| 20110146378 | Stack Gas Measurement Device and Method Therefor - A gas sampling device includes an analysis block defining a first portion of a chamber and a dilution block defining a second portion of the chamber. The sampling device includes an exhaust gas orifice at the first portion for withdrawing gas from the chamber in response to an applied suction, a sample gas orifice at the second portion to modify passage of a sample gas entering the chamber in response to the suction, and a dilution gas orifice at the second portion to modify passage of a dilution gas entering the chamber in response to the suction. | 06-23-2011 |

| 20080237278 | Dispensing valve with hydraulic hammer resistance - A fluid dispensing valve is provided with a peripheral mounting portion and a connecting sleeve connecting the peripheral mounting portion with a head which defines a dispensing orifice. The valve head includes a central inner surface portion that bulges axially inwardly to project from a radially outer surface portion. | 10-02-2008 |
| 20090188950 | Valve for decorative dispensing - A dispensing valve is provided for dispensing a fluid substance. The dispensing valve is pressure-responsive, and may be of a self-closing type, or define a central discharge aperture through which a substance being dispensed flows. A substance contact surface of the dispensing valve defines one or more projections and/or recesses which can cooperate with the substance being dispensed to impart a contoured or shaped cross-sectional configuration to the substance. A decorative effect can thus desirably be achieved, enhancing the aesthetic appeal of the dispensed substance, such as a whipped dessert topping, toothpaste, foamed construction material, etc. | 07-30-2009 |
| 20090212078 | Valve mounting assembly with slit misalignment prevention feature - A mounting system is provided for mounting a valve for accommodating the flow of fluent a substance from a supply of the fluent substance wherein the valve includes a peripheral attachment portion, an intermediate portion extending from the peripheral attachment portion, and a flexible, resilient head that extends from the intermediate portion and that has (a) a first side, (b) a second side, (c) at least one self-sealing slit through the head, (d) a laterally marginal portion adjacent the intermediate portion, and (e) confronting, openable portions along the slit to define an initially closed orifice. The mounting system includes a retention structure for engaging holding the valve and includes an abutment structure. The abutment structure is adapted to be disposed adjacent the valve intermediate portion so that the abutment structure can be engaged by the valve head first side at the laterally marginal portion of the valve head to limit movement of the laterally margin portion of the valve head in one direction. | 08-27-2009 |

| 20110072985 | CUTTING DEVICE FOR LETTUCE AND OTHER FOOD - A food cutting device has a raised platform with both food preparation surfaces and an opening through the platform through which cuttings may be forced or dropped. Across the opening are stationary blades that preferably do not move during operation. Pivotally connected to the platform is at least one moving blade that is swung toward the opening to both cut the food and force the food to and past the stationary blades. The moving blade may be part of a pivotal jaw that is manually swung down on top of food placed on, or overhanging, the stationary blades and opening. The jaw provides leverage to the user swinging the jaw, and the combination of generally parallel stationary blades in the platform and the moving blade, perpendicular to the stationary blades, allows quick swings of the jaw in succession to cut or shred the food as desired. A container may be provided underneath the platform to catch the cuttings. By cutting the food into the opening, by means of the stationary and moving blades, or sliding cut food from the food preparation surfaces to the opening, the user need not grasp cut food to transfer it to a strainer or bowl. The food preparation surfaces may be integral top surfaces of the platform and/or may include a removable cutting board(s). | 03-31-2011 |

| 20090095896 | METHODS FOR DETECTION, IDENTIFICATION AND QUANTIFICATION OF IMPURITIES - Provided is a method comprising introducing a sample comprising a plurality of oligonucleotides into an ion pair high performance liquid chromatography column having a buffered mobile phase and allowing at least a portion of the oligonucleotides to separate; allowing the oligonucleotides to elute from the column; and introducing the oligonucleotides into a mass spectrometer and quantifying at least a portion of the oligonucleotides by mass spectrometry. In the method, at least a portion of the oligonucleotides are co-eluting oligonucleotides that differ in mass by no more than 20%; and the buffered mobile phase causes at least 50 mole percent of co-eluting oligonucleotides to have the same charge when they enter the mass spectrometer. | 04-16-2009 |

| 20080254436 | Selection Of A Consensus From A Plurality Of Ideas - A method of forming a consensus from a collection of ideas is disclosed. The ideas may be generated by a collection of participants, or may be provided to the collection of participants. The ideas are divided into non-exclusive groups for evaluation, with each group being provided to a participant for voting. Each participant chooses a favorite idea from the group, or selects a first and second choice, or a first, second and third choice. The votes are tallied, and for each idea a “win percentage” is calculated, which is defined as the ratio of the number of groups in which a particular idea wins the voting, divided by the number of groups in which a particular idea appears. Each idea that has a “win percentage” that exceeds a particular threshold is passed on to one or more subsequent rounds of voting. If desired, the voting may continue until a single idea is chosen as the consensus. In some rounds of voting, the groups are configured so that a participant does not vote on his/her own idea. In the first round of voting, the groups are configured so that no two ideas compete against each other more than once. A formulaic template is provided for generation of the groups, based on the number of ideas, the number of participants, and the number of ideas per group. In some embodiments, the template and number of ideas per group may be formulated using the sequence of integers known as the Mian-Chowla sequence. | 10-16-2008 |
| 20090239205 | System And Method For Algorithmic Selection Of A Consensus From A Plurality Of Ideas - A system and method for algorithmic selection of a consensus from a collection of ideas is disclosed. A group of ideas is provided to a group of participants for voting. Voting may occur in a single round or in several successive rounds, optionally until a consensus idea is chosen. Typically, the votes that are cast use discrete levels, such as “approve”, “disapprove”, “positive”, “neutral” or “negative”. For ideas that receive the same votes, a differentiator may be the time spent casting the vote. A relatively long evaluation time may signal some internal conflict in the mind of the participant, when compared with a relatively short evaluation time, which may signal no such conflict. The evaluation time may be combined with the rating of the participant to form a weighted rating. Consequently, a short evaluation time of a positive rating may yield a more positive weighted rating, while a short evaluation time of a negative rating may yield a more negative weighted rating. | 09-24-2009 |

| 20100043320 | WINDOW MOLDING ASSEMBLY AND METHOD OF INSTALLING - A window molding assembly comprises a box frame having a right side, left side, top side and window sill. The box frame is configured to fit with an opening of an existing window opening with a portion of the window sill extending from the window opening. A plurality of decorative molding pieces are attached to the front of box frame and extending laterally therefrom a decorative front fascia to cover a front edge of the window opening. | 02-25-2010 |

| 20080306848 | Lead Generation Platform - A method and system is disclosed for a financial institution to offer one or more financial products or services to a customer. Upon receiving a triggering event, such as a customer transaction, at least one of an internal and external database concerning is queried, and an algorithmic determination of an optimum selection of financial products to be offered to the customer is executed. The initiated financial transaction may be executed simultaneously with the determination of an optimum selection of financial products. The optimum selection of financial products and services may be offered by the financial institution employee who is also processing the customer transaction. | 12-11-2008 |
