A method for inhibiting the rate of the growth of vegetation is disclosed, which includes contacting the vegetation with an effective amount of a composition including 5-acetamido-2,4-dimethyltrifluoromethanesulfonanilide, ethyl 4-cyclopropyl methylene-3,5-dioxocyclohexanecarboxylate, flurprimidol or paclobutrazol. Each of the segments is a different color. In an alternative embodiment, the lock construction comprises a transmission mechanism that can drive two latches of the lock simultaneously to latch or unlatch the door. In a particular embodiment, the invention is employed in a serial-deserializer device. The retaining ring may comprise a retaining band with a dampener to suppress the spring effect experienced by the retaining band when it breaks upon the application of force. Each of the central panel and support panels includes a foldable frame member having a folded and an unfolded orientation, and a fabric material substantially covering the frame member.
