Abstract:
A preferred embodiment of the inventive fluid delivery system comprises a vertical liquid/vapor separator and riser assembly that comprises a multi-phase separator inlet, a vapor outlet and riser, and a liquid outlet port connected to a hydraulically-driven centrifugal pump. By controlling the operational speed of the pump, the level of the separated liquid within the separator can be controlled without the need for control valves. The vertical separator is capable of low pressure operation and large variations in controlled liquid levels within the separator, allowing the relatively slow reaction time pump to control the liquid level from low pressure wells penetrating low pressure reservoirs.
Abstract:
A device for storing, mixing and applying skincare, cosmetic, food and pharmaceutical products includes a tubular housing which is used to hold a plurality of dispensing canisters, a plurality of plungers, and a dispensing actuation hub. The plurality of dispensing canisters is used to store various types of skincare, cosmetic, food, and pharmaceutical products. Each of the plurality of plungers is used to dispense products from a corresponding dispensing canister. Each of the plurality of plungers is controlled by the dispensing actuation hub. The device includes a microprocessor housed within the tubular housing and used to control which products are dispensed by the dispensing actuation hub. The device is powered by power supply which is also housed within the tubular housing. A mixing chamber is included within the tubular housing and provides a space for multiple products to be blended.

Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to the identification of video content. In one aspect, a method includes generating a query based on bibliographic data. The method also includes obtaining a collection of resources responsive to the query, wherein one or more of the resources include text and video content. The method further includes calculating occurrence scores for the resources. A particular occurrence score for a particular resource is based at least in part on the bibliographic data matching text included in the particular resource and the text being associated with video content. The method further includes selecting one or more resources as including video content identified by the bibliographic data using the occurrence scores. The method further includes storing data associating the selected resources with the bibliographic data.
Abstract:
A system to add metadata to downstream broadcasts to devices such as smart phones, MP3 music players, tablet computers, etc. equipped with receivers to receive said downstream broadcasts and a full time or part time upstream digital data communication path. The devices are controlled to display or playback advertisements, images etc. in the metadata, detect click events indicating interest by a user in something in the metadata and communicate that click event upstream over a full time or part time internet or an SMS data path connection. Upstream communications to implement user interest such as visit web pages, make a phone call, start an e-commerce transaction are implemented by the client devices. The Transmitters have structure to insert metadata in band or out of band with the broadcast program content and can be coupled to ad servers.
