A. N. LUKENS HELI CAL SPRING Filed Oct. 18, 1922 A TTORNE Y5 Patented Jan. 13, 1925.
KPH-Q PATfEN ALLAN N. LUKENS, 'OFELIZABETH, NEW JERSEY.
Application filedjQctober 18,1922. .Serial No. 595,321.
To all whom it may concern:
;Be it known that I, ALAN N. :LUKENS, a citizen of .the United States of .America, residing at Elizabeth, in the county of Union and .State'of New Jersey,hav.e invent-ed certain new and useful Improvein-ents-in .Helical Springs, of which the .fol-
lowing is a specification.
.inventionis to providefa compression-spring affording greater strength, in a1spr1n-gof given over-all diameter, lengthand number of coils, thanis possibleto secure in=agspring ofconventional type, while at thesame time affording equal or -greater-clearance between .the coils toobtain suitablerange and ease'of action. Other advantages Wlll be hereinafter pointed out, or are disclosed in the accompanying drawings, in which Fig. 1 isan axialsection through ahelical pring in which my invention isembodied inone form;
Fig. 2 is aplan view thereof;
Fig. 3 is an axial section showing the spring compressed to solid;
Fig. 4*. is.a,partial development.of therod from which zthe spring is .made;
Fig. 5 visa cross section thereof; and
Figs. 6,7 and 8 are views corresponding to Figs. 1, 2 and '3, but of a conventional spring.
,lVhile the present spring is by no means limited in its utility to service as a draft or supporting spring for railway cars, it has a particular utility in this application by reason of its great strength .withinlimited dimensions.
The developments of modern railway stock have been along the lines of increasing weight and burden, without a corresponding increase in the space to be occupied by springs. The amount of work to be done by springs has ,grown in excess of the power of any conventional spring that an be mounted in the available restricted space. Frequent spring failures, great damage to rolling stock, delays in transportation, and the high costs incident thereto, have resulted.
The present invention provides a helical spring which can be mounted in the avail able space, and has the power to do the work required, while it can be manufactured and marketed at low cost.
It is well known to those familiar with jtheart, that the number of turns or convolutions that can be used in a helical spring is regulated by the allowable solid length divided by-the thickness of the bar or wire.
The loads imposed upon the springs in modernirailway equipment areso heavy that bars or wire of large size must be used to support the load; but the possible number of turns :of such large bars, when they are ofconventionalcircular section, is insuffi- ,c1entt-o provide proper resiliency with suitable range and easeof action. Moreover,
if-zsuch heavy bars of conventional circular section are employed, the coils approach each other so closely that, in service, they are repeatedly driven solid and the blows so -delivered result inn-resetting of the particles of-metal. in the bar-orspring, whichcauses ra -great detrimentito the spring, and a decided loss in its efficiency. .Bars of square or rectangular cross sectioinafter being coiled into helicalsprings, present broad, flatbearings coil-to-coil, and are not subject to this defect when driven solid, but have well known disadvantages which ,preclude their use. It IS .wellknown that inbars of circular cross section, when coiled into helical springs, the stress developed under load is lulllfOl'll'l at all points in the periphery, while in sections of square or rectangular shape even open to question.
Again, it is common practice in the manufacture of helical springs-to previously taper the cndsof the barsin order to produce end hearings in planes at right angles to the axis of the helix. A round bar when so tapered in the usual manner produces an end bearing face which decrea es in width toward the heel of the taper, until it runs out to zero. Such springs, when mounted for use under heavy loads, soon score and cut into the spring seats at the narrow part of the end bearing face, destroying the spring-seatsand the stability of the springs thereon, often times to such an extent'that unlooked for and complicated stresses are developed and the .life and efficiency of the equipment thereby curtailed.
By the present invention I have provided a spring which retains, to as great an extent as possible, the desirable features of the circular section, permits the use of a larger bar in a given solid length, provides a broad surface of contact coil-to-coil when the springs are driven solid, and a sufficiently wide end bearing near the'heel of the taper to prevent injury to the spring seat.
In the form shown, the spring developed takes the form of a bar which, in cross section (Fig. 5) has two opposite peripheral arcs and 21 of equal span connected by straight lines 22 and 23 of equal length. In the coiled spring, the straight faces 22 and 23 lie in planes at right angles to the axis of the helix in an axial section through the spring. In preferred form, the centers of curvature 2a of the arcuate faces 20 and 21 are in register. In other words, these curved faces form opposite arcs of a circle, while the straight faces 22 and 23 form opposite chords of equal length parallel to the diameter bi-secting the arcs. Each are 20, 21 is of approximately 120 degrees span, and each of the chords is of approximately ('30 degrees span. Or, putting it in another way, each of the chords 22 and 23 has a length substantially corresponding to the radius 25 of the arcs. Or, again, the length of the diameter bi-secting the chords is substantially 85% of the length of the diameter bi-secting the arcs.
The end bearing face 26 of the spring is formed by tapering the end of the bar from each flat face and toward the plane bi secting the curved faces, while the latter merge into flats as the taper progresses toward the end of the bar. The bearing thus afforded at the end of the bar is substantially equal to its greatest diameter, while at its narrowest point it has the full width of the fiat faces 22, 23.
By this construction of the spring the latter may be made from a materially heavier and thus stronger bar than it is possible to employ in the manufacture of the spring 27 of conventional circular bar type shown in Figs. 6, 7 and 8, having the same overall dimensions and a like play bet-ween the coils to afford suitable range and ease of action. It will be noted that the axial length of the two springs is substantially identical both in the open position (Figs. 1 and 6), and when the coils are driven solid under load (Figs. 3 and 8). It will be further noted that the bearing face 28 of the conventional spring has the ()bjECflOllfll'JlQ narrow heel 29 above referred to. which is destructive to the spring seat as distinguished from the broad heel 30 possessed by the present construction. A spring possessing markedly greater strength,
as well as causing less wear on the bearing seats is thus afforded.
Vhile the construction shown presents great advantages over prior constructions, the invention is not limited to the exact configurations shown, but is capable of embodiment in other forms without materially departing from what I claim as my invention. Y
I claim 1. A helical spring comprising a coiled bar which, when produced and in cross section, is bounded by two opposite arcs of substantially equal extent struck from an" approximately common center, and two substantially equal and parallel straight lines extending between the ends of the arcs, the flat faces of the bar lying substantially at right angles to the axis of the helix on an axial section through the spring.
2. A helical spring comprising a coiled bar which, when produced and in cross section, is bounded by two opposite arcs, each of approximately 120 degrees extent and struck from an approximately common center, and two substantially equal and parallel straight lines extending between the ends of the arcs, the fiat faces of the bar lying substantially at right angles to the axis of the helix on an axial section through the spring.
3. A helical .spring comprising a coiled bar having a pair of arcs formingapproximately two thirds of its cross sectional boundary, and a pair of opposite, substantially parallel straight lines between said arcs, the axial diameter of the bar between 7 said straight faces being less than the axial diameter between the arcs, and the straight faces of the bar lying substantially at right angles to the axis of the-helix in an axial. section through the spring 4. A helical spring comprising a coiled bar which, when produced and in cross section, is bounded by two opposite arcs of substantially equal extent struck from an approximately common center, and two substantially equal and parallel straight lines extending between the ends of the arcs, the flat faces of the bar lyingfsubstantially at right angles to the axis of the helix on an axial section through the spring, the ends of the bar being tapered to form end bearings for the spring, and the taper extending from the flat faces of the bar toward a plane bi-secting the arcuate faces.
In testnnony whereof I have signed my name to this specification.

Report: iPhone 6 may include barometer, air pressure sensors
Apple's iPhone 6 could contain a barometer and air pressure sensors, according to 9to5Mac. The report claims that new references within Xcode 6 and iOS 8 are dedicated to altitude tracking and will require new Apple hardware. It's possible that altitude tracking abilities might be incorporated in the new iPads and iWatch, as well. Barometer hardware could track altitude more quickly and accurately than current altitude-measuring apps that work based on GPS and motion chips. References to ambient pressure tracking were also found within iOS 8, meaning that other air pressure sensors within new devices could alert users to changes in the weather.

Be a patriot - use mass transit!
The MTA operates a vast machine to transport millions of New Yorkers in relative safety every day. Nevertheless, vast sections of this huge organization are seen by some as totally mismanaged, perhaps best symbolized by this empty building, 370 Jay Street, in downtown Brooklyn, which has been squatting in total squalor for decades over one of the borough's most important subway stations, Jay Street/Borough Hall, where the mighty A and F trains meet. Note "sharp-fanged Pacman" MTA logo. Letter from George

Paul Gawkowski,
Transport Planner,
to Speak
Dear Friends of Auto-Free New York:
Stay tuned for our December meeting's topic, as we prepare for MTA planner Paul Gawkowski who will be our guest speaker. In the meantime, we urge you to make the trip to the Conde Nast building lobby, located at Four Times Square (7th Avenue and 43rd Street) in Manhattan, to view the four winners of a global digital design competition for vision42, fostered by the Institute for Rational Urban Mobility (IRUM), the parent agency for Auto-Free New York. This remarkable exhibit will be on display in the lobby through January 5, 2015, and the hours are Monday through Friday, 8AM - 7PM daily. [The opening reception was Tuesday, November 18.]
George Haikalis, Chair
P.S. THE LATE JOHN ROZANKOWSKI: On a sad note: a longtime champion for better public transit, John Rozankowski, who was a guest speaker at one of our Auto-Free NY meetings a few years ago, passed away late in September. Details about John can be found at:
http://www.johnjfox.com/book-of-memories/1955326/Rozankowski-John/service-details.php. We will miss him.
LETTER IN CRAIN'S NEW YORK: On another note, a letter to the editor of mine was published in the Sept. 28 Crains New York, a business newsletter, in which I suggested how LaGuardia Airport could be closed and the land converted to affordable housing. The letter can be found by searching the Crain's New York website or opening this link: Goodbye LGA, Hello Quieter Skies and Affordable Housing.
ROXANNE'S FORTHCOMING BOOK: Also upcoming sometime this fall will be the publication of vision42 principal Roxanne Warren's new book, "Rail and the City: Shrinking Our Carbon Footprint While Reimagining Urban Space" (MIT Press).
GEORGE IN TV DEBATE, NOW ON YOUTUBE: I invite you to watch on youtube a lively TV panel debate I was on, on the Brian Lehrer cable TV show (April 2, 2014). The debate, "Rail or Trail (or both) for the disused Rockaway Beach Line in central Queens" featured myself, as president of IRUM, arguing for restoration of the rail right-of-way, and Travis Terry, of the Friends of Queensway, arguing to convert it into a linear park. The youtube address:
(or use youtube's search function). Note: skip forward around 40 minutes into Lehrer's show, when the debate portion, around 15 minutes long, begins. Enjoy!!
NYC SMOG ALERT UPDATES:Despite propaganda about how clean cars are these days, NYC's air quality continues to be the worst on the East Coast -- practically every day here is an Air Quality Alert Day, meaning you shouldn't breath when outdoors. For updates, call the state Dept of Environmental Conservation at 1-800 535-1345.
Regional Rail Group Update: Our Regional Rail Working Group also meets monthly. This group showcases the efforts of individuals from a variety of transit advocacy groups to awaken our region's sleeping giant, its commuter rail system. Note that because of the damage from Hurricane Sandy done to Hoboken in fall 2012, we cannot hold our regular monthly meetings at the Hoboken City Hall.) Until further notice, we urge those who can make it to attend our regular Auto-Free NY/vision42 working group meetings. Information on a restored meeting time and place will be announced as soon as possible.

Another SUV smashed by its reckless driver (Canal Street, Feb 2011): The bulk of these top-heavy, inadequately braked "bloatmobiles" makes their driver feel invulnerable, and so they drive worse, and crash more. Big business, attuned to wasteful and overdesigned products in principle, embraced SUVs as prime subjects beginning in the mid-90s, for one of the most intensive marketing and indoctrination campaigns in US car company history. But inexorably, American price supports for lower cost gasoline are going to end, while the realities of declining world oil production, and increasing political, military and climate chaos will grow more stark. Once the true costs of our national gasoline orgy start being paid by US motorists themselves rather than everyone else, these gas guzzling giants will quickly end up more worthless junk - and we may just get the quality public transportation -- and the sustainable economy -- we deserve.

An improved method of reconstituting meat from trims of fish, poultry, pork or beef comprises the steps of freezing the trims, configuring the frozen trims and compressing the frozen trims with an external force to form purge on the outer surface thereof. The method does not require the trims to be defrosted and the use of any artificial binding agent for holding the reconstituted meat together, even during normal cooking conditions.
1. A method of reconstituting a piece of meat product from a plurality of meat trims, comprising the steps of:
a. freezing said plurality of trims to rupture meat cells;
b. configuring said frozen trims to form a preselected shape; and
c. compressing said configured trims with an external force at a temperature below the freezing point of said frozen trims under a preselected pressure for a preselected period so as to cause at least 3% purge by weight to be formed on the outer surfaces of said frozen trims for holding said frozen trims together.
2. The method of claim 1, wherein said trims are frozen in a cooled brine containing at least about 0.005% by weight of a cruciferous oil.
3. The method of claim 2, wherein said cooled brine contains from about 0.005% to about 0.018% by weight of a cruciferous oil.
4. The method of claim 2, wherein said cruciferous oil is rapeseed oil.
5. The method of claim 2, wherein the temperature of said cooled brine is between about −22� and −46� F.
6. The method of claim 2, wherein the temperature of said cooled brine is between about −37� and −41� F.
7. The method of claim 1, wherein said external force is applied with a press.
8. The method of claim 1, wherein said frozen trims are compressed at a temperature between about 0� and 15� F.
9. The method of claim 1, wherein said frozen trims are compressed under a pressure between about 200 and 1,500 psi.
10. The method of claim 1, wherein said frozen trims are compressed for a period between about 6 and 60 seconds.
11. The method of claim 1, further comprising the steps of searing an outside surface of said compressed trims.
12. The method of claim 1, further comprising the steps of char-marking said compressed trims.
13. The method of claim 1, further comprising the step of applying a binding agent to outside surfaces of said frozen trims prior to the step of configuring said frozen trims.
14. The method of claim 13, wherein said binding agent is calcium chloride.
15. The method of claim 13, wherein said binding agent is sodium chloride.
16. The method of claim 13, wherein said binding agent is ground dehydrated bone.
17. The method of claim 1, further comprising the step of pasteurizing the compressed trims by irradiating said compressed trims with one of X-ray and electron beam.
18. A method of reconstituting a piece of meat product from a plurality of meat trims, comprising the steps of:
a. freezing said plurality of trims to rupture meat cells;
b. configuring said frozen trims to form a preselected shape; and
c. compressing said configured trims in a press at a temperature between about 0� and 15� F. under a pressure between about 200 and about 1,500 psi for a period between about 6 and 60 seconds so as to cause at least 3% purge by weight to be formed on the outer surfaces of said frozen trims for holding said frozen trims together.
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to an improved method of reconstituting meat from trims of fish, poultry, pork, veal or the like. In particular, the present method enables meat to be reconstituted while still in a frozen state.
2. Description of the Related Art
Various methods have been devised to reconstitute meat into logs with various cross-sectional shapes, such as round or square, from trims or scrap pieces of beef, veal, pork, fish, poultry or the like for maximizing recovery of meat products therefrom. One known method of reconstituting meat makes use of binding agents for holding pieces of trims together so that the reconstituted meat does not fall apart during cooking. The known method includes the steps of coating fresh, i.e. not previously frozen, trims with a commercially available binding agent or binder, packing the trims in a mold, then allowing the binding agent to cure at about 35� F. for one hour. An example of a commercially available binder contains 0.5% trans-glutaminase, 2.5% sodium polyphosphate, 2.5% anhydrous sodium pyrophosphate, 2.0% sillicon dioxide, and 92.5% casein. Another example of a binding agent contains 75.0% protein (from milk and/or egg) and 25.0% calcium chloride and/or sodium chloride.
However, the conventional binding agents added to the reconstituted meat are �chemicals� that many consumers deem undesirable for consumption. In addition, the binding agent sometimes gives the reconstitute meat an �unnatural� resiliency or flavor. Thus, adding binding agents decreases the marketability of the reconstituted meat.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,807,598 ('598 patent) discloses methods of reconstituting meat absent conventional binding agents. The patent teaches the uses of the �purge�, i.e. the natural fluid released from ruptured cells of a previously frozen animal tissue when defrosted, which typically collects on the outer surface of the defrosted meat, to substitute for the conventional binding agent. The �purge� contains an adequate amount of cellular protein, which functions as a �glue� by, for example, becoming denatured and cross-linked and gelatinous and forms an adhesive or cohesive bond between adjoining trims such that the meat trims are joined, adhered or otherwise held together. Through the methods described in the '598 patent, the reconstituted meat stays together even under cooking conditions.
While the methods disclosed in the '598 patent make the use of conventional binding agents unnecessary, they require the meat trims to be first frozen and then defrosted to produce an adequate amount of �purge�. Once the meat trims are defrosted, they have to be frozen again for storage.
The disadvantages of the methods taught by the '598 patent are many-fold. First, the �purge� is produced through a freeze-defrost cycle, that is likely to cause damage to a large number of cells, thereby affecting the qualities of the meat such as, for example, appearance, taste, resiliency and aroma. Second, during the freeze-defrost cycle, temperature must be raised above the freezing point of the �purge� to produce the �purge�. Since the higher the temperature is, the more bacteria will grow, raising temperature thus reduces freshness or tastiness of the meat. Third, it takes a relatively long time for the frozen meat to be defrosted. Fourth, the additional freezing step after defrosting not only causes further degradation of the meat, but also requires extra time and labor during manufacturing thereby increasing production cost.
Thus, it is desirable to reconstitute meat products through a simple and convenient process that minimizes the damage of the cells and preserves the freshness of the meat products.
Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a method for reconstituting meat from trims or scrap pieces of fish, poultry, beef or pork or the like such that the reconstituted meat is closely similar to a whole-meat product in terms of its qualities such as appearance, taste, resiliency and aroma.
Another object of the invention is to provide a method of reconstituting meat which does not require the use of any binder or binding agent, and yet the reconstituted meat does not fall apart during cooking. In particular, the method does not require the meat trims to be defrosted during the meat reconstituting process.
An embodiment of the method of reconstituting meat in accordance with the present invention includes the steps of:
a. freezing the trims;
b. configuring the frozen trims to form a preselected shape; and
c. compressing the frozen trims at a temperature below the freezing point under a preselected pressure for a preselected period.
The various features of novelty which characterize the invention are pointed out with particularity in the claims annexed to and forming a part of the disclosure.
As used herein the term �meat� is intended to include fish, shell-fish, poultry, beef, veal, pork including ham, various game meats such as venision, liver meat and any other type of animal product commonly referred to as meat or fish.
As used herein, the term �trims� is intended to include not only pieces of meat trimmed from a larger piece, but also to include other small pieces such as scraped, ground, flaked meat or the like.
As used herein, the term �reconstituted meat product� is a product comprising a plurality of small pieces or bits of meat, i.e. trims as above defined, which are held together to form a larger product such as, for example, a portion size product.
As used herein, the term �freezing point� means a freezing point at an atmospheric pressure.
As disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,807,598, the reconstitution of meat trims can be accomplished using the �purge� produced by a freeze-defrost cycle as a natural binder to hold the meat trims together. In contrast, the present meat reconstituting process does not require such freeze-defrost cycle to produce the �purge�. Rather, the �purge� is produced by applying external forces to the frozen trims. Since the freezing point of the �purge� decreases as the pressure increases, the �purge� can be produced at a temperature below the freezing point of the trims when the pressure is increased, i.e., the step in the '598 patent of defrosting the trims for producing the �purge� can be eliminated by exerting a pressure on the frozen trims. The production of the �purge� is thus accomplished by raising pressure rather than by raising temperature.
In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the first step of preparing a piece of reconstituted meat from the trims of fish, poultry, beef, pork or the like is to freeze the trims of such products, if they are not yet frozen, to about −15� F., for example. This produces a minimal but yet adequate amount of ruptured meat cells to produce sufficient purge to bind the trims. While this initial freezing step may be accomplished by means of a blast freezer or any other conventional freezer, preferably, the trims are frozen using the �cooled-brine methods� (TruFresh�) disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,601,909; 4,654,217; 4,657,768; 4,689,963; 4,743,343; 4,840,034; 4,840,035 and 5,001,047, the contents of which patents are incorporated herein by reference in their entireties. As described therein, these cooled-brine methods, unlike conventional freezing methods, advantageously maintain the freshness or tastiness of the meat by maintaining maximum cellular integrity of the meat tissue and minimizing the number of ruptured cells during the freezing process.
Although brine solutions of various compositions, as disclosed in the aforementioned cooled-brine method patents may be used, at least about 0.005% by weight of cruciferous oil is preferably included in the brine. Preferably, about 0.005% to 0.018% by weight of cruciferous oil such as rapeseed oil should be used. Alternatively, the amount of cruciferous oil may be selected such that a maximum amount of the oil is dissolved in the brine. Presently preferred brine composition include, by weight, bout 43.18% water, about 44.06% propylene glycol, about 12.75% calcium chloride, and about 0.01% rapesed oil. The temperature of the brine should be between about −22� and −46� F., and preferably between about −37� and −41� F.
After the initial cell rupturing step such as by freezing, the frozen meat trims are pressed by an external force to produce the requisite amount of purge to bind these trims together. The amount of purge produced should be at least about 3% by weight, but most preferably about 4-6% by weight so as to minimize the degradation to the meat.
While any method and device for reconstituting meat trims by external forces are applicable for the intended purpose, a commercially available pressing machine, such as, for example, Ross Presses including Ross Uniform 914 Press, manufactured by Ross Industries, Inc, Midland, Va., and devices disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,756,231 to Ross, are preferred. The properties and methods of operation of these machines are described in the manufacturer brochures or the U.S. Pat. No. 3,756,231, the contents of which are herein incorporated by references in their entireties. As disclosed in the manufacturer brochures, Ross Presses are operated under dwell-timing and pressure control circuitry, which meters the amount of time the food product is under pressure. The operator turns the dial control to the predetermined setting (0-100), based upon the mold size.
In operation, the frozen meat trims are removed from the brine as above described and stored at a temperature between about 0 to 15� F. The Ross Press machine is set at a preselected dwell time such as 20 seconds and a preselected pressure such as 1000 psi. Then a desired amount of frozen meat trims to be formed into reconstituted meats are placed in the machine hopper and the machine is turned on. Since the freezing point of the trims decreases as the pressure increases, the trims melt causing the formation of the �purge�, under the preselected pressure, without raising temperature. The frozen meat trims are thus bound together by the �purge� produced under the preselected pressure. After the preselected dwell period, the pressure on the formed meat log is removed, the freezing point of the trims and the �purge� increases and the trims and purge accordingly freeze without lowering the temperature. It will be obvious from the above description that the temperature of the trims during storage must be below the freezing point of the trims and �purge� at atmospheric pressure and above the freezing point of the trims and �purge� at the elevated pressures of the press machine.
It is noted that the duration, pressure and temperature of this compress-forming step, which can be readily adjusted, depend on the size, weight, surface area and/or desired density of the reconstituted meat. Such duration, pressure and temperature should be chosen so as to maintain the integrity of the meat and minimize degradation of the cells while producing sufficient amount of �purge�. It is preferred that the frozen meat trims are pressed at temperatures below the freezing point of the trims and �purge�, for example, about 0-15� F., under a pressure of, preferably about 200 to 1500 psi for a period of time, preferably about 6-60 seconds.
Before this compressing step, if desired (although optional in view of the teachings of the present invention), the trims may be treated by placing on the outside surfaces a minimal amount of a binding agent (e.g. about 1% by weight) such as, for example, calcium chloride, sodium chloride, cell adhesive molecules such as fibronnectin or collegen or the like, and/or ground dehydrated bone of the meat being processed, to further enhance the cohesive bonds between adjoining trims. These trims, either treated or untreated, may then be configured to form a desired or preselected size and shape by, for example, placing or arranging the trims inside at least a portion of a mold or any structure which defines, at least in part, the shape of the reconstituted meat. The mold may be in the shape of, for example, a fish fillet, in the case where the reconstituted meat comprises trims of a salmon or other fish or shaped like a steak or hamburger patty if the meat is beef. In the case of tuna trims, the mold may resemble a tuna steak.
When Ross Presses are used in the compress-forming step, standard molds or custom made molds provided by the manufacturer of Ross Presses may be used.
After the compress-forming step and removal of the reconstituted meat log from the machine, the reconstituted meat products are preferably placed at a temperature between about 0 to 15� F. for storage.
The reconstituted meat may be cut into portions having the desired size and weight at a temperature, for example, below 10� F., for users such as restaurateurs. The reconstituted meat may be cut using any suitable cutting machines such as, for example, Bandsaw made by AEW or Butcherboy by Butcherboy.
To add flavor, to decontaminate the surfaces of the portion and/or to increase the bodily integrity of the reconstituted meat, the portions (preferably while still frozen) may be seared over flame or in a broiler heated to about 600 to 800� F., for about 2.0 to 3.0 seconds, depending on the shape and size of the portions. It is believed that the searing step causes the tissue fibers at the surface of each portion to interlink thereby enhancing the surface strength of the portions. Optionally, these portions may also be seared through deep-frying, e.g., immersed in boiling oil (preferably, vegetable oil such as sesame oil), for a period of about 10 to 60 seconds. Alternatively or in addition thereto, the portions may be charmarked by passing under charring rings having a temperature of about 1,200 to 1,500� F. for about 2.0 to 3.5 seconds, whereby the charring rings rollingly contact the reconstituted meat surface to mark them as if they have char-grilled. The char-marking operation causes the tissue fibers in contact with the rings to desiccate through liquefaction or liquification of the component carbohydrates and/or proteins of the tissue fibers. It is believed that the desiccated tissue fibers and therefore more able to maintain the structural integrity of the reconstituted meat. By charmarking the portions in a crisscross manner, the desiccated tissue fibers act as a reinforcing �net� for the reconstituted meat. Preferably, after any of these searing and/or charmarking operations, the portions is immediately cooled for a period of between about 1.0 and 5.0 minutes to a surface temperature of between about 30 and 50� F. The portions are then placed in gas-impermeable (or vacuum-sealable) packages, e.g. bags, which are then vacuum sealed.
It is noted that these searing and/or char-marking operations are for treating only the outside surfaces of the portions and are not intended to cook through the portions.
Since the portions and their component trims may have collected bacteria during the reconstitution process, they should be pasteruized or sterilized. The pasteurization process may be performed either before or after the portions are placed in vacuum sealable packages. Pasteurization is preferably performed by irradiation such as, for example, by an electronic pasteurization device capable of sending X-ray, γ-ray or E-beam (electron beam) through the thickness of each portion so as to ensure the destruction of all (or a substantial amount of) bacteria, including those residing at the cohesive bonds between the adjoining trims. The packaged portions may thereafter be stored in a conventional freezer environment at about −15��5� F. for shipment to end-users such as, for example, restaurants, caterers, retail establishments or retail consumers. Thereafter, the end-users may prepare or cook the reconstituted meat in any number of ways, e.g., boil in a bag, microwave in a bag, broil over direct flame bike or pan fry (of course, without the bag).
It has been found that the reconstituted meat made in accordance with the present invention does not fall apart during normal cooking conditions. Moreover, the reconstituted meat is as tasty as whole meat and has qualities that are essentially indistinguishable from those of whole meat.
While it is presently contemplated to form the reconstituted meat product form trims, all of which are of the same type of meat, e.g. beef, pork, salmon or tuna, it is within the contemplation of this invention to form reconstituted meat products from a blend of meats, i.e., from trims from different meats such as, for example, beef and pork, and unless otherwise expressly limited, the trims should be construed to include such blends.
The invention is not limited by the embodiments described above which are presented as examples only but can be modified in various ways within the scope of protection defined by the appended patent claims.

Details on Industry Insight.
Canadian third party logistics company NRI Distribution Inc. and Southern California based Westlife Distribution LLC, owner of snow outerwear brand 686, are creating a strategic partnership to provide third party logistics and other backend services in the U.S.
The new entity, called NRI USA LLC, is looking to settle in the South Bay in a building with an existing free trade zone license, which would allow them to help young brands enter the Canadian market more efficiently and cost effectively. The company will be operational by Nov. 1 and ready to accept spring goods for Spring 2012.
(Just to be clear the two companies are not merging. Rather, they are forming a separate, new company for this project but are keeping their other businesses intact.)
Peter McKenna, President of NRI Distribution in Canada.
NRI provides third party logistic services in Canada for several large brands, including Quiksilver, Volcom, C1rca, 686, DC, Lib Tech and GNU, Dakine, Oakley, Electric and many others.
While NRI USA expects to have some high volume anchor clients, the goal is not to turn into a huge third party logistical machine, NRI President and Co-Owner Peter McKenna said. Instead, the company believes it can help the under $30 million crowd save on infrastructure costs and offer additional backend services if needed such as turnkey ecommerce platforms and other help that Westlife excels at.
Many of the brands NRI works with in Canada were much smaller when NRI first started working with them, Peter said, so the company has experience helping young brands along.
He said NRI and Westlife have been talking about the idea for a while now, and the time seemed right. Commercial buildings are plentiful, and there are lots of talented people available to hire.
In addition, in prior down cycles, after the dust settles new brands tend to form, and those brands may need backend help, Peter said.
I also emailed some questions to Westlife Distribution President and CEO Mike West about this new move.
With the exception of physically manufacturing our garments, we've done everything in-house for almost two decades. In addition, Westlife has been working with NRI for well over 10 years now. We've always had a great working relationship and a strong respect for each other's success in business. For several years, (Westlife) has been exploring unique ways to expand our operations business and has provided 3PL (third party logistics) services for others.
It made sense for us to team up with NRI if we really wanted to do this right on a larger scale.
The market in LA is huge. The LA /Long Beach port is the largest in the US and the import point for most US manufacturers.

We are planning to drive from Ottawa to PEI, and the trip would start from this Sat. to next Sat. However, the weather right now seems not that good, and we're afraid that we won't have much scene to see over there right now. Should we postpone our trip to June, or is it still good to go there right now? Any suggestion?
Is now a good time to go there?

Well.....yesterday it snowed on PEI so that fact alone suggests that you may want to postpone until June! Or even July.

Speaking Thursday in Tokyo at The New Context Conference 2010, the founder of Twitter, Biz Stone (pictured), put onto the record two sentences that will stand the test of time in the era of social computing:
"Twitter isn't a triumph of technology it's a triumph of humanity. A more connected world leads to a more empathic world."
Interestingly, Stone makes this observation in the self-same week that saw the sale of TechCrunch, Inc. to New York-based AOL - triggering a spate of commentaries along the lines of This Is the Death of Independent Blogging.
Is this an inflexion point? Hell, yes. And a big one. This week is also the week in which, as Guy Kawasaki reminds us, that Twitter's traffic overtook that of MySpace.
So what is going on? Why is independent blogging being characterized as dying at the very moment that tweeting is becoming as natural a part of the interconnected world as breathing?
The key, I believe, is in that word "ïnterconnected" - because blogging, for all its merits, has always suffered from that one huge shortcoming, namely that (notwithstanding the excellent innovations like RSS, Trackbacks, the Technorati real-time APIs and even Google's Blog Search) it truly isn't very interactive. I blog, you blog, he/she/it blogs. We hyperlink to each other, but that is about it. Blog feedback threads are frustratingly isolated silos. In fact, to be blunt, blogging is about as innovative a use of the Web as propping open your office door with a Xitami web server.
Tweeting, in contrast, is quite another pair of shoes. Twitter is a true co-technology. And only co-technologies will truly flourish, in the second decade of the 21st century.
Biz Stone is right: "A more connected world leads to a more empathic world." That is after all one of the pillars of co-intelligence, of the belief that none of us is as smart as all of us.
It is going to be the most interesting decade ever. You heard it here first!
Disclosure: I have never been a huge proponent of blogging, as made transparent by this 2007 article.

The major cloud platforms defy a simple, side-by-side analysis. Each of the major IaaS public-cloud platforms offers their own unique strengths and functionality. Options for on-site private cloud are diverse as well, and must be designed and deployed while taking existing legacy architecture and infrastructure into account. Then the reality is that most enterprises are embarking on a hybrid cloud strategy and programs.

The definition of IoT is not new, in fact it's been around for over a decade. What has changed is the public's awareness that the technology we use on a daily basis has caught up on the vision of an always on, always connected world. If you look into the details of what comprises the IoT, you'll see that it includes everything from cloud computing, Big Data analytics, "Things," Web communication, applications, network, storage, etc. It is essentially including everything connected online from hardware to software, or as we like to say, it's an Internet of many different things.

My maiden name is Duckwiler. I have been trying to research it for a number of years, but the trail repeatedly runs dry with Daniel, ca 1770, botetourt county, va. There is also another distant relative researching the same name and her search apparently leads to the same dead end. Daniel had 2 sons, Isaac (my direct ancestor) and Joseph. Since the spellings and obvious pronunciations are so similar,I'm wondering if there could be any connection? I live in Illinois and have found a handful of Duckwilers scattered across the U.S. but few seem interested in family history. Have you any ideas or suggestions?

I was the only person on the bus so the bus driver was asking me questions about where I'm from, was I really travelling alone and where I had just arrived from (all very normal questions which I am quite used to now). We hit some major traffic when we turned onto a large one way street which we were stuck in for a while but it moved pretty well, it was mainly due to being around 5pm on a Friday. Soon ...

Officer top vote-getter in Manchester Ward 10
Barry said he was surprised at how often voters brought up public safety issues when he campaigned.
Greazzo said he recognizes that a series of well-publicized crimes in the city through the summer months — armed robberies, in particular — has voters uneasy.
"It's not just police work, it's also community service," Barry said. "They like it when someone goes out and does community service work, too."
