Abstract: While displaying an application user interface, a device detects a first input to an input device of the one or more input devices, the input device provided on a housing of the device that includes the one or more display generation components. In response to detecting the first input, the device replaces display of at least a portion of the application user interface by displaying a home menu user interface via the one or more display generation components. While displaying the home menu user interface, the device detects a second input to the input device provided on the housing of the device; and in response to detecting the second input to the input device provided on the housing of the device: the device dismisses the home menu user interface.

Abstract: Provided is a compound of formula I, or pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, as defined herein for use in the treatment or prevention of a Dirofilaria infection in a mammal, The compounds are also for use in the treatment or prevention of diseases or conditions caused by a Dirofilaria infection in a mammal. Also described are corresponding methods of treating or preventing a Dirofilaria infection in a mammal.

Abstract: High-affinity response-selective C-terminal analogs of C5a anaphylatoxin are provided. Whereas natural C5a has considerable flexibility in the C-terminal region, the analogs of the invention possess a backbone conformation which is constrained at the C-terminus to a &bgr;-turn. The stabilized &bgr;-turn confers a marked increase in potency of the analogs; the particular &bgr;-turn motif further confers the capability to selectively elicit certain biological responses associated with C5a. Exemplary compounds of the invention are decapeptide analogs of the formula: A1-Ser-Phe-Lys-A2-A3-A4-A5-A6-A7, with the constrained &bgr;-turn being localized in the region of A4-A7.

Abstract: High-affinity response-selective C-terminal analogs of C5a anaphylatoxin are provided. Whereas natural C5a has considerable flexibility in the C-terminal region, the analogs of the invention possess a backbone conformation which is constrained at the C-terminus to a .beta.-turn. The stabilized .beta.-turn confers a marked increase in in potency of the analogs; the particular .beta.-turn motif further confers the capability to selectively elicit certain biological responses associated with C5a. Exemplary compounds of the invention are decapeptide analogs of the formula: A1-Ser-Phe-Lys-A2-A3-A4-A5-A6-A7, with the constrained .beta.-turn being localized in the region of A4-A7.

Abstract: A lubrication supply and return system for the center and rear bearing assemblies of a marine or industrial gas turbine engine. The supply line for both bearing assemblies and the return lines for the rear bearing assembly are mounted off-engine in an elongated tray which is supported by the engine and is capable of forward thermal expansion. The tray mounted supply line is connected to the supply pump and the center bearing assembly by flexible hoses. The tray supported return lines are attached to the scavenge pump by flexible hoses. The return lines from the center bearing assembly to the scavenge pump have flexible hose portions supported by the tray.

Abstract: A manifold system for a marine or industrial gas turbine engine, the system being independent of the engine. An annular steam manifold and an annular gaseous fuel manifold are provided transversely surrounding and substantially coaxial with the engine. The manifolds have a plurality of outlets, each connected by a flexible metal hose to its respective one of the engines' fuel nozzles. Each manifold is supported by a pair of stanchions mounted on the engine's foundation assembly and a pair of brackets attached to each stanchion. The brackets provide limited vertical, lateral, axial and tilt adjustments of the manifolds.

Abstract: In a refinery operation for producing asphalt, a metal organic acid salt is used to reduce H.sub.2 S caused by thermal decomposition of hydrocarbons in the asphalt.
