Abstract: This invention is a new and distinct grapevine variety named ‘IFG Fourteen’ which is characterized by producing small round bright red berries having very crisp texture with a very strong muscat flavor and which ripens in midseason.

Abstract: The riser system of the present invention includes an external production riser for floating structures with interfaces to the dry and subsea wellheads, internal tieback riser with a special lower overshot/slipping connector for elevated temperatures. The seals can be metallic and/or non-metallic dynamic seals. Special centralizing pipe connectors and a special subsea wellhead tubing hanger are also included. This riser system avoids the penalty of pipe within pipe differential thermal growth and the resulting unwanted effects on the floating structure. This is accomplished by allowing an overshot sealing slipping connector to swallow an expanding polished rod as thermal conditions cause pipe elongation axially. When elevated temperatures fall to ambient the opposite occurs as the pipe shrinks axially. Alternatively, a system is possible where a two pipe drilling riser is needed. The internal pipe in this case would be an inner riser rather than a tubing string.

Abstract: This invention is a new and distinct grapevine variety denominated ‘IFG Thirteen’. The new grapevine is characterized by producing obtuse ovate, completely black seedless berries which are firm in texture, low in acidity and ripen early in the growing season.

Abstract: This invention is a new and distinct grapevine variety denominated ‘IFG Twelve’. The new grapevine is characterized by producing very pointed narrow reddish purple grapes having small to medium sized seed traces.

Abstract: This invention is a new and distinctive grapevine ‘IFG Eleven’ ‘IFG Eleven’ produces naturally large, elongated, crisp white seedless berries that require little or no exogenous application of gibberellic acid to obtain commercially acceptable berry size and ripen in mid to late season

Abstract: A new and distinct grapevine variety denominated ‘IFG Ten’ is characterized by producing large, very crisp, oval, green, seedless berries borne on medium size clusters. The fruit ripen and are commercially harvestable in mid-season.

Abstract: An offshore system with a subsea riser, including a floating platform and a subsea riser made up of sections of pipe. A riser tension system compensates for movement of the platform while providing tension to the riser. At least two of the riser sections are connected with a connector such that a portion of the riser is able to be placed in compression without buckling.

Abstract: A new and distinct plum tree variety, Prunus salicina, cv. ‘Suplumfortyfour’ is characterized by large fruit with yellow skin.

Abstract: A system and method for construction of a building from components, supplies and tools which are transported to the desired building site in a shipping container. The building components loaded and transported in the shipping container include preassembled wall panels, ceiling panels, roof trusses, roof panels, roof cladding sheets and wall cladding sheets. Each preassembled component is sized so that no measuring or cutting of same is required during construction at the building site, and each component may be manually carried without the need for using a lifting device.

Abstract: This invention is a new and distinct grapevine variety named ‘IFG Nine’ which is characterized by producing naturally large light red, firm, narrow ellipsoid to somewhat cylindrical seedless grapes borne on large clusters. The fruit ripen and are harvestable in early to mid-September.

Abstract: This invention is a new and distinct interspecific grapevine denominated ‘IFG Seven’. ‘IFG Seven’ is characterized by producing large, firm, oval green seedless berries with a distinctive and unique flavor. The fruit ripen and are harvestable from mid to late August.

Abstract: This invention is a new and distinct grapevine variety denominated ‘IFG Eight’. The new grapevine is characterized by producing crisp oval, seedless fruits which are fully black in color and ripen early in the growing season.

Abstract: This invention is a new and distinct grapevine variety named ‘IFG Five’ which is characterized by producing extremely large purple to black, firm, elongated oval seeded grapes borne on large clusters. The fruit ripen and are harvestable in mid-August.

Abstract: This invention is a new and distinct interspecific grapevine denominated ‘IFG Seven’. ‘IFG Seven’ is characterized by producing large, firm, oval green seedless berries with a distinctive and unique flavor. The fruit ripen and are harvestable from mid to late August.

Abstract: This invention is a new and distinct grapevine variety denominated ‘IFG Six’. The new grapevine is characterized by producing naturally large, extremely elongated, narrow diameter, crisp, seedless black berries having a distinct dimple on the distal end. The fruit ripen and are commercially harvestable from late August to mid-September. Berries color to full black and store well.
