Abstract: This invention relates to novel whitening agents for cellulosic substrates. The whitening agents are comprised of at least two components: at least one chromophore component and at least one polymeric component. Suitable chromophore components generally fluoresce blue, red, violet, or purple color when exposed to ultraviolet light, or they may absorb light to reflect these same shades. The whitening agents are further characterized by having a dispersion component value of the Hansen Solubility Parameter of less than or equal to about 17 MPa0.5. This invention also relates to laundry care compositions including but not limited to liquid and/or powder laundry detergent formulations and rinse added fabric softening (RAFS) compositions that comprise such whitening agents.

Abstract: A steering wheel lock having a triple hook, a bar receiving mechanism, a lock box, a bar fixable to the lock box, and a lock is disclosed. The triple hook, via its lock box attaches to the steering wheel of a vehicle and is secured with the lock, which is attached with the bar. The length of the bar is adjusted within the lock box to provide a tight and secure fit customized to the particular dimensions of the steering wheel. A blinking LED alerts a passerby that the lock is engaged. A second embodiment covers the center of the steering wheel to prevent airbag theft and secure opposite sides of the steering wheel.

Abstract: A liquid dispenser first contains, then dispenses a cleaning solution, and finally might be used to scrubs or cleans a dirty surface. The dispenser has a hollow handle that serves as a reservoir for the cleaning solution and at each end of the handle a cleaning implement; specifically a scrubber and a sponge. When a user presses the selected implement against a cleaning surface, a valve is opened, allowing the cleaning solution to flow. The user might then scrub a dirty surface.
