Abstract: The invention provides DNA compositions that relate to transgenic insect resistant maize plants. Also provided are assays for detecting the presence of the maize DAS-59122-7 event based on the DNA sequence of the recombinant construct inserted into the maize genome and the DNA sequences flanking the insertion site. Kits and conditions useful in conducting the assays are provided.

Abstract: Anti-Epstein Barr Virus (EBV) vaccines are described herein. The EBV vaccine antigens are linked to a multimerization domain, for example, presented on a circular tandem repeat protein (cTRP) scaffold or linked to a C4b multimerization domain. The vaccines can be used to treat and/or reduce the risk of EBV infection and to treat and/or reduce the risk of complications associated with EBV infection, such as infectious mononucleosis, lymphoproliferative disorders, carcinomas, and smooth muscle tumors.

Abstract: A mailer intermediate, and a combination postcard and negotiable instrument mailer, are provided which has the benefit of postcard postal rates, yet provides the confidentiality of a mailer. The intermediate is formed by a quadrate sheet of cellulose based stock with first and second parallel lines of weakness (e.g., perforations) extending substantially transverse to the side edges of the sheet and dividing the sheet into an outgoing address portion, a negotiable instrument portion, and a combination security and reply portion. When the sheet is folded about the first line of weakness to form a mailer, the mailer has postcard-sized dimensions (e.g., about 4.25".times.6") with the outgoing addressee indicia image on the outside face of the address portion and negotiable instrument indicia (including payee and MICR indicia) on the inside of the mailer, negotiable instrument portion. The outgoing address portion has a width of about 1.2-1.

Abstract: A snow grooming device for leveling a snowmobile trail comprising a frame having retractable wheels for transporting the snow grooming device and a set of angled blades which direct the snow back and forth across the trail to a leveler bar that directs the snow to a compacter attachment.
