Abstract: The present invention concerns systems, apparatus, methods and compositions for production of improved animal feeds from by-products of ethanol production or similar facilities, such as DDG or DDGS. In preferred embodiments, the methods may comprise initial removal of water by mechanical devices, pelletizing the material, and further water removal by microwave treatment. Optionally, various supplements such as enzymes, vitamins, minerals or other nutrients may be added. In more preferred embodiments, the action of the enzymes in breaking down complex molecules in the mixture is enhanced by microwave treatment. Most preferably, the mixtures are maintained at relatively low temperatures to preserve enzyme activity and/or nutrient and feed quality.

Abstract: A television and Internet system combine a television receiver and an Internet access subsystem. The system includes a television with the usual subsystems including a tuner, color demodulator and R-G-B video amplifiers, deflection amplifiers and high and low voltage power supply, audio amplifier and on-screen display processor including a vertical blanking interval decoder. The system additionally includes a microprocessor which supports serial communications, RAM, Flash memory and ROM for storing the operating system, Internet communications protocol and Internet browser software, graphics display controller and network interface. The microprocessor decodes Internet addresses encoded and transmitted via the vertical blanking interval and provides direct access to the Internet through the television receiver.
