  • Publication number: 20080260301
    Abstract: A flexible carry bag for carrying one or more sport boards within an interior space. The bag includes an elongate enclosure made of a flexible material. The bag has an opening extending along a length of the enclosure for permitting access to the interior space. The bag has a closure flap movable between an open position for permitting access to the interior space and a closed position in which the closure flap blocks the opening. The bag also includes a closure assembly for securing the closure flap to the elongate enclosure in an overlapped configuration when in the closed position. The closure assembly adjustably secures the closure flap to the elongate enclosure such that an amount of overlap of the closure flap with the elongate enclosure can be adjusted, thereby permitting the circumference of the elongate enclosure to be adjusted.

  • Publication number: 20080126928
    Abstract: A dynamic recording including transition information is provided. Transition behavior of a graphical user interface (GUI) element on a display of an electronic device, such as a mobile terminal, is defined responsive to the dynamic recording. For example, in some embodiments of the present invention, the dynamic recording may be generated responsive to a sensor of the electronic device, such as an audio sensor, a video sensor and/or a motion sensor. The GUT transition behavior may include, for example, a window transition behavior, a menu transition behavior and/or a dialog transition behavior. The defined GUI transition behavior may include, for example, movement, metamorphosis, shape transition behavior and/or color transition behavior. Apparatus and computer program products configured to perform such operations are provided.
