Abstract: The format of the Presence Information Data Format-Location Object (PIDF-LO) as defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) is extended or modified to accommodate, within the standard PIDF-LO format, an association of geospacial location to virtual content on the Internet. A filename of virtual content is associated with geospatial location information (either a specific location, zone, or direction). The filename is inserted into a <presence . . . > section of a Presence Information Data Format-Location Object (PIDF-LO) compliant document as defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). In this way, geospacial location information is associated with Internet based virtual content using a standard PIDF-LO format.

Abstract: A content server enables a content creating device to send media content to a target consumer/destination device with an uncommon media format by transforming media content transmitted or uploaded by a content creator into media content that is either routable or accessible to a target consumer/destination device. In particular, a content creating device embeds captured media content and an address of a target consumer/destination device into a content transformation message and then routes the content transformation message to the inventive content server. The content server then receives the content transformation message and transforms embedded media content into either a routable SIP signaling message with actual media content or a routable SIP signaling message with retrievable media content. Once media transformation is complete, the content server sends the routable message with actual/retrievable media content to the target consumer/destination device indicated in the content transformation message.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for raising, leveling, and supporting a foundation by placing steel piers beneath the necessary peripheral and interior beams and using a jack to raise the slab beams, then allowing the slab beams to rest on piers. The piers are constructed from steel piling segments, driven into the ground, connected with adhesive, and anchored at a depth offering reactive force sufficient to support the foundation. The piling is pointed at its bottom facilitating insertion and preventing upheaval. A crown is attached to the upper most end of each pier which offers a platform to provide a stable support once the jack is removed and easy access to the slab beam for later readjustment. Multiple piers are utilized to achieve a level foundation. Piers may be placed beneath interior beams on a slab without drilling holes in the interior of the slab.
