Abstract: A method, apparatus and system to performing an adjustment to an overall financial goal based on military benefits. The user data may include user information on a number of users. The military data may include military information on a number of military users among the number of users. The military information may include a branch of service, a military rank, a military activity status, a service start date, and a service component. The lookup data may include assumption information used. A financial goal assessment application may receive information from the user data, the military data, and the lookup data and to generate a financial goal assessment for at least one of a user or a spouse of the user.

Abstract: Automated client recovery and service ticketing may be provided. Client computers in a lab environment that become disconnected from a client management system may be recovered using an automated client recovery. Computers in a computer lab may be monitored to determine if a computer becomes disconnected from the client management system. If a computer is unresponsive with the client management system, an automated client recovery and service ticketing script is implemented to recover the unresponsive computer. If solutions within in the automated client recovery and service ticketing script do not recover the unresponsive computer, a service call request is automatically generated for the computer for subsequent examination by a lab engineer.

Abstract: Computing environments, each executing at least one software program, are monitored for failures occurring during execution of the software program. Information associated with the failure, such as an identification of the software program and a failure type describing the failure, is recorded. The failure information is quantified to report the number of times the software program has failed or the number of times a particular failure has occurred. The quantified data may provide help in prioritizing what program or what failures merit investigation and resolution. Reports may be received from failing computing systems stopped at a state following the occurrence of the failure. In response, hold information is checked to determine whether to instruct the failing computing system to hold a state existing upon the occurrence of the failure.

Abstract: A serving tray handling device having a glass or dish supporting surface and an undersurface provided with a finger-gripping projection or core which is surrounded by a recess or groove so that the user's fingers may be inserted into the recess or groove to grip the exterior wall surface of the projection or core. The core may receive a fitted cap of soft material. The core exterior wall surface is tapered inwardly for easy-grip while an opposing recess defining wall may also be inwardly sloped permitting accommodating of finger insertion into the recess or groove.

Abstract: An improved cassette for containing a photoreceptor plate adapted for use in an automated x-ray image processing system including a window member formed of a highly x-ray transparent material, an electrode for minimizing image smear affixed to the inside of the window member and electric contact means for charging the electrode disposed entirely within the cassette whereby when the cassette is closed and the electrode charged, accidental discharge of the electrode is prevented.

Abstract: An improved x-ray film cassette including a film support plate and a resilient concave-convex window member formed of a highly x-ray transparent material. The convex side of the window member is positioned facing the film supporting plate so that when the cassette is loaded with film, the window member is deformed into a substantially flat shape and the film is clamped over its entire surface area between the window member and the support plate.

Abstract: An improved object support surface for X-ray examinations and a method for carrying out such examinations whereby a source of X-rays is positioned above the surface and an X-ray image receptor is positioned below the surface. The support surface is a highly X-ray transparent and strong material comprised of a fibrous material held in a plastic matrix.

Abstract: A system for xerographic processing of a radiation responsive photoreceptor plate to produce an output printout of radiated subject matter, and thereafter to neutralize and store the photoreceptor plate in readiness for a next successive X-ray irradiation. The system utilizes a photoreceptor plate of charge orientable substance of sufficient strength to withstand expected usage; the system then includes a series of processing stations within a suitable protective enclosure wherein a positive engagement belt drive carries the photoreceptor plate through a processing conveyance for application of xerographic toner, image printout to paper or film, plate relaxation, plate neutralization and, finally, plate storage under controlled heat in readiness for next successive imaging.
