Abstract: A laundry appliance includes a cabinet that has a front panel. A tub is positioned within the cabinet. A door is coupled to the front panel of the cabinet. The door moves vertically between a closed position and an opened position. A bellows assembly is coupled to the front panel. The bellows assembly extends between the cabinet and the tub. A sealing assembly includes a first seal and a second seal that are each coupled to the bellows assembly.

Abstract: A laundry appliance includes a cabinet defining an aperture in a front surface thereof. A drum is disposed within the cabinet. The drum defines an access opening that aligns with the aperture. A door is coupled to the cabinet and is operable between closed and opened positions relative to the aperture. A bellows extends along a perimeter of the aperture and proximate the access opening. A deflector extends along at least a portion of the perimeter of the aperture. The deflector extends into an interior of the drum over the bellows.

Abstract: Methods for the detection of, or the risk of, bladder cancer in a patient, comprising assaying for the presence of a combination of at least two biomarkers selected from CEA, VEGF, IL-8, NGAL, NSE, IL-2, EGF, TM, d-Dimer, MMP-9, IL-6, IL-4, MMP-9/NGAL, FAS, CRP, TUP and NMP22 in one or more samples isolated from a patient wherein detecting the presence of a combination of at least two biomarkers in the one or more samples indicates the presence or risk of bladder cancer.

Abstract: The present invention provides an immunoassay method for detecting or determining the amount of salvinorin A, salvinorin B and/or analogues thereof in an in vitro sample, an antibody for salvinorin A, salvinorin B and/or analogues thereof and a kit for detecting the presence of or determining the amount of salvinorin A, salvinorin B and its analogues thereof in a sample.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to methods of detecting bladder cancer including assaying a patient sample for the levels of certain combinations of biomarkers. The disclosure also relates to methods for determining the efficacy of a drug for the treatment of bladder cancer.

Abstract: The disclosed subject matter includes a method of distributing a payment of funds made payable to two or more payees. In some embodiments, the method includes the following: receiving a payment of funds made payable to two or more payees; inviting each of the two or more payees to electronically select a preferred method of funds delivery; authenticating each of the two or more payees' identity; electronically receiving the preferred method of funds delivery selected by each of the two or more payees; and delivering funds from the payment of funds to one or more of the two or more payees according to the preferred methods of funds delivery received.

Abstract: The invention relates to methods of diagnosing Alzheimer's disease (AD) in a subject and methods of determining the prognosis in patients with AD. The adhesion molecules P-selectin and L-selectin are described for the first time for use as biomarkers to aid in the diagnosis of AD. The invention further describes the use of one or more of L-selectin, MCP-1, IL-1?, IL-8 and IFN-? to aid in the prognosis of either accelerated cognitive decline (ACD) or slow cognitive decline (SCD) in patients with AD.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for the detection of or the risk of bladder cancer in a patient, comprising the step of detecting the presence of a combination of at least two biomarkers selected from CEA, VEGF, IL-8, NGAL, NSE, IL-2, EGF, TM, d-Dimer, MMP-9, IL-6, IL-4, MMP-9/NGAL, FAS, CRP, TUP and NMP22 in one or more samples isolated from a patient wherein the presence of a combination of at least two biomarkers in the one or more samples indicates the presence or risk of bladder cancer.

Abstract: A system and method of facilitating a transfer of a refund amount from an educational institution to a student. A refund controller receives from an educational institution a request for authorization of an instant paper check of a payment amount equal to at least a portion of a total refund amount associated with the student of the educational institution student. The refund controller verifies the payment amount is equal to or less than an amount of funds available to the student and transfers funds equal to the payment amount to an instant issuance account. The refund controller authorizes the educational institution to issue an instant paper check for the payment amount to the student. The instant paper check draws from the instant issuance account.

Abstract: A device which will effectively turn a page, for example a page of a booklet of music, enabling a musician to play "hands free", has a book carrier (13) on a frame (11) and a number of page turner subassemblies (16) each with a disc (17) rotatable on an axle (12), each disc (17) having a notch (18) in its periphery, and also having an arm (20) radiating outwardly from the disc (17) and having a clip (57) to engage the page at the swinging end of the arm (20), and a spring (23) which will urge the arm (20) in a pivotal movement of the disc (17) in a page-turning direction, and an escapement mechanism (30) which co-operates with the notches (18) in the discs (17) to inhibit pivotal movement until released by a remote actuated controller (32).
