Title: A contact sex pheromone component of the emerald ash borer agrilus planipennis fairmaire (coleoptera: buprestidae)
Inventor: SILK PETER
IPC: A01N27/00
Filed: 2009-11-23
Abstract: The invention disclosed relates to the detection of the Emerald Ash Borer (EAB), Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire (Coleoptra: B-prestidae) and in particular to the use of contact sex phenomones therefor. Analyses of the elytral hydrocarbons from male and female emerald ash borer, that were freshly emerged vs. sexually mature ( > 10 days old) revealed a female-specific compound, 9-methyl-pentacosane (9-Me-C25), only present in sexually mature females. This material was synthesized by the Wittig reaction of 2-decanone with (n-hexadecyl)-triphenylphosphonium bromide followed by catalytic reduction to yield racemic 9-Me C25, which matched the natural compound by GC/MS (retention time and EI-mass spectrum). In field bioassays with freeze-killed sexually mature A. planipennis females, feral males spent significantly more time in contact and attempting copulation with unwashed females than with females that had been washed in n-hexane to remove the cuticular hydrocarbons.    Hexane-washed females to which 9-Me-C25 had been reapplied elicited similar contact time and percentage of time attempting copulation as unwashed females, indicating that 9-methyl-pentacosane is a contact sex-pheromone component of A.  planipennis. This is the first contact sex pheromone identified in the Buprestidae.

Patent CA-2701434-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KARAGOUNIS MOSHOS
IPC: B64D1/16
Filed: 2008-10-16
Abstract: The rainstorm method refers to the Fire fighting with helicopters which, instead of using the suspended bucket for transporting water, will utilize a prototype cylindrical reservoir (Dwg. C2), at the rear side of which a Hydraulic Mechanism will be fitted, which will transform the water content into artificial rain. With this Method the capabilities ol helicopters as well as the fire fighting capacity of the transported water will be maximized. Furthermore, firefighting can be earned out even in inhabited areas where land forces are present and where there arc trapped vehicles, people, animals, and in general where there is no risk of damage and loss of life by creating an artificial rain phenomenon of controlled intensity and duration. The three point triangular suspension ot the reservoir guarantees its stability in all three stages of the fire fighting procedure by means of a single simple control, which swivels the rear side up and down, i.e. water replenishment (Dwg. Cl), water transportation to the scene of fire (Dwg. C2), and finally firefighting by creating a rain shower (Dwg. C3). The rain mechanism is set into automatic operation in the vertical position of the reservoir, at which point the water turbine rotates the hollow propeller. The water then dashes out the reservoir after being centrifuged through the nozzles, creating an umbrella of rain with all the required characteristics.

Title: System for creating an air-to-ground ip tunnel in an airborne wireless cellular network to differentiate individual passengers
Inventor: LAUER BRYAN A
IPC: H04B7/185
Filed: 2009-03-05
Abstract: The Aircraft Air-To-Ground IP Tunnel System provides wireless communication services to passengers located onboard an aircraft by storing data indicative of the individually identified passenger wireless devices located onboard the aircraft. The Aircraft Air-To-Ground IP Tunnel System assigns a single IP address to each Point-to-Point Protocol link connecting the aircraft network to the ground-based communication network and creates an IP subnet onboard the aircraft. The IP subnet utilizes a plurality of IP addresses for each Point-to-Point link, enabling each passenger wireless device to be uniquely identified with their own IP address. This is enabled since both Point-to-Point Protocol IPCP endpoints have pre-defined IP address pools and/or topology configured, so each Point-to-Point Protocol endpoint can utilize a greater number of IP addresses than one per link. Such an approach does not change IPCP or other EVDO protocols/messaging but allows this address to be directly visible to the ground-based communication network.
