| 20090125505 | INFORMATION RETRIEVAL USING CATEGORY AS A CONSIDERATION - Category affinity may be used as a consideration in providing search results. A taxonomy of substantive categories is created and/or obtained. A corpus of document is compared with the taxonomy to determine the category(ies) with which the documents affine. A query is also compared with the taxonomy to determine the category(ies) with which the query affines. A document may receive a category score based on how well the document's category(ies) match the query's category(ies). This document score may be combined with other scores, such as a text score, a link score, and a distance score, and/or any other factors, to determine an overall relevance score. The relevance score may then be used to rank and present search results. | 05-14-2009 |

| 20110267180 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR GENERATING AN AUDIO NOTIFICATION FILE - A method and apparatus for generating an audio notification file for a computing device are provided. A first audio file associated with a first mental state is selected as a first section of the audio notification file. The audio notification file enabled for storage in a memory. The audio notification file is further enabled for processing by a processing unit to control a speaker. A final state of the audio notification file is determined, the final state designated as a final section of the audio notification file, the final state associated with a second mental state. At least one intermediate section of the audio notification file is generated, between the first section and the second section, by morphing the first audio file to the final state by processing the first audio file using a digital signal processor. | 11-03-2011 |

| 20110097751 | GLP-1 RECEPTOR AGONIST BIOASSAYS - Provided herein are cell-based bioassays for measuring GLP-I receptor agonist activity of test compounds, such as GLP-I receptor agonist compounds. Exemplary GLP-I receptor agonist compounds include exendins, exendin analogs, GLP-1(7-37), and GLP-1(7-37) analogs. The bioassays are useful for quantitatively determining cAMP generated in samples containing GLP-I receptor agonist compounds (e.g., exenatide) and 6-23 (clone 6) cells having GLP-I receptors, whereby the amount of cAMP generated can be correlated to the GLP-I receptor agonist activity of the GLP-I receptor agonist compounds (e.g., exenatide). Suitable cell-based bioassays include enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays and homogeneous time-resolved fluorescence assays. | 04-28-2011 |

| 20120079106 | System and Method for Interfacing with Heterogeneous Network Data Gathering Tools - A prevention-based network auditing system includes a plurality of heterogeneous information sources gathering information about the network. An audit server invokes the heterogeneous information sources via a uniform communications interface to gather information about the network, and converts the information gathered by the information sources into a normalized data format such as, for example, into XML (Extensible Markup Language). The converted information is then stored in an audit repository for security and regulatory policy assessment, network vulnerability analysis, report generation, and security improvement recommendations. | 03-29-2012 |

| 20110060086 | Elastomeric Copolymers, Copolymer Compositions, and Their Use in Articles - A copolymer is formed from an isoolefin having from 4 to 7 carbon atoms and an alkylstyrene. The copolymer has a substantially homogeneous compositional distribution. The copolymer has from about 8 to about 12 wt % of alkylstyrene and at least 85 wt % of isoolefin. The copolymer is preferably halogenated with about 1.1 to about 1.5 wt % of a halogen. The copolymer may in elastomeric nanocomposites. To obtain a good dispersion of the nanoclay in a formulated compound, at least one cure accelerator is selected from the group consisting of mercaptobenzothiazole disulfide, mercaptobenzothiazole, cyclohexyl benzothiazole disulfide, dibutyl thiourea, tetramethylthiuram disulfide, 4-4-dithiodimropholine, zinc dimethyldithiocarbamate, and zinc dibutylphosphorodithiate. | 03-10-2011 |

The elastomer comprises units derived from isoolefins having from 4 to 7 carbon atoms and at least one multiolefin. The nanofiller comprise a layered filler and an amine modifier wherein the nanofiller is substantially free of any unassociated amines. By eliminating unassociated amines in the nanofiller, prior to contact with the elastomer, the nanocomposite has improved processability characteristics while maintaining desired impermeability characteristics. | 11-03-2011 |

| 20100132092 | Water Absorbant Evaporative Cooling Hat - A hat with a brim extending outward from the base of a crown wherein a water adsorbent material is disposed on the inside lower portion of the crown, and extends outward onto the underside of the brim. A headband member on the outside lower portion of the base of the crown constricts the crown, causing it to apply the portion of the water adsorbent material disposed therein directly to the head of a user. The crown has venting holes incorporated along the head band. The water absorbent material comprises a closed cell foam material. The closed cell foam material is encased in a water adsorbent matting material to prevent direct contact between the closed cell foam material and the skin of a user. | 06-03-2010 |
