Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for providing an online publishing platform. The online publishing platform may host publications for a plurality of publishers. The publications may include a front-end portion that includes one or more articles and an advertiser marketplace. The front-end portion may be made accessible to end-users who access the publications. The publications may also include a back-end portion that can be accessed by publisher personnel. The back-end portion may include tools for managing the advertiser marketplace, as well a reverse publishing system that provides an end-to-end solution for creating and publishing articles.

Abstract: A valve assembly includes a housing having a valve bore, a valve seat, and at least one port communicating with the bore. A moveable plunger resides in the valve bore and selectively seals against the valve seat. A bobbin integral with the housing has a solenoid bore adjacent to and coaxial with the valve bore. A moveable armature resides in the solenoid bore and has an operating rod connected to the plunger. A pole piece resides in the solenoid bore adjacent the armature. A solenoid coil is wound about the bobbin. A flux conductor partially surrounding the bobbin, pole piece, and armature. An assembly method includes flowing air through the port, inserting the plunger or another sealing element into the bore while monitoring the fluid flow; and stopping the plunger or sealing element when the flow is at a preselected condition.
