Abstract: One of the primary jobs of parents is to keep their children safe. Since most children play around their own home a portable home barrier will allow a parent to block off an area that is safe for children. The barrier is also designed to be portable and can be moved around the home to enclose a porch or deck or similar area.

Abstract: A remote cell phone back-up system which provides constant real-time redundant automatic back-up storage of all information contained in the cell phone at the wireless service provider and/or at a modular unit in a user's home or office. The remote cell phone back-up system automatically stores voice messages, missed calls, text messages, ring tones, phone numbers, email addresses, photographs, music and all data normally stored within the cell phone. The data may be accessed by phone or Internet connection.

Abstract: A board-type game to be played by two or more players. The game includes lasers where players selectively divert the path of the laser beams. The board apparatus comprises a surface, bounded by a frame, over which laser beams are directed down symbolic rows and columns which constitute a matrix of squares. Each square is a subregion of the surface piece, and is bounded along its four sides by raised edges which are parallel and perpendicular rows and columns of the board. The raised edges, creating recessed squares, assist in orienting the playing pieces. Playing pieces may contain no mirror, one mirror, or two mirrors (oriented back-to-back to produce separate surfaces reflecting in opposite directions). Playing pieces are placed in a predetermined “starting” configuration on the squares of the gridded surface piece. Depending on whether a playing piece contains a mirror or not, said piece may reflect an incident laser beam from a row to a column or from a column to a row.
