Abstract: The method and apparatus for shoreline land mass reclamation which includes replacement of at least one groyne section along a shoreline wherein the section includes a pair of spaced stanchions which are connected by at least one linkage member which supports vertically extending baffle elements and wherein the at least one linkage member is piovtably connected such that the spaced stanchions may be vertically adjustable relative to one another.
Abstract: A control system for turning on the headlights (and parking lights) of an automobile when the windshield wipers are turned on, has a gating circuit that operates relay circuits to the headlights, the gating circuit electronically latching "in" the headlight relay circuit so that the headlights remain on when the windshield wiper is turned off in order to avoid inadvertent turning off of the hedlights at night time and the gate circuit electronically turning off the headlight (and parking light) relay circuits whenever the headlight switch is turned on or whenever the ignition is turned off, thus assuring that the headlights will remain on until the headlights and ignition switches are turned off. The relay circuits controlled by the gating circuit may operate a mechanically or electrically latched relay device to hold the headlights (and parking lights) on until the relay circuit controlled by the gating circuit operates the mechanically or electrically latched relay device to turn the headlights off.

Abstract: A continuous generally frusto-conically shaped ring for use in retaining the side walls of conventional automatic drip type coffee filters in erect orientation within filter support trays and which include an annular flange which is engageable with the top or sides of the filter in such a manner so as to not interfere with the normal passage of hot water through the coffee filter.
Abstract: Suspended garment and/or shoe bags are mounted to an extendable or telescoping support member which is mounted to a clothing rod in a closet by a hanger bar which is carried by the telescoping member so as to be extendable generally perpendicularly with respect to the elongated axis of the clothing rod so that the garment and/or shoe bags are selectively displayed in an area spaced outwardly of any other articles of clothing which may be suspended from the clothing rod.
