Abstract: A system for collecting program data from television systems is provided. The program data is collected at a main facility that distributes the program data to television distribution facilities for use in passive or interactive electronic television program guides. The system allows personnel at television station office computers to access a database of program data maintained at the main facility and to construct program schedules electronically using this database. The system error checks the program schedules in real time as they are constructed. The system allows reports, such as ad trafficking reports for use by television station personnel, to be generated based on the program schedule of a given television system.

Abstract: Embodiments of a microwave dryer are disclosed which may be used to dry or heat materials such a sewage sludge. The microwave dryer uses a reciprocating ram to push the material through a loading section and into a treatment section where the material is subjected to microwaves to drive of liquid content. The material is then pushed into an unloading section where it is removed from the microwave dryer. The dryer may be tilted to adjust the rate of flow of material through the dryer. Air nozzles on the bottom of the dryer direct air such that air flow through the nozzles may also be used to adjust the flow rate of material.

Abstract: A hybrid passive-interactive program guide is generated by combining the features of an interactive program guide with the passive video portion of a passive program guide. The interactive guide may replace passive listings with interactive listings, replace passive features with interactive features, provide supplemental advertisements, or replace passive tagging information with interactive tagging information. Users may be provided with an opportunity to purchase a program or product being advertised, to view listings for segments aired in the video portion of the passive guide, to schedule reminders for listings or video segments that are displayed by the passive guide, or to schedule video segments and related information for recording.

Abstract: Robust sustained release formulations, solid dosage forms comprising robust sustained release formulations, and methods for making and using these formulations and solid dosage forms are provided. Robustness of the sustained release formulation is related to the particle size of the hydrophilic gum. Sustained release formulations resist dose-dumping when ingested with alcohol. The formulations are useful for treating a patient suffering from a condition, e.g., pain. The formulations comprise at least one drug. In one embodiment, the drug is an opioid, e.g., oxymorphone.

Abstract: A method of linking a content object with a network resource presents a content object to a reader, discerns an identifier associated with the content object, transfers the identifier to an indexing system, and in response receives an internet address corresponding to the content object. To enhance the response of the indexing system, it includes multiple routers, which it selects based on location relative to the reader. For example, the method sends user location data to a master system, and in response, receives an address of an indexing system close to the user location.

Abstract: A method and system that registers data carried by a watermark with a server, reads watermark data from a document and generates an action string if a watermark read from a document matches registered data. In one embodiment the system includes two servers. Registration is done on one server via the internet the registration data is sent to a second server. The second server is interrogated via a local area network (LAN) to determine if particular watermark data is registered. The LAN allows data carried on documents such as tickets to be authenticated very quickly. In a second embodiment, there are multiple registration servers, each of which registers a different sets of watermark data. The compartmentalization of data increases security and privacy of data.

Abstract: Disclosed is a reflector for a lighting assembly comprised of a series of discrete facets connected to form an optical reflector. Each facet includes subdivisions that extend uninterrupted along substantially the length of the facet and serve to multiply the image of the light source for increased illumination. Further, the curvature of the facets are selected to maximize the length of the reflected image of the light source to further enhance optical output.

Abstract: Invoices, bank statements, checks, and other transactional paperwork is encoded with a steganographic digital watermark that encodes identification information. When a user shows such a paper (e.g., an invoice) to an optical input device associated with a computer, a browser session is initiated that uses the identification information to transport the user to a web page corresponding to that invoice. The web page provides a variety of functionality, including account review and payment, and customer service.

Abstract: An X-ray source and a detector array are mounted on opposite sides of a generally horizontally extending longitudinal axis of a rotating base. The rotating base is journaled on a tiltable frame. The frame is supported on curved tracks for tilting by translating along a curved path about a fixed transverse virtual axis of rotation which is perpendicular to and intersects the rotational axis of the rotating base. Tilting the frame permits making an X-ray scan through a layer of a patient which is at an acute angle relative to the longitudinal axis. The azimuth drive for the rotatable frame utilizes a toothed belt. A self-acting friction brake is provided for constraining the rocking base. A hoist is provided for making installation and removal of the X-ray source convenient.
