Abstract:
An adjustable weight plate to be used with a standard or Olympic barbell handle, comprising a wide opening that is easy to fill with sand or other loose filler material, multiple inner compartments to separate out the sand and equalize the weight, and reinforcing dividers to strengthen the weight plate. The adjustable weight plate also comprises a metal collar to strengthen the inner radius of the weight plate, and an easy-fill funnel to fill the weight plate with sand.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to the analysis of cytological material. Specifically, the invention relates to stains and methods of producing the stains, methods of staining cells for cytological or histological analysis to contrast the nuclear portion of the cell from the cytoplasmic portion, and systems and methods for illuminating a cytological sample. The analysis can be automated or manual.
Abstract:
An automated grill cleaning system for automatically cleaning a grill in a cooker includes a cooking unit that may be used to cook. The cooking unit has a housing and a grill is positioned in the housing. The housing has an outer wall. A cleaning unit is coupled to the cooking unit and the cleaning unit is positioned on the outer wall. The cleaning unit selectively engages the grill. The cleaning unit urges itself to travel along the grill to abrade debris from the grill.

Abstract:
A system and method of accurately predicting and reporting a value of a property based on a weighted average of values predicted by at least two prediction models. The system and method include the steps of accessing predicted values, determined by the prediction models, for the property; determining property-specific proportional prediction error distribution information for each predicted value determined by each prediction model; assigning a weight to the predicted value determined by each prediction model by using the property-specific proportional prediction error distribution information; and generating a property-specific weighted average value based on combination of the weight and the predicted value determined by each prediction model and reporting the property-specific weighted average value to minimize prediction error during prediction of the property value.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to human Rho-kinase I (ROCK I), ROCK I binding pockets, ROCK I-like binding pockets. More particularly, the present invention provides a computer comprising a data storage medium encoded with the structure coordinates of such binding pockets. This invention also relates to methods of using the structure coordinates to solve the structure of homologous proteins or protein complexes. In addition, this invention relates to methods of using the structure coordinates to screen for and design compounds, including inhibitory compounds, that bind to ROCK I protein or ROCK I protein homologues, or complexes thereof. The invention also relates to crystallizable compositions and crystals comprising ROCK I kinase domain and ROCK I kinase domain complexed with an inhibitor of that domain. The invention also relates to methods of identifying inhibitors of the ROCK I kinase domain.
