Abstract: This invention relates to novel pharmaceutical compositions comprising a solid dispersion of the compound of Formula I below, to processes for preparing these novel pharmaceutical compositions and to their use for treating hyper-proliferative disorders, such as cancer, either as a sole agent or in combination with other therapies.

Abstract: A cream composition for the topical application of ibuprofen to prevent secondary burn ischemia, inducing changes in the dynamics of blood flow in the region of application. The cream composition includes approximately 0.5 g of 1% ibuprofen cream. A single application of ibuprofen cream to the surface of a skin burn restores vascular patency within the dermis beneath the burn cream to a burn site thwarts burn induced secondary progressive ischemia and the expansion of dermal necrosis.

Abstract: A method and compositions for inhibiting excessive scar formation and adhesions by administering to a patient in need thereof an effective amount of an angiogenesis inhibitor. In the preferred embodiment, the angiogenesis inhibitor is selective, such as a fumagillol derivative like 0-chloroacetylcarbamoyl-Fumagillol (TNP-470, TAP Pharmaceuticals), thalidomide, or a selective drug having more than one activity, such as minocycline or penicilliamine which also have antibiotic activity. Less selective compounds can also be used, such as the cytokine IL12. Patients to be treated include those having experienced trauma, surgical intervention, burns, and other types of injuries. The inhibitor is administered in an amount effective to decrease excessive scarring, defined as formation of high density tissue including cells and connective tissue, without preventing normal wound closure. The inhibitors can be administered systemically and/or locally or topically, as needed.

Abstract: The disclosed invention is a crystalline microporous polymer and process for preparing a low density microporous polymer comprising, providing a mixture of a polymer and a polymer solvent, the mixture capable of achieving a supercritical condition; applying pressure, at a temperature sufficient for the mixture to attain a super critical condition; cooling the supercritical solution that results and precipitating a microporous crystalline polymer product.

Abstract: For attaching a decorative skirt about the peripheral edge of a banquet table, a one-use disposable plastic hanger advantageously coated during a production run on a single side over side and top length portions in surrounding relation about a pivotal tab with adhesive, such that in use adhesive on the noted length portions are adhesively attached to the table edge and the tab, after a 270 degree pivotal transverse, is in an outwardly facing relation from the table edge and thus in position to complete an adhesive attachment to the decorative skirt.

Abstract: A method of attaching a decorative skirt about a banquet tablecloth using spring clips with Velcro patches in which initially the spring clips in spaced apart relation are engaged to extend radially from the tablecloth but are then pivoted, as allowed by the flexibility of the cloth, into a vertical plane in which the Velcro patches thereon face outwardly of the table and are readily attached to a cooperating Velcro strip on the decorative skirt.

Abstract: An implant injector for animals is adjustable for implant insertion depth. The distance, that the injector needle or cannula, extends past the nose of the injector is adjustable. The insertion depth adjustment is accomplished by moving the nose of the injector relative to the tip of the cannula that extends past the nose. In addition to adjusting the insertion depth, the cannula or needle, may also be rotated to a plurality of positions relative to the injector handle.A spring loaded plunger, when released by a release button, will push the implant out the end of the cannula as the operator withdraws the cannula from the animal. The release button is designed as a safety trigger to avoid premature activation of the plunger during insertion of the needle.Needles, or cannulas of various diameters and lengths, may be interchanged in the injector.

Abstract: For attaching a decorative skirt from an edge of a banquet table to mask the legs or otherwise enhance the appearance thereof, the addition to clips which are clipped to the table edge of a first velcro strip which engages a second velcro strip on the skirt, the first velcro strip also preventing, because the clips are attached to it, the inadvertent misplacement of the clips when the skirt is removed for cleaning or the like.

Abstract: Photoconductive organic polymers useful in the preparation of photodetectors and photoconductive devices comprise a transrich polyphenylacetylene. The photoconductive properties may be further enhanced by the addition of an electron-acceptor dopant, and sensitized to selected spectral regions by the addition of a selected dye.

Abstract: A vehicular hazard warning system has an indicator on the vehicle that is energizable to yield a warning signal. The onset of a hazardous condition is detected and, as a result, a control signal is developed which has a variable parameter the amount of which is proportional to the degree of hazard represented by the condition. In response to that condition, the indicator is energized in a manner which quantitatively has a magnitude that is proportional to the amount of hazard. The system primarily responds to abrupt deceleration. It also preferably is responsive to such other inputs as brake pressure, wheel speed change, inertial forces and operator-controlled pedal movement.
