Abstract: A modular unit for use in an architectural façade system includes a frame, at least one multiple-sided chamber rotatably mounted on the frame, a motor mounted on the frame, a transmission for transferring rotational output from the motor to cause rotation of the multiple-sided chamber, a controller for operating the motor, and wherein at least one of the sides of the chamber displays one of a solar array, horticultural greenery, and a light-emitting display panel.

Abstract: A portable stand for a wind musical instrument including an instrument peg, a first-stand-section, and a second-stand-section. The instrument peg includes an instrument interface and a stand interface, with the instrument interface configured to removably interface with, and support the wind musical instrument. The instrument peg includes a first-inside face, a first-outside-face, and a first-perimeter extending, with the first-perimeter extending between the first-inside-face and the first-outside-face. The second-stand-section includes a second-inside-face, a second-outside-face, and a second-perimeter extending between the second-inside face and the second-outside-face, with the second inside-face including a second-recess dimensioned and sized to receive the complementary portion of the instrument peg. The second-stand-section is hingeably coupled to the first-stand-section by at least one hinge.

Abstract: The invention provides novel polynucleotides, related polypeptides related nucleic acid and polypeptide compositions, and related modulators, such as antibodies and small molecule modulators. The invention also provides methods to make and use these polynucleotides, polypeptides, related compositions, and modulators. These methods include diagnostic, prophylactic, and therapeutic applications. The compositions and methods of the invention are useful in treating proliferative disorders, e.g., cancers, such as kidney and pancreatic cancer; and inflammatory, immune, and viral disorders.
