Abstract: A flexible laminate suitable for forming a package (10) having a reclosable flap (12) is provided that includes pressure sensitive adhesive (34) extending in a periphery region past a reseal margin (42) for the flap (12) and on an opposite side therefrom for joining an outer and inner layer (30, 36) of the laminate together, whether directly or indirectly. The pressure sensitive adhesive (34) can overlie a permanent adhesive (32) in the periphery region, or directly join the outer and inner layers of the laminate together. The use of pressure sensitive adhesive (34) in the region can reduce the tight registration needed for cutting the outer layer (30) to define an outward layer of the flap (12), thereby reducing the chances for cutting into a portion of the outer layer (30) joined only by permanent adhesive (32) to the inner layer (36).

Abstract: Disclosed embodiments include a bladeless generator carried by drilling string and disposed to employ mud flow through the drill string or return flow along the exterior of the drill string to drive the bladeless generator utilizing the boundary layer effect of fluid flow across a plurality of disks to generate electricity. The bladeless generator can be spaced apart from the primary flow path so as not to significantly disrupt flow therethrough. A portion of the primary flow path is diverted with flow channels or apertures to direct the diverted portion of the flow tangentially across a portion of the edges of the disks. The bladeless generator can be utilized to power electric downhole equipment, such as monitoring equipment or directional drilling steering equipment.

Abstract: A device includes a plurality of skin penetrating devices for delivering or withdrawing a substance through the skin of a patient. The device has a support formed with a top and bottom end and a plurality of channels extending axially through the support. A plurality of the skin penetrating members is positioned in the channels with a tip extending from the bottom end of the support. A coupling member is attached to the support for coupling with a fluid supply and directing the fluid to the skin penetrating members. The skin penetrating members have a length of about 100 microns to about 2000 microns and are about 30 to 50 gauge.

Abstract: An image sensor includes a pixel array and an image sensor objective optical element. The element is formed by a lenslet array. Each lenslet in the array directs incoming radiation onto a different specific pixel or sub-array of pixels in the pixel array. The lenslets in the array are shaped such that fields of view of next-but-one neighboring ones of the lenslets (i.e., two lenslets spaced from each other by another lenslet) do not overlap until a certain object distance away from the lenslet array.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present technology are directed to systems and methods for measuring projectile muzzle velocity. A muzzle velocity sensor measures an acceleration as well as a set of events occurring within the barrel of the firearm upon a shot being fired. Using the measured data, a muzzle velocity is calculated. The muzzle velocity sensor is used externally to the firearm, requiring no changes to the firearm or the projectile.

Abstract: Compositions and methods for the identification, prognosis, classification, treatment, and diagnosis of leukemia or a genetic predisposition to leukemia are provided. The present invention is based on the discovery of various genomic abnormalities of the IKZF1 gene which are shown herein to be associated with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), more particularly, associated with BCR-ABL1 positive ALL and/or shown to be associated with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), more particularly, associated with blast crisis chronic myeloid leukemia (BC-CML) and/or the likelihood of progression into blastic transformation of CML. These various genomic abnormalities of the IKZF1 gene can further be used as prognostic markers to identify a subgroup of ALL having very poor outcomes.

Abstract: Compositions and methods for the identification, prognosis, classification, diagnosis, and treatment of leukemia or a genetic predisposition to leukemia are provided. The present invention is based on the discovery of a novel intragenic deletion in the v-ets erythroblastosis virus E26 oncogene homolog (ERG) allele which is shown herein to be associated with a novel subtype of B-progenitor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). In one embodiment, the intragenic deletion in ERG results in the expression of C-terminal domain deletion forms of the ERG polypeptide which lacks the DNA-binding PNT domain and CAE domain of the ERG polypeptide and have dominant negative ERG activity. In other embodiments, the intragenic deletions results in a loss of expression of the native ERG polypeptide.
