| 20090120950 | CENTER-PULL PAPER TOWEL DISPENSER - A center-pull dispenser for dispensing paper towels from a continuous roll, wherein each individual towel is separated from an adjoining towel by a plurality of perforations. The dispenser comprises a housing having a housing back and a detachable front cover hingedly connected thereto at the lower periphery of said housing back and front cover for opening and closing the housing, a paper support tray removably connected to a lower portion of the housing back and having a centrally located dispensing nozzle, an opening in the lower periphery of the housing through which the towels are dispensed, a detachable wall-mounting member for removably mounting the housing back to a wall, and a locking member for releasably locking the front cover to the housing back and the housing back to the wall-mounting member. In one embodiment, the housing cannot be removed from the wall-mounting member without first unlocking the locking member, and the housing and the housing back are removable from the wall without removing the wall-mounting member from the wall. In another embodiment, the paper support tray comprises locking arms for releasably locking first hinge elements on the lower periphery of said front cover against second hinge elements on the lower periphery of said housing back. | 05-14-2009 |

| 20090303666 | THERMOPLASTIC ELECTRICAL ENCLOSURE - An electrical enclosure is made of a thermoplastic material such as a polycarbonate material. The enclosure includes a box and a lid hinged to the box along its back edge. A top edge of the box and a bottom edge of the lid are shaped to engage and hold a resilient seal when the lid is closed. The lid may be moved between an open position and a closed position. The lid is held in the closed position by a tongue and dog fastener arrangement. One of the lid and box has a dog that projects from the front edge of the box while a resilient tongue projects from the other of the box and lid. The tongue has an opening that receives the dog when the lid is closed in order to hold the lid closed. An extension of the tongue projects past the opening and at an angle to create a space for manual engagement to pry the tongue away from the dog when it is required to open the box. A pair of hasp members, one part of the tongue and the other part of the one of the box and lid from which the dog projects, are aligned with each other when the lid is closed. The hasp members have holes that permit a lock or other retaining pin to be inserted in order to inhibit unintentional opening of the enclosure. The enclosure includes external mounting flanges to secure the enclosure to a supporting structure. The enclosure also may include internal rails integrally formed with the box for mounting electrical components. No metal inserts are included in the enclosure. | 12-10-2009 |

| 20100169795 | Method and Apparatus for Interrelating Virtual Environment and Web Content - Interaction with web content in a web browser can control actions in an embedded virtual environment, and events in the virtual environment can be used to update content and applications running in the web browser. In one embodiment, particular events in the virtual environment are passed to a mapping component that listens for triggers and issues commands in the web browser. A JavaScript mapping component may be used to listen for the triggers, capture parameters associated with the trigger, lookup the trigger type in a mapping table, and call a mapped JavaScript function with the trigger parameters. In the reverse direction, if a JavaScript function call is entered in the web browser, the JavaScript function invokes a function exposed by a virtual environment plugin. The plug-in invokes an event within the virtual environment so that interaction with the web content can control actions in the virtual environment. | 07-01-2010 |

| 20090308324 | DIABETES TESTS - A method for diagnosing susceptibility to diabetes in a dog, the method comprising: (a) (i) detecting in a sample from the dog the presence or absence of a genotype in any one of the following immune system genes: CTLA-4, IGF-2, IL-1α, IL-4, IL-6, IL-1O, IL-12β, IFNγ, PTPN3, PTPN15, PTPN22, TNF, or RANTES; and/or (ii) determining in a sample from the dog whether a genotype identified in Table 1 or 3A, or a genotype in linkage disequilibrium with said genotype identified in Table 1 or 3 A, is present in an insulin or IGF gene of the dog; and/or (iii) determining in a sample from the dog whether a genotype identified in Table 2 or 3B, or a genotype in linkage disequilibrium with said genotype identified in Table 2 or 3B, is absent in an insulin or IGF gene of the dog; and (b) thereby diagnosing whether the dog is susceptible to diabetes. | 12-17-2009 |
| 20100184640 | DOG DIABETES - A method a method for diagnosing susceptibility to diabetes in a non-human animal, the method comprising: a) identifying whether or not a polymorphism as defined in Table 4 or a polymorphism which is in linkage disequilibrium with such a polymorphism is present in the genome of the animal; and b) thereby diagnosing whether the animal is susceptible to diabetes, wherein optionally the said identifying is carried out on a sample from the animal. | 07-22-2010 |
| 20100197808 | METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING MHC ALLELES IN DOGS - A method for identifying one or more MHC alleles present in a dog, the method comprising: (a) determining the nucleotide present at the or each polymorphic position specified for the one or more MHC alleles in any one of Tables 4 to 6 or determining the nucleotide(s) present at a polymorphic position(s) in linkage disequilibrium with one or more polymorphic positions specified in Tables 4 to 6; and (b) identifying therefrom the presence or absence of one or more MHC alleles in the dog. Based on the comparison between alleles, it was possible to specify a minimum number of SMP positions that need to be determined in order to identify a particular allele (Table 4 to 6). | 08-05-2010 |

| 20100296079 | SENSING SYSTEM AND METHOD - A sensing system is configured to detect physical parameters of a fluid sample. In particular, the sensing system is configured to detect the dew point of the fluid by reducing temperature of a sensing medium and detecting the fluid condensate on a sensing surface by directing light from a light source to the sensing surface and detecting the light reflected off the sensing surface onto a light detector. The light source and the light detector are on the opposite side of the sensing medium from the sensing surface. | 11-25-2010 |

| 20090081989 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR FINANCIAL TRANSACTION INTEROPERABILITY ACROSS MULTIPLE MOBILE NETWORKS - A processor-readable medium stores code representing instructions to cause a processor to perform a process is described. The code includes code to receive from a first mobile device associated with a first network a minute transfer request. The minute transfer request is operative to transfer data associated with an allowable use time of the first mobile device from an account associated with the first mobile device associated with the first network to an account associated with a second mobile device associated with a second network different than the first network. The code includes code to send from the first network to the account associated with the second mobile device the data associated with the allowable use time based on the minute transfer request.
