Abstract: Systems and methods for receiving product data for products featured in a media asset are described. In some embodiments, the system includes control circuitry that receives from a server data for a plurality of products featured in a media asset. The control circuitry generates for display a list including the plurality of products. The control circuitry determines whether a product in the list is associated with a coupon and/or a preferred vendor. The control circuitry visually distinguishes the product from other products in the list in response to determining that the product is associated with a coupon and/or a preferred vendor.

Abstract: A quick-connect and disconnect securing mechanism is provided for allowing one wearing a protective mask to quickly connect to and drink fluids from a standard drinking fluid container while minimizing the risk of contamination of the fluid or the wearer. The device enables a secure connection of a gas mask to a chemical-biological warfare resistant water pouch to provide safe drinking water in contaminated environments. The securing mechanism is designed to interface with a variety of currently available coupling devices that are typically attached to a protective mask, and particularly for mask drinkstraw systems, and is particularly well suited for an AVON™ type fitting.

Abstract: A hydration system for providing fluid to a user. The system includes a bladder configured to hold a fluid, the bladder having a multilayer outer protective skin of a lightweight, durable thermoplastic laminate. A spout is connected to the bladder and in communication with the inside of the bladder and having a relatively large-diameter fill outlet for filling the bladder with fluid. A cap adapted to engage and close the fill port is included. A drinking tube in communication with the inside of the bladder extends from an exit port and includes a distal end upon which a mouthpiece may be mounted. The fill port includes a three-part closure fitting having a sealing base portion, a sealing closure portion, and a sealing cap portion. Each portion includes flanges having mating ridges and troughs to provide a leak proof seal.
