Abstract: Provided is a computer-implemented method, system, and computer program product for stand-in processing. The method includes receiving a transaction request message corresponding to a transaction, the transaction request message including a transaction value and an account identifier, determining whether to process the transaction request message as a stand-in transaction based at least partially on the transaction request message, in response to determining to process the transaction request message as a stand-in transaction, determining an account capacity corresponding to the account identifier, determining whether to authorize the stand-in transaction based at least partially on the transaction value and the account capacity, and in response to determining to authorize the stand-in transaction, completing the stand-in transaction. A system and computer program product are also disclosed.

Abstract: A multi-piece food product (10) comprising a plurality of strands (12A-12K) that are extruded and aggregated to form an aesthetically pleasing food product is provided. A formulation used to make each of the strands (12A-12K) includes a mixture comprising at least 20% sweetener, at least 15% starchy material, and at least 1% fruit by weight based a total dry weight of the mixture to yield a starch-based confectionary food product. One process for forming the multi-piece food product (10) includes extruding a food stream from a slurry, dividing the food stream into three separate food streams (24A, 24B), injecting color, flavor, and ascorbic acid into the food streams (24A, 24B), conveying the food streams (24A, 24B) into a former (26) and extruding the strands (12A-12K) therefrom, forming the strands (12A, 12B) into an aggregate food mass (31), cooling the food mass (31), and cutting the food mass (31) into individual portions.

Abstract: A high temperature humidity determining device which measures the moisture content of gas streams with temperatures as high as, but not limited to 600.degree. F. The device uses a solid state, thin film polymer type relative humidity/temperature sensor and electronic barometer to measure the properties of the gas stream. The unit does not require laboratory quality oxygen, ice water, distilled water or any other cleaning fluids. In order to avoid damage to the sensor, a sample is cooled to below about 300.degree. F. prior to sampling. This is done by pumping the sample air through a thermostatically controlled sample conduit, and into a positively pressurized and thermostatically controlled sample chamber. A microprocessor calculates the humidity ratio and dew point of the sample or other moist air properties, and delivers data to a visual process indicator, as well as to any other desired output.
