A user-centered interface agent learns user preferences and typical behaviors and, based on what is learned, predicts the user's preferred user interface for different types of host computers. The interface agent consists of a learning program which operates on the user's primary computer, a shadow program which is installed on a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), and a remote program which operates on host computers. The PDA transfers data between the primary and remote machines, and can also be used as the user's primary computer. On the primary computer, the agent learns a user's preferences automatically by observing the user's actions, requiring minimal initialization by the user. The learning algorithm may be statistical, rule-based, case-based, neural network, or employ any other technique for reasoning under uncertainty. The automated personalizing of a user interface configuration has a particular advantage for individuals with disabilities who require configuration before they can use a new computer system.

Disclosed is a simulated adipose tissue which is unusually pleasing in taste and texture and is characterized by a juicy, smooth melting property closely resembling natural fat. The simulated adipose tissue can be employed alone or with any type of meat or meat analog where a degree of fatty tissue is desired, and is most desirably employed in products which are served fried. In a preferred embodiment, a simulated bacon product is prepared containing the simulated adipose tissue and a red meat simulating phase. The simulated adipose tissue has droplets of fat, approximately 10 to 120 microns in diameter, encapsulated within a matrix based on a heat coagulable, preferably proteinaceous, component, and a water-soluble, film-forming component.

A combination folding ladder and height adjustable scaffold, comprises (a) a first assembly including a first leg and a second leg, each formed by an outer and inner telescoping member, and outer and inner rungs which connect the outer and inner telescoping members in substantially parallel, spaced apart relation; (b) a second assembly including a third leg and a fourth leg, each formed by an outer and inner telescoping member, and outer and inner rungs which connect the outer and inner telescoping legs of the third and fourth legs in substantially parallel, spaced apart relation; (c) positioning joints removably secured to upper ends of the for pivotally securing the first and second assemblies together; (d) a height adjustment assembly for varying the heights of the legs; and (e) a scaffold platform for use with the combination when the positioning joints are removed from the legs and the first and second assemblies are separated, the scaffold platform including a flat rectangular board, U-shaped supports at the opposite short ends for defining channels for receiving any of the rungs at a first vertical level, and a plurality of hook arms pivotally secured to the underside of the board and having hook ends for receiving any of the rungs at a second vertical level, such that a stable scaffold is provided by the first assembly, the second assembly separated therefrom and the scaffold platform connecting together the first and second assemblies.

Disclosed is a method for producing fibrous protein materials useful for meat analogs. According to this method, an aqueous mixture of a heat coagulable protein is frozen by cooling the mixture in a manner and at a rate effective to produce elongated ice crystals generally aligned perpendicular to the surface of cooling, and immersing the resulting frozen mass in an aqueous solution, comprising an edible, water-soluble material capable of lowering the freezing point of water and stabilizing the protein, for a time effective to stabilize the protein in the frozen mass. Aqueous ethanol is a preferred solution. The properties of a wide variety of meat products can be simulated.

Disclosed is a method for producing fibrous protein materials useful for meat analogs. According to this method, an aqueous mixture of a heat coagulable protein is frozen by cooling the mixture in a manner and at a rate effective to produce elongated ice crystals generally aligned perpendicular to the surface of cooling, freeze drying the frozen mass, and heat setting the dried protein material. The properties of a wide variety of meat products can be simulated.

Disclosed is a method for producing fibrous protein materials useful for fish analogs. According to this method, an aqueous mixture of a heat coagulable protein is frozen by cooling the mixture in a manner and at a rate effective to produce elongated ice crystals generally aligned perpendicular to the surface of cooling, then subjected to a temperature substantially different from that of the frozen mass, and the protein in the frozen mass is then stabilized effectively to preserve its structural integrity during subsequent heating to set the protein.
