Abstract: An electronic image that includes information related to a pharmacy prescription of a user of a first account (e.g., a store account) is received from a client device. The pharmacy prescription information is electronically extracted from the electronic image, and a second account (e.g., a pharmacy account) is identified based thereon. Additional authentication information is received from the client device (sometimes in response to a prompt for additional information based on information contained in the first or second accounts), and the first and second accounts are linked if the additional authentication information is consistent with the user.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a vaccine for protecting a piglet against diseases associated with a novel pestivirus. The vaccine commonly includes a pestivirus antigen and, optionally an adjuvant. Methods for protecting pigs against diseases associated with pestivirus, including but not limited to congenital tremors and methods of producing the pestivirus vaccine are also provided.

Abstract: A television includes a television with a remote control. A user interface running on the television ascertains a brand and model number of a device that is to be operated by the remote control and after responsive to such; the television transmits commands to the remote control to program the remote control, thereby enabling the remote control to control the device.

Abstract: An application for a slider bar on a display has a series of ticks, each indicating one or more gradations of a parameter ranging between a minimum value and a maximum value. Two marker icons are on the display screen in relation to the ticks. A user control moves a first marker icon within a predetermined range of ticks. Once the first marker icon reaches an end of travel, if the end of travel is next the second marker icon, the first marker becomes inactive (remaining at its current location) and the second marker icon becomes the active marker icon, moving within a predetermined range for the second marker icon.

Abstract: Disclosed is a set-top box connectable to a display device and a video distribution network that includes a head end, the set-top box and a plurality of other set-top boxes that can store video programs. The set-top box includes a terminal controller responsive to user input and a video sharing program. The terminal controller responsive to the video sharing program displays a menu of available video programs identifying video programs stored at the plurality of other set-top boxes. Furthermore, the terminal controller responsive to user input and the video sharing program selects an available video program from the menu in response to user input, and requests the head end to command one of the plurality of other set-top boxes storing the selected available video program to transmit the selected available video program to the set-top box.

Abstract: A client terminal to provide a video program on demand to a client is connected to a video distribution system and a display device. The video distribution system (VDS) broadcasts a video program to the client terminal including an initial program segment (IPS) and a remaining program segment (RPS). The IPS is broadcast during a first broadcast time interval (FBTI) and the RPS is repetetively broadcast during a second broadcast time interval (SBTI). A terminal controller of the client terminal is responsive to a video control program. During the FBTI, the terminal controller records the IPS in a local memory. During the SBTI, the terminal controller selects the video program in response to a user input and displays the recorded IPS. Further, the terminal controller receives the RPS from the VDS and records it in the local memory. After displaying the recorded IPS, the terminal controller displays the recorded RPS.

Abstract: An application for a television has a detector capable of determining the identity and/or presence of at least one viewer in a viewing area of the television. In response to viewers entering and leaving the viewing area of the television, the television adjusts its operation based upon settings for the currently present viewers (e.g., enables channels, content, etc).

Abstract: A television includes a remote control, at least two inputs and at least one device, each device connected to one of the inputs. Upon a system event such as changing from one input to another input, the television signals the remote control to change operation of at least one function key.

Abstract: A system of and method of accurate positioning of a wireless handset combines a positioning signal with the communication signal. For locations where a wireless handset cannot receive an adequate signal, the system receives a carrier signal either through a donor antenna, exterior the building, or a base station connected to the carrier. In addition to a communication signal, the system adds a location signal to assist the wireless handset in determining the wireless handset's location. The power level of the location signal, a pilot beacon signal, is adjusted so to be sufficiently strong but not at a level that will cause interference with the communication signal. The pilot beacon signal uses a different path than the communication signal to minimize delays. In addition, the system adjusts the offset, either positively or negatively, to account for timing delays caused by hardware and cables. The pilot beacon signal has multiple channels so that each repeating antenna has a distinct pilot beacon signal.
