Abstract: Carnitines are nutraceuticals with indications in treating a variety of mental health disorders. A metabolomics-guided bioprocess method is presented to produce longer chain fatty acid esters of carnitines such as polyunsaturated fatty acid esters including eicosapentaenoyl-L-carnitine and/or docosahexaenyl-L-carnitine in germinating plant seeds. The resulting products from the plant seeds are used as a natural nutritional source of powerful human antioxidants.

Abstract: A system and method for recycling plastics. The system and method recover materials such as hydrocarbon gases, liquid hydrocarbon distillates, various polymers and/or monomers used to produce the original plastics. The system and method allow about one unit of input of energy input to the plastic recycler to be used to create one or more gaseous components and one or more liquid distillate components from a plastic that is being recycled. The one or more gaseous components and one or more liquid distillate components produce about one corresponding unit of useable output energy recovered from the recycling of the plastic.
Abstract: A method and system for providing multiple graphical user interfaces for electronic trading is provided. Electronic trading information is obtained on an application on a target device from one or more electronic trading exchanges. The electronic trading information is displayed on a multi-windowed graphical user interface (GUI) with a number of alternative output displays such as V-shape, with circles or rotating spheres, etc.
Abstract: A method and system for automated medical records processing. The method and system includes plural paper and electronic templates specifically designed such that they reduce the complexity of collecting patient encounter information and help generate the appropriate number and type medical codes for a specific type of medical practice when processed. The method and system also includes processing applications that allow easy and automated collection, processing, displaying and recording of medical codes (e.g., diagnosis codes, billing codes, insurance codes, etc.). The medical codes and other types of processed patient encounter information are displayed in real-time on electronic templates immediately after a patient encounter.

Abstract: An African American board game apparatus and method. The board game apparatus and method is specifically related to African American culture categories, including, but not limited to, history, language including slang, music, movies, sitcoms and sports. It includes an audio-visual device that allows electronic text, audio snippets and video snippets and electronic text to be displayed for trivia questions for selected time periods (e.g., 1960's, 1970's, 1980's, 1990's, etc.) related to African American culture.
Abstract: A method and system for providing automatic execution of trading strategies for electronic trading. A synthetic trading entity is created from two or more actual trading entities. Two or more sets of electronic trading information are received from one or more electronic trading exchanges including trading information for the two or more actual trading entities for the created synthetic trading entity. Two or more electronic trades for the synthetic trading entity are automatically and electronically executed from on the one or more electronic trading exchanges to execute the synthetic trading entity.
Abstract: A method and system for providing dynamic display of electronic trading information for trading spreads. The method and system allow pre-determined and trader defined spreads to be input and one or more trades for the spreads to be automatically executed on one or more trading exchanges. The method and system also allows monitoring of the spreads from one or more graphical windows on a graphical user interface.
Abstract: A method and system for determining histograms and histogram appearances from small data samples. The method and system determine relevant histogram appearances (i.e., bin frequency lists) for uniform bin width sample histograms, exactly determine error minimizing histogram density estimators and determine histogram appearance reversals and mode inversions.
Abstract: A resistance kickboard. The resistance kickboard includes plural resistance indicia that provide varying levels of resistance when the resistance kickboard is moved through water. The varying levels resistance allow swimmers, exercisers and rehabilitation patients to spend less time in a pool while obtaining additional training, exercising or rehabilitation effects. The resistance kickboard may also include a reservoir to hold a liquid. The liquid allows a user to stay hydrated while using the resistance kickboard for longer periods without stopping the activity.
Abstract: A method and system for managing mesh network devices. A mesh network device with integrated features creates an N-way mesh network with a full mesh network topology or a partial mesh network topology.
Abstract: A composition and method for cleaning, sanitizing and maintaining contained bodies of water such as swimming pools, wading pools, fountains, ornamental ponds, etc. The composition includes pre-determined percentages of copper sulfate, zinc sulfate, and aluminum sulfate by weight. The composition and method reduce amounts of chlorine and an amount of labor associated with the cleaning, sanitization and maintenance of contained bodies of water.
Abstract: A method and system for providing electronic information for multi-market electronic trading. The method and system dramatically improve an infrastructure used by electronic traders over a communications network by separating one or more data streams from one or more trading exchange with plural different types of electronic trading information into plural separate data streams that can be selected and displayed by a user on a target device. The plural separate data streams and can be requested, displayed and used faster and more efficiently than an entire data stream including all the multiple types of electronic trading information.
Abstract: A method and system for fast setup of group Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) communications. The method and system provide a lower VoIP signaling overhead and a faster setup-time of group calls such as N-way audio and/or audio-video conference calls. Multi-party VoIP connections are quickly set-up over one or more virtual communications channels established between plural network devices using a session layer application, one or more group transport layer ports and a broadcast destination network address.
