Abstract: A portable carrier adapted for releasable connection to the human body and adapted to carry an auxiliary item such as keys, Mace™, pepper spray, or the like, includes a base strap having first and second parts of a hook and loop type fastener secured thereto. The strap is adapted to be wrapped around a part of the human body and secured to itself to releasably secure the strap to the human body at a desired location. The strap includes means in the form of an attachment loop, a cylindrical pocket, or a pouch adapted to releasably retain the auxiliary item in a manner for rapid-access by the user of the carrier. Alternatively, the auxiliary item may be adapted to directly attach to the base strap itself.

Abstract: An object oriented architecture is provided wherein a plurality of objects are defined in the system. Each of the objects can comprise either a data oriented object, a program oriented object or a graphics oriented object. The parameters of the object are defined in an object table which includes as an integral part thereof a link table. Each object is linkable through the link table to other objects on the system, with each object on the system having a unique object number. The provision of the object's number in the link table defines relationships with other objects in the system, which relationships can either be automatically created as a result of a predetermined functional aspect of the system or defined by the user. These relationships are bidirectional. The links are only a single link deep and are all on the same plane. These links allow system access to various features such as word processing files, FAX information, information about individuals or information about E-Mail.
