Don't wait for summer to find out your brake system can't handle the heat. Temperatures can push components to the brink of failure.
Here's what you need to know before going on your next road adventure.
It started as a way to give soldiers some structured down time and a laugh or two.
Seventy-five years later the United Service Organization is vital to providing veterans and active military with essential services. Comedian Bob Hope made the USO famous by performing for troops, but entertainment accounts for only a part of the organization's mission.
Decisions made in fractions of a millisecond are the difference between a close call and a collision. There's not enough room for human error to fit through that small a window.
That's why technology that applies the brakes faster than the driver is effectively becoming an industry standard.
Audiences never see faded tires during a car show. Jet black tires act like the border of a painting--they enhance the art.
The best part? It really doesn't take much time or effort to give your tires some pizzazz.
Authentic road trips rely on a creased map stashed in the glove box or seat pocket. GPS navigation is a helpful accessory--like training wheels, or those gutter guards in bowling--but there's something comforting about holding a hard copy.
You can write on it, spill coffee on it, and it never needs a software update.
A 100 score may be a dismal round of golf, but it's a number worth celebrating for Professional Golfers Association.
PGA turned 100 this year and has grown into an international organization with more than 28,000 instructors and professionals.
It doesn't take much for a beautiful wheel to become a dingy eyesore.
The culprits? Brake dust and road grime. How can you keep the villains from ruining the value of your wheels?
He's one of the most influential writers in human history. His fingerprints on Western Civilization inform our art, literature and entertainment to this day.
And this year marks 400 years since William Shakespeare lived and worked in Stratford-Upon-Avon, the beautiful village nestled along a meandering river 100 miles north of London.
Don't be fooled by the simplicity. Dusting involves more than tossing a cloth on the hood and moving it around.
There's a good reason no one at an auto show gives the paint a once-over with an old towel or tattered T-shirt seconds before showtime.
Find out why.
They're not seen and not heard. But filters can make a big difference to your vehicle's performance.
Find out more about these small but important replacement parts.

April 14, 2007
The No. 2 Bruins relinquished first place in the MPSF standings with a narrow 7-6 loss to No. 1 Stanford at the Avery Aquatics Center on the campus of Stanford University. The Bruins fell behind early, but stormed back with three goals in the fourth quarter to force their first overtime of the season. The Cardinal won the match when Lauren Silver scored on a penalty shot with 1:33 left in the game. The loss drops UCLA to 20-2 on the season and 9-1 in MPSF play.
This game was eerily similar to the regular season match between these two teams last year. On April 15, 2006, UCLA jumped out to an early lead, but then Stanford outscored UCLA 3-1 in the fourth quarter to force overtime. The Bruins regained their composure in overtime to defeat the Cardinal 9-8.
This year, it was Stanford that jumped out to the early lead, scoring two quick goals in the first few minutes of the first quarter. Jillian Kraus got the Bruins on the board to cut the lead to 2-1, but then Christina Hewko scored her second goal just seconds later to put Stanford up 3-1 after the first quarter.
The Bruins scored first in the second and third quarters, but the Cardinal answered right back after each goal to maintain a two-goal lead heading into the fourth quarter. In the fourth quarter, the nation's best offense finally gained some momentum. Brittany Rowe scored two goals on back-to-back possessions to tie the game 5-5. Hewko scored her third goal of the game to put the Cardinal up one with just three minutes remaining in the game. But then Courtney Mathewson scored her second goal for the Bruins to force overtime.
Both teams held the other scoreless for the first period of overtime. In the second overtime, Stanford was able to draw a penalty shot with just 1:33 left in the game. Lauren Silver converted the penalty to put the Cardinal up 7-6. UCLA was unable to score on their last few possessions as Stanford held on for their second win over the Bruins this season.
Both goalies amazed the crowd with stellar play. Emily Feher, last week's MPSF Player of the Week, and Stanford goalie Meridith McColl combined for 20 saves in the match. Both teams were unable to convert on any six-on-five opportunities.
The Bruins will play another MPSF game at San Jose State tomorrow.
UCLA Goals: Brittany Rowe 2, Courtney Mathewson 2, Jillian Kraus, Gabrielle Domanic
UCLA Saves: Emily Feher 9
Stanford Goals: Christina Hewko 3, Jessica Steffens, Lauren Silver, Katie Hansen, Alison Gregorka
Stanford Saves: Meridith McColl 11

Google finds use for water-storage tanks from Oklahoma data center
PRYOR — Google Inc. has found a use for some spare water-storage tanks that help cool its Oklahoma data center.
The Internet search and advertising giant donated 30 large storage tanks to several local fire departments and county commissioners.
"We have fantastic public servants in Mayes County and all over the state," Mike Wooten, operations manager for Google's data center, said in a statement. "We hope these water-storage tanks will help make their jobs easier in emergency situations and provide an ongoing benefit for many Oklahomans."
Among those getting storage tanks are Mayes County; Oklahoma State University's Fire Training Facility; the city of Chouteau; Perkins Fire Department; and Pawnee Fire Department.
Google uses water-storage tanks as part of the energy-efficient cooling system for its data center, which typically requires lots of electricity and cool temperatures to keep servers operational.
Mayes County Emergency Manager John Janzen said Google approached county officials about the spare tanks. Some agencies will use the tanks for water storage, but a few want to convert the tanks into tornado shelters, he said. Each tank weighs about 15,000 pounds and is 10 feet tall by about 30 feet long.
"Some of the city and county workers and fire department personnel really don't have safe rooms to go to in case there was a tornado," Janzen said. "These metals buildings some of them are in really aren't very safe. A few of them had the idea to take those tanks and modify them a little bit with some vent pipes and access entrances. They will dig a hole, bury them about halfway in the ground and push the dirt on top of them to use as a shelter from a storm."
Each converted tank could hold 20 to 25 people in an emergency, Janzen said.
Janzen said Google provided a crane to load the tanks onto county trailers. The tanks are being stored at the Mayes County Fairgrounds until they can be distributed to the various agencies in the next few weeks.
Tanks valued at $1.6M
The 30 water-storage tanks would have a value of more than $1.6 million if bought new, he said.
"Google has been a very active participant in our county," Janzen said. "They've been great to have here, and we really appreciate what they've done for us countywide."
OSU will use three tanks to help train firefighters at its training facility west of Stillwater. Training officials said the area doesn't have adequate water pressure, so they will use the tanks to pump water to fire trucks.
"The additional storage will be a great benefit to provide water for the rural area if the wildfire season continues," said Bryan West, manager of the fire service training facility.
Chouteau Fire Department plans to use donated tanks for confined space training, which helps firefighters learn how to rescue victims trapped in small spaces.

The benefit of the filing dates of U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 60/180,102, filed Feb. 3, 2000, entitled "Network-Based Purchase Receipt Confirmation and Organization Application with Functional Facilitating Ancillary Merchant and Service Links," and U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 60/236,007, filed Sep. 27, 2000, entitled "System and Method for Compiling, Storing and Retrieving Digital Receipts," is hereby claimed, and the specifications thereof are incorporated herein in their entireties by this reference.
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates generally to electronically performed steps of sales and other transactions in which a receipt is issued and, more specifically, to the issuance of electronic transaction receipts having links to related information useful to the holder of the receipt.
2. Description of the Related Art
Receipts are issued to participants in transactions to provide evidence that the transaction has been completed. Merchants, banks and others have long issued paper receipts to customers. The advent of electronic transactions has led to the issuance of receipts in electronic or computer-readable format. For example, in electronic commerce ("e-commerce") transactions conducted via the global super-network referred to as the Internet, receipts are typically issued in the form of an electronic mail ("e-mail") message to the buyer.
In a typical consumer e-commerce transaction, the buyer uses a personal computer or similar (client) device to communicate with a remote (server) computer operated by or on behalf of a merchant or seller. The hypermedia user interface environment of that portion of the Internet known as the World Wide Web or simply "Web" facilitates consumer e-commerce shopping because it allows sellers to display images of the products, attractive advertisements, and other graphics on Web pages. Web pages that allow a user to send information to the server are generally referred to as forms. In accordance with Web conventions, forms associated with products for sale typically include, in addition to some combination of text and graphics intended to induce a user into purchasing an item, hyperlinks and interactive graphical structures such as buttons and checkboxes. A buyer can indicate the items he is interested in purchasing by selecting or activating corresponding hyperlinks or graphical structures using a mouse or similar input device on his computer. (Activating a hyperlink or graphical structure in this manner is commonly referred to as "clicking on" it.) In response, the server presents the buyer with a form requesting payment information, such as credit card information. In response to submitting that form, the server may present the buyer with a form confirming the transaction. In addition, the server may cause an e-mail message to be transmitted to an e-mail account designated by the buyer. The e-mail message can serve as a receipt if it includes information identifying the items purchased and the price paid. It may also include information describing shipping terms, such as when the seller expects to ship the items to the buyer.
Although e-mail message receipts are primarily plain text that sets forth the essential information identifying and confirming the sales transaction, they may also include graphics and hyperlinks. For example, e-commerce retailers have been known to include product advertisements in e-mail receipts. Such a product advertisement can include a hyperlink associated with an image depicting the product. In response to clicking on the image, the user is presented with an opportunity to purchase the product.
Another type of hyperlink that e-commerce retailers have been known to include in e-mail receipts relates to shipping. In response to clicking on such a hyperlink, the user is presented with an opportunity to track the status of his order. The tracking function may be done in association with the retailer's Web site or, alternatively, an independent shipper's Web site such as UPS or FEDEX.
It would be desirable to provide electronic transaction receipts that more fully exploit the opportunity for inducing additional sales. It would further be desirable to provide electronic transaction receipts that have hyperlinks directed to novel functionality. It would still further be desirable to provide a system that stores electronic transaction receipts and gathers information from stored receipts. The present invention addresses these problems and deficiencies and others in the manner described below.
The present invention relates to issuing an electronic receipt for a sales transaction that includes a hyperlink associated with post-sale interaction with the product seller, the product manufacturer or parties acting on their behalf that involves the product itself, such as a product return procedure, a product warranty procedure, receiving rebate notices and recall notices, product registration procedures and similar functions. Clicking on the hyperlink can cause, for example, the buyer to be presented with instructions for returning a product or with the text of a consumer product warranty under which the buyer can return the product for servicing or replacement. The buyer may further participate in a procedure for returning the product. For example, the buyer may be electronically given a return authorization number or a return shipping label that the buyer can then print.
It is to be understood that both the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory only and are not restrictive of the invention, as claimed.
The accompanying drawings illustrate one or more embodiments of the invention and, together with the written description, serve to explain the principles of the invention. Wherever possible, the same reference numbers are used throughout the drawings to refer to the same or like elements of an embodiment, and wherein:
As illustrated in
As illustrated in
As described below in further detail, in response to a sales transaction between seller 18 and buyer 20, an originator 24 issues or transmits a sales transaction receipt 26 to buyer 20 via network 22 on behalf of seller 18. Although in the illustrated embodiment of the invention, originator 24 and seller 18 are separate entities, in other embodiments they can be the same entity or otherwise integrated with one another. In other words, in such alternative embodiments the same entity that sells the goods or services also issues receipt 26. Also, note that although
Although in the illustrated embodiment of the invention the sales transaction is conducted electronically via a computer network such as the Web, in other embodiments the sales transaction itself can be conducted in any other suitable manner. For example, the transaction can be conducted in a retail store that the buyer physically enters, shops in, and makes a purchase at the seller's point-of-sale (POS) terminal or register. In such an embodiment the seller's POS terminal communicates with an originator or, alternatively, with the seller's own means for generating electronic receipts. In response to an indication of completion of the transaction, the originator or the seller generates and transmits the receipt to the buyer via the hypermedia network. As explained in further detail below, transmitting the receipt to the buyer refers to transmitting it to a computing device designated by the buyer or associated with the buyer.
There are embodiments of the invention in which a third party 32 can also be involved. As described below in further detail, third party 32 may, in some such embodiments, be an entity that sells goods or services that are commercially related to those that are the subject of the primary transaction between seller 18 and buyer 20. An example of a commercially related product is one that is used as an accessory to the product sold in the primary transaction. A straightforward example of an "accessory," as that term is used in the consumer products field, is a battery charger for a battery-operated radio. Likewise, a drill bit is commonly considered an accessory for a drill. Another example of a commercially related product is one that is used as in the same field as the product sold in the primary transaction. For example, it is well recognized that a drill and a saw are both used in the field of woodworking.
Alternatively or in addition, in some embodiments of the invention third party 32 can be an entity that accepts returns on behalf of seller 18. It is common for buyers to return products to electronic retailers, and companies exist that perform this service for retailers. Alternatively or in addition to the above, third party 32 can be an entity that provides product warranty service on behalf of seller 18.
As further described below, receipt 26 is an electronically created document instantiated by encoding the information included therein into a standardized format such as that known as Extensible Markup Language (XML). Tools for performing such coding are well-known in the art to which the invention relates and include commercially available software such as JDOM and XERCES, which are publicly distributed on the Internet in both binary and source form. As well understood by persons skilled in the art to which the invention relates, such tools encode the information from a JAVA class, application, servlet or applet. Receipt 26 can be encrypted to provide security using any suitable means, such as the RSA toolkit produced by RSA Security of Bedford, Mass. and the VERISIGN toolkit produced by Verisign In. of Mountain View, Calif. Once created, receipt 26 can be wrapped in a SOAP envelope. As well-known in the art, SOAP, which refers to the Simple Object Access Protocol, is a standards-based way of adding an XML envelope to an XML documents so that the recipient(s) can know what the contents of the XML document are supposed to contain and what, if any, processing is expected or required to be performed. The encrypted, wrapped receipt 26 can then be transmitted by any suitable delivery mechanism. Examples of well-known mechanisms that persons of skill in the art will recognize as suitable for this purpose include electronic mail (e-mail), file transfer protocol (FTP), a messaging middleware such as JAVA Messaging Service (JMS), or a proprietary commercially available product such as MQSERIES from IBM Corporation.
As further described below, in the illustrated embodiment of the invention receipt 26 includes hyperlinks 34, 36 and 38. As well-known in the art, a hyperlink is a reference or link from some point in one hypermedia document to another document or point in a document. Hyperlink 34 is a link to (something stored on the server operated by) seller 18; hyperlink 36 is a link to (something stored on the server operated by) originator 24; and hyperlink 38 is a link to (something stored on the server operated by) third party 32. Although in the illustrated embodiment of the invention three hyperlinks 34, 36 and 38 are included in receipt 26 for purposes of illustration and clarity, any number of such links can be included, and they can link to any other suitable entity. Indeed, receipts having multiple links to multiple documents, applets or other suitable items stored on a server or on different servers are very much contemplated, as illustrated by the examples described below.
As illustrated in
The computer also has a receipt organizer or handler 62. Receipt handler 62 allows buyer 20 to collect, store, categorize, sort and view receipts such as receipt 26. The receipts are received via network 22 and can be stored by receipt handler 62 in a user receipt database 64 on disk storage device 50. Receipt handler 62 can convert receipt data to the formats understood by common commercially available financial software programs (not shown), such as the personal finance program QUICKEN, and download the data to those programs for further processing.
Although in the illustrated embodiment of the invention the computing device on which the buyer receives receipts is described as a conventional personal computer such as a desktop or laptop computer, in other embodiments of the invention the device can be any suitable type of device that has a hypermedia user interface, i.e., that allows a user to interact with documents through the use of hyperlinks. Also note that the network can be wired, wireless or any suitable combination or hybrid of such media. Examples of suitable computing devices include those commonly referred to as personal digital assistants (PDAs), palmtop computers, and digital cellular telephones and other hybrid voice/data communication devices.
As illustrated in
The software elements of the programmed computer include an e-commerce engine 74, a receipt generator 76, and a receipt organizer or handler 78. Receipt handler 78 can use application program interfaces (APIs) 80 to interface with configuration reference tables 82, described in further detail below, which can be stored locally on disk storage device 70 as in the illustrated embodiment of the invention or, in other embodiments, can be stored remotely, e.g., on a server operated by another entity. APIs 80 also interface receipt handler 78 with applications that are part of e-commerce engine 74. In other words, e-commerce engine 74, which has overall control of the sales transaction with buyer 20, including controlling the exchange of appropriate Web forms with buyer 20, can invoke APIs 80 at the point in the transaction at which receipt 26 (
Although in the illustrated embodiment of the invention the seller's computing system or server is accessible to remotely located users (i.e., buyers or third parties), in other embodiments it can be accessible to on-site users for some or all of the uses described above. For example, the system can be located in a seller's retail store for use by customers in returning products or otherwise accessing their stored receipts. Such an in-store system can be housed in a kiosk and can include a convenient user interface, such as a menu-driven touch-screen. Such a system can also issue coupons to customers, either by printing them or transmitting directly to the store's POS system, conduct customer satisfaction surveys, and perform other ancillary functions. A coupon offer directed to the buyer and associated coupon codes can be included in the receipts along with an associated hyperlink or any other suitable mechanism for producing or otherwise redeeming the coupon.
As illustrated in
The major difference between this system of originator 24 and the system of seller 18 is that this system only generates and handles receipts and does not participate in the sales transactions themselves. Receipt generator 88 operates in response to instructions (received via network 22) from sellers to generate receipts. From the perspective of the buyers such as buyer 20, the role of seller 18 in issuing receipts is transparent. That is, buyer 20, in conducted a sales transaction with seller 18, is not normally informed of the source of receipts; buyer 20 may assume that the receipts he receives originate with seller 18 when in fact, in this instance, they originate with originator 24.
Receipt handler 88 is similar to receipt handler 78 of
Note that in the illustrated embodiment of the invention not only originator 24 but also seller 18 is capable of generating and handling receipts. Nevertheless, in a similar embodiment, a given seller that is otherwise the same as seller 18 may not have such capability and may obtain receipt generation services (as well as receipt-handling services) from another entity, such as originator 24. In such embodiments, the seller can be essentially the same as seller 18 but has a system with APIs that cause a receipt generation instruction to be transmitted to originator 24. In response to such an instruction, originator 24 generates receipt 26 and transmits it to buyer 20 on behalf of that seller. It is contemplated that the seller pay a fee for receipt generation services.
The methods described above perhaps can be more readily understood with reference to the flow diagram of
At step 112 buyer 20 receives and opens receipt 26. Like other Web documents received under control of browser 40, the opened receipt 26 is presented to buyer 20 on display 42 in hypertext format. (See
Receipt 26 can have, for example, an appearance along the lines of that shown in
Products 132 are selected for inclusion by originator 24 when receipt 26 is generated. In the illustrated example, the products 132, a television and a stereo component, are commercially related to one of the items in list 124, the "Wavphonica Stereo—[item number] 342567," by virtue of all being used in the field of consumer entertainment electronics. Products 132 are selected in response to configuration reference tables 91 (
To initiate the process of purchasing one of products 132, buyer 20 clicks on its representation, as indicated by step 133 in
Buttons 134, 136, 138 and 140 provide further functionality. In response to clicking on any of buttons 134-140, buyer 20 is presented with a drop-down selection list with information similar to that of list 124 identifying the products purchased.
For example, as indicated by step 142 in
In response to clicking on button 136 and selecting a product, an associated hyperlink causes browser 40 to transmit a request for a Web page (not shown) that is a form that buyer 20 can fill out with his name, address and other information and transmit back to the manufacturer to register the product. Product registration is a common mechanism used by manufacturers to obtain marketing information from purchasers of their products and also to keep the purchasers apprised of recalls or any other information in which the manufacturers believe the purchasers may be interested. If the manufacturer has provided a recall notice, buyer 20 can interact with the manufacturer's Web site to initiate return or service of the product under the manufacturer's recall procedure. (See
As indicated by steps 154, 156 and 158, in a similar manner button 138 provides a mechanism for buyer 20 to determine whether the manufacturer is offering a rebate on the purchase price. The associated link can be to the manufacturer's Web site.
Button 140 provides a similar mechanism for buyer 20 to respond to a customer survey (not shown) provided by the manufacturer or the seller through an associated hyperlink to the corresponding Web site.
In response to selecting or clicking on a representation of a product listed in list 124, an associated hyperlink causes browser 40 to transmit a request to originator 24. In response, originator 24 provides an associated product-specific Web page that can have an appearance along the lines of that shown in
In addition, the page includes a representation of an "accessories" hyperlink 165. In response to selecting or clicking on hyperlink 165, browser 40 is directed to a process provided by originator 24 that selects accessory products that are related to the selected product. Accessories are selected using configuration reference tables (
The page further includes a "return to digital receipt" button 166, a "users manual" button 168, a "shipping status" button 170, a "video instructions" button 172, a "categorize product" button 174, a "warranty" button 176, a "product returns" button 178, a "write review" button 180, and a "recalls" button 182. Some of these buttons initiate functions duplicative of those described above, such as "warranty" button 176 and "recalls" button 182. The returns procedure under button 178 includes, as described above, transmitting a label (not shown) to buyer 20 that buyer 20 can print and affix to the packaging in which the product is returned. Button 166, as the name implies, returns browser 40 to receipt 26 as represented in, for example,
In response to clicking on button 168, an associated hyperlink causes browser 40 to transmit a request for a page (not shown) that depicts the text of a user's manual for the selected product. The hyperlink may be directed to the manufacturer's web site or another entity's web site. It is sometimes the case that an entity separate from the manufacturer of a product publishes manuals for the product. In either case, a third party 32 (i.e., neither seller 18 nor originator 24) supplies the manual to buyer 20. Note that a representation of a "product specifications" hyperlink 169 can provide a similar function. In response to clicking on hyperlink 169, specifications for the selected product are retrieved from a suitable, e.g., the manufacturer's, Web site.
In response to clicking on button 170, an associated hyperlink causes browser 40 to transmit a request for a page (not shown) that indicates the shipping status of the purchase made by buyer 20. Seller 18 includes suitable methods in its e-commerce engine 74 to respond to such a request by determining the shipping status and transmitting it to buyer 20. Automated checking of shipping status of an order is in and of itself well known in the art and thus readily capable of implementation by one of ordinary skill.
Button 172 provides functionality similar to that of button 168, but rather than a textual or graphical instruction manual, the information is provided in video or movie format.
In response to clicking on button 174, an associated hyperlink causes browser 40 to transmit a request for a page (not shown) that allows buyer 20 to associate a category with the purchased item. The hyperlink may be directed to the web site of either originator 24 or seller 18, depending on which entity's receipt organizer service buyer 20 is using. The receipt organizer is described in further detail below. The category aids buyer 20 in searching and organizing receipts. For example, buyer 20 can associate the selected item with a "gift" category. Then, using the organizer service, buyer 20 can search for all receipts of the category "gift."
"Product returns" button functions similarly to "warranty" button 134 but does not include a step whereby buyer 20 can view a warranty. (See
In response to clicking on button 180, an associated hyperlink causes browser 40 to transmit a request for a page (not shown) that allows buyer 20 to enter a review of the product, i.e., the buyer's opinion of the merits of the product. The form can be returned to originator 24 and posted on the Web site. Alternatively, the review can be transmitted to a Web site of seller 18 or third party 32. Other potential buyers can read the reviews of a product before deciding whether to purchase it.
As illustrated in
In response to selecting one of the lines, an associated hyperlink causes browser 40 to request a page providing further information with regard to the corresponding product or service purchased. Such a page can have an appearance along the lines of that illustrated in
Another option that buyer 20 can select from the options presented on the receipt organizer service home page is "reports." In response to selecting "reports" originator 24 transmits to buyer 20 a page such as that illustrated in
Originator 24 transmits the information back to buyer 20, where it is presented in a suitable Web page. For example, if buyer 20 clicks on button 216 and selects from the displayed options a recipient named "Susan," buyer 20 receives in response a Web page such as that illustrated in
Note that the page listing the items purchased for the selected recipient (in this example, "Susan") has an "Export to EXCEL" button 224. In response to clicking button 224, browser 40 transmits a request to download or export the displayed data to the well-known spreadsheet program MICROSOFT EXCEL. As persons skilled in the art will recognize, a similar button can be included to export the data to any suitable application software, such as a personal finance program. An example of such a program is QUICKEN from Intuit, Inc. In
To facilitate receipt data transfer, such as exporting the receipt data to finance and spreadsheet programs and the like, the receipt data is stored in database 89 in a standard or uniform format. This feature is primarily important in embodiments of the invention in which sellers generate and transmit the receipts rather than having a separate originator entity (e.g., originator 24) perform those functions. In such embodiments, there is a party similar to originator 24 in that it includes receipt-handling and receipt-storing functions but different from originator 24 in that it does not itself generate receipts. Rather, such a party receives copies of receipts directly from sellers and stores them in the receipt database where they can be accessed by buyers, sellers and other entities in the manner described below. In such embodiments of the invention, when a receipt is received, it is converted from whatever format that seller may use into a standard or uniform format for storage in the receipt database. Because all receipts stored in the database have the same format, it is a straightforward matter to convert their data to a format compatible with the external program, e.g., QUICKEN. Such standardization also facilitates data-mining.
At any time after logging in, buyer 20 can log out, as indicated by step 228. It should be understood that not all method steps described above need be performed in any given session, i.e., the interval during which buyer 20 is logged in. For example, buyer 20 may log in and download receipt data to an application program without performing the categorizing step. Likewise, the steps can be performed in orders or sequences other than that described above, which is intended to be merely illustrative.
As illustrated by the above-described embodiments, the present invention provides electronic receipts having novel functionality, such upselling or inducing secondary sales of related products and providing access to warranties, product returns, user manuals, recall notices and other information potentially of interest to consumers. It further provides a mechanism for organizing and otherwise handling such receipts.
It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made in the present invention without departing from the scope or spirit of the invention. Other embodiments of the invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art from consideration of the specification and practice of the invention disclosed herein. It is intended that the specification and examples be considered as exemplary only, with a true scope and spirit of the invention being indicated by the following claims.

Sugarhill Gang will release a documentary regarding "the shocking truth about how greed and betrayal led to the band's fall into obscurity." I Want My Name Back will hit retail on June 11 and is expected to explain Sugarhill's business hardships behind the mic.
Saturday, the three release a teaser clip from the documentary highlighting Sugarhill Gang's unprecedented inclusion of Hip Hop on top music charts. The group was the first national Rap act to crack the Top 40 radio with their 1979 hit "Rapper's Delight," largely penned by Grandmaster Caz and was the highest grossing Hip Hop song of all time.
Treach of Naughty By Nature, a group who was signed to Sugarhill Records, is seen speaking in the clip about Sugarhill Gang's influence on Hip Hop music and music in general.
"It's mega, they changed the face of Hip Hop just by being like the first, not the ones in the Bronx, the Cool Herc's, but the ones who broke it like mainstream," Treach recalls in the clip.
The pioneering Hip Hop trio is the latest of many in the genre's history to release information regarding a sticky label situation. The documentary includes interviews with Naughty By Nature, and Grandmaster Caz.
Watch the full clip from I Want My Name Back below:

Reviewing the impact of your pension scheme's Investment Strategy
How the assets of a pension scheme are invested is very important. For example, are they mostly invested in growth assets such as equities, or in more defensive assets such as bonds? The investment strategy and associated level of risk is the key driver of changes in scheme deficits, and therefore of employer deficit recovery contributions.

Is there any way for me to know if my bike is Flight Deck compatible? I just bought the thing and I'm very proud of it. I don't have it with me because I bought it used and it's in the shop for a tune up.
I have chondromalacia in my knees and as a result I have to have a cadence sensor because it is important that I stay above 90. So I'm looking around at computers, and the Flight Deck seems like a pretty cool idea.
The problem is that I have no idea if my shifters are compatible. All I know is that my bike (a Kona Jake) was manufactured in 2005, and has Shimano Sora shifters.
Are ALL Shimano Sora shifters compatible? Or are only the very recent types compatible?
Does anyone know?
Help... I've got new bike obsession

It is my great privilege to make the centennial toast as we gather here to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Western Surgical Association, which is almost half as old as the republic itself. This is obviously a very happy occasion, a unique surgical Thanksgiving with many of the family gathered. The life spans of great organizations and bodies of thought such as parliaments, churches, and philosophies, unlike those of people, are measured in centuries. By this yardstick, we are just leaving our lusty adolescence to enter great years of strength and vigor. It is with gratitude we pause to give thanks to our forebears who nurtured this association so well.
Our forebears worked in a land where life was hard and their dreams were as large as the horizons. Their breadth of vision and generosity of spirit matched the great plains and magnificent mountains of their new land. They

|Some data on my VonNeida genealogy. While doing some of my research, I came across several stories about a John Vonneida, known as Hairy John, and supposedly some relation of mine, although I haven't been able to verify this. Hairy John lived by a large spring along the road from Hartleton to Aaronsburg. This area subsequently became a state park named Hairy John's. I have included the two stories (legends) about Hairy John which have some similarity but differences also, showing how stories can change as told by different sources.
Please feel free to contact me if you would like to share or correct any information on this VonNeida line.

Two Oklahoma companies could earn $3.8 million in state Quality Jobs incentives
Two companies are in line to receive up to $3.8 million in incentives over 10 years to create 123 jobs through the state's Quality Jobs Program.
Houston-based oil-field service and manufacturer FMC Technologies has qualified to receive up to $1.48 million in incentives to create 73 jobs at its Oklahoma City plant over 10 years.
FMC designs, manufacturers and services oil-field equipment such as surface wellheads and pressure fluid control equipment.
The company's Oklahoma City plant specializes in surface wellheads and began relocating employees there from Houston in 2012, FMC spokesman Patrick Kimball said.
The company plans to eventually have about 120 employees in Oklahoma City, including relocated jobs from Houston and the 73 positions it is creating, Kimball said.
The jobs mostly will be skilled positions relating to assembling and testing the oil-field equipment that FMC makes, he said.
Chicago-based Ambitech Engineering Corp. has qualified for up to $2.3 million in Quality Jobs funding for creating 50 jobs at its Tulsa plant.
Ambitech provides engineering, design construction management and other services to manufacturing companies.
The state Commerce Department screens companies that apply for Quality Jobs incentives. The program gives qualifying companies cash payments worth up to 5 percent of a company's new payroll. The payments are based on payroll numbers, and companies can receive payments for up to 10 years to assist with business expansion or to relocate to Oklahoma.
Most companies must achieve a taxable payroll of at least $2.5 million dollars for four consecutive quarters during the first four years of the program to receive the incentive money.
To qualify for Quality Jobs funding, a company must provide minimum health insurance coverage, and 80 percent of its employees must work at least 30 hours a week.
Oklahoma has inked more than 650 Quality Jobs incentive deals since the program began in 1993. The state has paid out more than $725 million in performance-based wage rebates since the incentive program began.

Posted by ESPN.com's Brian Bennett
You'll see a lot of love/hate relationships here on ESPN.com's college football page today. So it's time to throw in my two cents. The Big East is a unique league, with many things to like and some things that are harder to embrace. Here are five things I love about the conference:
A real league race: Forget those phony-baloney conference championship games. The Big East and the Pac-10 are the only BCS leagues that play a true round-robin conference schedule, which is the best way to determine a champion. And since USC seems to lock up the Pac-10 by late October every year, the Big East has the best and most exciting conference race of the BCS leagues. It helps that conference officials wisely try to schedule what they think will be the most important games for the end of the season, leaving lots of suspense and intrigue throughout the fall. I'll take that anytime over some convoluted tiebreaker system that results in a lackluster conference title-game rematch on a neutral field.
Underdog spirit: The Big East is a weird amalgamation of teams. Syracuse and South Florida have about as much in common as a turtle and an elephant. But what binds the league together is an us-against-the-world mentality. Ever since 2005, when the Big East had to reformulate after the ACC raid, league members have withstood countless attacks on their worthiness to BCS access. What's resulted is that everyone in the conference roots for their league mates in nonconference games in a band-of-brothers way. That's fun to watch.
West Virginia fans' passion: Sure, a lot of Big East fan bases are passionate about their teams. But few match the level of intensity by the Mountaineers' backers. West Virginia is a small state with no pro teams, no other BCS conference programs and a fierce amount of pride. So just about everyone within the borders roots for the Old Gold and Blue and gets goosebumps when they play "Take Me Home, Country Roads" at Milan Puskar Stadium. Plenty of schools around the nation have loyal fans. Hardly any mean more to their state than the Mountaineers.
History being made: Big East teams weren't born yesterday, but sometimes it feels that way. South Florida and Connecticut were nothing before this decade, Cincinnati has really only been good for about the last five years and Louisville became relevant 20 years ago. So every week during the season, it seems like school records and milestones are being forged. That keeps things interesting, and it's an unusual experience to watch as a program literally writes its legacy in front of your eyes.
The media day clambake: This last one is for selfish reasons. Every year, the Big East throws an incredible bash on the night before its media day in scenic Newport, R.I. Attendees are treated to a lavish clambake complete with all-you-can-eat lobster. And it's not just ink-stained wretches gobbling up free food. All the coaches come to the party and bring a handful of their players, and they sit and mingle with everyone else under a big tent. To me, that shows the intimacy of this eight-team league. I can't imagine Nick Saban or Bob Stoops wearing lobster bibs and rubbing elbows with the common folk like that.

This statuette depicts King Pepy I kneeling and offering nu-pots, ritual vessels that held milk or wine. A king would kneel only before a god, so this statuette must have been placed before the statue of a deity in a temple. Inlaid eyes of black and white stone set in copper rims enhance the finely carved figure. The hole above Pepy's forehead originally held a uraeus-cobra, probably metal, signifying royalty.
Catalogue Description:
Small green slate kneeling figure of Mr-y-Rc (Pepy I) holding a wine pot in each hand; eyes inlaid, copper rims, alabaster whites, obsidian pupils. Inscription along front of base (partly missing) and along left side. Condition: Upper right side of headdress chipped; right arm assembled from several fragments but practically intact; right hand broken and portion of wine pot missing; rim of left wine pot slightly chipped; left front of plinth missing, right rear of plinth chipped. Uraeus presumably of metal missing but two holes or insertion remain.

I turned it off and waited a couple of hours and went to get an oil change. The car has been fine since. Should I have it checked out more? Could there be an impending transmission problem that was temporarily fixed by resetting the low oil status?
