Abstract: At least one socket in a swimming pool allows for the mounting of at least one pool accessory by way of a post mounted in the socket. In some embodiments, the socket is located in the bottom of the pool. In some embodiments, the socket is coupled to an electricity source to provide electricity to the post or pool accessory. In some embodiments, the socket is coupled to an air source to provide bubbles. In some embodiments, the socket is coupled to a fog source to provide a fog supply. In some embodiments, the socket is coupled to a water source to provide water flow to the post or pool accessory. In some embodiments, the fluid supplied to the post includes a scent. In some embodiments, the socket includes a light source and the post includes optical fibers to transmit light from the light source through the post.

Abstract: The shot training device is used as a training aid for learning to play pocket billiards. The device aids the student in learning the three major components of a shot for pocket billiards: pocketing the object ball, cue ball direction, and cue ball speed control. The device includes an object ball circle for placement of an object ball. The device also includes an imaginary cue ball circle for aiming the cue ball. The device further includes cut angle lines and cue ball path lines for determining a cut angle to the object ball and plotting a path of the cue ball after impact with the object ball. A kit and a method of training a user to play billiards are also disclosed.

Abstract: The present invention provides a slightly bendable nail file which has indicia in the form of a pictorial image. The file comprises a flexible foamed synthetic resin core sandwiched between paperboard panels, at least one of which is of a luminescent material. At least one paperboard panel has a layer of transparent grit bonded thereto. At least one paperboard panel also has an image formed thereon, the image being outwardly visible through the transparent grit. The second paperboard panel may optionally have a mirror coating. A sound chip, light emitting diode (LED), or image projector may optionally be imbedded in the foam core for enhanced audible and visual messaging.

Abstract: A slightly bendable nail file which has indicia in the form of a pictorial image. The file comprises a flexible foamed synthetic resin core sandwiched by paperboard panels. Each paperboard panel has a layer of transparent grit bonded thereto. One paperboard panel has a photograph formed thereon, the photograph being outwardly visible through the transparent grit. The other paperboard panel has a mirror coating.

Abstract: Implement having a flexible core to which compressible, resilient and flexible fiber mats bearing fine abrasive material are secured to form a tool that can conveniently conform or coincide with convex, concave, flat or curved surfaces and to corners and crevices to enable improved, easier cleaning and smoothing of relatively soft greenware without damage to the surface. The tool can be an elongated member with parallel working surfaces or it can be a cylindrical, conical or other shape for adaptation to special requirements.

Abstract: Device for removing fiber pills and lint from a fabric in which a supporting substrate has affixed on one surface an abrasive coating of substantially uniform particles lying in the range of 280-600 grit size for removing pills and on another surface a fabric with a slant, hook or loop pile to remove lint. The device can be a pliant foam sheet with abrasive-coated film and fabric pile on opposite surfaces or a heavier brushlike implement having those two surfaces.
