A stowage module and cleaning cloth assembly for providing a readily accessible cleaning cloth includes a shell, a cloth, and a lid. The shell is mountable by a first face to at least one of an electronic device and a case that is engaged to the electronic device. The shell has a second face, which is open so that an interior space defined by the shell is accessible. The cloth can be used to clean a surface, such as a screen of the electronic device, and is selectively positionable in the interior space. The lid is selectively engageable to the shell to close the second face to retain the cloth in the shell. The lid can be disengaged from the shell by a user, positioning the user to access the cloth to clean the surface.

A portable device for receiving a liquid from a floor via a squeegee or another scraping implement includes a container having a bottom and an opening that is distanced from the bottom, a ramp that extends from the opening of the container to a position generally levelled with the bottom, the ramp being adapted to receive the squeegee in a scraping movement thereon, and a handle portion that is more distanced from the bottom of the container than the opening thereof. The handle portion is adapted to receive a blade portion of the squeegee in order to move the device therewith.

A method of manufacturing a flexible intrinsically antimicrobial absorbent porosic composite controlling for an effective pore size using removable pore-forming substances and physically incorporated, non-leaching antimicrobials. A flexible intrinsically antimicrobial absorbent porosic composite controlled for an effective pore size composited physically incorporated, high-surface area, non-leaching antimicrobials, optionally in which the physically incorporated non-leaching antimicrobial exposes nanopillars on its surface to enhance antimicrobial activity. A kit that enhances the effectiveness of the intrinsically antimicrobial absorbent porosic composite by storing the composite within an antimicrobial container.

Methods for hosting online video games are provided. The method includes generating a plurality of video frames and initiating a sending of each one of the plurality of video frames to a client. Each of the video frames that is sent is compressed. Then, stopping the compression and sending of video frames when one of the plurality of video frames is taking longer than a frame time to compress and send. A frame time is defined as one over a frame rate, and wherein stopping the compression of video frames includes ignoring the video frames by an encoder. The method includes continuing to compress and send audio data to the client when one or more of the plurality of video frames are not sent to the client. The client is configured to display a received video frame for more than one frame time when a video frame is not received.

A caddy includes an outer shell, an inner compartment that is surrounded by the outer shell and connected to a top rim of the outer shell, and a handle connected to the inner compartment. The outer shell includes a plurality of exterior walls that define a plurality of corners. At each corner, a stabilizer is connected to two adjacent exterior walls and extends outward for the exterior walls. A support surface includes bottom surfaces of the exterior walls and the stabilizer, so that an area having a periphery defined by the outer ends of the stabilizers is larger than an area having a periphery defined by the corners. The inner compartment includes pockets having an open top and a closed bottom.

A caddy system includes a caddy and stabilizers. The caddy includes an outer shell, an inner compartment, and a handle. The outer shell has walls that define corners. A bottom edge of the outer shell includes bottom surfaces of the walls. The caddy also includes a top rim. The inner compartment is surrounded by the outer shell and connects to the outer shell at the top rim. The inner compartment has a plurality of pockets. Each pocket has an open top and a closed bottom. The handle is connected to the inner compartment. The stabilizers connect to the caddy at the corners. An area defined by outer ends of the connected stabilizers is larger than an area defined by the bottom edge of the caddy.

A hanger assembly for hanging wash mitts, rags and the like above a bucket includes a top subassembly with a mast and spaced apart arms extending radially from the mast. A bottom subassembly includes a bucket engaging structure and a shaft, to which the mast of the top subassembly is coupled (e.g., rotatably coupled). The bucket engaging structure of the bottom subassembly may include in one embodiment a plate, a tail and a pair of legs for engaging the sidewall of the bucket, or in another embodiment a ring or disc that sits on the bottom of the bucket.
