Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes, by one or more computing devices associated with a payment service (PS), assigning a first payment card number of a first plurality of payment card numbers to an account of a user, wherein the first plurality of payment card numbers is issued from a first issuer processor. The PS detecting an event affecting the use of the first payment card in a transaction. The PS, in response to detecting the event, accessing a second plurality of payment card numbers issued from a second issuer processor and assigning a second payment card number of the second plurality of payment card numbers to the account of the user. The PS receiving an indication that a status of the event has changed. The PS, in response to receiving the indication, automatically enabling, the first payment card number for use in transactions for the account of the user.

Abstract: A user (e.g., a CMC scientist) identifies a change in CMC data for a regulated product, service, or system provided by an organization. A change assessment engine provides a recommendation for regulatory impact reporting. The recommendation may include a rationale and supporting evidence. The recommendation may identify the markets where the product, service, or system is registered, an indication of potential reportability in that market, specific health authority regulations that apply, and direct linkages into an internal regulatory knowledge repository of the organization. The change assessment engine may drive a user interface that guides users through the process in a consistent and repeatable manner.

Abstract: A reentry vehicle includes a nose section, a modular section comprised of two or more connected modules, a flared section. The nose section is connected to a first end of the modular section, and the flared section is positioned proximate a second end of the modular cylindrical section.

Abstract: Lightweight synthetic gravel is comprised of glass particles made from recycled glass and plastic particles made from recycled plastic is formed by mixing the glass and plastic particles and heating the plastic particles to a softened state to allow the glass and plastic particles to be pressed into and retain a desired form. The method of producing the gravel includes grading glass into glass particles, grading plastic into plastic particles, mixing the glass particles and the plastic particles, heating the plastic particles such that the plastic particles soften and become moldable, molding the heated mixture of glass and plastic particles into a desired form, and allowing the desired form to harden.

Abstract: An apparatus for drying scuba diving gear is provided having a support member and first, second and third hanger sub-assemblies removably, slidably engageable with respect to the support member. The sub-assemblies are in vertical alignment with one another at their point of engagement with the support member. Each sub-assembly is adapted for specific pieces of scuba gear. Preferably, the support member is a vertically disposed shaft telescopically secured to an erectable/collapsible tripod assembly. An apparatus is also disclosed where the support member is a chain assembly having an attachment hook for attachment with respect to an overhead support at one end and a support bar to hold the hanger sub-assemblies upright in engagement with the chain assembly at the other end.
