Title: Data receiving apparatus
Inventor: OGASAWARA SATOSHI
IPC: H04L13/08
Filed: 1996-10-15
Abstract: A data receiving apparatus writes only a necessary part of data received via a communication network or the like in a file (6). Start indicating information and end indicating information located before and after character string data to be downloaded are previously registered in a RAM (6) of a personal computer. Character string data received via a communication control section (13) is temporarily stored in a reception buffer (6), and the start indicating information and end indicating information are detected from the received character string data. Then, character string data located between the start indicating information and end indicating information is extracted from the received character string data and the extracted character string data is downloaded into a file. As a necessary part in the received data is written in a file, the file size is prevented from increasing and a user need not instruct the start and end of the desired character string data to be received, thus significantly simplifying the instructing operation.

Title: Method for detection and treatment of breast cancer
Inventor: THOMPSON MARILYN E
IPC: C07K14/82
Filed: 1995-01-17
Abstract: The present invention provides a method of detecting and diagnosing pre-invasive breast cancer by identifying differentially expressed genes in early, pre-invasive breast cancer tissue. Differentially expressed genes can be used as genetic markers to indicate the presence of pre-invasive cancerous tissues. Microscopically directed tissue sampling techniques combined with differential display or differential screening of cDNA libraries are used to determine differential expression of genes in the early stages of breast cancer. Differential expression of genes in pre-invasive breast cancer tissue is confirmed by RT-PCR, nuclease protection assays and in-situ hybridization of ductal carcinoma in situ tissue RNA and control tissue RNA. The present invention also provides a method of screening for compounds that induce expression of the BRCA1 gene, whose product negatively regulates cell growth in both normal and malignant mammary epithlial cells. The present invention also relates to gene therapy method using this gene.

Title: Method and device for sliding and positioning sleeve-shaped resilient components on cylindrical or conical basic bodies
Inventor: HAIM KLAUS-DIETER
IPC: H02G15/18
Filed: 1996-03-22
Abstract: The invention concerns a method and device for sliding and positioning sleeve-shaped resilient radially expandable components (8), made of a highly resilient material, without exerting great force, on cylindrical or conical basic bodies (10) whose outer diameter is larger than the inner diameter of these sleeve-shaped components (8), such as for example parts of a cable fitting set slid and positioned on a cable end prepared in a manner known per se for a cable terminal or cable connection. Immediately before the component is slid onto the basic body (10), a plurality of elongate thin flexible bar-like slide tongues (2) are distributed around periphery in the cavity of the component (8) which has an approximately circular cross-section. The slide tongues (2) are inserted at slight lateral spacings from one another. On these slide tongues (2) the expanding component (8) is pushed slidingly onto the basic body (10) with only slight exertion of force. The slide tongues (2) are then withdrawn. A sliding sleeve is used to fit the component onto the basic body, said sleeve comprising a transverse cover (1) which forms a spacer or partial annular band and connects a plurality of laterally mutually spaced, elongate thin flexible bar-like slide tongues (2) made of a material which can slide more easily than the material of the basic body (10).

Inventor: HOWELL ROBERT MARK
IPC: H04M3/54
Filed: 1997-09-26
Abstract: A telephone wiretapping system having a call-forward event and reporting processor for producing a call-forward event control signal when a call from a calling party to a predetermined telephone line is to be call-forwarded to a different telephone line.  A switch is responsive to the control  signal produced by the call  forward event and reporting system for switching the recording device from the target telephone line to the call-forward event and reporting processor when the control signal indicates a call-forwarding event.   With such an arrangement,  the recording device will recorded calling event signals to, or from, the target telephone line even though the calling event signals are occurring at the call-forwarded telephone line.   The call-forward event and reporting processor produces signalling information taking place between the telephone line of the calling party and the telephone line of the different,  call-forwarded telephone line.   The switch couples the signalling information taking place between the telephone line of the calling party and the telephone line of the different, call-forwarded telephone line produced by the call-forward event and  reporting processor to the recording device when the call-forward event control signal is produced.   A tone generator is coupled between the switch and the call-forward event and reporting processor for producing a predetermined tone for the recording device when the switch couples the recording device to the call-forward event and reporting processor. The predetermined tone is a "fourth" column DTMF tone.

Title: Micro orifice nozzle having fan spray pattern
Inventor: WALDRUM JOHN E
IPC: B05B1/04
Filed: 1997-12-29
Abstract: A fan spray nozzle provides a linear spray pattern of very fine droplets suitable for spraying thin invert emulsions containing active agents such as herbicides, pesticides, fungicides, growth regulators and the like, especially using an array of nozzles mounted on a moving vehicle. Each nozzle has a nozzle plug fitted into a nozzle body having an indentation complementary to the plug. A chamber in the body is coupled to the indentation and to an inlet for feeding pressurized liquid into the chamber. One or both of the nozzle plug and the nozzle body have a plurality of narrow grooves (0.001 to 0.015 inch or 25 to 400 microns in width), in a line along an abutment between the nozzle body and the nozzle plug and leading from the chamber to an external wall of the body. A manual release such as a thumbscrew holds the nozzle plug in the indentation, and when released enables the nozzle plug to pivot or hinge relative to the nozzle body, thereby separating the two and flushing the orifices in a direction limited to the direction of normal spray discharge. The hinging is facilitated by an elongated seal between the plug and the body along an edge of the indentation opposite from the orifices, and an O-ring on the shaft of the release that resiliently biases the plug to lift from the body.
