Abstract: A swatter that is available in four design configurations. All design configurations comprise a hand section with an upper section and a lower section, with an opening on the hand section created when the upper section is attached to the lower section, and four or five internal finger channels that allow a person to insert a hand through the opening into the hand section. A swatting section is attached to the hand section with a plurality of overlapping vanes that create an accordion structure. The swatting section's first end is attached to the second end of the hand section either permanently or non-permanently with the non-permanently attachment allowing the swatting section to be removed from the hand section. The longitudinal length of the swatting section's first end is less than the second end, which causes vanes to fan outward as the vaners extend from the hand section.

Abstract: A garment packing system that is comprised of three design configurations of a folding garment hanger that allows a garment to be placed on the banger and the hanger along with the garment to be folded. Once a hanger and garment are folded, they can be secured to a structural element within a luggage interior. If desired, multiple hangers with garments can be stacked and secured together. The stacked hanger with garments can then be secured as a single unitary configuration within a luggage interior.

Abstract: A method for conducting a vulnerability show that is disclosed in three variations. The first variation of the show has a protagonist who visits a location and determines how prone to terrorist or other attack, or natural or man-made disaster the location is, and subsequently, how vulnerable people at the location are should a negative event occur. The second variation has at least one participant and at least one host interacting during or after a simulated terrorist or other attack, or other form of exposure that results in vulnerability, which could be an attack on a location, a hijacking or a hostage taking scenario. In the third variation instead of a terrorist or other attack, the vulnerability situation consists of a natural or man-made disaster. Some examples of these disasters include an earthquake, a fire, a tornado, a hurricane, a flood, a structure collapse or any other disaster that could occur often with little or no warning.

Abstract: A method for conducting a health, wellness and weight loss reality show that partners at least one participant with at least one host. The method has the participant going to a collaborating store and selecting various products for purchase and use. The host(s) accompanies the participant(s) and comments on/judges the selected products. The host(s) will point out the strengths and the weaknesses of the products from a health, wellness and weight loss potential and perspective. An alternate method has the host interact with the participant immediately after the participant leaves the store after shopping, or the host can visit the participant's dwelling and comment on judge existing products in the cupboards or refrigerator. Whichever method is employed, the goal is to allow an audience to watch as an average/common person selects and purchases, or possesses consumable products that could be detrimental to their health, wellness and optimal weight.

Abstract: A wireless device charging pad (WDCP) that is laid on a surface such as a tabletop and will wirelessly charge a device such as a wireless phone or table computer that is placed on the pad. The WDCP has two substrates, with a charging system sandwiched between the substrates. The charging system comprises a board, batteries each with a charge and discharge protection circuit, boost converters, and an external battery charger that receives power from a power source such ad home or business utility power. The battery charger plugs into the WDCP and provides power to the charging system. Once the charging system is charged, a person simply places their wireless device on the pad, which then automatically wirelessly charges the wireless device.

Abstract: A business model for a computer readable medium that provides a method of acquiring, to storing and displaying a person's status regarding viral infection, particularly the COVID-19 coronavirus, as well as vaccination information. The computer readable medium uses a software program that operates on a computer or a wireless device such as a smart phone or tablet computer. A person will have an viral infection/COVID-19 test performed by a medical professional. The test results, which show the person's status, are then displayed on the computer or wireless device. Any business or other entity where multiple people congregate in a limited space then uses the BMFCRM to determine if it is safe to allow each person to enter the location. The status will be displayed as never had, previously had or currently has viral infection/COVID-19, and appropriate action can be taken based on the test results. Additionally, the BMFCRM will display information pertaining to a person's vaccination status.

Abstract: An influenza Status Registry (ISR) that provides a method of acquiring, storing and displaying a person's status regarding influenza, particularly the COVID-19 coronavirus, as well as vaccination information. The ISR uses a software program that operates on a computer or a wireless device such as a smart phone or tablet computer. A person will have an influenza/COVID-19 test performed by a medical professional. The test results, which show the person's status, are then displayed on the computer or wireless device. Any business or other entity where multiple people congregate in a limited space then uses the ISR to determine if it is safe to allow each person to enter the location. The status will be displayed as never had, previously had or currently has influenza/COVID-19, and appropriate action can be taken based on the test results. Additionally, the ISR will display information pertaining to a person's vaccination status.

Abstract: An electronic cigarette and fluid dispensing system (E-Cig FDS) that utilizes an electronic cigarette (e-cig) having an inner end, an outer end, and an outer surface with a first aperture and a second aperture, and a keyed fluid dispenser having a body with an inner surface, an outer surface, an open first end, and a second end. Located within the body at the first end is a plunger that can slideably move inside the body. Extending from the body's second end is an injector dimensioned to interface with the first aperture or second aperture. The fluid facilitates the smoking, or vaping, of the e-cig. A user can selectively choose if the fluid is safe, non-nicotine or nicotine-infused. The E-Cig FDS provides visual differentiation of the type of fluid that is being smoked, or vaped.

Abstract: A skin health and nutrition product that is comprised of a formulation of ingredients that can be orally ingested or topically applied. When orally ingested, or when topically applied, the product can aid in improving the health and appearance of a person's skin and provide general nutrition benefits. The product is designed to improve the quality of a person's skin from both oral ingestion and topical applications.

Abstract: An expandable structure (10) having a first chamber (12) and a second chamber (52). Each chamber has an upper layer (14,54), a lower layer (16,56), a right edge (18,58), a left edge (22,62), an upper edge (26,66) and a lower edge (30,68). The first chamber (12) is integrally attached to the second chamber (52), with the first chamber's lower edge (30) attached to the second chamber's upper edge (66). Separating the first chamber (12) from the second chamber (52) is a transverse seal (86). Located on the upper or lower layer of the first or second chamber (12,52) is at least one valve (76) that allows a fluid to be inserted into the chambers. Side conduits (88) can be added at each end of the transverse seal (86) to allow the fluid to pass from the first chamber (12) to the second chamber (52).
