Chimeric mice were constructed by transferring human CD34+ cells (hematopoietic stem cells) into a SCID mouse. In these chimeric mice, hematopoietic stem cells persistently differentiated into immune cells. Consequently, the chimeric mice can be immunized over a long time and enable one to obtain human antibodies against arbitrary antigens containing a human self-component.

Provided is a nonvolatile memory device including a phase-change memory configured with cross-point memory cells in which memory elements formed of a phase-change material and selection elements formed with a diode are combined. A memory cell is configured with a memory element formed of a phase-change material and a selection element formed with a diode having a stacked structure of a first polycrystalline silicon film, a second polycrystalline silicon film, and a third polycrystalline silicon film. The memory cells are arranged at intersection points of a plurality of first metal wirings extending along a first direction with a plurality of third metal wirings extending along a second direction orthogonal to the first direction. An interlayer film is formed between adjacent selection elements and between adjacent memory elements, and voids are formed in the interlayer film provided between the adjacent memory elements.

A fiber or filament which is formed from ingredients comprising (a) at least one fiber-forming thermoplastic polymer and (b) at least one polybrominated anionic styrenic polymer is provided. The polybrominated anionic styrenic polymer has a bromine content of at least about 50 wt %, and a GPC weight average molecular weight in the range of about 5000 to about 40,000, or a GPC weight average molecular weight of at least about 600,000. When the fiber-forming thermoplastic polymer is a polyester, the polybrominated anionic styrenic polymer is present in a flame resistant or flame retardant amount. When the fiber-forming thermoplastic polymer is a polyamide, the polybrominated anionic styrenic polymer is at least about 2 wt % of the fiber or filament. When the fiber-forming thermoplastic polymer is a polyolefin, at least one synergist is present and the polybrominated anionic styrenic polymer is no more than about 15 wt % of the fiber or filament.

The invention relates to systems and methods for filing and monitoring electronic claim submissions in proceedings involving a large number of claimants, such as securities class action lawsuits, estate dissolutions, arbitrations, and bankruptcies. The systems and methods create an easy-to-use and convenient way for institutions and individual claimants to register their claim relief upon judgment or settlement.

This invention provides a stabilizing system and method for two-wheeled vehicles that affords the rider no restriction on the full range of movements (banks, leans, etc.) common to bicycles, but that provides greater stability during turns and other maneuvers so that an unintentional bank or tilt (potentially causing a fall) is less likely, even at relatively slow speeds and startup. A rotating mass of predetermined mass-value and radial mass-distribution is provided coaxially with the front axle. The mass is supported on bearings so as to freewheel with respect to the rotation of the front wheel. As such it can be induced to spin significantly faster than the front wheel thereby generating a gyroscopic effect at the front wheel about the axle. This gyroscopic effect influences the steering of the wheel by the rider. Due to precession, the wheel tends to follow any excessive bank by the vehicle, ensuring that the rider can “steer-out-of” an unintended tilt or bank. Likewise, the gyroscopic effect limits the rider's ability to execute excessive steering, thereby preventing jackknife movements. The mass can be an electric-motor-driven flywheel within a shell housing that includes a battery, control system and drive motor. The drive motor engages a surface of the flywheel with a drive tire in a resilient manner to reduce potential damage to the motor.

A sheath liquid for a particle analyzer used to analyze particles contained in a sample is described. The sheath liquid includes water and a refractive-index adjustment agent with glycerols and / or sulfate. A method for producing the sheath liquid and a method for analyzing particles using the sheath liquid are also described.

A light card is provided having a switch bar that avoids the need to bend an LED lead for turning the LED light on. The light card can be implemented in a credit or debit card size, with a viewing lens, or used as a key ring holder.
