Abstract: A device for transporting a plumbing tool that includes an outer housing defining an interior cavity, the outer housing having at least one rigid panel member having an outer periphery with the rigid panel forming a support base. The outer housing also has at least one reclosable drain hole and at least one reclosable access aperture defined therein as well as member mounted on the outer housing that is, movable between a first position in which the at least one reclosable access aperture is open and a second position in which the movable member is in watertight sealed relationship with the outer housing. The device also has at least one first anchor clamp connected to the rigid panel member of the outer housing and projecting into the interior of the interior cavity defined in therein. The at least one first anchor clamp is configured to releasably engage a toilet auger and maintain the toilet auger in fixed relationship relative to the at least one rigid panel.

Abstract: The present invention provides shelf-stable shredded cheeses and methods of preparing such shelf-stable shredded cheeses using a combination of a natural or process cheese, a cheese powder, glycerin, and a filler. The shredded cheeses of this invention are shelf-stable at ambient temperatures, have good organoleptic properties, and exhibit good melt restriction and essentially no browning upon melting. The shredded cheeses of this invention are especially adapted for incorporated into, or use on or with, snack foods (e.g., chips) for retail sale which can be stored at ambient temperatures.

Abstract: Disclosed is a combination safety device and gutter protector for use with a ladder which is leaned at an angle to the wall of a house or the like, the upper ends resting laterally secure against a relatively narrow extending surface of the device and not against the outer edge of a gutter installed on the eave of a roof. The device of the invention serves to prevent slippage or other undesirable movement of a ladder when it is placed in position for use and is a support means supporting the ladder and its load directly to the fascia board of a house, rather than to the gutter. The device is an "H" shaped support means attached to a gutter backwall and to a fascia board and is composed of two spaced apart stanchions and a crossmember, each of the stanchions having a longitudinal passageway thereto and an elongated spike disposed in the passageway. One end of the spike protrudes through the gutter backwall and is embedded in the fascia board.
