Abstract: A container has a base flange on a base, and a lid flange on a lid. When the container is in a closed position the lid flange and the base flange are in juxtaposition and one of the flange edges defines a flange support surface. A lid surface is spaced above an upper base periphery when in the closed position to define a lid volume, and the base section defines a base volume. The flange support surface extends a first distance such that when the volume of the container is loaded with a rated capacity of product and the container is placed in a standing position on a flat surface using the flange support surface and a front base corner as support elements, a center of gravity of the container generates a moment about an axis of the base corner that biases the container in the standing position.

Abstract: A light fixture usable in train tunnels provides normal mode downlighting for track and walkway lighting and a selective task lighting mode where higher-lumen lighting is provided in at least the same downlighting direction as the track and walkway lighting. The normal lighting illumination level is at least 0.25 to 2.00 foot-candles at the illuminated surfaces. The task lighting mode provides at least 5.00 foot-candles to the same illuminated surfaces. The task lighting mode is achieved with the same light source that provides the normal mode lighting or with additional light sources that are activated together with or instead of the normal lighting mode light sources. The light sources can be a plurality light emitting diode (LED) engines that include a plurality of LEDs. The task lighting mode can also use another light source to provide additional task lighting up from the fixture.

Abstract: A tree stand having a base assembly including a bottom, a sidewall, a plurality of stanchions, and a plurality of receivers. The bottom, sidewall and plurality of stanchions define a water reservoir. Each stanchion includes an upper portion having a bore arranged and designed to engage a bolt for securing a tree. The tree stand includes a plurality of legs having a connecting end and a distal end. The connecting end of each leg is arranged and designed to be releasably attached to one of the plurality of receivers.
