An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for an improved video stream. The method involves taking video of a location and mapping points of interest that are in the range of the camera. Tags are associated with various points of interest and are inserted into the video stream and displayed to the users. Tags may include advertisements and information about particular locations. In certain embodiments, proprietors pay a fee to have a tag associated with their location. The user may be able to remotely control the camera to view a particular area, with the tags appearing at appropriate locations. Video streams from numerous cameras at varying locations may be made available on a website, and end users may select the camera they are interested in and control the camera via the website.

Aspects for pooling lottery winnings are disclosed. In a first aspect, a relationship structure is generated among nodes having a lineage of related nodes arranged in a hierarchy. A series of numbers are respectively assigned to a portion of nodes and a winning node is identified. Compensated nodes are then selected that include the winning node and at least one non-winning node. In another aspect, nodes are monitored over a series of lottery games in which winning nodes are tracked and compensated nodes are identified. Nodes are then valuated based on a corresponding historical winning metric according to lineage taken over the series of lottery games. In a further aspect, nodes are placed in a relationship structure and a winning node representing an actual lottery game win is identified. A distribution of a corresponding payout among compensated nodes is then ascertained.

Method and apparatus that facilitates pooling lottery winnings via a relational structure

A liquid composition, active curing additive for water or solvent borne surface coatings and sealants such: latex products, paints, putties, caulks, sports track and court construction, asphalt or coal tar seal coating, asphalt paving, micro-seal, roof tars, asphalt emulsions, crack sealants, and the like is provided. The additive functions to significantly reduce the amount of time required for the surface coating to cure and thereby allows the coated or sealed surface to be quickly returned to service. Preferably, the additive is composed of a composition of water; calcium chloride granules; citric acid granules; and an ammonium dispersing composition. Alternatively, aluminum sulfate may be utilized in place of calcium chloriade and citric acid. This formulation, when added to a liquid surface sealant or coating, will create an active process within the film of the said sealant or coating which draws water out of the film extremely fast, thereby reducing the amount of time required for the surface coating or sealant to cure.

The additive functions to significantly reduce the amount of time required for the surface coating to cure and thereby allows the coated or sealed surface to be quickly returned to service. Preferably, the additive is composed of a composition of fly ash, hydrous ammonia, water or solvent, and bentonite. This formulation, when added to a liquid surface sealant or coating, will create an active process within the film of the said sealant or coating which draws water out of the film extremely fast, thereby reducing the amount of time required for the surface coating or sealant to cure.

A liquid composition additive for surface coatings such as paint or coal tar asphalt sealant is provided. The additive functions to significantly reduce the amount of time required for the surface coating to dry and thereby allows the coated surface to be quickly returned to service. Preferably, the additive is composed of a composition of fly ash hydrous ammonia, water, and a colorant. This formulation, when added to a liquid surface sealant or coating, will draw water out of the surface coating extremely fast thereby reducing the amount of time required for the surface coating to dry.

A method and apparatus for controlling power consumption of a facility, building or simply a collection of one or more devices, by load shedding when power consumption is above, or is predicted to be above, a preselected setpoint, but only if electrical power on the spot market cannot be purchased at or below a preselected price. The apparatus and method of the invention optimizes power usage by taking advantage of the buying of electricity as a commodity on the spot market. As a further aspect of the invention, in the situation of a supermarket for example, which refrigerates food products, artificial product core temperature sensors or direct insertion product sensors can be used to continuously monitor the refrigerated temperature of perishable products. A controller would constantly monitor these temperatures to allow a precise load shedding routine to be implemented.

A refrigeration system for objects is disclosed. The system includes a refrigeration device and a defrost system. The refrigeration device provides a case or container defining a space for the objects, a first heat exchanger associated with the container for cooling a fluid communicating with the space to cool the objects and a second heat exchanger to receive a heat supply from an air source for warming the fluid. A system for cooling articles is also disclosed. The system includes a space configured to contain the articles, a first element to provide cooling of the articles within the space, a first coolant source to refrigerate the space by cooling the first element in a first state, and a second coolant source to elevate a temperature of the first element in a second state.

Refrigeration system

A system for refrigeration of products includes a case having a compartment defining a space configured to receive the products. A first heat exchanger is configured to cool a fluid communicating with the space to cool the objects. A second heat exchanger is configured to receive a heat supply from an air source to warm the fluid. At least one coolant supply line and at least one coolant discharge line are configured to direct the fluid in communication with the space.

Service case

A temperature controlled service case for storage and display of chilled or frozen products, including at least one compartment for product storage, at least one access opening providing entrance to the compartment, at least one shelf within the compartment for holding product, and refrigeration operatively associated with the compartment for maintaining a selected temperature therein. The refrigeration includes at least one cooling coil above the shelf with a cooling medium flowing therethrough, and cooling within the shelf with a cooling medium flowing therethrough. Coolant supply is also provided for supplying cooling medium to the cooling coil and shelf with separate coolant supply and discharge lines from the coolant supply to the cooling coil and shelf. In accordance with a further embodiment, the shelf is divided into separate sections. In accordance with a still further embodiment, means are provided to warm the coolant for at least one of said cooling coil and shelf.
