| 20100109739 | ACTIVE GUARDING FOR REDUCTION OF RESISTIVE AND CAPACITIVE SIGNAL LOADING WITH ADJUSTABLE CONTROL OF COMPENSATION LEVEL - In various embodiments, applicants' teachings are related to an active guarding circuit and method for reducing parasitic impedance signal loading on a signal-transmission channel that is shunted by a parasitic impedance. The presence of an electrical signal on the signal-transmission channel causes a leakage current to flow through the parasitic impedance. In various embodiments, the circuit comprises an amplifier and an impedance, one terminal of the impedance is coupled to the signal-transmission channel. The input of the amplifier is coupled to the signal-transmission channel and the output is coupled to the other terminal of the impedance so as to cause a compensation current to flow through the impedance. The gain of the amplifier and the value of the impedance are selected so that the compensation current has a magnitude substantially equal to the leakage current magnitude. | 05-06-2010 |

| 20090210268 | BULK ORDER MANAGEMENT - A method includes creating a bulk order. The bulk order includes a plurality of action sets. Each action set represents a set of changes to a plurality of assets, and the bulk order represents, for a plurality of accounts, a plurality of services and assets. The method also includes validating the bulk order. The validating includes verifying a validity of a user name, which includes a validity of an association between the user name and the account and a validity of an association between the user name and the service. The validating also includes verifying the action set obeys a constraint of the product. The method also includes submitting the bulk order for execution of the set of changes. The submitting includes preparing the action set, executing the set of changes and changing a status of the bulk orders header to indicate a completion of the bulk order. | 08-20-2009 |

| 20100126929 | MEMBRANE SUPPORTED BIOFILM APPARATUS AND PROCESS - A membrane supported biofilm apparatus has a plurality of hollow fiber gas permeable membranes in a tank containing water to be treated. The membranes have an outside diameter of about 200 microns or less and occupy between 0.5% and 4% of the tank volume. A biofilm supported on the membranes occupies between about 40% and 80% of the volume of water to be treated in a reactor. The membranes may be oriented generally vertically and a spreader may be located near the bottom of the apparatus to disperse the membranes. Wastewater treatment processes are described. A process to dentrify water or treat oxidized contaminants comprises introducing hydrogen into an inner volume of the membranes to grow autotrophic organisms in the biofilm near the membrane and heterotrophic organism near the water. Another process is operated at a biomass concentration of at least 10 g/L and up to about 40 g/L to maintain a biofilm having a surface area of over 1000 square metres per cubic metre of tank volume. A hybrid process has suspended biomass and a membrane supported biofilm. | 05-27-2010 |

| 20090315009 | GATE BRACKET - A gate bracket is formed of a planar web in which two rectangular portions along two edges of the web are bent to define a first pair of perpendicular flanges, and two other rectangular portions are bent from an inner portion of the web to form a second pair of perpendicular flanges. The flanges of the first pair are spaced from the flanges of the second pair by a distance corresponding to the dimensions of the structural members used to construct the gate. The invention provides a rigid bracket of simpler and lighter construction than prior art brackets. | 12-24-2009 |

| 20080242811 | Amino phosphine - A new P—N—P ligand in which each phosphorus atom is bonded to two ortho-fluorine substituted phenyl groups is useful in ethylene oligomerizations. In combination with i) a source of chromium and ii) an activator such as methalumoxane; the ligand of this invention may be used to prepare an oligomer product that contains a mixture of hexenes and octenes. The hexenes and octenes produced with this ligand contain very low levels of internal olefins when produced under preferred reaction conditions. | 10-02-2008 |

| 20100297771 | METHOD OF EX VITRO SOWING, GERMINATION, GROWTH AND CONVERSION OF PLANT SOMATIC EMBRYOS OR GERMINANTS, AND NUTRIENT MEDIUM USED THEREFOR - A method of sowing a somatic plant embryo or germinant of a conifer species to facilitate subsequent development of the embryo or germinant into an autotrophic seedling. The method involves the following steps carried out ex vitro in non-sterile conditions: providing a nutrient medium comprising particles of a solid component present within a flowable or semi-solid component containing water and a carbohydrate nutrient for the embryo or germinant, dispensing a quantity of the nutrient medium onto a surface of a porous solid growth substrate for the somatic plant embryo or germinant, to and contacting the plant embryo or germinant with the nutrient medium. The nutrient medium has a fluidity such that at least some of the flowable or semi-solid component containing the carbohydrate nutrient remains in contact with the embryo or germinant at least until the embryo or germinant establishes vigorous growth under environmental conditions effective for such growth. The particles of the solid component are adapted to remain in contact with the embryo or germinant after of the flowable or semi-solid material dissipates, thereby providing continuing physical support for the embryo or germinant after the dissipation. The invention also relates to seedlings produced in this way and to the nutrient solution. | 11-25-2010 |

| 20100076693 | METHOD TO EXTRACT TARGET SIGNALS OF A KNOWN TYPE FROM RAW DATA CONTAINING AN UNKNOWN NUMBER OF TARGET SIGNALS, INTEREFERENCE, AND NOISE - A signal analysis method extracts transient target signals of known type from a raw data source signal that contains an unknown number of target signals. The method can enhance the analysis of data obtained from in-line oil-debris sensors. The method comprises steps of: defining signatures of the known target signal, and of at least one of the intrinsic noise and interfering signals; performing a mathematical transform that decomposes the raw data into distinct data sets; using the signal signatures to identify and nullify the data sets containing noise and interfering signal signatures; using the target signal signatures to identify the data sets containing target signal components, or may further use a thresholding rule to remove intrinsic noise from said data sets, and finally applying the inverse transform to the processed data sets in order to reconstruct an enhanced output signal. | 03-25-2010 |
