Abstract: A liquid monitoring system includes a remote measurement device located at a location of the fire hydrant that is in contact with water provided by a water main. The remote measurement device has sensors that measure characteristics of the water and a communication interface that transmits measured information to a communication network device that may be located elsewhere on the fire hydrant. The communication network device communicates with a communication network.

Abstract: Methods and systems for predicting relevant items to be presented to a user in an online environment are described. The methods and systems described herein generate models based on previous item selections to determine an overall time series model for predicting a relevant time of next item selection as well as items most likely to be selected at that time. Complementary items can be presented to the user alongside the selection of most relevant items.

Abstract: A process comprising, providing an agricultural biofuel to a fluidized bed reactor and combusting the agricultural biofuel to produce heat and/or steam is disclosed. In one embodiment systems for generating energy with agricultural biofuel are provided. In one embodiment, the agricultural biofuel is selected from the group consisting of agricultural crops, crop residues, grain processing facility waste, value-added agricultural facility byproducts, livestock production facility waste, livestock processing facility waste and food processing facility waste. In one embodiment, the heat and/or steam is used to generate electricity. In other embodiments, the heat and/or steam is used to power the grain processing facility, livestock production facility, livestock processing facility or food processing facility. In another embodiment, one or more environmental controls are used. In a particular embodiment, ethanol byproducts are used as the agricultural biofuel.

Abstract: A method for making photographs that are printed off a computer that was inputted with a digital camera, compatible with standard-sized picture frames. It also applies to any graphic material that is printed onto paper using a computer printer. A piece of paper contains perforations at strategic locations so that a person can carefully tear off a border section of the paper outside the perforations and obtain from their standard sized paper (i.e. 8 by 11 inch) a photograph on a paper size that fits neatly into a standard sized picture frame, such 8 by 10 inch or 4 by 6 inch picture frames.
