Abstract: A dual use article of furniture with horizontally supported planar surfaces that separate, slide, and pivot to provide adjustable passage for electrical wiring communication, concealment, and management, and to provide access to electrical and electronic components, and accessories internally stored and supported beneath the planar surface and concealed by a relatively movable assembly that is connected to, supported by, and integral with the article of furniture structure.

Abstract: A communication system, method, computer program product, and apparatus include common equipment shared between multiple independently administered networks. The common equipment is reconfigurable and expandable and provides changed communication capacity and functions when additional elements are added or reconfigured. Configurable features include, for example, communication bandwidth, Quality of Service, and a number of communication satellites included in the communication system. The common equipment includes expandable elements including, for example, a single hub modem chassis that can expand to communicate with more than one communication satellite and a protocol processor that can share a protocol processing task with another protocol processors.

Abstract: A fluid bed reactor uses energy sources to excite and energize atomic components so as to effect and increase orbital energy. In a preferred embodiment light irradiates agitated particulate in a photolysis reaction to generate singlet oxygen in the gas phase. In a second embodiment microwave radiation stimulates a particulate linked endoperoxide to release singlet oxygen.

Abstract: A computerized compensation system of disseminating a plurality of news and information items offered, contributed, and submitted by a plurality of independent submitters to an internet provider site.
