Abstract: Systems, methods and computer program products that facilitate the sale of perishable inventory such as tickets to a limited capacity event are provided. Through the targeting of fans who are interested in access to the perishable inventory and are within a geographic location that permits them to go to an event location within a limited amount of time, there can be increased attendance at the events. Optionally, a fan's passion level can be considered when determining whether to make an offer.

Abstract: A telephone central office switch (103) provides Centrex features, including intercom dialing, on central-office-to-PBX (133, 134) trunks (123, 124) by using the 4-wire subscriber feature of the Lucent Technologies 5ESS.RTM. switch to administer trunk ports (113-114) that serve the central-office-to-PBX trunks as 4-wire telephone lines and then further administering those trunk ports for Centrex features. Those trunk ports, and optionally also some line ports (115-116), may be administratively assigned the private network numbering plan of respective PBXs so as to enable intercom dialing among those trunk ports, and between those trunk ports and the optional line ports.

Abstract: A compact circular magnetic induction accelerator (betatron) for use as a borehole gamma ray source includes a field magnet and generally circular pole pieces composed of a class of ferrite having the general formula M.sup.2+ Fe.sub.2.sup.3+ O.sub.4, where M represents two or more divalent metal ions from the group consisting of Mn, Zn and Ni. The core magnet is in the form of two symmetrical closed loops, with one leg of each loop passing axially through the circular pole pieces. The field coil and the core coil may be arranged in series or in parallel, and switching circuits are provided for effecting electron beam capture and ejection. In an illustrative borehole application, the betatron is used as a gamma ray source in a bulk density logging tool.
