Abstract: The present invention is related to systems and methods for creating, validating, updating, and certifying fan status. The present invention is directed to creating a platform for fan communications and engagement. The present invention also includes a marketplace for transacting digital collectibles of interest to fans. Fan status in the present invention is a metric of social interaction, engagement, time spent, money spent, events attended, and/or other ways of measuring support and interest. Both quantitative and qualitative measures of fan status are compatible with the present invention. Preferably, the fan status is used for fans of sports teams.

Abstract: The present invention comprises a multilevel structure made up of several components that fit together to form a rectangular frame that can be combined with other such multilevel frame structures to form a desired size of greenhouse that can either be free standing, attached to the wall/fence or pegged to the ground. Additionally, the greenhouse offers a light intensity controller in the form of an externally provided or directly attached refractor/reflecting/magnifying lens/that can increase, reduce or change the amount of light. Furthermore, the greenhouse has the ability to run water tubing and electrical wires through its frame structure that allows humidity control, lighting and heating of the environment within, for hydroponic, aeroponic and conventional earth farming.

Abstract: The Flyte Patch is a patch that made out of cotton fabric or paper laminated that covers the front of the face. The Flyte Patch comes in different shapes and sizes decorated with rhinestones around the frame and around the face of the Flyte Patch. It also has velcro attachments in the back and can also be connected on to another Flyte Patch just like itself showing a double face display of two images on each side front and back showing reversible style. The Flyte Patch goes on all type of clothing and also worn as a medallion.

Abstract: Examples of first node elements, second node elements, and kits are disclosed. Also, methods for assembling a lattice structure are disclosed. A first node element has a coupling side, the coupling side further having one or more hollow insertion channels, each channel being configured to receive one of the elongated bars, and each channel having a longitudinal axis, and the longitudinal axis of each channel being tilted at an angle with respect to a plane defined by the coupling side. Moreover, the first node element has a contact side, the contact side having an opening, the opening communicating with each of the hollow insertion channels forming a corresponding through-hole such that to form the lattice structure the elongated bars are inserted into the hollow channels from the contact side to the coupling side and traversing the corresponding through-hole.

Abstract: A method for determining the relative angular direction ? between a target and a transmitter. A generation of one or more light beams at the transmitter comprises diffracting broadband light in such a way that different optical frequency wavelengths are diffracted differently and a relative angular direction ? is detected by reading the optical frequency wavelength. A system is provided for determining the relative angular direction between a target and a transmitter and a system is provided for determining a relative position between a target and a transmitter in an area, wherein relative position is defined by the parameters: relative angular direction (?1, ?2), and distance.

Abstract: A golf ball marker holding device for use by a golfer includes a top surface formed from a ferrous material, and having a low rim formed thereon and a rear surface having a pin secured thereto. A resilient, magnetic disk ball marker is held in a cavity defined by the low rim and the top surface, and is easily removed from the cavity to mark the location of a removed golf ball. The pin is secured in an article of clothing, and a butterfly-like clip is secured to the free end of the pin to hold the device to the article of clothing.

Abstract: Disclosed is a serial access memory and a method of writing in said memory comprising at least one matrix of memory cells, a clock signal input terminal receiving a clock signal, a data input terminal receiving a defined number of data bits in series and a selection terminal receiving a selection signal, said method being initialized when the selection signal changes state from a first state to a second state. The writing in the matrix of memory cells occurs only if the selection signal goes from the second state to the first state during a window located just after the last of the data bits has been received.
