  • Patent number: 11861713
    Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for analyzing financial risk of a financial security. A video is displayed by the computer system on a mobile display system. Object detection is performed on the video to identify a fixed asset in the video. The computer system identifies a financial security supported by the fixed asset identified in the video. An overlay of financial data about the financial security is displayed in association with the fixed asset in the video. The financial data includes a financial model of the financial security and an assumption of the financial model. The assumption of the financial model is updated based on a status of the fixed asset in the video. The financial risk of the financial security is analyzed based on the financial model and the assumption that was updated.

  • Patent number: 11494416
    Abstract: A method, apparatus, system, and computer program product for processing news items. A computer system receives news items from a network. The computer system identifies relevant news items in the news items based on events in the news items that relate an ability for set of operators to operate a set of properties. The computer system determines a context for the events in the relevant news items. The computer system clusters the relevant news items according to the events in the relevant news items into clusters based on the events such that the relevant news items about the same events are grouped together in the clusters. The same events are determined using the context for the events. The computer system matches the events in the clusters to transactions for the set of properties for the events to form matched transactions. The computer system performs actions for the matched transactions.

  • Patent number: 4349580
    Abstract: A process for preserving green colored plant tissues while retaining the natural green color thereof, in which the tissues are immersed in a relatively inexpensive solution comprising up to about 90% water, at least one monohydric alcohol, at least one preservative component such as sulphurous acid, and sufficient buffering and mordant reagents such as citric acid and cupric salts such as cupric chloride and cupric sulphate, to control the pH and osmolality of the solution and so as to permanently retain the natural green color in the tissues.

  • Patent number: 4328256
    Abstract: A process for preserving green colored plant tissues and in particular coniferous needles, holly and low fiber leaves such as mosses, lichens and ferns in which selected leaves are immersed in a solution comprising (by volume) 35-45% water, 20-30% 2-propanol, 5-12% propionic acid, 5-10% sulphurous acid, 5-10% formalin, 2.5-5% formic acid, 1-5% ethylene glycol, and optionally minor amounts of compounds selected from the group consisting of cupric sulphate, cupric chloride, 20-20-20 fertilizer, citric acid, DBE, magnesium sulphate, acetic acid, cupric acetate, cupric nitrate, sodium phosphate, sodium sulfite, butylated hydroxytolulene and glycerol, for a sufficient time to exchange the naturally occurring water in the tissues with the "chemical water" of the solution and thereby permanently retain and biologically fix the green color of the leaves.

  • Patent number: 4278715
    Abstract: A process for preserving green colored plant tissues while retaining the natural green color thereof, in which the tissues are immersed in a solution comprising: water, at least one monohydric alcohol, at least one preservative component selected from the group comprising lower carboxylic acids, di and tri hydric alcohols, and sufficient buffering and mordant reagents to control the pH and osmolality of said solution, so as to permanently retain said green color in said tissues. In a preferred embodiment the treated tissue is subjected to a secondary treatment in a holding solution comprising glycerin and water.

  • Patent number: 4272571
    Abstract: A process for preserving substantially any variety of flower while retaining the natural colors thereof, in which the flower is immersed in an essentially water-free composition comprising: at least one dehydrating alcohol, a carboxylic acid, a urea-containing compound, an alkaline citrate, and zero to an effective amount of at least one of a silicone fluid, a silicone resin, an alkaline formaldehyde sulfoxylate, aluminum or magnesium sulphate and cupric or other transitional metal sulphate for sufficient time to dehydrate the flower, said composition also containing a sufficient quantity of at least one compound in the group consisting of an alkaline phosphate, a lower carboxylic acid and phenol so as to ensure that the composition has a pH in the range 5-7. Following immersion the flower is dried and, if desired coated with a silicone resin.
