Partly Cloudy: Cloud Storage Tip

“Behind every cloud is another cloud.” -- Judy Garland

Like many other people, I use Google® Gmail to store my documents.  And, like many other people, I sometimes find it difficult to find a particular document when I need it.

It is this problem … the problem of finding your stuff … that prompts today’s time saver tip.

TIME SAVER TIP: Include key words in the subject line of the email you use to upload your document.  Be generous with your key words.  You never know how your brain is going to remember a particular document six months later.  In extreme cases, you may want to include additional key words in the text of the email.

So if, for example, you had run across the following three patents and wanted to keep them handy for future reference, you could simply paste the abstract of each patent into the text of your email.

PATENT
Catalyst composition preparation and use
PATENT number: 8088706
Issue date: Jan 3, 2012
Application number: 12/432,278
Inventors: Laszlo Domokos, Hermanus Jongkind, Johannes Anthonius Robert Van Veen
Original Assignee: Shell Oil Company
Abstract
A bulk metal oxide catalyst composition of the general formula description="In-line Formulae" end="lead"(X)b(M)c(Z)d(O)e  (I)description="In-line Formulae" end="tail" wherein X represents at least one non-noble Group VIII metal; M represents at least one non-noble Group VIb metal; Z represents one or more elements selected from aluminum, silicon, magnesium, titanium, zirconium, boron, and zinc; one of b and c is the integer 1; and d and e and the other of b and c each are a number greater than 0 such that the molar ratio of b:c is in the range of from 0.5:1 to 5:1, the molar ratio of d:c is in the range of from 0.2:1 to 50:1, and the molar ratio of e:c is in the range of from 3.7:1 to 108:1; is prepared by controlled (co)precipitation of component metal compounds, refractory oxide material, and alkali compound in protic liquid. Resulting compositions find use in hydrotreatment processes involving particularly hydrodesulphurization and...

PATENT
Deep desulfurization of hydrocarbon fuels
PATENT number: 8158843
Issue date: Apr 17, 2012
Application number: 10/365,574
Inventors: Chunshan Song, Xiaoliang Ma, Michael J. Sprague, Velu Subramani
Original Assignee: The Penn State Research Foundation
Abstract
The invention relates to processes for reducing the sulfur content in hydrocarbon fuels such as gasoline, diesel fuel and jet fuel. The invention provides a method and materials for producing ultra low sulfur content transportation fuels for motor vehicles as well as for applications such as fuel cells. The materials and method of the invention may be used at ambient or elevated temperatures and at ambient or elevated pressures without the need for hydrogen.
