Abstract: A method, system and program product for streaming of dynamic information content over an interactive media such as the Internet. The dynamic content, such as dynamic weather data, is collected from a plurality of collection sources such as geographically distributed local weather reporting stations. The data information can be relatively static or dynamic, constantly changing data. The dynamic content is stored in databases maintained on a direct access storage device at the dynamic content server. The selection of dynamic content to be transmitted to the end user client is based on a demographic profile that is completed at the time of end user client registration and which precedes delivery of any selected content in response to end user client requests. An application resident on the dynamic content server streams selected content simultaneously to a plurality of end user client devices for each end user client request.

Abstract: Information from a database containing weather and sports information is customized to the needs of specific broadcaster customers in an editing procedure that is remote in location from the customers. Selected information is formatted and integrated with suitable graphics in the editing procedure to produce a plurality of individualized data streams that are ready for on-air broadcast. Those data streams are transmitted to an Internet web site for on-call customer access, and a customer may then broadcast the data stream as it is received from the web site.

Abstract: An on-line sports information entry and retrieval system employs a dynamic database of local sports web pages linked to a media partner allowing the partner to feature community teams and athletes and to display game scores and statistics as they are reported. The database may be organized on a geographic or dominant market area basis so that teams and individual athletes may be ranked on a regional or national basis.

Abstract: A gas sampling system includes a sample trapping module having a gas pump and a power supply, and a removable magazine that fits within a port of the trapping module. The magazine contains a non-volatile electronic memory, which controls operation of the trapping module, and has a rotating carousel for holding sample tubes. Individual sample tubes are sealed at each end by a cap that has a needle-pierceable septum, and contain a solid collector material to trap chemical and biological contaminants in a gas sample drawn through the sample tube. Individual sample tubes are moved into and out of a sampling location by incremental rotation of the carousel and, while at the sampling location, a pair of hollow bore needles are inserted through the sample tube end caps to allow the drawing of a gas sample through the tube.
