Abstract:
A collapsible table is concealed and stored in the hollow chamber of an upholstered seat arm. The table is pivotally connected to the seat arm by a two-segment spar which supports the table in the extended position and is collapsible for returning the table to the stored position in the arm chamber. A handle is easily manipulable by a seat occupant for collapsing the spar and returning the table to its storage position. The outer upholstered panel of the arm carries the male member of a latch for pivotal movement of the panel to permit access to the chamber and extension of the table. The table carries a cup holder which is pivotal between concealed and extended positions and which is automatically returned to its concealed position by engagement with the front post of the arm when the table is returned to its storage position.
Abstract:
An electronic sign includes a planar lighting module emitting visible light. A cabinet supportingly engages the lighting module. An air chamber is between the cabinet and the lighting module. A vertical partition is within the air chamber and extends between a bottom wall and a top wall of the cabinet, and between the lighting module and a rear wall of the cabinet. The partition divides the air chamber into first and second sections. An electric fan is within the cabinet and transfers air from the first to the second section. The cabinet and/or the lighting module include a plurality of throughholes fluidly interconnecting the air chamber to ambient air. A first subset of the throughholes are more closely fluidly connected to the first section than to the second section. A second subset of the throughholes are more closely fluidly connected to the second section than to the first section.

Abstract:
Refreshment holders having a multiple element, segmented support pole that can be configured to hold accessories such as an inverted-plunger shaped beverage holder, trays, ice chests, buckets, and support stands. The refreshment holders holds beverages in an insulated beverage holder, small items such as nuts, dip, and chips, and ice.
Abstract:
Methods and systems for planarization of a die-to-wafer integration. A planarization coating may be applied to the die-to-wafer assembly, and a planarization plate may be used in the planarization process. The planarization plate may include perforations configured to allow a portion of the planarization coating to extrude through the planarization plate.

Abstract:
The present invention concerns implantable ocular devices for the sustained release of medication to the eye, and methods for manufacturing and using such devices. In one embodiment, the present invention provides a device comprising: (a) a body comprising a matrix of a prostaglandin and a silicone; (b) a parylene coating on the outer surface of the body; and (c) one or more pores extending from the outer surface of the parylene coating to the outer surface of the body.
Abstract:
Methods and systems are provided to control the execution of a virtual machine (VM). A VM Monitor (VMM) accesses VM Control Structures (VMCS) indirectly through access instructions passed to a processor. In one embodiment, the access instructions include VMCS component identifiers used by the processor to determine the appropriate storage location for the VMCS components. The processor identifies the appropriate storage location for the VMCS component within the processor storage or within memory.
Abstract:
The present invention provides immunogenic and pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment and prevention of human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated cancers and in particular, cervical cancer. In particular, this invention relates to fusion proteins, and the nucleic acids encoding these fusion proteins, used to generate immune responses against HPV. Specifically, this invention provides for fusions of HPV E6 and E7 in which the E6 and/or E7 contains one or more mutations. These mutations abrogate the transformation activity of these oncogenic proteins and, thus, confer safety to the E6/E7 fusions. In addition, these fusions maintain or increase the immunogenic efficacy of E6 and E7. Any gene or protein delivery method can be used to deliver or package the immunogenic compositions of the present invention.
