Abstract: A necktie having a wide end portion formed of a material presenting a first pattern and a narrow end portion formed of a material presenting a second, different, contrasting pattern. The necktie is tied around the neck of a user in a fashion such that the narrow end portion emerges from the knot in front of the wide end portion and hangs down freely from the knot in pendulum fashion in front of the wide end portion so as to present a contrasting pattern to the wide end pattern. Alternatively, the necktie may be tied around the neck of a user in a fashion such that the wide end portion emerges from the knot in front of the narrow end portion and hangs down freely from the knot in pendulum fashion behind the wide end portion so that the wide end portion covers the narrow end portion in conventional fashion and the pattern presented by the tie is that of the wide end portion.

Abstract: A dehumidifier for swimming pool enclosures includes a first circuit having a condenser, an evaporator, and refrigerant, and a second circuit including the evaporator of the first circuit, a second evaporator and a heat sink fluid movable along the circuit. The second evaporator is positioned upstream with respect to the condenser of the first circuit. A bypass directs air around the second evaporator and a second bypass selectively directs air around both the second evaporator and the condenser.
