Abstract:
Portable holders for supporting lottery tickets and the scratching off of coatings therefrom. In some embodiments, the holders may include substantially planar surfaces having top edges, bottom edges, left side edges, and right side edges, the top edges being opposite to the bottom edges, and the left side edges being parallel and opposite to the right side edges; at least one slot and/or notch disposed along the surfaces and configured to hold lottery tickets on the surfaces; and trays attached to the bottom edges of the surfaces and configured to collect particulates there within.

Abstract:
Compound (I), and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, are inducers of human interferon. Certain discrete and particular dosages of Compound (I) may be particularly useful in the treatment of various disorders, for example the treatment of allergic diseases and other inflammatory conditions, for example allergic rhinitis and allergic asthma.

Abstract:
Some embodiments comprise a mechanical thickness regulator for a compression mold, or related systems and/or methods. A regulator can include a thickness regulator pin received by a recess in an extendable and retractable relation. The regulator pin can include a tip, or can be contacted with a tip, defining a predetermined distance from the pin to the end of the tip, the distance defining a gap of well known dimensions for receiving and molding polymer melt.
Abstract:
A bed extender assembly for a vehicle bed includes at least one bed extender device having a longitudinal length greater than a length of the vehicle bed. The at least one bed extender device has a first end disposed in the vehicle bed and a second end spaced apart from the first end to define the longitudinal length. The second end is spaced rearwardly apart from a rearward end of the vehicle bed. A locking bar extends transversely across the vehicle bed adjacent the first end to lock the first end of the at least one bed extender device against the bed floor.
Abstract:
A system for providing an insurance product for at least one insured customer, including a communication device for receiving at least one application, each application associated with an applicant and including information about the applicant, a processor configured to determine for each application if the applicant qualifies as an insured customer, and a memory configured for storing an account record associated with each insured customer having at least one insured event associated with that insured customer, a benefit amount payable in association with the at least one insured event, an insurance cost, and a cash value based on predetermined account record factors, wherein the processor may define a reserve fund, determine an investment performance associated with the reserve fund during at least one period of time, and calculate a performance credit amount based on the investment performance of the reserve fund and the cash value.
Abstract:
A collision avoidance system for a machine is disclosed. The collision avoidance system has a first obstacle detection system. The first obstacle detection system is configured to detect a first obstacle and generate a corresponding first signal. Additionally, the collision avoidance system has an operator interface. The operator interface has a display configured to communicate visual information to an operator. In addition, the collision avoidance system has an interface module configured to detect a status of the machine and generate a corresponding second signal. The collision avoidance system also has a controller. The controller is in communication with the first obstacle detection system, the operator interface, and the interface module. The controller is configured to control the display to indicate a dangerous obstacle detection to the operator, based on the first and second signals. Additionally, the controller is configured to control the display to provide a dangerous obstacle warning to the operator, based on the first and second signals.
Abstract:
Methods and compositions of spray drying cellular material are provided that allow preservation of the cellular material. In one aspect, the cellular material is spray dried with a quantity of excipient. In another aspect, the cellular material is spray dried using a cryoprotectant.
