Abstract: The system of the present invention provides an E-learning platform that enables one or more student users to access teaching content that is in part user defined, from a variety of network-connected devices. In one aspect of the invention, the teaching content is user defined in that it is in part A) teacher generated or teacher assembled, and in part (B) student generated or student directed, as further explained below. A system, method and computer program is provided for creating content and dynamically updating content is provided based on meta data extracted from semantic analysis of content and of electronic social interactions among users and between users and content.

Abstract: A phthalic acid such as terephthalic acid is made soluble in an oil of lubricating viscosity by first mixing it with at least one phosphorus compound. The resulting product is useful for reducing corrosion in a transmission lubricant.
