Abstract: A device which is a translucent boat or ship cleat constructed of polyurethane. The cleat is molded as one piece and can be either clear or have color added such as international orange. The cleat has a recess in its base in which a light source can be placed. Lighting such as incandescent, neon or LED may be used. The cleat can be powered from an external source either AC or DC. The cleat can also have solar cells placed in its horns which can store energy in storage cells mounted with the cleat at its base for powering LED during non-sunlight hours. The illuminated cleat makes it easy to locate the mooring for a boat in the dark. It also makes the cleat visible for the safety of persons walking on the mooring structure. The polyurethane construction provides for a lighter, more durable, and less abrasive device fo boat moorings.

Abstract: A ball or sphere which has suction cups distributed around its outside surface and is of a size that it can be handled and thrown in the air by hand. Generally, a ball of baseball size has been found to be the preferred size. The ball can be thrown in the air against a smooth, nonporous surface and attaches to the surface by the force of suction.The suction ball works well in adverse environments such as water in water sports and is useful for improving coordination and motor skills in throwing objects. When used in conjunction with a hand held catching surface, the suction ball can be caught by swinging the hand at the approaching ball. The ball and catching surface are particularly useful for persons who are unable to throw and catch a conventional ball.

Abstract: An improved surfboard storage and carrying bag with a pneumatically inflated guard rail comprising of three circumferential tubes on each pneumatically inflated and attached inside a surfboard storage or carrying bag that when inflated provides a guard rail or bumper to prevent sharp blows from chipping or denting the edge of the surfboard stored inside. An inflatable pillow that protects fin protrusions for a surfboard is also described.

Abstract: The improved speculum has a downward rotating lower blade, an upward handle, upper and lower blades thicker at the base and narrower at the insertion end with blade surfaces recessed to allow tissue to be held in the recessed area and with transverse recessions that allow the tissue to grip the device.

Abstract: The lottery organizer is a device which has an inside and outside cover that has pockets attached to the inside cover to hold various lottery game materials.
