A computer system in the form of a voice command platform includes a voice browser and voice-based applications. The voice browser has global-level grammar elements and the voice applications have application-level grammar and grammar elements. A programming feature is provided by which developers of the voice applications can programmably weigh or weight global-level grammar elements relative to the application-level grammar or grammar elements. As a consequence of the weighting, a speech recognition engine for the voice browser is more likely to accurately recognize voice input from a user. The weighting can be applied on the application as a whole, or at any given state in the application. Also, the weighting can be made to the global level grammar elements as a group, or on an individual basis.

Local surgical cockpits comprising local surgical consoles that can communicate with any desired remote surgical module (surgical robot), for example via a shared Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) or other unified open source communication protocol or other suitable communication system. The systems and methods, etc., herein can also comprise a modular approach wherein multiple surgical consoles can network supporting collaborative surgery regardless of the physical location of the surgeons relative to each other and/or relative to the surgical site. Thus, for example, an operator operating a local surgical cockpit can teleoperate using a remote surgical module on a patient in the same room as the surgeon, or surgeons located in multiple safe locations can telemanipulate remote multiple surgical robots on a patient in or close to a war zone.

A method of user logon to a computing device or computer system that, distinct from requiring entry of a set of known logon credentials such as a username and password, introduces an additional thought-directed user interface whereby the user must respond to one or more prompts that measure the user's cognitive function at the time of logon or during an active logon session. The user's responses to these prompts are evaluated for several purposes, including determining whether the user demonstrates the required level of cognitive function to gain access to the computer system or continue an active logon session. The user's responses and associated data may also be stored and retrieved at a later time for various purposes, including determining whether and to what extent the user's level of cognitive function is improving, diminishing, or remaining static over time.

The present invention discloses an exerciser having magnets adjusting device, which comprises a frame assembly, a flywheel, a driving assembly, a power transmission mechanism and a magnets adjusting device. The magnets adjusting device includes a guiding rail, a sliding unit with magnetic units, and a control mechanism. The guiding rail is fixed on the frame assembly. The sliding unit is mounted on the guiding rail so that the sliding unit and the magnetic units can be linearly moved along the guiding rail. The control mechanism controls the reciprocated movement of the sliding unit and the magnetic units linearly close to or away from the axis of the flywheel. Whereby, to improve the stability of the adjusted variable damping and accurately calculate the corresponding resistance after the adjustment, and to enhance the durability of the machine can be achieved.

A fuel storage tank for an automotive vehicle includes a receiver with a number of perimeter walls defining an interior volume for storing liquid fuel. A number of anti-slosh bodies are located within the receiver. A locator structure cooperates with perimeter walls to confine the anti-slosh bodies within a predetermined part of the interior volume.

A glove compartment is provided in an instrument panel of a vehicle. A lid selectively opens and closes an opening formed in the instrument panel. A gap is defined between side edges of the lid and side edges of the opening when the lid closes the opening. Gap adjusters hold the side edges of the lid with respect to the side edges of the opening when the lid closes the opening, thereby adjusting the gaps. A locking mechanism locks the lid in a state closing the opening. An unlocking mechanism cancels the locked state of the lid. The unlocking mechanism includes an extrusion pin that is configured to push the lid to the outside of the opening when canceling the locked state of the lid.

A distributed test plan creating apparatus and method, a distributed test control system and method, and a distributed test agent and method are provided which control a plurality of agents to generate a good number of virtual clients, monitor test results, and reflect feedback information. A master plan scenario is created to control a large-scale server test by using at least one or more distributed test agents, and based on the master plan scenario, a per-agent plan is created to control the operation to be fulfilled by each distributed test agent. The distributed test agent is controlled according to the per-agent plan. Test results are received and read to generate feedback information which is used to create a new master plan. Therefore, a large-scale distributed test may be performed to properly respond to changes in data and situations.

A gas oven having a gas supplying passage to supply gas to a burner is provided. The gas oven includes an ON/OFF valve to open/close the gas supplying passage, and a flow rate modulating valve connected to the ON/OFF valve in series so as to change the cross-sectional area of a passage, thereby supplying a proper amount of gas to a cooking cavity in response to the change of a cooking area. When a cooking cavity is divided into individual cooking cavities while a divider is mounted, the flow rate modulating valve is open/closed at a smaller opening degree than the maximum operating degree, and thus may be able to prevent a cooking substance from being carbonized in the individual cooking cavities.

The religious game includes a game board with a playing path thereon, with the path having two phases. A series of question cards with correct responses on their backs is provided for each phase, with each card containing a series of questions, each question corresponding to one of the positions along that phase of the path. A repent area having a series of positions corresponding to the phase one positions is included on the board. The position marker of a player missing a question during phase one play is moved to the corresponding position of the repent area, and cannot return to the playing path until correctly answering a repent question. A missed question in phase two play initially results in a missed turn, with a second consecutive missed question resulting in a severe penalty by setting that player's marker back to an intermediate position in phase one.

This computer data protection method of the present invention requires a user to enter a correct password for modifying any data. If wrong passwords are typed, this method forbids modification of any program modules. Further, if any program module is detected having unauthenticated modification, that program module is deleted and an original image of that program module is loaded to recover normal operation of the operation system. Additionally, a common password is also provided in the protection method. Some special function can use this common password to pass the detection of this method to perform any modification.

The present invention provides methods for increasing the hatchability of eggs by contacting an avian egg with a solution that includes a halide, preferably chlorine.

A hybrid electric vehicle includes a wet clutch device that establishes and interrupts a connection between an engine and an electric motor, and a transmission switchable between a driving range in which driving force can be transmitted to driving wheels and a non-driving range in which transmission of the driving force is interrupted. When a battery temperature is greater than a warm-up determination value while the vehicle is at a standstill with the transmission switched to the non-driving range, the wet clutch device is kept disengaged. When the battery temperature is less than the warm-up determination value, a battery warm-up control unit switches the wet clutch device into engaged state to connect the engine and the electric motor together and vary driving force of the electric motor alternately to a positive side and a negative side so as to repeatedly charge and discharge the battery.
