Abstract: A cooling system for a beverage dispensing system includes a cooling jacket for placement around a beverage container, such as a keg. The cooling jacket includes a main body having a top edge, an opposite bottom edge, an inner surface and an opposing outer surface. The main body is configured for placement around a side of the container. The main body has a first interior space for receiving the container, wherein the main body is formed of a first insulation material. The cooling jacket also includes an openable and closeable upper body that is for placement above and over a top of the container. The upper body is coupled to the main body such that is lies thereabove. The upper body is formed of a second insulation material. The upper body has a means for closing the upper body for completely enclosing the container within the cooling jacket.

Abstract: Methods (400, 500) and systems (100, 600) for interactively controlling access to a communication network (102) are disclosed. In one embodiment, a user is queried (600) on whether to allow a communication device (118) to access the network (102) and the communication device (118) is allowed access if the user actively gives permission (506). In one embodiment, the methods and systems of this invention allow interactive Media Access Control MAC address filtering of communication devices (118) attempting to access the network (102), for example wireless communication devices.
