Publication number: 20050273346Abstract: A system of finding real property comprises a map-based search tool and a street-based search tool. The map-based search tool allows a user to enter geographical coordinates by drawing a shape on a map. The map-based search tool queries a map coordinate-geographical coordinate database to determine geographical coordinates that define the drawn shape. The map-based search tool queries a property coordinates database to find a first set of properties that are within the coordinates. The map-based search tool queries a parcel map database to find a second set of properties displayed on a parcel map that also displays at least one property in the first set of properties. The street-based search tool allows a user to enter a number of street names and queries a parcel map database to find properties that are displayed on a parcel map that also displays the streets identified by the street names.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 2, 2004Publication date: December 8, 2005Inventor: Richard Frost

Patent number: 5925173Abstract: This invention relates to a method of inhibiting the corrosion of flux-treated metal surfaces. The method comprises the step of contacting the flux-treated metal surface with a formulation comprising a corrosion inhibitor composition comprising one or more mono-carboxylic acids, or salts or isomers thereof, and an effective amount of a corrosion inhibiting surface active agent such as a water soluble alkali or alkaline earth metal nitrate salt. This method has been demonstrated to be a surprisingly effective means to inhibit corrosion of flux-treated metal surfaces found in the cooling systems of internal combustion engines.Type: GrantFiled: August 11, 1997Date of Patent: July 20, 1999Assignee: Prestone Products corporationInventors: Richard A.
