Abstract: Intervention in the operation of a smart contract in a distributed ledger system may include: launching execution of the smart contract; upon launching execution of the smart contract, executing a judgment checking function to determine whether a judgment against the smart contract exists in a judgment database; in response to a judgment against the smart contract existing in the judgment database, intervening in the operation of the smart contract to prevent the execution of the smart contract; and in response to no judgment against the smart contract existing in the judgment database, continuing execution of the smart contract.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to various embodiments of threaded container valves and gravity nozzles. The gravity nozzle includes a threaded container valve and a delivery tube. The threaded container valve includes a valve section having a first inlet and a second inlet, and an engagement section coupled to the valve section. The delivery tube includes a fluid tube and a vapor tube. The fluid tube has a first end, configured to engage with the first inlet of the valve section. The vapor tube has a first end, configured to engage with the second inlet of the valve section. The fluid tube and the vapor tube each have a second end, configured to engage with a delivery inlet.

Abstract: An embodiment of a method of providing financial data to a financial instrument smart contract in a distributed ledger system includes: receiving, by an oracle smart contract in the distributed ledger system, a transaction from the financial instrument smart contract, the transaction including registration data having an identification of financial data to be delivered and an identification of a schedule on which to deliver the financial data; generating a transaction including the financial data; and transmitting the generated transaction to at least one distributed node of the distributed ledger system according to the requested schedule.

Abstract: A plant irrigation dispenser and method controllably dispenses nutritional compositions to a plant. The dispenser comprises a housing defined by a first end and a second end that forms a channel. Impaling members form at the second end of the housing. The housing encloses multiple chambers that contain the nutritional composition. The chambers have a filling end and a dispensing end that forms an opening. A membrane seals the opening. Rotatably manipulating and axially displacing the chambers in relation to the housing allows the impaling members to tear the membrane, so that the nutritional compositions flows through the openings, and onto the plant. A press is in communication with the chamber cavities, so that axially displacing the press in a downward direction forces the nutritional compositions through the openings. A valve assembly retains and manipulates plugs in alignment with the openings to selectively couple and decouple the respective openings.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a computer-based system for generating a risk register relating to a named entity. The system comprises a computing device, a risk database accessible by the computing device and having stored therein a set of risk types based on an induced taxonomy of risk types previously derived at least in part upon operation of a machine learning module, an input adapted to receive a set of source data, the set of source data being in electronic form and representing textual content comprising potential risk phrases, a entity-risk relation classifier adapted to identify and extract entity-risk relations from the set of source data, a risk tagger adapted to identify in the set of source data a set of risk candidates (ri) based on the set of risk types, a entity tagger adapted to identify mentions of entity names (ci) in the set of source data, and a risk register aggregator adapted to generate a first risk register based on the set of tuples associated with a first entity.

Abstract: A transportable audio system is described. The transportable audio system may include a speaker module and speaker mating module. The speaker module may include a backside mating edge and a backside interior inset from the backside mating edge. The backside mating edge may include a first attachment mechanism. The speaker mating module may include a frontside mating edge and a frontside face. The frontside mating edge may include a second attachment mechanism. The speaker mating module may be removably mountable to the speaker module via the first and second attachment mechanisms.
