Inventor: KHUNE ABHIRAM G
IPC: H04W12/128
Filed: 2008-04-30
Abstract: Described is a technology by which a communications identifier such as a telephone number is used in selecting relevant content (e.g., an advertisement) for outputting as audible and/or visible information to a destination device. The communications identifier is used like a search term / keyword to determine content relevant to that identifier. A telephone number may be the identifier, selected based on a partially-dialed or actually dialed number, or a user's current scrolling position among listed telephone numbers. A telephone number of an incoming call may be used as the identifier. Profile data and/or state data may be used in selecting relevant content. Some of the profile data may be mined based on previous user activities. In one example, the content may be provided via a remote source of the content, and used immediately or cached for later use (e.g., output).

Patent CA-2651422-A1 (CA)
Inventor: GRAVES JOHN
IPC: A21D8/00
Filed: 2007-05-18
Abstract: A laminated dough having alternating layers of layer dough and shortening that can be frozen, stored, thawed in a retarder, and baked in an oven absent a distinct proofing step. The laminated dough includes vital wheat gluten of at least about 3% by weight of the layer dough. The elevated level of vital wheat gluten provides the layer dough with increased strength and gas holding capacity, which ultimately results in a higher baked specific volume than traditionally prepared laminated dough products. The elevated level of yeast increases the leavening rate during thawing, therefore eliminating the need for a distinct proofing step in a proof box before baking. Following baking, the resulting laminated dough product is similar in taste and visual appearance as a laminated dough product prepared with a traditional thaw, proof, and bake procedure. A baked product made from the laminated dough can have a baked specific volume of at least about 4 cc/g to about 6 cc/g.
