20100011119 | AUTOMATIC BIT RATE DETECTION AND THROTTLING - A computer system receives a request from a client computer system for data that is to be presented to a user, accesses a portion of the requested data and determines the encoded bit rate from the accessed portion of requested data. Based on the encoded bit rate for the requested data, the computer system determines an initial amount of data that is to be transferred to the client computer system to enable prompt access to that portion of data and determines the transfer rate for transferring the remaining data to the client computer system. The transfer rate for the remaining data is lower than the transfer rate for the initial amount. The computer system transfers the initial amount of data to the client computer system and transfers the remainder of the requested data to the client computer system at the determined lower transfer rate, subsequent to transferring the initial amount. | 01-14-2010 |

20080290070 | METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING MULTI-PITCH FLASHING - A method for manufacturing lead flashing for a roof pipe is disclosed. A lead pipe is straightened and then pushed into a frictionally engaged knurled clamp. Pressure is applied between a knurled head of a knurler and the inner surface of the lead pipe and the knurler is rotating about the inner surface of the lead pipe. This causes the lead pipe to conform to the knurles of the knurled clamp and the knurled head, while causing a portion of the lead pipe extending beyond the knurled clamp to be contoured and swaged into a flange. At a multi-position horizontally positioned rotatable table, the flange of the knurled lead pipe is flattened to overlap a flat lead sheet having a hole cut from its center. The knurled lead pipe flange and flat lead sheet are arc-welded together with a TIG weld gun. After welding, the finished lead pipe flashing is moved onto a packaging feed conveyor via a vacuum lifter. | 11-27-2008 |

20090170360 | Sealed compression type coaxial cable F-connectors - Axially compressible, self-sealing, high bandwidth F-connectors for conventional hand tools for interconnection with coaxial cable. An internal, dual segment sealing grommet activated by compression provides a seal. Each connector has a rigid nut that is rotatably secured to a, tubular body. A rigid, conductive post coaxially extends through the connector. A post barbed end penetrates the cable within the connector. A tubular, metallic end cap is slidably fitted to a body shank, and thereafter forcibly compressed lengthwise during installation. The end cap has a ring groove for seating the enhanced grommet. The end cap can irreversibly assume any position, being held by end cap teeth. A tactile system comprising external convex projections on the body complemented by a resilient, external O-ring on the end cap aids installers who can properly position connectors with the sense of touch. | 07-02-2009 |

20120016655 | DYNAMIC LANGUAGE TRANSLATION OF WEB SITE CONTENT - Methods, systems, and computer readable medium for providing translated web content. A request is received from a user for content in a second language translated from content in a first language from a first Internet source. The content in the first language is obtained and divided into one or more translatable components. Whether the one or more translatable components have been previously translated, via at least one of machine translation, human translation, and a combination thereof, into the second language and stored as translated components in a storage is determined. If there are one or more translatable components previously translated and stored, the content is generated in the second language by modifying the content in the first language so that at least some translatable components are replaced with corresponding translated components and sent in the second language to the user as a response to the request. | 01-19-2012 |
20120017146 | DYNAMIC LANGUAGE TRANSLATION OF WEB SITE CONTENT - Methods, systems, and computer readable medium for facilitating selection of a preferred language associated with a website. In one example, information including information relating to a user is first received via the communication platform. The received information is then automatically analyzed to estimate a preferred language in which the user likely uses to view content from the website. A selector is displayed with an available selection of a language that most closely matches the estimated preferred language to allow the user to specify the user's preferred language with respect to the website. The user's preferred language is stored, and the user is redirected to the website in the user's preferred language. | 01-19-2012 |
