| 20110276248 | CONTROL SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING ENGINE EXHAUST BACK PRESSURE - A control system for an engine includes a restriction determination module and a valve control module. The restriction determination module determines a desired exhaust back pressure of the engine based on an exhaust flow rate of the engine. The valve control module selectively adjusts a valve position of an exhaust valve that restricts an exhaust flow of the engine based on the desired exhaust back pressure. The exhaust valve may include a valve body, a throttle plate, and an annular protrusion coupled to an inner surface of the valve body and protruding towards the throttle plate. The annular protrusion may abut a side of the throttle plate and may restrict fluid flow through an annular space between the throttle plate and the inner surface when the throttle plate is positioned in a rotational position transverse to a direction of fluid flow. A related method is also provided. | 11-10-2011 |

| 20110231496 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DELIVERING CUSTOMIZED INFORMATION ACCORDING TO A USER'S PROFILE - A system for providing an individual user with customized information is described. The user provides the system with the user's preferences. The system compares each user's preferences to a database to provide the user with notification via an e-mail newsletter sent over a computer network. The newsletter is individually prepared for each user by dynamically populating the newsletter with the necessary information as the newsletter is being sent to the individual. Thus, there is no need to first prepare the newsletter, store it, send it, and delete it. This approach reduces the need for more equipment as the number of needed newsletters increases. | 09-22-2011 |
