Abstract: A viewer for gemstones allowing a person to view the light performance of a gemstone having a 360-degree light unit positioned above a base where the stone is placed. The light unit is attached to an adjustable mounting bracket which allows the bracket and light unit to move vertically through use of a control mechanism. The base allows for secure and consistent placement of the gemstone, and positioning of a light control structure, preferably made from a reflective material, over the stone. The position of the stone is under the center of the light unit and light control structure. The light control structure has an aperture to allow the light from the light unit to enter.

Abstract: In a system including a resource (100) which is shared among a number of users, it is difficult to distribute the available capacity of the resources fairly among the users and still maximize resource utilization. Additionally, it is desirable to allow at least some of the control over usage rates to remain with the users, while at the same time avoiding situations where the resource is overloaded. A system and method are disclosed wherein usage rates are selected from among a set of available rates according to a set of persistence vectors.

Abstract: A method and device are disclosed, for the determination of directed physical parameters, which may be described by vectors of a quasi-stationary harmonic vector field at a determination point. On detecting the measured parameters for a co-ordinate axis of the vector field, arising at a sensor, the magnitude of the vector may be determined by measurement of the components in three orthogonal co-ordinate directions. The above are sequentially carried out, by rotating the same single sensor, arranged at 90 DEG  - arctan  2ROOT 0,5 to the axis of rotation, by 120 DEG  each time. The unequivocal direction of the vector is ultimately determined by an intersection of the ambiguous vectors of various directions, resulting from the data on taking further measurements of vector components.

Abstract: The invention relates to a turntable ladder or the like with a plurality of ladder parts which can be moved separately with the aid of a control. The control should be designed in such a way that vibrations of the ladder are largely suppressed. For this purpose, the control initially maps the idealised movement behaviour of the ladder in a dynamic model with the aid of differential equations. The pilot control calculates the control variables of the drives of the ladder parts from the dynamic model for substantially vibration-free movement of the ladder. <IMAGE>

Abstract: There is now a market for kits containing the necessary components for performing protein synthesis reactions using template DNA of the experimenter. One category of existing system for performing protein synthesis reactions is based on an S-30 extract from the bacteria E. coli. It is disclosed here that a simple fractionation process can dramatically improve the performance of an S-30 prokaryotic protein synthesis reaction mixture. In one embodiment, the fractionation is a simple freezing and thawing of an S-30 extract combined with a supplemental mix, followed by centrifugation. The resulting fractionated S-30 reaction mixture yields more full-length target protein and less non-full length or non-target protein than possible using prior art S-30 systems.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses for down-converting an electromagnetic (EM) signal by aliasing the EM signal are described herein. Briefly stated, such methods, systems, and apparatuses operate by receiving an EM signal and an aliasing signal having an aliasing rate. The EM signal is aliased according to the aliasing signal to down-convert the EM signal. The term aliasing, as used herein, refers to both down converting an EM signal by under-sampling the EM signal at an aliasing rate, and down-converting an EM signal by transferring energy from the EM signal at the aliasing rate. In an embodiment, the EM signal is down-converted to an intermediate frequency (IF) signal. In another embodiment, the EM signal is down-converted to a demodulated baseband information signal. In another embodiment, the EM signal is a frequency modulated (FM) signal, which is down-converted to a non-FM signal, such as a phase modulated (PM) signal or an amplitude modulated (AM) signal.
