Cherry Hill's 101 Arena Exercises is presented in a unique read-and-ride format that allows it to be hung like a calendar or draped over the rail of the ring for quick and easy reference.Edition/Copyright: 95
Hill, Cherry :
Cherry Hill is an internationally known riding instructor, horse trainer, breeder, and judge for several national breed organizations. She has taught university-level courses in horse management and training in the United States and Canada. Cherry has also written over 500 articles for numerous horse publications and gives seminars for horsemen and writers.
Cherry is the author of a plethora of books helpful in the horse world, including 101 Arena Exercises -- for which she received the Colorado Authors' League Top Hand Award for Specialty Writing in 1996. Her other Storey titles include: 101 Horsemanship & Equitation Patterns, From the Center of the Ring, Horse Handling and Grooming, Horse Health Care, and Your Pony, Your Horse.
One of Cherry's most recent books is Stablekeeping, a guide to creating a safe, healthy and efficient living environment for your horese. She has also written Trailering Your Horse, a helpful book on how to prepare for safe traveling.
A concise, talented writer, Cherry has won numerous writing awards -- among the most recent include the First Place in Editorial Excellence in Service to the Reader from American Horse Publications in 1993, and the 1994 Journalism Award from The American Farmers Association.
Cherry has also authored Storey's popular Arena Pocket Guides, six handy ring-side manuals teaching successive English and Western skills. These series titles are: Beginning English Exercises, Intermediate English Exercises, Advanced English Exercises, Beginning Western Exercises, Intermediate Western Exercises, and Advanced Western Exercises.
Juli S. Thorson, editor of Horse & Rider, offered the following praise for Cherry's Becoming an Effective Rider: ''With Becoming an Effective Rider, Cherry Hill shows that riding is a mental as well as a physical discipline. She teaches that mental aspect, providing what's missing in so many 'how-to' books on riding.'' More acclaim comes from Horse Illustrated for Cherry's Horsekeeping on a Small Acreage. ''Lavishly illustrated with large, clear photos and useful construction and landscaping plans, this book gives you enough information to plan your ranch before you actually begin breaking ground.''
Cherry rides year-round in the Colorado mountains and in her arena where she enjoys the logical approach to training offered by dressage. She breeds and trains horses at her Colorado ranch with her husband, equestrian illustrator and photographer Richard Klimesh.
Visit Cherry's web site at www.horsekeeping.com for even more information about this expert equestrienne!
''This book is one of the best training aids I've ever had. It is the best example I've ever seen of how a horse (any horse) should be properly ridden.''
--Kristin T., Gifford, PA
''I have been riding all my life and have been looking for a book like this. Hard to believe that it comes from a publisher just a few miles down the road.''
--Kimet H., Manchester, VT
''I love this book of exercises! When I first got my horse, all she wanted to do was buck and rear so I purchased this book and now my horse is almost perfect!''
--Tiffany L., Corpus Christie, FL
''This is a great book for the serious rider. I am now able to keep my Arabian Stallion in a permanent state of confusion, which is just what he needed, since he always anticipates every maneuver once he's done it more than twice. With all these different exercises I can build a good foundation and keep him sharp for reining. Very well illustrated.''
--Bibs D., Houston, Canada
''I find this book useful for some exercises for handicapped riders. It would be extremely useful if you had an exercises book solely geared for this purpose that would assist in motor skills, visual perception, fun verbal direction, memory, balance and strength.''
--Jeannie S., Columbia, NJ

another Caves of Myrddin
I got a boney man legbone to chew on! I also ate a spider that I found in a goblin house. It was crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside! Before that I tried to catch a big rat, but it went down a rat hole before I could get it. All the people made a giant stick out of smaller sticks, but when they were finished they didn't throw it for me even once. Instead they used it to poke the Magic Chair of People Talking.
Two of the people got into an argument over another stick they found. I thought they should have given it to me! But instead they split it. One guy got the hard part and the other the paper inside it. The guy who got the paper is dead now though. The guy who got the hard part was sad when his donkey died. I was sad too. Donkeys aren't stuck up jerks like horses.

RGD motif
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The tripeptide Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) was originally identified as the sequence within fibronectin that mediates cell attachment, and has been found in numerous proteins, including the integrins, a family of cell-surface proteins, which act as receptors for cell adhesion molecules. A subset of the integrins recognize the RGD motif within their ligands, the binding of which mediates both cell-substratum and cell-cell interactions.
NAPSA is another peptide shown to contain an RGD motif.

One would be hard-pressed to come up with a more fitting title for SILVERSTEIN?s new album than Arrivals & Departures. After all, this Canadian band sold over 300,000 copies of their previous release, Discovering The Waterfront, on the strength of word-of-mouth and a nonstop touring schedule that saw them crisscrossing the globe. The July 2007 release is a collection of full-throated rock passion that pervades all 11 songs on Arrivals & Departures. The album emphatically depicts a band that has?well, arrived. It?s been a long, but thrilling trip for this quintet, who came together in the Toronto suburb of Burlington, Ontario at the turn of the millennium. After putting out two of their own EPs, the band signed to Victory Records and released When Broken Is Easily Fixed, which raised eyebrows throughout North America as sales climbed well past 200,000. Showing no ill effects of any ?sophomore jinx,? SILVERSTEIN?s follow-up Discovering The Waterfront did considerably better; now total SILVERSTEIN record sales are beyond a half-million. The band fueled that momentum by performing on a slew of major tours, from A Taste of Chaos and Warped in the States to the Give It A Name and Download festivals in England. They topped it all off with their first headlining tour of America?the sold-out Never Shave Again tour. ?We took three months off after we finished Never Shave Again in December to totally dedicate ourselves to writing new material,? drummer Paul Koehler says. ?We were very eager to be creative again; it was a very exciting progress that flowed very naturally, since this was our third attempt at writing a full-length CD. It?s not as if we had a plan on what we wanted the new music to sound like. One of the really big benefits of our band is that we let things develop organically.? That especially pertains to Arrivals & Departure?s lyrical heart. ?I ended a seven-year relationship right before I started on this record,? singer Shane Told admits. ?That?s something you can?t ignore when you?re writing lyrics. This record is, by far, the most personal record I have ever made. Sometimes it?s hard for me to go back and listen to some of the songs, because the feelings behind them are still unsettling to me. But at the same time, I wanted to convey a message of hope through the record, in that no matter what happens, you can still get through the tough times, get better and be happy. That sense of transition impacted the recording of Arrivals & Departures as well. SILVERSTEIN decided to use a new producer--Mark Trombino, who previously worked with Jimmy Eat World and Blink 182. ?Before we went in the studio, I was the only one who had met him, and that was just one time,? Koehler recalls. ?We had to build a relationship quickly. It can be tricky doing that when you?re suddenly working with someone in the same room for 10-12 hours a day. Fortunately, he?s very talented and meticulous, which works well with our band, because we?re all perfectionists, too.? In a way, Arrivals and Departures illustrates an emotional growth for a band whose career is continually on the rise. "Success is reaching whatever new goals we set for ourselves, and that has been a constant progression," Koehler says. "We're always looking to attain new things by staying focused. We feel we're on a really good path because we're comfortable doing things that come natural to us."

We don't know if it's really the world's "first true indoor high-definition LED scoreboard" or not, but even if it's a close second, the quartet of new screens at the Verizon Center are getting pretty glowing early reviews. Mitsubishi Electric and ANC Sports Enterprises teamed up to install the four center-hung, 25-foot by 14-foot Diamond Vision systems at the home of the Washington Capitals, along with over 1,000 linear feet of LED fascia to display scrolling info. At only 1,280 by 736 pixels, none of these screens is going to make the most out of your favorite Blu-ray flick, but they do make the arena a perfect venue for your next LAN party.

A note found in trooper Eric Chrisman's apartment shortly after his death asked a simple but poignant question: "What legacy do you want to leave?"
That question was answered for him over the past week as thousands upon thousands of people honored his service to Kentucky, his faith in God and comforted his family following his tragic death.
"This young man was an incredibly dedicated Christian man," said Ninevah Christian Church Pastor Terry Cooper, who presided over Chrisman's services.
In less than one week Lawrenceburg has laid to rest two of its finest men. One was a veteran, who spent years serving his community and was well versed in all aspects of law enforcement. Another was much younger, but no less honorable. What he lacked in experience he made up for in commitment to his duty and maturity beyond his years.
Hundreds of mourners paid their respects to Kentucky State Trooper Eric Chrisman during visitation at Ninevah Christian Church Sunday afternoon.
Chrisman, who had just graduated from the Kentucky State Police Academy in January, died Tuesday when his cruiser collided with a tractor-trailer in Livingston County in western Kentucky. Chrisman was answering a call about a reckless driver when the accident occurred.
Chrisman, 23, was an Anderson County native and graduated from Christian Academy of Lawrenceburg in 2009.
Since Judge-Executive Orbrey Gritton took office in January, has been telling the Anderson County Fiscal Court that it needs to borrow $400,000 to close a budget deficit.
Last Tuesday, just before magistrates were scheduled to vote to borrow that amount money, Gritton recommended not doing it.
Gritton said afterward he did so because the lender, the Kentucky Association of Counties (KACo), changed the terms of the loan and that he was very happy about it.
The Lawrenceburg Fair and Horse Show has crowned its new queen.
Seven local beauties competed Monday evening for the title of Miss Lawrenceburg Fair and Horse Show 2015, but Jasmine Cox was deemed by the judges to be the fairest of them all.
Jenny Trent was trapped inside of her vehicle when an angel arrived to care for her.
That angel was Kenny Goodlett, 60, a beloved police officer, friend and family man who succumbed to cancer early last Friday morning.
Trent's story is one of hundreds, perhaps thousands of memories being shared as seemingly all of Anderson County mourns the loss of a public servant whose career included time with the ambulance service, sheriff's office and for the past six years, the Lawrenceburg Police Department.
Funeral services for Trooper Eric Chrisman have been announced by Richie and Peach Funeral Home in Lawrenceburg.
Visitation will be Sunday, June 28 from 3 p.m. – 9 p.m. and Monday, June 29 from 9 a.m. – 11 a.m. followed immediately after by a funeral service.
Visitation and funeral will be conducted at Ninevah Christian Church on Ninevah Road.
Pastors Terry Cooper and Will Cooper will officiate the service.
The Kentucky State Police have issued more details surrounding the fatal crash that took the life of local Trooper Eric Chrisman.
According to information provided by KSP, Chrisman was responding to a reckless driving compaint on US 62 Tuesday evening when he failed to negotiate a curve.
Chrisman's cruiser crossed into the eastbound lane when an oncoming tractor-trailer collided with his vehicle around 5:48 p.m. approxiamately two miles west of Grand Rivers.
The Anderson News has confirmed that local trooper Eric Chrisman was killed Tuesday evening in a vehicle crash near Kentucky Dam in western Kentucky.
Chrisman, of Lawrenceburg, was apparently on duty at the time of the wreck.
He is a son of Randy and Dawn Chrisman of Lawrenceburg.
TV station WPSD is reporting that the wreck occurred around 6:15 p.m. on U.S. 62 between the U.S. 641 Interchange at Kentucky Dam Village State Park in Marshall County and the Kentucky 451/Dover Road interchange at Lake City in Livingston County.
Funeral services for Lawrenceburg police officer Kenny Goodlett have been announced by Gash Memorial Chapel in Lawrenceburg.
Visitation will be Monday, June 22 from 3 to 8 p.m.; Tuesday, June 23 from 1 to 8 p.m.; and Wednesday, June 24 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., followed immediately after by a funeral service.
Visitation and the funeral service will be conducted at Sand Spring Baptist Church on Harrodsburg Road.
Internment will follow in Lawrenceburg Cemetery.

An integral unit for mounting complete wall-mounted sanitary appliances comprises a flat profiled support (1) and a sectional box structure (3) which are intended to be fixed to a wall (5) one below the other, the first (1) of which is intended to support both a sanitary appliance and corresponding accessories (13), which are received in the box structure (3). The support (1) comprises two lateral elements (6; 66) for its fixing to the wall (5), and a central channel-shaped body (4) for containing the water feed and waste pipes (15), with said lateral elements (6; 66) there being associated two rods (88) for fixing and supporting the corresponding appliance (2; 20; 200).
1. A set for mounting a sanitary appliance having fixtures to a wall, said sanitary appliance including support means for supporting said sanitary appliance on said wall, water feed and waste pipes extending from said wall, said set comprising a profiled support member having first and second laterally extending support elements adapted to be supported on said wall and adapted to be mounted externally to a wall covering, said first and second support elements each including a rod extending outwardly therefrom, said profiled support member having a single, centrally located, longitudinally extending channel-shaped body adapted to receive said water feed and waste pipes and to support said water feed pipes behind said sanitary appliance, an elongated sectional box structure adapted to be supported on said wall above said support member, said box structure having a main profiled element adapted to be supported on said wall, a second multipurpose element supported on said main profiled element and an internal complimentary element, said multipurpose element being adapted to mask said fixtures of said sanitary appliance, said profiled element and said complimentary element, said main profiled element including a longitudinal engagement seat for engaging said complimentary element, and longitudinal lips and a longitudinal channel for engaging said multipurpose element.
2. The set as claimed in claim 1, wherein each said rod includes an end portion having a series of circumferential grooves, said first and second support elements each including a respective opening for removably receiving one of said rods, and a rotatable disk supported respectively on said first and second support elements in said respective opening, each said rotatable disk including spiral ribbing adapted to releaseably engage said grooves on said respective rod inserted therein.
3. The set as claimed in claim 1, wherein said channel-shaped body includes a base wall section having at least one aperture through which said water feed and waste pipes extend.
4. The set as claimed in claim 1, wherein said channel-shaped body includes a plate coupled thereto having an outwardly extending bracket for supporting at least one of the fixtures of said sanitary appliance.
5. The set as claimed in claim 4, wherein said sanitary appliance is a water closet pan having a discharge pipe, said bracket including an aperture for passage of said discharge pipe.
6. The set as claimed in claim 1, wherein said profiled support member is positioned behind and masked by said sanitary appliance.
7. A set for mounting a sanitary appliance having fixtures to a wall, said sanitary appliance including support means for supporting said sanitary appliance on said wall, water feed and waste pipes extending from said wall, said set comprising a profiled support member having first and second laterally extending support elements adapted to be supported on said wall, said first and second support elements each including a rod extending outwardly therefrom, said profiled support member having a channel-shaped body adapted to receive said water feed and waste pipes and to support said water feed pipes behind said sanitary appliance, said channel-shaped body including a plate coupled thereto having an outwardly extending bracket for supporting at least one of the fixtures of said sanitary appliance, and said sanitary appliance being a water closet pan having a discharge pipe, said bracket including an aperture for passage of said discharge pipe, an elongated sectional box structure adapted to be supported on said wall above said support member, said box structure having a main profiled element adapted to be supported on said wall, a second multipurpose element supported on said main profiled element and an internal complimentary element, said multipurpose element being adapted to mask said fixtures of said sanitary appliance, said profiled element and said complimentary element.
This invention relates generally to a high-versatility set for the wall-mounting of wall-mounted sanitary appliances such as wash basins, bidets, water closet pans and cisterns therefor.
More particularly, the invention relates to a set for wall-mounting complete wall-mounted sanitary appliances, the set being already fitted with the respective accessories such as the taps, the cold and hot water feeding pipes, the waste pipes and the connectors for the discharge of the sanitary appliances.
The well known problem which arises when furnishing a bathroom with such wall-mounted sanitary appliances is to fix these latter on the finished walls, i.e. to which the wall covering has already been applied, and then to fit the sanitary appliances with their taps and other accessories.
A further problem is involved in fixing complete sanitary appliances to the wall with just a few simple operations in a relatively short time, and in a reliable and correct manner.
A further problem arises when associating with such sanitary appliances various complementary devices such as towel holders, paper holders, and shelves and compartments for storing objects, while masking the wall connections and water pipes, and optimizing the space and/or the distribution of said sanitary appliances, relative accessories, and complementary devices.
The FR-P-1586181 discloses a frame for fixing to a wall a wall-mounted wash-basin. Said frame has upper rests for supporting vertically the wash-basin, and on the front of the central seat there is an hole for blocking the water feed pipes. Furthermore, the frame also comprises a lower hole for the passage of the waste pipe of the wash-basin.
Said water feed and waste pipes are not masked, no means is provided for supporting the accessories of the wash-basin, nor the complementary devices, such as towel-holders and shelves and compartments for storing objects.
The know art, while facilitating the fixing of a sanitary appliance to a wall, presents some drawbacks, consisting of the necessity to fit, the appliance with its accessories such as the taps and of the necessity to mount the water pipes and accessories within the wall.
The general inventive idea to overcome the drawbacks above is to have a set defined in the accompanying claim 1, where the water pipes and accessories do not have to be mounted within the wall or on the appliance.
The set comprises a combination of a flat profiled support and a channel shaped sectional box structure of elongated form, which are intended to be fixed to the wall one under the other, the purpose of the former being to support both the wall-mounted sanitary appliances and its accessories, and the purpose of the latter being to mask a part of said accessories and to provide the fixing seats for complementary devices.
Specifically, said flat profiled support comprises two lateral elements arranged to be fixed to the wall, and with which there are associated two orthogonal fixing/support rods for the sanitary appliance, and a central channel-shaped body, the purpose of which is to receive the water feed and waste pipes to and from the sanitary appliance.
Suitable passage apertures should be provided in the base wall of said central channel-shaped body for said feed and waste pipes.
In addition said central channel-shaped body is arranged to support, for instance by means of a support member in the form of a bracket, accessories such as taps, mixer blocks, flushing cisterns or the like required for the operation and service of the sanitary appliance.
Said sectional box structure comprises a main profiled element to be fixed to the wall, a second multipurpose element to be fitted to the preceding to mask it, and an internal complementary element associated with it. Said second element may be composed of a series of different modules for masking some accessories for the underlying sanitary appliances, and for supporting complementary devices.
The characteristics and constructional merits of the invention will be apparent from the detailed description given hereinafter with reference to the accompanying figures, which illustrate some preferred embodiments thereof by way of example.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a wall-mounted wash basin supported by the invention.
FIG. 2 is a view similar to the preceding, in which the wash basin and some parts of the invention have been omitted for clarity.
FIG. 3 is a section on the line III--III of FIG. 2 to an enlarged scale, with the wash basin mounted.
FIG. 4a is a longitudinal section on an enlarged scale showing the wash basin fixing device before fixing has occurred.
FIG. 4b is a longitudinal section on an enlarged scale showing a rod in a wash basin before fixing has occurred.
FIG. 5 is a section on the line V--V of FIG. 4 to a reduced scale, after the wash basin has been fixed.
FIG. 6 is a section on the line VI--VI of FIG. 1 to an enlarged scale.
FIG. 7 is a perspective view showing a wall-mounted water closet pan and bidet supported by the invention.
FIG. 8 is a front view of the invention particularly for a wall-mounted bidet, this latter and its taps having been omitted for clarity.
FIG. 9 is a section on the line IX--IX of FIG. 8, in which the bidet and other elements are shown detached for clarity.
FIG. 10 is a section on the line X--X of FIG. 9 to an enlarged scale, with the bidet fixed to its own support.
FIG. 11 is perspective view of a support particularly for a wall mounted water closet pan.
Hereinafter, the corresponding elements of the various illustrated embodiments are indicated by the same reference numerals.
From said figures it can be seen that the invention comprises a flat profiled "C" shaped support 1 (see FIGS. 2, 3, 8, 9, 10, 11) for fixing to a wall and supporting a wall-mounted sanitary appliance in the form of a wash basin 2 (FIG. 1), or bidet 20 (FIG. 7) or water closet pan 200 (FIG. 7), and a sectional box structure 3 of enlogated form (see FIGS. 1, 3, 6, 7, 9).
The support 1 is received in a rear recess 22 (FIGS. 3, 4, 10) of the corresponding appliance 2, 20, 200, by which it is masked frontwards, downwards and laterally (see FIGS. 1, 7), while the upper masking of said support 1 and recess 22 is done by the box structure 3 (FIGS. 1, 3, 7, 9).
With particular reference to FIGS. 2 and 3 it can be seen that the flat profiled support 1 consists of a flat T-shaped metal structure.
Said flat T-shaped structure is substantially a vertical channel-shaped body, or vertical channel 4, the base wall of which is on the side on which the support 1 is fixed to the wall 5, and has two opposing upper lateral elements or arms 6, the cross-section of which is shaped as an asymmetric "omega" (see FIG. 2).
The two flanges of the elements 6 are coplanar and are contained in the plane in which the base wall of the central vertical channel 4 lies.
Between the two flanges of the elements 6 there is provided a channel 60 having its longitudinal opening facing the wall 5, the flange of greater width being positioned at the top (FIGS. 2, 3, 4). Through this latter there is provided a series of vertically slotted holes 61 (FIG. 2) for the passage of at least two screws 7 associated with usual expanding plugs, for fixing the vertical channel 4 and arms 6 to the wall 5.
In addition, near the ends of said two channels 60 of said two arms 6 there are provided two quadrangular apertures 62 for the passage/retention of two devices 8 for fixing to the arms 6 and supporting the wall-mounted wash/basin 2 (see FIGS. 2, 3, 4, 5).
This is done by respective rods 88 associated with this latter.
As can be seen in FIG. 4, the fixing device 8 comprises a disc member 80 traversed by a diametrical hole 81 of different cross-sections. To keep said hole 81 aligned with said rod 88, there are provided in said member 80 two recesses (see FIG. 5), one on each side of the front mouth of said hole 81. In this manner the member 80 assumes an external keyhole shape (FIG. 5), the narrow portion of which can pass through the aperture 62 (FIGS. 4, 5).
In the center of the top of the member 80 there is provided, and retained in a convenient manner, a rotary disc 82 which on its lower side comprises spiral ribbing 83, while in its upper side it is provided with a key seat 84.
Access to this latter is via the said recess 22 (visible to the right of FIG. 4) and a hole 85 provided through the upper wall of the channel 60.
With further reference to FIG. 4, each rod comprises a rear threaded portion 86, an intermediate cylindrical portion 87 of greater diameter, a circumferentially grooved portion 89 and a terminal stub 90 with a hemispherical end to facilitate the insertion of the rod 88 into the hole 81.
The grooves in the portion 89 are arranged to receive the ribs 83, the shoulder between the threaded portion 86 and cylindrical portion 87 acting as a stop for a fixing plate 91.
With this latter there cooperates a locking nut 92 which is screwed onto the portion 86, which is inserted, by way of an elastic sleeve (93) through hole in a rear downwardly extending wall 21 of the wash basin 2.
To fix this latter to the arms 6 of the support 1, the two rods 88 are inserted into the holes 81 (FIG. 4) until the portions 89 rest against the spiral ribs 83 which, when then rotated, engage said portions 89, to pull the appliance 2 towards the wall 5, and finally fix it in position. Before this operation, the support 1 is fitted out as follows.
From FIGS. 2 and 3 it can be seen that the base wall of the vertical channel 4 is provided lowerly with a large keyhole-shaped aperture 9, and a projecting plate 10 is fixed to the top of this base wall at 11. Between said aperture 9 and plate 10 there is a hole 12, the purpose of which will be clarified hereinafter.
The upper end part of the plate 10 is bent forward at a right angle and is then bent downwards through an acute angle, to form a bracket for the fixing of accessories. In the case illustrated, this is a complete mixer unit 13 (see FIG. 3) fixed at 14 (see FIG. 2) to the bracket 10, but two separate taps can be provided for the hot and cold water respectively. In addition, the mixer 13 can be of the electronic type instead of the single lever type as shown in FIG. 3, in which case the corresponding operating device will be housed in the vertical channel 4, as schematically indicated by 130 in FIG. 4. With further reference to FIGS. 2 and 3, from said mixer 13 or pair of taps there branch two pipes 15 for feeding hot water and cold water respectively, they being contained lowerly in the vertical channel 4. Said pipes 15 are connected to respective stop valves 16, to be connected in known manner to the general hot and cold water pipes encased in the wall 5, as indicated by 160 in FIG. 9, with the operating levers 161 for the valves 16 projecting beyond the vertical channel 4 through corresponding holes 162 provided through its side walls (FIG. 2).
It will also be noted that said valves 16 are positioned to correspond with the wide (upper) portion of the aperture 9, whereas the narrower (lower) portion thereof is provided for the passage of the mouth of a waste trap 17. In the case shown in FIG. 2 the trap 17 is situated behind the vertical channel 4, but can equally be positioned in front of it, as shown in FIGS. 8 and 9. The reference numeral 170 in FIG. 9 indicates the wall-encased waste pipe. From FIG. 8 it can be seen that the plate 10 is as wide as the vertical channel 4, and comprises convenient apertures 100 e 101 for passage of the pipes 15 and for the fixing of the mixer unit 13 (FIG. 9) respectively.
When the support 1 has been fitted out as described and fixed to the wall 5, and before or after the wall-mounted wash basin 2 has been fixed to the support 1, the box structure 3 can be mounted. This latter (see FIGS. 1, 2, 3 and 6) comprises a main element 30, a second multipurpose element 18, 19, 25 and a complementary element 31 contained within the first two.
The main element 30 consists of a metal section bar, for example of aluminium, to be fixed to the wall 5 by expanding plugs 300 (FIG. 2), and has a longitudinal engagement seat (FIG. 6) for said complementary element.
This latter consists of a channel for the passage of externally run electric cables (i.e. external to the wall 5).
Said main element 30 has a substantially C-shaped right section, the arms of which form the engagement and support seats for said sectional secondary element. This is well illustrated in FIGS. 3, 6 and 9, in which it can be seen that the main element 30 comprises two upwardly-inclined lower longitudinal lips 32 and an upper longitudinal channel 33, the former being for engaging said sectional secondary element (FIG. 6) and the latter being provided with devices for locking this latter.
Each individual device 34 comprises a block slidable in said channel 33, by which it is torsionally locked, and a threaded pin which is screwed into said block to project from said channel 33, where it comprises a key seat.
With particular reference to a wash basin 2, said sectional secondary element comprises a series of modules for forming various complementary devices, such as a masking cover 18 (FIGS. 1, 6) for the elements 30 and 31, an object compartment 19 (FIGS. 1, 6), a shelf 23 (FIG. 1), a towel holder 24 (FIG. 1), a cover 25 (FIG. 1) for the tap interiors 13 (FIG. 3) and other devices, such as a plate 26 (FIG. 1) for the electrical sockets and switches, and a liquid soap distributor 27 (FIG. 1), plus small wall-mounted articles (not shown) to be fitted to the main element 30 by a rear bracket 35 (FIG. 9) entirely similar to that used for mounting the cover 25.
From FIGS. 3 and 6 it can be seen that along the upper rear longitudinal edge of the main element 30 there is a full-length recess 28 which after insertion of a suitable gasket can receive the lower edge of a mirror 29 (FIGS. 1, 3).
As can be seen in FIG. 8, the support 1 for mounting a wall-mounted bidet 20 is substantially equal to that for the wash basin 21, and is identical to that for a wall-mounted water closet pan 200 (FIG. 11).
The support 1 comprises on the opposing sides of the vertical channel two parallel tubular members 66, each consisting of two channel sections inserted one in the other and welded together (see FIGS. 10, 11). As can be seen in FIG. 11 the front channel sections are shorter than the rear channel sections, to allow access to four holes 61 for passage of corresponding expanding plugs 7, for fixing the support 1 to the wall 5.
A rod 88 is fixed to the lower part of each tubular member 66. The relative fixing device 8 is received, and conveniently retained, in a trasverse housing 86 located to the side of the bowl of the sanitary appliance 20 or 200, and opening into the corresponding side wall (see FIGS. 7, 9, 10). Said housing 86 is masked by a cap 87 (FIGS. 7, 10).
The method of fixing the appliance 20 or 200 to the support 1 is apparent from the aforegoing.
Further details will be excluded as they are well illustrated, and described heretofore.
As can be seen in FIGS. 7, for said appliances 20 and 200, the modules of the second multipurpose element provide, in addition to some of the complementary devices described with reference to FIG. 1, specific complementary devices such as a towel holder 97, paper holder 98 and brush holder 99.
Finally, with reference to FIG. 11, the apertures 9 and 12 in the support 1 are provided respectively for receiving a connector 96 for connecting the discharge of the water closet pan 200 to the collection branch encased in the wall 5, and a connector 120 for connecting the pan 200 to the flow meter or to the flushing cistern, these also being encased in the wall.
In a further embodiment, a flushing cistern of the bottom-supported type can be associated with the support 1. This is done by the plate 10 (see FIG. 2) on which the cistern rests. In addition, in the bracket portion of the plate 10 there is provided an aperture (not shown) for passage of the cistern outlet pipe, which extends into the vertical channel 4 via a suitable connector. Said elements are not shown as they are of usual type. The flushing cistern of bottom-supported type is masked by said sectional box structure 3.
The merits and advantages of the invention and its considerable versatility of application are apparent from the aforegoing and from an examination of the accompanying figures.
Finally, it should be noted that the lateral fixin system used for the bidet 20 and water closet pan 200 (FIGS. 7, 10) can also be used for the wash basin 2, by directly fixing the rods 88 on the arms 6 and arranging the fixing devices 8 in respective lateral housing in the wash basin 2.

Residents say logging trucks on Jumbuk Road a safety risk
A group of residents from the Latrobe Valley are lobbying council and Hancock Victoria Plantations to consider the safety risks of logging trucks using Jumbuk Road.
- Print page
- Email this
- Permalink
The group say the road is too narrow for log trucks to drive safely with other traffic.
"If a vehicle meets an on coming log truck they can't really take evasive action, apart from going over the edge of the hill. That's our main concern,"
Jumbuk Road runs from Yinnar and winds along the Strzelecki Ranges past the Morwell National Park.
Bill Roberts from the group describes it as a service road with many bends.
"The sight distance is limited so you don't necessarily see the truck until they're about two seconds from you," he says.
Mr Roberts also says trucks need to drive wide around the corners on the road, therefore crossing over into the incoming lane.
Hancock Victoria Plantations originally applied to start running log trucks along the road in 2005, when it had approximately 1,600 hectares of timber plantations adjacent to Jumbuk Road.
In 2007 Latrobe City Council imposed load limits on trucks travelling along the road and conducted a safety audit of the road.
Following the release of the report from this audit in 2009, council voted to allow two way traffic of log trucks on the road citing an informal agreement between the former Shire of Morwell and APM Forests Pty Ltd in 1990, to include Jumbuk Road in 10 timber traffic routes in the area.
Latrobe City Council was approached for an interview regarding the decision but were unavailable for comment.
Brian Killday from the group, says they are hoping to reach a compromise with the Hancock Victoria Plantations and Latrobe City Council to provide escort vehicles for any trucks using the road.
Log trucks have used the road in the past under escort.

First State Bank Honored With #1 Ratings In Several Categories By Local Voters
First State Bank is pleased to announce the results of the 2012 "Best of St. Charles County" poll, in which First State Bank took top honors in several categories: BEST LENDER, BEST MORTGAGE COMPANY, and BEST FINANCIAL PLANNERS.
This is the third year in a row that First State Bank has been voted "Best Lender" and "Best Mortgage Company," and the second year to be voted "Best Financial Planners" by local voters in the poll.
The results of the Suburban Journals' "Best of St. Charles County" readers' poll are calculated from votes by local residents. Votes are submitted through both an online and paper ballot each fall.
Local Team, Congressman Luetkemeyer Join Together To Help Disabled Veteran Purchase the Perfect Home
Missouri disabled veteran Dillon Raube and his wife, Taylor, signed final papers Wednesday to complete a year-long process of purchasing their perfect family home in Linn Creek, Mo, surrounded by all those who helped make the loan possible – a local Realtor team, their mortgage banker and Congressman Blaine Luetkemeyer himself.
For U.S. Navy veteran Dillon Raube and his young family, the process of finding the perfect home and obtaining financing had been an arduous one. After being medically discharged from the Navy with a 100% service-connected disability and recovering from multiple surgeries, Dillon and his wife decided to move to Missouri to be closer to Raube's own family.
The Raubes found the perfect home in Linn Creek, Mo. The property provided all the necessary elements to accommodate Dillon's needs – a single-story home with a level lot and paved road, and an outbuilding and attached apartment, an ideal living space for Dillon's mother, who could reside close enough to assist him with his day-to-day tasks.
Three days before their scheduled closing date, the Raubes were notified that the loan was being denied on the basis of the property being "too unique." The Raubes were shocked and confused. That's when they decided, with the help of their real estate agent, Justin Farrell of John Farrell Real Estate Company, to reach out to their local Congressman's office. So Raube wrote a letter to Congressman Blaine Luetkemeyer to ask for assistance.
"We are struggling to understand why [the loan] was denied…My family and I have worked diligently for the past year for this particular house," said Raube in his letter to Congressman Luetkemeyer. "This property is very special to our family. We would appreciate any assistance you can provide."
Raube's impassioned letter, sent to Luetkemeyer's office on September 26, two days before the original scheduled closing date, set into motion a series of actions by local professionals determined to secure a home for this brave veteran and his family. Congressman Luetkemeyer and his caseworker, Lori Boyken, responded immediately and began to work with the VA on an inquiry into the loan and appraisal.
Shortly after, the Raube's agent, Justin Farrell, and fellow agent Lynn Farrell approached local mortgage lender Michael Lasson of First State Bank Mortgage to see if he could work with the Raubes on their loan. Lasson and his wife, Michelle, a Loan Specialist with First State Bank Mortgage, immediately went to work looking at the loan and property to see if the loan could be approved.
Within three weeks of writing the letter, Dillon and Taylor Raube closed on their loan to become proud homeowners.
"We couldn't have closed this loan without the support of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines Mortgage Partnership Finance® program," said Michael Lasson of First State Bank Mortgage. "We are incredibly pleased to assist one of our disabled veterans," said Dick Swanson, president and CEO, FHLB Des Moines. "As a cooperative of community lenders, we are able to create solutions like the Mortgage Partnership Finance program to assist members including First State Bank Mortgage so they can strengthen their communities."
"There were many people who were instrumental in making the American Dream of home ownership happen for the Raubes," commented agent Lynn Farrell. "Congressman Luetkemeyer and his caseworker, Lori Boyken, were key figures in getting the appraisal approved. They went above and beyond in their efforts. Michael and Michelle Lasson and First State Bank did a fantastic professional job of making this all work for the Raubes. And Justin [Farrell] has been working with them through all the challenges and never gave up. This is truly an American success story for a very deserving veteran."

Gallery: Foshan Pearl: China's Energy Efficient Gymnasium Completed
Although it seems like the media often regards China as the biggest greenwasher in the world, it is hard to dispute sustainable building when pure architectural facts and innovations are involved. The Foshan Pearl Gymnasium, China's newest addition to its green array, is an excellent illustration of this point. Designed by Japan-based firm Mitsuru Man Senda and Environment Design Institute in direct response to the sub-tropical climate of the surrounding area, the vast athletic center examines the relationship between internal and external spaces and provides further support for China's environmentally responsible attitude towards green building and design.

Another example of architects that don't play sports designing useless buildings. There is no way that any sporting event, even a pickup basketball game, will be played during the day in this facility. The glare from the natural light will see to that.
Maybe China can just convert it to an inmate facility making more useless junk for Americans to buy.
