  • Patent number: 9637940
    Abstract: A repair assembly in the form of a temporary mold for repairing holes in plasterboard sheet walls comprises a backing plate for location within the cavity wall formed by the plasterboard sheet against the rear surface of the sheet over the hole to be repaired, a front cover for contacting the front surface of the sheet to close the hole, and a connector for connecting the rear plate and front cover to each other to form the mold, having a mold cavity further defined by the edge of the hole. When the repair assembly is clamped in place by the connector, suitable repair material, such as uncured plaster, is injected into the mold cavity through either the front cover or connector, to fill the hole. After the repair material has set and/or hardened, the connector and front cover are removed leaving a repair region flush with the front surface so that little or no extra finishing of the repair is required apart from filling in the small depression formed by the connector, thereby saving time.

  • Patent number: 8281104
    Abstract: A method includes designating at least three storage partitions on at least two logical drives, placing a first storage partition on a first of the logical drives adjacent to a second storage partition on a second of the logical drives separate from the first logical drives, and creating a third partition among both the first and second of the logical drives. The first, second and third partitions are balanced for storage access symmetry such that the drives bear equal storage placement.

  • Patent number: 8212681
    Abstract: An automated theater warning technique makes use of a digital cinema projection system to provide a display of a visual message indicative of an emergency condition. Upon receipt of a trigger generated in response to an emergency condition, the digital cinema projection system automatically switches from displaying the feature presentation to displaying the visual message. The digital cinema projection system can advantageously display different messages responsive to different conditions.

  • Patent number: 7647342
    Abstract: A system and corresponding methods are provided for enabling the automatic generation of a slate using metadata. The method comprises the steps of: receiving a request to provide a user with a list of video media assets so the user can select a video media asset to generate a slate; providing the user with the list of video media assets and receiving a selected video media asset from the user; acquiring metadata associated with the selected video media asset, creating a preview of the slate by generating fields that are associated with the acquired metadata, generating the slate in response to the user's approval of the previewed slate; transmitting the slate to a video server; and editing the slate into the selected video media asset so the slate and the video media asset can be viewed in conjunction with each other, thereby providing the user (via the slate) with information about the video media asset such as the video media asset's name, duration, database location, etc.
