Abstract: A surgical headlamp assembly which can be remotely actuated at a wearer's chest and is suitable for surgical applications may include a headpiece. The headpiece may be sizable and configurable for placement on the head of a wearer. A lamp may be provided on the headpiece. The lamp may include at least one light source. At least one battery may be provided on the headpiece. The lamp may electrically interface with the battery. A remote lamp control module may operationally interface with the battery and the lamp. The lamp control module may be configured to control emission of a light beam from the lamp. The remote lamp control module may be suspendable from the headpiece and deployable in front of the chest of the wearer. In typical application of the surgical headlamp assembly, the lamp control module may be worn on the chest of the wearer.

Abstract: A header for a combine harvester includes a conveyor belt for conveying crop material in a conveyance direction, and an adjusting device for adjusting a tension of the conveyor belt. The adjusting device includes a link that is movable with respect to a frame member of the header. The link is movable in a direction that is either orthogonal or substantially orthogonal to a tensioning direction of the conveyor belt for adjusting the tension of the conveyor belt. The conveyor belt may be an infeed conveyor belt or a lateral conveyor belt of a draper header, for example.

Abstract: An interoperable record matching process may allow for records without unique identifiers to be matched to a patient.

Abstract: A header for a combine harvester is provided. The header includes a row unit, a stalk roll, and a stalk roll knife. The stalk roll is mounted to the row unit. The stalk roll knife is mounted to the stalk roll and includes a plurality voids about a trailing end of the stalk roll knife.

Abstract: A row unit for a header of an agricultural harvester is provided that includes a first longitudinally extending stripping plate and a second longitudinally extending stripping plate each mounted on a frame and each having opposed stripping edges which define a gap between the first stripping plate and the second stripping plate. The row unit includes both operator-selected macro adjustment of the gap and automatic micro adjustment of the gap. The micro adjustment occurs on both deck plates. The micro adjustment is achieved through resilient members positioned functionally between the deck plates and the row unit frame.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for resolving outstanding issues or items associated with one or more tasks or projects. In various embodiments, data flows to a management application and an associated database and then back to an originating device. In various embodiments, the systems and methods use wireless devices and associated infrastructure to address problems and/or concerns in real-time. The systems and methods provide a tailored solution for individuals and companies utilizing lists and the like to communicate, schedule, and/or maintain information with other entities, such as supply chain suppliers, sub-contractors, etc. Information may be centrally stored and maintained in real-time with immediate access available using a processor-based device via a network.

Abstract: A novel approach to Borrelia vaccine formulation taking into account serological, genotypic and epidemiological information by which OspC proteins from different strains of B. burgdorferi are grouped together. OspC antigens are chosen in order to constitute a representative sample of such groupings, so that the resulting vaccine provides the greatest cross-protectivity with the fewest number of antigens.

Abstract: A system and method for continuously monitoring neighboring network elements and determining physical connection topology and changes in topology among network elements. Each port in a network element capable of having physical connectivity to a port on an adjacent network element has a unique identification of the node and a unique identification of the port. The identification is both available to the network management system and continuously transmitted on the physical link between two ports in the network, thus identifying the transmitting port to the receiving port. As nodes and ports are added to or deleted from a network, a representation of the nodes or ports is added or removed from the network management system. The local operating program in each network element informs the network management system of changes, or changes are queried by a network management system.

Abstract: Novel water-soluble free-flowing protein-fibre products are provided from cereal grains, such as wheat, free from starch, bran and low molecular weight degradation products thereof. Starch contaminants in soluble fractions of the cereal grains are removed by enzymatic degradation and separation. The protein to fibre ratio of the product may be modified by enzymatic treatment. Such materials are useful in a wide variety of food application.
