| 20090048965 | Method and System for Identifying Teaser Surfers with Time Series Credit History - Initially the amount of data is checked to determine whether a sufficient history is present for the method. Credit card accounts are classified as new, relatively new, and old cards, i.e. opened within six months, within twelve months, and over twelve months ago. The balances for each of the three categories are calculated for each month. The average balance percentages of cards opened within six months and twelve months for the last twenty-four months is calculated and teaser surfers are defined as either having average percentages within the last twenty-four months for all credit cards opened within six and twelve months are greater than predefined percentages. | 02-19-2009 |

| 20090200039 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SECURING TO A DAMAGED WELLHEAD - A technique is provided for securing a subsea well that has had some of its components damaged as a result of a storm or other catastrophic event. The techniques utilizes a casing head assembly that may secured to the casing of the damaged well by tightening a plurality of set screws to drive slips into the casing. The casing head assembly may also comprise a tubing hanger. Tubing head set screws may then be tightened to activate the tubing hanger to secure the production tubing to the casing head. The casing head assembly may also comprise a latch-lock connector that may be secured to the casing head by stabbing the latch-lock connector into the casing head and rotating the connector approximately one-quarter turn. A corrosion cap may then be secured to the latch-lock connector to cover the end of the production tubing. | 08-13-2009 |

| 20090089871 | Methods and apparatus for digital data processor instantiation - The invention provides, in one aspect, a digital data processing device includes a firewall device and a computer, both housed within the same enclosure and sharing a common path to the Internet (or other external network), yet, not sharing the same substantive processing logic. Thus, by way of example, the firewall device does not the computer's central processing unit (CPU) to execute firewall logic. The digital data processing device can be arranged to limit connectivity and/or functionality of the computer and/or firewall device, e.g., absent authentication. Thus, for example, the computer and firewall can be coupled to the common path—e.g., a modem, network interface card or other communications port supporting access via wired (e.g., wired ethernet and coaxial), wireless (e.g., satellite, telephony, 802.11x), and/or optical (e.g., fiber) means—such that that access by the computer to the Internet (or other external network) is mediated by the firewall device. | 04-02-2009 |

| 20090119630 | Arrangements for Developing Integrated Circuit Designs - In some embodiments, a method is disclosed for converging on an acceptable integrated circuit design for an integrated circuit. The method can include selecting a path, determining if the path has a timing deficiency, segmenting the path into path segments and allocating the timing deficiency across the segments according to attributes of the path segments. Segments can have attributes such as a design freeze when the design is mature or “optimum.” Allocating can include allocating the timing deficiency across path segments according to attributes such as the proportion of the length of a segmented path to the overall path length. Allocating can include allocating the timing deficiency to path segments based on attributes provided as user input. | 05-07-2009 |
