Abstract: A method for playing an interactive game (10) between a first player and a second player includes the steps of the first player obtaining a plurality of active first game pieces (14A) that each includes a word-forming indicia (24A), the first player positioning a first active first game piece (14A) onto one of a plurality of designated positions (22) of a game board (12) to at least partially form a first word, and the second player choosing one of two options. The options can include (i) attempting to identify the first word, and (ii) indicating that the second player does not believe the first player can form any word with the first active first game piece (14A) and the remaining active first game pieces (14A).

Abstract: A needle protecting device including a carrier and a needle cover connected to the carrier at a distal needle cover end, the needle cover including a proximal needle cover end which is movable relative to the distal needle cover end such that the needle cover may be elongated along the length of the needle from an exposing position in which the injection needle protrudes through the needle cover to a protecting position in which the needle cover surrounds the injection needle at least as far as its tip, wherein the needle cover is elongated by an elasticity force, and wherein locking elements, including at least a distal locking element and a proximal locking element, lock the needle cover against shortening in its protecting position.
