Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method for creating, controlling, and generating event driven customized reminders associated with precise indoor or outdoor locations using one or more small base units, such as a transmitter or beacon, at the desired locations, continual or continuous or movement triggered Short Range Communication (SRC), and software running on a mobile device, such as a mobile phone are described herein. When the mobile device comes within communication range of any base unit employing SRC, e.g., located by the back door or office door, or when the mobile device comes within SRC of any base unit that is triggered by movement of said base unit, where said base unit is mounted on a door, employing an accelerometer and SRC, the system generates a conditional and predefined, by the user, alert and or message on the mobile device and or on the base unit.

Abstract: A method for modifying bids on keywords used in targeted advertising including generating by one or more computers a data map made up of data representing spatially sorted information related to attributes of a plurality of users of electronic devices each located at a respective location within a space and used to access electronic media, receiving from a user computer a bid amount on an opportunity to display an advertisement through the electronic media, and automatically adjusting by the one or more computers the bid amount for each location so that display of the advertisement through the electronic media is spatially optimized based on the spatially sorted information provided by the data map.

Abstract: An oral hygiene tablet or capsule for direct oral delivery of active ingredients to humans and animals is provided composed of a tablet or capsule having an outer shell and inner cavity containing an active ingredient. Active ingredients contained and delivered by the oral hygiene tablet include mouthwash, toothpaste, medicament, mouth soothing and numbing agents, fluoride rinse, joint preserving agents, vitamins and herbal supplements. Other ingredients, such as flavor enhancers, scents, colorings and sugars may be included in the composition of the tablet or capsule. Delivery of the supplement ingredients is effectuated by simply placing the tablet into the mouth and allowing saliva to cause the outer shell to dissolve. The dissolution process can be accelerated by biting of the tablet/capsule and breaking it into smaller particles and/or by drinking water when the tablet is inserted into the mouth.

Abstract: A pet supplement includes a joint preserving and joint rebuilding composition comprising chicken collagen type II, glucosamine hydrochloride and chondroitin sulfate, a vitamin composition comprising vitamins C, D and K, a mineral composition comprising calcium, magnesium, zinc, copper, manganese and boron, a herbal anti-oxidant cofactor blend comprising citrus bioflavonoids, red grapes anthocyanins, turmeric rhizome, boswellia resin and fennel seed. Each of these ingredients is intimately mixed into the pet supplement and orally delivered to the pet in the form of a segment, paste or powder having a size and weight or other dosage measuring feature adjusted in accordance with the pet's weight. A synergistic action between these ingredients preserves and rebuilds the pet's joints, and is nutritionally beneficial for the pet.

Abstract: An edible chew pill jacket receives a pill/tablet or capsule that is to be administered to a pet, animal or human. The edible chew pill jacket includes a flexible top wall, side walls and bottom wall configured to form a chamber appointed to receive a pill. A flexible longitudinal slit is integrated within the top wall for providing access to the chamber for insertion of the pill within the edible chew pill jacket. The edible chew pill jacket is formulated with at least one flavoring to provide a tasty treat appointed to mask the pill's taste. The chew pill jacket substantially encapsulates the pill/tablet appointed to be orally ingested. The chew pill jacket may include medicament therein, nutrients, vitamins, or may simply be provided as a tasty treat to mask the taste of the pill.

Abstract: An interchangeable attachment for an article (such as a head band, hand bag or pocketbook) capable of modifying the look and feel of said article. The article comprises a proximal end, distal end and a central section and is capable of receiving said interchangeable attachment. The interchangeable attachment includes a top wall having a show surface and a back wall having a securing member adapted to engage with the article for removably attaching the interchangeable attachment to the article. The interchangeable attachments have a plethora of designs and may include LED, fiber optic and/or reflective properties. Advantageously, the interchangeable attachments provide aesthetic appeal and allow the ability to design one's own accessory. They also afford enhanced visibility and/or increased safety during dusk or nighttime hours.

Abstract: A brush assembly simultaneously separately controllably releases a fluid and liquid solution directly onto a surface, such as a coat of an animal during grooming, or onto an inanimate surface such as an exterior surface of a land vehicle.

Abstract: The present invention provides a triarylmethane compound and a color filter containing the compound in a blue pixel portion, the triarylmethane compound being capable of providing a colored material which causes little change in hue over a long period of time even under high temperature or light irradiation. For example, when used for preparing a blue pixel portion of a color filter, the triarylmethane compound is capable of providing a liquid crystal display device or the like which can provide a high-brightness liquid crystal display having excellent brightness over a long period of time even under high temperature or light irradiation. The triarylmethane compound contains, as a counter anion for a basic triarylmethane dye cation, a heteropolyoxometalate anion represented by (P2MoyW18-yO62)6?/6 wherein y=an integer of 1, 2, or 3, and the color filter contains the triarylmethane compound in a blue pixel portion.
