A shoulder support, removably attachable to the base, has an adjustable rod extending forward of it with a detent at its distal end. The adjustable rod inserts into the base through its two apertures with the detent passing through the front aperture to prevent rearward movement of the adjustable rod. A second support removably attaches to the base. It has two telescoping rods connected to each other at their bottoms from which they are pivotable. Adjustable straps on one telescoping rod are adapted to wrap around one's back and fasten to themselves for greater stability. Another strap at the bottom of one telescoping rod is adapted to loop around one's belt and fasten to itself thereby providing addition stability and vertical support.

Abstract: A method of correcting parafunctional behavior of the mandibular complex by engaging in a vertical measurement of the mouth followed by stretching open the mouth even further at least once followed by inserting an anti-occluding device between the teeth and retaining it there for a pre-determined period of time then removing it and stretching the mouth wide open at least once. This method also may entail placing the tongue on the roof of the mouth [defined as the N-position] and keeping it there while opening and closing the mouth several times after which the mouth is opened to its maximum extent and then closed until the lips touch but the teeth do not touch. This position and the N-position are maintained for as long as possible and performed several times daily.

Abstract: A shape-retaining bag having a front and a back connected to each other to define a chamber between for housing and retaining a fill material within a plurality of cells within the chamber which are made of a plurality of walls and one or more flow diverters adjacent to the cells and on the ends of the walls. A passageway is on a fill-side with a second passageway on an opposing side, each passageway extending approximately from one end side to another end side of the bag. As fill material is introduced into the chamber, it passes through the cells and the passageways in a fashion dictated by the cells and by the flow diverters until the bag is filled. The configuration of the various cells and flow diverters permit the bag to retain its shape notwithstanding the fill material within.

Abstract: For a power cut-off saw, a debris-collection device pivotably mountable to the cut-off saw. The device has a collection chamber with a top slot and a front slot in communication with the top slot. Both slots are adapted to receive the cut-off saw blade; the front slot is adapted to capture dust from the cut. A debris-control component may, but need not, cover the top slot and permits entry of the saw blade but prevents dust from escaping. A discharge arm on the top of the collection chamber has a hollow channel which communicates with the collection chamber and facilitates the discharge of dust from the collection chamber by an externally connected vacuum source which suctions out the collected dust.

Abstract: A method of preparing organic acids (fulvic, humic, and ulmic) for use as an electrolyte for producing high ionizations of precious metals (such as silver) which entails leaching out the organic acid from its source, stabilizing the organic acid first with ascorbic acid followed by sodium benzoate, removing cations, and using the organic acid as an electrolyte. A precious metal (such as silver) is used as a sacrificial electrode in this electrolyte. A non-sacrificial electrode could either be the same precious metal or an inert non-precious metal (titanium or graphite carbons). If the same material is used for the non-sacrificial electrode as for the sacrificial electrode, the size of each electrode may be about the same. If different material is used for the non-sacrificial electrode, its size should be larger that of the sacrificial electrode. Current at about 2 or more volts is applied to the electrodes and the ionization process begins yielding high concentrations of ionized precious metals.

Abstract: An apparatus for repelling animals which is attachable to the top of any external barrier. The apparatus has an elongated hollow roller with an opening on each of its two ends; an end cap, with an aperture for receiving an axle, seated in a water-tight manner into each end of the roller; and a mounting member having an upper section with one or more axle projecting from it wherein the axles are adapted to insert into the aperture of the end cap and permit rotation of the roller and also having a lower section adapted to attach to an external structure. Noise-producing articles may be inserted into the hollow of the roller such that, as the roller is rotated, the movement of the articles within emit noise.

Abstract: For a power saw, a dust-capturing device composed of two sides shields with one side shield having an exhaust duct adapted to be attached to a hose of an external vacuum and a rear panel to aid in capturing and containing dust generated by the saw's use; and the other side shield having a top and rear beveled portion disposed toward the saw to aid in capturing and containing dust generated by the saw's use. The side shields may be of a one-piece or two-piece construction and are adapted to be securely attached to a saw at or near the upper blade guard of the saw. Capturing dust with only one side shield is effective; but, use of both side shields increases the effectiveness. The attachment mechanism to attach the device to the saw may be stationary or adjustable to accommodate any adjustments necessary for varying depths of cuts.
