Abstract: A selectively attachable garment-to-appendage interface. The interface includes a seal having a first portion to a garment and a second portion coupled to an appendage such as a glove, a hood or footwear. The first portion includes one of a projection or a groove. The second portion includes the other of the projection or a groove. The projection and the groove are configured to releasably engage for selectively attaching the garment to the appendage.

Abstract: A rail system that may be comprised of various components such as an upper rail, support rail, bottom rail, squash blocks, balusters, post covers, and ancillary components, such as post skirts and caps. In one exemplary embodiment, the rail system may be designed to accommodate perpendicular and angled installations (e.g., both in the horizontal and vertical planes). Furthermore, in another exemplary embodiment, the rail system may be assembled such that the support hardware is substantially hidden from view after installation.

Abstract: A rail system that may be comprised of various components such as an upper rail, support rail, bottom rail, squash blocks, balusters, post covers, and ancillary components, such as post skirts and caps. In one exemplary embodiment, the rail system may be uniquely designed to accommodate perpendicular and angled installations (e.g., both in the horizontal and vertical planes). Furthermore, in another exemplary embodiment, the rail system may be easily assembled such that the support hardware is substantially hidden from view after installation, thereby enhancing the appearance of the railing.

Abstract: A drinking vessel with a lid assembly for holding a hot beverage is disclosed. The drinking vessel has an annular rim at its top edge to which the lid assembly is releasably secured. The lid assembly includes a lid, a slider and a sealing member. The sealing member is coupled to the slider. The lid includes a top wall having a port configured for communication with the interior of the vessel. The slider is configured to be slid into any one of three states, e.g., a closed state, an opened state, and a removal state. In the closed state the slider is connected to the top wall and the sealing member seals the port. In the opened state, the slider is connected to the top wall but the sealing member exposes the port. In the removal state the slider is disconnected from the top wall so that it can be removed from the lid assembly.
