A vessel of this type is to be constructed in such a way that it can be placed in the standing compartment in the door and between the shelves of an ordinary domestic refrigerator even in the case of a capacity of 2 l and more. Furthermore, the vessel is to be designed in such a way that it is easy to clean and always allows pouring out without effort. If possible, a plurality of vessels are to be connectable to one another to form larger cluster. For this purpose, the vessel body 4 has in cross-section approximately the shape of a stretched oval with essentially straight longer vertical side walls 6, 8 and shorter curved vertical side walls 10, 12. The vessel body merges gradually without steps into the vessel neck 14. The carrying handle 27, 50 is constructed as a U-shaped moulding, the U-web of which is of straight or curved construction and serves as a handle 30, 56 and is connected to the longer side walls 6, 8. The vessel neck is arranged inclined at an angle to the vertical or is of straight construction. The vessel neck preferably has a circular cross-section, the radius of curvature of which corresponds approximately to the radius of curvature of the shorter side walls 10, 12 of the vessel body 4. <IMAGE>

Abstract: There is disclosed a set of color gages for assisting in selecting harmonious color combinations in accordance with those found in nature and the method of using such gages. In nature all colors can be classified into one of three groups called Solis, Aero und Aqua. All colors within each one of these three groups are compatible with each other, i.e., appear harmonious to the human eye. In addition, Aero colors are compatible with either Solis or Aqua colors, but not Solis with Aqua colors. The gages contain a plurality of colored segments which are Solis, Aero, and Aqua versions of each of the colors red, pink, yellow, green, purple, white, brown, and blue, without Aqua brown and Solis blue. The colored segments can be compared to a selected dominant color to determine which group's colors should be selected to achieve harmonious color combinations. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An omega-shaped core is wrapped with two coils arranged to be responsive to magnetic permeable metal and conductive metal objects. The omega core allows the proximity sensor to operate as a saturated core sensor, a variable reluctance sensor or an eddy current loss sensor. The core is made from a thin, highly permeable metal that is preferably formed from a single piece of sheet metal, and comprises a substantially flat, rectangular member bent in four locations to form a head portion, two legs, and two feet. The bends form right angles so that the head portion is perpendicular to the two legs, and the two legs are perpendicular to the two feet. The two feet are parallel to each other and also parallel to the head portion. The core is positioned in a housing with two inductive coils, each coil being positioned around a leg portion of the core. A calibration bolt can be placed through the center of the core to change the level of inductance measured from the two inductive coils.
