Abstract: A system for screening and routing incoming phone calls or text messages that includes an interceptor device which is operatively engaged with the phone and is arranged to receive all incoming calls or texts to the phone. When an incoming call or text to the phone is received by the interceptor device, programming provided in the interceptor device compares a phone number associated with the incoming call or text with a list of stored contact phone numbers. The incoming phone call may be disconnected if the phone number associated with originating the incoming call or text fails to match any of the stored contact phone numbers. The incoming call or text is routed to a known or designated contact from the stored contact phone numbers for approval.

When an incoming call to the phone is received by the interceptor device, programming provided in the interceptor device compares a phone number associated with the incoming call with a list of stored contact phone numbers. The phone is caused to ring if the phone number associated with originating the incoming call matches one of the stored contact phone numbers. The incoming phone call is disconnected if the phone number associated with originating the incoming call fails to match any of the stored contact phone numbers.

Abstract: A method of processing sheet stock in the creation of plastic cards, such as gift cards or credit cards that include special effects and/or security measures. A card formed by such methods is also disclosed. The method provides for two or more dissimilar materials to be bonded together while maintaining the integrity of the card and as any graphics, security features, and/or special effects provided thereon. Thermoset and thermobond adhesive layers are placed between a first material layer and a second material layer of the sheet stock. The thermoset and thermobond adhesive layers allow the first and second material layers to move independently and to expand and contract at different rates relative to each other. The adhesive layers enable the sheet stock to be rolled up for shipping or storage and further enable the end product produced therefrom to have a planar profile.

Abstract: The invention provides a free flowing copolymer between disparate plastic layers to thermally balance between the two differently expanding/contracting materials. The “primer” layer or “thermal balance layer” fully encapsulates the PET layer and can absorb the difference between the internal PET layer with any layer bonded to the encapsulated PET without cracking, bending or pitting and can “reset” into position when the heating/cooling has ended to make planar plastic core sheets for products such as credit cards, gift cards and the like.
