The purge gas feeding means comprises a plurality of paths running from an outer perimeter of the purge gas feeding means to an inner surface, the inner surface comprising a purge gas outlet for outputting the purge gas into the abatement system; wherein a cross sectional area of the plurality of paths increases from the outer perimeter to the inner surface such that a pressure of the purge gas falls flowing along the paths drops.

Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying, assembling, and publishing content are described. A content item, such as a video, having a first time length, is identified by a system to be included in a program scheduled for a first time period. The video may be hosted on a third party system. A first span of time within the first program is allocated for the video, wherein the first span of time is longer than the first time length. The system determines, prior to or at the first time period, a time difference between a current length of the video and the first span of time. At least partly in response to determining that the video has a time length shorter than the first span of time, the system selects supplemental content based at least in part of the determined time difference to be streamed to user terminals over a data network within the first time period.

The arm support may include arm rests which may be slideably moved to accommodate patients with narrower or broader shoulder widths.

Abstract: A nozzle for an abatement apparatus and a method are disclosed. The nozzle is for abatement apparatus operable to treat an effluent stream from a processing tool, the nozzle comprises: a nozzle body defining a nozzle inlet operable to receive the effluent stream, a nozzle outlet, and a conduit extending between the nozzle inlet and the nozzle outlet and operable to convey the effluent stream in a direction of flow from the nozzle inlet to the nozzle outlet; and an effluent stream rotator configured to impart a rotational component to the effluent stream to rotate the effluent stream around the direction of flow. In this way, the effluent stream is rotated as it passes through the nozzle body. The destruction rate efficiency achieved by an abatement apparatus when receiving such rotating effluent streams has been found to be significantly improved compared to non-rotating effluent streams.

In some embodiments, the response includes a notification that the application cannot be downloaded due to an application risk policy violation.

Abstract: Techniques for brand recognition and protection in applications (“apps”) for mobile devices are disclosed. In some embodiments, brand recognition and protection in apps for mobile devices includes extracting a plurality of features of an app; comparing the plurality of features with a target set of features associated with an entity; and determining whether the app violates a policy for brand recognition and protection for the entity based on the comparing the plurality of features with the target set of features associated with the entity.

Abstract: A portable organizer used for storing personal items in vehicles to prevent belonging from being transported in a disorganized manner. Additionally, the organizer is designed to provide various storage options, as well as a charging platform. To achieve this the organizer has a back plate, a collection of receptacles, and a base plate. The receptacles are serially distributed across the base plate. Additionally, the receptacles are delineated by sidewalls and a shelf that is inclined relative to the back plate. This enables the stored items to remain within the receptacles when the vehicle is motion, and sudden maneuvers occur. Similarly, the base plate is positioned in between an edge of the back plate and the receptacles to provide another option for storing or dividing the personal items.
