摘要:
A hub for interconnecting a plurality struts at a node of geodesic framework features a receiver and a holding mechanism. The receiver has a plurality of receptacles to each receive an end of a respective strut. The holding mechanism is movable between a full-hold position and different partial-hold positions. The full-hold position at least partially obstructs each of the receptacles to block withdrawal of any strut ends already received in the receptacles. Each partial-hold position reveals one of the receptacles to enable insertion or withdrawal of a strut end, while continuing to obstruct all of the other receptacles to prevent inadvertent separation of any previously installed strut. Struts are inserted one-by-one as the holding mechanism is indexed from one partial-hold position to the next, without worry of any preceding strut separating from the hub. A kit with a spacer enables fastening of two hubs together in a multi-layer geodesic framework.

Lead compounds were obtained in a high throughput screen (HTS) of angiogenin (ANG; a potent inducer of angiogenesis) enzyme activity, an RNase. One lead was shown to delay appearance of tumors in an animal tumor system, and to reduce the number of animals having tumors. Several lead compound analogs were found to be even more potent inhibitors of ANG activity compared to the original leads, and two were also found to have greater affinity for ANG than for pancreatic RNase. Other embodiments disclose a method comprising obtaining a ribonuclease inhibitor and a composition; and admixing the ribonuclease inhibitor and the composition to form an admixture, wherein a ribonuclease that may be present in the admixture is inhibited.

A method for payment management includes identifying an invoice for a target financial transaction between a customer and a target vendor, and obtaining financial transaction records for completed financial transactions between the customer and vendors. The vendors include comparable vendors and the target vendor. The method further includes generating, using the financial transaction records, a payment prediction for the customer to pay the target vendor, analyzing a subset of the financial transaction records for the comparable vendors to generate a recommendation, and presenting, in a graphical user interface, the payment prediction and the recommendation.

A mechanism is provided for a failed computer system to send a report of the failure to a remote site without dependency on a service processor or maintenance processor. The computer system is capable of reporting system failure to a remote site independent of whether the system may be successfully rebooted. The system includes a CPU, and, coupled to the CPU, a non-volatile control store, a main memory, a storage device storing a computer operating system, and a data modem. Firmware is resident in the non-volatile control store of the main computer system for reporting system failure to a remote site independent of whether the system may be successfully rebooted by reloading the operating system into main memory. The firmware is invoked upon occurrence of a non-recoverable error and provides for assembling failure-related information, establishing communication with the remote site, and transmitting the failure-related information to the remote site.
摘要:
An inhibitor of angiogenin and method of use of the inhibitor, wherein the inhibitor inhibits the angiogenic activity of angiogenin. The inhibitor is dispensed at a suitable concentration within a physiologically compatable medium, suitable for administration to an animal in sufficient quantity to inhibit the biological activity of naturally occurring angiogenin within the animal.

Systems and methods for responsive modification of electronic content are provided. In one embodiment, a moderator application executed by a processor accesses electronic content and provides the electronic content to a first client. The first client is restricted to accessing a first portion of a displayed area or frame sequence of the electronic content. The moderator application restricts the first client to performing only a first subset of modifications to the electronic content. Responsive to the first client performing one of the first subset of modifications, the moderator application provides the electronic content to a second client. The second client is restricted to accessing a second portion of the displayed area or the displayed frame sequence of the electronic content. The moderator application restricts the second client performing only a second subset of modifications to the electronic content.
