20100004467COMPOUNDS COMPRISING A LINEAR SERIES OF FIVE FUSED CARBON RINGS, AND PREPARATION THEREOF - The present application discloses methods for the production of organic compounds comprising a linear series of five fused carbon rings. Such compounds are useful in the production of electronic components, devices and materials. For example the methods disclosed permit the production of 2,9- and 2,10-disubstituted pentacene compounds and 2,6,9,13- and 2,6,10,13-tetrasubstituted compounds that present particularly advantageous properties for the manufacture of semiconductor materials, and may be used in devices such as for example thin film transistors and solar cells. These features are enhanced by π-π parallel stacking in the solid state. Also disclosed are compounds that are excellent candidates for use in the manufacture of semiconductor materials, and other components of electronic systems, by virtue of their solubility, crystal packing geometries, and electronic properties.01-07-2010

20120104850SINGLE PHASE POWER FACTOR CORRECTION SYSTEM AND METHOD - A single phase grid correction system for correcting the power factor of an electrical power grid. The grid has a generator, transmission lines connecting the generator to distribution nodes, feeder lines radiating from each node, and groups of consumers connected to each feeder line. A capacitor bank is located at a number of consumer's premises, indoors, either beside or forming part of the consumer's normal single phase electric panel. A set of remotely controlled switches at the consumer's premises permits the capacitor banks to be switched in and out of grid connection and also allows non-essential high energy consuming loads, not necessarily inductive, to be switched on and off the grid. The grid correction systemic are widely distributed at consumer's premises throughout the grid. By remotely controlling the switches, the utility operator can switch capacitor banks at selected consumer premises in or out of the grid to provide or remove reactive power as needed, and can also selectively remove load from the grid to reduce the likelihood of sudden uncontrollable load shedding. 05-03-2012

20110238466METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SOFT LIMITS FOR ADVERTISEMENT SERVING - An approach is provided for caching advertisements on a device according to soft limits. Caching of an advertisement is caused, at least in part at the device. It is determined that a soft limit associated with the advertisement has been met. The soft limit specifies when to request one or more other advertisements to be downloaded to the cache. Presentation of the advertisement, the other advertisements, or a combination thereof is caused, at least in part, based on validity information associated with the advertisement.09-29-2011

20080258491Transparent Outer Panel for a Retractable Hardtop - A retractable vehicle hardtop has a predominantly transparent top roof panel and a predominantly transparent combined back light/sail panel. The panels are attached to a top stack linkage that is used to retract and extend the hardtop. The top roof panel and combined back light/sail panel each feature a smooth, continuous two-part retractable hardtop that provides panoramic overhead views both when retracted and when extended. A frame is assembled to opaque peripheral portions of the top roof panel. Reinforcement bars are assembled to opaque portions of the combined back light/sail panel. A method of making the retractable hardtop is also disclosed.10-23-2008
