Abstract: A hat holder for effectively holding a hat in a manner and position simulating the position that the hat would take when placed on a person's head, effectively displaying the front portion of the hat and maintaining the shape of the hat without leaving any marks on the hat. The device includes a magnet that creates a magnetic bond with the ferrous part of the hat, a general hat form being additional support for maintaining the general shape of a hat, an arm that connects from the support structure to the base and a base which allows the hat to be supported from various support structures including but not limited to a vertical wall surface or the like with the orientation enabling the hat to be positioned generally in the attitude that the hat would assume when placed on a person's head.

Abstract: This invention relates to metal organic framework (MOF) compositions, methods of preparing them and methods of using them. The MOF compositions are characterized in that at least a portion of the linker molecule is an amino containing organic linker. The MOF also has a crystal size of greater than 1 ?m and has been treated with an acid wash to provide a MOF in which at least 55% of the amino groups are activated amino groups of the form —NH2. The MOF compositions are useful in adsorbing various contaminants from various gas stream. One specific example is adsorbing NO2 from an air stream.

Abstract: An erroneous transmission, of a record of data, to a distributed ledger system can be prevented. A first operation can confirm that a format of a content within the record of data is correct. A second operation can confirm that formats of elements of a set of information, about authorizations used to cause the record of data to be communicated via the distributed ledger system, are correct. A third operation can confirm that subject matters of the elements and a subject matter of the record of data are the same. A fourth operation can retrieve credentials associated with entities that produced the elements. A fifth operation, using the credentials, can confirm that the entities that produced the elements were authorized to produce them. A sixth operation can confirm that the set of information is sufficient to authorize causing the record of data to be communicated via the distributed ledger system.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for sterilizing implantable biomaterials. In particular, the invention relates to a process for sterilizing collagen-containing implantable biomaterials and storage thereafter.

Abstract: A computer based system and method for identifying complaint interactions, including: detecting appearances of linguistic structures related to complaints in an interaction; calculating at least one sentiment metric of the interaction; and classifying the interaction as being or not being a complaint interaction based on the detected linguistic structures and the at least one sentiment metric, for example using a trained supervised learning model.

Abstract: The method for storing streaming media includes receiving, from a user device, a request to navigate to a requested time of a media stream. The method also includes determining whether a block of media segments that have a time interval that overlaps with the requested time is stored at the server. The method also includes retrieving the block of media segments from long-term memory in accordance with a determination that the block of media segments is not stored at the server. The method also includes traversing the block of media segments that have a time interval that overlaps with the requested time of the media stream to seek and identify a media segment corresponding to the requested time of the media stream. The method also includes streaming a media stream to the user device that begins at the media segment corresponding to the requested time of the media stream.

Abstract: This invention relates to modified MOF materials, methods of preparing them and processes using them. A modified MOF of the invention is modified by impregnating a MOF with an inorganic metal salt. The starting MOF contains at least one linker or ligand which contains an aryl amino group as part of its structure. These modified MOFs are able to adsorb either basic or acidic toxic industrial compounds (TIC). The modified MOFs can be used to remove TICs from various gaseous streams such as air.

Abstract: We provide an ostomy collection device including: a housing defining a collecting volume for receiving and storing waste from an ostomy appliance, the housing including an inlet for fluidly connecting to an outlet of an ostomy appliance so that waste from the ostomy appliance flows into the collecting volume; and a cover layer positioned over an external surface of the housing.

Abstract: An incorrect copy of a record of data can be prevented from being transmitted to a distributed ledger system. A first file can be received and can include information, in audio or video form, with a description of a subject matter of the record of data and with an authorization to transmit the copy to the distributed ledger system. The first file can be sent to a device. A second file can be received from the device and can include information that confirms that the description of the subject matter, included in the first file, is correct, and that confirms that an entity, which controlled production of the first file, has permission to authorize causing the copy to be transmitted to the distributed ledger system. The correct copy can be caused, based on a receipt of the first and the second files, to be transmitted to the distributed ledger system.

Abstract: A system stores associates a database query with a name and stores versions of the database query. The system allows applications to execute a specific version of the database query by specifying the name of the database query and a version identifier. For example, the database query may be exposed as an endpoint of a REST API and invoked using calls to the REST API. This allows the applications to be designed without including the query definition within the code of the application. Continuous delivery of database query is performed by creating a new version of the database query that are tested using applications in a test environment. Once the new version of a database query meets test criteria, the new version of the database query is executed by applications running in production environment by sending API requests that identify the query name and the new version.
