| 20090272774 | Pocketed bicep cuff - The pocketed bicep cuff has retention on a bicep at a bulge area. The bulge area is designed to bulge with a human bicep. The bulging constricts the lower side and the upper side against the bicep so that articles in a pocket section do not move when the arm is moved. A zipper provides access to the pocket section. At the upper side, hook and loop tape secure the upper periphery against the muscle area where the bicep and tricep begin and are attached at the tendons to the bone. Preferably, a looped tape sleeve with a buttonhole provides adherence to hook tape which secures the upper side to the bicep. The upper opening is substantially circular when in use conforming to a bicep upper portion. The bulge area also bulges downward at the tricep so that articles are held against the bicep. | 11-05-2009 |

| 20100230546 | CONTROL SYSTEM AND CONTROL METHOD FOR AIRBORNE FLIGHT - A control system and method for control of a cyclical flying system which uses lift segments, which may be airfoils, which rotate around a central hub, similar to the mechanics of an autogyro. The airfoils may achieve speeds significantly above the wind speed feeding the system. The airfoils may be linked to the central hub by flexible radial tethers which stiffen considerably as the speed of the airfoil increases. The central hub may be linked to the ground with an extendible main tether. Power generation turbines may reside on the airfoils and utilize the high apparent wind speed for power generation. The generated power may travel down the radial tethers and across a rotating power conduit to the main tether and to the ground. The airborne assembly may have the rotational speed of the airfoils, its altitude, and its attitude controlled by using control surfaces linked to the airfoils, or by control of the angle of attack of the airfoils relative to a central hub, or relative to each other. The attitude and altitude sensors and the control system may be airborne and may be part of the rotating assembly. The airborne assembly can be moved to areas of appropriate wind speed for the system using these controls. | 09-16-2010 |

| 20110211444 | Seamless Overlay Connectivity Using Multi-Homed Overlay Neighborhoods - A communication system enables a node to utilize multiple communication interfaces to connect to an overlay network. The use of multiple communication interfaces provides a redundant overlay network connection, thereby enabling a node to maintain connectivity or select a preferred connection to the overlay network, increasing efficiency or reducing costs in the overlay network. A network in which member nodes obtain services in the absence of server-based infrastructure is referred to as a “peer-to-peer overlay network” (or “overlay network” or simply “overlay”). Overlay networks consist of several nodes from hundreds, to thousands, joined together in a logical routing structure. Individual nodes often participate in routing and maintenance aspects of the overlay. Typically an overlay is formed through the enrollment and joining of all these nodes as defined by the overlay protocol. Nodes forming peer-to-peer overlay networks may communicate with each other over various network technologies. | 09-01-2011 |

| 20100020616 | Soft Errors Handling in EEPROM Devices - Soft errors occur during normal use of a solid-state memory such as EEPROM or Flash EEPROM. A soft error results from the programmed threshold voltage of a memory cell being drifted from its originally intended level. The error is initially not readily detected during normal read until the cumulative drift becomes so severe that it develops into a hard error. Data could be lost if enough of these hard errors swamps available error correction codes in the memory. A memory device and techniques therefor are capable of detecting these drifts and substantially maintaining the threshold voltage of each memory cell to its intended level throughout the use of the memory device, thereby resisting the development of soft errors into hard errors. | 01-28-2010 |

| 20090175080 | Flash EEprom System With Simultaneous Multiple Data Sector Programming and Storage of Physical Block Characteristics in Other Designated Blocks - A non-volatile memory system is formed of floating gate memory cells arranged in blocks as the smallest unit of memory cells that are erasable together. The system includes a number of features that may be implemented individually or in various cooperative combinations. One feature is the storage in separate blocks of the characteristics of a large number of blocks of cells in which user data is stored. These characteristics for user data blocks being accessed may, during operation of the memory system by its controller, be stored in a random access memory for ease of access and updating. According to another feature, multiple sectors of user data are stored at one time by alternately streaming chunks of data from the sectors to multiple memory blocks. Bytes of data in the stream may be shifted to avoid defective locations in the memory such as bad columns. Error correction codes may also be generated from the streaming data with a single generation circuit for the multiple sectors of data. The stream of data may further be transformed in order to tend to even out the wear among the blocks of memory. Yet another feature, for memory systems having multiple memory integrated circuit chips, provides a single system record that includes the capacity of each of the chips and assigned contiguous logical address ranges of user data blocks within the chips which the memory controller accesses when addressing a block, making it easier to manufacture a memory system with memory chips having different capacities. A typical form of the memory system is as a card that is removably connectable with a host system but may alternatively be implemented in a memory embedded in a host system. The memory cells may be operated with multiple states in order to store more than one bit of data per cell. | 07-09-2009 |

| 20100217686 | SYSTEM FOR MANAGING COMMUNICATION BETWEEN A REAL ESTATE AGENT AND CLIENTS - An Internet-based system for managing communication between a real estate agent and one or more clients is described. The system allows the real estate agent to provide MLS search results to the clients and the clients can indicate a level of interest for each property. The system facilitates easy two-way communication between the agent and the clients and keeps track of such communication so that the agent and the clients have a ready record of the properties that have been considered and the clients' level of interest in each property. For the agent, the system automates searching and information by client so that the agent can easily keep track of the type of property desired by each client and the properties considered by each client. For each of the clients, the system creates a personalized website that the client can visit at any time to view the new properties located by the agent and to review the properties already considered. Using conventional webpage user interface elements, the clients can indicate a level of interest for each property, thereby saving time for the agent and the client. | 08-26-2010 |
