Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products are provided for selecting content formats based on predicted user interest. One example method includes receiving a request to present additional content to a user in association with the user viewing a video content item during a session, identifying one or more candidate content formats, predicting a likelihood that the user will abandon the session for each candidate content format, selecting a format based at least in part on the predicting, determining when to present the additional content to the user, and presenting the additional content in accordance with the selected format.

Abstract: A vehicle rear lift gate hinge and counterbalance assembly (22) includes a pair of laterally spaced hinges (24) and a counterbalance (25) including a torque rod (26) for pivotally supporting and counterbalancing a vehicle rear lift gate (18) for movement between open and closed positions with respect to a rear opening (14). Each hinge (24) includes a vehicle mounted hinge member (28) and a gate mounted hinge member (30) pivotally connected to each other. The torque rod (26) has a unitary construction including a central portion (38) ends (40) that include U-shaped bight portions (42) respectively received between laterally spaced portions (34) of one of the hinge members and engageable with an engagement portion (36) of the other hinge member to provide counterbalancing adjacent the closed position of the lift gate (18).
