20100062910 | Hand-Held Walking Stilts - A hand-held walking stilt comprising a base that contacts a walking surface, where the base has a foot stand to support a user's foot a set distance above the walking surface, where the foot stand defines an opening for a pole. The base also has at least one base flange extending into the opening. There is also a pole adapted to extend through the opening in the foot stand, and to extend above the base away from the walking surface, with the pole having at least one pole flange that interconnects with the base flange to hold the base and the pole together. | 03-11-2010 |

20140280464 | INTERMEDIARY API FOR PROVIDING PRESENCE DATA TO REQUESTING CLIENTS - Technologies are generally described for providing an intermediary API for intercepting and processing subscribing requests to a communications server. An intermediary API may intercept a subscribing request from a local or PIC client to receive presence status data from a presentity such as a bot executed on the communications server. The intermediary API may be configured to provide the presence data to a PIC client without consuming the communications server registered subscription limit. The intermediary API may employ a server-supported protocol-specific processing language or module to intercept the subscribing requests, to determine if the request is targeted for one or more bots executed on the communications server, and to determine if the request is for presence data for one or more bots. The intermediary API may determine if the request is non-terminating, and if all criteria are met, may provide presence data to the requesting client. | 09-18-2014 |

20090175761 | Hand-washing method utilizing antimicrobial liquid hand soap compositions with tactile signal - A hand-washing method using an antimicrobial liquid hand soap which includes: (a) water; (b) a primary hand soap composition; (c) a biocide; and (d) a glutinous surfactant having a relative contact angle value with water of at least about +10° with respect to the primary hand soap composition. The glutinous surfactant is present in an amount effective to alter the tactile properties of the primary soap composition to promote longer and more thorough hand washing by eliciting a response to the soap's feel on the skin. | 07-09-2009 |

20140332178 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DELIVERING A TOOL TO THE INTERIOR OF A HEAT EXCHANGE TUBE - A delivery system for remotely driving an eddy current probe through the tubing of a heat exchanger. The system uses a flexible shaft and air pressure to move an inspection probe through the heat exchanger tubes. The flexible shaft initially drives the probe through a sealed conduit to deliver the probe to the tube end at which point a seal on the shaft near the probe head contacts the tube inner surface allowing a buildup of air pressure behind the seal, thus driving the probe through the tube. | 11-13-2014 |

20140056528 | VECTORIZATION APPROACH TO ISOLATING LOCAL MAXIMA IN AN N-DIMENSIONAL DATASET - Identification of maximum power scatters in an N-dimensional dataset generally requires two basic steps. The first step is to identify the max power scatters of the dataset and the second step removes neighboring power scatters (e.g., “hits”) of lower power. Current naïve approaches utilize an inefficient and computationally intensive brute force implementation which requires multiple comparisons of each initial “hit” power to all “hits” of lesser power. Such brute force implementations require 2×N×(M−1)! comparisons, where N is the number of dimensions and M is the number of “hits.” Embodiments of the present disclosure utilize vectorization to identify a plurality of neighboring hits for each max power scatter and removes the neighboring hits of lesser power that are within a predetermined isolation region. Advantageously, embodiments of the present invention perform M−1 comparisons. | 02-27-2014 |
