Abstract: Modular conduit alignment and resultant conduit systems are disclosed herein. An example system includes a plurality of modular sections, one of which connects to an terminal enclosure, each of the plurality of conduit assemblies having at least one coupler assembly having a first plurality of conduit interfaces extending from a first side of the at least one coupler assembly and a second plurality of conduit interfaces a second side of the at least one coupler assembly. The first plurality of conduit interfaces and the second plurality of conduit interfaces are aligned and form pathways that allow wiring to extend through the plurality of modular sections when the plurality of modular sections are arranged in series.

Abstract: A fraud detection system and method uses unique indicators for detecting fraud that extend beyond traditional transaction-based indicators. These unique indicators may include environmental information about a customer or a transaction. Such indicators may be used to identify fraud events based on computer-executable instructions that evaluate fraud risk. Further, an improved fraud detection system may include a learning component with a feedback loop. Also, authenticating and other information may be directed to the system for updating indicating data, fraud models, and risk assessments.

Abstract: The present invention generally relates, in some embodiments, to methods of determining a patient's prognosis for recurrence of prostate cancer and/or determining a course of treatment for prostate cancer following a radical prostatectomy.

Abstract: A vessel for collecting biological particulate matter suspended in fluid includes a body having first and second ends and a fluid passageway there between. A filter member is disposed at one of the first and second ends of the body, the filter member having a porosity that permits passage of fluid but retains at least a portion of the biological particular matter. The exterior surface of the body portion includes at least one agitation member. The agitation member may be formed, for instance, as a blade, fin, projection, helical ring, or other protuberance.

Abstract: A protective helmet for wearing while riding an open-air vehicle, such as a motorcycle or all-terrain vehicle. In addition to protecting the head from being injured in a collision, the helmet prevents particles of dirt, dust and similar debris from reaching the face of the helmet wearer. The helmet includes one or more removable filters which cover one or more air intakes ports formed in the helmet, and which are sufficiently porous to allow adequate air passage therethrough. Each filter is coated with a benign adsorption substance, such as vegetable oil, which captures the particles and prevents them from passing through to the rider, and which does not clog the filter pores. A filter with these characteristics also may be used in other applications, such as with air conditioners, carpentry dusk masks, and the like.

Abstract: The present invention provides vicinal diol containing monomers and polymers and methods of preparing and using such monomers and polymers. When crosslinked in aqueous fluids, the polymers form high viscosity gels which are stable at high temperatures.

Abstract: The present invention provides a water soluble vinyl monomer containing a vicinal diol group of the general formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is hydrogen or methyl; R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are independently methyl or ethyl; Y is oxygen or NH; X.sup.- is a halogen, sulfate, CH.sub.3 SO.sub.4.sup.- or C.sub.2 H.sub.3 SO.sub.4.sup.- or CH.sub.3 COO.sup.- and n is 2 or 3. Polymers containing the monomer when crosslinked in aqueous fluids form high viscosity gels which are stable at high temperatures and can be used in carrying out completion, stimulation, enhanced production and other treatments in subterranean formations.
