Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for treating clinical or pre-clinical skin damage in a skin field of a subject, wherein the skin field has been allocated a skin cancerization field index (SCFI) score of at least 1 as determined by a process comprising the steps of: (i) assessing the number of keratoses in the skin field; (ii) assessing the thickness of the thickest keratosis in the skin field; and (iii) assessing the proportion of the field affected by clinical or subclinical skin damage. Based on the assessments made in (i), (ii) and (iii) the subject is optionally treated by at least one of (a) freezing one or more lesions, (b) shaving, curetting or surgically removing one or more lesions, (c) applying a topical treatment for actinic keratosis, basal cell carcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma, and (d) radiation therapy.

Abstract: There is provided A process for producing a biocompatible soil mixture from cremated ash remains, the process comprising: mixing cremated ash remains with a soil base material and a nutrient composition to produce a pre-conditioned mixture, the nutrient composition comprising at least one of paramagnetic material, soil conditioner and fertilizer; and conditioning the pre-conditioned mixture using a microbial conditioner to adjust the adverse chemical properties of the cremated ash remains biologically to produce a conditioned soil mixture being biocompatible for a legacy tree, wherein the pre-conditioned mixture comprises less than 10% of the cremated ash remains by volume.

Abstract: A way of providing offers for financial incentives to users as part of an electronic customer loyalty, rewards, or discount program involving one or more merchants is provided. For example, an offer criterion is received from a merchant. The offer criterion is established by the merchant for each user and associated with one or more products or services offered by the merchant. First data indicative of at least partial satisfaction of the offer criterion by a user is received. It is determined whether the first data has caused the user to satisfy the offer criterion for that user. Upon determining that the first data has caused the user to satisfy the offer criterion for that user, second data is provided to a mobile device associated with the user. The second data is representative of an offer for a financial incentive redeemable with the merchant.
