Abstract: A method is described for efficiently delivering a presentation of web content comprised of a media, such as audio or video content, having defined time increments, together with one or more other content sources, such as images or events to be displayed on a monitor, synchronized so that the one ore more other images or events are displayed at predetermined time increments in the media presentation. Furthermore, the entire presentation is delivered in streaming fashion, so that the end user does not have to wait for the entirety of the content data to be downloaded before starting the presentation, but rather can start viewing and listening to the presentation after a relatively short delay period. The media data and the other content need not reside at a single server source. An authoring tool for creating such composite time-synchronous content automatically determines the necessary information for scheduling player requests to the servers.

Abstract: An automobile rear-view mirror includes a casing to hold a mirror, a flow guide member pivotally disposed at the top of the casing, a rotary vane disposed inside casing, a gear box fastened to the casing at one side and having a first transmission gear driven by a first motor thereof to turn the flow guide member in either direction for allowing outside currents of air to be guided through an elongated opening on the casing toward the mirror to remove moisture from the mirror, and a second transmission gear driven by a second motor thereof to turn the rotary vane causing it to induce currents of air from vent holes on the bottom of the casing into the casing and permitting the induced currents of air to be guided by an angle flange inside the casing toward the mirror to remove moisture from the mirror.

Abstract: An automobile rear-view mirror including a ventilation box attached to the mirror at an inner side adjacent to the automobile for passing a current of air during the movement of the automobile, a flow guide member attached to the mirror thereof at the bottom for guiding the current of air toward the mirror so as to remove moisture from the mirror, and a motor drive controlled to turn the flow guide member on a longitudinal axis thereof to change its angular position relative to the mirror.
