A system and method for securely streaming media. The system includes a gateway server that receives requests for access to a secured data resource from an end users. The request include an authorization ticket and a referring website. The gateway server validates the authorization ticket using a secret key shared with the referring website, and validates the referring website by verifying that referring website is on a white-list for the secured data resource. The gateway server selects a data server to service the request, and formats a data server access request containing the data server location and data server request parameter data and transmits the data server access request to the end users. When end users transmit the data server access requests to a data server, the data server validates the request and transmits it to the end user.

We present a time keeping system for turn-based games which accepts time controls used in fast games but allows the game to be played in a correspondence manner similar to slow games. This gives players the enjoyment of playing fast games with time pressure but at a pace that is convenient for their busy schedule.

Time keeping system for turn-based games

A turn-based strategic board game played on a gridded board with different strength piece types, wherein a player's higher strength piece is able to move or freeze an opposing player's lower strength piece. A player wins by moving one of his lowest strength pieces to the row farthest away from the winning player. The game board has one or more predetermined trap spaces wherein if a piece is on a trap space, then under certain conditions the piece will be removed from the game. Movement turns proceed in sequence among players. During a player's turn, the player may make optionally multiple moves, optionally divided among a plurality of the player's pieces. Initial setup involves each player placing his pieces in self-determined spaces of the player's first two board rows. In a preferred embodiment, two players can play on an appropriately marked chess board using standard chess pieces.
