Abstract: In a cable network, embodiments detect and remediate a non-responsive customer premise equipment (CPE) device in a customer's premise with minimal or no interaction with a customer. Embodiments may detect and remediate a non-responsive CPE device without rebooting the non-responsive CPE device or the associated cable modem. Embodiments include troubleshooting a data link layer (e.g., Open System Interconnection (OSI) layer 2, or media access control (MAC) layer) and a network layer (e.g., OSI layer 3, or Internet layer) between a service operator network and the non-responsive CPE device. Embodiments include a guided integration and a proactive integration method, computer program product, and system to reduce and/or eliminate the need for a customer service representative to reboot a cable modem, and/or for a customer to reboot a non-responsive CPE device resulting in a fast and less disruptive service experience for the customer.

Abstract: Improved apparatus for collecting particles from air comprises a cyclone having air inlet and outlet means, means maintaining an airflow there through and means delivering a collecting fluid from a reservoir to particles separated from the air flow in the cyclone, in which the air inlet means is associated with means for heating the incoming air. The apparatus, which is optionally provided with enclosure means for trapping heat, prevents freezing of the collecting fluid at temperatures near to and even below 0° C.

Abstract: An apparatus is disclosed that separates and removes to an external source, spent cell culture media from a cell culture media and cell culture mixture. The apparatus generally comprises a culture vessel, a filter member, wherein the filter member is positioned in the culture vessel to form an outside region and an inside region. Further provided is a tube member. The tube member being positioned in the inside region and having an opening therein to thereby remove the spent cell culture media brought into the inside region. Further disclosed is a structure for rotating the filter member around the tube member and a structure for sealing the outside region from the inside region when the filter member is rotating around the tube member.
