Abstract: A hook comprising a body having a first coil on a first end and a second coil on a second end. The coils may be spirals curving in opposite directions. The body may be constructed of filament, such as metal wire, and may be hypoallergenic. The coils may be disposed on opposite ends of the body. An aperture may be disposed on the lower side of the body, and may be defined by a loop. A base may interface with the aperture, the interfacing base configured to interface on one side with the body and interface with a jewelry on the opposite side.

Abstract: A method and carrier information system (500) for transferring information to at least one target device is provided. The method can include receiving (105) a request for contact information from a requesting device. The method can further include transferring (110) at least a portion of the contact information to a contact information database of the target device in response to receiving the request.

Abstract: A wireless subscriber device (100) can include a transceiver (102) and a processor (114) coupled to the transceiver. The processor can be programmed to pre-set (202) the wireless subscriber device to a locked mode if a periodic airtime allocation is exceeded for a current billing cycle and lock (208) the wireless subscriber device if the periodic airtime allocation is exceeded for the current billing cycle. The wireless subscriber device can automatically return (212) to an unlocked mode once a subsequent billing cycle begins. The wireless subscriber device can be a cellular phone, a smart phone, a satellite phone, a two-way paging device, or a wireless internet access device.
