Abstract: A record holder system includes a frame of two ends and two sides, a fixed end attached to one of the ends of the frame, and a selectively adjustable end slidably connected to the frame. The frame connects to a track. The adjustable end includes a clamp that engages the track to retain the adjustable end in select position along the track. A handle connects to the clamp. The handle is manually pressed to disengage the clamp from the track, thereby allowing the adjustable end to be varied in relative position with respect to the fixed end. Records or other items may be stacked upright and retained in the system.

Abstract: A system includes a processor configured to detect a vehicle key and display a key identification on a vehicle display. The processor is also configured to receive a request to export vehicle system and state settings to a key memory. The processor is further configured to access a plurality of predefined settings, designated as key-storable settings, from a vehicle CAN bus, responsive to the request, and transmit the predefined settings to the key, including instructions to store the settings to the key memory.

Abstract: Methods and systems for selecting vehicle operating modes in response to output of remote security token devices are described. In one example, a vehicle operating mode may be determined when two key fobs having different, but valid, security token assignments are present within a vehicle cabin. Further, one mode of a two mode key fob may be selectively deactivated and reactivated to provide system flexibility.

Abstract: This disclosure includes embodiments of apparatuses and methods for simulating the uterus of a human (e.g., for training medical providers to perform sonograms, amniocentesis, ultrasound-guided amniocentesis, and/or other procedures). For example, in at least some embodiments, the apparatus comprises a container with a compartment and an anterior wall that is configured to permit sonogram imaging of the compartment. In some embodiments, the apparatus comprises a container that is configured to be removably coupled to the abdomen of a live human or human model such that the compartment simulates the uterus of the human or model.

Abstract: A pay-per-use computer, or other electronic device that uses local security, may use a security module or other circuit for monitoring and enforcement of a usage policy. To help prevent physical attacks on the security module, or the circuit board near the security module, a second circuit may be mounted over the security module to help prevent access to the security module. Both circuits may be mounted on a interposer and the interposer mounted to the circuit board, creating a stack including the first circuit, the interposer, the security module, and a main PC board. When the PC board includes dense signal traces under the security module a three dimensional envelope is created around the security module. When the first circuit is a high value circuit, such as a Northbridge, the risk/reward of attacking the security module is increased substantially and may deter all but the most determined hackers.

Abstract: A security module for a pay-per-use computer supplies an appropriate BIOS for a given mode of operation. A power manager in the security module powers only essential circuits until the BIOS is operational to help prevent substitution of a non-authorized BIOS. The security module also includes a capability to monitor and restrict data lines on a bus between a main computer processor and computer system memory. When the computer is operating in a restricted use mode, data lines may be restricted to allow only minimal access to the computer system memory. Bus transactions may be monitored to ensure that only valid transactions are occurring and are within the designated memory space.

Abstract: A display device for use with a computer adapted for operation in an unrestricted use mode and a limited function mode and a method for enforcing a limited function mode display is disclosed. The display device enters a limited function mode when a condition of non-compliance with an operating policy is discovered by the computer. Additionally, the display device may also enter a limited function mode upon powering up or when connections to the computer and/or selected components of the display are disabled or disconnected. When in the limited function mode, the display may support a limited function interface for use in correcting the condition of non-compliance.

Abstract: An apparatus for treating headache and/or facial pain includes an electrical lead and having a distal end portion, a proximal end portion, and a channel extending between the distal and proximal end portions. The distal end portion has at least one electrode disposed thereon and at least one foldable tine for anchoring the distal tip adjacent a SPG, and the proximal end portion is adapted for connection to an energy delivery source.

Abstract: An SPI switch allows selection of a BIOS memory transparent to a Southbridge chipset component. The SPI switch provides address translation to a selected BIOS memory area under the control of a security module processor. The SPI switch also provides command filtering to prevent commands that represent a security risk such as bulk erase commands. Because the SPI switch allows transparent redirection between BIOS programs, booting in different operating modes may be supported without any changes to the basic computer architecture or major chipset components.
