Abstract: A locking chair adjustment mechanism for adjusting a position of a chair component. The mechanism comprises a central shaft, a spiral jaw clutch comprising two interconnecting spiral jaw interfaces and a slotted element wherein the slot is sized to slideably receive the central shaft for displacement of the slotted element when the mechanism is in an unlocked position. A locking pad locks the mechanism against the slotted element. A rotatable adjustment handle allows the mechanism to toggle from a locked position, to an unlocked position, by displacement of the spring mechanism caused by the rotation of the spiral jaw interface fixedly mounted on the adjustment handle, therefore releasing pressure on the locking pad. A spring mechanism is activated when the claimed mechanism goes from a locked position to an unlocked position, pulling the claimed mechanism back to a locked position. The claimed mechanism provides a low cost solution offering better locking capabilities than traditional braking mechanisms.

Abstract: Methods and compositions which increase the concentration of an inhibitory RNA  specific for a target sequence in a cell are provided. In one embodiment, the methods and compositions employ a first polynucleotide comprising a silencing element for a target pest sequence operably linked to a promoter active in the plant cell; and, a second polynucleotide comprising a suppressor enhancer element comprising the target pest sequence or an active fragment or variant thereof operably linked to a promoter active in the plant cell. The combined expression of the silencing element with the target pest sequence, or an active variant or fragment thereof, leads to the amplification of the inhibitory RNA produced from the silencing element over the achievable with only the expression of the silencing element alone. Thus, the various methods and compositions of the invention provide improved methods for the delivery of inhibitory RNA to a target organism.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for controlling transmission of a base station, such as a Femto cell, based on the determined quality of a backhaul connection to a network are disclosed. In particular, a quality of a backhaul connection of a base station to a node in a communication network is determined. Based on this quality determination, transmission from the base station is either limited or stopped when the determined quality fails to meet a predefined condition. The degradation in quality of the backhaul connection, for example, affects the ability of the base station to offer sufficient service to access terminals.    By limiting or stopping wireless transmission of the base station when the backhaul quality is degraded, access terminals either currently accessing the base station or attempting to connect to the base station can then more efficaciously hand off to another base station or access point.

IPC: H04B7/185
Filed: 2009-04-20
Abstract: Systems and methods for transmitting and receiving additional data, such as video data, over legacy satellite digital audio radio signals are provided. In exemplary embodiments, hierarchical modulation can be used to transmit secondary information over a legacy signal. For example, the Sirius Satellite Digital Audio Radio Service ("SDARS") system may use a second layer of modulation to transmit video data on top of its regular audio signal. In order to support such future services within the original system design, sometimes referred to herein as a "legacy" system, additional information bandwidth can be acquired, for example, by using hierarchical modulation to overlay data for such new services on top of the legacy transmission. In such a system, for example, overlay data can be transmitted by applying a programmable angular offset to legacy QPSK symbols, for forming a new constellation similar to 8PSK.

Abstract: A product assortment planning system determines scaled performance metric values for an assortment of products. The system includes a data store storing performance metric values for an assortment of products including a target assortment of products and a source assortment of products, an equivalization unit and a scaling unit. The equivalization unit equivalizes the performance metric values for the source assortment of products. The scaling unit determines incrementality assumptions. The incrementality assumptions are an estimation of an amount of cannibalization that occurs for the target assortment of products as a result of combining the source assortment of products with the target assortment of products. Scaled performance metric values are calculated for each product in the assortment of products based on the equivalized performance metric values and the incrementality assumptions.

Abstract: A molded modular wastewater treatment system including a tank with molded double thick baffle walls made of UV stabilized 3/8" thick polyethylene. The system is designed with three separately molded and interconnected chambers, a pretreatment chamber connected to a first side of an aeration chamber and a second side of the aeration chamber connected to a clarification chamber. The pretreatment chamber initially receives the wastewater and uses anaerobic bacterial action and gravity to precondition the wastewater and then passes the preconditioned water to an aeration chamber. The aeration chamber receives the pretreated wastewater from the pretreatment chamber and uses aerobic bacteria to biologically convert the waste in the wastewater into stable substances and then pass it to the clarification chamber. The clarification chamber receives the flow from the aeration chamber and settles out any biologically active material in the flow and returns it to the aeration chamber for additional processing.
