1. A safety vest, comprising:
a vest sized to be worn by a human, the vest having a front and back and left and right sides each having a shoulder portion;
a continuous at least partially flat electroluminescent (EL) assembly routed to each side of the vest extending from the front to the back over the shoulder portion, wherein the EL assembly includes at least one turn and a plurality of EL lighting elements;
a power source supported by the vest and connected to the EL lighting elements to supply electrical energy to the elements so that they emit EL light; and
wherein portions of the vest are a safety orange color.
2. A safety vest according to claim 1 further wherein a portion of the vest includes a color contrasting with the safety orange is selected from the group: light, white, or yellow.
3. A safety vest, comprising:
a vest sized to be worn by a human, the vest having a front and back and left and right sides each having a shoulder portion;
a single flat strip electroluminescent (EL) assembly routed to each side of the vest the single flat strip EL assembly including multiple EL elements wherein an EL element is located on each side of the vest, extending from the bottom of the vest upwards toward the shoulder portion, and wherein the single flat strip EL assembly is folded to form at least one turn in the single flat strip EL assembly;
a power source supported by the vest and connected to the EL lamp elements to supply electrical energy to the elements so that they emit EL light; and
wherein portions of the vest are a safety orange color.
4. A safety vest according to claim 3 further wherein a portion of the vest includes a color contrasting with the safety orange is selected from the group: light, white, or yellow.
5. An article of safety clothing adapted for wearing on a torso portion of a human, comprising:
a single electroluminescent (EL) assembly located on a portion of the clothing wherein the EL assembly follows a single path from a source of power for the assembly to a distal end of the assembly;
the clothing including a substantial portion colored safety orange;
a power source connected to one end of the EL assembly; and
at least three transition portions in the EL assembly where the EL assembly changes direction, allowing the EL assembly to form a pattern using directional changes.
6. The article of safety clothing of claim 5, wherein at least one transitional portion includes a 90 degree turn.
7. The article of safety clothing of claim 6, wherein at least one transitional portion includes a 180 degree turn.
8. An article according to claim 5 further wherein a portion of the article includes a color contrasting with the safety orange is selected from the group: light, white, or yellow.
The claims below are in addition to those above.
All refrences to claim(s) which appear below refer to the numbering after this setence.
1. A method for conducting a transaction, comprising:
receiving at least one transaction input from a customer in accordance with a transaction interface previously provided to said customer;
determining at least one transaction output according to at least one rule; and
providing at least one of said at least one transaction outputs in such a manner that said at least one transaction output appears to have been determined randomly,
wherein said providing at least one of said at least one transaction outputs in such a manner that said at least one transaction output appears to have been determined randomly includes integrating said at least one of said at least one transaction outputs into a display of at least one simulated slot machine reel.
2. A method for conducting a transaction, comprising:
receiving at least one transaction input from a customer in accordance with a transaction interface previously provided to said customer;
determining at least one transaction output according to a first rule; and
providing at least one of said at least one transaction outputs in such a manner that said at least one transaction output appears to have been determined according to a second rule different from said first rule, wherein said providing of said at least one of said at least one transaction outputs in such a manner that said at least one transaction output appears to have been determined according to a second rule includes integrating said at least one of said at least one transaction outputs into a display of at least one simulated slot machine reel.
3. A method for conducting a transaction, comprising:
receiving at least one transaction input from a customer in accordance with a transaction interface previously provided to said customer;
determining at least one transaction output according to at least one rule; and
providing at least one of said at least one transaction outputs in such a manner that said at least one transaction output appears to have been determined in a manner other than in accordance with said at least one rule,
wherein said providing at least one of said at least one transaction outputs in such a manner that said at least one transaction output appears to have been determined according in a manner other than in accordance with said at least one rule includes integrating said at least one of said at least one transaction outputs into a display of at least one simulated slot machine reel.
