Abstract: Apparatus and a method for deriving a power measurement summation for use in universal mobile telecommunications system user equipment are disclosed. Conversion from a logarithm scale to a linear scale for summation and back again is avoided. The technique obviates the need for a mathematical processor to convert power measurements in a logarithmic scale (e.g. decibels dB, or dBw) into a linear scale (e.g. mW) to sum the power measurements or a ratio. The summed power component is calculated using data stored in the device (e.g. look up tables) without any need for conversion of the scale used.

Abstract: The cardboard packaging (4, 5), either corrugated or compact e.g. for making boxes or containers, has an anti-slip coating on one surface (3) made from a layer of a thermoplastic resin (1) containing hollow polymer microballs (2). The micro-balls are filled with one or more volatile fluids such as pentane, neo-pentane or isobutane, and the coating is applied at a temperature below that of the fluids' phase change. After the cardboard has been cut and folded to make packaging of the required dimensions, heat is applied to it to expand the micro-balls and activate the anti-slip coating. The coating can be applied by a printing process such as flexography, and can incorporate pigments to produce a design on one or more surfaces of the package. The anti-slip properties can be activated after containers have been filled and stacked, e.g. on pallets, with the heat applied by infra-red bars or a heating tunnel.

Abstract: The present discussion generally describes separable playing cards that can be reassembled, methods of separating and reassembling the playing cards, and methods of using the playing cards in a gaming environment. The playing cards are combined from constituent components, which are a face and a back. The face can have a suit marking, a rank marking, or both. The combination of any given face and back represents a pairing. This pairing can be changed or reconfigured by separating the face from the back and reordering at least the faces or the backs. The reordered faces and backs can be assembled back into respective playing cards and used in a subsequent card game. The reordering can be done manually, mechanically, or computationally generated. The playing cards can include unique identifiers that can be read by a machine and used to verify that a sufficient number of the original pairings have been altered.

Abstract: L’invention concerne un procédé permettant des améliorations significatives de la pureté et de la blancheur du sel, lesdites améliorations étant apportées par le traitement de la saumure par de l’alun avant le chargement dans des cristalliseurs afin de fabriquer le sel marin. Les améliorations réalisées sont en partie dues à l’élimination d'impuretés en suspension, telles que du gypse et de la matière argileuse, dans la saumure, lesdites impuretés pouvant sinon être transférées avec la saumure dans le cristalliseur, et aboutir en fin de compte dans le sel, et en partie dues à une amélioration de la taille et de la morphologie des cristaux, cette modification réduisant les impuretés internes au sel. Un lavage en pluie du sel entassé a permis d'obtenir un sel présentant des niveaux d'impuretés de calcium et de sulfate réduits de manière importante, de tels niveaux n'ayant jusqu'à présent pas été obtenus dans la fabrication de sel marin. Le traitement par de l’alun selon le procédé de l’invention ne nécessite pas de temps ou d’infrastructure supplémentaire, et le coût du traitement est calculé comme étant inférieur à 3 U.S. cents par tonne de sel. Le procédé peut être mis en œuvre dans toute saline à évaporation solaire.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a call blocking service which obviates the manual updating of a subscriber's blocking list; a so-called local communication policy. An embodiment includes a plurality of base stations, each capable of wirelessly transmitting across a geographic region and a server. A cell-phone, capable of roaming between regions, is operable to establish a wireless link with the base stations and through the base stations, with the server. The network contains a communication policy determining from which other communication devices a subscriber device can receive voice calls. The communication policy is updated, by the server, based on requests from the subscriber devices. Once a request is received from a subscriber device, the determination whether to update the communication policy can be based on a record of rejections respective to the caller requested to be blocked. Alternatively, the communication policy can be updated according to a trust policy maintained on the server respective to the subscriber device making the request; the trust policy represents the procedure to follow when a request is received from that subscriber device.
