Abstract: An improved system of interlocking building blocks is provided. The system of interlocking building blocks includes a top block component and a bottom block component that are removably attached to each other to form a modular block with a hollow interior. The hollow interior can interchangeably receive a number of components, for example motors, electronics, and batteries. The exterior of the modular block includes a system of octagonal openings that are shaped to receive an octagonal connector for coupling adjacent modular blocks, or for receipt of flange bearing for an axle for example. Collectively, interlocking blocks can be joined together to build and create a generally limitless number of robust and modular structures and devices.

Abstract: Vectors and methods are provided for introducing genetic material into cells of a chicken or other avian species. More particularly, vectors and methods are provided for transferring a transgene to an embryonic chicken cell, so as to create a transgenic hen wherein the transgene is expressed in the hen's oviduct and the transgene product is secreted in the hen's eggs and/or those of her offspring. In a preferred embodiment, the transgene product is secreted in the egg white.

Abstract: A radio controlled robotic toy having a main body chassis with at least two middle legs and at least two corner legs attached to the chassis, the legs being interconnected and driven by a linkage drive arm which is, in turn, operated by a radio-controlled electric motor which has computer electronics and software to control and cause movement of the legs for propelling the toy forward and backward. A six-legged walking animatronic robot toy is one of the preferred embodiments, including a moving head with jaw pincers, six moving legs, which yields a versatile, durable, speedy robot toy.
