| 20110004558 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR EXCHANGING REWARD CURRENCY - Methods and systems are disclosed for allowing two users to exchange reward currency, such as points, between two different loyalty programs at an exchange rate that is set by and agreed upon by the users themselves. An offer to exchange X points of one loyalty program for Y points of another loyalty program is received from a user and is made available to other users. Another user satisfied with the offered exchange accepts the offer, and the account balances of the two users are adjusted. In some embodiments, a fee is charged to one or both of the users for effecting the trade. The fee is then forwarded to the loyalty programs. In other embodiments, the loyalty programs specify rules that must be complied with before a trade can occur. | 01-06-2011 |

| 20110244935 | Role-Playing Slot Game - A game that includes both a slot-type game portion and a role-playing-type game portion. The game may include a plurality of characters with various abilities that may have modifiable values. The slot game may allow the player to play multiple lines and may include a multiplier that augments the value of any prize on any winning line. In addition, the slot game may include ability-related symbols on its reels, whereby an ability value for a selected character may be increased if the ability-related symbol appears on the reels after a spin. The role-playing type game may include features or subgames related to the abilities, where the features allow the character to compete to increase the ability values and to win additional prizes or compensation. Successfully completing a feature may be a random event, like the spin's of the slot game, or, alternatively, success may depend on the player's skill or ability. | 10-06-2011 |
| 20120071223 | System and Method for Generating and Placing Combination Bets - A method and system for generating and receiving a combination bet may include presenting a plurality of betting events in a display resembling a slot machine. In one embodiment, the user may place a total wager for a combination bet prior to knowing what the betting events are. Placing the bet may “spin” the reels to randomly generate a plurality of betting events, and success in the combination bet may require that each individual bet is a winner. In another embodiment, the user may be able to “spin” the reels prior to placing the bet. Betting events still may be randomly generated, but the user may have the ability to select the events on which to wager. Events may comprise in-live sporting events, and the user may have the ability to select various event features, such as the type of events displayed and the odds for each event, in order to customize the betting experience to the user's interests and risk tolerance. | 03-22-2012 |
| 20120098201 | System and Method for Generating, Funding, and Distributing Multiple Jackpots - A method and system of generating, funding, and distributing multiple jackpots in a game such as poker, specifically such as Texas Hold 'Em. The jackpots may be separate, independent bad beat jackpots that pay out at different intervals due to having independent triggering conditions that have different odds of occurring. Preferably, the triggering condition for each jackpot may be a losing player's hand strength. The specific values for the triggering conditions may be chosen by random, may be generally evenly distributed over the number of jackpots, may be determined by an algorithm, e.g., one that relies on the odds of each hand occurring, or by another method. The jackpots may be funded from rakes collected from substantially every hand that is played—subject to certain prerequisites being established—such that each jackpot may be considered progressive in that it grows over time. | 04-26-2012 |

| 20110214957 | Luggage and carrier - A bag and a carrier therefore, the carrier comprising a base member having first and second pivotable wheels mounted proximate a first end of the base member, a third wheel mounted proximate a second end of the base member, the bag being mounted to the base member at the first end, the base member being pivotable with respect to the bag such that the base member can pivot between a first position wherein the base member lies adjacent the bag and a second position wherein the bag is supported on the base member, a handle arrangement extending upwardly from the base member and being operative to steer the first and second wheels, and a locking device to lock the pivotable wheels in a non-pivotable position when the base member lies adjacent the bag. The base member can function as a scooter type of device. | 09-08-2011 |

| 20110283838 | SOLVENT EXTRACTION PROCESS FOR SEPARATING COBALT FROM NICKEL IN AQUEOUS SOLUTION - A process for separating Co from Ni in an aqueous solution comprises subjecting the solution to extraction and using kinetic differences between Ni and Co in the extraction for achieving at least a partial separation of Co from Ni. This is effected by controlling the duration of the extraction so that a major portion of Co and a minor portion of Ni is extracted from the solution to produce a loaded extractant, enriched in Co and depleted in Ni compared to the feed solution, and a Co-depleted raffinate containing Ni. In a further embodiment, the invention utilizes kinetic differences between Ni and Co during striping for effecting separation of Ni and Co. The loaded extractant can be subjected to a bulk stripping or a selective stripping operation to obtain Co and Ni solutions from which Ni and Co can be recovered. The process may be incorporated in a hydrometallurgical process for the extraction of Ni and/or Co from an ore or concentrate containing Ni and Co. | 11-24-2011 |
