Patent CA-2572462-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MALIK KHURRAM ZAKA
IPC: H03K19/096
Filed: 2005-06-27
Abstract: This disclosure is directed to techniques for reducing erroneous static logic signals when logic signals change relative to a clock signal within a dynamic to static logic converter circuit. Domino logic circuits, for example, utilize dynamic logic signals evaluated relative to a clocking signal. When dynamic logic signals are evaluated, logic signals propagate within logic circuits.  Dynamic to static logic converter circuits possess logic signals used to generate static logic signals that change state at well defined points in time relative to a clocking signal used by dynamic logic. Use of a delay (103) for a clocking signal (112) by a latch circuit (102) utilized to capture a dynamic logic signal (113) for conversion to a static logic signal reduces logic level changes in static logic signals during times in which dynamic logic signals may be indeterminate. Use of current limiting circuit elements associated with the latch circuit may further reduce logic level changes during these times in which dynamic logic signals may be indeterminate.

Patent CA-2601524-A1 (CA)
Title: Treatment of bioprosthetic tissues to mitigate post implantation calcification
Inventor: DOVE JEFFREY S
IPC: A61L27/36
Filed: 2006-03-24
Abstract: The present invention provides methods for treating tissue to inhibit post-implant calcification of a biological tissue. In one method of this invention, a tissue is immersed in or otherwise contacted with a pretreated glutaraldehyde solution, i.e., a heat-treated or pH-adjusted glutaraldehyde solution. The tissue may be partially fixed with glutaraldehyde prior to, after, or concurrently with the step of contacting the tissue with the pretreated gluteraldehyde. Contact with the pretreated gluteraldehyde produces free amine groups on the tissue, which are subsequently blocked by contacting the crosslinked tissue with a blocking agent. In another embodiment, a tissue is contacted with either a non- pretreated glutaraldehyde or a pH-adjusted glutaraldehyde solution for a period of time sufficient to crosslink the tissue. The crosslinked tissue is then treated with a reducing agent that reduces aldehyde and carboxylic acid groups on the fixed tissue.

Title: Compact audio reproduction system with large perceived acoustic size and image
Inventor: POLK MATTHEW S JR
IPC: H04R5/00
Filed: 2006-05-31
Abstract: A compact audio reproduction system for two input signals includes at least four loudspeakers disposed at the vertices of a quadrilateral and such that no two loudspeakers are located at a distance from one another which is less than one-fourth the greatest distance between any two loudspeakers. The two input signals are connected to alternate speakers such that no two loudspeakers produce the same signal, thus a listener perceives a sound source larger than the quadrilateral and significant stereo image. The signals received b two loudspeakers located at adjacent vertices may receive signals which are equalized separately from the signals received by the other loudspeakers. Two loudspeakers may be delayed by a time corresponding to a sound distance relating the distances between loudspeakers, for the purpose of reducing comb filtering and improving the perception of large sound source size and stereo imaging for listeners at arbitrary locations.

Abstract: Over the course of decades, man has relied on the internal combustion engine to power such things as a car engine.     Although efficient, fossil fuels are needed to power such engines, with a cost, not only to the environment but also for refueling.     By resorting to the electro - mechanical piston engine to power such things as a car, you eliminate the need to burn fossil fuels which result in global warming and green house gases, which are currently destroying our environment.     With the onboard charging system, you have the ability to charge the batteries while on the go, thus eliminating the need for refueling.
