Abstract: Herein described is an insect exterminating device. The device has interconnecting tubing segments comprising a gas tubing line and a liquid tubing line which allows the flow of substances there through. The device additionally comprises a tube support assembly for convenient attachment of tubing segments to solid support structures.

Abstract: Systems and methods for processing streaming media by selectively removing a portion of the streaming media data, e.g., for storage and/or delivery over a computer network medium. The amount of data in a media stream itself may be selectively reduced for delivery and/or storage and, in one exemplary embodiment, the amount of data in the media stream may be selected for delivery and/or storage so that it is reduced in a manageable and substantially consistent fashion. In another exemplary embodiment, data within a media stream of a given temporal duration may be selected for delivery and/or storage in such a way that leads to a proportional increase in the maximum speed at which data from the given temporal duration of the media stream may be transmitted and reviewed while simultaneously providing the benefit of reducing overall storage capacity requirements.

Abstract: Systems and methods for selecting reception of video streams in an adaptive fashion, for example, from a multi-stream video source. In one implementation, reception of the video streams may be dynamically switched such that optimal bandwidth is selected in adaptive fashion using a set of video parameters, such as the size or dimensions of the viewing window, and/or a set of system and network parameters, to ascertain the optimal stream selection.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing high-quality region of interest (HQ-ROI) viewing within an overall scene by enabling one or more HQ-ROIs to be viewed in a controllable fashion, as higher quality ‘windows-within-a-window’ of regions (spatial subsets) of a scene.
