A super-saturation method for information-media substantially relates to a three-body cooperation to direct information to an electronic media consumer (reader, surfer, viewer, listener, etc.). Embodiments of the present invention facilitate a first media body substantially offering out of context information placement using a second cooperating media body. A facilitator body preferably guarantees that a consumer of the second media is a known consumer of the first media. Accordingly, the second media body presents an out of context information placement. For example, an exclusive members-only Internet site “AAA” is oversubscribed with potential paying advertising content at $100 CPM. This exclusive site then offers unfulfilled advertisers an option to present their advertisements to certified “AAA” viewers, albeit on a non-AAA Internet site, for $50 CPM. The facilitator locates a certified AAA viewer at an Internet site “BBB” that normally charges $30 CPM. A facilitated contract(s) between AAA, BBB, and the facilitator divides a new revenue stream of $20 CPM between them—and each of the three bodies benefit.

The invention relates to a device and to a method for determining the position for a working part of a tool on a working machine with a position-determining apparatus (2, 4, 5, 6; 2, 4a, 4b, 5, 6′; 31, 33, 49, 50, 51, 1′,53). At least one detector equipment (4, 5, 6; 4a, 4b, 5, 6′; 31, 33; 49, 50, 51, 53) is placed at a defined place on the working machine (3; 52) in order to determine the position of this position in a fixed coordinate system. At least one positional relationship device (11) determines the positional relation of the working part in relation to the detector equipment in a machine-based coordinate system. A calculating device (20) calculates, with signals from the position-determining apparatus and the positional relationship device, the position of the working part in the fixed coordinate system. The position-determining apparatus comprises an inclination- and orientation-measuring device (5, 20; 4a, 4b, 20; 31, 20; 51, 20) so that the apparatus measures both the instantaneous position and orientation of said position of the working machine in the fixed coordinate system. The calculating device (20) converts the measuring result from the position-determining apparatus and the positional relationship device in order to give the instantaneous position and / or orientation of the working part in the fixed coordinate system.

An animated toy alarm clock resembles a stuffed puppy, kitten, or other lovable creature. When the alarm is armed, the creature rotates or bows its limbs so that its body assumes a sleeping position. It may emit audible purring or other soothing noises for the relaxation of its owner. When the alarm goes off at the preset alarm time, the creature rotates or stretches its limbs so that its body rises into an awake position. It may emit barking, meowing, or other excited noises to awaken its owner to the world. The alarm clock may be conveniently disguised as a pet tag hung around an animal collar.

A kitchen hand tool for crushing, slicing, or juicing food products. The tool is operated by closing two handles that rotate a drive gear that engages the ratcheting tooth portion of a crush paddle resulting in the movement of the crush paddle toward a basket, crushing and discharge of the food item through the basket. A drive pawl forces the drive gear to rotate counterclockwise, which in turn forces ratcheting tooth portion and subsequently the crushing paddle down in a clockwise direction applying crushing force on the garlic or any item placed in the crushing area. As the drive gear turns until it clicks past a locking pawl. This cycle of opening and closing the handles is repeated until the crush paddle is fully advanced and can move no further and is against the basket.

The invention relates to a method of manufacturing rimless spectacles in which fasteners of the lugs and the bridge of the spectacles are adhesively bonded to the front side or the rear side of the lenses. In the method first of all two lens blanks are manufactured of a plastic material to the front and rear side of which a coating is applied. The two coated lens blanks are cut and ground in a way that two lenses having a desired lens shape are obtained. At predetermined mounting positions for the fasteners of the lugs and the bridge on the front or rear side of the lenses the coating is removed so as to form joining surfaces which substantially correspond to the joining surfaces of the fasteners as to shape and dimensions. The fasteners are then adhesively bonded to the front side and / or to the rear side of the lenses at the mounting positions. Since in the area of the joining surfaces at the lenses the base material thereof is exposed, a permanently firm adhesively bonded joint can be produced between the fasteners and the lenses on the front or rear side thereof using adhesives known per se.
