Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the field of medicine. More particularly, the disclosure is in the field of treatment of diabetes, obesity and/or chronic weight management, dyslipidemia and/or NASH. The disclosure relates to compounds that agonize the amylin receptor and can lower food intake, body weight, glucose and/or triglycerides, so can be used to treat diabetes, obesity, and/or dyslipidemia. The present disclosure also includes pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds and therapeutic uses of such compounds and compositions.

Abstract: A long-distance learning system includes an instruction studio and one or more remotely located classrooms for students. Each of the student's participation, academic performance, and use of digital resources for a class is evaluated in real time and assigned a color, so the instructor can easily assess each student's progress in the class when presented to the instructor in a display which is only for the instructor.

Abstract: The present invention comprises a system and methods for the conversion of time-recorded seismic data, or images made from them after conversion of time to depth, into data structures that can be imported into and used in a three-dimensional geographic information system. The system and methods are robust with respect to the forms in which the seismic data is input into the invention. The system is general in that it is applicable to cross-sectional data other than those derived in seismic surveys and requires very non-restrictive definitions of cross-sectional planes, their orientations and datums with respect to the volumes they intersect.

Abstract: An internet information network is provided by linking content from a plurality of in-webpage views on a plurality of webpages using one or more page view (PV) navigator(s). Each PV navigator comprises a PV-anchor marking an in-webpage view on a webpage and one or more PV-links accessible (directly or indirectly) from said webpage. Each PV-link when activated navigates a user to a distinct PV-anchor on a distinct webpage. The application of a plurality of PV navigators (PV navigation system) to link the content (of in-webpage views) arranged according to a user-defined standard allows the user to browse for similar information efficiently across the information network while maintaining a focused orientation with respect to content of interest. The integration of a PV-database of PV-link records into a PV-navigator and PV-search means allows for the construction of scalable, custom and dynamic in-webpage view information networks according to the present disclosure.

Abstract: An instrument panel system includes box sections that increase the stiffness, rigidity, and natural frequency of the instrument panel system. A two-piece instrument panel system provides a two-tone appearance with differing die draws and grains.

Abstract: A portable knockdown table assembly has a separable collapsible slatted tabletop supported on a collapsible base in a setup condition. A pair of bag retaining straps carried by a tabletop slat releasably retain a disposable trash bag in a depending and open condition at one end of the table when the table assembly is setup and may also be employed to releasably secure the slatted tabletop in its collapsed or bundled condition when the table assembly is in its knockdown condition.

Abstract: A portable sling chair having a frame formed by a plurality of rigid axially elongated collapsible tubular frame members including a main frame member and a rear frame member connected for pivotal and axial sliding movement relative to each other, a collapsible front support member, a collapsible frame front support assembly, a collapsible frame rear support assembly, and at least one connecting member connecting the main frame member and the rear frame member to maintain the frame in a substantially static condition when the frame is resting on a supporting surface in setup condition. A rectangular panel made from flexible material is supported at its opposite ends by collapsible front and rear panel support members, extends therebetween, and defines contiguous chair seat and back portions when the frame is in its setup condition. All of the frame members are disposed in generally side-by-side relation to each other in the collapsed condition of the frame and form a compact bundle.

Abstract: A folding chair for use on both level and inclined supporting surfaces has a back support and a front leg assembly pivotally connected to a bottom for independent forward and rearward movement relative to the bottom and to each other between operative and collapsed positions. A flexible retaining strap of adjustable length maintains the front legs in selected angular position relative to the bottom and holds the bottom in a generally horizontally disposed position when the chair is supported on an inclined surface. A flexible carrying strap of adjustable length maintains the back in a comfortable back supporting position relative to the bottom. Lifting the chair by the carrying strap automatically collapses the chair into a compact bundle which may be carried on a shoulder by the carrying strap. Collapsible rear legs may be provided for supporting the chair bottom at a conventional chair seat height above a supporting surface.
