Abstract: A method for browsing a collection of digital images on a soft-copy display comprising: receiving a collection of digital images; interactively user selecting a digital image using a user interface; determining a plurality of subsets of the digital images, wherein each subset shares a common category with the selected digital image; and displaying the subsets of digital images on the soft-copy display, together with the selected digital image.

Abstract: An exercise system including a bar having a cushioned section and two non-cushioned sections configured for a user to grip while performing a pushup; a support apparatus, the support apparatus including: two side structures; a back structure affixed to an edge of each of the two side structures via one or more hinges, wherein the back structure is configured to be positioned against a wall; and a plurality of parallel slots formed in an edge of each of the two side structures opposite the edge of each side structure affixed to the back structure, wherein the parallel slots are configured to support the bar when a user performs a pushup; wherein the one or more hinges attaching each side structure to the back structure allow a user to transition the support apparatus between a deployed configuration and a storage configuration.

Abstract: Image selection method amongst a plurality of digital images (102) classified in a plurality of images categories (104a, 104b 104c), the method comprising the following steps: —allocating to each image at least one strength value (112, 112i, 112j, 112k), —allowing an user to select (120) images amongst the plurality of digital images, —collecting (122) user data, —updating (130) the strength value of all images classified in a same category than an image selected by the user as a function of the collected user data, and —upon selection of an image by the user, automatically selecting (142) at least one additional image classified in at least one same category than an image selected by the user, and for which the strength value exceeds a threshold value —making the selected images available (146) for subsequent use.

Abstract: A hydraulic connector to provide a fluidic connection between a fluid supply and a downhole tubular, the connector comprising: a body; an engagement assembly comprising an extendable portion selectively extendable from the body, the engagement assembly being configured to extend and retract a seal assembly disposed at a distal end of the extendable portion into and from a proximal end of the downhole tubular; and a valve assembly operable between an open position and a closed position, the valve assembly being configured to: allow a fluid to communicate between the fluid supply and the downhole tubular through the seal assembly when in the open position; and prevent fluid communication between the fluid supply and the downhole tubular when in the closed position.

Abstract: A portable inverter, adapted to be moved to a desired location by a fork lift truck, enables bulk goods packed in sacks, boxes and the like and supported on a first pallet to be transferred to a second pallet. The inverter comprises a unitary three-sided, rotatably supported platform, the three sides of which are reinforced by intersecting ribs, which receives bulk goods stacked onto the first pallet, and includes a sheet metal floor onto which the pallet can be placed, a sheet metal side wall for retaining bulk goods resting against it, and a sheet metal rear wall which is longer than the side wall so that the first pallet can be loaded widthwise onto the load platform from the front thereof. A lid is slideably supported on the rear wall of the load platform in spaced parallel relationship to the floor for movement, by means of a hydraulic ram actuator, towards and away from the floor.
