Abstract: An apparatus for preventing impact to a person with an injury or infirmity includes a member that is worn over a portion of the body. Straps or other methods are used to secure the member where desired. The member provides a level of impact protection. The member can include optional cushioning material and a visible warning or audible warning, or both. The warning can be a written message or a well-recognized symbol, for example, a Red-Cross symbol. The written message or symbol or other portion of the apparatus can be illuminated, if desired. The illumination and audible warning can be constant or they can pulse on and off. A proximity sensor detects the approach of others and activates the visible and audible warnings.

Abstract: An apparatus for verifying that a correct number of coins of a particular denomination are disposed in a paper, plastic, or other type of roll includes an inside line or other demarcation along an inner circumference of the roll that includes a thickness that is preferably greater than that of one coin. If, when filling, the line or demarcation is fully visible then too few coins are in the roll. If, when filling, none of the line or demarcation is visible, then too many coins are in the roll. If, when filling, only a desired portion of the line or demarcation is visible, then a correct number of the coins are in the roll. Various shapes and sizes for the inside line and demarcation are disclosed. An optional outer line is also disclosed that is concentric to the inside line.
