Patent CA-2543509-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WALLIN BRAD
IPC: A63B57/00
Filed: 2006-04-13
Abstract: This innovation is a modified putter grip end cap capable of magnetically retaining a ball marker.  The ball marker will be situated on the top surface of the end cap. The ball marker will adhere to a magnet situated directly below the ball marker in a circular depression. A  raised wall that partially surrounds the end cap also maintains the position of the ball marker. The area of the end cap surface that is not surrounded by the raised wall is designed to aflow for easy removal of the ball marker by the golfer. This innovation increases the functionality of a putter grip by allowing for easy storage and retrieval of the ball marker, which is an essential piece of golf equipment.

Patent CA-2549087-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MORRISON ROGER
IPC: G01R11/63
Filed: 2006-05-31
Abstract: Methods of detecting atypical patterns of usage of electricity, determined by monitoring consumption at the primary line, permit detection of grow-ops and unusual line losses due to defective service lines. A meter having a high resolution is connected to the primary line and the data collected is compared to known consumption patterns thus identifying a potential theft or a loss. Once an atypical pattern has been found, the heat signatures of transformers fed by the primary line are measured. An unusual heat signature alerts the utility to load test the secondary lines of each residence fed from the transformer and thus locate suspect residences which may be grow-ops or to locate a line loss due to defective service lines.

Abstract: A computer-based system is disclosed for the gathering and analysis of data and planning associated with that data captured during or related to events. The system is based on existing core technology that allows for the use of a digital pen land marked with respect to some spatial location on the surface of a computer screen that allows storage of ink data and allows for interpretation of handwritten characters. A  mouse can be used in place of the digital pen, however, it is advantageous to use the digital pen on the surface of a computer screen. Part of the invention is able to capture real time data in dynamic environments where the user must maintain active contact with the scene, allowing only minimal viewing of the computer screen. This minimal viewing component can be applied to, but not limited to, polling, traffic analysis, and sporting events. For the application to team sporting events, the minimal viewing component provides an efficient means for personnel to enter game statistics in real time. The complete system also provides a means of, but is not limited to, generating team and player statistics across a selection of seasons, games or groups of games; capturing both spatial and temporal events; synchronizing digital video with event actions; analyzing contributions of groups of players based on game statistics; maintaining detailed scouting information on a plurality of teams; maintaining detailed scouting and recruiting information on a plurality of individual personnel; channeling a plurality of selected subsets of data; storing a plurality of game plays (formatted and unformatted); preparing and displaying data associated with a league containing multiple teams; and enabling strategic decisions (drills, practices, schedules, goal setting).

Abstract: Evaluating tissue characteristics including identification of injured tissue or alteration of the ratios of native tissue components such as shifting the amounts of normal myocytes and fibrotic tissue in the heart, identifying increases in the amount of extracellular components or fluid (like edema or extracellular matrix proteins), or detecting infiltration of tumor cells or mediators of inflammation into the tissue of interest in a patient, such as a human being, is provided by obtaining a first image of tissue including a region of interest from a first acquisition, for example, after administration of a contrast agent to the patient, and obtaining a second image of the tissue including the region of interest during a second, subsequent acquisition, for example, after administration of a contrast agent to the patient. The subsequent acquisition may be obtained after a period of time to determine if injury has occurred during that period of time. The region of interest may include heart, blood, muscle, brain, nerve, skeletal, skeletal muscle, liver, kidney, lung, pancreas, endocrine, gastrointestinal and/or genitourinary tissue. A global characteristic of the region of interest of the first image and of the second image is determined to allow a comparison of the global characteristic of the first image and the second image to determine a potential for a change in global tissue characteristics. Such a comparison may include comparison of mean, average characteristics, histogram shape, such as skew and kurtosis, or distribution of intensities within the histogram.

Title: Burden sharing in satellite communications
Inventor: SCHIFF LEONARD N
IPC: H04W72/08
Filed: 2005-03-15
Abstract: Systems and methods for burden sharing in satellite based communication systems are disclosed. One or more users in a satellite based communication system may experience signal degradation or signal fading that can occur for an extended period of time, such as when the fade is due to rain fade. The system can improve a communication link with a particular user by varying the data rate. The data rate can be varied by reducing a coding rate to compensate for low signal quality. In a time multiplexed communication system where multiple users time multiplex the available communication bandwidth, the system can concurrently adjust a time allocated to a user based in part on the coding rate. The time allocated to a user can be increased for decreased coding rates in order to maintain a substantially stable symbol rate to the user for each time multiplex cycle of users.

Patent CA-2565639-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MUXLOW MAURICE ALVIN
IPC: A01G27/00
Filed: 2006-10-26
Abstract: An apparatus for automatically watering a plant in a container by regulating a flow of water to the container through flexible tubing. Upper and lower jaw members are interconnected by a horizontal pivot axis so that they develop a scissors action. A jaw area is formed on one side of the pivot axis for receiving the flexible plastic tubing, and a compression spring is mounted on the opposite side to provide resistance to closing of the jaw area. For use with pots and other non-hanging containers, the container is rested atop the upper jaw member on the side towards the jaw area so that the weight of the container acts directly to compress and close the jaw area. Baskets and other hanging containers are suspended from the other ends of the jaw members so that the tension caused by the weight of the container causes the jaw area to pivot closed. Drying of the container reduces its weight so that the spring forces the jaw area open and allows water to flow through the tubing; as water flows into the container, the increased weight causes the jaw area to close and pinch off flow through the tubing. The device is adjustable by increasing/decreasing compression of the spring so as to increase/decrease resistance to closing of the jaw area.
