20130195683 | Pre-Charging Pump Chamber By Preemptively Opening A Valve - A reciprocating pump with chamber-charging mechanism is provided. In an example diaphragm pump, a discharge valve can be opened by the pressure of fluid leaving the pump and can also be opened by an intermittent mechanical linkage actuated by the reciprocating member powering the pump. The discharge valve is mechanically opened to allow pressure backflow into the pumping chamber, thereby charging compressible fluid mixtures and gases with an increase in pressure. The increased pressure enables the compressible fluids to open the discharge valve on the next compression stroke and exit the pump. In an implementation, the discharge valve is pushed open by the reciprocating power source in a configuration that seals the valve mechanism from well fluid. In another implementation, the discharge valve is pulled open to pre-charge the pumping chamber. | 08-01-2013 |
20130312851 | LOW PROFILE VALVES - Low profile valves are described. In an embodiment, a tubular member for fluid transport has a valve constructed within a wall of the tubular member for controlling a radial flow of fluid, such as water, oil, or gas, through the wall without impeding the flow of fluid or tools through the tubular member or near the exterior of the tubular member. The low profile valve may be used, for example, in the oil and gas industries as a pressure relief valve or check valve. When used as a pressure relief valve, a load member such as a spring, strap, or rocker arm maintains a backpressure on the valve. Example low profile valves can provide flow control from within a very thin annulus between other components. | 11-28-2013 |

20130343939 | Two-Step Hydraulic Valve - A two-step hydraulic valve is described. In an implementation, a two-step hydraulic valve with retrograde spool action has a pilot spool that controls hydraulic force applied to a main spool to switch a rod of a hydraulic actuator back-and-forth between extension and retraction. The main spool is hydraulically driven in retrograde motion to the pilot spool, providing improved reliability and switching action for the valve. The pilot spool also has an overtravel feature that can be used to hyperextend the rod for various purposes. In an example system, the two-step hydraulic valve controls a hydraulic actuator connected to drive a submersible reciprocating pump, such as a diaphragm pump. | 12-26-2013 |

20150242795 | STRENGTHS RECOGITION SYSTEM - A system extracts strengths attributable to persons from a database containing recognition transactions within a company communication system and provides metrics that reflect skills attributable to the persons for performance reviews, evaluations and talent management. A skills finder feature searches words from a predefined dictionary comprising words associated with strengths. A controller initiates the skills finder feature to identify transactions created or modified within the company communication system within a current predetermined period of time. A skills finding search engine searches a temporary table for words within the dictionary and extracts each strength recognized. Each extracted strength is associated with one or more skills categories. Recognitions are aggregated by skills categories and compiled into an aggregated table containing information depicting the skills categories for each of the persons accumulated from previous and current predetermined periods of time. At least a portion of the information in the aggregated table is displayed. | 08-27-2015 |
20150242796 | RECOGITION EMAIL LISTENER - A system facilitates employee recognition and the analysis of performance indicators for evaluation of employee performance for users of email software by utilizing a plugin to the email software to direct emails containing recognition-related content into a predetermined mailbox. The plugin provides a check box on an email interface, the email-sending user automatically adds the address for the predetermined mailbox to the email interface bcc field by checking the check box. A recognition listener periodically loops through the emails within the predetermined mailbox gathering desired recognition-related information, such as the identity of an email-sending user, the identity of each recipient, and the textual content for each email. The recognition listener calls an application processing interface to facilitate further processing of the desired information. The application processing interface may interface with a recognition software platform to process the desired information by accumulating, categorizing, and presenting the desired information as processed. | 08-27-2015 |

20120122770 | Cell Cycle Arrest and Apoptosis - The HIV-1 accessory gene vpr encodes a conserved 96-amino acid protein that is necessary and sufficient for the HIV-1-induced block of cellular proliferation and induction of apoptosis. Expression of vpr in CD4.sup.+ lymphocytes results in G2 arrest, followed by apoptosis. ATR, as a cellular factor that mediates Vpr-induced cell cycle arrest, is required for activation of the Breast Cancer-Associated Protein-1 (BRCA1). In addition, the Growth Arrest and DNA Damage protein (GADD45) is upregulated by Vpr in an ATR-dependent manner. Posttranscriptional silencing of either ATR or GADD45 leads to nearly complete suppression of the pro-apoptotic and/or cell cycle arrest effect of Vpr. | 05-17-2012 |
