Abstract: Systems and methods for generation and use of vendor management platform architectures are disclosed. A compliance component may be utilized to receive user input data indicating supply contracts between a client and a vendor. The user input data may be utilized to determine insurable obligations associated with the supply contract and provide indications as to whether or not the vendor is compliant with the insurable obligation required by the supply contract. An exposure assessment component may be utilized to determine an exposure score associated with a client account and/or a vendor account based on various compliance factors, spending amounts, and/or properties associated with at least one of goods and/or services that a vendor will supply to a client.

Abstract: In some examples, a computing device includes a first reset domain including a test controller and a configurable test logic. The computing device includes a second reset domain including a subsystem to be measured by the configurable test logic. The first reset domain is to enter a reset mode, and after exiting the reset mode, receive configuration information that configures the configurable test logic. The test controller of the first reset domain is to maintain the second reset domain in a reset mode after the first reset domain has exited the reset mode of the first reset domain, and responsive to the received configuration information for configuring the configurable test logic, provide a reset release indication to the second reset domain to allow the second reset domain to exit the reset mode of the second reset domain.

Abstract: A method for operating an air inlet in a vehicle includes setting, via a touch-sensitive operator control unit in an air stream of the air inlet, a temperature and/or a volume flow of air flowing into an interior of the vehicle through the air inlet. The method also includes controlling a color of one or more luminous elements of the operator control unit depending on the setting of the temperature and/or of the volume flow. An apparatus for an inflow of air includes an air inlet, the air inlet configured to provide an inflow of an air stream into a vehicle interior, and a touch-sensitive operator control unit positioned in front of the air inlet such that the touch-sensitive control unit is disposed in the air stream, the touch-sensitive control unit being configured to set first and second operating parameters of the air inlet.

Abstract: Provided is a ballistic shield having a body formed from a ballistic resistant material and sized to protect at least a torso of an individual. A first flap is connected to a side of the body that is configured to fold into a first closed position and a first open position, in the first open position the first flap is configured to connect to second body of a second ballistic shield. A second flap is connected to a bottom of the body that is configured to fold into a second closed position and a second open position, in the second open position the second flap is configured to connect to second body of a second ballistic shield. A corner flap is connected to the first flap or the second flap, the corner flap is configured to fold into a third closed position and a third open position, in the third open position the corner flap is configured to cover any openings between a corner of the first body and a corner of the second body.

Abstract: A plant care apparatus having a container for holding a liquid of water or water with fertilizer to be delivered to plants. The container has an outlet opening in the bottom thereof, a fill opening in the top and a way to seal the top of the container from entry of atmospheric air. A consistent pressure chamber is disposed below the container outlet opening for holding a predetermined amount of liquid which drains from the container. An air control passageway leading from the outlet opening of the container down to a predetermined level in the consistent pressure chamber causes the liquid from the consistent pressure chamber to fill until it reaches the predetermined level and closes the passageway. Once this passageway is closed, it prevents air from entering the container and thereby prevents the liquid from flowing. At least one accumulation chamber is provided below the consistent pressure chamber.
