Abstract: The user of a handheld wireless communicator, for example a cell phone or so-called smartphone completes a call or email or other communication event. The event is timed by the device or the duration is calculated, or otherwise the event is quantified and the information is stored in for example a log within the device. At the end of the communication event, the telecommunication expense management system provides a pop up user interface asking the user to decide whether to capture the communication event so as to assist in billing the event, to delay capturing the communication event to a future time, to dismiss the communication event as if it had not occurred, or to add the communication event to a list which is of personal interest to the user but which is not in the user's opinion billable or the costs not recoverable or otherwise of a business nature that requires capturing.
Patent CA-2641482-C (CA)

Abstract: The present invention provides a mixed bacterial culture, designated as the culture Atz Mix 1, which originates from the soil exposed to long-term contamination with atrazine and other s-triazine compounds. The culture Atz Mix 1 degrades atrazine at various tempetaures (1O~C to 30~C) in a wide range of atrazine concentrations (several ppb to ten thousand ppm), without formation of toxic metabolites and leading to the complete atrazine degradation (mineralization). Atz Mix 1 is a stable mixed culture consisting of at least four members of different morphological, physiological and catabolic properties. Molecular characterization of the culture Atz Mix 1 showed the presence of catabolic genes trzN,atzB, atzC coding the enzymes for the degradation of atrazine to cyanuric acid and the gene trzD coding the enzymes for subsequent opening of s-triazine ring whereas high degree of mineralization of ring labelled [14C] atrazine (approximately 80%) confirmed that the degradation proceeded to yield CO2 and NH4 +. The microbiological method of degrading atrazine and other s-triazine compounds, which is part of the present invention, is advantageous over the so far described methods using individual bacterial cultures. This is primarily due to the specific growth and catabolic characteristics of the mixed culture Atz Mix 1 used as a biological agent, i.e. due to its capability to express sustained growth and atrazine- degrading efficiency under the conditions similar to those occurring in atrazine- contaminated environment (e.g. varying temperatures, low C/N  ratio, presence of preferential nitrogen source, high atrazine concentrations). Furthermore, it should be emphasized that the inhibition of atrazine degradation in the presence of readily accessible nitrogen sources observed with majority of the so far described individual bacterial strains was not recorded with the culture Atz Mix 1. Accordingly, it can be expected that the microbiological method of the present invention will be suitable for remediation of atrazine-contaminated soils, even those rich in nitrogen, as well as for accelerating the process of atrazine mineralization in waste waters containing high concentrations of s-triazine compounds.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device (1) for processing foodstuffs, comprising an upper part (2), a drive mechanism (10) and a lower part (3) with a working container (30), in which a working unit (60) can be manually driven and made to rotate by means of the drive mechanism (10). The drive mechanism (10) comprises a tractive cable drive and is operatively connected to the working unit (60) by means of a releasable torque-coupled connection. The drive mechanism (10) also comprises a primary and secondary drive unit (101, 102), which are operatively interconnected by means of a gear in such a way that a transmission ratio of between 1:1.5 and 1:4 and preferably between 1:1.8 and 1:1.9 is achieved. The primary and secondary drive units (101, 102) are axially parallel and dimensioned in such a way that at least one of the drive units intersects the rotational axis of the other respective drive unit. Despite the transmission ratio achieved, the dimensions of the drive mechanism (10) can be kept small, allowing said mechanism (10) to be housed without any problems in the upper part (2). The non-employment of two continuous axes, the eccentric arrangement of the drive wheel axis and the use of a drive wheel (14) with inner gearing allow an axial wheel (17) for indirectly driving the drive unit (60) to be mounted on the central axis (4) of the device (1) in a preferred embodiment and the transmission to be achieved by the larger drive wheel (14), without causing the space required in the upper part (2) next to the axial pin (17) to increase by the diameter of the drive wheel (14).

Abstract: A sensor for detecting contact of a fluid delivery probe with a fluid surface and for detecting fluid flow through the probe includes a first electrode disposed along a fluid flow path of the probe upstream from a distal tip of the probe and a second electrode longitudinally spaced and electrically isolated from the first electrode and disposed at the distal tip of the probe. An oscillating signal is transmitted through the first electrode, and at least a portion of the signal is received through the second electrode. Through changes in the received signal due to the distal tip of the probe coming into contact with a fluid surface or due to fluid flow through the conduit between the first and second electrodes, fluid surface contact and fluid flow can be detected. A pressure sensor can be employed to monitor internal fluid pressure within the fluid conduit of the fluid delivery probe as a secondary, redundant means for detecting fluid flow through the conduit.
