Abstract: Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for delivering a customizable feedback stimulus. In one implementation, a custom feedback device comprises a shell housing having a first shell and a second shell. The shell housing opening extends between an outer surface of the first shell and an outer surface of the second shell. A plurality of protrusions extends between the first shell and the second shell, and at least one receiving area is defined by the plurality of protrusions between the first shell and the second shell. The receiving area is adapted to house a customized portion.

Abstract: Systems and methods for processing payment card transactions for a payment card using a payment card processing system are disclosed. Method for processing one or more payment card transactions for a payment card using a payment processing system in communication with a computer readable storage medium includes receiving an authorization request from an acquirer and a corresponding authorization response from a card issuer, the authorization response including a status identifier for the payment card, associating the payment card with a payment card listing based on the status identifier, the payment card listing indicating transaction processing information relating to the payment card, and storing the payment card listing in the computer readable storage medium.

Abstract: In a two cycle engine, the bypass as well as the need for mixing fuel and oil are eliminated through the use of a separate compressor. A unique set of inlet and exhaust valves form an integral part of the system. These valve are used to optimize the performance of the engine.

Abstract: An acoustically activated marketing for displaying predefined information in response to predefined data being received. The device is obtained from a retailer and worn as a badge while at the cinema or while listening to the radio or TV. When a specific advertisement is broadcast, the badge interprets part of the sound track and activates the display on the badge. The displayed information may be an advertisement or a message. The predefined data may be broadcast by a commercial broadcasting means, such as a television or radio.

Abstract: A smoke/fire detection system for the detection of smoke or fire produced by a malfunctioning pipe heating tape or other electrical devices. The detector automatically shuts off the power to the affected tape or device and provides an alarm indicating the malfunction and its location to enable repairs to be made. In a preferred embodiment, the detection system includes a computer and a fire extinguisher. The computer determines if a fire is present at a selected location and turns on the fire extinguisher automatically when fire is present.
