RAZOR WITH INTERMITTENT ENCAPSULATION OF EMBEDDED BLADES
A razor assembly includes a cartridge assembly with a plurality of raised ridges that slide against the surface of a user's skin and offset a distance relative to the surface of the user's skin at which one or more blades cut hair.
One or more implementation disclosed herein provides razor assemblies that allow a user to have a less than smooth shave by changing the distance between razor blades and a razor blade guard. The distance between the razor blade(s) and the guard may be increased or decreased using a movable knob mechanism, a rotatable dial mechanism, a movable razor assembly and housing mechanism, a rotatable threaded handle, one or more slider mechanisms, a rotating blade mechanism, etc.

Sanitary faucet handle having multiple grasping regions
A sanitary water faucet handle has multiple levers, or grasping regions. Each lever includes an associated indicator, identifying whether the particular grasping region is intended for use in turning the faucet's water supply on, or off. The indicator may be in the form of indicia applied to a portion of at least one of the levers, a coloration of at least one of the levers, a variation in the relative length of at least one of the levers, or a variation of the height of at least one of the levers relative to a bottom surface of the handle. The handle is attachable to a conventional water valve, permitting the handle to be retrofitted as a replacement handle in existing faucet systems. A supplemental lever or grasping region may be attachable or releasably attachable to a preexisting lever of a faucet system. A powered faucet lever may be provided that reconfigures itself to automatically present one of two separate sets of grasping regions, depending upon whether the associated faucet is activated or deactivated.
An exercise device for a lower leg and foot is provided. The exercise device provides a user with the ability to exercise multiple muscles in both lower legs and both feet, and provides the user with multiple exercises with a single exercise device. Additionally, the exercise device is capable of providing variable resistances during exercise to accommodate users of different strength and to accommodate a user's increase in strength. To provide variable resistance, the exercise device includes a plurality of resilient resistance member interchangeably coupled to a housing of the exercise device.

A63B 21/055 - Exercising apparatus for developing or strengthening the muscles or joints of the body by working against a counterforce, with or without measuring devices using resilient force-resisters extension element type
A63B 23/10 - Exercising apparatus specially adapted for particular parts of the body for limbs, i.e. upper or lower limbs, e.g. simultaneously for lower limbs for feet or toes
A63B 21/00 - Exercising apparatus for developing or strengthening the muscles or joints of the body by working against a counterforce, with or without measuring devices
A63B 21/04 - Exercising apparatus for developing or strengthening the muscles or joints of the body by working against a counterforce, with or without measuring devices using resilient force-resisters attached to static foundation

A telephone system provides an alternative to being kept "on hold". When placed on hold, *8 or some other code can be dialed, which allows the party placed on hold to hang up his or her phone without disconnecting the call. To resume the call, the party that placed the call on hold dials any number on his or her phone and the phone of the party that had been placed on hold rings to signify that the call is off hold and can be resumed. When the call back is answered the call is resumed. In a first embodiment, the callback on hold operation is performed in cooperation with a telecommunication company's central office switch. In a second embodiment, dedicated circuitry and microprocessor firmware are added to consumer telephone equipment, performing the callback on hold operation without requiting any specific support from a central office switch. The present invention is disclosed in the environments of telephones, answering machines, combination telephone and answering machines, both corded and cordless telephones (with or without answering machines), cellular telephones, and standalone devices attachable between a telephone and/or answering system and the central office telephone lines. A "hold on hold" indicator lamp may optionally be employed. The indicator lamp circuitry detects brief DTMF tone pairs to signal the operation of a hold LED with a unique cadence indicating of a callback hold, rather than a normal hold condition.
