A method utilizes sputter transport techniques to produce arrays or layers of self-forming, self-oriented columnar structures characterized as discrete, single-crystal Group III nitride posts or columns on various substrates. Such corrosive effects are especially inhibited in the treatment of sour wells where H2S corrosion is a potential problem as well as conduits used during the treatment of subterranean formations. The detector arrangement is positionable such that a section of the detector arrangement is torque-free. Each of the at least two versions is evaluated using a plurality of operating conditions. The compounds are useful for the treatment andor prophylaxis of diseases which are associated with the modulation of CB1 receptors, including obesity. A hitch assembly is removably connected to a vehicle and includes a docking structure for removably connecting to an upper portion of the power chair to permit the drive assembly and wheels of the power chair to be raised while the chair is in a docking position.

A multi-tiered building structure. The system includes a central base with a motor which moves a rotating member of the base. The water inert polymer may be a polymer such as an emulsion polymer or a latex polymer.

A method or process for substituting an inert gas or blend of inert gases for ambient air in the head space of a container filled with leftover oil-based finish prior to sealing the lid. The AQM process is queue based and involves applying at a queue size threshold congestion notification to communications packets in a queue of a link via packet dropping; and adjusting said queue size threshold on the basis of the congestion level. The design of the incomplete incurving ring allows keeping the capsular bag open and tense to allow a greater displacement of the optic, and the incurving tabs provide a greater accommodation power by curving the optic and increasing its thickness.

A communications channel comprises a seed selector that selectively removes X M-bit symbols of user data from a seed set comprising Y M-bit symbols and that selects a scrambling seed from Y-X symbols remaining in the seed set, where X, Y and M are integers greater than one. Also set forth are their preparation by reacting the icosahedral boranes closo-B12H122, closo-1-CB11H12 and closo-1,12-2-1,12-C2B10H10 with an acid anhdride or acid chloride to form the ester or an alkylating agent to form the ether. An output responsive to the data signals and to a first clock signal indicates whether all of the data signals represent logical zero data.

Timely projections of product sales for a reporting time period are obtained by combining actual sales data received from reporting stores and estimated sales data for non-reporting stores. An embodiment of the invention includes a minimum of three channels for digital computation in Primary Flight Computers and four channels for digitalanalog conversion in Actuation Control Electronics. The male clip is loosely inserted through the insertion hole and engaged with the female clip around the insertion hole via an abutting brim, thereby producing a gap between the insertion hole and the male clip, thus increasing the degree of freedom of positional adjustment, reducing the steps for mounting and controlling the accuracy of the attachment, reducing the overall cost.

The monitoring system for a gas turbine engine including a viewing tube assembly having an inner end and an outer end. This system includes a plurality of components positionable on a selected location for establishment of a multi-station decontamination and containment facility to decontaminate personnel and to contain contaminants collected during the decontamination process. Further, the invention also provides the capability of properly checkpointing a data write to a stripe according to whether or not the stripe unit has been migrated previously. Because both the initiation and the rate of polymerization may be controlled with temperature, the inventive methods are especially suitable for ring opening metathesis polymerization reactions and for molding polymer articles that require extended pot-lives. Processing is laser-performed in relation to a selected material whose internal crystalline structure becomes appropriately changed thereby to establish the desired mechanical properties for a created device.

A novel maize variety designated X00B150 and seed, plants and plant parts thereof, produced by crossing Pioneer Hi-Bred International, Inc. When new photosensitive mediums are loaded in a certain image forming apparatus, attribute information of the new photosensitive mediums is transmitted to the database via the local area network. A password component is operable on the client system for automatically on a re-occurring basis generating a password for an application operable by the client system based upon at least two inputs accessible from the client system. The front support piece is longitudinally adjustable and a length of the toe strap is adjustable to enable the binding to receive boots of different length and style.

A liquid drop ejecting device is provided with liquid drop ejecting heads having different specifications from each other and plural dummy load circuits which apply electric loads to the liquid drop ejecting heads, and analogue switches for switching the dummy load circuit which is connected to the liquid drop ejecting heads according to the liquid drop ejecting head to be driven. This circuit includes a data path, which has: a transmitter latch controlled by a transmitter clock in a first clock domain; a receiver latch controlled by a receiver clock in a second clock domain; and an intermediate latch coupled between the transmitter latch and the receiver latch. The cavity unit is constituted by a plurality of sheet members which are stacked on each other. The keel post is attached to a triangular control frame, the base of which forms the control bar.

In an image reader having a static-document reading function and a moving-document reading function, a static-document pressing member is movably arranged on a cover portion and a sheet passing opening is opened or closed by moving the static-document pressing member. The first system may receive one of the first data signals associated with a data frame, determine first synchronization information corresponding to one of the second data signals associated with the data frame, and output the first synchronization information. Additional systems and methods are also presented. A cell and battery are also disclosed incorporating the disclosed positive electrode.

The invention concerns a product inhibiting transduction of G heterotrimeric protein signals combined with another anti-cancer agent, in particular farnesyltransferase inhibitors, taxol or gemcitabin, for simultaneous, separate or prolonged therapeutic use in cancer treatment. An assignment is provided of base addresses to the devices. A capacitor is electrically connected across the distal terminals and connectable in parallel with a series-connected energy source and switch. In a plan view of each end surface, each abutment section lies on a portion of an imaginary five-pointed star which includes five outer vertices alternating with five inner vertices. The attachment allows each roller to pivot independently of movement of other rollers.
