Abstract: A memo clip with mounting pins for releasably holding articles to an adjacent object comprises a clamping portion and a mounting portion. The clamping portion has first and second clamping members operatively connected to one another and movable between an open position and a substantially closed position for releasably holding an article therebetween. A biasing member connected to the first and second clamping members biases them toward their closed position. The mounting portion of the clip is operatively connected to the clamping portion and has at least one mounting prong that is adapted for insertion in and securement to the adjacent object for mounting the clip to the adjacent object. The mounting prong is movable between a safety position with an insertion end of the prong substantially flush against the first clamping member and an in-use position with the insertion end spaced from the first clamping member to facilitate insertion of the mounting prong into the adjacent object.

Abstract: A retractable modem cord device wherein a window in the front face of the case of the device is provided, through which a design, such as a pattern, inscription, or logo can be seen. When a retractable cord of this device is pulled out of the case it causes the design to rotate or spin. Likewise, when the cord is retracted back into the case of the retractable modem cord device, the design spins. Thus, anyone observing the retractable modem cord device will see the spinning design. It is believed this spinning design will be interesting to observers, thus lending special appeal to the device.
