Abstract: In a cable network for delivering a personal communications service (PCS) and cable television (CATV) service, return service applications, e.g., a pay per view service, are also provided on a return cable band provided by the cable network. In accordance with the invention, the return service applications utilize subbands unused by the PCS in the return cable band, thereby unaffecting the PCS. The broadband noise in the subbands normally accompanied by the PCS is filtered out using a tunable filter whose passband is adjustable to coincide with one of many PCS signal bands being used in the return cable band.

Abstract: Compounds of (I), and their N-oxides and agriculturally suitable salts, are disclosed which are useful for controlling invertebrate pests (Formula) wherein J is selected from the group consisting of J-1, J-2, J-3, J-4, J-5, J-6, J-7 and J-8 (I) and R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R7, R9 and n are as defined in the disclosure. Also disclosed are compositions for controlling an invertebrate pest comprising a biologically effective amount of a compound of (I) and methods for controlling an invertebrate pest comprising contacting the invertebrate pest or its environment with a biologically effective amount of a compound of (I) (e.g., as a composition described herein).

Abstract: Methods and apparati are disclosed for providing disciplined clock signals at a plurality of nodes located throughout a network. In the preferred embodiments, a plurality of clocks are ensembled to provide ensemble time base information. A universal clock signal such as from a global positioning satellite (GPS) or Loran receiver is also provided and the ensembled time information is disciplined to the frequency or the phase of the universal clock signal to provide syntonization or synchronization throughout the network.

Abstract: Development of electrostatic charge patterns (e.g., electrostatic latent images) carried on a support is accomplished in an electrographic process in which during development, an electrical field which is greater than the electrical breakdown value of the developer (i.e., greater than the maximum electrical field that the developer can support without undergoing electrical breakdown) is established across the developer in the development area. The process enables development of high quality, large solid-area images at high processing rates.

Abstract: A feedback loop coupled to a tuned circuit applies to an input of a comparator circuit arrangement a control voltage signal which is a function of the instantaneous current in the tuned circuit. The loop is employed to adjust the timing at which the comparator arrangement applies voltage-refresh pulses to the tuned circuit in response to a reference voltage signal supplied by an external clock. The timing at which the pulses occur is such that the current in the tuned circuit remains in phase with the reference voltage signal. Two like tuned circuits driven 90.degree. out of phase provide the rotating magnetic field characteristic of magnetic bubble, field-access memories.
