Abstract: Hydrophobic fabrics and garments made therefrom are provided. The fabrics and garments in accordance with aspects herein comprise at least two seamlessly adjacent woven zones, where the first fabric/garment zone comprises substantially planar surfaces, and the second fabric/garment zone comprises a plurality of integrally raised structures on at least one of the surfaces of the fabric/garment. The integrally raised structures in the second fabric/garment zone are continuously woven/knit with the first zone. The integrally raised structures in the second zone of the fabric/garment are provided on the garments, in accordance with aspects herein, as wipe zones for transferring fluids away from a wearer's skin upon the wearer rubbing their wet skin off on the wipe zone(s).

Abstract: Applicants have created systems, methods, and apparatuses for tracking the display of media-based content in real time. The inventions can include a first media device adapted to output media, a first display unit adapted to display the outputted media, and an apparatus adapted to receive metadata associated with the outputted media and compare the metadata with data. The apparatus can further be adapted to output the media and one or more of a warning indicator and a status indicator if at least a portion of the metadata and the data match as a result of the comparison of the metadata with the data. By tracking the display of media-based content, the inventions described herein can prevent an end user from accessing previously accessed media-based content, restrict the content a given end user is permitted to access, and ensure the licensing terms of a copyright owner's content are properly enforced.
