20140259879 | Badder than a Bed Bug Strategically Designed Modular Moat Systems for Control of Target Pests - Method and apparatus for killing target pests using strategically designed moats. The moats are constructed of barrier material that is difficult for the target pests to traverse, material that is easy for the target pests to traverse, and killing material, which tends to kill the target pests after they have made adequate contact with it. These elements are strategically positioned so that target pests that are attracted to a bait travel along a long zigzag path parallel to the barrier material and, hence, a long zigzag path along killing material held by the material that is easy for the target pests to traverse and along any killing material contained in a strategically positioned furrow. Moat system embodiments that provide selective access to baits and/or killing material are disclosed. Several examples are provided demonstrating applications to bed bugs, and explanation is provided for how to apply the invention to other pests. | 09-18-2014 |

20090204442 | METHOD OF VALUATION OF LIFE SETTLEMENTS AND OPTIMIZING PREMIUM FINANCING - The present invention proposes to integrate mortality table analysis and the future premium burden thereby creating a unit net asset value (“Unit NAV”) for investors holding a unit in the fund. A major component of Unit NAV in a viatical and life settlement transaction is the amount of expected premium burden yet to be paid during the anticipated lifetime of the insured. The future premium burden is in essence the “measure of risk” associated with the policy. As time passes, the predictability of paying future premiums is related to the cumulative mortality curve to a point in time. By determining the remaining cumulative mortality curve, the probability of having to pay the future premiums can be determined, and, incorporating these two elements into the valuation model, the anticipated “incremental value” at any point in time can be calculated. A determination can be made as to whether to use internal or external premium financing. Another point of novelty is that the proposed method simultaneously satisfies two different requirements of valuation adopted by the Financial Accounting Standards Board. | 08-13-2009 |

20120047289 | System and Method for Wireless Pairing via Wired Connection - Methods, devices, and computer-readable media related to establishing wireless connections using a wired connection are disclosed. A remote device is communicatively coupled via a wired connection. The remote device receives, via the wired connection, an initialization request to initialize a wireless connection to the remote device. A search of remote device data stored in the remote device is performed. The remote device data can store authentication data related to one or more wireless connections. At the remote device, an initialization response to the initialization request is determined based on the search. The remote device sends the initialization response via the wired connection. The initialization response can indicate whether the initialization response is accepted or rejected. If the initialization response is accepted, the wireless connection to the remote device can be subsequently established and the wired connection can be subsequently closed. | 02-23-2012 |

20110271536 | Selective Fiber Optic Sight System - An archery sight device for selectively illuminating fiber optic range markers calibrated to a specific distance, a selector switch and a range indicator display for accurately aiming and releasing an arrow at a designated target. The sight device comprises a housing that attaches between the upper and lower limb of an archery bow, and provides a sight window with a plurality of fiber optic pins with illuminating tips. A selective pin or set of pins is illuminated at a time, corresponding to a distance indicated by a digital display for the user to reference. A selector switch extending from the device and attached to the bow allows the user to cycle through pre-calibrated distances for a specific bow, while a range finder device may be incorporated to accurately measure the distance to a target and adjust the display and chosen illuminated pin as required. The device provides a means to accurately determine range and aim at a target, along with a sight window that reduces excess information and sighting problems associated with current fiber optic sights. | 11-10-2011 |
