Abstract: In contrast to the traditional approach of defining relationships between data collections using complex groups of cross-reference database tables, the present invention makes use of generic sets to represent relationships between complex collections of interrelated data. The complexity of a database schema can be greatly reduced by representing the relationships between data items as these data sets (sets of data items). These sets of data items may be defined in one or more database tables in a database. This approach provides for much simplified database data management and control. It enables the easy pre- or re-calculation of sets and provides for the easy creation of hierarchical meta-data trees, which are ideal for the targeted delivery of data to the user.

Abstract: A spa tub system comprising a spa tub and at least one compartment integrated into the frame of the spa tub. The compartment includes a hatch which is attached to the compartment using a hinge assembly. The hinge assembly includes a bearing trough, a bearing cam, and a cam stop. The hatch is pivoted to open and close and can open to a predefined angle. At this predefined angle, the hatch cannot be removed. When the hatch is pivoted to a pivot angle less than the predefined angle, the hatch can be removed.

Abstract: The invention is a method for enabling digital content to be downloaded to and used on multiple types of computing device by (i) linking user accounts on each device to a “master” user account defined and stored on a remote server; and (ii) managing the user's access to a defined service using his devices via the said master user account; and (iii) allowing the download of digital content to each said device on which the user is permitted to access the said service using a file format which is appropriate for use on each said device type. A user may manage and access the same user account from multiple types of computing devices. Furthermore, the number of device platforms accessible in a similar manner by the user is extensible and the user's information is kept automatically synchronized across all devices.

Abstract: A modular tool assembly including a tool base configured to releasably secure a modular tool arrangement in a fixed relationship relative to a mounting surface. The tool base includes an upper housing portion and a lower housing portion having a mounting seal extending therefrom. The mounting seal cooperates with the mounting surface to define a vacuum pocket therebetween. A vacuum generating mechanism is configured to remove air from the vacuum pocket through an aperture in the lower housing portion. A modular tool attachment releasably engages a portion of the tool base to secure the modular tool attachment to the tool base. The modular tool attachment can include a self leveling laser leveling device having a laser light source mounted within a housing to project an alignment beam through an opening in the housing to denote a reference plane along the mounting surface.

Abstract: Rather than employing simple static personal identification numbers (PINs) that are susceptible to hacking, the disclosed security system provides multiple levels of security that may be selected by a user, based on his or her particular level of sensitivity at any given time or with respect to any given data. One level employs an algorithm that changes values, where the algorithm is known by the user. For example, the algorithm may be a series of digits based on the following: hour of day, day of week, quarter of the year, a.m. or p.m., day of the month, and month of the year. If the user knows the order of such, the user can readily generate the appropriate numeric code corresponding to the current time, and since the time continually changes, the code necessarily changes likewise. Another level sends a random part to a user, such as over their pager or phone, which they append to some user-defined, fixed portion of their PIN, or used in addition to their PIN. Another level or method requires the user to interact with a series of predetermined questions that each require a numeric response. The order of the questions would be scrambled each day, or periodically, to help change the user's response to improve security and employ questions that typically only the user would know. Another level of security employs voice fingerprinting or voice pattern recognition. Yet another level employs a N by M matrix of random numbers, from which a user selects numbers from predetermined positions to generate a current security code. Various levels of security may be performed on the server, and are based on user's selections, thus eliminating the need for special hardware.

Abstract translation: 所披露的安全系统不是采用易受黑客攻击的简单静态个人识别号码（PIN），而是提供多种级别的安全性，这些安全性可以由用户根据他或她在任何给定时间或特定时间的特定敏感程度来选择 给任何给定的数据。 一个级别采用改变值的算法，用户知道算法。 例如，该算法可以是基于以下的一系列数字：一小时，一周中的一天，一年的四分之一，上午或下午，每月的一天和一年中的一个月。 如果用户知道这样的顺序，则用户可以容易地生成与当前时间相对应的适当的数字代码，并且由于时间不断变化，因此代码必须同样地改变。 另一个级别向用户发送随机部分，例如通过其寻呼机或电话，它们附加到用户定义的PIN的固定部分，或者除了其PIN之外使用。 另一个级别或方法要求用户与每个需要数字响应的一系列预定问题交互。 问题的顺序将每天或周期性地加剧，以帮助改变用户的响应以提高安全性，并采用通常只有用户知道的问题。 另一个安全级别采用语音指纹或语音模式识别。 另一个级别采用随机数的N乘M矩阵，用户从该矩阵中选择来自预定位置的数字以产生当前安全码。 可以在服务器上执行各种安全级别，并且基于用户的选择，从而消除对特殊硬件的需要。
