Abstract: Mechanisms are provided for allowing a user to dynamically manage rich media content in an efficient and effective manner. Tiles including media content, personalized video selections, content pack upgrades, and promotions for featured content are presented to a user. Each tile may include calls to view, purchase, discuss, rate, review, or read about associated content. Tiles may be presented as still images, logos, text, or live video. Multiple tiles may be manipulated using keyboard, mouse, touchpad, and/or touchscreen movements, motions, and gestures. In particular examples, an overlay provided on top of a tile mechanism provides a user with additional navigation and management options.

Abstract: Methods and materials are provided for decreasing or eliminating interference from molecules resulting from upstream immunochemical procedures, such as Immunoprecipitation, that employ an Immunoglobulin Binding Molecule (an IBM, e.g., Protein A) in subsequent downstream methods, such as Western Blot. An effective amount of a ligand of the IBM is used to block the IBM or fragments of the IBM on a support membrane used in the downstream method. In another embodiment, a secondary antibody that is specific either for heavy chain or light chain antibody fragments or that recognizes intact antibody molecules but does not recognize individual antibody fragments may be employed with the ligand of the IBM.

Abstract: A Mailbox Caddie for reception and containment of pieces of mail, fully insertable into an individual standard Post Office mailbox. The tray consists of an economic, one piece molded plastic part, integrating all functional and aesthetically features, to match the Mailbox Caddie having four sides, which form an almost hollow parallelepiped, except for its front end, which is open, with both sides left and right tapered towards the front. The front edge base has a round lip and a sponge rubber adhesive pad to ease its handling. The base has three central ribs, raised from the bottom, to brace the length of the tray and raise the pieces of mail from the bottom of the base around the three up right sides, with an outer extended perpendicular edge also reinforcing the tray. When the tray is pulled out so far that it pivots on the front of the box, the outer back corners of the perpendicular upper edge limit the pivoting angle of the Mailbox Caddie as it is removed.

Abstract: A three axis attitude orientation system for a spacecraft in orbit which employs a single UV sensor. The single sensor provides roll and pitch information by locating the centroid of the earth and using this as a reference point. The system determines yaw by tracking the position of stars which appear in the field of view around the earth. Three axis attitude is determined through ultraviolet imaging of the earth's limb and adjacent stars. A non-conventional wide angle optics assembly and intensified CCD array are utilized for this purpose.
