Abstract: A method of removing water (7) from a fuel tank (2) using a water scavenging line (4) which has an inlet (6) immersed in the water and an outlet (5) coupled to a water tank (3). The method comprises filling the fuel tank with fuel (30) whereby the fuel exerts hydrostatic pressure on the water, the hydrostatic pressure driving the water up the water scavengingline against the force of gravity and into the water tank. The use of hydrostatic pressure provides an automatic and relatively simple method of extracting the water from the bottom of the fuel tank. The water tank enables the extracted water to be stored for disposal at a later time, typically by feeding the water into an engine.

Abstract: Antibody molecules, in particular fully human antibodies that bind to human IGF-1 and cross-react with IGF-2 such that binding of IGF-1 and IGF-2 to the IGF-1 receptor is prevented and IGF-1 receptor-mediated signaling is inhibited. The antibodies do not bind to insulin and thus do not affect the mitogenic properties of insulin that are mediated by its binding to the insulin receptors. The antibodies are useful for the treatment of hyperproliferative diseases, in particular cancer.

Abstract: A mobile receiver having a multi-mode interference suppression function and a way to estimate its speed utilizes a parametric approach to interference suppression at high speeds, and a nonparametric approach at low speeds. In particular, if the mobile receiver is currently operating in a nonparametric mode and its speed exceeds a first predetermined threshold, the mobile receiver switches to a parametric mode. Conversely, if the mobile receiver is currently in parametric mode and its speed is less than a second predetermined threshold, the mobile receiver switches to nonparametric mode. In one embodiment, the speed may be estimated by a Doppler frequency in the received signal, and the thresholds are Doppler frequencies. In one embodiment, the first and second thresholds are different, creating a hysteresis in the mode switching.

Abstract: The lathe tool, in particular the boring tool (2) has a receiving part implemented as a borer body (6) and a front part implemented as a borer head (4), which extend along a central axis (8) and can be removably fastened to one another via a driver connection.  The driver connection comprises at least two coupling pairs which are separate from one another and are disposed eccentrically relative to the central axis (8). Each coupling pair is formed by interlocking coupling elements, namely a receiving pocket (20) and a driver pin (18). The coupling elements are implemented such that upon joining of the borer head (4) and the borer body (6), they are centered to one another and oriented aligned via the coupling elements. The coupling elements (18, 20) have an asymmetrical cross-sectional area for this purpose and widen with increasing distance to the central axis (8) for good torque transmission. Through said design, a reliable transmission of even high torques is achieved in comparison to the solution known from the prior art with lower strains of the borer body (6) in the area of the driver connection. Simultaneously, an automatic centering of the two tool parts to one another is performed by the special design.
