A chronograph assembly for emitting an audible message at the top of each hour includes a clock structured to have a pair of hands indicating a time of day. The clock is coupled to a support surface. A processor is coupled to the clock. An electronic memory is coupled to the clock and the processor. The electronic memory stores a recorded audible message comprising the words 'It's five o'clock somewhere'. A control is coupled to the clock and the electronic memory. The control selects an aural quality of the recorded audible message. A speaker is coupled to the clock and the processor. A sensor is coupled to the clock and the processor. The sensor detects a position of the hands on the clock. The processor is actuated when the hands are positioned in a trigger position. The speaker emits the recorded audible message when the processor is actuated.

A novel bracket assembly enables secure retrofit mounting and positioning of a mobile electronic device (MED) such as smart phone, portable GPS navigation appliance, iPod/MP3 player, or satellite radio to an ideal, driver-convenient locale. The vehicle-specific bracket system design provides for easy driver-line-of-sight device-interaction without causing interference with vehicle operation, windshield visibility, ventilation, or switch controls.

Checkout counter divider bar tracks

The invention is a system for securing a hairpiece to a defined portion of a person's scalp. The system comprises:

Magnetically secured hairpieces

A checkout counter advertising display includes visible information containing for example an advertisement displayed through a transparent or translucent portion of a countertop of the checkout counter. A customer can signal an operator at the checkout counter that he/she wants to buy merchandise advertised in the display. The signalling can be performed orally or visually, or by activating a signalling device on the countertop.

Checkout counter advertising display

A checkout counter order divider bar includes merchandise to be purchased and which is displayed through transparent walls of the divider bar. A customer signals an operator at the checkout counter orally or visually that he/she wants to buy the merchandise in the divider bar or by activating a signalling device on the order divider bar.

An article molded from ethylene hydrocarbon copolymers, which articles have superior stress crack resistance and low temperature toughness.

Article molded from ethylene hydrocarbon copolymer

A flexible co-extruded three layer film comprising outer layers of high pressure, low density polyethylene and a core layer of low pressure, low density polyethylene. The film is produced by a blown film tubular extrusion process at conventional rates and temperature and yet is free of melt fracture even though the low pressure, low density polyethylene would otherwise exhibit melt fracture.

Three layer film having a core layer of low pressure, low density

Heterogeneous ethylene based hydrocarbon copolymers having high tear strength properties in film form, formed from ethylene, C.sub.3-4 monomer and C.sub.5-8 monomer with a molar ratio in the polymer of (C.sub.3-4 /C.sub.2) of about 0.006 to 0.09, a (C.sub.5-8 /C.sub.2) ratio of about 0.003 to 0.07 and having a Chain Branch Factor of about 0.2 to 0.8 and a narrow molecular weight distribution; a gas phase process for making such polymers, and film made from such polymers.

High tear strength polymers

Heterogeneous ethylene based hydrocarbon copolymers having high tear strength properties in film form, formed from ethylene, C.sub.3-4 monomer and C.sub.5-8 monomer with a molar ratio in the polymer of C.sub.3-4 /C.sub.2 of about 0.006 to 0.09, a C.sub.5-8 /C.sub.2 ratio of about 0.003 to 0.07 and having a Chain Branch Factor of about 0.2 to 0.8 and a narrow molecular weight distribution; a gas phase process for making such polymers, and film made from such polymers.

Ethylene copolymers having a density of .gtoreq.0.91 to .ltoreq.0.96 and a melt flow ratio of .gtoreq.22 to .ltoreq.32 are readily produced in a low pressure gas phase process at a productivity of .gtoreq.50,000 pounds of polymer per pound of Ti with a particulate catalyst diluted with an inert carrier material and formed from selected organo aluminum compounds and a precursor composition of the formula:

Preparation of ethylene copolymers in fluid bed reactor

A process for making film from a narrow molecular weight distribution low density ethylene hydrocarbon copolymer, which process comprises extruding said copolymer through a die gap of greater than about 50 mils. The film exhibits an excellent balance of optical and mechanical properties.
