| 20090123235 | OUTER PIPE SLEEVE FOR A SEA FLOOR MOORING PILE - The present disclosure provides an improved system and method for increasing an anchoring force on a pile. The concepts regarding the pile can apply whether the pile is degraded and no longer able to support its intended load, or a load on the pile has increased to a level that may overstress the pile. A sleeve can be installed even in subsea conditions over the pile and can be used to provide an additional securing force to the existing pile. The sleeve may include its own padeye for coupling an anchor line or other coupling member to a structure to be secured. The sleeve may also include an assembly of rings coupled together with at least one longitudinal member. The assembly with the rings spaced a distance away from each other may help reduce an installation friction on the sleeve, as it is installed into the sea floor. | 05-14-2009 |

| 20080201712 | Method and System for Concurrent Message Processing - A method and system are provided for concurrent message processing. The system includes: an input queue capable of receiving multiple messages in a given order; an intermediary for processing the messages; and an output queue for releasing the messages from the intermediary. Means are provided for retrieving a message from an input queue for processing at the intermediary and starting a transaction under which the message is to be processed. The intermediate logic processes the transactions in parallel and a transaction management means ensures that the messages are released to the output queue in the order of the messages in the input queue. | 08-21-2008 |
| 20100293238 | METHOD AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR RECEIVING AN UPDATE TO A PREVIOUSLY RECEIVED EMAIL MESSAGE - A method and computer program product enable an email user to receive an update to a previously received email message. An email client receives an update to the previously received email message is received. Privacy information in the update is identified and that privacy information is associated with a first portion of the previously received email message. The privacy information indicates whether the user is permitted to view that first portion of the previously received email message. The privacy information may be used to update the previously received message. | 11-18-2010 |

| 20100293475 | NOTIFICATION OF ADDITIONAL RECIPIENTS OF EMAIL MESSAGES - An email client software application can include a sending component, a receiving component, a notifier, and a reply-all option. The sending component can be for sending email messages to a set of recipients. The receiving component can be for receiving email messages. The notifier can be for receiving notifications from recipients to whom email messages have been previously sent. The received notifications can indicate that previously sent email messages have been forwarded to others. The reply-all option can be provided such that when triggered it automatically sends a reply message to a subset of recipients associated with an initial one of the email messages and to the others that have been sent the initial one of the email messages. The others included in the subset can be determined from the notifications received and processed by the notifier. | 11-18-2010 |
