Abstract: Managing rendering of a graphical user interface is provided. A system receives data packets comprising an input audio signal. The system determines an application identifier and query. The system provides the query to the application to cause the application to generate a second query for transmission to a third-party server, and identify responses to the query. The system intercepts the responses, and generates a keyword based on the responses. The system selects a digital component using the keyword, executes a deduplication process, and determines to add the digital component to the responses. The system constructs a display output using a graphical user interface template that integrates the plurality of responses generated by the application with the digital component, and provides the display output to the computing device for rendering.

Abstract: The present invention is a cold solution for reducing adipose tissue or fat. Delivering the cold solution to a region of lipid-rich tissue induces the natural cell death of adipocytes and thereby reduces the tissue. Following cell death, localized panniculitis or inflammation of the tissue leads to further reduction as adipocytes are removed as a result of phagocytosis. The cold solution does not have ice particles. One or more additives, including salt, sugar, thickeners, freezing point depressants, surfactants, and excipients can be added to the cold solution to facilitate/enhance fat reduction. Fat reduction by cold solution injection can be used to improve one's appearance or to treat a weight-related disorder, such as obesity.

Abstract: A tool storage system has a universal mounting bracket coupled to a support surface formed with a plurality of apertures that align with differently sized support arms that support a tool therefrom. The apertures are aligned along a common horizontal plane and the support arms have different heights that allow tools to be hung therefrom in a nesting relationship so that more tools can occupy less space or area relative to the support surface. The nesting relationship of the tools provides for a first tool supported by the first arm to fit within a space defined by the second tool supported by the second arm. In some instance, the first and second arms may be part of a pair of support arms, respectively.
