| 20080312488 | LEAK AND SPILL CONTAINMENT SCALE - A scale assembly for weighing potentially hazardous materials comprise a containment deck designed to support a container from which materials are dispensed. The containment deck is preferably provided with sufficient storage capacity to capture spillage or leaks from the container and is supported on a low-profile platform supported in turn by load cells which generate signals indicative of the weight of the contents of the container and of any spillage within the containment deck. The containment deck is further equipped with a level detector typically positioned near the bottom of the deck for generating signals indicating the presence of leakage or spillage from the container. | 12-18-2008 |

| 20100112713 | Methods For Detecting Colorectal Diseases And Disorders - The present invention relates to methods and compositions for the detection of biomarkers associated with colorectal diseases and disorders. In preferred embodiments, said colorectal disease is colorectal cancer. In some embodiments, the invention relates to the detection of said biomarkers using non-invasive methods. In further embodiments, the invention relates to the isolation and evaluation of biomarkers residing in feces from a subject at risk for or exhibiting symptoms associated with a colorectal disease or disorder. In still further embodiments, said biomarkers include exfoliated colonocytes. In additional embodiments, mRNA transcripts isolated from said colonocytes and associated with said colorectal diseases and disorders are quantified. | 05-06-2010 |

| 20090287064 | COMPUTER IMPLEMENTED COGNITIVE SELF TEST - A computer implemented method for cognitive testing, specifically for dementia-related afflictions. The method is administered on a computer workstation in an interactive, web-based format and screens the cognitive abilities of the patient. The method includes evaluation of five areas of cognitive domain including visuospatial skills and executive function by means of a clock face test, memory, verbal fluency, attention, and orientation, all of which are essential for indications of dementia, including Alzheimer's disease and other cognitive afflictions. The method does not require administration by a trained professional, but rather, is administered in a web browser either from a server to the workstation via the Internet or locally at the workstation. | 11-19-2009 |

| 20090070715 | METHOD FOR ELIMINATING NEGATIVE SLACK IN A NETLIST VIA TRANSFORMATION AND SLACK CATEGORIZATION - A method for eliminating negative slack in a netlist representing a chip design uses a contrived timing environment to overlay information onto the design environment during logic and physical synthesis phase. The overlaid timing information determines which netlist transformation provides a maximum leverage for the negative slack elimination and a way for creating a dynamic transformation recipe tuned for each design. The method further provides upper bounds on the negative slack elimination to prevent the netlist transforms from being applied to situations exceeding the capabilities for improving the design. | 03-12-2009 |
