20140350623 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING ELECTRICAL STIMULATION BASED ON LOWEST OPERABLE VOLTAGE MULTIPLIER FOR USE WITH IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICE - Techniques are provided for use with implantable devices equipped with programmable voltage multipliers (including voltage dividers.) Candidate pulse widths are determined for selected voltage multipliers and stimulation vectors. Each candidate pulse width corresponds to a lowest pulse energy sufficient to achieve capture within the tissues of the patient (subject to a safety margin) using the selected vector and using the corresponding voltage multiplier. As such, a candidate pulse width represents a preferred or optimal pulse width, at least insofar as energy consumption is concerned. However, depending upon the capabilities of the device, the candidate pulse width might not be achievable. Accordingly, for each programmable vector, the system determines a lowest “operable” voltage multiplier sufficient to generate a pulse at a candidate pulse width subject to the capabilities of the device. The system then determines the corresponding current drain, and the vector achieving the lowest current drain at the lowest operable voltage multiplier is selected for the delivery of stimulation. | 11-27-2014 |

20110035341 | METHOD OF SECURITIZING A PORTFOLIO OF AT LEAST 30% DISTRESSED COMMERCIAL LOANS - A platform and a securitization methodology that provides lenders with an opportunity to maximize the returns on their distressed commercial credit facilities and overcomes the obstacles that have historically precluded the securitization of distressed commercial loans. The present invention is based upon an underlying portfolio of at least 30% distressed commercial loans for securitization that emulates the predictability and regularity of the cash flow and recovery characteristics of a portfolio of generally performing commercial loans, thus eliminating crucial historical barriers to securitization of such distressed commercial loans, such as the absence of predictable and regular cash flows and predictable recoveries. The methodology of the present invention takes a specific mix of distinct classifications of distressed commercial loans with specified characteristics in confluence with structural specifications, such as specific reserves and safeguards, to create a synthetic asset class that emulates the characteristics of a portfolio of performing loans. | 02-10-2011 |

20110248474 | TOW BAR SUSPENSION SYSTEM - A tow bar suspension system includes a tow bar pivotally connected to a trailer frame, first and second mounts coupling the suspension bar to the tow bar, an elongate connector, and a coupling link. The connector couples the coupling link and the suspension bar, while the coupling link couples the connection bracket and the trailer frame. The suspension bar is angled with respect to a longitudinal axis of the tow bar such that the weight of the tow bar is applied as a torsion force on the suspension bar, which resists this force to suspend the tow bar off a ground surface. The coupling link is adjustable in length to modify the pitch of the tow bar with respect to the ground surface. | 10-13-2011 |
