Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide a method of using Schwartz Reagent, Cp2Zr(H)Cl, without accumulating or isolating it. Methods provide mixtures of Cp2ZrCl2, reductants that selectively reduce Cp2ZrCl2, and substrates. After reaction of Cp2ZrCl2 and the reductant, an intermediate reduction product is formed, apparently Schwartz Reagent. The in situ Schwartz Reagent then selectively reduces certain functional groups on the substrate. Substrates include tertiary amides, tertiary benzamides, aryl O-carbamates, and heteroaryl N-carbamates, which are reduced to aldehydes, benzaldehydes, aromatic alcohols, and heteroaromatics, respectively. Compared to prior methods, reagents are inexpensive and stable, reaction times are short, and reaction temperature in certain cases is conveniently room temperature. It has been estimated that using the in situ method described herein instead of synthesized or commercially obtained Schwartz Reagent provides a 50% reduction in cost.

Title: System and method for multi-radio control
Inventor: LANKSWERT PATRICK C
IPC: H04B1/18
Filed: 2007-05-23
Abstract: A system and method for multi-radio control unifies disparate radio technologies and communication protocols and abstracts them such that a user of a personal electronic device having a plurality of disparate radios is not required to know or understand the radio technology needed to connect to a remote wireless device or service. An intermediate layer receives requests from a user interface application, generates specific driver commands to each radio, and returns information received from each radio to the user interface application module. A user interface application module initiates a search for available remote wireless devices, provides the user with information regarding the available remote wireless devices, and establishes a connection to an available remote wireless device in response to a user selection. The user interface application module also presents notifications to the user, and also handles disconnect requests and security credential dialogs.

Inventor: DAVIS JAMES E P
IPC: A61H23/02
Filed: 2007-07-10
Abstract: The invention is a percussor comprising an anvil, a hammer, a coil, and a pulse generator. The anvil is equipped with a force-receiving surface and a force-delivering surface which are rigidly connected together, the force-delivering surface being intended for contact with a patient's body. The hammer is also equipped with a force-receiving surface and a force-delivering surface, the hammer being attached to the anvil in such a way that the hammer's force-delivering surface and the anvil's force-receiving surface are mechanically free to come together or move apart. The coil forces the hammer's force-delivering surface and the the anvil's force-receiving surface to separate when the coil is energized with an electrical current. The pulse generator supplies repeated electrical current pulses to the coil which causes repeated impulse forces to be applied to a patient's body whenever the technician applies a continuing force to the hammer's force-receiving surface.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for producing a profile from composite fiber material, in particular in the aviation and aerospace field, having the following steps: A  preliminary fabric (3), particularly made of pre-impregnated fiber material, are first packed in a vacuum bag (7). Then support elements (17, 18) are laid on the packed preliminary fabric (3) to support the latter. The vacuum bag (7) is then supplied with a vacuum (PI).  Next, the preliminary fabric (3) is hardened to the profile under the action of heat, in particularly in an autoclave. With the claimed method the support elements (17,18) can be formed advantageously from favorable material, in particular aluminum, instead of highly expensive nickel-36 steel, since the support elements (17, 18) are uncoupled mechanically from the preliminary fabric (3) in a longitudinal direction (8) by means of the vacuum bag (7), enabling movement of the support elements (17, 18) in the longitudinal direction (8) relative to the preliminary fabric (3).

Abstract: The present invention comprises methods and compositions related to the production and use of amino acid se-quences.  In particular, PCV2 ORF2 is shown to be useful as a virus-like particle which produces amino acid sequences that retain their immunogenicity or antigenicity when the DNA encoding the PCV2 ORF2 is inserted into an expression system. DNA se-quences that are foreign to PCV2 can be attached 'in- frame' to the ORF2 DNA and the entire sequence, including the DNA foreign to PCV2, is expressed. It was shown that such sequences retain their antigenicity and therefore their potential utility in immuno-genic compositions.

Abstract: Une lentille intra-oculaire pour corriger ou réduire lastigmatisme dune cornée inclut une pupille qui est divisée spatialement en zones discrètes, chaque zone ayant une grandeur dastigmatisme particulière et une orientation dastigmatisme particulière. Dans un mode de réalisation, les zones ont toutes la même grandeur dastigmatisme, qui est égale et opposée à la grandeur dastigmatisme de la cornée à une tolérance particulière près, telle que 0,25 dioptrie.

La performance visuelle dune telle lentille se détériore plus lentement avec un désalignement en rotation, en comparaison à une lentille comparable ayant une orientation dastigmatisme uniforme à travers sa pupille entière, conduisant à des tolérances plus larges pour un chirurgien qui implante la lentille.

Preferably the abrading and cutting head has a center of mass spaced radially from the rotational axis of the drive shaft, facilitating the ability of the device to travel along an orbital path. The abrading and cutting head comprises proximal and/or distal radiused surfaces that facilitate cutting difficult stenosis material while minimizing trauma to the vessel.

Abstract: Techniques for transmitting null pilots to support interference estimation in a wireless network are described. A  null pilot is non-transmission on designated time-frequency resources by a cell or a cluster of cells supporting cooperative transmission to a UE. The received power of the null pilot from the cell or cluster of cells may be indicative of interference from other cells. In one design, a cell in the cluster may determine resources for sending a null pilot by the cell. The cell may transmit the null pilot (i.e., send no transmissions) on the resources to allow UEs to estimate out-of-cluster interference. Some or all cells in the cluster may transmit null pilots on the same resources. The cell may receive interference and channel information from the UE and may send data transmission to the UE based on the interference and/or channel information. Remaining cells in the cluster may reduce interference to the UE.
