A common game controller is compatible with multiple platforms including game devices and general purpose processors. The resolution process may involve caching information from each contacted intermediate node during the resolution process to request leads on the target node in the form of a list of closer nodes known to the intermediary node. An object of aggregated PIM data is created according to the mapped attributes. The invention further provides methods to promote the general health of the nervous system through administration of active ingredient compositions. The second lower encoder generates the second lower encoded output assuming the upper running disparity has a second, different state.
