Title: Statistical spam message detection
Inventor: HURLEY JOHN JOSEPH
IPC: H04L12/58
Filed: 2008-06-02
Abstract: A mobile telecommunication network monitors short messages and multime-dia messages sent to non-existent mobile sub-scribers and selectively treats such messages as if sent to an existent recipient. The network then provides the sender with ordinary signal-ing related to successful message delivery so as to form traps to attract and detect spam mes-sages such as spam messages. Spam messages are detectable as statistically significant pres-ence of identical or sufficiently similar mes-sages in a sufficiently large subset of unused subscriber numbers being assigned as traps for spam messages. The treatment of messages ad-dressed to numbers assigned to trap use can fur-ther model normal usage of mobile subscrip-tions so as to inhibit simple determination of subscriber numbers that are used for trapping spam messages.

Abstract: A new cultivar of medicinal cannabis has been bred that renders large amounts of cannabidiolic acid (mg/gram ground flower weight)... greater than 10%. The cultivar moved from an outdoor to indoor environment produced similar levels of cannabidiolic (CBD) and similar cannabinoid profiles. Reproduced asexually, the same (greater than 10%) cannabidiolic acid amounts were rendered and this remains constant crop to crop.  THC levels do not change between 20 and 30% of that of the CBD-A  concentration.  High Pressure Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) determines Cannabinoid profiles where the amounts of the three most abundant cannabinoids (tetrahydrocannabinol, cannabinol and cannabidiol) and their acids are quantified. The cannabinoid profile relates directly to the physiological effects of the plant as a medicine. In addition, a genetic fingerprint of the strain has been generated using gel electrophoresis. Strains high in cannabidiolic acid are rare since commercial breeding has led to strains with large concentrations of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and very little cannabidiol making the strain in question rare. Hayley's Comet provides a unique cannabinoid profile containing large concentrations of CBD-A making it useful for medicaments for seizure disorder, pain and inflammation.
