Patent CA-2583145-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BOAMFA MARIUS I
IPC: G11B7/0045
Filed: 2005-09-26
Abstract: A method and a device for writing data marks to an optical disc or a master disc are disclosed, the data marks to be arranged along at least one metatrack, which is formed by a number of coplanar parallel sub-tracks. The method comprises a step of superposing a rotational motion and a radial motion of the disc and of a writing beam spot on the disc relative to each other. The radial motion comprises a motion component in a first radial direction and periodically repeated jumps in a second radial direction opposite to the first radial direction. The radial motion is a superposition of a) a first radial motion component (18), by which the radial position of the writing beam spot as a function of the angular position with respect to the rotational motion is changed steadily with a first slope, and b) a periodic second radial motion component (20), one period of which, plotted as a function of said angular position, is divided into aa) a first interval (20.1), in which the radial position of the writing beam spot changes with a second slope either in the radial direction of the first radial motion component or in the radial direction opposite thereto, and bb) an adjacent second interval (20.2), in which the radial position of the writing beam spot on the disc changes in a radial direction opposite to that of the superposition of the first (18) and second radial motion components during the first interval (20.1), and with a third slope having an amount larger than the amount of the sum of the first and second slopes. Also disclosed is an optical disc or master disc produced by the method of the invention.

Title: Weight reduction and maintenance method for animals
Inventor: BROWN JAMES H
IPC: A23L33/20
Filed: 2005-12-06
Abstract: Disclosed is a "Pet Food Formulation System" (PFFS) that promotes weight loss in pets consuming ad libitum or in controlled rations. The PFFS comprises jojoba meal (JM) in the form of whole fat jojoba seed flour (WFJSF), expeller pressed jojoba seed meal, and/or solvent extracted jojoba seed meal, in combination with simmondsin concentrate (SC) and jojoba oil (JO). Disclosed combinations are designed to both reduce the quantity of pet food consumed by the pet and at the same time reduce the level of calories contributed by the food that is consumed. Simmondsin concentrate and the natural simmondsin content of jojoba meal contained in a pet food for consumption by either dogs or cats serves to reduce pet appetite and, therefore, the amount of food that the pet is inclined to consume. The reduced food consumption is not due to reduced acceptability of the food by the pet, rather by operation of reduced appetite produced by the simmondsin in the pet food formulation.

Patent CA-2611709-A1 (CA)
Title: Drainpipe heat exchanger
Inventor: MACKELVIE WINSTON
IPC: F28D7/16
Filed: 2007-11-30
Abstract: The present invention is a jacket-type heat exchanger which may, for example , be used to replace or fit over a section of drainpipe to heat fresh cold water using th e waste heat in the drainwater. Normal cold water pressure is used to create an internal-expandi ng force on the inner thermal contact wall of the jacket, which, in turn, creates an enormous heat - transfer clamping force on the drainpipe for fast heat transfer. A longitudinal gap in the jacket (or a two-piece jacket) enables clamping movement. An external sleeve resists bulging of the outer jacket wall. The heated cold water is plumbed to a faucet or water heater so as to reduce hot water use, which, in turn, reduces energy use and related environmental damage. Double- wall construction and venting for visible leak detection satisfies plumbing code requirements. A horizontal embodiment discloses a two-piece plastic-copper drainwater heat exchanger. U se on vehicular exhaust pipes is also contemplated for providing instant interior heat and/or motor warm-up.

Title: Resolution of ip addresses associated with a telephone number utilizing query flags
Inventor: STAFFORD MATTHEW WAYNE
IPC: H04M3/00
Filed: 2006-09-25
Abstract: Queries for IP addresses associated with a telephone number are conducted in accordance with query flags contained with an ENUM record. A query flag indicates the type of query to be initiated against the DNS databases. The query flag provides a means for interpreting the domain name portion of the URI contained in the ENUM record. Query flags provide an explicit indication as to the type of query to be performed against the DNS and provide an explicit indication as to how the domain name portion of a URI in an ENUM  record should be interpreted. Query flags also provide guidance pertaining to subsequent actions to be performed. The use of query flags eliminates ambiguities associated with making assumptions about the domain name contained in an ENUM record. Thus, the use of query flags can reduce latency, reduce the load on transmission links, and reduce processing load on network elements.
