A method and system of generating multipolar electromagnetic energy from bipolar electromagnetic energy, comprising supplying bipolar electromagnetic energy to plural cascades in a bipolar electromagnetic circuit such that at least a portion of said bipolar energy is converted into multipolar energy therein and separating said multipolar energy from other forms of energy produced by said circuit. Each shutter member is at least partially aligned with a separate cover opening in the cover assembly and is movable between a closed position and an open position in response to engaging at least one plug blade by an electric motor. 40 that is an intensity ratio determined by FTIR-ATR, and the wax is partially or entirely encapsulated in the toner particle as dispersed particles. The balloon is positionable within an airway or other anatomical passageway of a patient. The ink tubes for connecting ink dispensing outlets and ink dispensing inlets are positioned so that they are substantially uniform in the length thus to have no difference in the resistance to flows. In a first node among the plurality of nodes, lock prediction data in a hardware-based lock prediction data structure for a cache line associated with a first memory request is updated in response to that first memory request, wherein at least a portion of the lock prediction data is predictive of whether the cache line is associated with a release operation.
