20150024831 | METHOD, SYSTEM AND PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR CONTESTS INVOLVING PREDICTION OF DECIMALS - A method, system and program product comprise entering at least one estimate of a decimal value of a parameter that is measurable from a predetermined event category. At least the estimate value is stored in a non-transitory computer-readable storage media. One or more computer processers combine the estimate with at least one determined entry allowance value to produce at least one winning range values. The determined entry allowance value and the winning range values are stored with the estimate value. The one or more computer processors receive the parameter, determine the decimal value, determine at least one winning estimate by, at least in part, calculation using the decimal value and the stored values, and communicate the determination of the winning estimate. The determination of the winning estimate is received wherein a winning estimate is awardable a prize. | 01-22-2015 |

20100249587 | ANGIOGRAPHIC INJECTOR AND INJECTION METHOD - An angiographic injector system includes a manifold and valve which selectively connects either a syringe pump or a low pressure system to a catheter which is inserted into a patient. The valve is normally biased to a state which connects the low pressure system to the catheter for pressure monitoring, saline flushing, or aspirating functions. When an injection is to be made, the valve automatically switches so that the low pressure system is disconnected and not exposed to high pressure, while the syringe pump is connected through the manifold to the catheter. | 09-30-2010 |
