Abstract:
There is provided a compound which is (a) a pyrimidine sulfonamide of formula (I) or (b) a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, crystalline forms of the compound, processes for obtaining the compound, pharmaceutical intermediates used in the manufacture of the compound, and pharmaceutical compositions containing the compound. The compound is useful in the treatment of a disease/condition in which modulation of chemokine receptor activity is beneficial.
Abstract:
The application relates to a curtain assembly and components for a curtain assembly. The assembly has a track and a series of hangers and/or hanger assemblies on the track. Most of the hangers can translate on a locus of the track. A pendent flexible sheet as a curtain is supported directly, or via a band, from the hangers and/or hanger assemblies. There are also links of at least some adjacent hangers and/or hanger assemblies, as pairs. The links being able to control a maximum spacing of each pair of hangers on the track. The undulations of the curtain in a direction parallel to the track locus are wave like with a hanger and/or hanger assemblies between the wave peaks.
Abstract:
The probe station (10) includes the chuck (12) that supports the electrical device (14) to be probed by the probe apparatus (16) that extends through an opening in the platen (18), an outer shield box (24) provides sufficient space for the chuck (12) to be moved laterally by positioner (22), because the chuck (12) may freely move within the outer shield box (24), a suspended member (26) electrically interconnected to a guard potential may readily position above the chuck (12).
Abstract:
The apparatuses and methods herein facilitate generation of energy-related revenue for an energy customer of an electricity supplier, for a system that includes an energy storage asset. The apparatuses and methods herein can be used to generate operating schedules for a controller of the energy storage asset. When implemented, the generated operating schedules facilitates derivation of the energy-related revenue, over a time period T , associated with operation of the at least one energy storage asset according to the generated operating schedule. The energy-related revenue available to the energy customer over the time period T is based at least in part on a wholesale electricity market.

Abstract:
An apparatus (10) for determining the weight distribution between front and rear portions of a foot (24) of an individual standing on a surface (26). The apparatus (10) comprises a compressible elongate body member (11) which has an outer resilient housing (12) and at least one inner chamber (14). The at least one inner chamber (14) includes inflation means (22) located therein and the body member (11) is configurable to be positioned between the arch of an individual's foot (24) and the surface (26). The inflation means (22) is inflatable such that the body member (11) provides a pivot point between the front and rear portions (28, 30) of the individual's foot (24).
Abstract:
The present invention relates generally to methods for activating and expanding cells, and more particularly, to a novel method to activate and/or stimulate cells that maximizes the expansion of such cells to achieve dramatically high densities. In the various embodiments, cells are activated and expanded to very high densities in a short period of time. In certain embodiments, cells are activated and expanded to very high numbers of cells in a short period of time. Compositions of cells activated and expanded by the methods herein are further provided.
