Abstract: Methods, systems and software include programmatically downloading over the Internet, at routine intervals of time as well as on demand, from an online computer system of the USPTO, data relating to patent properties that are associated with a customer number; and creating a docket based on the downloaded data, generating and displaying a report generated from the downloaded data, sending an alert (email or text message) that is based on the downloaded data, or any combination thereof. Outgoing correspondence of the USPTO is provided in PDF format for review by a user. Data specific to a particular client also is provided to the client programmatically, with reports, alerts, docketing, or any combination thereof, further being provided for use by the client.

Abstract: A browser application has at least two web browser objects for browsing Private PAIR while hiding multi-page navigation from a user. The browser application is configured to automatically download XML data from Private PAIR, and generate one or more reports therefrom, including a Daily Updates report, a Cross Checker report, and a Docket Listing report. The browser application is preferably configured to selectively provide limited access to Private PAIR by restricting user navigation to programmatic navigation.

Abstract: The present invention may comprise a main tab, a tab shield, a rim, an interior rim guard, and a tab finger port. The invention may further comprise breakable connectors among the tab, tab shield, rim, interior rim guard, and other structures, such that breakage of the connectors indicates access to a container after preventing or inhibiting access to a container, such as a beverage can.

Abstract: Embodiments herein facilitate resisting side channel attacks through various implementations and combinations of implementations. In embodiments, this is accomplished by preventing sensitive data from consecutively following other data through potentially vulnerable resources which otherwise may cause data to leak. Where such vulnerabilities to attacks are known, suspected, or as a proactive precaution, a cleaner can be used to inhibit the sensitive data from passing through the vulnerable areas consecutively and thus inhibit the leakage. Embodiments also envision utilizing certain types of circuits to assist in preventing leakage. By using such circuits one can reduce or even potentially eliminate the requirement for cleaners as mentioned previously.

Abstract: A restricted access container may include an outer shell and an inner tray. The outer shell may define a recess. The outer shell may include a first wall, a second wall, a third wall, and an opening. The first wall may include a hole and a notch. The second wall may be opposite the first wall. The third wall may be coupled to each of the first wall and the second wall. The opening may be opposite the third wall. The inner tray may define a receiving area. The inner tray may include a tab, a first protrusion, and a second protrusion. The first protrusion may be disposed on the tab. The inner tray may be inserted through the opening into the recess of the outer shell such that the first protrusion is disposed within the hole of the first wall to fix the inner tray to the outer shell and the second protrusion is disposed within the notch.

Abstract: A Drip Edge Configuration (aka Rodent Proof Drip Edge System) is designed for residential use to cover the construction gap above the fascia to prevent rodent entry and to direct water into the gutters. The Drip Edge Configuration also comes with a Roof Return Configuration to seal the gap where the soffit meets the shingles. Finally, The Drip Edge Configuration also has the option for venting in the rare occasion where a house has no soffit or additional venting is required. An improved drip edge which includes holes in the fascia-facing face which allows the drip edge to be screwed from the face using screws with rubber washers for a water proof seal just as used on a metal roof for a rodent proof solution. An improved drip edge which includes also galvanized steel and is flexible enough to cut and bend for proper installation to have rodent proof inside and outside corners. A roof return configuration to seal the construction gap where the soffit meets the shingles.

Abstract: Disclosed is a microscope stage translation mechanism comprising: a drive rigidly attached or attachable to a bed which drive provides substantially linear motion of a drive element; a rocker arranged for pivoting motion about pivot axis, said axis being stationary relative to said bed, the rocker having a first region arranged to be directly engageable with the drive element, and a second region distant, relative to the axis, from the first region; and a follower having a follower surface arranged to be directly engageable with the second region of the rocker, the follower being attached or attachable to a vertically moveable part of the stage; the mechanism being characterised in that the drive element and the first region have point contact at a first contact point (P) when engaged, and in that the second region and the follower surface also have point contact at a second contact point when engaged.
