| 20090038601 | Method for making a barrel front for a paintball marker - Disclosed is a method for making a non-metallic, fiber-reinforced barrel tube having particular application for use in a barrel system to be attached to a paintball marker in order to direct paintballs propelled by the marker towards a target. A mandrel is first dipped in a releasing agent. The mandrel is then coated with a thin layer of metal (e.g., nickel or chrome) by means of a nano vapor deposition process. Next, a fiber-reinforced resinous sheet is wrapped over the thin metal layer to establish a tube therearound. A heat-sensitive plastic tape is wound around the tubular resinous sheet. The mandrel is heated in an oven to cause the thin metal layer to bond to the tubular resinous sheet. At the same time, the heat-sensitive tape shrinks to squeeze any air bubbles from the resinous sheet. After heating and curing, the mandrel is pulled outwardly from the tubular fiber-reinforced resinous sheet to produce a hollow, cylindrical barrel tube ready for cutting to size and machining so as to be coupled to the paintball marker. | 02-12-2009 |
| 20090071460 | Grip for a paintball marker having a replaceable insert - A paintball marker of the kind used for propelling a paintball towards a target during the game of paintball. The paintball marker includes a handle to be grasped by the hand of a user during play. A comfortable grip is detachably connected to the handle and a replaceable insert is removably received within an insert opening through the grip. The replaceable insert has a particular color, indicia, and/or three-dimensional design to provide an ornamentally and visually distinctive grip to identify the user or represent his team. The insert can be quickly and easily separated from the grip to be replaced by a different insert having a different color, indicia, or design according to the needs of the user. Accordingly, the ornamentality of the grip of the paintball marker may be quickly and easily changed without having to replace the entire grip. | 03-19-2009 |
| 20110167529 | Padded arm and leg protectors - Padded arm and leg protectors having particular application to be worn around the arm and leg of one playing the game of paintball to prevent injury as a consequence of a paintball propelled from a paintball marker striking the player's arm or leg. In one embodiment, the arm protector includes a sleeve surrounding the arm and extending at least between the elbow and the wrist of the player. The sleeve has an outside top layer, an inside bottom layer, and a plurality of protective pads retained between the layers. The protective pads are strategically positioned along the sleeve to cover the wearer's elbow, his wrist and at least some of the muscles of the arm between the elbow and the wrist. The protective pads are separated and spaced from one another by respective channels which extend completely around each pad. By virtue of the foregoing, the protective pads are movable independently of one another so as to provide the arm with unrestricted movements during play, whereby to permit the player's elbow to bend, the wrist to rotate and the arm muscles between the elbow and wrist to flex at the same time. | 07-14-2011 |

| 20110280917 | RESORBABLE THIN MEMBRANES - Resorbable lactide polymer thin membranes are disclosed. The thin membranes are constructed of polylactide resorbable polymers, which are engineered to be absorbed into the body relatively slowly over time in order to reduce potential negative side effects. The membranes are formed to have very thin thicknesses, for example, thicknesses between about 0.010 mm and about 0.30 mm. The membranes can be extruded from polylactide polymers having a relatively high viscosity property, can be preshaped with relatively thick portions, and can be stored in sterile packages. | 11-17-2011 |

| 20090064329 | Zero-hour quarantine of suspect electronic messages - The zero-hour quarantine comprises a tool for flagging potentially harmful messages/files prior to having an anti-virus signature published for a particular virus. The suspect file is sent to the zero-hour quarantine and periodically scanned, giving time for creation of a signature file that would then detect the virus. An example method may include receiving and examining a message for attributes indicative of its undesirability, and assigning a threat score to the message. The method may comprise disposing of the message by comparing the threat score to first and second thresholds, and the message sent to a permanent quarantine if the threat score passes the first threshold. The message is sent to the zero-hour quarantine if the assigned threat score does not pass the second threshold but passes the second threshold, or is delivered to the recipient if the assigned threat score does not pass the first or second threshold. | 03-05-2009 |
| 20100175134 | System and Method for Performing Remote Security Assessment of Firewalled Computer - Methods and systems for scanning an endpoint terminal across an open computer network are disclosed. An exemplary method includes providing a scanner engine in a computer server in communication with an open computer network, and establishing a secure connection across the open computer network between the scanner engine and a scanner agent installed on the endpoint terminal in communication with the open computer network. Commands for collecting data regarding the endpoint terminal are sent from the scanner engine across the secure connection to the scanner agent. The scanner engine then receives the collected data from the scanner agent across the secure connection, analyzes the data to assess a current posture of the endpoint terminal, and determines any updates for the endpoint terminal from the analysis. Updates are sent across the secure connection to the scanner agent for installation on the endpoint terminal, and the secure connection may then be terminated. | 07-08-2010 |
| 20100175135 | Systems and Methods for Assessing the Compliance of a Computer Across a Network - The disclosed principles describe systems and methods for assessing the security posture of a target device, wherein the assessment is performed by a scanning computer in communication with the target device via a communication network. By employing a system or method in accordance with the disclosed principles, distinct advantages are achieved. Specifically, conducting such a remote scan allows for the scanner computer to perform a remote scan of the remote device without installing client software to the remote device. Thus, the disclosed principles reduce the need for internal IT resources to manage the deployment and updates of client software on the target device. Also, conducting a remote scan according to the disclosed principles allows for the remote scan to be performed even if the scanner computer and remote device run different operating systems. | 07-08-2010 |
