Abstract: The present invention allows a user to enjoyably select a music content, which meets the user's potential likes, for a short period of time without stressing the user. The present invention selects a group of music contents, which should be regarded as objects of reproduction, from among numerous contents, sequentially reproduces and outputs hook-portion data items (A1, B1, and C1) of the group of music contents, inserts a hook switching sound effect, which is expected to exert a user-desired effect, between adjoining ones of the hook-portion data items (A1, B1, and C1), and thus performs partial reproduction processing on the hook portions of the group of music contents.

Abstract: A photo-curable resin composition comprising a silphenylene-bearing polymer having a Mw of 3,000-500,000 can be processed to form patterned films having a widely varying thickness from submicron to more than 20 ?m. The cured films have good adhesion to substrates, heat resistance, electrical insulation and chemical resistance.

Abstract: An information processing device includes: a main unit to be held; a display unit provided on the main unit such that an information display screen is positioned on a front face thereof, to display information on the information display screen; a touch position detection unit to detect a touch position on the information display screen, and generate touch position detection data represented in terms of coordinates based on two axes intersecting at the detected touch position; and a control unit to display predetermined information on the information display screen, in the event of detecting that the touch position on the information display screen is being continually displaced from within a predetermined region on the information display screen in a predetermined first diagonal direction as to two directions following the two axes, based on the touch position detection data generated by the touch position detection unit.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method of screening genes based on expression information differing from gene expression information obtainable by DNA chip/DNA microarray techniques. The method of screening genes comprises performing in situ hybridization in respect of a tissue or cell sample from an organism using a probe which specifically hybridizes with mRNA and/or expression sequence tag being a product of gene expression, and examining localization of the mRNA and/or expression sequence tag in the tissue or cell.
