Abstract: A liquid filter with a composite medium that has a nanoweb adjacent to and optionally bonded to a microporous membrane. The membrane is characterized by an LRV value of 3.7 at a rated particle size, and the nanoweb has a fractional filtration efficiency of greater than 0.1 at the rated particle size of the membrane. The nanoweb also has a thickness efficiency ratio of greater than 0.0002 at that efficiency. The nanoweb acts to provide depth filtration to the membrane, prefilters particles and extends the lifetime of the membrane.

Abstract: A liquid filter with a composite medium that has a nanoweb adjacent to and optionally bonded to a microporous membrane. The membrane is characterized by an LRV value of 3.7 at a rated particle size, and the nanoweb has a fractional filtration efficiency of greater than 0.95 at the rated particle size of the membrane. The nanoweb also has a thickness efficiency ratio of greater than 0.01 at that efficiency. The nanoweb acts to provide depth filtration to the membrane, prefilters particles and extends the lifetime of the membrane.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a storage processor interface assembly includes a circuit board supporting a storage processor, first and second standard compliant power connectors, and first, second, and third standard compliant data connectors. The second power connector and the second data connector are positioned such that they may mate with corresponding standard compliant power and data connectors on a storage device. The storage processor is capable of operating with the second and third data connectors in at least one of a mirrored memory mode and a storage expansion mode. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Method of treating a disease or pathological condition with activated protein C or a compound having activated protein C activity by direct regulation of the expression of specific genes associated with the disease or pathological condition.

Abstract: A system and method provide an audio analysis intelligence tool with ad-hoc search capabilities using spoken words as an organized data form. An SQL-like interface is used to process and search audio data and combine it with other traditional data forms to enhance searching of audio segments to identify those audio segments satisfying minimum confidence levels for a match.

Abstract: The present invention relates to audio data monitoring using speech recognition technology. In particular, the present invention uses business rules combined with unrestricted, natural speech recognition to monitor conversations in a customer interaction environment, literally transforming the spoken word to a retrievable data form. Implemented using the VorTecs Integration Platform (VIP), a flexible Computer Telephony Integration base, the present invention enhances quality monitoring by effectively evaluating conversations and initiating actionable events while observing for script adherence, compliance and/or order validation.

Abstract: A split torque gearbox having multiple input shafts. Each input shaft is connected to two face gears. Each face gear is connected to two quill shafts, one is coaxially mounted and the second is not coaxially mounted. Of the two quill shafts, one is positioned on a first side of an output stage and a second quill shaft is located on a second side of the output stage and the quill shafts are connected thereto. The output stage is connected to a main shaft.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for screening of a large number of compounds for their ability to modulate the expression of genes. The method uses gene trap technology and comprises the steps of transfecting a population of cells with a gene-trap vector, sorting cells according to their level of fluorescence, distributing sorted cells into pools and expanding the pools to obtain a sufficient number of cells representing each trapped gene to permit distinction of the effect of a test compound over controls, exposing the cells to the test compounds and identifying compounds which alter the fluorescence distribution pattern of cells using FACS analysis.

Abstract: A system and method according to the present invention automates call monitoring activities to evaluate and directly improve agent-customer interactions. Rather than listening to an entire call or monitoring only a small fraction of all the calls made in the contact center, the system performs highly accurate, automated evaluations of all customer interactions. By automating the time-consuming aspect of monitoring calls, the system empowers contact center operators to address quality issues, more accurately measure, coach and reward agents, and identify business-critical trends.

Abstract: The present invention provides a blown fuse indicator. More specifically, the present invention provides a blown fuse indicator adapted for use with multiple element fuses, which provides a perceivable distinction between a blown fuse due to a current overload and a blown fuse due to a short circuit. To this end, in one embodiment of the present invention, a diagnostic blown fuse indicator is provided for a fuse having both a short circuit element and a current overload element. The indicator includes a short circuit indicator in electrical communication with the short circuit element, wherein the short circuit indicator provides visual indication of a short circuit condition. The indicator also includes a current overload indicator in electrical communication with the current overload element, wherein the current overload indicator provides visual indication of an overload condition.

Abstract: The basic formulation to eradicate mold is a solution of 4 ounces of the essential oil of thyme mixed with one gallon of water. The mixture is sprayed, with a diffuser, into a room of a dwelling. The solution is misted over all surfaces. AC outlet vents are similarly sprayed. The AC inlet vent is also sprayed when the AC is turned ON. Preferably, the dwelling is tented and a small positive air pressure is maintained in the dwelling for 24 hours. The treatment is repeated with an enhanced solution of 4 oz. of essential oils mixed with one gallon of water. The mixture of essential oils is 50% by volume of thyme essential oil and the remaining 50% is equal parts of the essential oils of: cajeput, cedarwood, citronella, clove, cypress, fir-needle, eucalyptus, garlic, lavender, lemon, lemongrass, marjoram, niaouli, onion, orange, oregano, patchouli, peppermint, rosemary, rosewood, tea tree, y-lang and vetivert.
