A child/infant safety seat provides improved occupant protection, especially in a vehicle equipped with a passenger-side air bag when the seat is positioned with the occupant facing rearward. The safety seat includes a head protector configured to deflect a forward facing portion of the seat downward upon interaction with an inflating air bag. The child safety seat, when occupied, has a center of gravity that causes a belt retaining the seat to be tightened for proper retention of the child seat during a collision and subsequent air bag inflation. The child safety seat can include one or more longitudinal members to strengthen the seat, provide additional head and torso protection, and transfer impact forces away from the head protector.

The invention provides a payment folder having a signal device for communicating to a server a patron's readiness and urgency to pay a service establishment's bill. In one embodiment, the signal device includes at least one battery powered light, such as a light emitting diode, mounted on the payment folder so as to be visible to an observer. The light(s) are illuminated in one or more colors and may be caused to blink in response to appropriate positioning of a control switch that can include a control circuit. In other embodiments, the signal device is a manually positionable colored surface, such as a flag, attached to the payment folder. Signaling is accomplished by withdrawing the colored surface from within the payment folder or by positioning the colored surface so that it is visible through an opening in or a transparent portion of the payment folder.
