Abstract: Systems and methods for triggering emergency mass notifications include an EMNS activation service, a plurality of activation premises devices, a plurality of EMNS provider services, and a plurality of event personnel devices. The EMNS activation service includes a universal translator module that receives an event trigger signal relating to an emergency event from one of the activation premises devices. The universal translator module translates the event trigger signal to event-specific EMNS protocols of the EMNS providers. The EMNS activation service communicates the event-specific EMNS protocols to the EMNS providers, and communicates event data to event personnel devices based on a list of event personnel devices to be notified of an emergency event. An activation premises device includes a housing event with trigger controls for creating the event trigger signal, wherein these event trigger controls are inaccessible to users in the absence of an authorized access or an emergency access.

Abstract: A sea water harvesting process includes the steps of collecting sea water, filtering the sea water, passing the filtered sea water through a high-pressure reverse osmosis membrane to separate the sea water into de-salinated water and concentrated sea water, delivering the concentrated sea water to an evaporator, heating the concentrated sea water in the evaporator under vacuum to produce calcium sulphate, sea salt and a super-concentrated sea water. Downstream of the evaporator the super-concentrated sea water is heated to produce a concentrated mineral liquor containing sea minerals in a concentration of about 42%.

Abstract: A method is disclosed in which a vapor-deposited coating or layer is directly or indirectly applied to at least a portion of the internal wall of the barrel of a capped pre-assembly comprising a barrel, optionally a dispensing portion, and a cap. The cap is secured to the barrel and at least substantially isolates the distal opening of the dispensing portion from pressure conditions outside the cap. A vapor-deposited coating or layer is applied directly or indirectly to at least a portion of the internal wall of the barrel while the pre-assembly is capped. The coating or layer is applied under conditions effective to maintain communication from the barrel lumen to the exterior via the front opening, optionally further via the dispensing portion lumen if present, at the end of the applying step. The capped pre-assembly can be pressure tested easily and rapidly, for example with a test duration between 1 and 60 seconds, to determine whether it has container closure integrity.

Abstract: RJ-45 style communications jacks include a housing having a plug receiving cavity that is defined, at least in part, by opposed upper and lower surfaces. A first guide protrudes from the upper surface into the plug receiving cavity. A first channel is formed in the lower surface. The width of this first channel is greater than the width of a housing of an RJ-11 style communications plug but less than a width of a housing of an RJ-45 style communications plug. Moreover, the length of the first channel is sufficient to allow the RJ-11 style communications plug to be fully inserted within the plug receiving cavity.
