Abstract: The invention features compounds and a method of treating an injury or a disease e.g., stroke, congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, and viral infection, using the compounds. Also featured is a pharmaceutical composition containing one or more of the compounds, and a method of increasing spermatogenesis using the compounds.

Abstract: The invention features compounds which modulate FGF activity, e.g., by enhancing the binding between FGF-2 and its receptors, e.g., FGF-R1. Also featured is a pharmaceutical composition containing one or more of the compounds, a method of treating an injury or a disease e.g., stroke, congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, and viral infection, and a method of increasing spermatogenesis using the pharmaceutical composition.

Abstract: A system and method of recovering waste heat from an engine when the engine is not operating, which includes connecting a heater core to source of fluid heated due to operation of the engine with fluid lines, the flow of fluid from the source of heated fluid controlled by one or more pump, and operating the pumps when the engine is not operating to circulate the fluid from the source of heated fluid through the heater core. A second aspect includes a portable heat recovery system.

Abstract: The improved milling machine makes use of individually controlled x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis carriages. These carriages provide positive and precise control of the position of the cutting tools and the blank to be cut. A tool changer allows the tools to be changed to accommodate other materials. A camera is used to detect wear on the tools.

Abstract: A technique for efficient small block memory allocation in processors. One or more segments are allocated in the memory, wherein each segment is comprised of a plurality of data pages. A same size pool is created for a specified block size and one or more of the data pages are assigned to the same size pool, wherein the assigned data page is subdivided into a plurality of free blocks of the specified block size. A request for memory of the specified block size is satisfied by accessing the data page assigned to the same size pool and allocating one or more of the free blocks of the data page to the request.
