Abstract: A system that interconnects multiple accounts associated with a gaming establishment.

Abstract: A hydrokinetic electric generator system for use in water that includes a first generator located inside a submersible first housing with fore and aft sections with respective fore and aft attachment points, a center of mass of the first generator located between the fore and aft attachment points, the first generator having a shaft extending out the aft section of the first housing with a turbine attached to the shaft, a flotation support structured to float on the water, and a first cable having a first end attached to the flotation support and a second end attached to the first attachment point on the fore section, and a second cable having a first end attached to the flotation support and a second end attached to the second attachment point in a manner to permit the system to change position in response to changes in direction of water current.

Abstract: Embodiments may generally relate to a device for supporting the head of a human subject and may comprise a wearable chin pillow. Such an embodiment may include a chin support member having a major axis defining a first end and a second end, and an orthogonal minor axis. The chin support member may have a positive curvature in a direction parallel to one or more of the major axis or the minor axis. Embodiments may further include at least one mounting strap attached to at least one of the first end or the second end of the chin support member. The mounting strap may be adapted to engage the neck of a wearer in a retaining relation.

Abstract: A product pricing system and method thereof, including a computer-implemented pricing engine being a single software application automatically generating prices for different types of products in accordance with pricing attributes for the different types of products provided to the pricing engine by a system administrator via a graphical user interface. When a pricing request is sent to the pricing engine from a product requestor applying for a respective product, the pricing engine automatically generates a price for the respective product in accordance with the pricing attributes provided for the respective product and the pricing request.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for casting metal strip include a moving chill body that has a quench surface. A nozzle mechanism deposits a stream of molten metal on a quenching region of the quench surface to form the strip. The nozzle mechanism has an exit portion with a nozzle orifice. A depletion mechanism supplies a reducing gas to a depletion region located adjacent to and upstream from the quenching region. The reducing gas reacts exothermically to lower the density provide a low density reducing atmosphere within the depletion and substantially prevent formation of gas pockets in the strip.

Abstract: An iron based, boron containing magnetic alloy having at least 85 percent of its structure in the form of an amorphous metal matrix is annealed in the absence of a magnetic field at a temperature and for a time sufficient to induce precipitation therein of discrete particles of its constituents. The resulting alloy has decreased high frequency core losses and increased low field permeability; is particularly suited for high frequency applications.

Abstract: Metal alloy filaments having improved surface characteristics and enhanced mechanical properties are extracted from a source of molten metal alloy using a quenching wheel in a partial vacuum.

Abstract: An improvement in resistance to embrittlement upon heat treatment of amorphous metal alloys containing iron, nickel, cobalt and/or chromium in the temperature range of about 200.degree. to 350.degree. C is achieved by including boron or boron plus at least one metalloid element of carbon, silicon and aluminum in a total amount of about 15 to 25 atom percent of the alloy composition.
