Abstract: A grave site memorial assembly for housing an electronic display includes a base that has a lower surface. The lower surface is configured to couple to a tombstone. A fastener is coupled to an upper surface of the base and is configured to selectively couple to a display to position the display perpendicularly to the base. A housing that defines an interior space is configured to selectively couple to the base. The housing has a bottom that is open. The bottom is configured to insert the display to position the housing to couple to the base to sealably enclose the display in the interior space. An aperture is positioned in a front of the housing. A panel is coupled to the housing to cover the aperture. The panel is transparent so that the display is positioned to be viewed by persons proximate to the housing.

Abstract: A bonus game for a gaming machine with two types of awards. The bonus game includes a plurality of selection elements, a number of which are associated with an award of coin(s) or credit(s) and a number of which are associated with an end-bonus penalty. The game is played by selecting a number of the selection elements, one at a time, until encountering a selection element associated with an end-bonus penalty which ends the bonus game. A first award type in the bonus game is a selection-based award in which the player is credited an amount of coin(s) or credit(s) based on the value (or cumulative value) of the selection elements selected in the bonus game. A second award type in the bonus game is a quantity-based award in which the player is credited an amount of coin(s) or credit(s) based on the number of successful trials of the bonus game.

Abstract: A gaming machine is operated by a programmed micro-processor in which the first mode of operation, a basic gambling game, is implemented such as video poker or reel-type slot machine play. If bonus symbols are selected in the basic mode, a bonus mode is triggered. In the bonus mode the same or a different game is implemented by the micro-processor system employing a variable probability trial procedure in which the player continues to play and receive awards until a losing combination occurs. The hit rate for the bonus mode is often significantly greater than 50% although the overall hold percentage of the game remains below 100%.
