20110143828 | VIDEO GAME FOR INTERACTIVELY MODELING COMMUNITY HEALTH BEHAVIOR AND COSTS FOR PREVENTION AND TREATMENT - A video game application that interactively simulates how a budget can be managed for health care prevention and treatment in a community based upon several factors. These factors include the availability and type of prevention and treatment facilities in the community, how effectively a populace uses available facilities, and how effectively costs are managed for increasing the capacity of treatment and prevention in the community. A player can advance to a next round of the video game if all of the virtual populace has either received treatment for an illness (when they are ill) or participated in a prevention action. Also, to successfully complete a round, the number of emergency hospital visits that occur during a round are less than a predetermined parameter and the costs incurred during the round do not exceed the current round's budget. Health indicators may also be associated with members of the virtual populace. | 06-16-2011 |

Heat is generated as a result of intensity. In the present invention, RF signals from multiple directional antennas are added at a target location. At this location, preferably the amplitudes of the RF signals that are in phase. When this occurs, the intensity at that target location dramatically increases thereby the heat at that point dramatically increases. The intense heat at the target location destroys the cells at the target location. However, the amplitudes of the RF signals are only added at the target location. As a result, the increased intensity and intense heat only occur at that target location. Therefore, the RF signals do not affect the body at any other location. | 05-21-2009 |

The anchoring member provides a compressive force while the resiliently compressible body provides a distraction. Without being bound by any theory, it is believed that the combination of the distraction and compressive forces created by interspinous vertebral implants of the present invention result in a rotational moment, which alleviates compression on the intervertebral disk. | 07-07-2011 |

20090118029 | Device for visualizing and practicing a correct golf swing - A golf training device comprises two shatter-resistant mirrors. A striking mirror is held in a horizontal position in the hitting area and is used as a striking mat for hitting golf balls. A second, adjustable mirror is positioned above the striking mirror. The adjustable mirror can be moved relative to the striking mirror and has means for adjusting the tilt angle of the adjustable mirror. Together, the two mirrors can be used to create the effect of a single virtual mirror lying beneath the ground surface so that the golfer can see his swing plane from along the edge of the plane of his swing as he hits the ball. | 05-07-2009 |
