Abstract: An exercise weight support device includes a retractable belt with an upper end for attachment to a ceiling or other overhanging support structure to enable suspension therefrom of the exercise weight support device, a cradle and/or one or more hooks to enable the weight support device to be used to suspend a free weight from the ceiling or other overhanging support structure, a retracting reel mechanism attached to the lower end of the belt to selectively retract or pay out the belt to selectively enable vertical movement of the free weight to a desired height, and a trigger handle co-located with the retracting reel mechanism and operable to selectively disallow lowering of the free weight when the trigger handle is not continuously operated by a lifter performing a lifting exercise.

Abstract: This invention is in the area of dosage formulations and methods of administering a CDK4/6 inhibitor for the transient protection of healthy cells, and in particular hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC), from damage associated with DNA damaging chemotherapeutic agents in subjects undergoing DNA damaging chemotherapeutic therapies for the treatment of proliferative disorders. In one aspect, improved protection of healthy cells is disclosed using a dosage that provides desirable pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic characteristics, including AUC, Tmax, Cmax, dosage-corrected AUC, and dosage-corrected Cmax. In another aspect, a method of treating a subject undergoing chemotherapy for the treatment of a CDK 4/6-replication independent cellular proliferation disorder by administering Compound 1 is provided.

Abstract: A restraining system is configured to secure and release a rider's footwear to a vehicle footrest in response to inputs to a control interface. The vehicle is typically a motorcycle or bicycle. In the case of a motorcycle, a rider's boot is restrained to a motorcycle foot peg by the action of a restraining device. Exemplary restraining device embodiments include an electromagnet or a mechanical latch. The control interface may be located on the motorcycle handlebar or on the rider's helmet. The rider can provide the inputs directly to the control interface. Alternatively, the inputs may be received from a wireless source.

Abstract: Methods for reducing or preventing the effects of cytotoxic compounds in healthy cells are provided. The methods relate to the use of selective cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitors to induce transient quiescence in CDK4/6 dependent cells, such as hematopoietic stem cells and/or hematopoietic progenitor cells. Also described is a method of selecting compounds for reducing or preventing the effects of cytotoxic agents compounds in healthy cells.
