There is a need for degradable films, particularily in agricultural mulch applications. The present invention provides for films having a controlled life from 30 to 160 days. The film comprises photodegradable sheet material having a thickness from 0.1 to 10, preferably, from 0.2 to 5, most preferably from 0.3 to 1.0, mils and comprising a polyolefin sheet and from 50 to 1,000 parts per million of cerium salt of a C.sub.16-20 fatty acid and from 1,000 to 20,000 parts per million of titanium dioxide having a particle size less than 0.05 microns.

A camera is integrated into eyeglasses to allow hands-free recording of video or still images. The eyeglasses also include electronic components, such as a processor for encoding the video and a radio for transmitting the video. The eyeglasses may stream the video to a server, where the video may be viewed my other users. The eyeglasses may connect to a cellular data network to stream the data or connect to a nearby mobile device that relays the streaming video to the cellular data network. The size of the eyeglasses with the integrated camera may be reduced by overmolding wiring and/or electronic components into temples of the frame and coupling components with the integrated camera through the temples and the front frame of the eyeglasses.

An insulating cover for an attic or other opening is provided which mounts on top of a stair frame or framed opening or the like without the necessity of attic flooring, characterized by economical construction, economical shipping, ease of assembly, ease of installation above the opening, and a footprint substantially similar to the frame of the folding stair or the empty opening. The present invention further provides an insulating cover that is rugged enough for continued use yet light enough and supported in such as way as to have an ease of opening, staying open and closing as the consumer needs. In a further embodiment, the invention components may be substantially flat packed for ease of shipping and handling. In a further embodiment, the invention provides a multifunction insulating cover that may be fitted with a ventilation means, such as a louver or powered fan to enable ventilation through the framed opening even though the attic cover would be closed. This embodiment provides a multipurpose function to the cover, thus eliminating the need for a separate roof or ceiling installed ventilation fan. In a still further embodiment, the present invention may be provided with a protective outer layer to better resist impact or weather.

A system for the automatic collection of closed caption text wherein broadcast source of closed caption text are received by a tuner, then decoded and a text handler writes text files. A remote inquiry client is operably connected to the tuner and a server, to push the text files from the inquiry client to the server. A previously submitted search profile originated by the inquiry client is automatically compared with the text files and parsed to create a inquiry client search result, and the useful inquiry client is then automatically contacted regarding the search result.

Technologies provide a heat pipe having a controlled torque resistance. The techniques disclosed herein provide a heat pipe that can function as a coupling device and as a thermal interface between two moving components of a device without the need of a mechanical hinge. In some configurations, a heat pipe comprises a housing having an outer surface and having an inner surface defining a cavity. The heat pipe can also comprise one or more components for transferring heat from a first region to a second region. In addition, the heat pipe is configured to provide a predetermined torque resistance about a first axis that is perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the heat pipe. Components, such as a heat source and a heat sink, that are attached to the heat pipe can be hingeably coupled with a predetermined torque resistance without requiring a hinge and a separate thermal interface device.

Described herein are systems and methods for managing the operation of networked media playback devices. One embodiment includes Graphical User Interface for coordinating playback of media via one or more networked wireless speaker devices. In particular, a user is able to “drag and drop” audio tracks to icons that are respectively indicative of one or more networked wireless speaker devices, thereby to affect playback of those audio tracks via those speaker devices.
