  • Publication number: 20050089368
    Abstract: The apparatus of the present invention is apparatus for preventing high speed vehicle pursuits and vehicle theft. The apparatus includes spikes, or other means for deflating a vehicle tire known in the art, disposed on opposing blocks or chocks, further secured to adjustable supports. The spikes and opposing blocks are positioned so to compress against the lower front and lower back surfaces of a vehicle tire. A vertical user engageable member is secured to the support facilitating placement around a vehicle tire.

  • Publication number: 20050089120
    Abstract: An FSK demodulator system with tunable spectral shaping including a pair of quadri-correlators responsive to first and second quadrature signals, one of the pair deriving first and second signals representative of the frequency deviation of the quadrature signals at even integer multiples of the frequency deviation and for resolving the modulated FSK data represented by the quadrature signals and the other of the pair deriving first and second signals representative of the frequency deviation of the quadrature signals at odd integer multiples of the deviation frequency and for resolving the modulated FSK data represented by the quadrature signals, and a delay control circuit for setting a delay to each of the pair of quadri-correlators to control the first and second signals representative of the frequency deviation of the quadrature signals derived by each of the pair of quadri-correlators and generate a tuned spectral response at both even and odd integer multiples of the frequency deviation.

  • Patent number: 6233600
    Abstract: A system and method for providing a collaborative work environment includes servers and client workstations. Client workstations receive data objects from one or more servers and combine the received data objects with stored templates to render HTML pages representing at least a portion of a common project. Users may view, edit, and create common documents for the projects and upload them to the server using a drag-and-drop interface. Additionally, since all file transfers take place using HTTP, project groups can span corporate organizations as well as time zones and geographic boundaries.

  • Patent number: 6230185
    Abstract: A method for facilitating communication between collaborators in a HyperText Markup Language (HTML) environment which includes the steps of: receiving data via a network connection; storing the received data in a database; retrieving an HTML file from a memory element; and using the stored data in conjunction with the HTML file to generate an HTML page for display. The data received via the network connection includes an indication that an HTML page includes discussions among collaborators. The HTML page rendered for display includes at least one discussion among collaborators. A corresponding system is also disclosed. At least one vote/poll item can be embedded within a discussion group.
