Abstract: An improved understanding and method for the clinical adjuvant and immunomodulatory use of dsRNAs and ply-ICLC in particular, alone or in conjunction with other drugs and various vaccines designed to prevent or treat various microbial, viral, neoplastic, autoimmune diseases, and or degenerative diseases.

Abstract: An angle measurement tool having two legs joined together about a common axis so that one of the legs rotates with respect to the other to form a desired angle the value of which is read utilizing gears that are housed in said legs in combination with indicia means indicating the degree of rotation of the gears.

Abstract: A custom designed drive mechanism to be utilized in conjunction with an ink jet printer having a motor, transmission, and gripping apparatus to transmit articles of manufacture to be printed upon through an enclosure having a linear bearing and spring system, an optical sensor, digital encoder and print mechanism such that the articles of manufacture travel in a single direction.

Abstract: A print mechanism positioned in a housing having a pivotably mounted cover and including a ink flow regulator operatively connected to a print cartridge and provided with a plurality of seals to prevent contamination and damage from unwanted ink flow.

Abstract: An angle measurement tool in which the assembled components result in only two moving parts that are pivoted relative to each other and wherein the pivot axis is the geographic center of the angle measurement component and wherein a miter joint angle, the correspondent actual angle, the complementary angle of the actual angle and the supplementary angle of the actual angle can be read simultaneously.

Abstract: An angle measurement tool having two legs held together by a removable adjustment member in which the legs are joined together about a common axis so that one of the legs rotates with respect to the other to form a desired angle the value of which is read using indexing means located on both legs.

Abstract: A food preparation apparatus having a food carrier holding one or more articles of food being removeably positioned on a transport mechanism for travel in a linear direction and being simultaneously rotated and advanced subjecting the food to a predetermined level of cooking heat wherein the carrier has a predetermined weakened area for improved handling of the food after cooking. A food preparation apparatus having a discharge station allowing finished products to safely exit and not immediately handled by the operator. Because of the magnetic rail system the food-mounting skewer stays in place horizontally (hangs in space,) while pushed further along the rail by the next product. This is extremely useful for operations such as amusement parks and carnivals where the operator's attention is frequently distracted. The food being discharged will simply move along the rail, and wait for the operator, there is no chance of the product falling, or piling up due to lack of operator attention.

Abstract: An angle measuring tool having pivotally connected members and an angle measurement index with and off center portion positioned so that upon the rotation of one member with respect to the other the angle between the two members can be accurately determined with no possibility of slippage of the angle measurement index due to the off center portion mating with one of the members.

Abstract: An angle measurement tool in which the assembled components result in only two moving parts that are pivoted relative to each other and wherein the pivot axis is the geographic center of the angle measurement component and wherein a miter joint angle, the correspondent actual angle, the complementary angle of the actual angle and the supplementary angle of the actual angle can be read simultaneously.

Abstract: An angle measurement tool having several components that are assembled to form two moving parts wherein one of the parts is a straight edged member combined with angle measurement means and the other is a straight edged member with both straight edge members sharing a common pivot axis with the angle measurement means and simultaneously providing readings of the miter joint angle, the actual angle formed by the legs, the complementary angle of the actual angle and the supplementary angle of the actual angle.

Abstract: An improved housing for use in a laser pump module, including a laser rod housed within a sleeve and laser diodes providing the rod excitation, wherein the main housing structure is constructed from a single piece of material and formed with internal interconnected internal passageways to provide for efficient cooling of the pump sources and the sleeve provides the outer wall of the coolant passage for cooling of the laser rod.
