| 20110196804 | COMPUTER-ENABLED METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR FACILITATING VETERINARY PHARMACEUTICAL AND OTHER ANIMAL-RELATED PRODUCT TRANSACTIONS - A computer-enabled method and system for generating a script for veterinary pharmaceutical and other animal-related product transactions comprising aggregation of participant data, including animal hospital data, veterinarian data, client data and animal data into the script, adding treatment regimen data to one or more orders associated with the script in accordance with the veterinarian's treatment plan, to enable determination of the initial date to begin filling the product, quantity of product, the number of fills and frequency to enable automatic generation of a series of autoship records including projected dates for shipping the orders to the animal owner upon verification of funds available, to print usage instructions, Rx labels, product information, shipping labels and packing slips, and to send notification emails to the animal owner and confirmation emails to the animal hospital. | 08-11-2011 |

| 20080284196 | LOW PROFILE SEAT STOWAGE MECHANIZATION - A seat stowage system for a vehicle having a spare tire tub comprises a seat assembly including a seatback cushion having an occupiable surface and an opposing cargo load surface and a base cushion having an occupiable surface and an underside surface. A translational joint assembly operatively connects the seatback cushion and the base cushion. The translational joint assembly allows the seat assembly to transition between an occupiable and a stowed position while utilizing the foot well and not interfering with or obstructing the spare tire tub. | 11-20-2008 |

| 20100128078 | Method of Preventing the Formation of Inkjet Printing Artifacts - A method for compensating for a tendency for droplets deposited by a plurality of nozzles of an ink jet printer to merge in the direction of printing on a substrate, comprising: identifying lines of pixels to be printed by each nozzle which have a grey level greater than a first threshold value; selecting certain of those pixels which are separated by a distance in the printing direction determined by a probability function and reducing the grey level of those certain pixels below a second threshold value so as to prevent merging of drops in the printing direction. | 05-27-2010 |

| 20100007898 | Printer and Method for Printing - A method for controlling the printing of overlapping swathes, the swathes extending perpendicular to a succession of print lines; for each print line a transition is defined between one swathe and the next, with the location of the transition in the print line varying between print lines, for example varying pseudo-randomly or as a curve extending in the swathe direction. | 01-14-2010 |

| 20110261101 | Method and Apparatus for Droplet Deposition - A method for depositing droplets onto a substrate employs an apparatus, such as an inkjet printhead, the apparatus having: an array of channels, acting as fluid chambers, separated by interspersed walls, with each channel communicating with an aperture or nozzle for the release of droplets of a fluid contained within the channel, such as ink. Each of the walls separates two neighbouring channels and is actuable such that, in response to a first voltage, it will deform so as to decrease the volume of one channel and increase the volume of the other channel, and, in response to a second voltage, it will deform so as to cause the opposite effect on the volumes of the neighbouring channels. The method includes the steps of: receiving input data, such as an array of image data pixels; assigning, based on the input data, all the channels within the array as either firing channels or non-firing channels so as to produce groups of one or more contiguous firing channels separated by groups of one or more contiguous non-firing channels; actuating the walls of certain channels so that, for each non-firing chamber, either the walls move with the same sense or they remain stationary, and, for each firing chamber, either the walls move with opposing senses, or one wall is stationary while the other is moved. These actuations result in each of the firing channels releasing at least one droplet of fluid, the resulting droplets forming dots disposed on a straight line on said substrate, for example so as to form a representation of a line of image data pixels. The dots are separated on the line by gaps corresponding to the non-firing channels. | 10-27-2011 |

| 20110261119 | Method and Apparatus for Droplet Deposition - A method for depositing droplets onto a substrate employs an apparatus, such as an inkjet printhead, the apparatus having: an array of channels, acting as fluid chambers, separated by interspersed walls, with each channel communicating with an aperture or nozzle for the release of droplets of a fluid contained within the channel, such as ink. Each of the walls separates two neighbouring channels and is actuable such that, in response to a first voltage, it will deform so as to decrease the volume of one channel and increase the volume of the other channel, and, in response to a second voltage, it will deform so as to cause the opposite effect on the volumes of the neighbouring channels. The method includes the steps of: receiving input data, such as an array of image data pixels; selecting pairs of adjacent channels based on the input data; assigning the selected pairs of adjacent channels as firing channels and the remaining channels as non-firing channels. While the pairs of firing channels may generally have any spacing, one of the pairs of firing channels is spaced apart from another of the pairs of firing channels by an odd number of non-firing channels. Within each of these selected pairs, the separating wall of that pair is actuated so as to cause the release of at least one droplet from each of said firing channels. The actuations for all the pairs overlap in time so as to ensure a high level of throughput or printing speed. | 10-27-2011 |

| 20110270164 | Nursing extension device - The invention is a device for allowing breast-feeding of infants to occur from a short distance away without the steps involved in pumping and bottle-feeding mother's milk. An example of such use is while mother and infant are riding in a car remaining safely buckled into a car seat and seat belt, respectively. The one- or three-piece device connects mother to infant via flexible tubing with an open-centered, adhesive breast shield to collect milk at one end and an artificial nipple for suckling at the other end. The invention can be easily cleaned and sterilized for multiple uses. The device can be a simple, single unit or three simple easily detachable pieces to allow for even easier production and cleaning. | 11-03-2011 |

| 20110264812 | DYNAMIC CONNECTION MANAGEMENT ON MOBILE PEER DEVICES - Dynamically evaluating candidate connections as alternatives to an active connection between a first computing device and a second computing device. The first computing device transitions to one of the candidate connections to replace the active connection based on the evaluation. The evaluation and transition occurs based on time intervals, events, or conditions. Maintaining the candidate connections enables mobile devices, for example, to be resilient to and tolerant of topology changes affecting the active connection. | 10-27-2011 |

| 20100083255 | NOTIFICATION BATCHING BASED ON USER STATE - Batching messages such as notifications intended for a user to preserve battery life on a computing device associated with the user. A server such as a proxy server receives the messages from one or more service providers. The proxy server maintains a state of the user. If the state indicates that the user is idle, the messages are stored at the proxy server unless the messages correspond to activating messages. The activating messages are sent to the user upon receipt. The stored messages are sent when the state changes to an active state or when a defined duration of time elapses. In some embodiments, the messages are presence notifications in an instant messaging session on a mobile computing device. By reducing the frequency of sent notifications, the battery life of the mobile computing device is preserved. | 04-01-2010 |
