Abstract: A pet food dish effective in frustrating crawling insects from reaching food contained in the dish includes a cylindrical base section for resting on a support surface, and a concave-convex dish section which fits downward into a concave opening in the upper end of the cylindrical base section. The dish section has a downwardly depending annular flange which concentrically overlies the upper cylindrical wall of the base section, thus cooperating with the base section to produce a tortuous path for crawling insects attempting to travel from the support surface to food in the dish. In a preferred embodiment, disposable flexible strips coated on the outer surface with sticky insect-trapping adhesive is fastened circumferentially around the outer cylindrical wall of the cylindrical base section, the annular dish flange overlying the strip and preventing accidental contact with the adhesive. A scent attractant may be included in the adhesive coating to lure and trap flying as well as crawling insects.

Abstract: An apparatus for simulating a large scale, rotating representation of the solar system inner planets and the Sun is described, comprising a series of moving and stationary concentric rings arranged about a pedestal, above which is a highly reflective globe representing the Sun supported on a column of high velocity air. Above each of the moving rings, and rotating with the rings, are globes representing the inner planets Mercury, Venus and the Earth, each planet being supported on a column of high velocity air. The Earth representation also has a Moon globe that rotates about it on a column of air. The entire top surface of the rings, moving and stationary, is painted dark blue, with plentiful representations of twinkling `stars` scattered about the surface. The apparatus is large, and is intended to be used as an educational tool in museums and the like, or be a large public display, or be combined with clocks.
