Abstract: A system that provides selective notification of user availability may include a processor circuit. The processor circuit may be configured to receive an availability status update of a user for a period of time. The processor circuit may be configured to update an aggregate calendar with the availability status update of the user for the period of time, where the aggregate calendar includes availability statuses of a set of users including the user. The processor circuit may be further configured to determine at least one user of the set of users that is likely to be interested in the availability status update of the user based at least in part on a user relation criterion. The processor circuit may be further configured to provide an indication of the availability status update of the user for the period of time on a calendar of the at least one user.

Abstract: A leash assembly includes a first belt, a second belt and at least one connector piece coupled to the first belt. The first belt is configured to be worn over the second belt. The first and second belts can be worn by a subject around the torso, shoulders, neck or wrist. Each connector piece is configured to move along at least a portion of the first belt. In some embodiments, the connector piece is a link configured to be receive the first belt and to move along the first belt. Each connector piece is coupled with a leash.
