Abstract: A computer-implemented method for validating the origination of an incoming customer call on a wireless communication network may include receiving a SIP invite message at the wireless communication network when the call is initiated, determining whether the SIP invite message includes one or more indicators indicating that the call originated within the wireless communication network from a device with a SIM registered in the wireless communication network, and writing a classification code to a database indicating that the call is validated if the SIP invite message includes the one or more indicators. The method may further include receiving the call at an agent computer device with caller identification information, querying the database via the agent computer device according to the caller identification information to obtain the classification code of the customer call, and suppressing a step used for call authentication if the classification code indicates that the call is validated.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a one-piece sabot for holding a sub-caliber projectile. For use in muzzle loading and other firearms, the sabot includes a plurality of petals which, in one embodiment, encapsulate the projectile. The petals have a high mass portion near the barrel end of the sabot. The portions are subjected to a centrifugal opening force as the sabot exits the firearm barrel upon firing. The centrifugal force causes the petals to clear the flight path of the projectile quickly so that the sabot is less likely to interfere with accurate projectile flight. In one embodiment, the sabot may further include a protective surface for engagement with a ram rod and for protection of the encapsulated projectile, for increased aerodynamic stability.
