An example apparatus includes a cavity defined by a vehicle door, with the cavity being configured to stow and charge an accessory device. The apparatus may also include an accessory cradle movable within the cavity and configured to retain the vehicle accessory. Examples of a method may include providing a cavity in an end portion of a vehicle door, with the cavity being configured to stow and charge an accessory device. The method may further include installing an accessory cradle within the cavity, with the accessory cradle being movable within the cavity and configured to retain the vehicle accessory.

A microprocessor controlled computer security system is disclosed that provides for controlled access to single or multiple components of a computer system. The security system includes a magnetic card reading and encoding device that reads component access and time allotment data from a magnetically encoded card. A microcontroller, which incorporates a microprocessor, processes the data read by the reading and encoding device and responsively issues enable or disable signals through a component interface circuit to the computer system component or components to be enabled or disabled. The components to be enabled may be the video display device, hard disk drive, or external central processing units of slave computers. The security system further includes audio and visual indicators that provide system and component status information. The magnetic card reading and encoding device is operable in a program mode, wherein the magnetic card is programmed with component access and time data, and a reading mode wherein the reading and encoding device reads and updates the access and time data on the card.

An electronic estrus detector that may be affixed to the back of a cow comprises a tapeswitch connected to a counter for storage and display of number of mounts by another cow. When a cow mounts another cow equipped with the estrus detector, the impact of the mounting cow upon the monitored cow closes the tapeswitch and increments the counter, such that the contents of the counter indicate the estrus condition of the monitored cow. In a second embodiment, a modified electronic estrus detector indicates estrus condition based upon satisfaction of a mount-second index. A user programs the estrus detector to shwo when a specified number of mounts, coupled with a specified total time duration of all mounts, has occured.
