located in the tank bulkheads to provide better interior access.
