| 20110283546 | Circular Blade Cutting Tool - A cutting tool comprising a main body, a blade shield, a support arm and a circular blade. The main body includes a first guide surface along an edge of the main body and a first blade slot recessed in the main body and opening to the first guide surface. The blade shield has a second guide surface extending generally parallel to and in spaced relation to the first guide surface to define a gap therebetween, with the blade shield also having a second blade slot recessed in the blade shield and opening to the second guide surface. The support arm is secured to the main body and the blade shield to hold the main body and the blade shield in spaced relation. The circular blade is removably secured in the first blade slot and extends through the gap into the second blade slot. | 11-24-2011 |

| 20120021396 | SYSTEM AND RELATED METHOD FOR INSTRUCTING PRACTITIONERS RELATIVE TO APPROPRIATE MAGNITUDE OF APPLIED PRESSURE FOR DENTAL PROCEDURES - System and method for teaching a dental practitioner an appropriate pressure to apply during a dental procedure. The system includes a dental tool for use in a dental procedure and a substrate including a coating of a removable scratch-off material. The scratch-off material is adhered to the substrate so as to have an adherence strength that is specifically configured so that the scratch-off material coating is removable from the substrate by manipulating the dental tool against the scratch-off material coating upon application of a minimum threshold pressure that is substantially equal to that to be applied during a selected actual dental procedure. In this manner, an inexperienced practitioner is able to learn the appropriate magnitude of pressure to be applied during a procedure (e.g., application and burnishing of a hemostatic composition into bleeding soft tissue) in a non-threatening environment without having to actually work on a live, bleeding patient. | 01-26-2012 |

| 20110203745 | LOUVERED PRIVACY SCREEN FOR SINGLE- AND DOUBLE-HUNG SASH WINDOWS - An inexpensive and easy to install privacy screen for a single- or double-hung sash window. The invention comprises a plurality of horizontal louvers that are translucent and flexible, and a pair of vertical side members having a plurality of parallel slits. The louvers are affixed in parallel at both ends to the vertical side members by insertion into the slits. When installed in an open single- or double-hung sash window, the invention permits air circulation and the passage of natural light into an enclosed space, while maintaining an occupant's privacy. The invention is to be installed above or below a first sash of the window so as to allow the user to move a second sash to open and close the window with the invention in place. | 08-25-2011 |
