Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes identifying recipes and receiving a grade selection, from each user of a food management system, for each of the recipes. An average grade for the recipes is calculated based on the grade selection received from each of the users. One of the users is identified from whom a grade selection was received that is greater than the average grade. The grade selection received from the identified user is correlated with the grades received from the other users. At least one of the other users whose grades most closely correlate with the grade given to the group of recipes by the identified user is identified. One or more recipes are provided to the identified one of the users that the identified one of the users has not graded based on grades given to the recommended recipe by the identified at least one of the other users.

Abstract: An antenna design of compact dimensions is provided by incorporating the antenna structure into an integrated circuit or small circuit module. A radiation pattern adjustment mechanism permits dynamic, real-time adjustment of the antenna pattern in response to motion, repositioning, handovers, or other changing conditions. Pursuant to one preferred embodiment of the invention, the antenna includes a plurality of substantially conductive elements embedded into or formed on the integrated circuit. At least one of the conductive elements is coupled to a radiation pattern adjustment mechanism in the form of a switching diode or relay. The antenna elements are arranged in a manner so as to provide parasitic interaction.
