Abstract: The instant disclosure features, among other things, compositions and methods for treating an autism spectrum disorder in a human. The compositions comprise an effective amount of: (1) an isothiocyanate (e.g., sulforaphane or a derivative thereof) or (2) a glucosinolate, and optionally, an enzyme, to thereby treat an autism spectrum disorder and/or reduce the severity of at least one symptom of the disorder. Methods for preparing such compositions are also featured.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are architectures and related processes and communication tools for enabling secure information sharing and post-merger integration planning during the regulatory review period of mergers and acquisitions. The disclosed embodiments include a secure information sharing architecture and related communication processes and tools for facilitating data flow from companies involved in a merger transaction into a quarantined center of a secure information sharing architecture while ensuring that information integrity is maintained in compliance with regulatory restrictions, and automated tools for allowing users to track and view the status of communications into and out of the quarantined center.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are architectures and related processes and tools for enabling secure information sharing during the regulatory review period of mergers and acquisitions. A secure information sharing architecture and related processes and tools is provided that facilitates data gathering and information organizing to accelerate the post merger integration process for companies involved in a merger transaction while ensuring that information integrity is maintained in compliance with regulatory restrictions. Embodiments of the invention permit a mirrored approach to integration research and planning.

Abstract: A medical disconnection guard 1 is disclosed comprising a plurality of fluid inlets 2 and a plurality of fluid outlets 3. The fluid inlets 2 are directly connected to the fluid outlets by fluid connectors 3a provided within a housing. In the event that an infusion line or monitoring line is accidentally pulled, the infusion line or monitoring line can come away from one side of the disconnection guard 1 whilst the patient remains connected to the disconnection guard 1 on the other side. The fluid inlets 2 and outlets 3 are preferably self-sealing.

Abstract: A System allowing the direct purchase of streaming media content by a Consumer. This System utilizes a Streaming Media Application Feature and a Processing Application to perform the sales transaction with minimal interaction by the Consumer. The Consumer simply tunes in to a media stream (audio or video) through a media device/application, through which they have the ability to purchase the media content directly based on available options.

Abstract: Set-top terminals utilized in broadband broadcast networks are becoming increasingly intelligent (programmable). However, transmitting executable code, data and interactive audio/video materials through a selectively dedicated link requires an extensive, broadband point-to-point broadband network, which is prohibitively expensive to implement for large numbers of customers. The present invention provides for downloading application software and transmitting audio/video information through one channel of a digital broadcast network. The network also provides two-way, low-speed data communications capacity, e.g. for signaling and/or interactive text services. Signaling via data communication with a text server controls downloading of executable code from the digital broadcast channel into a programmable digital set-top terminal. Execution of the downloaded code in turn controls selective capture and presentation of audio and video segments received over one of the digital broadcast channels.
