Abstract: Fiber reinforcement rods (18) having a combination of reinforcing fiber members (16) coated with a UV curable vinyl ester resin material (30) and a polybutylene terephthalate/polyether glycol or ethylene acrylic acid topcoat layer (32). The reinforcing fiber members may be E-type glass fiber members (24), S-type glass fiber members (26), a combination thereof, or E-type glas s fiber members and/or S-type glass fiber members with high strength synthetic strands of poly(p-phenylene 2,6 benzoisoxazole) fiber members (28). The topcoat layer provides enhanced properties of specific adhesion, enhanced environmental protection, resistance to surface fiber breakage, and to some degree resistance from delamination. The fiber reinforcement rod permits higher translation of strain energy due to reduced defects and residual stresses to allow a tougher and more resilient cured composite rod to be use d. By varying the types of fibers and thickness of the UV coating or topcoat layer, a fiberoptic cable reinforcement rod member that is capable of having a wide variety of tensile strengths and moduli is realized.

Abstract: A method and mechanism for recreating particular data at a remote location within a television system. While watching television, a viewer tags a particular television program which is deemed of interest. The viewer then generates a message including an edit list which identifies the tagged program material and conveys the message to a remote location. The message is received at the remote location by a receiving device. The receiving device is configured to then capture and record the identified program material in response to processing the message. Capture of the identified program material may begin immediately, or may be scheduled for a later time. The receiving device is configured to either determine when the identified program material will next be broadcast, or may be configured to generate a request for the program material from a remote content server. The message may identify a single program, or multiple program selections taken from one or more programs. Also, a television operator may generate different edit lists targeted to different groups within a viewing audience. The edit lists may correspond to profiles based on audience data gathered by the operator. These edit lists are then conveyed to members of the viewing audience. The operator then conveys a broadcast signal including a variety of program material.  Audience member's receiving devices then capture particular portions of the broadcast signal based on the prior received edit lists.

Abstract: A method for measuring the movement of boundaries between different portions of a heterogeneous rock body is disclosed. The method comprises placing a plurality of blast movement monitors 109 in a rock body prior to blasting and noting the position of each blast movement monitor. The rock body is then blasted to break it up into a plurality of pieces. Thereafter the position of the blast movement monitors 109 is located and based on this the boundaries of rock portions can be adjusted to account for the blast. This leads to a more accurate reporting of different ore bodies to the appropriate processor in a heterogeneous rock body. An apparatus for carrying out the method is also disclosed. The apparatus comprises broadly a said monitor 109 and a receiver. The monitor 1 comprises a transmitter 109 received within a casing 111 that in turn is received within a housing 126. Further the casing 111 can move within the housing 126 and self right so that it always transmits its signal in an upright direction.
