Abstract: A folding template for a fitted sheet includes an elongated panel having a length slightly greater than the neutral width of an elastic end of the fitted sheet, and a width that is less than one-third the length of the fitted sheet. The panel is divided into four segments separated by a hinge configured so that the panel can be folded laterally inward with the fitted sheet engaged around the panel. In a method for folding a fitted sheet, the folding template is engaged in one elastic end of the sheet, spanning the width of the sheet. The template is repeatedly flipped over width-wise along the fitted sheet while maintaining the length of the template intact. Once the template reaches the opposite end of the sheet, the panel is folded inward on itself to a reduced configuration including the fitted sheet.

Abstract: A system for secure, role-based exchange of information between a client and providers of services is described. The system includes a client device having a memory that includes a portion of the data relating to the client, a user access component, and an enforcement agent. The system also includes a central server running an authentication methodology and a roles server. The central server includes the data relating to the client. The system further includes an interface device capable of communications with the central server and capable of communicative coupling with the client device. The system is operable to, upon a communicative coupling between the interface device and the client device, activate the user access method, in conjunction with the authentication method, to ensure that the client is the proper holder of the client device.

Abstract: A data processing device comprising comprising a memory having a plurality of addressable memory locations, a processor circuit, an input register operative to hold input data, an output register operative to hold output data, and a direct memory access (DMA) circuit operative to receive input data from the input register for storing the input data in a first memory location and to concurrently send output data from a second memory location to said output register. Other devices, systems and methods are also disclosed.

Abstract: A combination food and beverage plate has a generally circular bottom section with an upper surface and a lower surface. A generally cylindrically shaped side wall is contiguous with and extends upwardly from the perimeter of the upper surface of the bottom section. A generally cylindrically shaped support cylinder is contiguous with and extends upwardly from the upper surface of the bottom section. The support cylinder includes an opening at its upper extent. A plurality of planar, generally rectangular shaped food dividers are contiguous with and extend upwardly from the upper surface of the bottom section. Each divider has an inner edge and an outer edge, with the inner edge abutting the center support cylinder and extending radially outwardly therefrom. The outer edge of the divider abuts the side wall.
