Abstract: A method for machining a plurality of surfaces of a respective plurality of drawers in an article of furniture includes mounting the article of furniture to a support structure to form a work piece, positioning the work piece on a base of a vertical gantry router in an orientation such that the plurality of surfaces are generally perpendicular to a cutting head of the vertical gantry router, and machining the plurality of surfaces with the vertical gantry router until the plurality of surfaces are substantially flat and substantially coplanar with one another.

Abstract: The present invention provides an operator compartment structure for a working machine. The compartment structure comprises a roof having an inner surface and an outer surface, and a floor spaced apart from the roof. A first section of the inner surface of the roof is orientated at an angle to the floor.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions and methods for characterizing, treating and diagnosing cancer. In particular, the present invention provides a cancer stem cell profile, as well as novel stem cell cancer markers useful for the diagnosis, characterization, prognosis and treatment of cancer and in particular the targeting of solid tumor stem cells.

Abstract: A device for measuring a user's range of clear focus (accommodation) comprising: a display for displaying a test image to the user at a first size; a sensor for determining the separation between the display and the user; and a processor for determining the angular subtence of the image to the user and to resize the test image in order to substantially maintain the angular subtence of the image when the separation between the display and the user is varied.

Abstract: Disclosed is a quenching medium for treating a heated metal part, said medium comprising water and a polyacrylate terpolymer comprising acrylamide and/or methacrylamide monomer units, acrylic acid and/or methacrylic acid monomer units and alkyl alkoxylate allyl ether monomer units where the acid groups are in the form of an alkali metal salt and where the alkyl alkoxylate allyl ether monomers are of the formula where n is an integer from 1 to about 30, R is ethylene, propylene or butylene and G is an alkyl group of 8 to 30 carbon atoms. Also disclosed is a method for quenching a heated metal part, which process comprises immersing said metal part in the quenching medium. Also disclosed are the polyacrylate ternary copolymers.

Abstract: A method of making a particulate foam control agent comprising 0.001 to 30 parts of silicone antifoam, 45 to 99 parts of a zeolite and 0 to 30 parts of a binder, preferably of a polycarboxylate-type, able to release at least some antifoam from the zeolite in the first 10 minutes of a washing cycle comprises depositing from 0.1 to 500% of the silicone antifoam of an organic surfactant onto the zeolite not later than depositing the silicone antifoam, at least 1 part of surfactant being used per 100 parts of the foam control agent. Also covered are detergent compositions and some foam control agents.

Abstract: A particulate foam control agent comprises 1 to 30 parts silicone antifoam, 70 to 99 parts zeolite carrier, 1 to 60% of the antifoam of an organopolysiloxane polyoxyalkylene copolymer, deposited onto the zeolite carrier not later than the antifoam and 1 to 40 parts by weight of a polycarboxylate-type binder or encapsulant. This combination give good release in early stages, storage stability and powder characteristics.
