Abstract: An apparatus enabling a user to perform a simulated bicycling exercise includes a frame, two mounting points defining an axis, the two mounting points comprising an upper rear mounting point comprising an upper rear rotating joint and a lower front mounting point comprising a pivoting connection arrangement proximate to and interacting with the frame, the pivoting connection arrangement comprising at least one resistive element configured to provide resistive force returning the frame to a neutral centered orientation from an off-centered orientation and pedals associated with a wheel and the frame, the pedals enabling the user, when facing forward, to apply force to the pedals and rotate the wheel. The frame is configured to receive forces from the user and dissipate the forces into frame leaning forces such that the user has an ability to cause the frame to pivot about the two mounting points by leaning to one side.

Abstract: A method for automatically initiating a dental handpiece waterline flushing mode in a dental delivery system comprises detecting whether at least first and second handpiece waterlines from a plurality of handpiece waterlines are removed from respective first and second rest positions of a control head for the dental delivery system. According to some implementations, if it is determined that no additional dental handpiece waterline which is flushable remains in a rest position of the control head, then the dental handpiece waterline flushing mode is automatically initiated for the first and second dental handpiece waterlines. In some implementations, a display is updated to provide information to a user, and an input from the user is received to begin flushing.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are compositions comprising an osteoinductive Notch ligand bound to at least one biocompatible substrate. Also disclosed are methods of treating patients in need of bone tissue formation through the administration of a composition comprising an osteoinductive Notch ligand bound to at least one biocompatible substrate. Further provided are methods of treating a patient in need of bone tissue formation comprising administering to said patient a composition comprising a nucleic acid molecule encoding a notch intracellular domain (NICD). Also disclosed are kits for promoting bone tissue formation.

Abstract: Techniques for live-writing and editing closed captions are disclosed. In one particular embodiment, the techniques may be realized as a method for generating captions for a live broadcast comprising the steps of receiving audio data, the audio data corresponding to words spoken as part of the live broadcast; analyzing the audio data with speech recognition software in order to generate unedited captions; and generating edited captions from the unedited captions, wherein the edited captions reflect edits made by a user. All of these steps may be performed during the live broadcast.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention describe a method of generating an enhanced audio stream. The enhanced audio stream is generated from live audio received and accompanies a live video broadcast. This live audio is buffered and combined with a visual description of the live video broadcast. Together these form an enhanced audio stream. The visual description is entered by a visual describer while they are viewing a an instantaneously updated visual buffer size display. The visual buffer size display is calibrated to a pre-set maximum buffer size, and shows the pre-set maximum buffer size and the current buffer size in a visual manner. Further, live audio from the buffer that is inserted into the enhanced audio stream is compressed in time.
