Abstract: A dog leash attachment system for selectively and releasably attaching a dog leash to a dog collar or harness, wherein the dog leash and the dog collar or dog harness each comprises a portion of a fastener device further comprising at least one magnetic attachment component and at least one mechanical attachment component. One portion of the fastener device is attached in fixed relation to the dog leash at a position proximal to the distal end of the dog leash. Another magnet is disclosed for use in maintaining a portion of the fastener device proximally to the collar or harness when the leash is not in use.

Abstract: An organizational aid suitable for use with a tablet or other personal electronic device having at least one pocket, at least two spaced-apart, non-slip surface portions attached to a back surface of the organizational aid, a first array of magnets or ferrous metal elements disposed between the at least one pocket and a backing sheet of the organizational aid to releasably hold the organizational aid by magnetic attraction to an outwardly facing surface of an article such as a shell, skin, case or sleeve comprising a second array of magnets or ferrous metal elements, the shell, skin, case or sleeve also being configured to receive and releasably support the electronic device.

Abstract: An organizational aid suitable for use with a personal electronic device having a plurality of discrete pockets, at least one flexible security tab to secure the organizational aid in position on an outwardly facing surface of the device, at least two spaced-apart, non-slip surface portions attached to a back surface of the organizational aid, and at least one magnet or magnetic strip disposed adjacent to the non-slip surface to releasably hold the organizational aid in a desired juxtaposition to an outwardly facing surface of the electronic device. If desired, at least one magnet can be attached to or embedded inside each of the non-slip surface portions, and the magnets and non-slip surfaces will cooperate with the security tab or tabs to hold the organizational aid in place during transport of the electronic device.

Abstract: A small clothing item management system holds small clothing items on a beam and prevents damage or loss to the clothing items. The clothing items are secured against a center beam by a flexible strap during the wash and dry cycles of the household laundry process. After completion of the laundry process, the small clothing items remain secured to the center beam for storage.
