| 20090158108 | ERROR DETECTION AND RECOVERY USING AN ASYNCHRONOUS TRANSACTION JOURNAL - Illustrative embodiments provide a computer implemented method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for error detection and recovery using an asynchronous transaction journal. In an illustrative embodiment the computer implemented method receives a request message from a requester, stores the request message in the asynchronous transaction journal and determines whether a sequence number contained within the request message is equal to a predetermined number. When the sequence number is equal, the computer implemented method performs a request in the request message to obtain a result and returns the result to the requester; otherwise the computer implemented method detects an error. The computer implemented method then attempts recovery from the error; otherwise the computer implemented method notifies the requestee. | 06-18-2009 |

| 20110072707 | HOOK REMOVAL TOOL - A hook removal tool primarily for use in the removal of fish hooks. Hooks attached to a line and which are at least partially embedded in a fish or other substrate can be extracted using this tool. The tool includes a body with a handle at or adjacent a proximal end, and having a guide member pivotally connected at or adjacent a distal end. The guide member has at least one guide aperture or slot adapted to engage with the line or hook in such a manner that the line and at least the shank of the hook are able to slide through the aperture or slot. The tool can be slid down the line to the hook and used to dislodge the hook and then to remove the hook out of the fish's mouth. | 03-31-2011 |

| 20090091503 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR TUNING AN ANTENNA - Method and system for tuning a tunable antenna uses a comparison between a signal response at two different tuning frequencies to determine how or if the tuning needs to be further adjusted. With the approach, the method and system arrive at a frequency shift that is centered about the desired antenna frequency, which point there is no net change in the signal response. In a further aspect, a frequency to which a tuned antenna is tuned is shifted to verify whether the antenna is still in tune. Modifications to minimize disturbance of the output received signal that would otherwise be caused by the frequency shifting are contemplated. | 04-09-2009 |
