| 20110024169 | SILICON NANOWIRE ARRAYS ON AN ORGANIC CONDUCTOR - In an aspect of the invention, a process to make a nanowire array is provided. In the process, silicon is deposited onto a conductive substrate comprising an organic material and optionally a conductive layer, thus forming a silicon-containing layer. Nanoparticles are deposited on top of the silicon-containing layer. Metal is deposited on top of the nanoparticles and silicon in such a way that the metal is present and touches silicon where etching is desired and is blocked from touching silicon or not present elsewhere. The metallized substrate is contacted with an etchant aqueous solution comprising about 2 to about 49 weight percent HF and an oxidizing agent. | 02-03-2011 |

| 20090327940 | NOTIFICATION AREA THAT PERSISTENTLY REARRANGES ELEMENTS - Embodiments described herein are directed to managing elements within a notification area of a graphical operating system. The elements may include any graphic, logo, or image associated with running software. A user indicates which elements can be displayed in the notification area, consequently creating a list of potentially displayable elements. For each listed element, an order of display, file location, and display status is designated. The user may freely change the order in which elements are displayed in the notification area by repositioning the displayed elements. Elements may be permanently removed from the notification area, resulting in their deletion from the list. Only elements entered into the order list, at the discretion of the user, are displayable within the notification area. | 12-31-2009 |

| 20110251004 | Internal ring sealed chain - Links in industrial chains are connected by pins in bushings. Internal sealing rings in internal annular grooves near ends of bushings prevent inward movement of debris and outward movement of grease past the grooves. Steel internal sealing rings are expanded further into the grooves upon insertion of the pins through the bushings and the steel rings. The steel rings tightly grip the pins and rotate with the pins. Opposite ends of the bushings extend slightly from inside sidebars. Outer conical nitrile seals have collars placed on extended ends of the bushings and have large radiused ends for contacting inner surfaces of outside sidebars that hold the pins. | 10-13-2011 |
