Tools, devices, apparatus, systems and methods to enhance ball handling skills and reduce and eliminate fumbling of balls, from football players, basketball players and the like. The training tool can be used to improve ball security for football players of every level to reduce or even eliminate fumbling. The tool can simulate the forces imparted on a football that can cause a fumble during the game. Used during various drills in practice, the invention will improve the player's ability to maintain possession of the football during actual game play. The invention assembly can include a ball (such as a football, basketball or rugby ball), a rope, and a reciprocating handle weight subassembly. The tools can use a slightly vertical handheld sliding reciprocating weight with or without a spring(s), or motor, in order to cause shockwaves that pass to a player carrying a ball to simulate a fumbling condition during a game, where other players are trying to slap or grab or push or jar loose a ball from the grasp of the ball carrier. The reciprocating weight can be quickly pumped and/or jerked by the trainer/coach during drills to surprise and replicate a fumbling condition.

A valve includes a generally elongate pintle; a spacer having a rounded surface that bears against the pintle; a bulbous tip fixed to the spacer; and a hollow, generally cylindrical collar fixed to the pintle, the collar enclosing the spacer and the tip and including an opening through which a portion of the tip extends, the opening in the collar and interior of the collar being of a size such that the tip floats therein.

Methods, systems, and apparatus for improved dispatching of sheetsides in a high-speed (e.g., continuous form) printing environment using multiple, clustered processors in a print controller. Features and aspects hereof generate, update, and utilize a mathematical model of multiple processors (compute nodes) each adapted to RIP (rasterize) raw sheetside data provided to it. A head node or control processor receives the raw sheetside files from an attached host or server, determines current processing capacity of each of the multiple compute nodes to RIP the next sheetside, and dispatches the sheetside to the compute node identified as providing the minimum RIP completion time. Various conditions may invalidate a compute node from further consideration in dispatch of a particular sheetside. Thus a valid compute node is selected based on the minimum RIP completion time.

A steel floor construction for freight hauling vehicles includes a plurality of elongated floor planking members arranged in side-by-side relation to provide a load bearing floor with a nailing groove between adjacent planking members. Each plank includes a downwardly open channel member having a relatively wide central web supported along its edges by integrally formed downwardly extending flanges, with the web being reinforced along its length by an upwardly directed generally U-shaped member welded to its bottom surface and having a pattern of anti-skid projections die-formed on and project upwardly from its top surface. The channels are progressively roll formed from a continuous length of strip steel by passing the strip through a series of forming roll pairs. A pair of die rolls are employed between two adjacent sets of forming rolls, with the die rolls being driven together and cooperating to form the anti-skid projections by a cold forming process after the sheet has been partially formed into this channel shape by passing through a plurality of the sets of forming rolls. The U-shaped reinforcing member is welded to the strip after the anti-skid projections are formed.

Provided are a method, system, and article of manufacture for using a resource context to access resources and source data for a transform. A transform receives a request to transform source data and calls a resource context. The resource context initializes a resource object for the transform and acquires associations to source data and resources needed by the transform. The resource context maintains the acquired associations to source data and resources in the resource object for the transform and supplies the associations to the source data and resources to the transform. The transform transforms the source data using the resources to produce output and provides the output to the resource context.

A telephone switch depressor that includes a planar wedge panel that includes a tapered, planar wedge end that is adapted to be received between a telephone flash switch and the opening through which the switch extends. The depressor serves to hold the flash button in its depressed condition, to disconnect the telephone line from a handset, and to avoid the need to physically replace the handset on the base or rest in order to actuate a switch hook to cause disconnection of the handset from the telephone line. The wedge panel can be formed from a flexible, yet sufficiently rigid plastic material, and it can be adapted to carry printed information.

Routing data packet traffic in packet networks, expediting the flow of the data packets and reducing the effects of congestion at nodes is accomplished by capturing latency data for nodes for initial measurement times; and computing a least squares estimate of the delay as a recursive least-squares solution.

An enterprise service bus (ESB) having a plurality of internet relay chat (IRC) clients and internet relay chat (IRC) ‘bots’ that provide ESB like routing and mediation functionality. The internet relay chat (IRC) framework provides messaging transport, and utilizes SOA specific tooling to turn IRC into an SOA framework.
