Abstract: A thermoplastic film which exhibits elastic-like behavior along at least one axis when stretched or elongated and then released. The thermoplastic film comprises a plurality of raised rib-like elements extending in a direction perpendicular to a main surface of the thermoplastic film. The thermoplastic film further includes a plurality of web areas positioned about the plurality of raised rib-like elements. The plurality of raised rib-like elements and plurality of web areas are arranged in a complex pattern. The complex pattern provides visual and tactile cues as the films are stretched or elongated. The complex pattern can cause the thermoplastic film to have a complex stretch profile.

The current source circuit, the system power input, and the load switching circuitry form part of an integrated circuit. Related apparatus, systems, techniques, and articles are also described.

Abstract: To facilitate improved email and device security, embodiments of systems and methods include intercepting, by a processor associated with an entity, an internet request, where the internet request is produced by a link received in an email at a first computing device. The processor determines that the link is externally bound relative to an entity network. The processor determines an existence of a sandbox environment instance in a set of existing sandbox environment instances. The processor routes the link through the sandbox environment instance. The processor updates the sandbox log in the database based on the sandbox environment instance and the link. The processor causes to display on a screen of the first computing device a user interface for interacting with the link in the sandbox environment instance, and the processor logs activities associated with interacting with the link in a security log.

Abstract: A clock data recovery circuit includes a deglitch filter circuit and a timer circuit. The deglitch filter circuit is configured to remove pulses of less than a particular duration from a data signal to produce a deglitched data signal. The timer circuit is coupled to the deglitch filter, and is configured to compare a duration of a pulse of the deglitched data signal to a threshold duration, and identify the pulse as representing a logic one based on the duration of the pulse exceeding the threshold duration.

Abstract: A device and method for surveillance and early warning detection of undesired activity comprising local videophone and a remote videophone for the purposes of surveying a predetermined area with the local videophone and sending images of the captured information to the remote videophone for real time observation. The method also comprises at will surveillance of the predetermined area by calling the local videophone from the remote videophone to turn the local videophone on, conducting surveillance, and transmitting the captured information, in real time, to the remote videophone. The captured information may be recorded on the remote videophone, by a service provider, or by an emergency response team.
