20090206537 | CLAMP WITH MOVEABLE GRIPPING PINS - A clamp device has a pair of clamping members that are reciprocally movable between clamping and unclamping positions so as to respectively clamp and unclamp objects therebetween. One or both of these of clamping members includes a plurality of separate and movable gripping members extending therefrom for engaging objects during clamping. When clamping an object, these gripping members are moved away from the clamping member that they extend from to a position defined by these gripping members abutting the object. | 08-20-2009 |

20110146098 | COLLAPSIBLE DRYING BAG - The present document describes a bag for storing and drying garments or sports equipment. The bag comprises an external envelope substantially made of flexible resistant material. The bag further comprises a frame supporting the external envelope and comprising frame sections capable of adopting a retracted position and an extended position in which the frame occupies more space than in the retracted position. The bag further comprises a tubular structure for hanging the garments or sports equipment and through which air can be blown for drying the hung garments or sports equipment. The tubular structure is mounted on the frame and comprises tube sections capable of adopting a retracted position and an extended position in which the tubular structure occupies more space than in the retracted position. | 06-23-2011 |

20080233574 | Map-Based Genome Mining Method for Identifying Regulatory Loci Controlling the Level of Gene Transcripts and Products - The invention pertains to a method for identifying one or more regions within a genome of an organism of interest that mediate the expression of one or more genes of interest. The method comprises identifying a first and a second organism of interest, the first organism of interest is characterized by exhibiting a measurable response to an environmental stimulus, or otherwise, exhibiting a phenotype associated with differential gene expression associated with a process of interest. The second organism of interest is characterized by lacking or not exhibit as strong a response to the stimulus as that observed within the first organism of interest, or it exhibits a different phenotype compared with that of the first organism of interest, wherein the different phenotype is associated with the process of interest, or it exhibits a phenotype of interest that segregates when compared with the first organism of interest, or a combination thereof. The first and second organisms of interest are crossed to produce a population of segregated progeny and RNA is extracted from each of the segregated progeny. The level of gene expression for one or more genes of interest that are associated with the response to an environmental stimulus, or process of interest is quantified. A linkage map of the segregated progeny using one or more markers is prepared, and the relationship between said one or more markers on the linkage map and the gene expression of the one or more genes of interest is determined and one or more quantitative trait loci (QTL) identified. This method also pertains to identifying one or more QTLs associated with one or more genes of interest in segregated progeny that are subjected a desired environmental stimulus. Furthermore, this method may be used for the identification of one or more QTL corresponding to a transcription factor or any factor controlling the expression of one or more genes of interest, and the one or more genes located at the one or more QTL may be isolated and characterized. | 09-25-2008 |

20090137817 | SPATIALLY-DEFINED MACROCYCLIC COMPOUNDS USEFUL FOR DRUG DISCOVERY - Novel spatially-defined macrocyclic compounds containing specific conformational control elements are disclosed. Libraries of these macrocycles are then used to select one or more macrocycle species that exhibit a specific interaction with a particular biological target. In particular, compounds according to the invention are disclosed as agonists or antagonists of a mammalian motilin receptor and a mammalian ghrelin receptor. | 05-28-2009 |
20110105389 | Macrocyclic Ghrelin Receptor Antagonists and Inverse Agonists and Methods of Using the Same - The present invention provides novel conformationally-defined macrocyclic compounds that have been demonstrated to be selective modulators of the ghrelin receptor (GRLN, growth hormone secretagogue receptor, GHS-R1a and subtypes, isoforms and/or variants thereof). Methods of synthesizing the novel compounds are also described herein. These compounds are useful as antagonists or inverse agonists of the ghrelin receptor and as medicaments for treatment and prevention of a range of medical conditions including, but not limited to, metabolic and/or endocrine disorders, obesity and obesity-associated disorders, appetite or eating disorders, addictive disorders, cardiovascular disorders, gastrointestinal disorders, genetic disorders, hyperproliferative disorders, central nervous system disorders and inflammatory disorders. | 05-05-2011 |

20100031807 | Chambered Electric Guitar - A chambered electric guitar according to an illustrative embodiment of the present invention includes at least one tone chamber that is linked to the external world only via a pick-up cavity of the guitar. Vibration of the strings of the guitar generates a vibration of the air in the tone chamber. This air vibration moves the air in and out of the tone chamber via the pick-up cavity. This air movement in the vicinity of the pick-up moves the pick-up as a whole and/or moves some portions of the pick-up. This pick-up movement changes the sound of the guitar. | 02-11-2010 |
