Abstract: Methods and systems consistent with certain disclosed embodiments provide applications. In one embodiment, a system is disclosed that provides applications. The system may include a computer system that receives a request related to an application and a database system. The database system may include a database and an application server module and a framework of software modules logically arranged to provide controlled access to data in the database. The application server module may use the data to generate content to generate a Web page related to the application. Further, the software modules may be logically arranged in layers such that access to data or software in a software module of one layer is performed by executing software in another software module of another layer.

Abstract: Systems and methods relate to managing an alarm clock function of a device. The systems and methods for compare a time setting of a new alarm by a user to one or more previous times settings that the alarm has been set to determine whether to warn the user about and/or require the user to confirm the time setting of the new alarm. The systems and methods can detect a user input indicating a first time setting for the alarm clock function. Further, the systems and methods can examine the one or more previous time settings associated with the alarm clock function determine, based on the one or more previous time settings, whether to query the user to confirm an activation of the alarm clock function at the first time setting.

Abstract: A method for building a client commerce system for a client networked environment can include the steps of: collecting one or more business requirements for the client commerce system, gathering one or more characteristics of the client networked environment, retrieving an initial client commerce system, and modifying the initial client commerce system to operate in the client networked environment and to provide the collected business requirements for the client commerce system. In the method, the initial client commerce system provides at least a portion of the collected business requirements and is configured for operating a network environment most closely matching the gathered characteristics of the client networked environment.

Abstract: A knock-down portable partition system has cover panels supported on a post and beam framework designed for quick and easy on-site manual assembly. The framework includes at least two vertical posts and at least two structural beams rigidly, yet detachably interconnecting the vertical posts. Connectors secure the beams to the posts, such that the partition system can be assembled and disassembled manually. The partition system may include utility troughs shaped to retain wires, cabling, etc. therein to provide power and/or communication to the system. The utility troughs have opposite ends shaped to be detachably mounted to the posts.

Abstract: The present invention comprises a clipboard having a support back with a clip at the top of the support back where a center and forward cut away or recessed portion of the clip is removed leaving two extension legs that are adapted to hold down at least the outside covers of a number of spine bound pages. The invention provides a user with the capability of holding open and supporting on the support back the collection of spine bound pages while making it very easy for the user to turn the pages of the spine bound pages back and forth to view the contents thereon.

Abstract: &bgr;2-microglobulin fusion proteins and modified forms of &bgr;2-microglobulin are disclosed. The fusion proteins are shown to incorporate onto the surface of MHC I expressing mammalian cells and to cause an increased cytotoxic T-cell response to antigens presented by such cells. The fusion proteins are useful in methods of tumor therapy. Modified forms of human &bgr;2-microglobulin, particularly a form having a serine to valine transition at amino acid position 55 of the mature protein are shown to have an enhanced affinity for MHC I heavy chain, and are useful both in the disclosed fusion proteins and as a vaccine adjuvant where enhanced cytotoxic T-cell response is desired.

Abstract: A setting and a method of making a setting include a V-end prong member having two V-shaped prongs preferably fabricated from a single length of material such as, for example, a round wire. Two grooves are die-struck into the length of material and extend from a center portion of the length of material toward opposite ends thereof. The length of material is blanked so as to trim excess material therefrom, forming a blank having opposite, receptacle-defining end portions, and a central portion. The blank is then bent so that the receptacles face each other to define the V-end prong member having two V-shaped end prongs and a central portion. A conventional prong member can then be attached to the central portion of the V-end prong member. The prong member includes spaced distal ends that confine the article between the spaced distal ends and the receptacles.
