Abstract: A backpack with magnetic back-panel is provided and configured to enable a user to store their valuable and fragile belongings in the backpack and use the magnetic back-panel to securely store the backpack against any metal structure. Through the easily accessible magnetic back panel, the backpack securely connects to most of, if not all, metal surfaces. With this magnetic feature, the backpack can be positioned vertically or horizontally on metal structures to give the user a plethora of options to position at their desired setting. These options provide an environment that reduces the chance of damage and theft to the backpack, while making completely accessible to the user and removing health and injury concerns.

Abstract: A network computer system operates to arrange transport for delivery orders in a given region, in accordance with a set of provisioning parameters, including a service value parameter, and at least one of a service batching parameter or a service range parameter. For an upcoming time interval, the network computer system determines a forecast for at least one of a number of service requests or a number of available service providers. A provisioning level determination may be made for the given region during the upcoming time interval, based at least in part on the forecast. The set of provisioning parameters may be adjusted to adjust the provisioning level to a desired target.

Abstract: A vehicle frame for a vehicle includes a rail and an engine cradle. The rail has a front portion, a rear portion spaced from the front portion, and a middle portion between the front portion and the rear portion. The engine cradle is transversely attached to the front portion. The front portion and the rear portion are each welded to the middle portion. The middle portion has a gauge thinner than a gauge of the front portion.
