  • Patent number: 8627198
    Abstract: A new form of DHTML behaviors, called ˜Element Behaviors,” wherein a behavior component is bound to an HTML element, and not just attached to the element as with attached behaviors. A special processing instruction is used to import the Element Behavior into a Web page. Upon parsing the Web page, the Element Behavior is initialized as soon as it has been downloaded and parsed. This immediate initialization makes the Element Behavior declaratively available to bind synchronously to the element(s) it is modifying. A viewLink is a feature of Element Behaviors that permits encapsulation of a behavior component file (e.g., an HTC file) so that the structure of the HTC file is transparent to a Web page (˜primary document”) to which the HTC file is linked, but the content of the HTC file may be displayed in the primary document.

  • Publication number: 20100018966
    Abstract: Collapsible containers dimensioned to integrate into motor carrier operations are provided. The container may include a base, a pair of first and second opposing walls, each first and second opposing wall including a top edge, two side edges and a bottom edge. The container further includes a top panel removably attached to the top edge of the pairs of first and second opposing walls and a plurality of engaging devices positioned along the perimeter of the top panel and base and along the two side edges and top and bottom edges of the pairs of first and second opposing walls. The plurality of engaging devices are configured to removably connect the pair of first opposing walls to the pair of second opposing walls and to removably connect the pairs of first and second opposing walls to the top panel and base.

  • Patent number: 6513780
    Abstract: Picture or Plaque Hanging Aid comprising: a length of stretchable elastic band, a rigid hook fixedly attached to each end of said band, and a bead frictionally mounted to said elastic band so that said bead can be slid to any portion of said band and remain in place when released. A preferred embodiment includes wherein a plurality of beads are frictionally mounted to said elastic band for marking a plurality of anchor placing locations. The user hooks the elastic band to the back of the plaque or picture, slides the ball to the anchor fastening location, places a transferrable mark on the bead with an ink pen so that when the picture or plaque is placed in the desired location on a wall, the mark is transferred to the wall thereby indicating the spot where a picture or plaque hanging anchor is to be fastened to the wall.

  • Patent number: 4784661
    Abstract: A total wrist prosthesis which has a metacarpal component and a radial component having ellipsoidal articulating surfaces. The metacarpal component and the radial component each have a fixation stem for insertion into the third metacarpal and the radius respectively. The fixation stem of the metacarpal component is curved dorsally to volarly so as to approximate the natural curvature of the third metacarpal and capitate of the human hand. The fixation stem of the metacarpal component has a center line which attaches to the head of the metacarpal component which contains the articulating surface dorsally from the minor axis of the ellipsoidal articulating surface. The fixation stem and the head of the metacarpal component have a plurality of wings attached thereto and a spur to prevent rotation of the device once inserted into the metacarpal. Also, the surface area of the metacarpal component proximal to the ellipsoidal articulating surface is coated with porous coating to aid in cement fixation.
