| 20100070306 | Patient Community System With Anonymized Electronic Medical Data - A computerized system allows intercommunication of patients with respect to the treatment of their diseases. This system includes an electronic medical record database providing electronic medical records of a given set of patients as developed by healthcare professionals and linked to an anonymous identifier for each patient and a set of terminal devices accessible to the patients allowing for the electronic exchange of information through a display and data input device. A server system connects the anonymous medical record database and the terminal devices and executes a stored program to: (1) allow an authenticated connection by a given patient to the server system through a terminal device and associate the connection with an anonymous identifier; (2) permit authoring by the given patient of a patient site viewable on a terminal device incorporating medical records from the anonymous medical record database associated with the anonymous identifier; and (3) identify to the given patient other patient sites for other patients having shared medical conditions according to a predetermined clustering of data of the anonymous medical record database. | 03-18-2010 |
| 20100131298 | Simplified System for Sharing Medical Information Between Institutions - A computer-implemented system for transferring clinical medical data between healthcare institutions. The system includes a first electronic medical record system configured to maintain electronic medical records for a patient at a first healthcare institution and an integrated web browser configured to allow a patient at the first healthcare institution to connect to a web-based portal page of a second electronic medical record system at a second healthcare institution through the first electronic medical record system, wherein the web-based portal page is configured to provide information from the second electronic medical record system to be displayed through the integrated web browser. The system further includes a medical record parser configured to parse the displayed information for storage in the first electronic medical record system. | 05-27-2010 |

| 20100020562 | Light system - A vehicle may include a tail light and a brake light. The tail light may be used at night or in other low light or low visibility conditions to indicate the presence of the lead vehicle to a vehicle or a person traveling behind the lead vehicle. The brake light may be used to indicate that the brakes are being applied to the lead vehicle. The brake light may be a shade of red in color. The tail light may be a different color than the brake light. For example, the tail light may be blue, green, purple, brown, shades of these colors, or variations of these colors. The tail light is a different color to distinguish the lighted state of the tail light from the activation of the brake light. | 01-28-2010 |

| 20110173316 | RELATIONSHIP BASED REPRESENTATION OF PARTICIPANTS IN SHARED ONLINE SPACE - One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for presenting members of a shared online space to a user of the shared online space. A relationship value is determined between the user and a member of the shared online space by: determining an interaction value for the user and member relationship based on the user's and member's co-presence in the shared online space; determining a social network value for the user and member relationship based on a number of social network connections between the user and member; and combining the interaction value and social network value. The relationship value is associated with a specified visual representation of the member used in the shared online space, and two or more visual representations of members are scaled in the user's display in the shared online space in order to fit an available screen space, based on the relationship value. | 07-14-2011 |

| 20090255308 | Hydroforming Die Adjustable for Springback Correction - The invention provides a hydroforming apparatus for forming a length of tube. A hydroforming press includes an upper platen and a lower plate. A first die set is provided for forming a first lengthwise portion of the tube and a second die set provided adjacent the first die set which forms a second lengthwise portion of the tube. A first pivot acts between a first and second upper die so that the second upper die can be pivotally adjusted on the upper platen relative to the first upper die. A second pivot acts between a first and second lower die so that the second lower die can be pivotally adjusted on the lower platen relative to the first lower die. A die insert is provided having an upper die insert and a lower die insert that define upper and lower insert cavities that connect together the first and second cavity portions of the upper die set and the lower die set. This die insert is removably mounted as needed to accommodate the pivotal adjustment between the first and second die sets. | 10-15-2009 |
