Abstract: Ballistic backpacks have a pouch having a back panel defining a compartment having a pouch lower edge, shoulder straps connected to the pouch, a closure flap connected to the compartment with a flap lower edge connected to the pouch at the pouch lower edge, the closure flap being movable between a closed position in which the closure flap extends up from the pouch lower edge and encloses the pouch, and a deployed position in which the closure flap depends downward from the pouch lower edge, a first ballistic panel connected to the back panel and having a first panel edge proximate the lower pouch edge, a second ballistic panel connected to the closure flap with a second panel edge proximate the lower flap edge at a level above the pouch lower edge, such that when the closure flap is in the deployed position, the first and second ballistic panels overlap.

Abstract: A composition and method of use for treating wounds of mammals comprising an effective amount of the plant extracts Calendula officinalis and sublimed sulfur in a topical pharmaceutical carrier and or tea tree oil. The unique combination of these active plant extracts treats any type of wound effectively and immediately by increasing granulation at the site of the wound, promoting metabolism of proteins and collagen, inducing new cell growth, stopping bleeding, minimizing pain, and providing anti-bacterial activity. The present invention also provides a calendula composition to be administered orally to a mammal to alleviate EIPH or bleeding. The present invention also provides a calendula composition to alleviate the negative effects of inflammation due to stress, to treat muscle pulls and joints, to improve the eating regimen of high performance mammals, to treat mastitis, anhydrosis, and treat or prevent an ulcer in the stomach or duodenum of a mammalian patient.
