Abstract: The disclosed technology relates to assessing and securing credit risk using credit worthiness tokens issued in a blockchain network responsive to particular financial events. An exemplary blockchain node device may store an issuance smart contract associated with an identity and including a first wallet address and allocation parameters. An event query may be sent to an oracle device external to the blockchain network. The event query may include the identity. Event data associated with the identity may then be received from the oracle device in response to the event query. A number of credit worthiness tokens is determined based on an application of the allocation parameters to the event data. The determined number of credit worthiness tokens is then allocated to the identity via the first wallet address. Thereafter, the credit worthiness tokens can be transferred or collateralized, e.g., and can represent credit worthiness for the identity across financial institutions.

Abstract: A system may receive transaction information associated with a transaction, the transaction information comprising an account number associated with a first user. The system may determine whether the transaction is associated with a second user. Responsive to determining the transaction is associated with the second user, the system may transmit a first prompt to a first user device associated with the first user, the first prompt comprising a request to confirm or deny the transaction. The system may receive, via the first user device, a first user selection confirming the transaction. Responsive to receiving the first user selection, the system may determine whether the transaction exceeds a predetermined threshold. Responsive to determining the transaction exceeds the predetermined threshold, the system may transmit a second prompt to the first user device, the second prompt comprising a recommendation to designate the second user as an authorized user of the account number.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to methods of treating a plant having a plant part. One method involves providing a plant having a plant part; applying an aqueous treatment formulation to the plant, where the aqueous treatment formulation comprises a thickener, a water soluble divalent salt, a foam control agent, a complexing agent, a film forming agent, and water; and harvesting the plant part, where the aqueous treatment formulation, when applied to a surface of a plant, creates a water fast film on the surface that permits permeation of an aqueous material to the plant while minimizing loss of moisture or loss of a plant treatment chemical from the plant as compared to when the composition is not applied to the surface of the plant. The present invention also relates to a methods of treating a harvested plant part and to the treated harvested plant parts.

Abstract: A gas turbine engine includes: a core engine surrounded by a core fairing; a propulsive fan; a nacelle surrounding the propulsive fan, the core fairing and the core engine; and a fan duct for receiving a bypass air flow accelerated by the propulsive fan, the fan duct being defined between the nacelle and the core fairing. The gas turbine engine further includes an air-oil heat exchanger for cooling engine oil using an air flow diverted from the bypass air flow, the heat exchanger being mounted behind a wall of the fan duct. The gas turbine engine further includes a flow passage which receives the diverted air flow at a first location in the fan duct, delivers the diverted air flow to the heat exchanger, and returns the diverted air flow to the fan duct at a second location which is downstream of the first location.

Abstract: Systems and methods are directed to a speech translation system and methods for configuring a translation device included in the translation system. The translation device may include a first speaker element and a second speaker element. In some embodiments, the first speaker element may be configured as a personal-listening speaker, and the second speaker element may be configured as a group-listening speaker. The translation device may be configured to selectively and dynamically utilize one or both of the first speaker element and the second speaker element to facilitate translation services in different contexts. As a result, in such embodiments, the translation device may provide a wider range of user experiences that may facilitate translation services.
