Abstract: A passenger transport system comprising at least one electromechanical self-powering RF signal generator having a push & return mechanism, and at least one passenger seat having a seat region, wherein said push & return mechanism is installed, said generator, which is provided with an RF transmitter, is equipped to self-generate electric power based on a mechanical force applied on the push & return mechanism by a passenger sitting in the seat region, and whereby said generated electric power is used for the RF transmitter to transmit an RF signal on an adjustable frequency in case the passenger sitting in the seat region thereby presses a switch of the push & return mechanism, and which passenger transport system further comprises: a central RF receiver for receiving transmitted RF signals which have features to identify the individual passenger seats he RF signals are transmitted from, and means for based on the received RF signals deriving information indicating which of the passenger seats

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and compositions for use in inducing tumor-specific antibody mediated complement-dependent cytotoxic response in an animal having a tumor comprising administering to said animal a composition comprising a replication competent oncolytic virus wherein administration of the composition induces in the animal production of antibodies that mediate a CDC response specific to said tumor.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include compositions and methods related to replicative oncolytic rhabdoviruses pseudotyped with an arenavirus glycoprotein and their use as anti-cancer therapeutics particularly in combination with complement inhibitors.

Abstract: Certain embodiments are directed to viral production processes for the large scale production of vaccinia virus.

Abstract: A vaccination method is provided. The method comprises administering to a mammal a histone deacytelase inhibitor in conjunction with a vaccine that expresses an antigen to which the mammal has a pre-existing immunity.

Abstract: The bobber and fishing line is a bottle shaped bobber with a plastic tube extending through the cap, and extending down through the bottle and exiting through a hole in the bottom end of the bottle shaped bobber, with fishing line running through the length of the tube and out the bottom to a length determined by the user to attach a hook and bait. A clip on the cap allows for a second bait hook to be attached on the top end of the bobber.

Abstract: The present invention provides a system and method to dynamically identify, assemble, or otherwise simulate the availability of resources for an orchestrated service or application, thereby allowing for strategic changes in scheduling, purchasing, hiring, and the like to ensure that the resources needed to deliver the desired outcome during a particular time period are present. In particular, the system includes an orchestration module storing a plurality of resource parameters, correlating a predetermined criterion for one or more resources with an event, and simulating the event, where the simulation includes comparing the stored plurality of parameters with the predetermined criterion. The system further determines whether the stored plurality of parameters satisfy the predetermined criterion, and may store the determination for subsequent evaluation.
