Title: Numerical hi/low dice game
Inventor: DIGIROLAMO SEVERINO
IPC: A63F3/02
Filed: 2002-03-28
Abstract: A Numerical Hi/Low Dice Game, which includes at least one die and at least one consecutive series of blocks and integers, with each of the blocks being used to selectively display or conceal an integer. The object of the game is to achieve the highest or lowest score by; tossing at least one die, and to display or conceal one or more integers in the series that add up to the total displayed by at least one die. A player continues playing until the integer(s) remaining in the series do not add up to the total displayed by the die or dice, whereupon play passes to the next player. The displayed integer(s) remaining in the series at the end of each players turn are recorded, with the player achieving the lowest or highest score winning the game. The game may be played by two or more players simultaneously, using any practical block series, integer series, and any type of regular polyhedron die or dice, with the die being of a singular, or plural configuration, or in combination thereof; e.g., tetrahedron, cube, octahedron, dodecahedron, icosahedrons. A means of playing the present Numerical Hi/Low Dice Game is also disclosed.

Patent CA-2404434-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CHEN QIN
IPC: G01N21/35
Filed: 2001-04-05
Abstract: A system for emitting and detecting terahertz frequency electromagnetic pulses. The system comprises a single transceiver device, which may be an electro-optic crystal or photoconductive antenna, for both emitting and detecting the pulses. A related method comprises using a single transceiver device to both emit and detect electromagnetic terahertz frequency pulses. The transceiver device is excited by a pump pulse to emit a terahertz output pulse, which is modulated with a chopper. An object reflects the terahertz pulse and the reflected pulse is detected in the transceiver using a probe pulse. A lock-in amplifier set to the same frequency of the chopper is used to reduce noise in the signal detected by the transceiver. An image of the object may be created using the intensity or the timing of the peak amplitude of the terahertz pulses reflected from the object.

Abstract: A flying disc (10) has a smaller diameter and lower profiles which allow it to be more easily caught by dogs, children, and other less experienced players. The disc has an increased thickness and weight at the rim (12) enabling the disc to travel greater distances. The disc has an increased thickness along a flight plate (16) and along a transition area (14) which helps deter punctur e and other breakage due to aggressive canine catches. The disc has gripping surfaces (18) positioned along an upper surface and on the underside of the disc which help a person retain better control of the disc while it is being thrown or caught. The gripping surfaces are segmented, staggered, uni- directional, and present a low profile. These gripping surfaces help prevent the accumulation of foreign matter that can render it difficult to grip or catch the disc and which can harm a dog's teeth when catching the disc.</SDO AB>
