| 20120072991 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR RATING PRIVACY RISK OF APPLICATIONS FOR SMART PHONES AND OTHER MOBILE PLATFORMS - Methods and systems for evaluating and rating privacy risks posed by applications intended for deployment on mobile platforms. Validating the “intent” of a mobile platform application vis-à-vis its impact on user privacy, as viewed from an end-user's perspective allows those end-users to make better-informed decisions concerning the downloading, installation and/or operation of mobile platform applications. In making such assessments user preferences can be taken into account. Privacy scores are provided through sales channels for the applications, thereby affording potential users the opportunity to assess whether they wish to incur the associated privacy risk, before purchasing a subject application. | 03-22-2012 |

| 20100244813 | BRIDGE SENSOR WITH COLLOCATED ELECTRONICS AND TWO-WIRE INTERFACE - A transducer, including: a housing; a bridge sensor circuit disposed within the housing and including at least one micro electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) sensing elements and first and second output ports; circuitry disposed within the housing; and an input/output (I/O) line electrically connected to the circuitry, accessible at an exterior of the housing, and adapted for receipt of input voltage or current. The circuitry is for generating a single data signal that combines respective outputs of the first and second output ports, and transmitting the DC-coupled single data signal on the I/O line. The circuitry is for generating and transmitting to the bridge sensor circuit an excitation current or voltage using the input voltage or current. | 09-30-2010 |

| 20090231952 | GAS FOIL IMPELLER - An impeller assembly includes a shaft, multiple scoops spaced circumferentially about the shaft, each scoop including an upper blade portion and a lower blade portion, spaced apart at the leading edges and joined at the inner edges, and a rib extending rearward from the inner edges, each scoop being coupled to the shaft by attachment at the rib. A system and method for mixing gas or liquid into liquid include a vessel for containing liquid, a drive shaft for extending into the vessel, and an impeller assembly adapted for rotating about the drive shaft, adapted for submerging below the liquid surface, and having multiple scoops, each scoop including an upper blade portion and a lower blade portion, spaced apart at the leading edges and joined at the inner edges, and a rib extending rearward from the inner edges, each scoop being coupled to the shaft by attachment at the rib. | 09-17-2009 |
| 20090314698 | Combined Axial-Radial Intake Impeller With Circular Rake - An impeller, a system for mixing a fluid, and a method of mixing a fluid in a tank are disclosed. For a sufficiently small impeller diameter and maximum blade tip velocity, the disclosed impeller, system, and method are capable of accelerating a near-zero intake velocity fluid, to generate a mixing zone that is collimated enough to have sufficient velocity vectors to suspend particles at a large distance away from the impeller, while minimizing the required power draw. An impeller may include a hub defining a longitudinal axis and plural blades spaced circumferentially about the hub. Each blade may include a root portion and a tip portion. Each blade may define a leading edge having an approximately circular raked helical geometry. A system for mixing a fluid may include a tank for containing the fluid, a drive shaft for extending into the tank, and the impeller. | 12-24-2009 |

| 20110110831 | MULTI-STAGE CRYSTALLIZATION APPARATUS AND METHOD - A crystallizer system for forming solid crystals includes a vessel defining a cylindrical sidewall, a sparge device located at a bottom of the vessel, a plurality of impellers attached to a shaft, and a plurality of redistribution funnel assemblies vertically spaced apart. Each funnel assembly may be positioned underneath a respective impeller of the plurality of impellers. Each funnel assembly may include a funnel, a disc attached to the shaft such that the disc rotates with the impellers, and a channel extending radially inward from a location near the sidewall. The channel may be adapted to direct gas bubbles from the sidewall to a location near blade outer edges of the respective impeller A lower edge of the funnel and the disc may define a lower gap therebetween, such that solid particles falling from within the funnel are directed out of the lower gap when the disc is rotated. | 05-12-2011 |

| 20110020298 | COLLAGEN-BINDING SYNTHETIC PEPTIDOGLYCANS, PREPARATION, AND METHODS OF USE - This invention relates to collagen-binding synthetic peptidoglycans and engineered collagen matrices comprising a collagen matrix and a collagen-binding synthetic peptidoglycan where the collagen-binding synthetic peptidoglycan can be aberrant or can have amino acid homology with a portion of the amino acid sequence of a protein or a proteoglycan that regulates collagen fibrillogenesis. The invention also relates to kits, compounds, compositions, and engineered graft constructs comprising such collagen-binding synthetic peptidoglycans or engineered collagen matrices and methods for their preparation and use. | 01-27-2011 |
