Abstract: The invention provides a safety system for use with a refuse collection vehicle having a refuse storage body and a front cabin, the system operating to detect the presence of an object or person in the vicinity of the vehicle and communicate with a lifting operation system. The vehicle has a lifting mechanism for engagement with a refuse bin, the lifting operation system operable to move the lifting mechanism between a lowered position at which the bin is on the ground in front of the vehicle and a raised position for discharge of the bin contents into the interior of the refuse storage body.

Abstract: A method includes accessing a webpage at a web server from a mobile application executing at a mobile device. A mobile application tag may be identified in the webpage, where the mobile application tag is independent of a device type of the mobile device. The method also includes determining that the mobile application tag corresponds to a native device function of the mobile device and accessing the native device function.

Abstract: A method includes sending verification information from a mobile communication device to a second device. The method includes receiving, at the mobile communication device from the second device responsive to sending the verification information, an announcement. The announcement includes purchase information for a first item that is available for purchase via a website. The method includes, after receipt of the announcement, receiving a message at the mobile communication device from the second device for presentation to a user of the mobile communication device. The method also includes, during presentation of the message and responsive to a change in a particular condition associated with the purchase information, receiving updated purchase information for the first item from the second device and changing from presentation of the message to presentation of the updated purchase information for the first item.

Abstract: An audio interface for communicating information regarding an online auction item is disclosed and includes an announcement, wherein the announcement includes information that is associated with the online auction item. The audio interface also includes an authorization prompt to retrieve authentication information and an advertisement.

Abstract: A two-dose autoinjector for a medicament wherein the locking and releasing of the drive spring of the autoinjector is controlled through stepped guides with ramps for two successive slidings of slides operated by the spring and connected with the syringe and plunger. The guides and the slides are pivotable relative to one another and the sliding direction, while the syringe can only slide axially. To enable or disable the sliding of the slides within the guides an angularly angularly mobile arming member is provided formed with a guide track substantially equal to that of the stationary member where the guides are formed.

Abstract: A method of selective call initiation is disclosed and includes receiving data from a computer based auction site. Further, the method includes detecting a notification event by evaluating the data with respect to notification criteria associated with a user account. Also, the method includes initiating a voice based call over a voice network to a communication device identified in connection with the user account. A system is also disclosed and includes a first processing element that is coupled to a network interface to receive data from a computer based auction site. Also, the system includes a second processing element to detect a notification event by evaluating the data with respect to notification criteria associated with a user account. Moreover, the system includes a third processing element to initiate an outgoing voice based call over a voice network to a communication device identified in connection with the user account.

Abstract: A user interface for communicating over a voice channel regarding an item that is available at an e-commerce website is disclosed and includes a speaker to communicate at least one audible voice message and at least one audible non-voice message. The audible voice message can indicate the status of an item and/or the status of an offer to purchase the item. Further, the at least one audible non-voice message can indicate a time period in which user input can be received. Moreover, the at least one audible non-voice message is transmitted concurrently with the at least one audible voice message.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for the encapsulation of uranium metal which comprises treating the metal with an encapsulant which comprises a cementitious material and curing the cementitious material, the process additionally comprising the provision of means for the minimisation of the corrosion of the metal. Suitable modes for the provision of means for the minimisation of corrosion include the provision of a source of oxygen within the cement matrix, either by facilitating enhanced oxygen access from the atmosphere using air entraining agents or cenospheres or by the inclusion of an independent source of oxygen, for example a peroxide. An alternative mode for the provision of means for the minimisation of corrosion comprises facilitating the minimisation of the water content of the matrix, which is conveniently achieved by the addition of superplasticisers. The method allows for the long team storage of uranium metal and provides significant benefits in terms of health, safety and the environment.
