Abstract: A system for selecting, picking by line, loading and delivering objects using a server with processor and data storage, at least one mobile processor, with a mobile data storage, a display, an input device and an output device, and an object location identification trigger for providing one of three signals to the host server is provided herein. The mobile processor receives, verifies, and stores various codes on objects and locations and delivery information for continuous and instantaneous use by an operator, while the operator provides the signals from the OLI trigger. The server stores various libraries containing information on an object, a location, an operator, a transport device, and a transport vehicle. The server can transmit a list of objects, a list of delivery devices, a delivery vehicle and a delivery location to the mobile processor for continuous use with the OLI trigger.

Abstract: A method for delivering objects using at least one onboard mobile processor in communication with a mobile data storage to provide at least one command to a driver is provided herein. The onboard mobile processor can be in further communication with at least one input device. A host processor can provide the libraries and a list of objects to and delivered to the onboard mobile processor. The host processor can be in communication with a host data storage that comprises computer instructions. An output device and an OLI trigger can also be used in conjunction with the onboard mobile processor.

Abstract: A saw for undercutting door jambs or trim including a saw blade attached to a flange having a first portion attached to the saw blade, a second, offset portion that extends away from a plane defined by the first portion and a third portion that extends away from the second portion in a plane generally parallel with the first portion. The third portion of the flange has a saw attachment portion for use with a general purpose saw.

Abstract: A method for quantitating enzyme activity that causes phosphorylation or dephosphorylation of a peptide or protein substrate is provided. The method utilizes the differences in fluorescence polarization of a phosphorylated amino acid-containing fluorescence-emitting reporter molecule free in solution as compared to being bound to a binding molecule.

Abstract: Pressure sensor methods and systems are disclosed. In general, two micromachined die and a diaphragm for a pressure sensor can be provided. The two micromachined die can be embedded in a glass adhesive on a surface of the diaphragm, such that the glass adhesive possesses a large size relative to the two micromachined die. The large size of the glass adhesive creates a large planar target for placement of the two micromachined die upon the diaphragm, thereby providing a size difference between the glass adhesive and the two micromachined die thereby creates an optimum strain transfer, while maintaining stability for the pressure sensor.

Abstract: Isolated polynucleotide molecules that encode mature, wild-type and imidazolinone-tolerant acetohydroxyacid synthase large subunit (AHASL) polypeptides, and the amino acid sequences encoding these polypeptides, are described. Expression cassettes and transformation vectors comprising the polynucleotide molecules of the invention, as well as plants and host cells transformed with the polynucleotide molecules, expression cassettes, and transformation vectors, are described. Methods of using the polynucleotide molecules to enhance the resistance of plants to herbicides, and methods for controlling weeds in the vicinity of such plants are also described.

Abstract: Differential pressure sensor systems and methods are disclosed, including an absolute pressure sensor composed of a plurality of pressure sense die for detecting sensed media, wherein each of the pressure sense die possess a back side and a front side and are respectively associated with a plurality of varying pressures. The sensed media are applied only at the backside of the pressure sense die, thereby preventing wire bonds and active regions associated with the front side of the pressure sense die from exposure to sensed media and attack from acids and abrasive chemicals associated with the sensed media.

Abstract: Sensor systems and methods are disclosed, which generally incorporate isolation between the sensor's electronics and the sensed media. The sensor's electronic circuit can incorporate one or more application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) that processes and outputs the signal for both absolute and differential measurements. Such a sensor can be adapted for use in exhaust gas re-circulation (EGR) systems utilized with automotive gasoline engines. Such a sensor can also be utilized for measuring differential pressure across diesel particular filters and/or applications in which differential pressure is required for system control and/or monitoring purposes. The absolute pressure sensor disclosed herein can therefore sense the exhaust pressure on automotive engines and other mechanical and/or electromechanical devices and machines.
