A method of extracting hydrocarbons entrapped in a land formation includes forming at least one passage into an exposed surface portion of the land formation, such that the passage is formed as a substantially horizontal or as an upwardly inclined passage into the land formation. The plurality of sidewalls includes a first pair of opposing parallel sidewalls that are spaced apart by a first dimension, a second pair of opposing parallel sidewalls are spaced apart by the first dimension, and a third pair of sidewalls that are spaced apart by a second dimension that is different than the first dimension. Each side panel of the bra may also have a zippered pocket on the inside. Application software files and data files are bound to the particular computing device by a platform certificate. For example, a channel estimation value is obtained from result of FFT processing of known data contained in the receive signal, a multipath delay profile is obtained by applying IFFT processing to this channel estimation value, and the position at which the FFT processing begins is decided based upon the position of a path for which power is maximized among the delay profiles.
