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: A device may identify network interfaces of the device and may create a list of the network interfaces of the device. The device may receive a cell site name associated with the device and may generate dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) requests with a DHCP option that includes data identifying the cell site name and the network interfaces of the list. The device may broadcast the DHCP requests to one or more components that are connected, via connections, to the network interfaces, and may cause, based on broadcasting the DHCP requests to the one or more components, a user equipment to receive an indication of whether the connections to the network interfaces are valid.

Abstract: A method and service center (500, 600) for assisting a customer when said customer uses a communication device to navigate through a succession of choice options according to a default tree structure of option nodes. The service center obtains (202) customer information pertaining to the customer and identifies (204) from the customer information one or more customer-related keywords from a selection of predefined keywords. The service center then selects (206) a set of option nodes from the default tree structure based on a mapping of the one or more identified customer-related keywords to keywords assigned to the option nodes, and creates (208)a customized tree structure comprising the selected set of option nodes. The service center is then able to assist (210) the customer to navigate through a reduced succession of choice options in accordance with the customized tree structure, thus providing a more efficient and user-friendly experience to the customer.

Abstract: A casing joint is provided for use in landing a casing string in a well bore for an oil or gas well in a controlled manner so that movement of the casing string relative to the well bore does not cause the casing string to become damaged. The casing joint includes an inner tubular member disposed within an outer tubular member. The casing joint also includes a means for causing the inner tubular member to move axially relative to the outer tubular member in response to differential fluid pressures. The casing joint further includes a plurality of shear pins attaching the inner tubular member to the outer tubular member. The shear pins are selected to shear at a predetermined load so as to enable the inner tubular member to move axially relative to the outer tubular member. The casing joint also includes a pair of anti-rotation lugs which prevent the inner tubular member from rotating relative to the outer tubular member.
