Title: Rod clamping devices for hanging or pulling rod strings in a wellbore
Inventor: WOLLMANN ARNOLD
IPC: E21B19/06
Filed: 2012-10-25
Abstract: Clamping devices for hanging or pulling wellbore rod strings each feature housing with an axial bore in which a number of clamping pieces are placed to wedge in place between the housing and rod string to perform a self-tightening action against the rod string under the weight thereof due to cooperation of beveled surfaces at the bore wall and exterior of the clamping pieces. Threaded fasteners fed through the housing wall aid in placement of the slips against the rod string. For use in pulling operations, the housing is sized for receipt in the latching mechanism of a tubing elevator for support by the same, whereby the tubing elevator can be used to pull out a stuck rod string. Some embodiments feature a circumferential gap in the housing to enable the housing to be slipped laterally onto the rod string.

Title: Combinations including cry34ab/35ab and cry6aa proteins to prevent development of resistance in corn rootworms(diabrotica spp.)
Inventor: NARVA KENNETH E
IPC: A01H5/10
Filed: 2011-04-22
Abstract: The subject invention relates in part to Cry34Ab/35Ab in combination with Cry6Aa. The subject invention relates in part to the surprising discovery that combinations of Cry34Ab/Cry35Ab and Cry6Aa are useful for preventing development of resistance (to either insecticidal protein system alone) by a corn rootworm (Diabrotica spp.) population. Included within the subject invention are plants producing these insecticidal Cry proteins, which are useful to mitigate concern that a corn rootworm population could develop that would be resistant to either of these insecticidal protein systems alone. Plants (and acreage planted with such plants) that produce these two insecticidal protein systems are included within the scope of the subject invention. The subject invention also relates in part to combinations of Cry34Ab/35Ab and Cry3Aa proteins "triple stacked" with a Cry6Aa protein. Transgenic plants, including corn, comprising a cry6Aa gene, cry34Ab/35Ab genes, and a cry3Aa gene are included within the scope of the subject invention. Thus, such embodiments target rootworms with three modes of action.

Title: Integration techniques for steam generation and produced water treatment for thermal in situ recovery operations
Inventor: GU MICHAEL
IPC: C02F9/00
Filed: 2013-01-10
Abstract: Techniques for generating steam and treating de-oiled produced water can include various steps that involve recycling certain streams and using a Once Through Steam Generator (OTSG). A first de-oiled produced water stream can be softened to produce softened water. A second de-oiled produced water stream can be subjected to evaporation to produce a distillate. Portions of the distillate and the softened water can be fed as a boiler feed water stream to an OTSG to produce wet steam, which is separated into dry steam and a blowdown stream with a concentrated level of impurities.  At least a recycle portion of the blowdown stream can be sent back as part of the boiler feed water stream. In addition, multiple steam generation trains, which each use an OTSG, can be integrated to reuse certain aqueous streams.

Inventor: FLIAM RICHARD
IPC: H04N21/231
Filed: 2013-02-04
Abstract: A content delivery network may provide content items to requesting devices using a popularity-based distribution hierarchy. A central analysis system may determine popularity data for a content item stored in a first caching device. At a later time, the central analysis system may determine that a change in the popularity data is beyond a threshold value. The central analysis system may then transmit an instruction to move the content item from the first caching device to a second caching device in a different tier of caching devices than the first caching device. The central analysis system may update a content index to indicate that the content item has been moved to the second caching device. A user device may then be redirected to request the content item directly from the second caching device.

Patent CA-2842421-A1 (CA)
Title: Lined femoral cup
Inventor: TERMANINI ZAFER
IPC: A61F2/32
Filed: 2012-07-18
Abstract: The lined femoral cup of the invention is used in a new reverse hip prosthesis wherein the cup is affixed to the femur and the ball is affixed to the acetabulum. This permits installation of the liner in the factory instead of the operating room. Prior art hip prostheses require installation of the liner in the operating room because the cup must be affixed to the acetabulum, usually by screws, before the liner can be installed. Thus, in a preferred embodiment of the invention the liner is installed under high pressure in the factory. In a second embodiment, a threaded cap is used which permits replacement of the liner without removing the cup from the patient.
