The invention utilizes acoustic (sonic) agents which may be optionally modulated with specific signals, to cause negative effects on the normal behaviors exhibited by wood-infesting invertebrates, which may result in the invertebrates being injured or killed, unable to reproduce, or caused to flee the wood that the invertebrates are infesting. | 11-20-2014 |

20120284056 | Controlling Access to Medical Records - A method for controlling the access of healthcare providers to the medical records of a patient held in a medical record database. A patient controls the access of the healthcare providers to the patient's medical records held in a medical record database. The patient determines access rights to be granted to the healthcare provider and generates an access authorization message which specifies the access rights. The access authorization message is transmitted from the patient to one or more healthcare providers. The healthcare provider transmits the access authorization together with a request for access to the patient's medical records to the medical record database. The medical record database verifies that the access authorization message originated from the patient before granting the healthcare provider access to the patient's medical records in accordance with the access authorization message. | 11-08-2012 |

20080224463 | Method for Producing a Data Carrier - In order to produce a data carrier, a substrate is printed with a printing ink and personalized by means of a laser. The printing ink is laser-active and is converted at least in regions during the personalization in such a way that, for example, a silver-grade pigment is formed which is readily visible only when the substrate is inclined. In particular, the printing ink has a comparatively small proportion of carbon black that is converted by the laser essentially without disturbing combustion and overall formation. | 09-18-2008 |
20080284155 | Method of Producing a Booklet, Data Page Produced by this Method and Booklet Produced by the Method - The booklet comprises a number of sheets between a cover, and each sheet has a front side and a rear side. At least one data page is provided that is joined to the cover in a fixed manner. The data page comprises a flexible layer and this flexible layer projects with an area out of a data carrier. On this area, the data page is joined to the cover and to the remaining sheets. The flexible layer is flatly joined to at least one other layer, for example, by welding or bonding and is thus inseparably bound without a mechanical joining part. | 11-20-2008 |

20080295492 | Injector cleaning system based on pressure decay - An injector cleaning system for use with an exhaust treatment device is disclosed. The injector cleaning system may have a supply of injection fluid and an injector configured to receive and inject the injection fluid. The injector cleaning system may also have a pressure sensor associated with the injector to generate a signal indicative of the pressure of the injection fluid supplied to the injector. The injector cleaning system may further have a controller in communication with the injector and the pressure sensor. The controller may be configured to determine a pressure decay rate of injection fluid supplied to the injector during a normal injection event based on the signal. The controller may be further configured to compare the determined pressure decay rate to an expected pressure decay rate, and supply cleaning fluid to the injector based on the comparison. | 12-04-2008 |
