Abstract: A wire strand attachment clip including a wire catch that defines a wire strand receiving and holding area configured to receive a wire strand, and a plurality of attachment arms connected to and extending from the wire catch that are dimensionally and biasingly configured to be positioned on a support post to attach the wire strand to that support post such that the attachment arms engage multiple surfaces of the support post.

Abstract: A ride-on vehicle for children comprising a main body that includes one or more built-in toy vehicle tracks that allow a toy vehicle to travel on the main body. A wheel assembly comprising a plurality of wheels is coupled to the main body. A drive assembly is operatively coupled to the wheel assembly and is configured to drive two or more wheels of the wheel assembly. A steering assembly is also operatively coupled to the wheel assembly and is configured to steer the vehicle based on a received user input.

Abstract: As indicated above, aspects of the present invention provide an approach for facilitating nondisruptive virtual machine (VM) maintenance in a networked computing environment. In an embodiment, a request for an update to an active VM is received, and a copy of the active VM is taken to create a snapshot VM. An update is installed on the snapshot VM. While the snapshot VM is being updated, all changes made to the active VM are saved. Once the update is installed on the snapshot VM, the saved changes are applied to the snapshot VM. A switch is made over to the snapshot VM in real time so that the snapshot VM becomes the active VM. The process allows a user to work continuously with the software as a service (SaaS) VM without disruption.

Abstract: A display system for an engine includes a processor configured to receive a first measurement indication relating to a measurement of a fuel control valve position of the engine, wherein the fuel control valve position is configured to control an air/fuel ratio of the engine. The processor is further configured to compare the first measurement indication to a first preset fuel control valve range, generate a first completion indication based on when the measurement is within the first preset fuel control valve range, and display the first completion indication on a display of the display system.

Abstract: An end-to-end mapping from a file system of an operating system running on a virtual machine to a storage volume of a SAN is determined. The virtual machine reported by the operating system is mapped to a definition of the virtual machine as provided by a management component managing the virtual machine. A storage device reported by the operating system is mapped to a definition of a virtual storage device as provided by the management component, such as by using a SCSI controller number and target identifier of the virtual machine storage device to correlate the virtual machine storage device to the definition. The definition of the virtual storage device is mapped to a storage device on a physical computing device on which the management component and the virtual machine are running. The storage device on the physical computing device is mapped to the storage volume of the SAN.

Abstract: A method of conducting a community-based wagering game event includes the acts of displaying images associated with a community-based wagering game on a surface, sensing a player's movement using a sensing device, the player's movement comprising a game input, and outputting to a controller a signal bearing data relating to the player's movement. The method also includes the acts of determining, using the controller, a relation between the player's movement and the displayed images on the surface and adapting the displayed images responsive to the player's movement.
