Abstract: A casket assembly includes a container and a two-piece lid. The two-piece lid includes a superior lid that covers the anterior end of the casket and an inferior lid that covers the opposite end. The container includes a bottom panel, an inferior end panel, a superior end panel, and two elongated side panels. Each elongated side portion has a recessed portion on the superior end of the casket for providing an improved viewing of the deceased. In one embodiment, the casket panels each include a plurality of mortise holes and/or tenons. The tenons on individual panels are designed to fit into the mortise holes on other panels. Pins are placed through pinholes on the tenons to retain the tenons in the mortise holes. A shelf and bracket assembly may be provided for use in displaying mementos of the deceased and/or for supporting the inferior casket lid.

Abstract: A rental casket system includes a casket with a recessed side panel for ease of viewing. The casket includes a removable end piece which is one embodiment is located within grooves formed in the side panels of the casket. The grooves widen near the upper portion of the side panels and are partially covered by a top panel. The rental casket system includes a tray assembly that may be used as part of a cremation casket. The tray has short side walls and may include an inner assembly that prevents contact with a deceased when handholds in the tray assembly are used to move the tray assembly. The tray and a lid form a burial bell assembly that may be sealed for burial. The tray assembly may include side walls that are movably attached to end walls. Lid segments are provided with the tray so that the tray may also be used as an identification tray.

Abstract: A standardized test environment assists identifying problematic instances of instructions in computer programs that produce erroneous results. A standardized production environment takes corrective action for selected instructions by intercepting instruction processing during instruction fetch, instruction decode or instruction execution and modifying one or more values such that the instructions achieve correct results. In one embodiment of a test environment, a computer system collects diagnostic information for designated instructions such as subtraction operations that produce negative results. In one embodiment of a production environment, a computer system intercepts instruction processing for instructions at specified locations in a program and takes corrective action according to information obtained from a table of control information.

Abstract: A light stake particularly useful for mounting ornamental electrical lighting is provided which includes an elongated shank and a head presenting small and large loops for respectively mounting smaller and larger light sockets. The head is angularly oriented relative to the shank and the large and small loops are cooperatively formed, preferably oriented in opposite directions. The light stake is most economically formed of a single piece of resilient wire, and may mount either a small socket, a large socket, or small and large sockets simultaneously.

Abstract: A feed structure for transmitting or receiving microwave energy to or from a reflector includes a waveguide having an input section, intermediate section, and output section. The waveguide has an inner surface of generally rectangular cross section and an outer surface of generally circular cross section. The outer surface includes unique opposing convex surfaces which enables the waveguide to be bent with minimal resulting deformation of the internal rectangular surface. At least one locating surface is provided on the outer surface of the waveguide for determining the orientation of the waveguide. The input section of the waveguide has a threaded cylindrical surface adapted to be connected to a hub having a threaded interior bore which is connected to the reflector. A feed horn integral with the output section of the waveguide and having a circular output aperture is formed by machining the inner surface of the waveguide into a rectangular to circular transition.

Abstract: A standardized test environment assists identifying problematic instances of instructions in computer programs that produce erroneous results caused by dates having years expressed in a truncated form. A standardized production environment takes corrective action for specified instances of instructions by modifying one or more values such that the instructions achieve correct results. In one embodiment of a test environment, a computer system collects diagnostic information for instances of subtraction operations that produce negative results. In one embodiment of a production environment, a computer system intercepts execution of a computer program at specified locations and takes corrective action according to information obtained from a table of control information.

Abstract: A connector assembly for connecting a microwave antenna to a radio unit. The connector assembly comprises a central hub including a waveguide and adapts for connection to the antenna for transmitting microwave signals to and from the antenna. A first latching element is attached to the hub and a second latching element adapts for connection to the radio unit and cooperates with the first latching element for latching and unlatching in response to rotational movement of the second latching element relative to the first latching element.

Abstract: A grid-type microwave antenna comprises a multiplicity of generally parallel conductive rods. Each rod is curved along its length to form a section of a paraboloid so that when all the rods are positioned parallel to each other, in spaced apart relationship to each other, they form a paraboloidal reflector. A rim includes insulating members for receiving and holding the ends of the rods to position the rods in spaced apart and parallel relationship to each other.
