  • Publication number: 20240250942
    Abstract: The present technology provides for altering an authentication technique in response to a detection of a possible attack to which the authentication technique is vulnerable. An authentication provider can receive an authentication request to authenticate to a first resource, where the authentication to the first resource is permitted using a particular authentication technique, includes contextual information associated with the first access device and information identifying the first resource. Based on the contextual information, the authentication provider can determine that the authentication request is subject to an ongoing attack, and determine, an alternative authentication technique that is less vulnerable to the ongoing attack than the particular authentication technique.

  • Patent number: 12035823
    Abstract: A frame apparatus for displaying an article. The frame apparatus includes a support structure having a frame and a backer panel. A plurality of slots are formed into the backer panel that include a first slot that is elongated along a first axis that is parallel to top and bottom edges of the support structure and a second slot that is elongated along a second axis that is parallel to lateral edges of the support structure. The frame apparatus may include a hanging element for hanging the support structure from a support surface such as a wall. The hanging element may be configured to be slidably coupled to the support structure such that the hanging element can slide back and forth within one of the slots while remaining coupled to the support structure. This structure enables the frame apparatus to move side-to-side along the support surface while hanging therefrom.

  • Patent number: 12024429
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to methods, systems, and apparatus arranged and designed for converting non-methane hydrocarbon gases into multiple product gas streams including a predominately hydrogen gas stream and a predominately methane gas steam. Hydrocarbon gas streams are reformed, cracked, or converted into a synthesis gas stream and methane gas stream by receiving a volume of flare gas or other hydrocarbon liquid or gas feed, where the volume of hydrocarbon feed includes a volume of methane and a volume of non-methane hydrocarbons. The hydrogen contained in the syngas may be separated into a pure hydrogen gas stream. A corresponding gas conversion system can include a super heater to provide a hydrocarbon feed/steam mixture, a heavy hydrocarbon reactor for synthesis gas formation, and a hydrogen separator to recover the hydrogen portion of the synthesis gas.

  • Patent number: 11744364
    Abstract: A wall hanging system for hanging an article from a support surface such as a wall. The article may have a first mounting channel that is elongated along a first channel axis. The system includes a surface mounting element that is configured to be coupled to the support surface with a portion of the surface mounting element protruding from the support surface. Furthermore, there is a cam lock slidably coupled to the article along the first mounting channel. The cam lock has a longitudinal axis and a receiving cavity that is configured to receive a distal portion of the portion of the surface mounting element. The cam lock is configured to be locked to the surface mounting element by rotating the cam lock about the longitudinal axis while the distal portion of the portion of the surface mounting element is located within the receiving cavity of the cam lock.

  • Patent number: 11739541
    Abstract: A cable management system includes a mounting bracket configured for mounting to a wall surface and a detached snap-on type cover member. The mounting bracket includes vertically spaced support ledges for supporting one or more cables in multiple regions of the bracket. The bracket and cover member include mating connection element protrusions which become mutually engaged to snap fit the cover to the bracket in a readily removable manner to access the cable runs. The cables are fully concealed by the cover member. In one embodiment, the bracket and cover member are configured to simulate baseboard molding in appearance and are mounted at the bottom of the wall at the interface with the floor. Coupler members complementary configured to match the profile of the cover members may be detachably coupled thereto to bridge joints or gaps between adjacent sections of cover members.

  • Publication number: 20230234428
    Abstract: A support apparatus for maintaining a golf cart windshield in a partially open state, a golf cart which includes the support apparatus, and related methods. The support apparatus may include an arm assembly that is length adjustable. First and second suction cup assemblies may be pivotably coupled to opposite ends of the arm assembly. In use, the first suction cup assembly may be adhered to a lower portion of the windshield while the second suction cup assembly is adhered to an upper portion of the windshield to maintain the windshield in one of a plurality of different partially open positions. The particular open state/position of the windshield may be dictated by the length of the arm assembly, the angle of the first and second suction cup assemblies relative to the arm assembly, and the position of the first suction cup assembly along the lower portion of the windshield.

  • Publication number: 20230201385
    Abstract: The invention relates to a non-invasive imaging method of bacteria. One embodiment comprises labeling the bacteria with a radioisotope, then delivering it to the gut of a human or animal. Another embodiment is to label bacteriophages, then administer them to a human or animal, so that they infect (and thus co-localize with) bacteria already resident in the human or animal. The bacteriophage can then be imaged, showing the location of the resident bacteria of interest. In another embodiment, the invention is related more generally to the labelling of bacteria or bacteriophages with a radio-metal or radioisotope to render the labeled gut bacteria and the bacteria in the body visible to nuclear medicine PET and SPECT imaging guided by functional/structural MRI and/or CT imaging.
