Abstract: Automatic suspension of call and/or short text message service for a mobile device in motion. The speed of the wireless device is obtained or detected, and compared with a predetermined speed threshold to determine whether the speed has reached or exceeded the predetermined speed threshold. If so, suspension of a text messaging service is automatically triggered in response to the speed exceeding or reaching the threshold. Emergency call and/or text messaging capabilities may be retained even during suspension of service. An indication of the service suspension may be displayed on the mobile device. Suspension of the relevant service may be maintained for a predetermined period of time to provide a hysteresis so that when the device momentarily stops but is generally still in a driven situation, the service(s) remain suspended. The wireless device may permit a user to temporarily disable the suspension of service for a given period of time.

Abstract: A multi-chamber cell-culture assembly has provision for even and continuous distribution of nutrient medium throughout each of the chambers. A device is constructed to provide large surface areas for cell growth relative to the chamber volumes. Cell growth, nutrient addition and cell product withdrawal may be carried out automatically.
