| 20090125580 | DISPLAYING SERVER ERRORS ON THE CLIENT MACHINE THAT CAUSED THE FAILED REQUEST - Computer-implemented methods and computer-readable storage media are disclosed relating to displaying server errors on the client computing system that caused the failed request. A client listener application configured to execute on a client computing system. The client listener application is further configured to exchange data over a network with a server system, and provide metadata to the server system identifying the client computing system in association with a client request for execution of code on the server system. The client listener program is configured to receive an assert message indicating an error resulting from the execution of the code on the server and signal receipt of the assert message over a user interface. The client listener program is further configured to provide an opportunity for a user to respond to the assert message via the user interface by choosing to ignore the assert message or to analyze the error. | 05-14-2009 |
| 20110099609 | ISOLATION AND PRESENTATION OF UNTRUSTED DATA - Architecture that provides a secure environment in which data (e.g., code, instructions, files, images, etc.) can be opened and run by a client application. Once opened the data can be viewed (in a “protected view”) by the user without incurring risk to other client processing and systems. Accordingly, the architecture mitigates malicious attacks by enabling users to preview untrusted and potentially harmful data (e.g., files) in a low risk manner. Files opened in the protected view are isolated from accessing key resources on the client computer and provides the user a safer way to read files that can contain dangerous content. The protected view also provides a seamless user experience. The user is unaware that the client is operating on data in a different mode and allows for the reduction of security prompts. | 04-28-2011 |

| 20110042420 | Dispensing tap for beverages - A dispensing tap for beverages that comprises an actuator and a valve housing. A conical spring washer is joined and/or sealed to an actuator base to form the actuator. The actuator is then inserted into the valve housing to form the dispensing tap for attachment to a container containing a liquid. In use, a force is exerted on the conical spring washer to actuate the actuator base within the valve housing and thereby create an opening and/or passageway in the dispensing tap. Once opened and as the force is maintained, the liquid in the container can flow through the opening or passageway for dispensing the liquid out the dispensing tap. Upon releasing the force, the conical spring washer returns back to its original position. This movement of the conical spring washer causes the actuator base to move in the reverse direction within the valve housing thereby closing the opening and/or eliminating the passageway in the dispensing tap. The resultant seal of the actuator base to the valve housing prevents any further liquid from being dispensed from the container. | 02-24-2011 |

| 20090173772 | Method Of Forming A Paperboard Blank With Attached Giftwrapping Paper Into One Component Of A Giftbox With Square Corners - This invention is a paperboard box and a lid having a paper with a design placed on the outside surface. The paper is held in position by being glued to the inside of the finished carton. The box or lid has four squared corners. The finished decorative box has adhesive on the interior panels and may be shipped in flat form and erected at or near the point of use. Because the paper is thick it is difficult to form square corners on the box or lid. The box or lid has a paperboard web between a side panel and an end panel which is folded to make a square corner. It has been found that a slit can be cut in the paper bisecting the corner which will allow the paper to be folded without bunching and making an attractive square corner. Once the slit is cut in the paper the side and end panels can be folded to produce a square corner without any bulging paper. The bulging paper is not attractive as a gift-wrap box and also may prevent the locking of the corner as required to form a box and lid with square corners. | 07-09-2009 |
