摘要:
An audio streaming system includes a handheld computing device that asynchronously streams audio to a storage subsystem. The handheld computing device receives and buffers audio data of contiguous audio samples and, after a predefined amount of contiguous audio samples has been buffered, assigns an index for that predefined amount of contiguous audio samples and asynchronously transmits the index and those contiguous audio samples to a storage subsystem of a broadcast server system. The handheld computing device, upon determining that the predefined amount of contiguous audio samples has been received by the storage subsystem, transmits a notification message to an application server of the broadcast server system that includes the assigned index and indicates that the corresponding contiguous audio samples are stored on the storage subsystem. The notification message causes the application server to fetch those audio samples according to the index and process them for broadcasting to client computing devices.

The present invention provides, inter alia, a method of filling and sealing a beverage container, the method comprising the steps of:a) dispensing a predetermined amount of beverage, preferably wine, into an open-topped container having a circular rim, preferably a plastics wine glass, to leave a headspace above the beverage in the container;b) temporarily tacking a generally flat flexible film lid sized to fit over the open top to the rim of the container at at least one position around the rim while leaving the remainder of the rim free;c) engaging the tacked lid to cause flexure thereof to create a gap between the lid and the rim on one side;d) dispensing an inert gas, preferably nitrogen, through the gap so created and into the headspace to displace air therefrom; ande) bringing a heat sealer into engagement with the lid to heat seal the lid to the rim about its entire circumference, thereby trapping the inert gas within the headspace.

A beverage container is filled and sealed by:a) dispensing a predetermined amount of beverage, preferably wine, into an open-topped container having a circular rim, preferably a plastics wine glass, to leave a headspace above the beverage in the container;b) temporarily tacking a generally flat flexible film lid sized to fit over the open top to the rim of the container at at least one position around the rim while leaving the remainder of the rim free;c) engaging the tacked lid to cause flexure thereof to create a gap between the lid and the rim on one side;d) dispensing an inert gas, preferably nitrogen, through the gap so created and into the headspace to displace air therefrom; ande) bringing a heat sealer into engagement with the lid to heat seal the lid to the rim about its entire circumference, thereby trapping the inert gas within the headspace.

A method includes providing a long-term care insurance product to an insured, determining a benefit pool associated with the long-term care insurance product, the benefit pool based on benefits available to the insured at a future point in time after issuance of the long-term care insurance product and calculated by number of days of benefit chosen multiplied by daily benefit chosen increased over time from issuance until the future point in time by an inflation protection factor, providing an accelerated benefit rider providing for making available the benefit pool associated with the insurance product upon issuance of the product to pay for claims for long-term care, and providing a return of premium rider wherein the return of premium rider provides for returning at least a portion of premiums paid by the insured upon election of the insured provided such election is made before occurrence of a future event.
