Abstract: The exemplary embodiments provide a resilient integrated circuit. An exemplary IC comprises a plurality of composite circuit elements, a state machine element (SME), and a plurality of communication elements. Each composite circuit element comprises an element interface and a selected circuit element which may vary by element type, and which may be configurable. The state machine element assigns various functions based on element type, such as assigning a first configuration to a first element type, assigning a second configuration to a second element type, and providing a first data link for the corresponding assignments. In response to detection of a fault or failure, the state machine element re-assigns the first configuration to another composite circuit element and creates a second data link for performance of the same function.

Abstract: A lightweight, portable post-anchor is readily secured to the ground without the use of tools, and is readily removed for re-use elsewhere, being used with a beach-style umbrella, and/or a table. It can support citronella torches, games nets and signage. The high strength plastic anchor has integral spikes projecting downwardly, and reinforced upper and lower surfaces to provide end loading spaces, for a users foot to force the spikes into the ground. The gusset-reinforced base plate is reinforced with ribs under the loading spaces, and an upstanding gusset-reinforced tube to hold a beach umbrella and/or a table; and to serve as a lever for removing the anchor from the ground.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods and compositions for identifying stem cells and/or cancer cells in non-human animals. The compositions include vectors comprising elements suitable for integration into a licensing factor gene such that a cell harboring the chromosome into which the vector elements have integrated expresses a reporter transgene. The methods comprise the detection of stem and/or cancer cells by detecting the expression of the reporter transgene.

Abstract: A temporary vent opening cover is disclosed which is securable over a vent opening in a floor or other surface during building construction to prevent debris from entering the vent opening and accumulating in duct work associated therewith. The cover includes a generally flat cover plate which is sized and shaped to cover the vent opening. The cover plate is spaced outwardly from the surface when the vent opening cover is secured over the vent opening. A plurality of air passages allow air to flow past the cover plate between the duct work and the workspace. A layer of air filter material covers the air passages and prevents debris from passing therethrough. A portion of cover plate may be dedicated to the display of promotional indicia.
