Abstract: Methods for making magazines that incorporate pop-up structures formed from two facing pages of the magazine and a strategically placed pop-up piece from an elongated strip that is adhesively affixed to both facing pages so as to open into an attention-attracting three-dimensional configuration when the magazine is opened to those two pages. A novel, integral, continuous, elongated strip of pop-up pieces arranged end-to-end facilitates efficient, economical, high speed production.

Abstract: A system and method of supplying power to a sonic energy source that minimizes damage to substrate devices during processing while increasing processing efficiency and/or effectiveness. The system and method utilize the concept of ramping the amplitude and/or varying the frequency of the electrical signal used to drive the sonic energy source, thereby resulting in corresponding ramping and/or variations in the amplitude and frequency of the resulting sonic energy being applied to the substrate.
