Abstract: Some embodiments are directed to a process for forming products from animal waste (e.g., poultry litter). The products may include a controlled release fertilizer and renewable natural gas. The process may include providing a feedstock comprising greater than about 80 percent poultry waste and a moisture content of about 25 percent. The feedstock may be diluted to form a slurry having a moisture content of about 90%. The slurry may be mechanically refined to reduce the particle size distribution and the average particle size of the slurry. The slurry may be anaerobically digested to produce biogas and a digestate. The biogas may be converted to renewable natural gas, and the digestate may be converted to a controlled release fertilizer. Additionally, some embodiments are directed to methods of reducing nitrogen emission from soil amendments. Some embodiments are directed to reducing nitrogen emissions sufficient to produce emissions offset credits.

Abstract: The invention in some embodiments features a contextual content delivery system (CCDS) for enhancing conventional web content with pop-up bubbles that display information when a cursor hovers over a word, link, or icon. The CCDS is configured to identify words or links in a document, determine their context, select the appropriate bubble from a plural of bubble types for each of the words or links, select content for each bubble based, in part, on the context in which the words and hyperlinks are used. The context can be determined from various sources including the resource in which the word or link appears and the target resource to which the link points. Thereafter, the CCDS enhances the words or links so that bubbles are automatically invoked in response to the appropriate trigger.

Abstract: An search apparatus including a field for entering a search term, and a display area for displaying a search result. The search apparatus is displayed together with a current page on a web browser, and a search result of a search can be displayed in the search apparatus. As such, the current page displayed on the web browser does not necessarily change after the search has been performed.

Abstract: A search apparatus with a user interface to a search engine is disclosed. The search apparatus includes a search term field, a search result list area and a search result display area. The search term field is adapted to receive a search term to be submitted to a search engine to initiate a search. The search result list area is used to display a list of search results found during the search. The search result display area is adapted to display one or more web pages corresponding to the search results, wherein the web pages are displayed in a matrix format. When configured to display two or more web pages, the at least two web pages are concurrently displayed. The number of the web pages concurrently displayed in the search result display area is user selectable.

Abstract: A method and a tool for suggesting search terms and other information during information search based on characters entered by users. Search terms may be suggested based on a heuristic that may take into account frequency of use and indexing of a database.

Abstract: A free standing foldable panel structure has a plurality of panel sections which are foldably joined together along their edges. One of each pair of adjacent panel sections has a foldable tab at each end thereof these tabs being adapted to fit into slots formed in the adjacent panel in holding engagement therewith to set the adjacent panels in a predetermined angular position relative to each other. The mating panels can be readily assembled and disassembled and can be utilized as a display board, portable enclosure, etc.
