Abstract: A cigar holder configured for use in a golf environment is disclosed. The cigar holder comprises a main body configured to receive and hold one or more cigars at one end, and to secure to a surface at an opposing second end. The main body comprises a first generally cylindrical portion and a second generally cylindrical portion orientated in a different direction as compared to the first generally cylindrical portion. The main body may comprise a bend, whereby the second portion extends away from the first portion along a different direction or plane. Positioned at a distal end is an opening. The distal end opening is sized and shaped to receive a smoking device, such as a cigar.

Abstract: Methods for optically encoding data in a compact space include arranging a plurality of dots within a circle. According to the invention, the location of the dot within the circle defines the meaning of the dot. According to two embodiments of the invention, the dots are connected by lines and a starting point is indicated for decoding the dots in sequence. According to another embodiment, the dots are decoded from left to right. According to another embodiment, a plurality of circular arrays are stacked to conserve space.
