20090232276X-RAY DETECTION IN PACKAGING - Angle dispersive X-ray diffraction is used to test pharmaceutical products including a dosage form inside packaging, for example a tablet inside a blister pack, without removing the dosage form from the packaging. The dosage form is aligned with a measurement system having an X-ray source for generating X-rays, X-ray optics, and an X-ray detector for detection of X-rays. Then, at least one X-ray signature is measured on a predetermined location on the dosage form. The measured X-ray signature is compared with reference X-ray signatures in a data library.09-17-2009

20090063342CHECK-CASHING/LOAN SYSTEM USING A VARIABLE AMOUNT ELECTRONIC FUNDS CARD - A rechargeable and disposable electronic funds (cash card) issued by a non-financial facility, such as a check cashing facility, a payday loan facility or a short term loan facility, is disclosed where the card substitutes for the cash and is labeled in the name of a bank type financial institution with which the non-financial facility has a relationship. The card can be charged with a variable amount on money. When used at a store for a purchase it can act like a debit card but need not have a name of the holder associated with (or embossed on) it like a gift card, so the user can remain anonymous. The card can be upgraded to a rechargeable or debit/credit card. The card can draw on an account or sub account of the check cashing service or of the bank.03-05-2009
20100007791TELEVISION DISPLAY EDITOR - A system is disclosed that enhances television viewing by providing users the ability to selectively blank a portion of their screen. Broadcasters today often dedicate some percentage of display “real estate” to push additional content (e.g., scores from other games, regional weather forecasts, etc.) via a virtual “ticker tape”. More often than not, the average viewer will find the ticker tape a distraction if not an annoyance after a short period of time. The embodiments discussed herein allow the viewer a means by which to blank that portion of the screen. The user moves a cursor to designate a portion of the screen to be blanked.01-14-2010
20110037324ENERGY CONSERVING (STAND-BY MODE) POWER SAVING DESIGN FOR BATTERY CHARGERS AND POWER SUPPLIES WITH A CONTROL SIGNAL - A system is described that turns off a high power, power supply when a device no longer needs high power. A low power, power supply or a rechargeable battery provides power to determine when the device again needs high power. The low power supply consumes a minimum possible power when the device does not need high power and the power rechargeable battery is not charged. That is, the high power and low power, power supplies are turned on or off based on the real time power consumption need of the device and the charged state of the battery. The power need of the device is monitored by a current shunt monitoring circuit and a control signal monitoring circuit.02-17-2011
20110276448PLUG-IN HYBRID AND ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING SYSTEM - An invention is described that enables a vehicle's electrical energy storage devices to charge in parking areas in which components of this invention are installed. The amount of energy consumed, combined with the amount charged are the components of a transaction. An embodiment allows the vehicle owner to have the cost of the energy consumed charged to his home electric bill. Another embodiment allows the vehicle owner to have the cost of the energy consumed charged to his home electric bill by recording his personal identification number at a kiosk or other input device co-locate at the parking area.11-10-2011

According to the invention, in addition to the friction roller (09-17-2009
20110146221YARN BRAKE FOR A TWO-FOR-ONE TWISTING SPINDLE - A yarn brake for a two-for-one twisting spindle has a brake element mounted in the region of a hollow axle of the spindle between an upper and a lower brake face, the braking force being predeterminable in a defined manner by means of the pretensioning of at least one spring element, which acts on an axially displaceably mounted upper piston, in which the upper brake face is integrated, and the yarn brake being pneumatically releasable to introduce a yarn. The upper piston (06-23-2011

20080221935SYSTEM FOR INDIVIDUAL RETRAINING ASSOCIATED WITH A JOB LOSS - The system described herein allows an individual or worker who has a job to select a different occupation to be trained for in the event of a job loss. The information about the new occupation, such as cost of education, books, etc. along with the cost of living during the retraining and subsequent job search and the probability of job loss are used to determine a periodic payment for such retraining. This payment is made while the individual works. When the individuals loses the job, the individual is provided with living expenses, occupation retraining and job location assistance.09-11-2008
20090012809SYSTEM FOR INDIVIDUAL RETRAINING WITH A SAVINGS COMPONENT - The system described herein allows an individual or worker who has a job to select a different occupation for which to be trained. The information about the new occupation, such as cost of education, books, etc. along with the cost of living during the retraining and subsequent job search and the probability of job loss are used to determine a savings target and, if needed, a periodic savings amount.01-08-2009
