Title: Gravitational and air transfer electrical generation
Inventor: COLE JEFF
IPC: F03B17/00
Filed: 2006-08-04
Abstract: This invention is an improved system for generating electricity by harnessing natural gravitational forces. A plurality of vessels are placed at the bottom of a deep enclosed chamber of liquid, the vessels being secured around tracking cables which extend within the chamber, and are held in place by the air lock (with guards). Each vessel also has a retention system that is spun around a crankshaft in a mounted spool, the crankshaft being connected to a transmission, which is in turn connected to a generator via a freewheel. The vessels collect released (are pumped with) pressurized air, through bottom openings (valves), the air lock (guards) are released, and the vessels rush to the surface of the chamber along the tracking cables. When the vessels are released the collective force of their release rotates the crankshaft to generate electricity. An upper valve on the vessels is engaged to release the air at the top of the chamber, and are returned, by the force of the rising connected group of vessels (a spring coil on the crankshaft), to the starting position in the bottom of the chamber to continue electrical generation. Each string is connected to 2 transmissions via freewheels, so that as group A rises and recoils group B, the mechanical energy is transferred onto transmission a, but does not effect the reverse moving transmission B. When group B rises, it will recoil group A  to the bottom of its motion path, as well as transferring mechanical energy generated onto transmission B. The process will employ a systematic transfer of air within multiple tanks and collection areas with the use of varying pressure relief valves. This will allow air to be transferred through out the system without being pumped from an external energy source.

Title: Method and system for recruiting for employee positions and employees bidding for the same
Inventor: HERMANN JOHN MICHAEL
IPC: G06Q30/00
Filed: 2005-06-23
Abstract: This method and system provides for an organization to electronically post an open position and for potential candidates to bid on those positions through the use of a "blind bid" system. In addition, the system allows organizations to query a database for potential candidates and directly invite them to bid on available positions, or directly request them to fill available positions for a specified hourly wage rate. The system is highly automated and efficient, requiring far less human interaction to recruit potential candidates. The system also utilizes modern technology such as e-mail, text messaging and the Internet to lessen the need to place recruitment advertisements in traditional media. Qualified candidates are able to quickly find positions and place a bid to fill that position. The candidate registers on the system and submits a requested wage rate with the bid such that the organization may compare the candidates' requisite qualifications and wage rates and choose the candidate that is acceptable to the hiring organization.

Title: Nonaqueous preparation for percutaneous absorption containing nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic
Inventor: MURAI NAOKI
IPC: A61K45/00
Filed: 2004-11-05
Abstract: A nonsteroidal antiflammatory analgesic in the form of an alkali metal salt;  and a nonaqueous preparation for percutaneous absorption which comprises a support and, superposed thereon, a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer comprising a nonaqueous base compounded with an inorganic acid which is more strongly acidic than the nonsteroidal antiflammatory analgesic in its free state. In the nonaqueous preparation for percutaneous absorption, due to the addition of the inorganic acid, the drug in the form of an alkali metal salt has improved solubility in the nonaqueous base and easily moves to the skin surface. Thus, drug releasability from the nonaqueous preparation for percutaneous absorption and drug penetration through the skin can be improved.  Since the inorganic acid has no alcoholic hydroxy group in the structure, the drug does not react with the inorganic acid. The nonaqueous preparation hence undergoes no decrease in drug stability caused by esterification.
