Abstract: This invention provides minimally invasive methods, reagents, diagnostic and prognostic markers useful for staging, prognosis and surveillance of colorectal cancers, and therapeutic intervention in individuals with colorectal cancers, or individuals who may be susceptible to developing colorectal cancers.

Abstract: A system is provided including a first elongated object proximate a first surface on a first side of a structure and a second elongated object proximate a second surface on a second side of the structure, the second surface and the second side opposite the structure relative to the first surface and the first side, the first object aligned with the second object at a first point on the first surface. The system also includes a first plurality of corner cubes affixed to the first object at first known distances from each other and from the first point, wherein the first object abuts the first surface at the first point. The system also includes a second plurality of corner cubes affixed to the second object at second known distances from each other and from the first point, wherein the second object abuts second surface at second point opposite first point.

Abstract: A dispenser for dispensing goods or services is resistant to fraudulent vandalism by use of a hacksaw by having a coin receiver including a coin runway having at least one guide surface to guide a coin along a runway axis. The runway has at least one moveable member located closely adjacent to the guide surface and mounted for movement relative to the guide surface. The moveable member has a moveable surface with a displacement component parallel to the runway axis so that when contacted by a reciprocating hacksaw, the moveable surface moves in the direction of the hacksaw to reduce relative movement between the hacksaw and the surface, thus preventing sawing of the member. In one embodiment, the moveable member is a rotatable member which is mounted so as to have an uppermost surface flush with the guide surface of the runway.
