20090282751SELF MEASURING VINYL SIDING - An elongated piece of pre-finished vinyl siding adapted to be cut to a measured length at a worksite and to be affixed to a structure includes an upper portion that includes a nailing flange and a locking lip portion. Linear dimension markings non-repetitively and incrementally are provided exclusively on the upper portion, wherein the linear dimension markings increase sequentially from a first end edge to a second end edge of the vinyl siding along an entire length of the vinyl siding, thereby visually indicating where to cut the vinyl siding to obtain the measured length. The linear dimension markings are completely hidden from view when the vinyl siding is affixed adjacently with other vinyl siding pieces to the structure.11-19-2009

20110066465ARCHITECTURAL DYNAMIC CONTROL: INTELLIGENT ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROL AND FEEDBACK SYSTEM FOR ARCHITECTURAL SETTINGS INCLUDING OFFICES - A smart, adaptive control system that monitors and influences physical conditions of an architectural setting. The architectural setting in which the system is deployed typically includes a plurality of private spaces and at least one community space. The individual private spaces, and the community spaces, may include an environmental control device that affects one or more physical conditions of the individual private space. Each private space may also include an environmental sensor that measures a particular physical condition of the private space. The private spaces may also include one or more occupant sensors, which measure either behavioral or physiological parameters of an occupant. The environmental control devices, environmental sensors, and occupant sensors are in communication with a computer. The computer is also in communication with a database, which houses a data set that describes how to best modify the physical conditions of the architectural setting.03-17-2011
