Abstract: A co-shaped laminate is provided. The laminate includes a first curved glass substrate having a first major surface, a second major surface opposing the first major surface, a first thickness (h1), and a first viscosity (?1) of 1×1011 poises at a first temperature (T1); a second curved glass substrate having a third major surface, a fourth major surface opposing the third major surface, a second thickness (h2), the second thickness being less than the first thickness, and a second viscosity (?2) at the first temperature (T1); and an interlayer disposed between the first curved glass substrate and the second curved glass substrate, wherein the ratio of the first thickness to the second thickness (h1/h2) is greater than about 2.1, and wherein the ratio of the second viscosity to the first viscosity (?2/?1) is between about (h1/h2)2.55 and about (h1/h2)3.45.

Abstract: A system and methods for conducting Internet based financial transactions between a client and a server. The client has a processor, a printer, a client authentication module, a module for issuing a transaction request, and a unique digital signature. The server has a network including a transaction server, a transaction database, a server authentication module, and a receipt generation module. An internet connection is used between the client and the server network. The transaction execution system includes authentication, wherein the client authentication module and the server authentication modules communicate via the internet connection and are authenticated to each other.
