Title: Identification of clk-1 and shows that clk-1 gene complements the clk-1 phenotype and restores normal longevity
Inventor: HEKIMI SIEGFRIED
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 1997-10-17
Abstract: A clk-1 gene which has a function at the level of cellular physiology and is involved in developmental rate and longevity, wherein the gene codes for a protein having a sequence as set forth in SEQ ID:15 and 16, wherein reducing the expression of or overexpressing the activity of clk-1 causes an altered cellular metabolism relative to the wild type. Wherein, reduced expression results in an increase of life span and a slowing down of developmental and behavioral rates and overexpression results in an acceleration of developmental and behavioral rates. There is also provided a method for the diagnosis and/or prognosis of cancer in a patient, which comprises the steps of: a) obtaining a tissue sample from the patient; b) analysing DNA of the obtained tissue sample of step a) to determine if the human clk-1 gene is altered, wherein alteration of the human clk-1 gene is indicative of cancer.

Patent NZ-500196-A (NZ)
Title: Entitlement management messages only acceptable if entitlement management message received in previous calendar period
Inventor: MAILLARD MICHEL
IPC: H04N21/8355
Filed: 1998-03-19
Abstract: A receiver/decoder is programmed only to accept a current entitlement control message (EMM) if it has received at least a previous EMM of a previous calendar period. When this is received, it is used to check present rights in the receiver/decoder. This technique prevents an original subscriber from fraudulently obtaining rights by disconnecting a decoder (before an authorising message can update the decoder's memory to prevent decryption) and by reconnecting the decoder (so as to be mistaken for a new subscriber legitimately having those rights).

Title: Controller for free piston linear compressor
Inventor: TIAN ZHUANG
Filed: 2005-07-25
Abstract: A free-piston linear compressor and a control system therefor that prevents the compressor operating in undesirable modes. The control system energises the compressor so that it reciprocates at its natural frequency according to the system operating conditions, and monitors the frequency of reciprocation. If the frequency of reciprocation falls below a floor threshold, the control system ceases to energise the compressor, and if the frequency of reciprocation rises above a ceiling threshold, the control system reduces the power to the compressor. The frequency of reciprocation is detected by monitoring the back EMF induced in the compressor stator windings by the armature and analysing zero crossings in the back EMF signal.

Title: Welded connections
Inventor: TEH LIP
IPC: B23K9/00
Filed: 2004-04-08
Abstract: A method for welding an end of a polygonal hollow section (PHS) to a member comprises the step of forming a weld across a surface of the PHS. The weld extends continuously from a connection weld connecting the PHS and the member to a location remote from the connection weld. The surface of the PHS is typically one or more flanges of the PHS, and the PHS is typically an RHS or SHS, such that the surface can be part of just one flange. A method for increasing the rotation capacity in a welded moment connection between a PHS and a member is also defined. The method comprises the step of forming a weld between the PHS and the member in a manner such that strain in corner(s) of the PHS, located at an end of the PHS that is weld connected to the member, is redistributed to an adjacent flange of the PHS. Alternatively the method may comprise the step of forming a weld between the PHS and the member in a manner that minimises the extent to which a heat effected zone through a flange of the PHS lies in a fracture zone adjacent to an internal end of the weld.
