Abstract: Techniques are described for providing users of client devices with coordinated access to Information and/or functionality of multiple types, such as by using multiple types of connections to multiple information services of distinct types that exchange context information related to activities of the users and/or clients. The client devices can be, for example, wireless devices with multiple distinct modes (e.g., voice and data modes) for different types of connections with different types of servers (e.g., voice servers and data servers). In some situations, coordination between different servers allows multiple distinct interaction sessions of different types with different servers to remain synchronized or otherwise coordinated over time as the user performs interactions via the different sessions. This abstract is provided to comply with rules requiring an abstract, and is not intended to be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims.

Abstract: A computer implemented system and method provide for the dynamic bandwidth allocation shift from an end user's committed rate. A service provider receives a request to enhance bandwidth between an end user and a content provider. The service provider queries endpoint information for the end user and identifies the committed rate of the end user. An acceptable enhanced bandwidth shift is determined. The policy manager is signaled to take action to implement the acceptable enhanced bandwidth shift and subsequently shift back to the committed rate. Such a system may include service logic communicating through a content provider signaling interface, a BSS integration interface, and a network equipment provider communicator.

Abstract: Rod-shaped incipient plant carrying devices which contain or can contain seeds or plant cuttings are formed from a web of paper and a filler of synthetic fibers and/or particles of synthetic foam which are first accumulated into a relatively thin but wide layer which is thereupon converted into a narrow stream. The stream is condensed and simultaneously draped into the web to form therewith a continuous rod which is severed by a cutoff to yield a file of discrete carring devices of unit length or multiple unit length. Particles of fertilizer can be admixed to the fibers and/or foam particles of the stream, and spaced-apart portions of the stream can receive seeds in such distribution that the seed in the finished carrying device is equidistant from both end faces of the filler. A bonding agent can be sprayed onto the layer to ensure adherence of neighboring fibers and/or foam particles to one another.

Abstract: This invention relates to an apparatus for shock mounting in a frame a cathode ray tube of the type having a rear neck portion containing an electron gun integrally formed with a frustum which terminates in a planar or spherical surface on which information is displayed. Compared to the frustum portion, a relatively narrow first annular member constructed of a substantially rigid material is positioned along the cathode ray tube near the convergence of the frustum portion with the neck. This first ring is affixed solidly to the cathode ray tube and has an outer surface which is formed by two surfaces which form an angle with the cathode ray tube's major axis. As such, a surface is provided for opposing a force directed substantially parallel to major axis.
