Abstract: The present application is directed to a mouth guard to protect the user's teeth and/or jaw. It is important that the mouth guard fit tightly and properly in order to fully protect the user. The present invention achieves the proper fit by having cilia in the cavity that comes in contact with the user's teeth. These cilia move to allow the mouth guard to fit tightly and properly. In addition, the mouth guard of the present invention may contain flavoring such as Gatorade, bubble gum flavoring, as well as the traditional cherry, orange and grape that can be released into the oral cavity of the user while wearing the mouth guard. This allows the user to taste the flavoring while using the mouth guard.

Abstract: A leash assembly designed to attach at least one waste holding device, such as a plastic bag, in such a manner that the plastic bag is able to swivel about and not get tangled as the dog moves from side to side. This eliminates the need of the person walking the dog to constantly move the leash from one hand to the other hand in order to prevent the waste bag from getting tangled. In other words, as the dog move in different directions the waste bag holding device is able to adjust its' position by swiveling about the device attached to the leash allowing the walker to have their hands free. The swivel can also be adapted to hold other items such as keys, extra bags for dog cleanup and hand wipes. All of these items would also be able to swivel about the device.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a one-touch label-dispensing device for dispensing labels marked with time information, such as the month, day and year, that can be attached or integrated into the panel of a refrigerator so that labels automatically marked and dispensed can be used to mark food items placed in the refrigerator and/or cabinets. The present invention is also directed to a one-touch label-dispensing device for dispensing labels that can be equipped with a recording device for recording audible and text messages, such as e-mails, to be played back at a later time.

Abstract: The present application is directed to a seat having a hard, firm surface designed to treat hemorrhoids. The hard, firm surface of the seat is configured to have a void and two opposing pressure applying points designed to place positive pressure on the area surrounding a hemorrhoid so as to develop a negative pressure within the body which causes the body to draw the hemorrhoids back up into the body.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a learning bracelet that contains a compartment for placing learning tags for display. The learning tags can either be pre-printed with a word and/or can be made printer friendly so that the desired word and/or concepts can be printed upon the learning tag before being used. Once inserted into the learning bracelet, the learning tag displays the word and/or concept to the person wearing the learning bracelet. The displayed word and/or concepts can be view by the student using the bracelet so as to reinforce the word, its spelling and or meaning.

Abstract: A set of forms and information gathering system comprising a questionnaire check having a place to insert answers to questions that are sent to a person along with the check is provided. Once the answers to the question from the questionnaire have been inserted in the supplied area the person taking the survey can cash the check. Once the check is cashed and processed through an Automated Clearing House (ACH) the cancelled check with the answers to the questions. Once the cashed check is received by the sending party, the answers to the questionnaire by the endorsed party will also be received. The data can then be processed and reports generated for the client requesting the data.

Abstract: An animal waste pickup and disposal device specifically designed to be inexpensive, simple to use and prevent a user from coming into direct contact with the animal waste either while picking it up, disposing of the waste, or after or during cleanup. The device having a bag on one part of the device to collect the waste and a shovel that is covered with a pad or sleeve that pushed the waste into the bag. The pad or sleeve designed to cover the shovel so as to protect it from becoming soiled in the process.

Abstract: The invention is directed to an apparatus and process for marinating foodstuffs in a short period of time. The apparatus includes a food holding container, a base and a shaft for transmitting ultrasonic mechanical vibrations from a source of ultrasonic vibrations in communication with a base, thereby tenderizing and imparting flavor to the foodstuffs. In addition to the ultrasonic vibrations, the apparatus can include a marinade injection system that injects marinade into the meat prior to being subjected to the ultrasonic vibrations.

Abstract: An encoding/verifying apparatus and method for encoding/verifying RFID containing stock is provided. The encoding/verifying apparatus enables the verification of information already programmed on stock containing a RFID tag and/or encodes specific information to the RFID component of the stock while verifying that the proper stock is programmed with the correct information. Stock can either be on a roll or a fan fold with or without pin feeds. The stock will be read/encoded one at a time and advanced only after each successful read/write. Any stock that contains a failed RFID component will be marked so as to designate it as defective. In addition, methods for uniquely programming RFID containing stock are also provided.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a box, namely a pizza box having a bottom wall; a peripheral side wall attached to a periphery of the bottom wall; a top cover including a rear edge hingedly attached to the side wall, a front edge, and two side edges between the front edge and the rear edge. The box is fitted with a serving tray having handles on at least two opposing sides. The serving tray is designed to fit inside the pizza box. The box may contain at least two slits in the top cover, each slit extending along the front edge, side edge or back edge. These slits are configured so that the handles from the serving tray partially fit into each slit thereby providing additional support for the overall structure of the pizza box. This allows the pizza box to be constructed of lighter material with the additional support coming from the handles of the serving tray.

Abstract: The invention is directed to an apparatus for delivering activated microorganisms to an environment to be treated. The apparatus has a bioreactor containing microorganisms, a supply of organic and inorganic nutrients and a controller. The controller maintains the conditions of the bioreactor so as to maintain the microorganisms in the exponential phase of growth. The controller also doses a portion of the fluid in the bioreactor to the environment to be treated. The invention also provides a method for the biological treatment of wastes and an organic and inorganic composition used to feed the microorganisms in the bioreactor.
