Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure include methods, apparatuses, and computer readable media for controlling access including receiving registration information associating a mobile device with an access device, wherein the access device provides an access privilege to an access-controlled point, associating the mobile device with the access device, receiving a blocking request from the mobile device to suspend the access privilege to the access-controlled point provided by the access device, authenticating the blocking request, and suspending, in response to authenticating the blocking request, the access privilege to the access-controlled point provided by the access device.

Abstract: A bicycle shift control device includes a housing, at least one operating lever, a rotatable member, a flexible elongated member, and a gear indicator portion having a window. The rotatable member has a guide member and is disposed within the housing. The rotatable member is configured to rotate in response to movement of the at least one operating lever. The flexible elongated member has a first end portion and a second end portion. The first end portion is connected to the rotatable member for movement therewith and extends at least part-way along the guide portion of the rotatable member. The second end portion is configured for movement along the gear indicator portion with at least a tip of the second end portion of the flexible elongated member being visible through the window of the gear indicator portion.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an isolated nucleic acid molecule comprising a sequence of nucleotides encoding a ?-ketoacyl ACP synthase II from a plant, or a variant, derivative, homolog or analog of said ?-ketoacyl ACP synthase II. The invention also relates to an isolated ?-ketoacyl ACP synthase II enzyme from a plant. The polynucleotide sequences of the present invention may be used inter alia for the generation of cells or plants comprising such cells which have a modified phenotype and/or which exhibit a desired characteristic.
