Patent number: 10210144Abstract: Methods and systems for creating a webpage having different element orders for different webpage widths are disclosed. A computing device receives inputs specifying different layouts of elements in different orders for different webpage widths. The computing device creates markup code for the webpage that specifies separate subtrees of nodes for the different layouts and then modifies the markup code to replace duplicate nodes with placeholders in the subtrees. The computing device also creates script code for the webpage with instructions for modifying a live DOM created from the markup code based on current webpage width. Specifically, the script code modifies the live DOM to specify positioning the elements differently for different webpage widths by changing the visibility of nodes and swapping placehoders and content nodes in the subtrees.Type: GrantFiled: August 16, 2016Date of Patent: February 19, 2019Assignee: Adobe Inc.Inventors: Samuel Wan, Razvan Cotlarciuc, David Williamson, David Stephens, Abhishek Gulati

Publication number: 20110167001Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for determining compliance with a listing of persons banned from conducting financial transactions. Words appearing in a listing of a banned person and a financial transaction may be compared with defined words appearing in a database. Common words appearing in both the listing of the banned person and the database, and the transaction record and the database, may be identified, thereby identifying a first and second set of common defined words. The listing of the banned person is linked with countries based on the first set of common defined words and/or phrases and the transaction record is linked with countries based on the second set of common defined words and/or phrases. The countries may then be compared. Based on the outcome, the financial transaction may be permitted or suspended.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 7, 2010Publication date: July 7, 2011Applicant: The Western Union CompanyInventors: David Stephens, Kristen Davis, James Ludwig, Joseph Ninan, Jeannette Russell, Alexander Varakin

Publication number: 20070167668Abstract: A brachytherapy device for the provision of brachytherapy is disclosed. The brachytherapy device has at least one source lumen located outside a movable surface of the device. The source lumen may be secured to the movable outer surface in a manner whereby relative movement of the source lumen relative to the movable outer surface is permitted. The brachytherapy device is inserted into a body cavity. After insertion, the movable surface is moved to position the at least one source lumen closer to the tissue boundary of the cavity. One or more sources of radiation are then placed within the at least one source lumen to provide a customizable treatment. Also disclosed are methods for providing brachytherapy via body cavities.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 19, 2007Publication date: July 19, 2007Applicant: THERAGENICS CORPORATIONInventors: JACK WHITE, DAVID STEPHENS, AMIT GOVIL, JOSHUA BERGMAN, NATHAN GRIFFITH, KYLE MILLAGE

Publication number: 20070006814Abstract: The present invention is directed to a system for allowing animals to self administer drugs via intranasal absorption. The system comprises an aerosol dispersing apparatus (1) connected to a source of pressurized air (5) for ejecting a pharmaceutical composition contained in a reservoir (8) out of the aerosol dispersing apparatus nozzle head (3) and into a sensing chamber (12) when a sensor (16) detects the presence of an animal in the sensing chamber (12). The system can be used to study the addictiveness of new drugs as well as providing a model system for small animals, such as the mouse, to studying behavioral and physiological responses to addictive drugs.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 28, 2005Publication date: January 11, 2007Inventors: Andy Mead, David Stephens, Kevin Lesse, Jay Hirah

Publication number: 20050070698Abstract: Macrolide resistance associated with macrolide efflux (mef) in Streptococcus pneumoniae has been defined with respect to the genetic structure and dissemination of a novel mefE-containing chromosomal insertion element. The mefEgene is found on the 5?-end of a 5.5 kb or 5.4 kb insertion designated mega (macrolide efflux genetic assembly) found in at least four distinct sites of the pneumococcal genome. The element is transformable and confers macrolide resistance to susceptible S. pneumoniae. The first two open reading frames (ORFs) of the element form an operon composed of mefE and a predicted ATP-binding cassette homologous to msrA. Convergent to this efflux operon are three ORFs with homology to stress response genes of Tn5252. Mega is related to the recently described mefA-containing element Tn1207.1, but lacks genes necessary for transposition and has unique termini and insertion sites.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 25, 2002Publication date: March 31, 2005Inventors: Kathryn Gay, David Stephens
