摘要： A method, a system, and a computer program for recapturing electronic devices no longer of use to their owners. The method, which is implemented by the computer program, broadly comprises the steps of identifying at least one electronic device no longer of use to the device's owner by managing one or more identification parameters; matching the device with a recapture offer so as to incentivize the owner to donate or sell the device; notifying the device owner of the recapture offer; and acquiring the device from the owner to complete recapture of the device.

摘要： An electrosurgical instrument with a disposable electrosurgical cartridge is provided. The cartridge has first and second energy-delivery surfaces that carry first and second opposing polarity conductors coupled to a voltage source, together with first and second temperature-responsive variable impedance bodies exposed partly in the respective-delivery surfaces. The cartridge further carries a slidable blade member. The temperature-responsive variable impedance bodies are coupled to the voltage source by series and parallel circuitry. In use, the variable impedance bodies are adapted to modulate current flow and ohmic heating in engaged tissue by providing controlled current paths in the tissue and through the variable impedance bodies as the temperature-responsive bodies sense the temperature of adjacent engaged tissue. The engagement surfaces are capable of highly localized modulation of Rf energy application to engage engaged tissue to provide high and low temperatures, voltage and current in the tissue to create high strength welds.

摘要： A mountable hitch for converting a normally fixed mounted material hauling device for use with a fifth wheel capable vehicle. The mountable hitch includes a mountable frame assembly selectively engaging the vehicle. A load carrying device is coupled to the frame assembly. The load carrying device is for containing material when the mountable frame assembly engages the vehicle and the load carrying device is transported by the vehicle. A securing assembly selectively engages the load carrying device. The securing assembly is coupled to the vehicle whereby the securing assembly inhibits the load carrying device and the mountable frame assembly from sliding off of the vehicle when the load carrying device engages the securing assembly.

摘要： The present invention is directed to utilizing monitoring devices (200) for determining the effectiveness of various locations, such as media display locations (150) for an intended purpose (media display exposure). The monitoring devices (200) are distributed to a number of study respondents. The monitoring devices (200) track the movements of the respondents. While various technologies may be used to track the movements of the respondents, at least some of the location tracking of the monitoring device (200) utilize a satellite (105) location system such as the global positioning system (“GPS”). These movements of the respondent and monitoring device (200) at some point coincide with exposure to a number of media displays (150). Geo data (movement data) collected by the monitoring devices, is downloaded to a download server (300), for determining which media displays (150) the respondent was exposed to. The exposure determinations are made by a post-processing server (400).

摘要： Methods and apparatus are provided for an achieving low-rate collagen shrinkage using an electrode array comprising an elongated insulator strip having at least one pair of spaced-apart bi-polar RF electrodes, and a “channeling” disposed on the strip between the bi-polar electrodes to direct the flow of RF current therebetween. The channeling electrode is not directly coupled to the RF power source, but only indirectly through the tissue in contact with the channeling electrode. The apparatus enables low RF power levels (e.g., 0.5 watts to 25 watts) to be applied over time intervals of 5 seconds to 180 seconds to attain low-rate collagen shrinkage by directing or focusing the path of the RF current.

摘要： The invention includes methods, systems and devices for authenticating transactions. A method may begin by enrolling at least two biometric specimens to a database. A false acceptance ratio (“FAR”) is determined for each of the specimens, and authorization options are identified. A cost value is calculated for at least one of the options to provide a calculated cost value (“CCV”). The CCV may be a function of the FAR(s) of the specimen(s) corresponding to the option. An acceptable cost value range (“ACV range”) may be identified, and compared to the CCV. If it is determined that the CCV is in the ACV range, then the option is selected. If the CCV is in the ACV range, then a set of biometric samples is provided (the “sample set”). The sample set is compared to the biometric specimens, and it is determined whether the biometric samples match the biometric specimens. If the biometric samples match the biometric specimens, then the transaction is authorized.
