Abstract: A semiconductor device, comprising, a semiconductor substrate, a III-N semiconductor layer over the semiconductor substrate, a dielectric layer along the III-N semiconductor layer, first and second trenches through the dielectric layer and the at least one III-N semiconductor layer, and a fill material filling at least a portion of each of the first and second trenches and having an upper surface aligned with an upper surface of the dielectric layer.

Abstract: A line light provides a disc shaped battery carrying, in electrical connectivity, two parallel electrically conductive tubes, one tube on each battery pole. A line tube is carried adjacent and parallel to one electrically conductive tube. A waterproof coating extends entirely thereabout. An LED releasably simultaneously interconnects with the two electrically conductive tubes to complete a circuit providing electrical power for illumination of the LED.

Abstract: Horizontally disposed fins are located in a plane in alignment with a raised trolling plate with fin trailing edges proximate the leading edge of the raised trolling plate. A mounting bracket of a trolling plate assembly serves to mount the fins superjacent the anti-cavitation plate of a propulsion unit.

Abstract: A single sensor that can operate in multiple bands and display either one radiation band alone or multiple overlaid bands, using an appropriate color choice to distinguish the bands. The multiple-band sensor allows the user to look through at least one eyepiece and with the use of a switch, see scenes formed via the human eye under visible light, an II sensor, an MWIR sensor, or an LWIR sensor, either individually or superimposed. The device is equipped with multiple switching mechanisms. The first, for allowing the user to select between radiation bands and overlays, and the second, as with most thermal imaging sensors, for allowing the user to switch between “white-hot/black-hot” i.e., a polarity switch.

Abstract: Apparatus, and an associated method, for providing a Web-based directory with automatic dialing capabilities that may be used by the user of a standard wireline or cellular telephone to establish contact with entities having SIP phones or other IP-based communication devises. The Web-based directory includes not only the names of various entities, but information on how to establish voice contact with them as well such as IP addresses or other contact numbers. A Web-based directory user establishes an Internet connection and retrieves one or more Web pages of the Web-based directory, selecting from them one or more entities from among those listed.

Abstract: Apparatus, and an associated method, by which to facilitate routing of a telephone call originated at an originating station to a designated telephonic station. The designated telephonic station is designated responsive to the location at which the intended called party is positioned. Positioning indicia is determined and stored, automatically, without intervention by the party to whom the call is placed. The location information is stored at a location server that is accessed and used to select the designated telephonic station according to instructions maintained at a call routing instructor.

Abstract: An assembly, and an associated method, for controlling the granularity at which a content provider is able to access positional indicia associated with the positioning of a mobile station. A profile database is created which is selectably accessible by a content provider. Positional indicia associated with the positioning of the mobile station is maintained at the profile database. The content provider requests access to the positional indicia stored at the profile database. And, positional indicia associated with the mobile station is selectably permitted to be provided to the content provider at a granularity level at which the content provider is permitted to access the positional indicia.

Abstract: A fat sparing composition, and cremes, particularly cookie filler cremes, utilizing the fat sparing composition. The composition includes a soft fat blend, and an emulsifier which is preferably a phosphated mono- or diglyceride or polyglycerol polyricinoleate. DATEM esters and lecithin may also advantageously be used. The fat sparer may be used to extend vegetable fat in cookie filler and other cremes.
