Abstract: A hollow, individual celery cylinder cut to a length of about one to twelve inches, and having an outside diameter of about 0.1 to 2 inch and an inside diameter of 0.075 to 1.85 inches. The celery cylinder is mild in taste and resistant to rupture upon application of internal vacuum to the cylinder, such that it can be used as a drinking straw. The cylinder can also be stuffed with a foodstuff, to form a novel food product.

Abstract: A desktop wire management apparatus comprises an elongated wire storage compartment removably mountable under an access opening in the desktop, a forwardly openable front door in a front wall of the wire storage compartment, and a self contained wiring module removably mountable in a wiring module opening in a rear wall of the wire storage compartment at a vertical position above the bottom of the wire storage compartment. An access door is pivotally mounted in a frame in the desktop access opening, with a temporary power tap being mounted on the underside of the access door.

Abstract: The shrinker comprises a soft, pliable, sock-like receptacle for the stump having a closed toe and an open upper end. Initially flat, opposite sides of the shrinkere are joined along their longitudinal extremities without seams due to the one-piece, knitted construction of the shrinker. By knitting the shrinker on flatbed knitting machines, a tapered configuration without seams can be achieved through the technique of adding more knitting needles to progressively widen the shrinker as the knitting process is carried out after beginning at the toe. The lack of seams at the toe and along the sides increases comfort, and the yarn utilized for the knit fabric is stretchable to such an extent that at 50% stretch of the shrinker, a compression of approximately 10 to 30 millimeters of mercury is achieved, whereby to reduce edema and shape the stump in preparation for receiving a prosthesis.
