Abstract: A jewelry viewing stand including a stand, an imaging device, and an adjustable base is provided. The imaging device is configured to image a piece of jewelry and the stand is configured to hold and position the imaging device. The adjustable base is attached to the stand and positioned beneath the imaging device. The adjustable device is configured to move a piece of jewelry vertically toward and away from the imaging device while the stand maintains the imaging device in a stable, stationary position.

Abstract: The invention relates to a sensor assembly for recognizing a state of a roadway, including a sensor device, which is adapted to capture an impact of water on a wheel arch lining of a motor vehicle during a travel of the motor vehicle on the roadway, and including a control device for recognizing the state of the roadway based on the impact of the water captured by means of the sensor device, wherein the sensor device includes an ultrasonic sensor, which is adapted to receive an ultrasonic signal and which is additionally adapted to capture the impact of the water on the wheel arch lining.

Abstract: Compositions and methods related to transgenic glyphosate/ALS inhibitor-tolerant maize plants are provided. Specifically, the present invention provides maize plants having a DP-098140-6 event which imparts tolerance to glyphosate and at least one ALS-inhibiting herbicide. The maize plant harboring the DP-098140-6 event at the recited chromosomal location comprises genomic/transgene junctions having at least the polynucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO:5 and/or 6. The characterization of the genomic insertion site of the DP-098140-6 event provides for an enhanced breeding efficiency and enables the use of molecular markers to track the transgene insert in the breeding populations and progeny thereof. Various methods and compositions for the identification, detection, and use of the maize DP-098140-6 events are provided.

Abstract: Compositions and methods related to transgenic glyphosate/ALS inhibitor-tolerant soybean plants are provided. Specifically, soybean plants having a 3560.4.3.5 event which imparts tolerance to glyphosate and at least one ALS-inhibiting herbicide are provided. The soybean plant harboring the 3560.4.3.5 event at the recited chromosomal location comprises genomic/transgene junctions having at least the polynucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO:10 and/or 11. The characterization of the genomic insertion site of the 3560.4.3.5 event provides for an enhanced breeding efficiency and enables the use of molecular markers to track the transgene insert in the breeding populations and progeny thereof. Various methods and compositions for the identification, detection, and use of the soybean 3560.4.3.5 events are provided.
