Title: Seed mat
Inventor: WERTH FRED
IPC: A01G7/00
Filed: 2005-09-29
Abstract: Dried compositions in the form of sheets or rolled sheets which contain viable seeds for application to land surfaces for generation of vegetation on the land surface. The dried composition provides the benefits of use of hydromulch techniques in landscaping and revegetation applications, but does not require the on-site use of hydromulch spraying equipment and avoids excess labor requirements for after-spray clean-up. The dried compositions are mulch compositions containing viable seed and, preferably containing fertilizer, which are formed into sheets which may contain one or more layers or coated layers. Exemplary mulch layers are formed from a mixture of paper and clay which may be provided as magazine stock. The fibrous material can be dried plant material such as hay, straw, dried grass or wood fiber. The seed mat may be formed by adding the fibrous material to a hydromulch containing viable seeds and forming a layer by one or more spraying applications which is dried to form sheet. The seed mat may also be formed by one or more spray applications of a hydromulch containing viable seed onto a layer of fibrous material which is then dried to form a sheet. Seed mats may also be formed by application of a mulch slurry to a fibrous material followed by drying.

Title: Method of treating human preeclampsia employing resibufagenin
Inventor: PUSCHETT JULES B
IPC: A61K31/385
Filed: 2005-09-23
Abstract: A method of treating preeclampsia including administering a therapeutically effective dose of resibufagenin to a patient having preeclampsia. Effecting the determination of the presence of preeclampsia may be by determining whether there has been a substantial elevation in marinobufagenin which may be blood-derived or urine-derived and if such elevation does exist, concluding that preeclampsia does exist. The method may advantageously be practiced by employing urine, blood serum or blood plasma as the body specimen containing the protein in determining whether a patient has preeclampsia. In another embodiment, bufodienolide derivatives other than resibufagenin may be employed in lieu of thereof or in combination therewith. In another embodiment, resibufagenin analogues may be employed in the treatment of preeclampsia.

Title: Mobile services control platform providing a message forwarding service
Inventor: KALAVADE ASAWAREE
IPC: H04W4/12
Filed: 2005-08-26
Abstract: A mobile services control platform supports enhanced services for SMS or MMS  message forwarding. The service allows a subscriber to receive SMS (Short Message Service) directed to his or her mobile number across a range of devices, depending on the context, the device, and the network the user is connected from. In a representative example, when the user connects over a Wi-Fi network, e.g., using his or her laptop or other such device, he or she selects "Wi-Fi SMS" option from a client. As a result, future SMS sent to the user's mobile number get routed to his or her laptop over Wi-Fi - without the sender being aware that the user has connected over a different network.  Similarly, SMS messages sent by the user from his or her laptop Wi-Fi client (e.g., through a softphone) are delivered to the recipient's mobile device as if they originated from the mobile phone. When Wi-Fi SMS is activated, preferably voice calls continue to be received over the mobile phone, with only SMS forwarded to Wi-Fi. When the user disables Wi-Fi SMS or disconnects from the Wi-Fi network, SMS messages are routed back over to the mobile phone.

Inventor: BUCKLEY JAMES THOMAS
IPC: A61K35/74
Filed: 2006-06-14
Abstract: The present invention provides a method of treating BPH using modified pore-forming proteins (MPPs). These MPPs are derived from naturally occurring cytotoxic proteins (nPPs) that kill cells by forming pores or channels in the cell membrane, resulting in cell death. The MPPs are generated by modification of the nPPs such that they are capable of being selectively activated at normal prostate cells. Such modification may include the addition of a prostate-specific protease cleavage site to the activation sequence, and/or the addition of a prostate-specific targeting domain to allow selective targeting of prostate cells. These MPPs are capable of selectively targeting and killing normal prostate cells in vivo. The MPPs may be used either alone or in combination with other therapies for the treatment of BPH.
