Abstract: A computer-implemented method for providing an offer associated with a merchant to a cardholder engaging in a game is implemented by a gaming rewards computer system in communication with a memory. The method includes storing merchant game data for the merchant within the memory wherein the merchant game data includes data associated with a merchant game a merchant offer and a location of the merchant, receiving a game request message from a cardholder computing device associated with the cardholder wherein the game request message includes a cardholder locator identifying a location of the cardholder, providing the merchant game to the cardholder computing device when the cardholder location is within a pre-defined distance of the merchant location, receiving a game result message for the merchant game, and providing the merchant offer to the cardholder computing device based, at least in part, on the game result message.

Abstract: 8?,14-Dihydroxy-7,8-dihydrocodeinone is described.

Abstract: Circuits, methods, and apparatus that reduce the power consumed by transactions initiated by a number of USB host controllers. Peripheral devices on a number of USB networks are accessed in a coordinated manner in order to reduce power dissipated by a CPU and other circuits when reading data needed by the host controllers. The resulting memory reads are temporally clustered. This allows the CPU to process a greater number of requests each time it leaves a low-power state. As a result, the CPU may possibly remain in a sleep state for a longer period of time, thus saving power. This is accomplished at the host controller level by synchronizing the time frames used by each host controller in a system. The synchronizing signal may be one or more bits of a frame count provided by one host controller to a number of other frame controllers.
