20150058059 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR FACILITATING AND COORDINATING ONLINE AND OFFLINE RELATIONSHIPS - A date posting search is conducted and a first plurality of users are identified to a second user. The posting of a first user is provided to the second user in association with an invitation control. If the invitation control is activated, an invitation is presented to the first user. If the first user accepts the invitation, the second user is notified. A first calendar entry is generated for a calendar of the first user, providing the first user with access to a time and calendar day for the date, at least one image of the second user, and an identifier associated with the second user. A second calendar entry is generated for a calendar of the second user, wherein the second calendar entry provides the second user with access to the time and calendar day for the date, at least one image of the first user, and an identifier associated with the first user. | 02-26-2015 |
20150058235 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR FACILITATING AND COORDINATING ONLINE AND OFFLINE RELATIONSHIPS - A posting module enables a user to specify information for a first date posting, including a first date venue. Optionally, a database is accessed and information related to the first date venue is received. The first date posting is optionally populated with information specified by the first user and at least a portion of the information received via the database. A search engine may identify the first date posting at least partly in response to an action of a second user, and provide the first date posting for display to the second user. A module is configured to cause an invitation control to be displayed to the second user in association with the first date posting, detect the second user activating the invitation control, and cause an invitation, to go on a date corresponding to the first date posting of the first user, to be presented to the first user. | 02-26-2015 |

20090134267 | Unwinding device for winding drum - An unwinding device for wound rolls includes a bearing element, a first support element and a second support element mounted on the bearing element. The first and second support elements are adapted to rotatably hold the wound roll on opposed sides. The first support element and the second support element are movable along the bearing element with respect to one another, such that a distance between the first support element and the second support element changes. The unwinding device also includes a drive mechanism adapted to move the first support element and the second support element along the bearing element. The drive mechanism includes a tensioner movable along the bearing element, and a first engagement member disposed on the first support element. The first engagement member is adapted to releasably lock the first support element to the tensioner. | 05-28-2009 |

20090252584 | Tool for Handling of Loads - An implement for manipulating and loading containers. A lifting carriage has a total width smaller than a door opening of a container to be loaded. A guide surface extends over the total width of the lifting carriage. Two fork arms are movable and supported by the guide surface. The fork arms have a narrow position for the manipulation of loads, in which a total width of the arms is smaller than the total width of the lifting carriage. Two bearings move the arms. Each bearing is provided between each arm and the guide surface. The fork arms also have a wide position for manipulating containers and for fork pockets of a container, in which the total width of the arms is greater than the total width of the lifting carriage. In another example, two transfer carriages are provided, which are coupled to the lifting carriage and are movable and supported by the guide surface. | 10-08-2009 |

20110217259 | IL-16 as a target for diagnosis and therapy of hematological malignancies and solid tumors - The present invention relates to the field of diagnosis and therapy of hematological malignancies, such as multiple myeloma, as well as solid tumors based on cytokine interleukin-16 (IL-16) and agents specifically targeting this antigen or cells expressing the same, e.g., antibodies. The inventors were able to prove that IL-16 is expressed and secreted at high levels by myeloma cells. Most importantly, the inventors have demonstrated for the first time that IL-16 supports the proliferation of the malignant cells. Therefore, this cytokine represents a particularly advantageous target in cancer therapy and diagnosis. | 09-08-2011 |

20150034647 | SEALING DISC FOR INDUCTION SEALING OF A CONTAINER - A sealing disc for closing mouths of containers has a foil for inductively introducing heat into the sealing disc. The sealing disc has an edge region. A sealing layer is provided on the side of the foil that is to face the interior of the container, for sealing tight the edge region of the sealing disc on the mouth of the container. One or more layers are located on the side of the foil that is remote from the sealing layer. Further, a hand grip is formed as part of the sealing disc and serves to open the mouth of the container that is closed by the sealing disc. On the side that is remote from the sealing layer, the layer or layers are provided with weakening lines for forming an outline of the hand grip. The weakening lines lead into the edge region of the sealing disc. | 02-05-2015 |
