Abstract: The present invention relates to the discovery that renewable stem cell lines can be derived from tumor cells and can be cultured in vitro. Accordingly, the invention provides neural tumor stem cell lines and cells from such cell lines. Because the cell lines retain characteristics of the tumors from which they are derived, the cells can be used in screening methods for identification of potential therapeutic agents and can be used to identify genetic markers which may be predictive for development of such tumors. Finally, such cells can be used to determine an appropriate therapeutic regimen for a patient suffering from a brain tumor. Cells from a patient' s brain tumor can be cultured as described herein to create a cell line, and the relative effectiveness of a therapeutic agent against the cells can be tested to determine which agent or combination of agents is most effective in treating the patient's tumor.

Abstract: Float charging a battery comprises charging a battery to a reference voltage that is less than a maximum voltage of the battery. A power source provides power to a charging circuit. The circuit supplies a reference voltage. Au operational amplifier float charges the battery to the reference voltage. A comparator determines whether the battery's voltage exceeds the reference voltage. Another comparator determines whether current through the battery exceeds a reference current. A thermistor determines whether the battery's temperature exceeds a safe range. A microprocessor monitors the inputs from the comparators and the thermistor and outputs of the circuit. If the comparators or the thermistor reports a safety fault to the microprocessor, the microprocessor shuts down the charging current to the battery. If an output circuit draws too much current from the battery, the microprocessor can disconnect the battery from the output circuit.

Title: Estimation of soil properties using waveforms of seismic surface waves
Inventor: KROHN CHRISTINE E
IPC: G01V1/00
Filed: 2009-06-19
Abstract: A method for transforming seismic surface waves into depth profiles of dynamic properties of the soil such as the soil shear modulus or wave velocity or wave attenuation. The invention uses seismic data recorded preferably with a plurality of sources and receivers with a two-stage inversion approach. First, variations in surface-wave waveforms are decomposed (303) into surface-consistent transfer functions preferably for each source, each receiver, and each small region (301) of the surface.  Then the transfer functions for each region are inverted (308) to determine soil properties or near-surface properties (such as the shear modulus) as a function of depth. The method can solve for the complex multi-mode nature of the surface waves for a media with both vertical and lateral changes in properties. Errors and limits in resolution for traditional methods from misidentification of ground roll modes or from assuming laterally uniform soil properties are avoided.
