| 20110010907 | Method and system for repairing the flow-line of corrugated metal pipes - A system and method for repairing the damaged portion of a flow-line of a Corrugated Metal Pipe is disclosed. A containment mold is created on the interior surface of the CMP using a series of overlapping rigid sheets that are attached to the CMP along the damaged flow-line. This mold is provided with injection ports through which a hydro-insensitive expanding polymer may be injected. External pressure is applied to the rigid sheet during injection and hardening of the polymer. The result is a single monolithic structure forming a patch over the damaged CMP flow-line. | 01-20-2011 |

| 20080301242 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROTECTING CHAT CONTENT - Provided is a method for ensuring the privacy of communication during a computer chat session. The claimed subject matter enables each participant of a chat session to choose whether or not to allow other participants to save, print or archive the text of the session. At the beginning of or during a chat session, a particular participant decides that the chat session should be private. The participant transmits a message indicating the desire to make the chat session private. Each participant receives a pop-up message that communicates the privacy request and is provided the option of accepting or declining the request. If a sufficient number of participants accept the request, programming logic that blocks any attempt to save the chat content to memory is executed with respect to the chat session. Different chat sessions may be configured with different options such as, but not limited to, inclusive and non-inclusive. | 12-04-2008 |

| 20110308888 | HIGH PRESSURE LUBRICATION SYSTEM - An improved lubrication system for use in connection with high pressure processing and particularly useful for LDPE processing. The lubricating system utilizes flow meters to monitor and control the supply pressure and oil flow to a machine lubrication point. Furthermore, two different types of oil may be used so as to alleviate down time and repair often associated with use of food grade oil as the lubricate for the camshaft and other working components of the lubrication system. | 12-22-2011 |
