RESULTS OF dw FINDING METHODS ON NON-ULTRA WALKS Fig. 9 shows the results of the proposed methodologies for finding dw in all three ad- dressed Xxxxxx cases. Recall that dw should tend to one in each of these cases. The limiting moment reaches a stable value almost immedi- ately for both the Xxxxxx walk and the cyclic Xxxxxx walk. The hierarchical Xxxxxx walk does not converge completely to one, which can be attributed to us not probing far enough in time for the lattice to appear e↵ectively con- stant. Also pictured in Fig. 9 is dw as calcu- lated using scaling over a variety of domains. Here we can see just how sensitive the scal- ing algorithm is to domain choice. The algo- rithm still finds values for dw in the neighbor- hood of one, but not in a very distinguishable way. Had we not known what dw to expect

FIG. 4 is a fragmentary side view with parts in section and parts in elevation, showing the attachment of the mounting bracket to the steering column and to the instrument panel. FIG. 5 is a view taken on the line 5--5 in FIG. 4. -3- Detailed Description of the Preferred Embodiment Referring now more particularly to the drawings, the bracket 10 rigidly secures the steering column 12 against vibration during normal vehicle operation and also prevents the steering column, in a frontal 5 impact, from rising up from the illustrated position (FIGS. 1 and 4). The steering column 12, as illustrated, is inclined upwardly and rearwardly at a predetermined angle and includes a steering shaft 14 extending lengthwise within a tubular jacket 16. A steering wheel 17 is mounted on the upper end of the steering shaft 14. A collar 18 on the steering column jacket 16 is secured to the instrument panel 20, and the 10 bracket 10 is secured to the instrument panel 20 and to the cowl plenum 22 of the upper dash panel 24, all as more fully described hereinafter. The bracket 10 includes a molded frame made of a suitable plastic material, preferably nylon reinforced with glass fibers. The frame has laterally spaced apart side braces 30 and 32, a transverse front brace 34, a transverse intermediate brace 36, and an X-shaped 15 truss 37 (FIGS. 1-3 and 5). The side braces 30 and 32 are preferably in the form of horizontally elongated, vertically disposed panels that flare apart slightly in a rearward direction. The front brace 34 is in the form of a bar that extends horizontally and has its opposite ends integrally molded to the terminal portions 35 at the front ends of the respective side braces. The intermediate brace 36 is in the form of a vertical panel, the opposite ends of which are integrally molded to the side braces intermediate the front ends and rear ends thereof. The truss 37 has crossing legs 48 and 50 which extend diagonally between 5 the side braces 30 and 32 between the intermediate brace 36 and the terminal portions 42 at the rear ends of the side braces. The ends of the leg 48 are integrally molded to the terminal portion 42 at the rear end of the side brace 30 and to the side brace 32 at approximately the point where the side brace 32 and the intermediate brace 36 are joined. The ends of the leg 50 are integrally molded to 10 the terminal portion 42 at the rear end of the side brace 32 and to the side brace 30 at approximately the point where the side brace 30 and the i...
FIG. 4, a voice cOlllmand zone is established 300. This zone may be the interior of a vehicle 310 a hospital room 320, any type of human inhabitable dwellings. An array of voice command instructions 330 are established and received by l1icrophone means 340. The microphones 350 may comprise two general types: omni directional 360 and unidirectional '0. In the case of omni directional microphones 360 sounds from in a 360 degree sweep are recorded. However, in the se of unidirectional microphones 370 a single point is recorded. Accordingly, an RF or IR transmitter may be placed 011 ; person 380 sought to be recorded and an RF or IR acquisition means 390 dynamically tracks the location of the litter 380 and points to the unidirectional microphone 370 towards the appropriate target. A voice command initiates a ITesponding SMTP command 400 to generate a Dew message or replyto an existing message. Audio recording is .tiated responsive to a record command 410 and the audio recording is encapsulated 420 into an email attachment which then transmitted 430 to a predetermined email address.

FIG. 4. hu5A8 inhibits syncytium formation in HIV-1-infected cells as well as mu5A8. H9 cells chronically infected with HIV-1 were cocultured with uninfected C8166 cells in the presence of varying concentrations of mu5A8 (F), hu5A8 (..), or a control murine immunoglobulin ( ). Syncytia were counted in each well and expressed as percentage inhibition by comparing values with control immunoglobulin-treated wells.
FIG. 8. Monkeys develop an anti-hu5A8 response that is predominantly antiidiotype. (A) Two normal rhesus monkeys that received 3 mg of hu5A8 per kilogram body weight developed antibodies that recognized hu5A8 approximately 2 weeks after a single intravenous injection. Monkey 1 (G); monkey 2 ( ). (B) Fine specificity of antibodies in the same two hu5A8-treated monkeys. Plasma recognized hu5A8 and parental mu5A8, but not another human IgG4. All values correspond to the highest dilution that gave a positive signal as measured by ELISA.
FIG. 2 shows a scatter plot giving the relationship of the observed 1-minute average wind speed to the simultaneously reported gust wind speed. The ratio of the gust wind speed to the 1-minute average is approximately 1.52. This ratio is higher than the standard presented in the US Army Corps of Engineers Shore Protection Manual. The ratio assumed for most locations is 1.242. This indicates that Ketchikan has higher gust wind speeds in relationship to the average wind speeds than is expected at other locations. The annualized joint probability table for wind speed and direction for all the data years is shown in Fig. 3. The annual extreme value distribution is plotted in Fig. 4. The annual cumulative distribution is shown in Fig. 5. The Weibell plots of the cumulative probability of wind speed by month are shown in Figs. 6 - 17. The monthly wind speed statistics are given in Table I. The statistical and return wind speeds appear to be less than expected at this location. This is often the case when long time series wind speed measurements and professional observations are analysed. The apparent bias that high winds are common can be attributed to; local geographic and architectural effects, the tendency of individuals to remember only to most severe cases and to the relationship between averaged wind speeds and gust wind speeds. Applying a multiplier of 1.52 to the return period and statistical level wind speeds changes ones perception of the severity of the conditions. The following table gives the annual statistics and return period winds for both the one minute average and gust wind speed. The 95th percentile wind gust is 25.8 knots (29.7mph). The five year return period wind gust is 76 knots (87.5 mph).
