Abstract: A method of effecting payment with a cash card that includes an electronic purse, such as a smart card that includes a chip and with which money can be deposited in said chip. When used for payment the card is read in a pay terminal, such as a cashpoint teller or automatic teller, and the payment sum is subtracted from the amount stored in the chip. The card includes data relating to a cash card number to which the card is tied. When the card is read in the cash card reader of a pay terminal the cash card number is read and is registered to enable a cash card transaction to be carried out, and the amount available on the chip is also read and registered. The pay terminal subtracts the amount concerned from the chip only when the chip contains an amount sufficient to cover the whole of the sum concerned and remains in the cash card reader for a period of time sufficient for the transaction to be carried out. The pay terminal then erases cash card number that was registered. The pay terminal is caused to carry out a conventional cash card transaction when the chip does not contain sufficient funds to cover the whole of the amount concerned, or if it is not left in the cash card reader for a sufficient length of time.

Abstract: This invention relates to substituted benzanilides which are modulators, agonists or antagonists, of the CCR5 receptor. In addition, this invention relates to the treatment and prevention of disease states mediated by CCR5, including, but not limited to, asthma and atopic disorders (for example, atopic dermatitis and allergies), rheumatoid arthritis, sarcoidosis and other fibrotic diseases, atherosclerosis, psoriasis, autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis, and inflammatory bowel disease, all in mammals, by the use of substituted benzanilides which are CCR5 receptor antagonists. Furthermore, since CD8+ T cells have been implicated in COPD, CCR5 may play a role in their recruitment and therefore antagonists to CCR5 could provide potential therapeutic in the treatment of COPD. Also, since CCR5 is a co-receptor for the entry of HIV into cells, selective receptor modulators may be useful in the treatment of HIV infection.

Title: Charging metal solids into molten metal.
Inventor: BROWN WARWICK NICHOLSON
IPC: C22B9/16
Filed: 1996-11-14
Abstract: A furnace (1) has a main holding (2) and a charging well (4) into which molten metal from the holding portion is circulated by means of an electromagnetic pump (7). Metal enters the well as a tangential flow and a stationary turbulator (10) is located in the path of the flow so as to upwardly and transversely deflect the flow. Resulting turbulence within the well enhances the rate of assimilation of solids into the melt without resulting in excessive oxidation. The method is suitable for melting aluminium swarf.
