Abstract: In a film unit, a charge operation member is held on a fron side of
a guide member to be slidable between an ON position to turn on a flash
charge switch of a built-in flash device and an OFF position to turn off the flash
charge switch. The guide member is mounted stationarily to a front side of a
flash circuit board of the flash device. Joints between front and rear cover of
the film unit are set away from those circuit portions of the flash device where
high voltage current flows. The flash charge switch is constituted of a metal
contact blade and contact chips provided on the flash circuit board. The metal
contact blade is bent roundly at a base portion of a pair of resilient arms. The
charge operation member keeps on pressing the arms onto the contact chips
in the ON position. The flash device charges a main capacitor while the flash
charge switch is on, and automatically stops charging when the charge voltage
goes above a predetermined voltage. A light emitting diode indicates the
completion of charging.

Abstract: A method of and system for secure content delivery. The method is
carried out by a content delivery network service provider (CDNSP), which
operates a secure CDN. The secure CDN may be a dedicated network or a
subset of a larger distributed network that is managed by the service provider.
A Web site obtains secure content delivery, preferably as a managed service, by
aliasing the site (or given domains) to the CDN. Edge servers are selectively
authenticated into the secure CDN before they can be used to deliver secure
content, and the CDN service provider serves SSL pages over a secure
connection on the site's behalf, preferably using an SSL certificate provided by
the site. A copy of the customer's SSL certificate resides on the secure edge
servers to allow them to serve SSL content on the customer's behalf. A key
agent running on the edge server, however, ensures that the copy of the
certificate only resides in memory and not on disk. Further, a server that
cannot be fully monitored by the CDN service provider removes the certificate
from its memory and no longer serves the SSL traffic.

Abstract: A controller for controlling a voltage applied to a load from a power source includes a square wave producing circuit for connection in the circuit with the battery and the lamp. The square wave producing circuit produces a variable duty cycle square wave for controlling application of power to the load in accordance with the duty cycle of the square wave. The square wave producing circuit has a control input for varying the duty cycle of the square wave in response to a voltage at the control input. A voltage varying circuit is connected to the power source for producing a selectively variable voltage that is fed to the control input of the square wave producing circuit for selectively adjusting the duty cycle of the square wave. A low voltage detection circuit is connected to the power source and coupled to the control input of the square wave producing circuit for automatically producing a voltage that decreases the duty cycle of the square wave when the battery voltage decreases to or below a selected level. The selected level may be set according to a value of at least one impedance within the low voltage detection circuit.

Abstract: The present invention provides for a method of simultaneously treating both cancer and the Multidrug Resistance Phenotype via inhibition of cellular thiols, such as Glutathione S-Transferase (GST). This enzyme is overproduced in leukemia and solid tumor cells and is one of the main pathways involved in the Multidrug Resistance phenotype. The treatment provides for the administration of a chemically inert pro-drug, designed to be a specific substrate for the GST enzyme that, once cleaved, liberates the bioactive toxin Nitric Oxide (NO) intracellularly at the site of a malignant growth. NO then acts to inhibit the growth of the malignant cells and to induce cellular differentiation and apoptosis therein, effectively treating an existing cancerous condition. Additionally, once NO is liberated from the pro-drug, the remaining structure acts to inhibit further GST activity, providing a treatment for the Multidrug Resistant phenotype.

Abstract: The present invention relates to encapsulated lactic acid, where lactic acid is in a solid, pure, crystalline form. The encapsulation of food acids is common practice. Many companies produce encapsulated citric, tartaric and sorbic acids or GDL. However, lactic acid, a major food acid for its flavour and conservation effect, is not available in a pure solid crystalline encapsulated form. As no substrate is needed for said coated solid lactic acid particles, the lactic acid content of said particles may be very high and the activity of the lactic acid is not impaired by the substrate. Furthermore, the encapsulated solid lactic acid particles according to the invention are easy to handle and are less expensive than encapsulated liquid lactic acid.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for estimating and correcting distortions in radio signals, arising as a result of transmitter or receiver-side IQ asymmetries and channel distortion, which can be transmitted in a multi-carrier transmission method in the form of frames or bursts.  A known multi-carrier transmission method is, for example, the OFMD method.  The distortions arise as a result of transmitter and receiver-side IQ asymmetries.  Linear distortions in the observed sub-carrier occur as a result of multi-path extension of the radio channel. The method is based on the idea that either the transmitter or receiver-side IQ asymmetry is already known.  If one of the IQ distortion matrices is already known, the coefficients of the respective other IQ distortion matrix and the channel coefficients are iteratively estimated and the received symbols are equalised and decided upon. Block-by block processing of the received multi-carrier data symbol then occurs.
