Abstract:
A portable container for use in a sink is described. The sink has predetermined inner dimensions and a sink drain. The sink drain has an inlet with predetermined inner dimensions. The container comprises a bottom, sides, and a top opening. The bottom has a drain. The container bottom is formed with outer dimensions less than the predetermined inner dimensions of the sink such that the container may substantially fit in the sink. The container drain is formed protruding outwardly from the container bottom with an outlet, and, the outlet has outer dimensions less than the predetermined inner dimensions of the sink drain inlet such that the container drain outlet may substantially fit within the sink drain inlet.
Abstract:
This invention is a new and distinct grapevine variety denominated ‘IFG 68-175’. ‘IFG 68-175’ is characterized by producing large bright red, crisp, uniform berries with high sugar content borne on medium size clusters. The fruit ripen and are commercially harvestable from late August to mid-September. Berries color fully even under adverse conditions and do not darken excessively throughout the harvestable period.
Abstract:
A new and distinct plum tree variety, Prunus salicina, cv. ‘Suplumthirtyeight’ is characterized by ripening very early in the harvest season, about ten days earlier than ‘Red Beaut’ (unpatented). The new variety is further characterized by relatively large-sized fruit for the season, smooth black skin, juicy amber flesh that has a sugar content of approximately 15° brix, and early full bloom compared to ‘Black Beaut’ (unpatented). The winter chilling requirement is estimated to be approximately 300 hours at or below approximately 7.2° C.
Abstract:
A new and distinct plum tree variety, Prunus salicina, cv. ‘Suplumthirtyseven’ characterized by heavy and consistent production of early-season yellow-fleshed purple-black plums that have aromatic sweet flavor, excellent juiciness, and high sugar content (17 degrees brix). The combined traits of the new variety constitute superior quality relative to other commercial plum varieties ripening in ‘Black Beaut’ (unpatented) ripening season in the San Joaquin Valley, Calif.
Abstract:
A new and distinct grapevine variety characterized by producing red skinned, aromatic flavored, elliptical berries that have an excellent eating quality. The berries ripen early to mid-season, having a naturally medium size, a crisp flesh texture, and have medium and up sugar content.
Abstract:
A new and distinct grapevine variety characterized by possessing elliptic shaped, medium sized green-yellowish seedless grapes having a crisp flesh texture. The grapes have a mild neutral flavor, medium sugar content, and excellent eating quality. The new variety possesses exceptional late-ripening characteristics. Additionally, the bunches have the ability to stay on the vine for a month or more, while maintaining commercial harvest quality.
Abstract:
A new and distinct plum variety that possesses heavy and consistent production of large (about 65 mm) fruit in late July and early August in Kern County, California. The fruit skin has a smooth yellow finish with mildly-tart flavor, while the flesh color is yellow, with crisp, juicy texture. The flavor is sweet with high sugar levels (about 18° brix), and balancing acidity.
Abstract:
An SOI integrated circuit includes ESD protection on an SOI chip. A first power domain and a second power domain are provided in the SOI chip. In one embodiment , a charge modulation network in the SOI chip between the first power domain and the second power domain mitigates accumulation of electrical charge in an electrically isolated region of the SOI chip. In another embodiment, an ESD protection device in the SOI chip electrically connects the first power domain and the second power domain via a low metal layer to provide a discharge path for accumulated charge.
Abstract:
This invention is a new and distinct grapevine variety denominated ‘IFG Thirty-nine’. The new grapevine is characterized by producing medium size narrow finger shaped yellow-green berries having medium firm texture with a muscat flavor and which ripen in mid-season. Berries are borne on medium size clusters which are naturally loose and do not require gibberellin applications to thin clusters.
Abstract:
This invention is a new and distinct sweet cherry tree denominated ‘IFG Cher-nine’. The new sweet cherry tree is characterized by producing early ripening medium size dark red fruits having a reniform shape. Fruits ripen early and are very firm, with medium acid fruit with a good cherry flavor. Fruits are tolerant of rain induced cracking. The tree has a low chilling requirement of about 300 to 400 hours. It produces few doubled and spurred fruits.
