An electrically illuminated artificial plant display may include a plurality of individual plant sprays, each spray including optical fibers and branch members bearing light emitting diodes, the optical fibers and branch members terminating at a plug that includes a readily replaceable colored lens to filter light which is transmitted to the fiber optic members and electrical contacts for transmitting power to the diodes disposed on the branch members. The plug may be insertable into a base unit that includes a plurality of receptacles, each receptacle adapted to receive a single plug. The receptacles may each include both electrical contacts and a light emitting diode such that the lens in the plug is positioned between the base unit's light emitting diode and the ends of the fiber optic cables when the plug is in an installed position.

An apparatus and method are provided for selecting a portion of a group of people who live in a defined geographic area that are more likely than the average population in that geographic area to perform a particular action. The apparatus includes a database for storing data. Such data includes indicia of: a group of people who live in the defined geographic area; the geographic location of the residence of each person in the group of people; and the propensity for one or more persons in the group of people who live in a particular residence to perform the particular action. The apparatus also includes a display for showing the relative locations of the residences in the geographic area and a visually recognizable indication of the propensity for one or more persons who live in a particular residence to perform the particular action.
摘要:
Methods for production of highly unsaturated fatty acids by marine microorganisms, including the heterotrophic marine dinoflagellate Crypthecodinium, using low levels of chloride ion are disclosed. Specifically, methods of increasing production of highly unsaturated fatty acids by marine microorganisms while growing in low chloride media by manipulating sodium ion and potassium ion levels. The invention also relates to methods of production of highly unsaturated fatty acids by marine organisms at low pH levels, and includes methods for generation of low pH tolerant strains.

A command line utility is described that overlays the management infrastructure of an enterprise to provide easier command options for administrators to effectively manage the enterprise. The primary intent of the command line utility is to facilitate management of the environment without requiring administrators to write scripts or navigate a vast schematized enterprise exposed through the management infrastructure. The command line utility provides command options through class aliases that enable the mapping of management queries and operations to a common term or friendly name that can be extended both in an alias file or at run time in the command line.
摘要:
This invention provides method and devices for receiving and/or delivering liquid to an object, devices for delivering liquid to a plant/seed/growing medium comprising: a conduit comprising: at least two about parallel plates one or more walls substantially sealing the plates and forming a substantially enclosed space, such that the devices are useful in hydroponic gardens. This invention also provides hydroponic gardens with such devices. The parallel plates and the walls can be rigid and hydrophobic.

Provided are a method, system, and article of manufacture for providing an address format compatible with different addressing formats used for addressing different sized address spaces. An address format is used in an operating system to address storage space in a storage device comprising a first region and a second region of storage space. A first group of applications uses the address format to only address the storage space in the first region and is not coded to use the address format to access the second region and a second group of applications uses the address format to address the storage space in the first and second regions.
摘要:
The present invention relates to eucaryotic initiation factor 5A and the use of polynucleotides encoding the same to inhibit cancer cell growth and inhibit metastases. In a preferred embodiment, eIF-5A1 is used to kill multiple myeloma cells.

The invention relates to the use of custom color inks in printing. According to various aspects of the invention, printing apparatus and processes are provided for dispensing a first primary color ink to a custom color chamber associated with a print head, dispensing a second primary color ink to the custom color chamber, mixing the first primary color ink and the second primary color ink to create a custom color, and printing the custom color ink from the custom color chamber with a print head. The invention also relates to using valves to select a printing ink from a number of available ink chambers.
摘要:
Regulation of expression of senescence in plants is achieved by integration of a gene or gene fragment encoding senescence-induced lipase into the plant genome in antisense orientation. The carnation and Arabidopsis genes encoding senescence-induced lipase are identified and the nucleotide sequences are used to modify senescence in transgenic plants.
