Abstract: A reward associated with a game may be provided based at least partly on a characteristic associated with a user device used to play the game. A threshold or level associated with the device characteristic may be determined. A current level of the characteristic while a user is playing the game via the user device may be determined. Based at least partly on a determination that the current level of the characteristic satisfies the threshold or the level during play of the game, a reward associated with the game may be provided to the user device and/or the user.

Abstract: Film formed from a polyethylene resin composition which obeys a dynamic rheological relationship at 190° C. between melt storage modulus G?, measured in Pa and at a dynamic frequency where the loss modulus G?=3000 Pa, and dynamic complex viscosity ?*100, measured in Pa·s at 100 rad/s, such that (a) G?(G?=3000)>?0.86?*100+z where z=3800, and at the same time (b) G?(G?=3000)>0.875?*100?y where y=650, and having an impact strength (DDT) of at least 250 g, measured on 15 ?m thick film (blown under conditions with BUR=5:1 and Neck Height=8×D) conditioned for 48 hours at 20°-25° C., according to ASTM D1709.

Abstract: A value-driven build-to-buy decision analysis system and method is provided that addresses and integrates the system analysis for multiple parts of the build-to-buy business cycle. The system and method of the present invention includes a demand component and a supply component. The demand component includes decision analysis components for one or more demand oriented activities in the build-to-buy cycle, such as selling and buying activities. The supply component includes decision analysis components for one or more supply oriented activities in the build-to-buy cycle, such as product creation, product packaging and product pricing activities. Each decision analysis component utilizes values-based object-oriented analytical models.

Abstract: A system and method are provided to analyze the value of an opportunity, including the dependence and interrelationship between opportunities. A computer-implemented system having a number of software modules is provided that facilitates the calculation of portfolio effects and enables, among other things, the modeling of opportunities, including generic nomenclature and procedures for describing and encoding a wide range of relationships between opportunities.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an assembly of forming elements which together define in a papermaking apparatus a discontinuous supporting surface for a papermaking suspension to permit drainage and micro-turbulence to be accurately controlled, and to the papermaking apparatus per se.

Abstract: This invention relates to a method of installing a sunroof in a vehicle which is characterized by the use of an adhesive to bond the sunroof to the vehicle roof. In the preferred embodiment certain mechanical devices are employed in conjunction with the adhesive to reinforce the bond of the sunroof to the roof of the vehicle. For example, mechanical devices, such as U or L trim rings in conjunction with the adhesive not only reinforce the bond between the vehicle roof and the sunroof, but also beautify by hiding the marred edges of the cut-away roof, as well as sealing the raw metal cut-away metal edges from moisture and corrosion.This invention also relates to the combination of the sunroof installed in the vehicle in the above manner.
