One method involves the use of stored value account that may be used, for example, to make internet payments, and that can be credited using a variety of payment techniques. Such a method involves receiving money at a money transfer location from a potential purchaser. The money is then stored as an electronic record in a stored value account of the purchaser. This money is then available for transfer at the request of the purchaser. Upon such a request, the money may be electronically sent to a recipient and the stored value account may be debited.

A mug shot acquisition system is disclosed that includes an image acquisition interface that is operative to receive digital mug shot images from an imaging device. An image viewing display is responsive to the image acquisition interface and operative to display the received digital mug shot images. One or more standards-based image adjustment software tools allow the digital mug shot images to be adjusted to meet at least one predetermined mug shot image uniformity standard. The system also includes a software interface responsive to requests to initiate one or more operations by the mug shot acquisition system, and an image export interface operative to export digital mug shot images adjusted based on the standards-based image adjustment software.

The present invention relates to novel MDCK cells which can be to grow viruses, e.g., influenza viruses, in cell culture to higher titer than previously possible. The MDCK cells can be adapted to serum-free culture medium. The present invention further relates to cell culture compositions comprising the MDCK cells and cultivation methods for growing the MDCK cells. The present invention further relates to methods for producing influenza viruses in cell culture using the MDCK cells of the invention.
摘要:
An elevator sheave (20) includes a belt guiding surface (26) having a surface profile along at least a portion of the belt guiding surface. The surface profile preferably is defined by an nth order polynomial equation where n is a number greater than 2. In one example, the reference point (40) is a central point along the width of the belt guiding surface (26). In one example, a central portion (42) of the surface profile preferably is aligned to be generally parallel with the central axis (34) of the sheave body. Some examples have curvilinear side portions (44, 46) between the central portion (42) and the edges (28, 30) of the sheave. Other examples also include second side portions (48, 50) that have linear profiles.
摘要:
A wall mounted apparatus for dispensing wet wipes and toilet tissue, wherein a mounting plate has an outwardly open compartment for positioning a roll of conventional dry paper for dispensing paper outwardly from the mounting plate and at a location below the supply of wet wipes. A wet wipes dispenser has a chamber for storing a stack of wet wipes and an upper wall with an opening for dispensing a wet wipe, the stack supported atop a support tray that is biased upwardly towards the opening with removal of the topmost sheet of the stack simultaneously pulling the next sheet of the stack into position for subsequent withdrawal from the opening. The upper wall is removable to stock and restock the chamber and the opening is covered with a slitted moisture protective sheet. A closure lid is normally biased by a torsion spring into closed sealing relation with the protective sheet.
