20130075421 | FUEL DISPENSER - A fuel dispenser includes first and second cylinders adapted to contain respective first and second fluids, one being fuel and the other being a fuel additive such as a lubricant. First and second pistons in the cylinders displace the fluids through outlets and into a mixing line. The dispenser typically allows the volume of fluids displaced from each cylinder to be accurately controlled and adjusted in order to change the ratios. This is achieved by an adjustable aperture adapted to be opened and closed and optionally varied in degree of opening, typically by rotation of at least one of the components, to release fluid contained in the cylinder in front of the piston without passing the fluid into a mixing line. The adjustable aperture includes an aperture in a piston head, allowing the fluid in front of the piston to pass into or through the piston. | 03-28-2013 |

20130198409 | EFFICIENT IMPLEMENTATION OF USER-PROVIDED DNS NAMES - Embodiments are directed to automatically redirecting DNS requests for DNS names while the DNS names are not resolvable. In one scenario, a domain name system (DNS) server establishes a wildcard DNS entry for a specified domain name. Incoming DNS requests for that domain name are automatically forwarded to a load balancer. The load balancer inspects packet headers for each received DNS request to determine which hostname was indicated in the DNS request. The load balancer then accesses a mapping file to determine which back-end server the DNS request is to be redirected to based on the hostname indicated in the packet header and, based on the determination, forwards the received request to the determined back-end server. | 08-01-2013 |
