Abstract: A method of identifying an external device that sent a message and then determining whether to process the message based in part on the identity of the external device that sent the message. The implanted device receives a message from the external device and identifies an external device ID in the received message. The external device ID identifies the external device that sent the message. The implanted device then compares the external device ID from the message to a stored list of approved external device IDs. The implanted device processes the message when the external device ID matches one or the approved external device IDs in the stored list of approved external device IDs. However, the message is disregarded when the external device ID does not match any of the approved external device IDs in the stored list of approved external device IDs.

At night he put in shifts as a waiter in McLean, Va., and by day he tried to sell planes. “At 4 p.m. I’m talking to a guy about a $4 million Learjet, and at 6 p.m. I’m getting yelled at to refill some guy’s coffee. It was a humbling experience, and it kept me grounded. Seven or eight months later, I sold a Westwind II to one of the richest guys in Venezuela.” (He claims that as they neared Miami during the delivery, the Venezuelan’s associates pulled a gun and tried to kidnap him to Caracas, but he managed to escape.)

Rollings had a leg-long list of credentials as a musician, arranger and producer. For Popper, one notch in particular—sitting behind the board for Willie Nelson’s Grammy-winning Summertime: Willie Nelson Sings Gershwin—was more than enough. “That’s all I needed to hear because I’m a very big Willie fan.”

Most recently, the sandbox has been used by my two neighbor boys. A few years ago, they gave me a Christmas ornament that was an exact replica of our sandbox — right down to the toys tucked inside.

Thus began Santa Mouse’s Great Adventures, for we could not resist playing with the set-up. Santa Mouse rescued reindeer, revived snowmen, fought GI Joe and Lego monsters, and always won. Who, after all, could beat Santa Mouse?

Allure pointed out that Olsen’s cheekbones were sharpened and her skin darkened. Her hair, too, went from a blonde to something more brassy.

There are two types of soles for clipless pedals. Road racing-style shoes have three threaded inserts for a cleat that sits on the outside of the sole. Mountain bike style shoes take a two bolt cleat that sits in a recess in the sole tread so that the shoes are easier to walk in when you have to get off the bike.

Based on an assumed initial public offering price of $             per share (the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover of this prospectus), purchasers of our common stock in this offering will experience an immediate and substantial dilution of $             per share in the net tangible book value per share of common stock from the initial public offering price. This dilution is due in large part to earlier investors having paid substantially less than the initial public offering price when they purchased their shares. See “Dilution.”
