Abstract: Various examples are provided for long and short sleeve shirts, sweatshirts, hoodies, and crop tops including a chest pocket. In one embodiment, among others, a hoodie includes two arm sides with or without sleeves and a chest pocket placed directly centered over the chest. The chest pocket is sewed on the chest and can have two or more openings that provide shelter and comfort for your hands and storage for a range of miscellaneous everyday used items.

Abstract: Present embodiments relate generally to brake systems, and more specifically, to caliper-based brake systems. In an embodiment, a method includes electrifying at least a portion of a first inner surface of a first brake block with a first potential. The method also includes electrifying at least a portion of a second inner surface of a second brake block with a second potential that is different from the first potential. The method includes performing an electrical measurement between the first brake block and the second brake block, wherein the electrical measurement include a voltage measurement, a current measurement, a resistance measurement, a frequency measurement, or a combination thereof. The method further includes determining a position of the first and brake blocks relative to a brake member based on the electrical measurement.

Abstract: A method and system for domain name resolution in a communications network including the steps of intercepting communication to and from the network and replacing DNS primary and DNS secondary IP address by an interceptor program. The interceptor program copies then replaces the IP addresses in messages received from the network to a spoof address so that an alternate application will receive the domain name resolution requests. The interceptor program replaces the IP addresses in messages sent to the network from the spoof address to the copied addresses. The alternate application receives the domain name resolution request and replaces the IP address of the request which is the spoof address to the copied IP addresses. The alternate application sends the domain name resolution requests to the copied IP addresses operatively simultaneously.

Abstract: An access unit (25) for configuring a first and second network-layer protocol for use over the point-to-point link and to facilitate communication between an Internet Service Provider (ISP) (20) and a data processing system (12) over the link. The data processing system (12) includes a first 28(1) and second protocol stack 28(2). The access unit (25) includes a multi-protocol (32) driver for routing a packet received from the ISP (20), a Wide Area Network (WAN) access driver (24) adapted to monitor an establishment of the link connection to capture a maximum receive unit, and a converter (23) adapted to receive a trigger from the WAN access driver (24), the trigger for indicating to the converter (23) to configure the second network-layer protocol on the link.

Abstract: An internal bone transport device and method for lengthen bone that, once surgically implanted will allow for a segment of bone to be transported along the length of the rod without changing the overall length of the rod. An externally applied magnetic force is used to drive the segment from one bone end to the other in a controlled fashion allowing for complete control of the rate of bone transport and adjusting this rate to the quality of the bone formation. It applies to patients in whom a segment of bone has been removed. This fully internal bone transport allows the bone transport to occur without any external fixation, thus eliminating the problems associated with pin tract infections and pain from the pins cutting through the soft tissue.

Abstract: An arcade game that has a numeric keypad for entering telephone numbers is disclosed. After a telephone number, or other unique number is entered into the keypad, default settings for the player are retrieved from a database. The default settings can relate to the type of car driven, type of track to use or whether automatic or manual shifting is preferred. Once the play of a game has been completed, the database is updated with any new preferences selected by the player. In addition, game statistics, such as the number of miles completed, number of laps completed and best lap time are stored to the database.

Abstract: A wide area vehicle driving video game is discussed that includes remote activation of sounds that are communicated to other players across the wide area network. Also discussed is a naming feature that presents the names of players next to the car that they are driving. The name is presented in a font that can be read no matter how far away the car appears in the video game display.
