Inventor: LOO YENG WAY
IPC: A47J47/00
Filed: 2004-10-27
Abstract: A cutting board has a cutting platform and a clamp assembly to securely mount the cutting board to a counter edge. The cutting platform has an elevated planar cutting surface supported on a narrower base. The cutting board includes a removable receptacle for location over a sink, and hook features for hanging trash bags. The cutting board uses the narrow counter space located at the front of the sink to provide a useful cutting or chopping surface. The board occupies very little sink space and allows access to the sink and water taps for other washing chores once it is mounted to the counter. The clamp assembly hooks or clamps around the counter edge to prevent the cutting board from toppling during use.

Abstract: For the transmission of a secondary information flow between a transmitter and a receiver, the secondary information flow is inserted at a parametric vocoder of the transmitter which generates a main information flow. The main information flow is a speech data flow encoding a speech signal and is transmitted from the transmitter to the receiver. Bits from the secondary information flow are inserted into only some of the frames of the main information flow, these frames being selected by a frame mask which is known to the transmitter and the receiver, and/or into a determined frame of the main information flow, by imposing a constraint on only some of the bits of the frame, these bits being selected by a bit mask known to the emitter and the receiver.

Title: Imaging array utilizing thyristor-based pixel elements
Inventor: TAYLOR GEOFF W
IPC: H01L27/148
Filed: 2004-10-20
Abstract: An improved imaging array (and corresponding method of operation) includes a plurality of heterojunction thyristor-based pixel elements disposed within resonant cavities formed on a substrate. Each thyristor-based pixel element includes complementary n-type and p-type modulation doped quantum well interfaces that are spaced apart from one another. Incident radiation within a predetermined wavelength resonates within the cavity of a given pixel element for absorption therein that causes charge accumulation. The accumulated charge is related to the intensity of the incident radiation. The heterojunction-thyristor-based pixel element is suitable for many imaging applications, including CCD-based imaging arrays and active-pixel imaging arrays.

Title: Methods of and systems for remote outbound control
Inventor: FINN SEAN P
IPC: H04L12/28
Filed: 2005-09-09
Abstract: The present invention is directed to a system for and a method of selecting a combination of resources for transmitting data from a remote site to a destination site. The method comprises generating a list of combinations of resources at a regional site and transmitting the list to the remote site.  Data is transmitted from the remote site to the regional site using each combination of resources and statistics for each transmission are stored.  Metrics, based on the application at hand, are computed for each set of statistics corresponding to each transmission, and a preferred combination of resources is selected at the regional site based on the metrics. The regional site then transmits to the remote site information corresponding to the preferred combination of resources. The remote site is then configured to transmit data to the destination site using the selected combination of resources. Resources include links with a specified bandwidth, VPN and GRE  tunnels, and routers configured to perform MPLS switching, type-of-service routing, and source routing.

IPC: A01D57/28
Filed: 2006-08-09
Abstract: A rotary platform is provided for the harvest of specialty crops such as grass seed. In particular the conditioning rolls are removed from the header to reduce seed shatter and converging elements are added inside the conditioner opening on both sides and to the rear of the cutterbar to feed the crop around the conditioner opening corner and to the rear of the platform. Additional converging elements are provided behind the first converging elements at a angle less then 90 DEG. to the ground so as to form the top of the windrow so that there is minimal seed loss. The converging elements may or may not be powered and the angle of the second converging element can be adjustable. The rotary knives perform the cutting function more efficiently than a sickle cutterbar, and the converging elements move the crop toward the center to form a windrow with less disturbance.

Title: Systems and methods for remote account control
Inventor: SILBERNAGEL MARK
IPC: G06Q20/00
Filed: 2005-05-17
Abstract: Systems and methods for remotely causing a request for authorization to charge a card, that is otherwise active, to be denied. In one embodiment, an access controller receives a call from a card holder and analyzes ANI and DNIS data received during call setup for the call to select a card account and an action (e.g., turn account OFF) to be taken with respect to the card account. The access controller formulates and sends a message to an account authorization processing system to cause the account authorization processing system to thereafter deny requests for authorization to charge the card account. A  subsequent call to the access controller from the same caller (i.e., a same ANI) will reverse account closure and allow card authorization to proceed.  Feedback, in the form of an Instant Message (IM), email, or audit e signal (busy, ringing) when making the call, may be provided to indicate the success of a change to the state of the account. Embodiments that do not rely on PSTN  infrastructure are also disclosed.

Title: Percutaneous endoprosthesis using suprarenal fixation and barbed anchors
Inventor: MAJERCAK DAVID C
IPC: A61F2/06
Filed: 2007-01-23
Abstract: An endoprosthetic device for treating abdominal aortic aneurysms using suprarenal fixation. A stent ring is anchored in an area above the renal arties using self--flaring barbs that project during the nitinol expansion process. Sutures extend from the stent ring to an area below the renal arties to a bifurcated trunk portion comprising a nitinol fabric on a non-kinking frame. The bifurcated trunk is sealed proximal the iliac arteries and includes iliac leg holders having self-flaring retention struts for non--traumatic holding of iliac leg prosthetics. Suprarenal fixation and collapsible cells having retention projections and barbs that only flare during the nitinol expansion process assist in lowering the devices profile and sheathability for percutaneous delivery and may provide for recapturing the anchored device.
