20080243123 | Maxillary Bone Cutting System, Kit, and Method of Using the Same - A device includes a tubular element, and a cutter spring-biased relative to the tubular element. In an unloaded configuration the cutter is displaced relative to the tubular element by a displacement distance, and when the cutter is in a loaded configuration the displacement distance is reduced. A first structure is longitudinally fixed relative to the cutter and rotationally engaged relative to the tubular element. A length of the first structure extends proximally in the unloaded configuration. A second structure is longitudinally displaceable relative to the first structure. In the loaded configuration, a driver engages and rotates both the first and second structures, and thus the tubular element and cutter together. Once the cutter breaks through the bone, the cutter spring-biased into the unloaded configuration, resulting in disengagement of the first structure from the driver to prevent rotation of either the tubular element or the cutter. | 10-02-2008 |

20080208733 | System and method for auctioning services over an information exchange network - The present invention is directed to an improved system and method for auctioning services, which overcomes some of the drawbacks in the prior art systems and methods. In accordance with one aspect of the present invention, buyers request and specify at the start of the auction the number of lowest bids the buyers would like to see. By requesting to see more bids, the buyers would have greater opportunity to evaluate service providers based on factors other than price, thereby encouraging less price competition among providers. By requesting to see fewer bids, the buyers would have less opportunity to evaluate service providers based on factors other than price, thereby encouraging fierce price competition. The number of bids requested by the Buyer is made known to the bidders. The net effect is that the buyers can control the price/quality tradeoff at the onset of the auction process, and encourage the bidders to provide their lowest bids when pricing is important. This lets the buyers make their final decision based on factors in addition to price, at the lowest price possible. | 08-28-2008 |
