Abstract: Method, apparatus, computer programs and data structures are provided, according to at least one embodiment, wherein an author of digital content identifies at least some trusted code that the author trusts to be used to read digital content, and stores information in the unit of digital content that is capable of identifying the trusted code. In at least some embodiments, the unit of digital content is an electronic document. In other embodiments, a publisher of the trusted code, or an author of the digital content, signs the trusted code with a private key, and a certificate associated with the private key is embedded in the unit of digital content. The certificate may provide public key information associated with the private key. The public key may be used to verify that code is trusted before it is allowed access to the unit of digital content.

Abstract: Provided herein are complexes of metformin or metformin analogues and a TGR5 ligand that are useful in treating diseases including diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cancer.

Abstract: A method for a self-electing service by a managed device is described. The method includes configuring the managed device with a service. The service is configured on at least one additional managed device in a network segment. The method also includes determining whether the managed device is selected to provide the service by negotiating with the at least one additional managed device in the network segment based on preconfigured election rules.

Abstract: A method and composition for absorbing ionizing radiation in air flow systems. A neutron poison is used in combination with a binder and is applied to a filter of an air flow system with the result that ionizing radiation is absorbed from the filter and air.

Abstract: A system and method provide selective access to portions of digital content. A request to access a digital content item is received, the digital content item including multiple portions. Responsive to the request, multiple policies relating respectively to the multiple portions of the digital content item are identified. Access to the multiple portions of the digital content item is selectively enabled, based on the multiple policies.

Abstract: A computing device configured for installing an application is described. The computing device includes a processor and instructions stored in memory that is in electronic communication with the processor. The computing device determines if an application instruction length is a first instruction length or a second instruction length. The first instruction length is shorter than the second instruction length. If the application instruction length is the first instruction length, then the computing device runs an application installer in a first instruction length mode. If the application instruction length is the second instruction length, then the computing device determines if an operating system instruction length is the first instruction length or the second instruction length. If the operating system instruction length is the second instruction length, then the computing device disables a compatibility module.

Abstract: A baffle system for guiding fuel stored within a fuel tank is disclosed. The baffle system may include first and second baffle walls. Each of the first and second baffle walls may be formed from inner, intermediate, and outer portions. Each inner portion may extend from the respective intermediate portion. Each outer portion may extend from the respective intermediate portion, with an angle at a junction of the outer and intermediate portions being between approximately 120 degrees and 150 degrees. The first and second baffles walls may form a partially-closed volume with the first and second inner and intermediate portions, where the partially-closed volume may be configured to retain fuel guided into the volume by the first and second outer portions.
