Abstract: A pneumatic impact device and method provide a high powered striking force against a target object. The device includes a core shell that houses a piston sub-assembly and a sear arm sub-assembly, and that further defines a forward gas chamber and a rearward gas chamber. The rearward gas chamber is loaded with compressed fluid via a handle actuator. A mostly external sear trigger assembly responds to the impact of a striker plate against the target object, thereby releasing a sear arm that then releases a piston, which is then accelerated forward by the compressed fluid charge. The device can be re-set manually via compressed fluid (e.g., air) in one embodiment, or automatically via a spring mechanism in another embodiment.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method for archiving websites, with which a customer may designate a target domain that is to be scanned and archived. At times or frequencies designated by the customer, the system scans every web page and link associated with the target domain. The system securely archives all the information corresponding to each web page, including text, graphics, HTML source code, etc. The system subsequently re-scans the websites to identify any changes, additions, and deletions to any of the web pages associated with the target domain. The system then alerts the customer of any changes and provide information pertaining to the changes. This may allow a business entity to closely monitor website activity of a competitor, and/or allow a business entity to archive its own website in a secure manner.
