Title: Entrance-exchange structure and method
Inventor: RANIERE KEITH A
IPC: G07F17/32
Filed: 2003-07-11
Abstract: A entrance-exchange structure and method of execution thereof, comprising a house and an activity of uncertain outcome (e.g., game of chance, game of skill, etc.) that is entered by a participant (e.g.; a participant such as a player). The house pays the participant a takehome in relevant scrip, or cash and relevant scrip, for an activity entered into by the participant, based on betting by the participant. An existing outside vendor may exchange the participant's scrip at a scrip-to-items exchange rate for at least one item provided by the outside vendor. The outside vendor may exchange the relevant scrip with the house for cash at an outside-vendor scrip-to-cash exchange rate. The house may also function as a vendor with whom the participant may exchange relevant scrip for cash at a house-vendor scrip-to-cash exchange rate. The relevant scrip is a virtual currency that may be generated by the entrance-exchange structure.

Title: Progressive multifocal ophthalmic lens with rapid power variation
Inventor: DEVIE PIERRE
IPC: G02C7/06
Filed: 2002-02-01
Abstract: The invention relates to a progressive multifocal ophthalmic lens having a far vision region, an intermediate vision region and a near vision region, a main meridian of progression passing through said three regions, and a power addition equal to a difference in mean sphere between a near vision region control point and a far vision region control point. The lens has a progression length less than 12 mm, defined as the vertical distance between a mounting center and a point on the meridian where mean sphere is greater than mean sphere at the far vision control point by 85% of the power addition value. To ensure good visual characteristics not only around the meridian, but also in regions of extra-foveal vision, the ratio between the integral of the product of cylinder times the norm of sphere gradient, on a 40 mm diameter circle centered on the center of the lens, and the product of the area of this circle, power addition and a maximum value of the norm of sphere gradient over that part of the meridian comprised within this circle is less than 0.14.

Filed: 2003-04-07
Abstract: A method for modifying the properties of a fibrin matrix relative to growth and ingrowth of cells, wherein for forming the fibrin matrix a fibrinogen is used consisting of a selected fibrinogen variant or a fibrinogen enriched or depleted in a selected fibrinogen variant. In particular, the use of high- molecular weight (HMW) fibrinogen leads to a fibrin having accelerated angiogenesis properties, while the use of low-molecular weight (LMW and/or LMW') fibrinogen leads to fibrin having decelerated angiogenesis properties. The use of HMW fibrinogen when setting up angiogenesis tests results in that the tests require less time. Fibrin sealants on the basis of HMW fibrinogen can be used for burns, to promote wound healing or to inhibit scar tissue. Fibrin sealants on the basis of LMW or LMW' fibrinogen are useful to inhibit adhesions and tumor growth, for instance after surgical operations.
