Abstract: A method for producing cannabinoid-containing crystals includes providing a CBGA-containing plant material that includes at least 2% CBGA by dry weight. The CBGA-containing plant material is exposed to a fluid in a supercritical state to extract components of the CBGA-containing plant material. A fraction of the extracted components is coalesced. The coalesced fraction of the extracted components includes cannabinoid-containing crystals containing at least one of CBGA and a cannabinoid derivative of CBGA from the carbon dioxide.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method for a stated network portal that is adaptable to a wide variety of network applications, such as the Internet. The invention encompasses a system and method for dynamically adjusting portal views accessed by the user, according to the state of the system, as defined through the use of a rules database. The rules database is adjustable and customizable by the user, so as to provide for the automatic generation of output to the user which is intelligent to the data which the user requires. The rules database also accommodates time-sensitive rules, so that certain rules within the database are operable only under certain times or operate perpetually as the system operates.

Abstract: Disclosed is a flywheel system for storing kinetic energy which utilizes a high temperature superconductor/magnet system for the flywheel bearings. The flywheel includes a first magnet, and having a ring magnet defining an opening. The levitation system includes a magnet for attractively interacting with first flywheel magnet, with a high temperature superconductor interposed between them, and further includes a magnet system for repulsively interacting with and partially inserted into the ring magnet.

Abstract: An isolation system for isolating a first object from vibrations from a second object. Such vibrations will have three orthogonal components, one oriented along a line between the objects, and two oriented 90.degree. apart in a plane normal to that line. The system includes three superconductor/magnet stages, each stage designed to extinguish one of the orthogonal components.
