20130060591 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CREATING ELECTRONIC BUSINESS REFERRALS WITH CLOUD COMPUTING - A method and system for creating electronic business referrals with cloud computing. Existing clients, customers or patient of a provider of professional services request a unique referral identifier tracking code (e.g., a unique QR code, etc.). The unique referral identifier tracking code is used by others as an automatic referral method to automatically schedule and appointment at a provider of the professional services, automatically record a referral discount for fee charged by the provider of the professional services and automatically record a referral credit for the existing client, customer or patient at provider of the professional services. The automatic referral method is completed with an electronic referral application in a cloud computing application when the unique referral identifier tracking code is received anywhere on a cloud computing network using less bandwidth and less processing cycles via the cloud communications network than via a non-cloud communications network. | 03-07-2013 |

20150043743 | HIGH FIDELITY BLAST HEARING PROTECTION - An improved hearing protection device intended to be inserted into an external auditory meatus of a user, having a housing structure, a passive tuning element, and a passive, nonlinear acoustic filter. The tuning element and the acoustic filter may be supported in series by the housing structure. The tuning element may be or include a diaphragm, a resonator, or both. The housing structure may support a diaphragm of the tuning element at its circumference, and may provide cavities on both sides of the diaphragm. In some embodiments electronic components are included in the hearing protection device to counteract insertion loss provided by the passive element, and restore natural hearing for low to moderate sound pressure levels, Communications devices may also be incorporated into the hearing protection device. The combination of a simple, low cost amplifier circuit, passive tuning element and nonlinear acoustic filter of some embodiments of the present invention achieve a low cost yet sophisticated ability to react to impulse noise without the need for a microprocessor or complex electronics. Furthermore, the configuration reduces power consumption and, therefore, increases service life or decreases battery size/capacity, and results in low electronic self-noise allowing the user to maintain situational awareness, | 02-12-2015 |

20130225788 | CURABLE RESIN COMPOSITION AND SHORT-CURE METHOD - Disclosed herein is a method for utilizing the exothermic energy generated by a low temperature cure reaction to access a high-temperature cure reaction, which is otherwise energetically inaccessible at a chosen tool temperature, thereby producing a cured resin matrix with properties closely matching to those produced via high-temperature cure reactions but achieved via a short cure time and low cure temperature. Also disclosed is a short-cure resin composition containing: (a) at least one multifunctional epoxy resin having an epoxy functionality of greater than 1; (b) a hardener composition containing (i) at least one aliphatic or cycloaliphatic amine curing agent having one or more amino groups per molecule; (ii) at least one aromatic amine curing agent having one or more amino groups per molecule; and optionally, (iii) an imidazole as curing accelerator. The improved properties of this resin composition include being curable at a temperature of ≦120° C. for a time period of less than 10 minutes to achieve a degree of cure higher than that derived from the same composition with just (i) aliphatic/cycloaliphatic amine or (ii) aromatic amine in isolation. | 08-29-2013 |

20120309734 | COMBRETASTATIN DERIVATIVES AND USES THEREFOR - Cancer is one of the major causes of death worldwide. Although many advances have been made in the treatment and management of the disease, the existence of chemotherapy-resistance means there is still a great need to develop new strategies and drugs for its treatment. Provided herein are synthetic derivatives of combretastatin A-4, in particular those in which the aromatic rings are locked into a non-isomerisable active conformation, thus resulting in improved, stable compounds. The novel compounds are structurally related to combretastatin A-4 (CA-4) and lock the rings into the known active conformation by means of a four membered nitrogen containing heterocyclic ring, such as a beta-lactam ring, incorporated into the standard CA-4 structure. The compounds exhibit potent anti-cancer activity. | 12-06-2012 |

20140357682 | ANDROGEN RECEPTOR LIGANDS - Non ligand binding pocket antagonists for the human androgen receptor. The androgen receptor (AR) is a member of the Nuclear Receptor (NR) family and its role is to modulate the biological effects of the endogenous androgens, testosterone (tes) and dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Synthetic androgens and anti-androgens have therapeutic value in the treatment of various androgen dependent conditions, from regulation of male fertility to prostate cancer. Current treatment of prostate cancer (PCa) typically involves administration of ‘classical’ antiandrogens, competitive inhibitors of natural AR ligands, DHT and tes, for the ligand binding pocket (LBP) in the C-terminal ligand binding domain (LBD) of the AR. However, prolonged LBP-targeting can often lead to androgen resistance and alternative therapies and therapeutic strategies are urgently required. Disclosed herein are a class of non-steroidal, small molecule AR antagonists which inhibit the transcriptional activity of the AR by non LBP-mediated modulation. The novel class reported demonstrates full (‘true’) antagonism in AR with low micromolar potency, high selectivity over both the Estrogen Receptors alpha and beta (ERα and ERβ) and the Glucocorticoid Receptor (GR) and only micromolar partial antagonism in the Progesterone Receptor (PR). Data provide compelling evidence for such non-LBP intervention as an alternative approach to classical PCa therapy. (Formula I). | 12-04-2014 |
