Systems and methods are described that provide a fast and simple way of administering a drug program related to livestock. Specifically, accurate, automated livestock-to-carcass, meat product, or organ identification systems are provided that can receive, compile and analyze information regarding the condition of a carcass, meat product, or organ in a form that is readily readable, transferable to others, and associated with, or linked to, other information such as the feedlot, lot and / or animal of origin as well as the presence or absence of an administered drug, combination of drugs, or drug program.

The invention discloses a music on-line audition method and a device, relating to the mobile communication technology, which is designed so as to solve the problem that a user downloads loath music and pays extra cost as in the prior art as a mobile terminal user can not audition before downloading music. The music on-line audition method comprises the steps of: (1) downloading music needing to beauditioned by the user to a cache of a mobile terminal; (2) judging whether data volume of the downloaded music is larger than a first desired value, if yes, turning to a step (3); if not, continuously carrying out the step (1); and (3) playing the downloaded music.

A force limiting device for use with a safety belt retractor is provided. The safety belt retractor includes a spool and a safety belt webbing attached to and wound around the spool for payout of the webbing under the influence of forwardly directed movement of a vehicle occupant. The force limiting device comprises a fixed member, a shaft connected to the fixed member and a coupling received on the shaft and operatively connected to the spool. The coupling is configured to move along the longitudinal extent of the shaft towards the fixed member during payout of the webbing. Engagement of the coupling with the fixed member prevents further payout of the webbing. The shaft is configured to limit movement of the coupling along the shaft during payout of the webbing to control effective belt force on the vehicle occupant during a crash condition.

The invention provides a liquid crystal lens, comprising an upper glass substrate; a lower glass substrate; a first electrode layer arranged on the side of the upper glass substrate facing the lower glass substrate, the first electrode layer is a whole-surface conductive material; arranged on the lower glass substrate Facing the second electrode layer on the side of the upper glass substrate, the second electrode layer includes several strip electrodes and is opposite to the first electrode layer; the liquid crystal layer arranged between the first electrode layer and the second electrode layer; The thin film layer on the side of the second electrode layer facing the liquid crystal layer; also includes: a liquid crystal solidified layer arranged between the thin film layer and the second electrode layer. The present invention also provides a liquid crystal display device including the above-mentioned liquid crystal lens and a manufacturing method of the above-mentioned liquid crystal lens. The implementation of the liquid crystal lens and the liquid crystal display device provided by the embodiments of the present invention solves the problem of extra cost incurred by manufacturers in the production of liquid crystal display devices in the prior art, and reduces the phenomenon of interface scattering during light transmission.

It is an object to prevent payment of a medal to a person other than the right person who could be authenticated, and another medal keeping and paying apparatus can be installed inexpensively, and management is easy. To achieve the object, the system comprises medal keeping and paying apparatuses 1A and 1B each having medal keeping means 41, medal paying means 43, right person information inputting means 11, operation information storing means, right person information storing means, memory 63, and processing section 21. The processing section 21 outputs a payment signal to the medal paying means 43 based on count information of deposited medal stored in the operation information storing means 65, and controls the payment of the deposited medals. The processing section 21 includes a network interface 3, and inputs, stores and renews the count information of at least the medal keeping means 41 and right person authorization information through the network interface 3, and the processing section can access the operation information storing means 65 through the network interface 3.

The invention provides an information processing apparatus, a recording medium, and an information processing method; the information processing apparatus includes a reception unit that receives payment by a recommended payment method determined according to a determination criterion for determining the recommended payment method from among one or plural payment methods payable by a user, in a case of receiving a payment request from the user.
