Abstract: An amino acid-sugar composition comprising an amino acid composition which comprises proline, alanine, glycine, valine, threonine, leucine, histidine, lysine, isoleucine, arginine, phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan; and sugar of trehalose. The amino acid-sugar composition has effects of compensating the reduction of the blood level of amino acids associated with severe exercise, of improving the exercise, of reducing the degree of fatigue after exercise and of recovering from fatigue. In addition, the administration of the composition permits the inhibition of the consumption of amino acids associated with exercise and any induction of fatigue accompanied by exercise.

Granted: 2007-11-27
Abstract: A bird feeder having a base and an outer wall extending upwardly therefrom with an access opening is said wall, a shroud extending about the feed container, the shroud also having a shroud access opening which is normally substantially in alignment with the feed container access opening to thereby permit access to the feed container by birds, a hanger connected to the feed container, an extendable means within the feed container interconnecting the shroud and feed container such that when a pre-determined weight is placed on the shroud, the extendable means will extend and cause the shroud access opening to move out of alignment with the feed container access opening to thereby deny access to the feed container. The extension on the extendable means is preferably tension adjustable such that an undesired species or marauder can be excluded from gaining access to the feed container. There is also disclosed a baffle which extends inwardly of the access opening to prevent the seed falling outwardly, the baffle being formed integrally with the side wall by material removed from the side wall to form the access opening.

Abstract: An automobile front pillar (1; 40; 50) includes, at a portion thereof positioned closely to a passenger compartment (16) of an automobile (10), a weak portion (27b; 47b; 62) for initiating the buckling o f the front pillar upon application of a shock to that pan of the front pillar positioned remotely from the compartment. When an obstacle collides with the front pillar portion positioned remotely from the compartment, the weak portion collapses by the resulting collision shock to cause the front pillar to buckle. The collision shock is partly absorbed by the buckling front pillar, whereby the shock applied to the obstacle is significantly damped.

Granted: 2003-06-03
Abstract: A power seeding rate adjustment mechanism for a seeding implement has a threaded lead screw that is rotated by an electric motor. A nut threaded onto the lead screw is fixed to the shifter lever such that when the lead screw is rotated, the nut translates along the length of the lead screw to pivot a shifter lever. The shifter lever is in turn coupled to a seed meter drive shaft to move the shaft transversely, thereby moving fluted feed wheels in or out of the seed cups. A switch carried by the operator in the pulling tractor actuates the motor. The adjustment mechanism enables the operator to make adjustments on-the-go without stopping or leaving the tractor. The motor can be disengaged from the lead screw and the screw turned by a hand crank for manual adjustment in the event of a power failure to the motor.

Title: Semi transparent tributary for synchronous transmission
Inventor: GOODMAN DAVID M
IPC: H04L29/10
Filed: 2000-10-06
Granted: 2010-05-11
Abstract: An interface for converting a variety of incoming digital signals into SDH/SONET format for transmission on a synchronous digital network, by identifying the line code of the incoming digital signal, without identifying the information for OSI layer 2 or 3 processing, i.e. format of each packet. Headers are used to encapsulate incoming packets, and enable packets to be discriminated at the receiver. Advantages of performance monitoring capability and transparency are combined. Identifying line codes enables a greater degree of error detection, than a bit based interface. Also synchronisation can be simpler since line codes for padding can be added or deleted more easily than adding or subtracting bits. The interface is semi--transparent in the sense that identification of line codes limits the interface to those formats that use identifiable line codes, but without limiting to a particular OSI layer 2 or 3 frame format.

Abstract: L'invention introduit un mécanisme permettant de surmonter les limitations des méthodes existantes pour analyser de grandes quantités de données. L'utilisateur final choisit les différents types d'expression de filtre et tous les paramètres requis utilisés pour condenser les données, ce qui permet une sélection interactive des plus intéressantes ainsi que la possibilité de faire varier les paramètres pour les expressions de filtre qui en ont besoin. Ces expressions de filtre sélectionnées sont utilisées pour produire des vues filtrées des données dans les tableaux croisés, de sorte que l'utilisateur final peut mieux comprenne les attributs importants des données en ayant des données moins importantes qui sont soit omises, soit agrégées en groupes arbitraires. Parce que toutes les expressions de filtre autorisées sont pré-calculées, il y a des améliorations importantes en matière de convivialité et d'efficacité. En outre, puisque le calcul préalable de ces fonctions assez complexes est effectué en même temps, il est possible de réaliser des économies importantes dans les ressources de traitement.
