Title: Employing user-context in connection with backup or restore of data
Inventor: SOSNOSKY LARA M
IPC: G06F15/16
Filed: 2010-03-26
Abstract: The subject application relates to architectures for facili-tating backup or restore features in a manner that leverages event-ori-ented contextual information associated with one or more users of the data to be backed up or restored. In particular, a first restore-based ar-chitecture (100) can interface with an associated second backup-based architecture (400) that hosts or maintains a backup data store in order to retrieve a version of the data file that is desired by a user. Additionally, the first architecture can obtain a log of contextual event descriptions (120) that can be aggregated by the second architecture or obtained in-dependently from, e.g., a social networking service or a calendar appli-cation associated with the user. Thus, in addition to displaying time and date information associated with the desired version, the first architec-ture can provide the user with a social context of events for distinguish-ing between multiple versions of the data file.

Patent CA-2763030-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KENOWSKI MICHAEL A
IPC: A61M16/04
Filed: 2010-04-28
Abstract: There is provided an improved tracheostomy tube (40) having a distal section (34) that over-molds a proximal section (24). The distal section is desirably made from a more flexible polymer than the proximal section to reduce trauma should the distal section contact the tracheal wall. The insertion of the tracheal tube in the trachea results in large forces being exerted on the tube. Forces acting on the tube after installation can also be rather large.  Over-molding of the proximal section by the distal section results in a stronger bond than if the parts are butt-welded. The sections are desirably made from the same polymer and are desirably substantially transparent or clear to visible light so that cameras or other observation means may be used to inspect the tracheal walls through the tracheostomy tube without removing it from the patient.

Abstract: An electrically insulating cross-arm is disclosed for a tower for high-voltage power networks. The cross-arm includes an insulating structural member for attachment to the tower body and to support a conductor cable. The insulating structural member comprises a solid rigid spine extending along a long axis having cross sectional profile, normal to the long axis, having a second moment of area of its cross sectional profile about every axis normal to the long axis and dissecting its centroid has a value of A2/2p or more, where A is the area of the cross sectional profile. The structural member provides resistance to bending and to compressive buckling and allows conductors to be safely supported at reduced tower height. T and Y shaped cross sections provide particularly good water run-off and inhibition of organic growth on the structural member. In addition to use in tower cross arms, the structural members are generally useful as insulator members in high voltage power networks.

Abstract: Provided is a yellow aqueous pigment dispersion in which the pigment can be dispersed to an extremely small particle diameter and which has excellent dispersion stability, rarely suffers sedimentation even when the viscosity is low, and gives an excellent gloss when used as a main component of an ink-jet recording ink. For producing an aqueous pigment dispersion having the characteristics, it is important to first add an acetylene-glycol-based surfactant of a specific structure which has an HLB of 8-12, as a kneading aid, to a mixture comprising a bisactoacetallylide pigment, a styrene/acrylic acid copolymer having an acid value of 145-175, a basic compound, and a wetting agent and then knead the resultant mixture to obtain a pigment dispersion. By dispersing the pigment dispersion in an aqueous medium, an aqueous pigment dispersion for ink-jet recording which has the characteristics can be obtained.

Title: Synthesis of degradable polymers downhole for oilfield applications
Inventor: KHLESTKIN VADIM KAMILEVICH
IPC: C09K8/80
Filed: 2009-12-30
Abstract: A method is given for polymerizing monomers downhole to create well treatment polymers. The monomers each contain two polymerizable groups and a degradable group or groups which allow the polymer to degrade under downhole conditions, for example by hydrolysis. Polymerization downhole allows easier, more precise, placement of polymer. Polymer obtained from monomers pumped downhole may be used, for example, for fluid diversion plugs, isolation plugs, formation consolidation, flowback control, and fluid loss control. Synthesized polymer may form gels, films, solids or other structure in treated wellbores, fractures, and/or formations. After the desired effect is achieved, the deposited polymer degrades and the polymer degradation products dissolve, leaving the wellbore, fracture and/or formation clean, with no damage that might have decreased fluid flow.
