Abstract: Methods of processing seismic data to remove unwanted noise from meaningful reflection signals are provided for. The seismic data is transformed from the offset-time domain to the time-slowness domain using a Radon transformation. A high-low, preferably a time variant, high low corrective filter is then applied to enhance the primary reflection signal content of the data and to eliminate unwanted noise events.

Abstract: Methods of processing seismic data to remove unwanted noise from meaningful reflection signals are provided for. An offset weighting factor xn is applied to the amplitude data, wherein 0<n<1, and the offset weighted data is transformed from the offset-time domain to the time-slowness domain using a Radon transformation. A corrective filter is then applied to enhance the primary reflection signal content of the data and to eliminate unwanted noise events. After filtering, the enhanced signal content is inverse transformed from the time-slowness domain back to the offset-time domain using an inverse Radon transformation, and an inverse of the offset weighting factor pn is applied to the inverse transformed data, wherein 0<n<1.

Abstract: An exercise machine includes a frame, a removable seat, and a shaft horizontally mounted on the frame, which rotates about its longitudinal axis. Attached to the shaft is at least one weight arm and at least one work arm. The work arm can be releasably connected and take multiple forms, each adapted for particular exercises. When an exerciser pulls or pushes on the work arm, the shaft rotates and carries the weight arm in an arc from a starting or first position to a second position. Because the weight arm travels in an arc, the resistance to the exerciser varies over the course of the exercise. Further, the starting or first position of the weight arm may be adjusted to change the starting resistance to the exerciser.

Abstract: A collapsible insect containers are provide that comprise a base, a top having a selectively closeable passageway therein, at least one support member that extends between and engages the base and top and supports the top in spaced relation to the base, and pliant sidewalls that extend between the base and top and enclose the space therebetween. By utilizing pliant sidewalls, the container, absent support by the support members, is collapsible and may be packaged in a collapsed state.

Abstract: A multi-cell, lead-acid electric storage battery of the wet or absorbed electrolyte type is provided. The battery comprises one or more manifolding apertures in one or more partition walls, which apertures are of a size which allows passage of gases and in wet batteries minimizes passage of electrolyte and which define one or more sets of manifolded cells; a single trapping chamber associated with each set of manifolded cells; one or more vent apertures for wet battery applications or a pressure release valve for absorbed electrolyte battery applications is disposed between each set of manifolded cells and its respective trapping chamber, which vent apertures are of a size which allows passage of gases and in wet batteries minimizes passage of electrolyte.

Abstract: A cover assembly for a multicell, lead-acid electric storage battery, which is capable of having each cell independently pressure checked for leaks by using pressure testing equipment having a pressure head tip is provided, which cover assembly comprises a primary cover member and one or more cover piece members sealed to the primary cover member and substantially defines a venting system comprising process holes for communicating with each cell, a trapping chamber communicating with each process hole, the trapping chambers being manifolded into one or more sets, and an exhaust port communicating with each set of manifolded trapping chambers and the ambient; wherein the process holes comprise a cap, an outer opening receiving the cap, an annular step and a first and second barrel in substantially coaxial alignment with the outer opening, and apertures, the annular step providing a surface upon which may be placed the pressure head tip of said pressure testing equipment for independently pressure checking the
