  • Publication number: 20110019861
    Abstract: An audio source device may be used with a garment such as a hooded garment by passing the audio wires into a channel in the hood and having them exit the hood inside hollow lanyards with earbuds at the ends. A means to fix the wires and the lanyards to each other inside the hood is shown; and a means is shown to prevent lateral movement inside the hood. The wires and lanyard are crimped at the earbuds to prevent relative movement, the wires also being slacked inside the lanyard. The wire inside one or both of the lanyards can have an activatible microphone and the a source device can be a Bluetooth equipped device.

  • Patent number: 5758451
    Abstract: An improved bobber having two separate floatation units, or bobbers, is shown and its use described. The smaller of the two bobbers is fit inside an aperture in the larger. The two floats are connected to one another along the fishing line. The larger of the two is weighted in order that it floats in an upright position and keeps the smaller float inside the larger until the fish strikes. When a fish strikes bait at the end of the line, the smaller float will come out of the larger one. In the event that the fish is not hooked, the smaller float will float at the top of the water thus indicating a miss. A stop means on the line above the apparts limits the distance the smaller one can travel from the larger float after the two parts are separated.
