Abstract: A carrying case comprises a housing having a bottom and a plurality of walls extending from the bottom thereof. A drawer is received by the housing when the carrying case is in a closed configuration. To move the carrying case from the closed configuration to an open configuration, the drawer is removed from the housing and rotated substantially ninety degrees relative to the housing such that the drawer extends substantially perpendicular to the housing when the carrying case is in the open configuration.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for monitoring and reporting alarms includes a central monitoring facility which monitors a plurality of remote subscribers. Alarm information is reported to the central monitoring facility by a subscriber. The central monitoring facility causes a summary of the alarm to be transmitted to specific other subscribers. This enables the recipients of the summary to provide follow up reports and to assess how to respond to the report. GPS coordinates are used to identify the location of a reporting subscriber and to select specific other subscribers who should receive the report according to the location of the reporting subscriber.
