Abstract: A method of controlling the aquatic weed Hydrilla verticillata which comprises allowing a herbicidally effective amount of (RS)-2-(4-isopropyl-4-methyl-5-oxo-2-imidazolin-2-yl)-5-methoxymethylnicotinic acid (imazamox) or an agriculturally acceptable salt thereof to act on the aquatic weed and/or its aqueous habitat containing seeds or other propagating organs of said aquatic weed.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method of obtaining fine circuitry features by positioning a circuit board precursor, the circuit board precursor having a cover layer and an insulating substrate, in proximity to a source of laser radiation. Selectively laser ablating through the cover layer and into the underlying insulating substrate and then treating with water, dilute alkali solution or dilute acid solution to remove the cover layer to reveal one or more circuitry features on the insulating substrate that are smaller than if a cover layer is not used.

Abstract: Disclosed is a controller which functions to interconnect and control one or more digital devices such as magnetic discs, typewriters and other digital data processing equipment. The controller receives input signals and delivers output signals through interface vector (IV) buffer stores which connect to and from user devices. The logical state of the output signals in the buffer stores is determined by an instruction-controlled processor which accesses instructions from a memory. The instructions are processed in response to input signals (operands) from buffer stores and produce output signals (operands) to the buffer stores. The instruction fetching paths and the operand fetching and storing paths are separate. The controller includes apparatus and an instruction set which allows variable fields in the buffer stores to be addressed to provide source operands and to be addressed to store result operands after instruction execution.
