  • Publication number: 20120330694
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for monitoring booking data are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes retrieving booking data from a computer-readable storage device and processing the data using an analyzer of a plurality of analyzers to generate at least one score. In addition, the method includes comparing a value of the at least one score to a threshold value, determining that the value exceeds the threshold value. The method further includes generating an event in response to determining that the value exceeds the threshold value, the event indicating a presence of one or more criteria that generated the data, and transmitting the event to a computing device to be displayed to a user of the computing device.

  • Patent number: 8032966
    Abstract: A hand-gripable presentation marker carrier is disclosed for holding and quickly accessing a plurality of different color presentation markers. The carrier includes a hand-gripable support element including a plurality of marker-tip receiving structures disposed along a surface of the hand-gripable support element, the surface of the hand-gripable support element supporting each of the marker-tip receiving structures. The carrier can also include an eraser housing for receiving an eraser assembly. The plurality of presentation markers are held perpendicularly with respect to the surface of the support element, and each marker-tip receiving structure is shaped so as to grip a marker at its tip-end and hold it to the common hand-gripable support element regardless of the orientation of the common hand-gripable support element. The eraser assembly is sized such that it fits snugly within the eraser housing, and can be inserted and removed from the eraser housing with convenient and comfortable force.
