Patent number: 8955250Abstract: Various embodiments related to a tree guard are disclosed. One embodiment provides an L shaped breakaway bracket for use with a modular tree guard assembly. The L shaped breakaway bracket includes a horizontal member extending substantially perpendicularly from a vertical member, wherein the vertical member is thinner and longer than the horizontal member. At least one fastener hole is provided in the horizontal member for receiving a fastener for securing the horizontal member to a rail. At least one fastener hole is provided in the vertical member for receiving a fastener for securing the vertical member to a post. The breakaway bracket is adapted to break along the intersection of the horizontal member and the vertical member and separate the rail from the post when a force that would otherwise be sufficient to deform the rail is applied to the rail.Type: GrantFiled: April 3, 2012Date of Patent: February 17, 2015Assignee: Curb Allure LLCInventors: Kimberly Johnson, Bruce Bagley

Publication number: 20130268891Abstract: Methods and systems that facilitate rapid response to critical changes in a patient's condition. The disclosed techniques and structures may facilitate rapid input of data (e.g., observed conditions) by a nurse or other clinician, and may provide clinical decision support information based on the input data. In some cases, a user interface that dynamically updates a list of possible causes (e.g., medical conditions) in response to each received input may be provided. In some cases, a user interface presents input selection controls in a check list-type format, and allows a nurse to answer all, or only a subset, of the input selections, in any order.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 6, 2012Publication date: October 10, 2013Inventors: George Michael Finley, Juntao Michael Yuan, Ron Kimberly Johnson

Patent number: 7625979Abstract: Lithium-terminated polymers of one or more conjugated dienes and of one or more mono alkenyl arenes are coupled by reaction with an alkoxy silane coupling agent having the formula Rx—Si—(OR?)y, where x is 0 or 1, x+y=4, R and R? are the same or different, R is selected from aryl hydrocarbon radicals, linear alkyl hydrocarbon radicals and branched alkyl hydrocarbon radicals, and R? is selected from linear and branched alkyl hydrocarbon radicals, such that the resulting polymer composition contains less than about ten weight percent of uncoupled polymer diblock. The polymer compositions are subsequently selectively hydrogenated, and are useful in a variety of compounds and end use applications.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 2003Date of Patent: December 1, 2009Assignee: Kraton Polymers U.S. LLCInventors: Harvey E.
