Abstract: A snow blower device having a housing forming a cavity configured to receive snow. A rotatable auger is supported by the housing and positioned within the cavity to gather and direct snow into a discharge chute having a lumen extending from the inside of the housing to the outside of the housing. The device further includes a blade combined with the frame and movable between a retracted position and an engaged position. In the retracted position the blade is positioned to let the snow reach the auger when the snow blower is moved in the forward direction. In the engaged position the blade is moved downward so that it contacts the ground surface and functions as a plow or snow push when the snow blower is moved in a backward direction.

Abstract: A wagering game system and its operations are described herein. In some embodiments, the operations can include initiating a wagering game session for presentation of wagering game content. The operations can further include scanning a coded identifier during the wagering game session. The coded identifier indicates a characteristic associated with activity, events, achievements, etc. performed or attained prior to initiation of the wagering game session. For instance, the coded identifier can be a two-dimensional barcode generated in response to online activity (e.g., in response to progress attained in an online game). In some embodiments, the characteristics indicate information about the activity. The operations can further include adapting the wagering game content during the wagering game session based, at least in part, on the characteristic indicated in the coded identifier, such as providing gaming rewards and bonus games, adding funds, unlocking content, modifying wagering game content, etc.
