    Abstract: A loyalty program operated in association with a television broadcast network, wherein reward content is provided along with television content (programming and/or advertising) to generate a television broadcast signal that is transmitted to a plurality of viewers. Each viewer may view or hear the reward content via their television receiver (or set top box, personal computer, etc.) along with the associated programming or advertisements, and as a result provide a reward response which may be a visit to a local merchant, a mail-in or call-in response, entered to a web site via the Internet, etc. Reward points, as well as prizes and product discounts may be provided as the reward to the viewer that provides the appropriate reward response. This program can be configured and adapted to provides incentives to viewers to visit certain merchants and sponsors, purchase certain products, view certain programs, and the like, based on the reward parameters employed.

    Abstract: A user selects a product to be liquidated from a product provider and then designates to the transacting entity that reward points are to be used towards the purchase of the liquidated product. The transacting entity acts to decrease the number of reward points in the user's reward account by the required number of points. The reward account holder conveys consideration to the transacting entity equivalent to the par value of the reward points. The consumer obtains the product in exchange for reward points having a retail value equivalent to what he would have otherwise paid for the product, while the reward account holder is required to convey only the par value of the points. The product provider is able to liquidate the product and obtain payment equivalent to what it would otherwise have obtained in a prior art liquidation process, auction or trading environment.

    Abstract translation: 用户选择要从产品供应商清算的产品,然后将交易实体指定为要用于购买清算产品的奖励积分。 交易实体的作用是将用户奖励账户中的积分数减少所需的积分数。 奖励账户持有人将交易对象转达给等价于奖励积分的面值的交易实体。 消费者获得产品作为交换与零售价值相当于其他产品所支付的零售价值的奖励积分,而奖励账户持有者必须仅传达积分的面值。 产品提供商能够清算产品并获得与现有技术清算过程,拍卖或交易环境中将获得的相当的付款。

    Abstract: Modular electronic system for vehicle dashboards, interior roofs, and center consoles that includes a sleeve or frame adapted to engage with the vehicle and integrate with a housing adapted to be mated with the sleeve or frame. The sleeve or frame has an inner surface area, a first pair of power contacts arranged so as to be exposed on the inner surface area, and a power connector adapted to plug into a power supply receptacle located on the vehicle dashboard (such as a cigarette lighter receptacle). Wiring means is used for connecting the power connector to the first pair of power contacts. As a result, when the power connector is plugged into a power supply receptacle on the vehicle dashboard, electrical power from the vehicle is supplied to the pair of power contacts and electronics (such as a cell phone, audio/video entertainment device, computer, radar detector, etc.) within the housing are provided with power from the vehicle. This modular system allows a vehicle owner to install one such frame or sleeve and easily interchange housings to provide the functionality desired.

    Abstract: The present invention discloses a system and method for preparing and delivering various precursor compositions as a replacement therapy for testosterone and other hormone deficiencies that naturally occur with aging in humans and other mammals. Precursor compositions are selected and designed for the purpose of formulating non-toxic therapeutic hormone supplement for oral consumption. The invention features low dose continuous supplementation to be incorporated with daily meals. The process of the present invention delivers an orally ingested substance, e.g., a food, supplement, etc., that contains an anti-aging formulation comprising a hormone precursor (prohormone) that is absorbed by the digestive system and secreted into the bloodstream with a second substance to facilitate its ingestion, absorption and delivery to the body's tissues.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a process and method for the early detection and diagnosis of disease by reading and decoding volatile organic compounds (VOCs) for signatures associated with a specific disease. Urine is available as a diagnostic sample providing its off gas with VOCs for rapid screening from its outset, each disease begins producing its own unique set of volatile organic compounds. For many diseases, this early-stage detection may be many months or years before noticeable symptoms. The VOC emissions when analyzed, result in a “signature” that identifies and distinguishes the developing, or at later stages, the developed disease. The device assays non-invasively obtained biosamples in real-time to output a VOC based signature that, when correlated with data in a disease signature library, identifies one or more diseases associated with the sample.

    Abstract: Providing a purchase incentive to a mobile device based for example the user's location, predicted route of travel, and prior transactions. A tracking server computer determines a number of locations of a mobile device as it travels along a route and an associated timeframe when it is at each of the locations. The tracking server computer records the locations and associated timeframes in a location log and analyzes the location log to predict a subsequent location and associated timeframe that the mobile device will be at that location. The tracking server computer then determines a merchant proximate to the predicted subsequent location of the mobile device and generates a purchase incentive for use at the merchant and delivers the purchase incentive to the mobile device. In the alternative, the incentive may be generated by a merchant computer or the mobile device.
