Abstract: A system and method for selecting plants based on climate data and plant data. The system receives climate data and plant data and selects plants for a geographical division based on the climate data and plant data. The system generates durable plant tags with for the plants that have an icon that identifies the lighting level and watering level of the plants using a color and a number.

Abstract: Implementations of the present disclosure involve a system and/or method for analyzing the energy efficiency of a building. The system receives a set of data points from a building automation system operating to control various aspects of the building. The data points each corresponds to an environmental condition of the building. Each data point is associated with a variable that represents the represents a type of information conveyed by the data point. Variables are then mapped to component models that represent the physical components of the building. A formula is then selected for evaluating the operation of one or more physical components. Building problems are then diagnosed by evaluating the formula using the data points.

Abstract: A music game method includes retrieving song data having note information from a storage medium coupled to a computer system. The method also includes determining from the song data at least two note indicators to be presented sequentially and determining from the song data a leader between first and second note indicators. The leader provides information related to the second note indicator. A music game system includes a song manager module configured to retrieve song data having note information from a storage medium, and a user interface module configured to determine from the song data at least two note indicators to be presented sequentially and to determine from the song data a leader between first and second note indicators. Each note indicator is related to corresponding note information. The first and second note indicators are adjacent to one another.

Abstract: Porous carpeting for use within vehicles, and methods of making same, are provided. A carpet backing is heated to achieve a fluid or semi-fluid state and then subjected to intense vacuum to draw air through the carpet backing to create a porous structure. A layer of porous thermoformable material may be applied to the porous carpet structure to provide mechanical strength.

Abstract: Documents distributed in parallel are processed. One or more digital document packages are received, where each digital document package includes a content portion and an identity-verification code (IVC) verifying an identity of a source from which the digital document package is received. Each IVC may be a private-key encryption of a content-verification code hashed from the content portion of each digital document package. A master digital document package is created, which includes a master content portion equivalent to the content portion in each unmodified digital document package, and one or more different IVCs, each IVC obtained from a digital document package received from a different source.

Abstract: A spoon-type artificial fish lure includes three aligned sections pivotally connected together for relative pivotal movement by laterally spaced connectors. The front section is generally triangular having an upwardly cupped front portion and a flat rear portion. The middle section has an upwardly curved profile so that it forms a section of a cylinder curved about an axis of curvature extending longitudinally above and along the axis of the lure. The rear section is upwardly curved like the middle section. The connectors connecting the middle and rear sections are laterally closer together than the connectors joining the front and middle sections. The result is a lure that undulates rapidly in a single plane (i.e., up and down) without spinning when moving through water.

Abstract: A carbon layer between a neon layer and a sodium layer serves as a thermal buffer therebetween to enable the neon layer to remain at a lower temperature and density to allow for the generation of coherent x-rays. A high powered laser heats the sodium layer which acts as a flashlamp for direct photon pumping of the neon layer. The neon layer, heated by a lower powered laser, then lases at about 58, 82, and/or 230 angstroms.

Abstract: A fishing lure which remains in an upright attitude while sinking in the water or resting on the bottom. The fishing lure includes a body and a fishing hook, and has a buoyant member at one side of the lure body. The buoyant member has sufficient buoyancy to maintain the lure body and the fish hook in a predetermined upright attitude while the lure sinks in the water. The buoyant member is hollow and contains loose shot, which produces a rattling noise as the buoyant member gyrates when the lure is pulled through the water.
