Abstract: A method and system for facilitating the play of a wagering game with a bonus game. Examples include keeping track of a number, which is increased based on wagers and optionally decreased based on other criteria providing a measure dependent on a player's average wager during play sessions. Examples provide a regular or base wagering game, provide a bonus play trigger, and when triggered, provide a bonus round with bonus play prize. Examples further provide a bonus play prize enhancement based on the value of the number maintained by the invention.

Abstract: The monitor is used with seeder equipment having one or more seeder hopper sections wherein each hopper section has a number of metering assemblies for feeding the seed from each hopper section to the soil. The monitoring apparatus includes at least one sensor consisting of a piezoelectric transducer which provides an output signal in response to being struck by a seed, a vibration isolating mounting structure to position the sensor in the seed flow path between the metering assembly and the soil, and a circuit for receiving the sensor electronic response and providing an indication of seed flow condition. The mounting structure includes an elongated member such as a metal tubing, to one end of which is fixed a cushion made of a material such as a closed cell foam and to the other end of which is fixed a securing member to secure the structure to the seeder.

Abstract: A dentifrice which releases "bursts" of flavor during use includes a minor proportion of an encapsulated flavoring material in a dentifrice base. The encapsulated flavoring is maintained separate from the dentifrice base during storage but is released into it by breaking of the encapsulating shells or coatings when the dentifrice is used. Other dentifrice constituents which are more stable during storage when kept separate from the dentifrice base, and various other adjuvants, including colorants, which may give special effects during use, are also encapsulatable with the flavor. Also disclosed is a method for the manufacture of such dentifrices.
