Abstract: A jewellery device comprises a unitary body having defined therein an aperture, a clamping member disposed within the aperture, and a shaft for displacing the clamping member between an open position and a closed position within the aperture. The aperture is sized to accommodate a part of the body to be decorated, such as the nipple of a breast, when the clamping member is in the open position. Once a nipple has been inserted into the aperture, the shaft is displaced so as to bring the clamping member into contact with the nipple, and thus grip the nipple. The device allows the strength of the grip exerted on the nipple to be varied. The device may be plated with a precious metal, and may be provided with any combination of adornments such as jewels, spikes, and studs, to increase its aesthetic appeal.

Abstract: A method of detecting conditions during the operation of a transport refrigeration unit (20) which may cause shutdown, and then modifying the operation of the unit in an attempt to find an operating condition that will keep the unit operating safely. The unit includes a compressor (26) driven by an engine (30) operable at low and high speeds. Upon detecting (264) an over-temperature condition of the engine a first modification (282) is initiated, including switching the engine to low speed.      If the engine temperature does not drop to a safe value (288, 292), a second modification (296) is initiated. If the engine was in low speed (280) when the over-temperature condition was detected, the second modification is initiated immediately.      Upon detecting (314) a low oil pressure condition, the engine is switched (316) to high speed. If the oil pressure rises to a safe level, engine operation is continued at high speed.      Appropriate alarms (326) accompany the modified operating conditions.

Abstract: B-Cell malignacies, such as the B-cell subtype of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and chronic lymphocytic leukemia, are significant contributors to cancer mortality. The response of B-cell malignancies to various forms of treatment is mixed. Traditional methods of treating B-cell malignancies, including chemotherapy and radiotherapy, have limited utility due to toxic side effects.  Immunotherapy with anti-CD20 antibodies have also provided limited success.  The use of antibodies that bind with the CD22 antigen, however, provides an effective means to treat B-cell malignancies such as indolent and aggressive forms of B-cell lymphomas, and acute and chronic forms of lymphatic leukemias.  Moreover, immunotherapy with anti-CD22 antibodies requires comparatively low doses of antibody protein, and can be used effectively in multimodal therapies.

Title: Electronic bulletin board system
Inventor: KIKUGAWA SATORU
IPC: G06Q10/10
Filed: 1999-03-10
Granted: 2005-09-13
Abstract: A message desired to be posted on an electronic bulletin board sent from a user's computer is checked with a posting-prohibited word list and a heed-required word list. In the posting-prohibited word list, words previously selected as those inadequate to be posted are registered. In the heed-required list, words previously selected as those to be heeded about the social reaction even though the message is allowed to be posted are registered. When the message desired to be posted includes no posting-prohibited word, the message is posted on an electronic bulletin board. When the message includes any heed-required word, the posting of the message is reported to an operation manager computer. When the message includes any posting-prohibited word, a letter screen indicating that the message cannot be posted is sent to the user's computer which has sent the message, and the operation manager computer is informed of the rejection of the posting.

Title: Integrity protection in a telecommunications system
Inventor: JOHANSSON JORGEN
IPC: H04W12/02
Filed: 1998-04-30
Granted: 2009-10-06
Abstract: The present invention relates to determining the geographic location of a mobile station in a mobile communications system. The object of the invention is to protect the integrity of the user of the mobile station, so as to prevent the location of the mobile station being established by an outsider against the will of the user. In this respect, an authorization check is carried out in conjuction with a request for determination of the geographical location of a mobile station. The geographical location is only determined when authorization is found for the mobile station to be located. This authorization control involves checking that the user of the mobile station has granted permission for the location of his mobile station MS to be determined on the part of an outsider. The authority check may also include the condition that only certain outsiders may be informed of the geographical location of the mobile station.

Title: A modular time-space switch
Inventor: LINDBERG MIKAEL
IPC: H04Q11/04
Filed: 1998-08-10
Granted: 2008-10-21
Abstract: The present invention relates to a switch structure for circuit switching. According to the invention, part of the space switch functionality of a time-space (TS) switch core is broken out and arranged in groups of switch adapter boards, and the TS-switch core itself is divided into a matrix of smaller and independent TS-modules that are associated with the switch adapter boards. Each group of switch adapter boards is co-operating with a predetermined row of TS-modules in the matrix for input of data to the TS-modules in that row, and with a predetermined column of TS-modules in the matrix for output of data from the TS-modules of that column. In this way, it is possible to implement the switch structure into a number of subracks with a reasonable number of interconnections between different subracks, thus obtaining a truly modular TS-switch structure.

Title: Underarm cosmetic compositions with lower alkyl acetate
Inventor: JONES FRANCIS
IPC: A61K8/31
Filed: 1999-01-20
Granted: 2008-04-15
Abstract: An underarm composition is provided which includes C1-C6 alkyl acetate, an underarm active selected from astringent salts and anti-microbial agents, and a carrier. The carrier may include propellant, silicone, ester and liquid paraffin. Methyl and t-butyl acetates are preferred.

Patent CA-2329135-C (CA)
Inventor: HEDGPETH JOEL
IPC: C12Q1/6813
Filed: 1999-04-05
Granted: 2014-05-27
Abstract: Conjugates between a minor groove binding molecule, such as the trimer of 1,2-dihydro-(3H)-pyrrolo[3,2-e]indole-7-carboxylate (CDPI3), and an oligonucleotide form unusually stable hybrids with complementary target sequences, in which the tethered CDPI3 group resides in the minor groove of the duplex. These conjugates can be used as probes and primers. Due to their unusually high binding affinity, conjugates as short as 8-mers can be used as amplification primers with high specificity and efficiency. MGB conjugation also increases the discriminatory power of short oligonucleotides, providing enhanced detection of nucleotide sequence mismatches by short oligonucleotides. The MGB-conjugated probes and primers described herein facilitate various analytic and diagnostic procedures, such as amplification reactions, PCR, detection of single-nucleotide polymorphisms, gene hunting, differential display, fluorescence energy transfer, hydrolyzable probe assays and others; by allowing the use of shorter oligonucleotides, which have higher specificity and better discriminatory power.
