Abstract: Control signals for an object are developed from the neuron-originating electrical impulses detected by electrode arrays (28) implanted in a subject's cerebral cortex at the pre-motor locations known to have association with arm movements. A co-adaptive algorithm uses the firing rate of the electrode sensed neurons or neuron groupings to help develop the control signals. In a closed-loop environment, where the animal subject (10) can view its results (34), weighting factors in the algorithm are modified over a series of tests to emphasize cortical electrical impulses that result in movement of the object (40) as desired. At the same time, the animal subject (10) learns and modifies its cortical electrical activity to achieve movement of the object (40) as desired. In one specific embodiment, the object moved was a cursor portrayed as a sphere (40) in a virtual reality display (32, 34). In another embodiment, a robot arm (not shown) was controlled by an animal subject (10).

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un système permettant de produire des cellules de la lignée hématopoïétique à partir de cellules souches embryonnaires. La différenciation est effectuée en présence de cytokines hématogènes et d'autres facteurs mentionnés dans le descriptif de l'invention. La population cellulaire obtenue est remarquablement enrichie en cellules contenant CD45, un marqueur d'un précurseur hématopoïétique précoce capable de s'auto-renouveler. L'intégration d'une protéine morphogénétique osseuse lors du processus de différenciation améliore la capacité de la population cellulaire à former des colonies secondaires. En raison de la très grande capacité de réplication des cellules souches embryonnaires, ce système représente une importante nouvelle source commerciale de cellules hématopoïétiques.

Abstract: Subscription-based notification using event channels that each correspond to a
particular scope. Each channel manages notifications through the use of a a schema
definition. The event subscriptions identify the position and attributes that any desired event
notification would take in the the schema definition. The channel then receives event
notifications in the form of XML fragments. The channel then determines the position that
the XML fragment would take as defined by the schema definition. The channel
determines whether the position and attributes of the event notification matches the position
and attributes of the event subscription. If a match is found, then the event notification is
copied and forwarded to the recipient designated in the corresponding subscription.

Abstract: In an exhaust manifold (2) of a four-cylinder engine four cylinders of which line up in order of cylinder (#1), cylinder (#2), cylinder (#3) and cylinder (#4), 
temperature rise performance of a manifold catalyst (3) improves by shortening a total length of the exhaust manifold (2) while preventing exhaust gas interference between the cylinders. Therefore, an exhaust manifold branch of cylinder (#1) and an exhaust manifold branch of cylinder (#4) in outward sides of the engine that are not fired in succession are made convergent with its convergence angle (θ1) being equal to or below 20 degrees to form a first convergent exhaust manifold branch (W1) and an exhaust manifold branch of cylinder (#2) and an exhaust manifold branch of cylinder (#3) between the cylinder (#1) and cylinder (#4) that are not fired in succession are made convergent at a minimum distance having a laterally projected shape to form a second convergent exhaust manifold branch (W2). The first and the second convergent exhaust manifold branches (W1,W2) are thereafter convergent at a convergence angle (θ3) from 0 degrees to 20 degrees.

Abstract: A steering shaft assembly (12) has a tubular main body (14) and
a shaft (16), with a spring (18) and a sleeve (20) disposed at least partially
therebetween. The shaft (16) is disposed at least partially in the tubular main
body (14) and the sleeve (20) is disposed at least partially between the spring
(18) and the main body (14). The sleeve (20) acts to urge the spring (18) into
frictional contact with the shaft (16) to impart an axial resistance force
supporting the shaft (16) against axial displacement in response to application of
an axial force on the shaft (16) less than the axial resistance force. The sleeve
(20) enables axial displacement of the shaft in response to application of an
axial collapsing force exceeding the axial resistance force. In another
construction of a steering shaft assembly (12), a shaft (16) is disposed at least
partially in the tubular main body (14) and the spring (18) is disposed at least
partially in the tubular main body (14) between the tubular main body (14) and
the shaft (16). The spring (18) acts to impart a radial load between the shaft
(16) and the tubular main body (14). The spring (18) has at least one undulation
(78, 80) that provides for linear frictional contact between the spring (18) and
the shaft (16) in a circumferential direction about the shaft (16) to resist
torsional rotation of the shaft (16) relative to the tubular main body (14).

Abstract: A color picture tube apparatus having an inline
electron gun that allows technology for applying a dynamic
voltage to an OLF lens to be implemented, while avoiding
design difficulties. Eave-shaped electrode plates are
attached, parallel with each other in a horizontal scan
direction, to a field-correction electrode plate, which is
a horizontally long, flatten plate in which three holes are
provided, and whose shape is similar to that of an aperture
in a circumferential electrode. This structure allows
quadrupole lenses to be formed as auxiliary lenses having
strong focusing action horizontally and divergent action
vertically, and thus an HV differential can be increased.
As a result, it is possible to reduce the dynamic voltage
without any of the design difficulties accompanying the prior
art, in which eave-shaped electrode plates are not provided.

Abstract: An electric positional actuator (14) that includes a default device (66) for
positioning the actuated device in a default position. The actuator (14) includes
an electric motor (26) that controls the rotational position of a shaft (18) through a
gear system (28, 30, 32, 34). When the shaft (18) rotates, it moves a link-bar (16)
that actuates the actuated device. A rotational sensor (60) coupled to a printed
circuit board (56) detects the position of the shaft (18), and provide a feedback
signal of the shaft's (18) position. The default device (66) includes a spring (72)
wrapped around the shaft (18). When the link bar (16) is rotated away from its
default position, one leg (76) of the spring (72) remains in contact with a housing
spring boss (80) while the other leg (78) of the spring (72) is in contact with the
link bar (16) opposing the movement and trying to return the link-bar (16) to the
default position.
