Abstract: An automobile theft deterrent system for providing still video images and continuously recorded video images of activities within the automobile and scenes external to the automobile. The system has a front video camera mounted in the front portion of the automobile, preferably against the rear surface of the rearview mirror, and an overhead video camera mounted on the automobile interior top surface, preferably adjacent to the overhead light. The front video camera points in the forward direction to outside of the automobile. The overhead video camera points downwardly from behind the one way mirror surface of the rear view mirror to view activities within the automobile. The images from both cameras are transmitted to a hand-held receiver device held by the automobile owner. The receiver has a viewing screen which enables the owner to view the images from the camera.

Abstract: A locator apparatus for locating a lost wallet, pocketbook, or a purse is disclosed. Other embodiments of the apparatus could be incorporated into other commonly used items such as purses, sunglasses, keys, etc. The apparatus would be a phone chip and speaker combination that would be incorporated into any one of a wide variety of items that are both frequently used and frequently misplaced, such as wallets, pocketbooks, purses, keys, sunglasses or regular glasses, and other such items. The phone chip would be capable of “receiving” a telephone call, at which time, it would activate the speaker, which would begin to make noise. This noise would allow an individual to find the appropriate “lost” or misplaced item quickly and efficiently.

Abstract: An exercise vest used to facilitate strengthening and toning of the user's upper arm, lower arm, and shoulder muscles. At least one hand grip is positioned on the back portion of the vest. The hand grips include shoulder grips and side grips. An elastic band extends between one of the shoulder grips and one of the side grips, along the vest back portion. The elastic band provides the tension necessary for exercising the user's arm muscles. A ring encircles the elastic band at a point below the hand grips to maintain the hand grips in their resting positions on the vest. A sleeve extends between the shoulder grip and side grip, covering the elastic band. In use, the user grips one set of the hand grips and pulls said grips forward and away from his or her body. The stretching of the elastic band serves to exercise the muscles.
