Abstract: A system including a first support having a leg member, a bracket operably coupled to the leg member, a first pad coupled to the leg member, and a support member coupled to at least one of the leg member or the first pad. A second support has an arm member rotatably coupled to the support member, an extendable strut coupled to the arm member, a brace coupled to the extendable strut, and a second pad coupled to the brace. A knock-over-center clamp operably couples to the first support and the second support and moves the second support between a clamped state and an open state.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for customizing content presented to individual users or user segments is provided. There may be three components, a web portal and toolbar component, a modeling component, and a scoring component. The web portal and toolbar component presents content items and collects data. The web portal and toolbar component generates user event data based on the user actions. The user event data is forwarded to the modeling component. The modeling component generates content scoring functions based on user event data and attributes of content items. Content scoring functions may be unique to individual user segments. The content scoring functions based on content features generate probability a content item will be viewed. The scoring component decides which content items are placed in a portal. The scoring component uses the scoring functions generated by the modeling component to rank content items in real time.

Abstract: A computer-enabled system and related method to perform multi-dimensional modeling. The system includes a model building function, a data link function, a dependency inspector function and a presentation function. The system unlocks the connectivity between model logic, model structure and outcome presentation. Model cells are given understandable names, and the system allows parsing and reorganization of model information without loss of logic, including formulas associated with cell elements. The data link function enables a user to insert into a matrix of the system external information of an array of data types. The dependency inspector function enables a user to quickly and easily identify relationships among cell elements. This capability reduces the time required to detect modeling errors, to audit the model, and/or understand logical relationships embodied in the model.
