Abstract: A method of distributing electronic content such as music or books via the internet
involves transmitting licence data with the content. The licence data includes status
information indicative of whether the licence is a full licence for content purchased
from a content distributor, or temporary for content passed from a full licence owner
to a new consumer who has not yet paid for the content. Content is transmitted from
one consumer to another for example by PDA wireless transmission, with appropriate
licence status data. Connection of a PDA on which content having only temporary
licence status is stored to the internet automatically activates the content management
program on the PDA to connect to the content distributor and transmit all stored
licence status information. Detection of temporary licences by the content distributor
triggers a request for payment of the content, and payment results in transmission of
replacement licence data having a full licence status back to the consumer. Upon
receipt of payment a reward is sent from the distributor to the person who transmitted
the content (thus creating the temporary licence) to another consumer, as a kind of
sale commission.

liquid sample and including casing parts (14, 15); a casing
part (14) having an inner surface (16) and outer surface
(17), a first cavity (18) for receiving a chip shaped

that first cavity and thereby to the active surface of the
chip shaped carrier; a sealing frame (26) which is part of a
casing part (14) and which is made of a compressible
material, sealing frame (26) being connected to said flat
bottom surface (23) of the first cavity (18); and a locking
frame (31); the shape and dimensions of first cavity (18),
chip shaped carrier (21), sealing frame (26), and locking
frame (31) being so chosen that chip shaped carrier (21)
fits into the space delimited by sealing frame (26) and a
gap (27) which exists between sealing frame (26) and
inclined side wall surfaces (24) of first cavity (18), and
locking frame (31) is larger than gap (27), but locking
frame (31) is however insertable into gap (27) by exerting
pressure on locking frame (31) against casing part (14),
that pressure causing a compression of sealing frame (26)
and a corresponding pressure on a substantial part of the
outer surface of the lateral periphery of chip shaped
carrier (21), which outer surface is in contact with sealing

Abstract: L'invention porte sur une jauge économique détectant l'insuffisance ou l'absence d'huile dans un moteur à combustion interne, puis coupant le moteur. Ladite jauge comporte deux inducteurs de résistance différente placés dans un pont de détection. Les inducteurs, chauffés par une faible tension constante, sont soumis à une tension périodique plus élevée par l'intermédiaire d'une bobine de puissance située sur le même cadre que la bobine d'allumage. Lorsqu'au moins l'un des inducteurs se trouve dans l'air et non plus dans l'huile, le déséquilibre créé dans le circuit de détection, court-circuite le primaire de la bobine d'allumage. En variante, on peut utiliser le détecteur pour fournir une indication visuelle ou sonore du niveau d'huile, sans couper le moteur.

Abstract: A method of cleaning substrates is provided. Prior to, during or prior to and during a cleaning process, fluid is applied to a substrate surface to form a fluid film thereon. Ice crystals are introduced into the fluid film on the substrate surface. The ice crystals have a temperature that is lower than the temperature of the fluid such that the fluid changes the ice crystals into a gaseous state to form a pulse generated in the fluid film. The depth of penetration of the ice crystals into the fluid film is controlled such that the ice crystals do not strike the substrate surface. The substrate surface is cleaned with the pulse.

Abstract: Usage information, such as minutes remaining in a prepaid or monthly block or other unit of allocated services, is provided to a terminal by a wireless communications system, e.g., a system operative to communicate with terminals via terrestrial base stations and/or satellites. The system maintains a subscriber information database including current cumulative usage information for subscribers. The system automatically communicates current cumulative usage information for a subscriber in the subscriber information database to a terminal. The current cumulative usage information may be communicated in a variety of ways. For example, current cumulative usage information may be communicated to the terminal at registration of the terminal. Current cumulative usage information may also be communicated during or at the end of a call. A plurality of usage indications may be communicated to a terminal, a respective one of which is associated with a respective type of usage, such as voice call usage, data call usage, home area usage, roaming usage and the like. The terminal receives current cumulative usage information from the wireless communications system, and indicates current cumulative usage for a subscriber to a user based on the received current cumulative usage information. Different usages may be indicated in different forms, such as by different visual or auditory indicia. Related operating methods for wireless communications system and terminals are also described.

Abstract: A low profile seal assembly for sealing the open end of a container of an electrochemical cell to provide controlled pressure venting, while effectively preventing resealing of the open end of the cell. An electrochemical cell has a container with a closed bottom and an open top end, positive and negative electrodes disposed in the container, a separator disposed between the positive and negative electrodes, and an electrolyte disposed in the container. The cell further includes a seal member disposed in the open top end of the container for closing the open top end of the container. The seal member has a stress concentrator formed in the seal member for providing pressure relief to vent high pressure gases. A cover is disposed in the open end of the container and substantially covers the seal member, and the cover has at least one opening formed therein. A standoff member is located between a top surface of the seal member and a bottom surface of the cover for keeping at least a portion of the seal member at a distance from the cover to prevent resealing of the seal member when the seal member vents.

successively by reacting the obtained reaction mass under
radical generation; and the resin composition has good solution
stability, does not cause liquid phase separation or solid
precipitation, can be used as intact, is excellent in
sprayability at high concentration, and, specifically, has
novel function and effect that adhesion to polyolefin molded
articles is excellent; and the resin composition can be
favorably used for coating and primer because a coated film
