| 20080243243 | Implantable medical articles having pro-healing coatings - Coatings including adhesion factors for the surfaces of implantable medical articles are disclosed. The coatings are used to improve the function of the device by promoting a pro-healing response following implantation. The coatings can modulate endothelialization of the article surface to reduce the risk of adverse tissue responses that may reduce the functionality of the device. | 10-02-2008 |

| 20100210481 | Drilling Fluids With Redispersible Polymer Powders - A drilling fluid has a redispersible polymer powder introduced as a water dispersion that is capable of providing a deformable latex film on at least a portion of a subterranean sand formation and which inhibits or controls fluid loss and acts as a sealing agent when used to drill in sand formations for hydrocarbon recovery operations. The redispersible polymer powder may be made by drying the emulsion in which they are formed and then grinding into a powder or by spray drying. The polymer particles of suitable size precipitate or collect or assemble onto the pores of a subterranean sand formation to at least partial seal the formation with a deformable polymer film. | 08-19-2010 |

| 20090217457 | MOLDED SEAT CUSHION WITH INTERNAL SHAPE MATCHING ISCHIAL STRUCTURES | 09-03-2009 |
| 20100205750 | INFLATABLE CELLULAR MATTRESS WITH ALTERNATING ZONES OF INFLATED CELLS - A cushion or mattress comprising a base and a plurality of linearly aligned individual air cells across the base. Groups of individual air cells can be interconnected and in fluid cooperation with an inflation source, such as a pump. In one aspect of the invention, the inflation of adjacent cells is staggered, for example, in a checkerboard-like inflation pattern that helps diffuse load over a wider area. | 08-19-2010 |

| 20100309359 | Cleaning friendly camera privacy feature - Briefly, in accordance with one or more embodiments, an appliance having a camera and camera window may include a shutter puck slidably disposed in a slot in which the camera window may be disposed. The puck may have a wiper pad that is capable of cleaning the camera window as the puck is slid within the slot from a camera on to a camera off or privacy position. The puck may comprise an at least partially deformable material so that the puck may be inserted into and/or removed from the slot by at least partially deforming the puck to allow the puck to be installed in or extracted from the slot. The puck may further include a grip rib structure or the like to allow a user to grasp the puck and slide the puck within the slot. | 12-09-2010 |
| 20110029545 | SYLLABIC SEARCH ENGINES AND RELATED METHODS - An improved search engine, for a computing device or computer network, utilizes search strings comprising complete words and numbers representing a syllable count for each unknown word. Pattern-matching algorithms are utilized to search a document database for documents that match the input search strings. The document database is constructed by analyzing a number of documents, utilizing document-analyzing algorithms. In one embodiment, each database record comprises a document that has been analyzed into one or more groups of word sequences. Each word sequence comprises an ordered list of words in the word sequence, as well as a corresponding ordered list of the syllable count for each word in the word sequence. The syllabic search engine can be implemented in different ways, such as through a software application, operating system, network software, or a custom software module. Improved computers and computer networks for providing a syllabic search function are also described. | 02-03-2011 |

| 20090192871 | Business Social Network Advertising - Tools for enhancing participation in an web-based social network of businesses. For instance, such tools may encourage members of such networks to invite other members, providing viral growth of the network. As another example, the tools may encourage members of such networks to improve their web sites, which effectively will produce more traffic at such web sites. Because, in an aspect, some embodiments also include serving advertisements on web pages at members' web sites, increased traffic at such web sites results in additional “hits” on the served advertisements, producing additional revenue for the member and for the provider that maintains the business social network and/or serves the advertisements. | 07-30-2009 |
