Abstract: The invention provides methods for manufacturing optimized CAR T cell therapies and uses thereof. Specifically, the invention provides parameters that can be measured, e.g., evaluated, to manufacture CAR T cell therapies with optimized properties. The invention further provides methods of use in connection with said optimized CAR T cells.

Abstract: The mower blade system provides one or more blades, preferably two, secured to a housing that is attached to the mower. The blades provide a cutting edge that is sharpened for mowing the yard, lawn, field, or other area. The blade attaches to an attachment arm via a locking body and retention body. A pivot aperture of the blade is placed upon a pivot finger of the attachment arm that secures the blade on the attachment arm. The locking body abuts the pivot finger to secure the blade on the pivot finger. The retention body then slides over the locking body to further secure the blade on the pivot finger.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for applying a fluid such as paint to the surfaces of a plurality of lengths of pipe, the apparatus including an automated processing line composed of a receiving platform configured for receiving the plurality of lengths of pipe, a vat down the line from the receiving platform for containing the fluid, a draining platform down the line from the vat, the draining platform being configured for elevating an end of each length of pipe of the plurality of lengths of pipe relative to an opposite end of the length of pipe, and a conveyor system configured for engaging the plurality of lengths of pipe and advancing the plurality of lengths of pipe through the vat and across the draining platform by rolling.

Abstract: An improved rotary mower blade in which a carrier which is rotatably connect to a spindle driven by the mower engine, receive and holds a pair of opposed sharpened cutting segments. The cutting segments are held in place while the carrier is rotated, and are removable and replaced as needed when the carrier is stationary.

Abstract: An article of manufacture that contains a plurality of yarns woven into an interlocking 3-dimensional structure whether or not uniform and symmetrical such that the interlocking impedes the penetration of projectiles such as bullets, fragments, flachettes and the like. The articles of the present invention are useful for providing a high degree of ballistic resistance and are therefore useful in armor applications.
