A method for maintaining at least one data connection to a terminal during a changeover from a first communication access network to at least one second communication access network, comprising at least two private user identities and at least two IP addresses are allocated to the terminal in order to form a public user identity for the user of the terminal, wherein the terminal registers itself in an IP communication network in parallel per communication access network with in each case one private user identity and with the common public user identity and an IP address for the first communication access network and the at least one second communication access network.

Disclosed is a method which allows for a fast and efficient establishment of a connection between members of a group, more specifically between a mobile radio user who triggers the establishment of the connection and additional mobile radio users of a group of mobile radio users via at least one mobile radio network. According to the inventive method, a first channel that can be used for transmitting signaling data is set up when establishing the connection. User data, such as language, which is to be transmitted between the mobile radio user triggering the establishment of the connection and other members of the group is also transmitted via said channel in addition to the signaling data until a second channel is also set up for the connection, whereupon user data is transmitted via the second channel.

Herein is provided an anastomosis device which includes a cylindrical support housing having a tapered section being formed of a plurality of compliant fingers integrally formed around the circumference of an end of the cylindrical section which can flex at their connection point to the cylindrical section. Each compliant finger holds a suture needle. The device includes a push rod having a cam head at one end of the rod section. The cam head is located adjacent to the tapered portion. In operation the anastomosis device is aligned with the anatomical tubular structure undergoing an anastomosis process. When a back end of the push rod is pushed towards the tapered section of the support housing, the cam head section bears against an inner surface causing each compliant finger to flex radially outwards forcing the suture needles to simultaneously pierce the wall of the anatomical tubular structure.

A folding endoscope with incorporated optical sensors and light sources includes a housing having first and second ends and a longitudinal axis and at least one channel extending between the first and second ends and associated ports at the first and second ends for inserting surgical instruments through the housing into a surgical site. The endoscope includes at least two elongate arms having proximal and distal ends and being pivotally connected at the distal ends thereof to the first end of the housing. A camera and light source are mounted on each of the elongate arms such that when the elongate arms are deployed the cameras have a field of view in a generally forward direction away from the housing. A linkage mechanism is connected to the elongate arms, and an actuator is connected to the linkage mechanism. The linkage mechanism, upon activation by the actuator, is configured to pivotally deploy the at least two elongate arms from a closed position in which the elongate arms are aligned along the longitudinal axis to an open position with the distal ends of the elongate arms radially spaced from the longitudinal axis.

A game to be modified in accordance with the invention involves a first random outcome and a second random outcome that are combined according to game rules to produce a game outcome. The game is administered by receiving a player request for a specific entry, the specific entry replacing one of the random outcomes and being selected from a finite set of possibilities not determined by chance. The requested specific entry affects the probable outcome of the game. The specific entry is combined with the remaining one of the random outcomes according to the game rules to determine the game outcome. According to one embodiment, the specific entry may be a score such as 18 which replaces the player's hand in the game of blackjack.

Systems and methods are provided to associate a transferable item price with a first consumer and to determine that a second consumer is entitled to purchase an item in exchange for payment of an amount based on the transferable item price. In one embodiment, the first consumer arranges to purchase an item at a first price. The merchant transmits a transferable item price code to the first consumer. The first consumer sends the transferable item price code to the second consumer, such as by including the transferable item price code in an e-mail message. The second consumer transmits the transferable item price code to the merchant to establish that he or she is entitled to purchase the item at the first price.
