Publication number: 20130269018Abstract: Providing remote user access to secure financial applications includes deployment of SSO software to client workstations by receiving a password for collaborating access to a secure server, navigating to the secure server using a web browser on a remote workstation, providing user authorization details and the received password to the secure server, generating a subsequent password at the secure server upon validation of the user authorization details and received password, and downloading an SSO deployment file to the remote workstation. The deployment file includes a subsequent password. The SSO deployment file is executed to install an SSO client application on the remote workstation. Workstation settings and user credentials are read from a secure file or data store. The SSO client application is run on the workstation to employ the user credentials and subsequent password to logon to the secure application.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 14, 2013Publication date: October 10, 2013Inventors: Timothy Dingwall, Matthew Herscovitch, Jason Hart, John F. Clark, John Boyer

Patent number: 6931735Abstract: A window treatment hanging tool is made up of two right angled shaped guide components. The first guide component has dual arms positioned perpendicular to each other, each with channeled pathways. The second guide component also has dual arms in perpendicular relation to each other, each arm having an elongated member which is adapted to be slideably and adjustably insertable within the pathways of the first guide component. Each guide component also has measurement markings. Properly positioning the guide components on or within windows or window frames allows proper alignment and lateral equidistance positioning of a window hanging treatment support in relation to the window or window frame.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2004Date of Patent: August 23, 2005Inventors: John F. Clark, Wayne St. Aubyn

Patent number: 5059436Abstract: A package for heating food in a microwave oven includes at least one web which is a laminate comprising a dielectric layer (1), a microwave interactive layer (2) a structural layer (4). The package has a package seam (14) wherein at least one thickness of the, or another web, is joined with a second thickness.Type: GrantFiled: January 4, 1990Date of Patent: October 22, 1991Assignee: Leigh-Mardon Pty. LimitedInventor: John F. Clark

Patent number: 4759517Abstract: Satellite is maintained in the geostationary orbit about the equator by use of solar sails. These solar sails are oriented to use the sun's radiation pressure to sail the satellite in a first direction for a first portion of the orbit and in a second opposite direction during a second portion of the orbit to counteract the forces tending to pull the satellite out of its equatorial orbit.Type: GrantFiled: June 25, 1982Date of Patent: July 26, 1988Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventor: John F. Clark

Patent number: 4660045Abstract: A method and system is described for use with or in a satellite for compensating for cross coupling of satellite feeder link signals from a first channel of a first linear polarization as received by a first linearly polarized satellite antenna element with adjacent signals from a second channel. The second channel signals are at a generally orthogonal linear polarization. The system includes a second linearly polarized antenna element oriented orthogonal to the first antenna element for sensing the second channel signal, a gain controlled amplifier for reducing the gain of the second channel signal received at the second antenna element in inverse proportion to the sensed amount of cross coupling (depolarization) and adding the reduced gain signals that have been inverted to the first channel signals from said first antenna element.Type: GrantFiled: October 19, 1983Date of Patent: April 21, 1987Assignee: RCA CorporationInventor: John F. Clark

Patent number: 4616465Abstract: A storage tank, such as a water tower is disclosed, made by bolting rows of glass-coated steel plates together. The plates overlap each other side to side and above and below. The contact with plates at the diagonal corners is not an overlapping contact but an abutment contact, and the lines of abutment contact are staggered row to row. This arrangement leads to a very efficient use of material, and to an inherently leak proof structure when the plates are arranged to form a double skin in the lower regions of the tower.Type: GrantFiled: July 27, 1984Date of Patent: October 14, 1986Assignee: Crophandling Systems LimitedInventors: Stuart D. Byers, John F. Clark

Patent number: 4435707Abstract: A weather radar incorporating a sensitivity time control modifying circuit for adaptively increasing the gain of the IF amplifier as a function of precipitation rate; thereby increasing the range of the radar through the precipitation and identifying on the display those regions in which the radar might otherwise inaccurately indicate the precipitation rate. Reflections from the precipitation are received by the radar antenna coupled to a mixer wherefrom an IF signal is coupled to the IF amplifier wherein it is amplified in accordance with a gain that is determined by the modified sensitivity time control signal.Type: GrantFiled: March 9, 1981Date of Patent: March 6, 1984Assignee: Sperry CorporationInventor: John F.

Patent number: 4394242Abstract: The invention involves a cell which may be used for producing molten aluminum by electrolysis of aluminum oxide in a molten bath. The cell includes a cathode and an anode, a bar and a hanger. The bar is connected at an upper end to the hanger and at a lower end to the anode. Flexible means is provided for supplying electrical current through the bar to the anode. A jack means raises and lowers the hanger and thus the anode. Included in the invention, the hanger is mounted at at least two separated points, one higher than the other, in encompassing, sliding relationship, on a single, upright, circular cross-sectioned post passing through the hanger. By this technique, the hanger is constrained to move up and down, without rotation about horizontal axes.Type: GrantFiled: October 20, 1980Date of Patent: July 19, 1983Assignee: Adnovum AGInventor: John F. Clark

Patent number: 4306704Abstract: A solenoid comprises two coils wound on a common axis and a core within the coils which is supported for movement along the axis. Direct currents are applied substantially continuously to the two coils for resistively heating the solenoid to a temperature substantially above the ambient temperature. The direct currents are applied in the same direction to the two coils to produce additive magnetomotive forces when it is desired to energize the solenoid and in opposite directions to the two coils to produce subtractive magnetomotive forces which tend to cancel, when it is desired that the solenoid be in its unenergized condition.Type: GrantFiled: March 20, 1980Date of Patent: December 22, 1981Assignee: RCA CorporationInventor: John F.
