Abstract: An appliance works in conjunction with an agent on a remote device to control application access to a corporate network. In conjunction with an SSL tunnel and policy operating at the appliance, granular application control may be implemented. In particular, a device user may determine what applications from a set of applications may access the corporate network and which applications do not access the network. The policies applied to application traffic may be generated by an administrator. Policies may also be applied from a remote server to data stored on the user device.

Abstract: The apparatus is a wire rope roundsling loop with an inspection window. The tubular cover on wire rope roundslings normally prevents visual inspection of the core to find damage or corrosion on the wire rope. The invention provides an open window in the cover over the core which can easily be worked around the roundsling to inspect the entire loop. An added feature is a window cover which is sewn on the cover in the region of the window and can be fastened closed to protect the wire rope and the window.

Abstract: A process for treating used cooking oil or fat by passing the used cooking oil or fat from a used cooking oil or fat source to a holding vessel, and contacting the used cooking oil or fat with a predetermined amount of purifying material upon accumulation of a first predetermined amount of the oil or fat in the holding vessel. The used cooking oil or fat and the purifying material then are passed from the holding vessel to a filter apparatus upon accumulation of a second predetermined amount of the oil or fat in the holding vessel. The second predetermined amount of oil or fat is greater than the first predetermined amount. Upon passing of the used cooking oil or fat and the purifying material from the holding vessel to the filter apparatus, the purifying material becomes entrained in the filter apparatus. The used cooking oil or fat then is passed from the filter apparatus to the source.
