A first cushion first side is located adjacent to a base first side and features a first cushion component, a first heating element, and a first massaging component located inside. A second cushion second side is located adjacent to a base second side and features a second cushion component, a second heating element, and a second massaging component located inside. The third cushion is located between a first cushion second side and a second cushion first side and features a third cushion component, a third heating element, and a third massaging component located inside. The first cushion, the second cushion, and the third cushion are designed to enclose an appendage of a user on three sides.

Abstract: The present invention features an indoor smoking hood system disposed on a sash window frame. The hood comprises a first side tubular frame and a second tubular frame. The frames are joined together by adjustment locks for the attachment of variable window width. The frames are attached to the window frame via a plurality of window clamps. A hood frame is slidably and pivotably attached to the first side tubular frame and second tubular frame. A clear plastic hood provides enclosure of the hood for a smoking area. A fan plate is attached to the top of the tubular frame with a plurality of fan plate clips. An exhaust fan is installed on the fan plate to air in the hood to outdoor.

Abstract: A security monitoring, theft (and vandalism) prevention, and recovery system for automobiles includes an exterior light housing camera, an interior passenger cabin camera bar with an interior passenger cabin camera located within, an automatic release air valve located in a valve stem of an automobile wheel and tire assembly, and an automatic seatbelt immobilizing lock located in a seatbelt latch of an automobile. Upon detection of an invasive activity, an intrusion sensor provides an activation signal to a microprocessor. The exterior light housing camera and the interior passenger cabin camera are activated by the microprocessor to provide a video signal to the microprocessor via an activation signal. The quick release air valve and the seatbelt immobilizing lock are activated by the microprocessor to release air pressure from the wheel and tire and immobilize the seatbelt latch, respectively.

Abstract: An educational and interactive system for teaching children the importance of maintaining proper nutrition in order to induce healthy growth utilizing an interactive audio system that updates a child regarding the child's height and outputs pre-recorded messages. A system having an elongate member adapted to determine accurate height measurements of a child, the elongate member having a measurement indicator extending from the top of the face of the elongate member to the bottom of the face of the elongate member, the elongate member with a series of food decals disposed at predetermined locations on the face of the elongate member.

Abstract: A traction system featuring a housing with two or more reservoirs adapted to hold traction substances. The bottom of the housing is at a first angle causing the traction substances to collect in the dispensing portion of the housing. Outlet holes are disposed in the dispensing portion of the housing for each reservoir. A pair of doors temporarily covers the outlet holes. When the doors are in the open position, the doors are at angles such that the traction substances mix together as they are dispensed.

Abstract: A television frame device for wrapping around a flat screen television to display a picture or a poster in front of the television comprising a first panel, a second panel, a third panel, and a fourth panel, each panel having a generally U-shaped cross section, wherein the panels together form a generally rectangular frame for placing around the television such that the front surface of each of the panels is in front of the television and the back surface of each of the panels is behind the television. The television frame device further comprises a U-shaped secondary track disposed on the front surface of each of the panels, wherein the U-shaped secondary track is for receiving the picture or the poster.

Abstract: A vehicle security device is disclosed which includes a multiplicity of video cameras mounted in a vehicle in hidden fashion, and designed to be activated responsive to sensing of a condition such as, for example, unauthorized entry of a vehicle, striking of the vehicle and the like. A controller controls activation of the cameras as well as activation of a local and remote alarm system. A recording mechanism may be provided to record that which is observed by the cameras and a further transmitter may be employed to transmit video pictures to a remote location.
