Abstract: A machine system includes a machine having a work tool assembly coupled to a back machine end and including a linkage adjustable among raised, lowered, and middle linkage positions in a vertical operating range. A work tool coupled to the linkage has an angular orientation dependent upon the position of the linkage and is pivotable at a greater pivoting ratio to the raised linkage position and a reduced pivoting ratio to the lowered linkage position. The configuration enables maintaining the work tool at a desired service orientation in a ground-penetrating portion of the vertical operating range, whilst tucking the work tool at the raised linkage position to facilitate loading of the machine onto a trailer.

Abstract: Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for securely transferring a locked container from a primary vault to a secondary vault. In one implementation, a triggering event corresponding to a transfer of a first locked container from the primary vault to the secondary vault is detected. The first locked container is detected in the primary vault, and a second locked container is detected in the secondary vault. A transfer time for the transfer is determined based on when the second locked container is detected in the secondary vault. The transfer is validated as a compliant transfer when the second locked container is identified as the first locked container and the transfer time is within a time tolerance band.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is Differential Subclone Eradication and Resistance Analysis (DSER), a method developed to identify molecular targets for improved therapy by direct comparison of genomic features of eradicated and resistant subclones in pre-and post-treatment samples from a patient with BRCA2-deficient metastatic prostate cancer. FANCI and EYA4 were identified as candidate DNA repair-related targets for converting subclones from resistant to eradicable, and RNAi-mediated depletion of FANCI confirmed it as a potential target. The EYA4 alteration was associated with adjacent L1 transposon insertion during cancer evolution upon treatment. L1 activation was inhibited by the antiretroviral drug azidothymidine. In conclusion DSER provides an informative intermediate step toward effective precision cancer medicine, especially in cases with dramatic but temporary metastatic tumor regression.

Abstract: A computer-implemented system and method for staged resource querying addresses limitations of traditional file systems, which provide a flexible, scalable framework for organizing, managing, and querying diverse digital resources across multiple providers. The method receives a query specifying a sequence of stage types, each defining processing and grouping of items. It executes operations to process input items through these stages, creating a dynamic graph structure of grouped output items. This includes taking items from a resource iterator, processing them through specified stages, and organizing results into groups. The method enables incremental processing of resources, allowing efficient handling of large datasets and complex queries. It provides mechanisms for propagating items through the stage graph, offering fine-grained control over resource processing and grouping at each stage.

Abstract: A cable gripping assembly. The gripping assembly has two jaw assemblies for gripping and pulling a cable. Each jaw assembly has a jaw block with a tapered cavity, and a jaw subassembly which fits within the tapered cavity to grip a cable when frictional forces, caused by a hydraulic cylinder or other actuator, force the jaws into the tapered cavity. The jaw subassembly has a guide plate, which carries pins affixed to the jaws. The guide plate is ordinarily allowed to move the pins along angled slots in a jaw plate. However, when actuated by a plunger, the guide plate and pins are forced to a widest point of the angled slots, maintaining the jaws in an open position, allowing for easy removal of the strand from the gripping assembly.
