Abstract: A soil sampling device for collecting samples of soil provides a single use unit with an integrally molded plunger. The soil sampling device includes a cylindrical body having a first chamber and a second chamber, with each chamber comprising a cylindrical wall having a longitudinal axis and an end wall. Optionally, the sampling device may include additional chambers depending on the application. An open end of each chamber defines a mouth which is adapted for inserting into soil. A piston may be positioned within each chamber, and the end walls include a projecting member extending outwardly therefrom which defines a plunger. The end wall includes a reduced cross-section around the projecting member and is adapted to break when a force is applied to the projecting member to thereby permit the plunger enter into the body and thereby push the piston along the longitudinal axis to expel a sample of soil collected in the body. Preferably, the piston is frictionally held in the body, for example by frictionally engaging an inner surface of the cylindrical wall. Optionally, the piston includes at least one seal for frictionally engaging the inner surface of the cylindrical wall.

Title: Switch architecture for digital multiplexed signals
Inventor: WEMPLE DONALD JAMES
IPC: H04Q11/04
Filed: 1999-09-29
Abstract: In a switch in accordance with the principles of the present invention, switch modules that include a disassembly block, a switching core, and an assembly block are combined to implement an NXM multi-port switch that effectively connects N input ports to M output ports, provides broadcast capability, and may be non-blocking. The switch operates on data channels that all have their respective data blocks organized in the same number of bit-packs. Disassemblers within each module slice incoming data blocks into bit-packs and route the bit-packs to switching cores. A switching core within each module connects each input channel with each output channel at the bit-pack level.      Assemblers within each module receive the switched bit-packs from each switching core and assemble the bit-packs into data blocks for each of the output channels.

Patent CA-2287344-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LANE DAVID PHILIP
IPC: A61K38/17
Filed: 1998-04-20
Abstract: Mdm2 binds to p53 in cells in which mdm2 is not overexpressed, i.e. in cells in which mdm2 is expressed at normal or low levels, and that in these cells, this interaction targets the p53 for degradation. This finding means that inhibiting mdm2 production and/or inhibiting the binding of mdm2 to p53 allows levels of p53 to increase by reducing the clearance of p53 by mdm2, and can be used to activate p53 function in cells other than those in which mdm2 is overexpressed. This allows the use of an agent having the property of disrupting the binding of p53 and mdm2 or inhibiting the production of mdm2 in a population of cells, in the preparation of a medicament for activating p53, wherein the population of cells do not overexpress mdm2. Such medicaments are useful in the treatment of conditions such as cancer, viral infections or conditions in which p53 or mdm2 is not functional.

Title: System and method for anonymous access to the internet
Inventor: PRAKASH SUTI
IPC: H04L29/06
Filed: 2000-03-03
Abstract: A system and method for enabling an Internet user to anonymously access services offered by Internet content providers. The invention uses a proxy server operated by a proxy with whom the user, as a client of the proxy, has established a line of credit or has deposited funds. The client and proxy have also agreed upon an alias for the client, and the proxy has provided the client an alias account code to use in purchasing over the Internet merchandise from Internet content providers. The client uses a browser to access the Internet through the proxy. The proxy server communicates to the Internet, under the alias, all transactions originating with the client; and also receives all transactions directed to the alias and communicates them to the client browser. The proxy examines the transactions for the occurrence of the alias account code provided by the client to purchase merchandise from an Internet content provider, and when finding it, seeks to determine whether the client has sufficient credit or funds for the proxy to guarantee payment for the merchandise. Depending on instructions from the client, the proxy will also receive the physical merchandise and make it available to the client according to the client's instructions.

Filed: 2000-03-14
Abstract: A horn antenna is provided which is capable of operating at a plurality of separate frequencies while providing substantially equalized E and H-plane patterns for each of the separate frequencies. The antenna includes a coupling portion to permit coupling to a communication device. An inner portion is coupled to the coupling portion, and includes a first choke having a depth which extends substantially parallel to a central longitudinal axis of the antenna and a width which extends in a radial direction of the antenna. The depth and the width of the first choke are set so that the first choke will operate at the first frequency. An outer portion is coupled to the inner portion, wherein the outer portion has a maximum diameter in the radial direction which is greater than the maximum diameter in the radial direction of the inner portion. The outer portion includes a second choke which also has a depth to extend substantially parallel to the central longitudinal axis of the antenna, and a width which extends in the radial direction. The depth and the width of the second choke are greater than the depth and the width of the first choke, and are set so that the second choke will operate at the second frequency. By virtue of the fact that the depths of the chokes extend in a direction substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the horn, the maximum electrical aperture of the antenna can be very close in size to the maximum physical diameter.

IPC: G06F21/12
Filed: 2000-05-26
Abstract: A method, computer program, signal transmission and apparatus verify instructions in a module of a computer program during linking using pre-verification constraints with fully lazy loading. It is first determined whether a first module which is loaded has passed verification one-module-at-a-time before linking. If the first module has passed verification, a pre-verification constraint on a constrained module is read, if any. It is then determined if the constrained module is loaded, if any pre-verification constraint is read. If the constrained module is not already loaded, the pre-verification constraint is retained as a verification constraint.
