Abstract: A neuromodulation therapy is delivered via at least one electrode implanted subcutaneously and superficially to a fascia layer superficial to a nerve of a patient. In one example, an implantable medical device is deployed along a superficial surface of a deep fascia tissue layer superficial to a nerve of a patient. Electrical stimulation energy is delivered to the nerve through the deep fascia tissue layer via implantable medical device electrodes.

Abstract: In one embodiment, the instant invention includes a computer-implemented method having steps of: providing a plurality of pre-programmed components; receiving an alert strategy, representing a strategy diagram made on a computer screen from the plurality of provided pre-programmed components; validating the alert strategy, where the validation includes generating, real-time, a smart chart for the alert strategy; receiving a selection of at least one trading instrument for which the alert strategy to be executed; executing the alert strategy for the trading instrument based, at least in part, on one of: i) historical market data and/or ii) real-time market data, where the execution of the at least one alert strategy automatically reflected in the generated smart chart; and generating a buy/sell alert when the execution of the alert strategy meets a condition pre-determined by the alert strategy.

Abstract: An insulated investment casting shell mold is made by first mixing at least one refractory material with a slurry vehicle forming a prime coat slurry, and optionally mixing at least one refractory material with a slurry vehicle forming a backup slurry. The prime slurry is coated onto a fugitive pattern and optionally dried and/or stuccoed wherein the stucco has at least one refractory material. Optionally, at least one coat of the backup slurry is applied to the prime coated fugitive pattern and optionally dried and/or stuccoed after each coat of the backup slurry. The backup and stucco may be applied a plurality of times to obtain a desired shell wall thickness. An insulating slurry is formed by introducing gas into a slurry vehicle having at least one refractory material and containing a stabilizer and a foaming agent wherein gaseous bubbles become entrained therein forming an insulating slurry having closed porosity therein.
