Abstract: A credentials database that includes a first credentials locker with a first path defining the location of the first locker, and a second credentials locker. An application program is executed and the application program is a computer program that has direct interaction with a user. A first service program and a second service program are executed, and the first service program and the second service program do not have direct interaction with the user. The first service program is called by the application program, and the second service program is called by the first service program. The first service program uses security credentials to request and obtain data from the second service program, and the second service program. The first service program always has access to and is able to obtain the current credentials.

Abstract: A request is received from a requestor for security credentials. An initial credential authority is selected based upon a first predetermined criteria. When the initial credentials authority is not available, a back-up credentials authority is chosen based upon a second predetermined criteria. The security credentials are obtained from the back-up certificate authority. The security credentials are transmitted to the requestor.

Abstract: A method and system of applying for a gaming opportunity, including accessing a server for the gaming opportunity through a player device providing identification data to the server, and receiving an indication of eligibility for the gaming opportunity from the server based on at least one composite score indicative of a scale of eligibility for the gaming opportunity, the composite score obtained by weighting disparate player data based on at least one business rule and applying the weighted data to at least one decision model to generate the score, the disparate player data obtained from a plurality of data sources.

Abstract: A method and system of screening a player for a gaming opportunity, including obtaining disparate data of a player from a plurality of data sources, weighting the player data based on at least one business rule, and applying the weighted player data to at least one decision model to generate at least one composite score indicative of a scale of eligibility of the player for the gaming opportunity.

Abstract: A system and method for a gaming opportunity including a server to provide a gaming opportunity, a communications network, and a player device in communication with the server through the communications network to request access to the gaming opportunity for a player, the player device including a user interface through which user identification data is sent to the server, wherein the server includes an eligibility determination module to determine eligibility of the player for the gaming opportunity based on the user identification data, and a conditional play module to provide assistance during play of the gaming opportunity.

Abstract: An auto-locking structure used in a sliding track assembly for drawer is constructed to include a track located on the rear side of the outer sliding rail of the sliding track assembly, a sliding locking block sliding in the track and adapted to alternatively lock the inner sliding rail between the extended and received positions, and a tensile spring connected between the track and sliding locking block, the sliding locking block having a side locating hole defined between a sloping wall and a stop wall and an opening adjacent to the side locating hole for positively secure the inner sliding rail in the extended or received position.

Abstract: A sliding track assembly includes an outer rail, an intermediate rail, an inner rail, a stop member, a first sliding bearing, a second sliding bearing, and a locating plate, wherein the inner rail has a raised portion adapted to engage the stop member for enabling the intermediate rail to be moved with the inner rail outwards when pulling a drawer out of a desk; the stop member has a supporting rib bridging a sliding slot of the intermediate rail to support the stop member on the intermediate rail in position when the stop member engages a retaining block of the outer rail; the intermediate rail has two retaining flanges abutting two sides of a curved positioning portion of the spring to hold the spring in place.

Abstract: A sliding track assembly includes an outer rail fixedly mounted inside a desk, the outer rail having a locating flange extended from a rear extension bar thereof, an inner rail moved with a drawer in and out of the outer rail, and positioning mechanism installed in a rear side of the inner rail for stopping the inner rail from jumping forwards relative to the outer rail each time the inner rail is moved with the drawer into the inside of desk, wherein the positioning mechanism includes a hollow fixed block fixedly fastened to the inner rail, and a movable block pivoted to the fixed block and turned between a first position where the movable block is received inside the fixed block and stopped at a front side of the locating flange of the rear extension bar of the inner rail and the inner rail is received inside the outer rail, and a second position where the movable block is extended out of the fixed block for enabling the inner rail to be moved with the drawer out of the desk.

Abstract: A sliding track assembly includes an outer rail fixedly mounted inside a desk, an intermediate rail carried on a first sliding bearing and moved in and out of the outer rail, an inner rail carried on a second sliding bearing and moved with a drawer in and out of the intermediate rail, and a stop member installed in the intermediate rail to limit forward movement of the inner rail relative to the intermediate rail, wherein the stop member has two rear retaining frames for holding down the second sliding bearing when disconnecting the inner rail from the intermediate rail, the rear retaining frames each having an upright retaining wall for engagement with opposite side walls of the second sliding bearing, the upright retaining wall of each rear retaining frame having a raised portion adapted for engagement with a recessed portion on the respective side wall of the second sliding bearing, the upright retaining walls of the rear retaining frames being respectively spaced from the upright side walls of the interme
