Abstract: An apparatus and method for use in raising cattle, and in particular bulls, wherein bulls are: (a) fed a particularly nutritious liquid having a distinctive odor prior to weaning; (b) fed a combination of this liquid and conventional feed after weaning in a feedlot; (c) castrated using a ligation tool that provides a ligating tension to endless elastomeric ligation bands wherein the tool indicates the tension applied to such ligation bands; and (d) treated for infection prevention at least around the time of castration. Accordingly, cattle growth is accelerated due to enhanced nutrition, reduction in disease and a reduction in the stress upon the cattle. Furthermore, late castration of bulls (at approximately 5 to 14 months) is employed, wherein the tool of (c) provides a substantially stress-free ligation technique. Moreover, the meat produced from the cattle processed using the present invention has superior cutability characteristics.

Abstract: The apparatus comprises a data memory containing a series of correspondents' call numbers and, for each call number, at least one associated voice print; a sound transducer suitable for picking up the name of a desired corespondent as spoken by the user of the apparatus; voice recognition means suitable for analyzing the correspondent's name as picked up by the transducer and for transforming it into an associated voice print; selective memory addressing means including associative means suitable for finding a voice print in the memory corresponding to the print supplied by the voice recognition means, and in the event of a match, for addressing the corresponding memory position; and means co-operating with the associative means for applying the addressed call number to the radiotelephone circuits. The voice recognition means evaluate and store a current noise level as picked up by the transducer in the absence of a speech signal; when in the presence of a speech signal, they subtract the previously evaluated current noise level from the signal as picked up; and then they apply the resulting signal as obtained in this way to a DTW type voice recognition algorithm with pattern recognition by dynamic programming adapted to speech using dynamic parameter extraction functions, in particular a predictive dynamic algorithm with forward and/or backward and/or frequency masking.

Abstract: An improved capo for use with various stringed instruments is provided. The capo comprises a frame having a top arm to contact the strings and a side arm, with a jaw member and a lever member both pivotally attached to the side arm. The jaw member contacts the back of the instrument neck when the capo is closed. Mounted on the lever member is a flexible member, having a follower surface that contacts the lower surface of the jaw member during the closing action of the capo and while the capo is closed. An adjustable stop passes through the lever member such that one end of the adjustable stop contacts the lower surface of the flexible member to urge the follower surface into contact with the lower surface of the jaw member. The improved capo of the invention is easier to attach and remove than capos of the prior art, maintains better alignment between the jaw member and the lever member, is less subject to frictional wear, and optimizes the degree of dropoff along the entire useable range of the capo.
