| 20100269566 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETECTING AND MEASURING ETHYL ALCOHOL IN THE BLOOD OF A MOTORIZED VEHICLE DRIVER TRANSDERMALLY AND NON-INVASIVELY IN THE PRESENCE OF INTERFERENTS - This invention relates to a system and method that can quickly and accurately detect and measure ethyl alcohol in the blood of a motorized vehicle driver transdermally and non-invasively within minutes of ethanol consumption and in the presence of interferents. The system includes an array of sensors embedded into the steering mechanism of a motorized vehicle, a data base of patterns produced through empirical testing of various analytes in various combinations and concentrations, neural net based pattern recognition algorithms to ascertain the driver's transdermal alcohol concentration and a database derived from human testing, correlating the driver's transdermal alcohol concentration with the driver's blood alcohol concentration. The detection system is integrated with a motor vehicle decision module which can prevent the operation of a motorized vehicle by a driver whose BAC exceeds a preset limit. | 10-28-2010 |

| 20110191311 | Bi-model recommendation engine for recommending items and peers - A networked peer and item recommendation system makes recommendations to users such as documents of interest and peers with whom the users may want to connect. User profile information is maintained in a profiles database. A log enables the collection of user behavior information. A cluster filtering algorithm determines a cluster that a querying user belongs to. A collaborative filtering algorithm locates other users having implicit and explicit profiles in the database that are similar to the profile of the querying user. A search engine returns items based on a keyword provided by the querying user. A sorting algorithm sorts the items returned by the cluster filtering algorithm, collaborative filtering algorithm and search engine for presentation to the querying user. Potential peers are also presented to the querying user. The items and potential peers presented are those most likely to be of help to the querying user. | 08-04-2011 |

| 20090029510 | MULTIPLE DOPING LEVEL BIPOLAR JUNCTIONS TRANSISTORS AND METHOD FOR FORMING - A process for forming bipolar junction transistors having a plurality of different collector doping densities on a semiconductor substrate and an integrated circuit comprising bipolar junction transistors having a plurality of different collector doping densities. A first group of the transistors are formed during formation of a triple well for use in providing triple well isolation for complementary metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors also formed on the semiconductor substrate. Additional bipolar junction transistors with different collector doping densities are formed during a second doping step after forming a gate stack for the field effect transistors. Implant doping through bipolar transistor emitter windows forms bipolar transistors having different doping densities than the previously formed bipolar transistors. According to one embodiment of the present invention, bipolar junction transistors having six different collector dopant densities (and thus six different breakdown characteristics) are formed. | 01-29-2009 |

| 20090170188 | DIAGNOSTIC SANITARY TEST STRIP - An improved multi-layered diagnostic sanitary test strip for receiving a heterogenous fluid, such as whole blood, to test for presence and/or amount of a suspected analyte in the fluid by facilitating a color change in the strip corresponding to the amount of the analyte in the fluid, wherein the test strip includes fluid volume control dams to prevent spillage of the fluid from the strip and a chemical reagent solution that facilitates end-point testing. The improved test strip comprises no more than two operative layers and: (a) a reaction membrane containing a reagent capable of reacting with the analyte of interest to produce a measurable change in said membrane; (b) an upper support layer defining a sample receiving port for receiving the fluid sample thereat; (c) one or more structures for directing the sample containing the analyte of interest through at least a portion of said reaction membrane; and (d) a lower support layer having a reaction viewing port in vertical alignment with said membrane for displaying said measurable change, said lower support being associated with said upper support to secure said reaction membrane in said test strip. | 07-02-2009 |

| 20120091765 | CHAIR CADDY - A storage assembly for use with a chair. The chair has a seat supported by a framework such as one or more legs. The storage assembly includes at least one storage unit, preferably a plurality of storage units, each having at least one storage feature, such as a recess, drawer, hook, container or case. The storage assembly is attachable to the seat or the supportive framework of the chair below the seat of the chair, and does not protrude substantially therefrom. In an embodiment with a plurality of shelves, the shelves are connected to a support structure such as a pair of side walls. One or more leg attachments operably couple the assembly to one or more chair legs. For example, a leg attachment may connect a wall to a leg. As each shelf is connected to the wall, the leg attachment couples the shelf to the leg, via the wall. The leg attachment may be a pivoting, telescopic arm with a clamp, a belt, snap fit, integrally molded or other suitable connector. The storage assembly may be permanently or removably attached to the chair. | 04-19-2012 |
