  • Patent number: 9858247
    Abstract: A computing device includes a view control that manages presentation of electronic content on the computing device. The presentation can include displaying content, audibly playing back content, and so forth. The view control is made available to multiple different applications on the computing device. To use the view control, an application provides to the view control an indication of a resolver for the view control to use. The electronic document includes references to electronic content, and the view control requests the referenced electronic content from the resolver. The resolver obtains the referenced electronic content, decodes (e.g., decompresses, decrypts, etc.) the obtained electronic content, and returns the decoded electronic content to the view control for display or other presentation.

  • Patent number: 5525241
    Abstract: A water treatment system including a tank for containing a solid treatment product such as a solid halogen. The water treatment system is adapted to be used in combination with a cooling system wherein treated water is fed to the cooling system through an outlet conduit leading from the tank. Drainage of water from the tank is facilitated by use of an eductor connected to an inlet conduit for the tank whereby water is drained from the tank to the inlet conduit and back to the outlet conduit, and is thereafter conveyed back to the cooling system. Thus, a closed system is formed by the treatment system in combination with an associated cooling system wherein the closed system is substantially environmentally safe in that drainage of the tank outside of the closed system is avoided.
