| 20080278734 | DIGITAL PAPER-ENABLED PRODUCTS AND METHODS RELATING TO SAME - A digital paper-enabled product includes digital paper with a digital pattern that spatially cooperates with one or more features or boundaries printed on the pattern. More specifically, a system cooperating with the product may include spatial information systems that manage the features or boundaries and communicates with a writing instrument that was used to effect changes to the digital paper-enabled product. In one embodiment, the digital paper-enabled product may take the form of a sheet of digital paper bearing a digital pattern and where action icons (e.g. user intended actions) and/or features (e.g. such as map features) or a spatial reference frame are printed onto the digital pattern and where at least one action palette is printed onto the digital pattern, correlated therewith, and usable to effect changes to the product. Other embodiments include a method of making the digital-enabled product, a method of processing information obtained from the digital paper-enabled product, and a method of using the digital paper-enabled product. | 11-13-2008 |

| 20100155468 | OBTAINING TRANSACTION ACCOUNTS USING IDENTIFICATION CARDS - A system, method, and computer program product are used to obtain a transaction account. The system comprises at least one input device, at least one credit requesting system, at least one transaction account provider, and at least one credit reporting agency. The input device receives an identification card (e.g., driver's license) and possibly additional information from an individual. The data is then used to automatically generate a transaction account application. The transaction account provider receives and evaluates the transaction account application. The credit requesting system is coupled to the transaction account provider and the at least one input device. The credit requesting system controls transmission of the transaction account application to the transaction account provider and receives the evaluation result from the transaction account provider. | 06-24-2010 |

| 20090119194 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR FACILITATING A SECURED FINANCIAL TRANSACTION USING AN ALTERNATE SHIPPING ADDRESS - The disclosed system enables merchants to ship products to a predefined address that may or may not be an account holder's billing address. The account holder may define one or more alias identifiers that correspond to a predefined shipping address. The predefined shipping address is stored with a corresponding alias identifier. A merchant order form includes a field to accept an alias identifier, such that when the order form is submitted to the merchant and the merchant prepares a purchase authorization request, the alias identifier is included in the request. The credit account issuer receives the payment authorization request and extracts the alias identifier, which is used to locate a matching stored alias identifier. A shipping address corresponding to the stored alias identifier is retrieved and returned to the merchant with an authorization message. | 05-07-2009 |
| 20100010930 | PROVIDING A REAL TIME CREDIT SCORE AS PART OF A TRANSACTION REQUEST - Providing a real time credit score to a transaction account issuer as part of the transaction authorization request message is disclosed. A payment processor augments the transaction request received from a customer or merchant by calculating a credit score and adding it to the authorization request message. The real time credit score calculation may be based upon data stored by the payment processor and upon information collected from credit bureaus, transaction account issuers and other third-party sources. | 01-14-2010 |

| 20090063345 | System and Method for Facilitating a Financial Transaction with a Dynamically Generated Identifier - Instead of a PIN which is associated with an account and provides access to an account, a dynamically generated card identifier (dynamic CID) is used to verify that the consumer currently possesses the transaction card at the time of purchase and/or is the true card owner. At the time of purchase, a token generates a dynamic CID, which changes with each transaction. A consumer enters the dynamic CID into a pre-existing CID field in an electronic order form. The merchant then sends the dynamic CID to a card authorization system within an authorization request. The card authorization system issues a response to a merchant system via a pre-existing authorization message indicating that the transaction card and dynamic CID have been validated, thereby adjusting the fraud risk associated with the transaction. | 03-05-2009 |

| 20090249910 | LEAD SCREW DEVICE - A lead screw device including a lead screw shaft extending along a longitudinal axis having a lead screw thread portion, and a coupling structure at a proximal end of the lead screw shaft. The coupling structure can have a male securement thread and a female securement thread positioned along the longitudinal axis. The female securement thread can extend within the coupling structure at the proximal end of the lead screw shaft. The coupling structure can provide opposed axial threaded securement to a rotatable shaft along the longitudinal axis from opposing axial directions. | 10-08-2009 |
