20090129573	SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETECTING AND MANAGING FRAUD - A system, method and computer program product for processing event records. The present invention includes a detection layer, an analysis layer, an expert systems layer and a presentation layer. The layered system includes a core infrastructure and a configurable, domain-specific implementation. The detection layer employs one or more detection engines, such as, for example, a rules-based thresholding engine and a profiling engine. The detection layer can include an AI-based pattern recognition engine for analyzing data records, for detecting new and interesting patterns and for updating the detection engines to insure that the detection engines can detect the new patterns. In one embodiment, the present invention is implemented as a telecommunications fraud detection system. When fraud is detected, the detection layer generates alarms which are sent to the analysis layer. The analysis layer filters and consolidates the alarms to generate fraud cases. The analysis layer preferably generates a probability of fraud for each fraud case. The expert systems layer receives fraud cases and automatically initiates actions for certain fraud cases. The presentation layer also receives fraud cases for presentation to human analysts. The presentation layer permits the human analysts to initiate additional actions.	05-21-2009

20100180618	WATER COLLECTION DEVICE - A water collection device for collecting water at least one of condensing, dripping, flowing, running, and a combination thereof from an exhaust portion of an air conditioner includes a housing having an open ended top portion for placement at least one of beneath an exhaust portion of such air conditioner, closely adjacent an exhaust portion of such air conditioner, and a combination thereof. Water enters such housing through such top portion for collection. An aperture is disposed through at least one of a side wall, a bottom wall and a combination thereof of such housing. An attachment mechanism is operably connected to such aperture. A hose is releasably attachable at a first end thereof to such housing via such attachment mechanism and receives collected water flowing through such aperture into such hose. Such water exits a second end of such hose for dispersal to a predetermined area.	07-22-2010
