Abstract: A method for facilitating private drafting is described. A request to edit a section of a document in a draft mode is received from a first user of a plurality of users collaborating on the document. An edit for the section of the document in the draft mode is received from the first user. A result of the edit is displayed on a computing device of the first user but not on computing devices of other users of the plurality of users. A request to publish the edit is received from the first user. In response to the request to publish the edit, the result of the edit is displayed on computing devices of the other users of the plurality of users.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for an electric drive train of a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV). In one example, the electric drive train may include a four-node planetary gear set with a first motor coupled to a first input node, a second motor coupled to a second input node and an engine coupled to a third input node of the planetary gear set. The third node is positioned between the first and second input nodes. Torque delivered to each input node is summed at an output node of the four-node planetary gear set.

Abstract: An implement includes a global positioning system (GPS) receiver and an implement control system. The global positioning system receiver is configured to obtain position information for the implement. The implement control system is configured to determine a lateral error for the implement based on the position information, estimate a lateral error for a vehicle relative to the implement, the vehicle being attached to the implement, and steer the vehicle to guide the implement based on at least the lateral error for the implement and the lateral error for the vehicle.

Abstract: Method and systems are described that enable transactions to be processed between a client and multiple terminals without the need for physical cables or dedicated proxies. Additionally, long polling may be used between a terminal and a cloud server to ensure that transaction may be processed efficiently. In some embodiments, the transactions may be conducted over the Internet and the client may be integrated with an ISV.

Abstract: A method of insulating a tube comprising the steps of separating a slit tube insulator to two opposing split tube insulator sides created by radially slitting the tube shaped insulator; covering a tube with the tube insulator; and pressing the slit tube insulator sides together. One of the split tube insulator sides can contain a hook attaching component and the other side can contain a loop attaching component.

Abstract: An optical device may include at least one optical element and a coupling section adapted to control relative movement between the at least one optical element and the coupling section. The coupling section may include an engaging element and a detent mechanism adapted to adjustably lock the at least one optical element in a plurality of rotational positions. The rotational positions may include rotational positions around a first axis that is substantially perpendicular to a second axis of the at least one optical element, the second axis being a substantially longitudinal axis of the at least one optical element.
