  • Patent number: 7125487
    Abstract: A waste product separator includes a plurality of plate gussets which support a top cover plate. Each gusset has opposite ends with an interconnecting declining edge extending from the top plate to the roadway. The respective edges further support a first ramp and a second ramp. Each ramp includes elongated slots so that onrushing waste water flows through the first ramp followed by discharge through the slots of the second ramp. Collection sections are under the top cover plate and in the path of the oncoming rush of waste water and each section includes an oil absorption unit and a toxic waste or product unit so that the waste water must filter through these units to reach a discharge ramp. The units serve as a catch basin for retaining trash.

  • Publication number: 20040153504
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and articles of manufacture consistent with the present invention provide a system and method for sharing and recording information on a wired or wireless computer network during synchronous and asynchronous sessions. A software program uses computers to enhance the collaboration, teaching, learning, presentation, and sharing of information and to record multi-media events for later playback and interaction with these events. Collaboration is enhanced by using features that allow broadcasting presentations, sharing, editing and replying to documents, taking notes, viewing participant information, creating and responding to polling questions, asking and answering questions and providing feedback on the pace and difficulty of the session.

In particular, users may add notes during the recording of a multi-media presentation that are synchronized timewise with the presentation. When the presentation is played back, the notes are displayed at the correct time and space in which they were added.
