| 20100196130 | TRANSPORTABLE BIN OR LIKE OBJECT - A transportable apparatus has a main body in a working position with a bottom end resting on the ground. The bottom end of a frame is pivotally attached to the main body above the bottom end of the main body and the frame is aligned with a side of the main body. An actuator pivots the frame downward about the pivot axis to a transport position where the frame extends substantially horizontally away from the main body. Wheels support the frame and a hitch at a top end of the frame is adapted for connection to a tow vehicle when the frame is in the transport position. When the frame is connected to a tow vehicle, the actuator can be operated to pivot the main body downward about the pivot axis to a lowered transport position where the main body rests on the frame for transport on the wheels. | 08-05-2010 |

| 20080302309 | POULTRY CART AND METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR KILLING POULTRY - A poultry cart has one or more side doors that may be opened to expose substantially the entire side of the cart. The cart has no more than one interior vertical post on this side or has clear openings on this side across the width of each door. A process for killing poultry comprises steps of putting birds into a cart, moving the cart to a killing area, killing the birds, and dumping the birds out of the cart. The cart may be dumped by leaning it on its side such that doors on a side open and allow the birds to fall out. | 12-11-2008 |

| 20110078966 | LOG LOOK LOG - A simulated log structure is provided. The simulated log structure is made up of a plurality of structural elements wherein each structural element is composed of a plurality of exterior simulated log elements and a plurality of interior log elements. The exterior simulated log elements simulate the appearance of wooden logs and are made from concrete to withstand the natural elements. The interior log elements are made of real wood to provide owners the authentic feel of living in a real log structure. | 04-07-2011 |

| 20090046350 | Photonic crystal mirrors for high-resolving-power fabry perots - A Fabry-Perot cavity comprised of three-dimensional photonic crystal structures is disclosed. The self-assembly of purified and highly monodispersed microspheres is one approach to the successful operation of the device for creating highly ordered colloidal crystal coatings of high structural and optical quality. Such colloidal crystal film mirrors offer high reflection with low losses in the spectral window of the photonic band gap that permit Fabry-Perot resonators to be constructed with high resolving power, for example, greater than 1000 or sharp fringes that are spectrally narrower than 1.0 nm. The three-dimensional photonic crystals that constitute the Fabry-Perot invention are not restricted to any one fabrication method, and may include self-assembly of colloids, layer-by-layer lithographic construction, inversion, and laser holography. Such photonic crystal Fabry-Perot resonators offer the same benefits of high reflection and narrow spectral band responses available from the use of multi-layer dielectric coatings. However, the open structure of three-dimensional photonic crystal films affords the unique ability for external media to access the critical reflection layers and dramatically alter the Fabry-Perot spectrum, and provide means for crafting novel laser, sensor, and nonlinear optical devices. This open structure enables the penetration of gas and liquid substances, or entrainment of nano-particles or biological analytes in gases and liquids, to create subtle changes to the colloidal mirror responses that manifest in strong spectral responses in reflection and transmission of the collective Fabry Perot response. | 02-19-2009 |

| 20090304331 | OPTICAL DEVICES AND DIGITAL LASER METHOD FOR WRITING WAVEGUIDES, GRATINGS, AND INTEGRATED OPTICAL CIRCUITS - The invention relates to devices having periodic refractive index modulation structures and fabrication methods for the devices using a laser means. By focusing a pulsed laser beam into a transparent material substrate, a path of laser modified volumes can be formed with modified refractive index compared with the unprocessed material. By selecting appropriate laser parameters and relative scan speed, the laser modified path defines an optical waveguide. Separation distance of the individual modified volumes define a periodic modification pattern along the waveguide path, so that the waveguide structures also exhibit grating responses, for example, as spectral filters, Bragg reflectors, grating couplers, grating sensors, or other devices. This method of direct laser fabrication enables one-step fabrication and integration of periodic or aperiodic refractive-index modulation devices together with optical waveguiding properties to enable low-cost, multifunctional I D, 2D or 3D optical circuit fabrication for simple and complex applications. | 12-10-2009 |

| 20090104195 | TARGETED LIGANDS - The invention contemplates a composition containing a multispecific ligand containing at least a first ligand binding moiety and a second ligand binding moiety. The first ligand binding moiety specifically binds with a pre-selected first affinity to at least a first ligand. The first ligand has a first biodistribution. The second ligand binding moiety specifically binds with a pre-selected affinity to at least a second ligand. The second ligand has a second biodistribution. The affinity of first and second ligand binding moieties are selected to bias the biodistribution of the multispecific ligand in favor of a selected location of one or both of the ligands. | 04-23-2009 |
