20120226895 | PROTECTING OPERATING SYSTEM CONFIGURATION VALUES - In a pre-operating system environment on a device prior to loading and running an operating system on the device, a policy identifying configuration settings for the operating system is obtained. The operating system itself is prevented from changing this policy, but the policy can be changed under certain circumstances by components of the pre-operating system environment. The policy is compared to configuration values used by the operating system, and the operating system is allowed to boot with the configuration values if the configuration values satisfy the policy. However, if the configuration values do not satisfy the policy, then a responsive action is taken. | 09-06-2012 |
20130054979 | SECTOR MAP-BASED RAPID DATA ENCRYPTION POLICY COMPLIANCE - To comply with a policy for a computing device indicating that data written by the computing device to the storage volume after activation of the policy be encrypted, a sector map is accessed. The sector map identifies one or more sectors of a storage volume and also identifies, for each of the one or more sectors of the storage volume, a signature of the content of the sector. In response to a request to read the content of a sector, the content of the sector is returned without decrypting the content if the sector is one of the one or more sectors and the signature of the content of the sector matches the signature of the sector identified in the sector map. Otherwise, the content of the sector is decrypted and the decrypted content is returned. | 02-28-2013 |

The sector map identifies one or more sectors of a storage volume and also identifies, for each of the one or more sectors of the storage volume, a signature of the content of the sector. In response to a request to read the content of a sector, the content of the sector is returned without decrypting the content if the sector is one of the one or more sectors and the signature of the content of the sector matches the signature of the sector identified in the sector map. Otherwise, the content of the sector is decrypted and the decrypted content is returned. | 01-29-2015 |

20090118486 | USPA1 AND USPA2 ANTIGENS OF MORAXELLA CATARRHALIS - The present invention discloses the existence of two novel proteins UspA1 and UspA2, and their respective genes uspA1 and uspA2. Each protein encompasses a region that is conserved between the two proteins and comprises an epitope that is recognized by the MAb 17C7. One or more than one of these species may aggregate to form the very high molecular weight form (i.e. greater than 200 kDa) of the UspA antigen. Compositions and both diagnostic and therapeutic methods for the treatment and study of | 05-07-2009 |

20140027155 | DIFFERENTIAL MODE SIGNAL CONNECTOR AND CABLE ASSEMBLY - A cable assembly and a connector assembly is disclosed. The cable assembly includes a cable having a connector assembly attached on one end and a plurality of conductor pairs extending through the cable, wherein each conductor in a first conductor pair is equidistant to each conductor in a second conductor pair adjacent to the first conductor pair. The connector assembly includes a housing and a plurality of connector contact pairs extending through the housing, wherein each connector contact is associated with one of the conductors in the cable assembly and each connector contact in a first connector contact pair is equidistant to each connector contact in a second connector contact pair adjacent to the first connector contact pair. The connector assembly may be hermetically sealed. | 01-30-2014 |

20110201396 | METHODS OF PLAYING DRAWING GAMES AND ELECTRONIC GAME SYSTEMS ADAPTED TO INTERACTIVELY PROVIDE THE SAME - An electronic game system is provided, the electronic game system having: a drawing input device; a processor located within the drawing input device, the processor being configured to convert a user input signal into a display signal; a means for transmitting the display signal to a display; and memory for storing machine readable computer program code, the memory including instructions for causing the processor to implement a method of playing a drawing game. | 08-18-2011 |
20130095923 | GAMING SYSTEM - A remote control for use with a media player coupled to an output device. The media player is configured to receive signals from the remote control, to read and execute information stored on a game medium, and to cause the output device to transmit generated signals. The remote control includes a controller, an input coupled to the controller, a transmitter coupled to the controller, and a receiver coupled to the controller. The controller is configured to selectively operate in a first mode that causes the transmitter to transmit a signal upon user actuation of the input, and a second mode that prevents the transmitter from transmitting signals upon user actuation of the input. Reception of a first generated signal by the receiver causes the controller to operate in the first mode, and reception of a second generated signal by the receiver causes the controller to operate in the second mode. | 04-18-2013 |

20090092606 | Antibacterial treatments - The present invention provides a method of providing a bacterium binding component suitable for use in the preparation of a product for use in combating a target bacterium (including the inactivation of said bacterium and/or the treatment or diagnosis of an infection by said bacterium). The method comprises the steps of: contacting bacterium binding components of an eukaryotic micro-organism with the target bacterium for binding of the target bacterium with a bacterium binding component, and lysing the eukaryotic micro-organism; separating out the bacterium; treating the separated out bacterium so as to release the bacterium binding component from said bacterium; and recovering the bacterium binding components. | 04-09-2009 |
