Title: Remote control system and method for interacting with broadcast content
Inventor: MAGGIO FRANK S
IPC: H04N7/173
Filed: 2003-10-10
Abstract: Interacting with broadcast content (2400). A mass media broadcast network communicates broadcast content to multiple recipients (2405). Broadcast receivers present the broadcast content to the recipients (2415). Client computers transmit a query about a selected portion of the broadcast content (2420). Interactive remote controls each operated by a respective recipient transmit a channel control signal to tune a broadcast receiver to a station channel upon which the broadcast content is presented.

Patent CA-2503252-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HAYS BILL J
IPC: B67B7/40
Filed: 2005-04-19
Abstract: This invention comprises a tool for opening pull-tab type of metal containers which have a circular, recessed top with a weakened separation line about its periphery and a metal pull tab which has an integral loop that is riveted to the top. To open the can, a user bends the loop up sufficiently to grasp and pull the loop, separating the top from the container. The tool of this invention has a shaft terminating at one end with a handle for grasping and terminating at its opposite, working end with an elongated blade. The blade has an open, longitudinal slot forming two longitudinal segments. One of the segments extends beyond the open slot and terminates in a flat blade, which is preferably tapered. The tool is used by inserting the tapered flat blade beneath the loop of the pull tab to raise the tab and the open-ended slot of the tool blade is slipped over the loop. Once the loop is received within the slot, the user simply rotates the tool shaft about its axis. Since this motion only requires hand grasping and wrist motion, it can usually be performed by most persons, including those who super from arthritis or similar disabilities, without undue effort
