Title: Using accounting data based indexing to create a portfolio of assets
Inventor: WOOD PAUL C
IPC: G06Q40/00
Filed: 2012-10-30
Abstract: Abstract A system, method and computer program product creates an index based on accounting based data, as well as a portfolio of financial objects based on the index where the portfolio is weighted according to accounting based data. A passive investment system may be based on indices created from various metrics. The indexes may be built with metrics other than market capitalization weighting, price weighting or equal weighting. Non-financial metrics may also be used to build indexes to create passive investment systems. Additionally, a combination of financial non-market capitalization metrics may be used along with non-financial metrics to create passive investment systems. Once the index is built, it may be used as a basis to purchase securities for a portfolio. Specifically excluded are widely-used capitalization-weighted indexes and price-weighted indexes, in which the price of a security contributes in a substantial way to the calculation of the weight of that security in the index or the portfolio, and equal weighting weighted indexes. Valuation indifferent indexes avoid overexposure to overvalued securities and underexposure to undervalued securities, as compared with conventional capitalization-weighted and price-weighted.

Title: Overbased friction modifiers and methods of use thereof
Inventor: SEDDON ELISA J
IPC: C10M141/06
Filed: 2012-07-19
Abstract: The present invention provides a multipurpose overbased metal salt of the reaction product of a hydrocarbyl substituted amine with an itaconate, such as an N-substituted 4-carboxypyrrolidin-2-one, and methods of employing the same in lubricating compositions. Overbasing the N-substituted 4-carboxypyrrolidin-2-one can provide improved friction modifying performance to the compound as well as impart multi-functionality to the compound, i.e., the compound may function as a friction modifier as well as, for example, a detergent, anti-wear or extreme pressure agent and dispersant in lubricating compositions. The lubricating compositions containing the overbased N-substituted 4-carboxypyrrolidin-2-one are preferably intended to be employed in a method for lubricating a mechanical device, such as an automatic or manual transmission. However, it is envisioned that the compound can be employed in engine oil lubricants and any other type of functional fluid.

Title: Retractable roof
Inventor: VOLLEBREGT RICHARD
IPC: E04F10/04
Filed: 2012-08-03
Abstract: A roof structure to protect a crop growing area includes a retractable roof membrane or curtain that defines pitched sections of roof. The membrane is supported on wires and extends across the valley between pitched sections. Apertures are provided in the membrane to allow water to pass through the membrane. A gutter may be disposed in the valley beneath the apertures to collect the water and discharge it away from the crop growing area. A rotating drive tube mounted on an interior rafter has cables connected to the drive tube with a spring connected to each cable to regulate minimum tension of the cable. The drive system is positioned so that the membrane adjacent to the drive tube on the interior inclined rafter is able to travel the same distance as the second membrane from the drive system. The rafter contains profiles to allow the stationary end of said membrane to be attached to said rafters using both a round tube and a "C shaped profile to be installed continuously along said rafter to provide a water tight connection between said rafter and said membrane. The rafter also contains clips which provide the ability to restrict the guide wires which suspend said membrane in such a way that wires are clamped to inhibit vertical, lateral and horizontal movement at interior rafter locations with a different clamp at a rafter adjacent to a perimeter wall of the structure such that the guidewire can move only perpendicular to the rafter. Guidewires are typically supported by trusses but now can be alternatively supported by a network of flexible cable or rods at a lower cost. To allow for ventilation and rain protect simultaneously, a secondary membrane is installed below a opening in the roof, with the secondary membrane transporting rainwater which entered through the roof opening down into a gutter. To maximize the reduction in temperatures at the crop level during the summer, and to hold the heat closer to the plants during the cold winter conditions winter daytime temperatures, the upper retractable membrane is white and a secondary retractable membrane located closer to the plants is clear.
