| 20090125556 | Website for presenting videos related to homes for sale and other places of interest within a specified region - A website is disclosed exclusively for distributing videos relating to homes for sale or rent, restaurants, schools, hotels, museums, tourist attractions, and other places of interest within a specified region. The website includes a database of videos and related information, a home webpage where location information such as a zip code or address and other specific characteristics are entered, and a second webpage where a list of places of interest that satisfy the specified criteria is presented, and where in some embodiments the search can be narrowed. In one aspect, the home webpage allows only input of location information. Preferred embodiments allow definition of a region according to a maximum distance or travel time from a location. Some embodiments display locating information and/or videos and other information regarding real estate agents or other subscribers. Preferred embodiments also provide for linking or embedding of videos in email, blogs, other websites, etc. | 05-14-2009 |

| 20090093821 | Slide Guide Apparatus & Method - Methods of maintaining a consistent pathway through an already formed incision and for facilitating placement and removal of medical devices into and/or out of a surgical treatment site or cavity are disclosed. A method for removing and placing medical devices includes inserting a first medical device into an already formed incision, inserting a slide guide into the cavity through the already formed incision in surrounding relation to the first medical device to facilitate removal of the first medical device, and inserting a second medical device into the cavity using the slide guide as the pathway to guide and partially surround a circumference of the second medical device to guide the second medical into the cavity. A slide guide includes an elongated insertion member having a substantially U-shaped cross-section sized to receive and partially surround a circumference of a tubular insertion member of a medical device. | 04-09-2009 |
| 20090143633 | Transparent Catheters for Endoscopic Localization - Devices and methods are disclosed for the direct visualization and localization of a target area within a body lumen through the optically clear walls of a graduated catheter. An elongated catheter has proximal and distal ends, an anchor, graduated markings, and outer and inner surfaces defining a catheter wall. The anchor establishes a secure relationship between the catheter and an anatomical feature. The graduated markings are disposed along a length of the catheter. The outer surface of the catheter wall is configured for contacting a body lumen and the inner surface of the catheter wall defines a main lumen disposed along a length of the elongated catheter. The catheter wall is transparent along a length to provide visualization of the graduated markings via a visualization tool positioned in the main lumen. In one embodiment, a catheter may have a substantially circular cross-section and include an arc-shaped transparent window. | 06-04-2009 |

| 20100069839 | Catheter with Removable Balloon Protector and Stent Delivery System With Removable Stent Protector - A balloon catheter is provided having an expandable distal portion and balloon protector means comprising a first removable sleeve having a variable inner diameter to ease sliding the first sleeve over the balloon, and an optional second removable (outer) sleeve positioned over the inner sleeve, the second (outer) sleeve having a constrictive relationship with the first (inner) sleeve, said first and second sleeves being removed prior to use of the catheter. A stent delivery system is provided to facilitate introduction and placement of a stent, and includes a catheter having an expandable distal portion constructed and arranged for expanding the outer diameter of the catheter from a contracted state to an expanded state, said distal portion further comprising a balloon and at least one dam over which the balloon extends, and a stent positioned around the distal portion of the catheter around the balloon or gripper linear control device, said stent having a contracted condition, being sized in the contracted condition to closely surround the balloon in the contracted state, and being expandable to an expanded condition; a first removable (inner) sleeve in the region of the distal portion of the catheter positioned around the stent (and between the dams where the device comprises two dams), said first sleeve comprising a first end, a second end and a variable inner diameter to ease sliding the sleeve over the balloon and stent; an optional second removable (outer) sleeve positioned over the stent, first sleeve and at least one dam, said second (outer) sleeve having a constrictive relationship with the first (inner) sleeve, whereby when compressed by the outer sleeve, the inner sleeve will have an inner diameter approximately equal to or less than the outer profile of the collapsed balloon over the at least one dam, said first and second sleeves being removed prior to use of the stent delivery system and release of the stent by expansion of the balloon. | 03-18-2010 |

| 20090118031 | Shaft Structure with Configurable Bending Profile - A shaft structure with a configurable bending profile is provided for golf clubs, fishing rods, and the like. The shaft structure employs a plurality of tensioned sections. The golfer, in practice, configures the bending profile of a golf shaft by adjusting the internal pressure of the sections in order to change the stiffness of that section. The combination of sections and their associated stiffness results in an advantageous bending profile. The golfer can, at any time and very easily, change the bending profile of the golf shaft. | 05-07-2009 |
| 20090143161 | Shaft Structure with Configurable Bending, Weight, Moment-of-Inertia and Torque Profile - A shaft structure with a configurable bending, weight, torque and moment-of-inertia profile is provided for golf clubs, fishing rods, and the like. The shaft structure employs an innovative inner and outer shaft structure. The golfer, in practice, configures the profile of a golf shaft by choosing from a plurality of different inner shaft structures each having a unique bending, weight, moment-of-inertia and torque profile. The inner shaft is securely fastened within the outer shaft. The combination of the inner shaft with the outer shaft results in an advantageous bending, weight, torque and moment-of-inertia profile. The golfer can, at any time and very easily, change the profile of the golf shaft according to their physical, course and weather conditions for any given day. | 06-04-2009 |

| 20100179668 | Hybrid Terrain-Adaptive Lower-Extremity Systems - Hybrid terrain-adaptive lower-extremity apparatus and methods that perform in a variety of different situations by detecting the terrain that is being traversed, and adapting to the detected terrain. In some embodiments, the ability to control the apparatus for each of these situations builds upon five basic capabilities: (1) determining the activity being performed; (2) dynamically controlling the characteristics of the apparatus based on the activity that is being performed; (3) dynamically driving the apparatus based on the activity that is being performed; (4) determining terrain texture irregularities (e.g., how sticky is the terrain, how slippery is the terrain, is the terrain coarse or smooth, does the terrain have any obstructions, such as rocks) and (5) a mechanical design of the apparatus that can respond to the dynamic control and dynamic drive. | 07-15-2010 |
