20100050496 | FISHING ROD WITH ERGONOMIC HANDLE - The present invention provides a fishing rod with ergonomic handle. The disclosed fishing rod places the angler's wrist in a more ergonomically correct position while waiting for a fish to strike. To accomplish this the fishing rod includes a flexible rod including a plurality of ferrules extending downward; a handle including a primary handle substantially parallel to and vertically above the flexible rod and a secondary handle extending upwards from the primary handle. The primary handle also includes a reel seat for downward attachment of a fishing reel. A transition structure is joined at one end to the flexible rod and at the opposing end to the upper portion of the secondary handle. | 03-04-2010 |
20110041555 | GEMSTONE SETTING INCLUDING A GEM FACETED TO DISPLAY A PLURALITY OF IMAGES FROM AN OUTER FOCAL REGION - The present invention includes gemstone settings and methods of manufacturing gemstone settings including a primary gem capable of displaying a plurality of images corresponding to one or more objects placed within in a focal region outside of the primary gem. The plurality of images is displayed by flattening the bottom of the primary gem and faceting the crown to specifications that allow light to pass through the gem and not substantially reflect against a faceted pavilion. | 02-24-2011 |
20120011763 | RELEASABLE FISHING SINKER ASSEMBLY - A fishing sinker assembly is provided including a weighted body and an elongated insert. The weighted body includes a throughbore defining a cavity extending between two openings. The elongated insert extends through the cavity and includes a proximal end, a distal end, and a middle portion. The proximal end includes a connecting means for connecting the fishing sinker to a fishing line. The distal end is larger than the size of at least one of the openings, wherein the distal end prevents the body from being slidably removed over the distal end. The middle potion includes a breakaway segment positioned within the cavity. The breakaway segment has a tensile strength less than that of the proximal end, distal end and fishing line attached to the proximal end such that added tension will cause the breakaway segment to selectively break prior to breaking of the proximal end, distal end or fishing line. | 01-19-2012 |
20120030966 | FOOTWEAR - Footwear is provided including an upper, a porous insole, a midsole, and a solid outsole. The insole has pores that permit sand to fall through the insole.

20120067083 | JEWELRY ITEM FOR SELECTIVE DISPLAY OF COLORED REGIONS HIDDEN BENEATH A GEMSTONE - A jewelry item including a gemstone mounted to a gemstone setting having a plurality of reflective surfaces that selectively display colors from a region hidden beneath the gemstone while preventing viewing of the colored region through the gemstone itself. | 03-22-2012 |
20120111053 | ARTICLE OF JEWELRY HAVING REPULSIVE MAGNETIC ELEMENTS AND METHODS OF MANUFACTURING - An article of jewelry and method of manufacture, including a pliable strand; and a plurality of precious or semiprecious objects movably positioned along the pliable strand. Each of the plurality of objects including a magnetic insert extending between opposing surfaces, which itself is formed from two magnets separated by a magnetic stabilizer and aligned such that the opposing ends of the magnetic insert have the same polarity thereby creating repulsive forces between each of the plurality of objects along the strand. | 05-10-2012 |
20130087585 | BEVERAGE SAVER/POURER - A beverage pourer/saver having a unique ball stopper mechanism is provided. A ball stopper lifting mechanism is incorporated into the spout of the pourer and is configured so as to allow a ball stopper to operate to both seal the container when not in used, and provide a smooth pouring action during use. The ball stopper lifting mechanism lifts the ball stopper during a pouring action such that the poured liquid can pass under the ball stopper, while simultaneously allowing air to pass over the ball stopper. | 04-11-2013 |
20130125584 | Article of Jewelry Having Repulsive Magnetic Elements and Methods of Manufacturing - An article of jewelry including a pliable strand; and a plurality of precious or semiprecious objects movably positioned along the pliable strand. Each of the plurality of objects including a magnetic insert extending between opposing surfaces, which itself is formed from two magnets separated by a magnetic stabilizer and aligned such that the opposing ends of the magnetic insert have the same polarity thereby creating repulsive forces between each of the plurality of objects along the strand. | 05-23-2013 |
