This application is a continuation-in-part of Ser. No. 08/056,354 filed May 1, 1993.
This invention generally relates to rigid multi-walled structures such as storage tanks for underground and/or aboveground placement which are used for holding hazardous, toxic, and/or corrosive fluids, fluids and petroleum products such as solvents, diesel fuel and/or gasoline. More particularly, this invention relates to multi-walled panel-like structures. This invention also relates to a method of manufacturing such structures and for installing said structures in existing single wall tanks to modify the tanks to be double walled tanks.
An increasing number of Federal Regulations relating to the design and strength of certain storage vessels to better insure containment of toxic or corrosive materials and to avoid contamination of the environment by release, now provide for double walled tanks, some of which permit leak alarms to be installed in the tanks. In many instances heretofore, the space between the layers in multilayer tank walls was usually filled with air, insulating material or rigid support members to avoid rupture of the container walls under stress.
Numerous attempts have been made to provide pressure tight and leak proof containers able to withstand stress caused by lateral forces utilizing the placement of seams, bolts and/or other supports, for example, in addition to placing detection systems in the event of fluid leaks.
In U.S. Pat. No. 4,098,426 for example, the use of unpartitioned end walls coupled with support flanges was used in order to optimize the transmission of axial forces of inertia and to prevent fluid leakage at the joint seams of the two container shells of steel or aluminum alloy. Because the ultimate use of these metal tanks was for cryogenically effected fluids, a foamed insulating material was loosely provided between the vessels for insulation purposes. However, no indication is provided as to the relative strength of those vessels, neither were any ribs integrated into the insulating wall for support.
Still other references are found such as U.S. Pat. No. 3,392,865 where filament-wound plastic shells employ closed shell polyurethane foams for thermal protection where a blender ply was used to provide gas conductance to a pressure tap in the event of gas leakage but again no indication is made as to the strength of the vessels described and in particular to the values of the lateral and axial inertia. Similarly, no method for making the interior containment wall comprising integrated ribs for support and positive total attachment is disclosed.
Anderson, in U.S. Pat. No. 3,335,904, disclosed a nonmetallic horizontal storage tank especially suitable for the underground storage of liquid hydrocarbons comprising a plastic sandwich construction having an enclosing wall forming a tubular body portion and end walls defining a substantially closed hollow structure, said tank including an inner skin and an outer skin space therefrom and including core material of relatively low structural strength between said skins, the tubular body portion having circumferential reinforcing rib means between said inner and outer skins. Bastone, in U.S. Pat. No. 3,412,892, discloses an underground storage tank, including layers of continuous filament wound fiberglass with layers of chopped fiberglass reinforced resin to produce a monolithic composite layer structure. Furthermore, Bastone teaches the use of a polyurethane foam support rib. Sharp, in U.S. Pat. No. 4,739,659, disclosed a double wall ribbed storage tank with secondary containment capability including the provision of a leak alarm safety monitor. Dallum, in U.S. Pat. No. 4,876,124, disclosed a tank having a composite wall including an inner wall and an outer wall, the inner wall comprising a material resistant to corrosion by gasoline or alcohol and the outer wall comprising a non-hydrolyzable resin. Pugnale, et al., in U.S. Pat. No. 4,781,777 disclosed a double wall tank having inner and outer walls.
Kauffman, Applicant for this application, in U.S. Pat. No. 5,143,244 and 5,232,119 disclosed a multi-walled apparatus having improved strength characteristics due to the fact that the inner and outer walls were integrally bonded together through ribs placed therein between.
From these and other references, it will be understood to those skilled in the art that multi-walled fiberglass reinforced fluid holding tank walls require improved strength, extreme resistance to lateral pressure and require a high axial force of inertia.
It is an object of this invention to allow existing single wall tanks to be retrofitted with the present invention so as to become a double walled tank.
It is an object of this invention to provide a process for making storage tank wall and bottom sections which possess a high axial force of inertia, are extremely rigid and are resistant to the stress of variable temperatures and movement.
It is a further object to provide storage tank sections of improved strength which are resistant to pressure when placed aboveground or underground and which can be made quickly and inexpensively.
The present invention provides for multi-walled panel-like sections having an inner wall and an outer wall separated by and supported by ribs, which ribs are 100% bonded to and integrally bonded with and/or laminated to the inner and outer walls. The walls are composed of chopped glass fiber strands impregnated with resin. Closed cell foam is also provided in the interstitial spaces between the walls. Additionally, a highly chemically resistant barrier is mixed with the chopped glass fiber and is applied to the entire inner surface of the inner wall sections. Furthermore, a leak alarm conduit is provided between the inner and outer layers. Panel sections are designed as cells in order to allow a leak alarm to indicate the exact location of a leak. This design provides for a panel section that has improved strength characteristics and the present invention provides for a wall section having a moment of inertia which is believed to be as high as 4.67 in4 which substantially eliminates torquing, buckling and rupturing.
The term "fiberglass" as used in this specification will generally denote glass fiber reinforced resinous material either cured or uncured. When a glass fiber reinforced resinous material cures, it hardens and is frequently referred to in the industry as a laminate meaning generally the cured composite structure. Also, depending on the context, the term "fiberglass" may at times refer to fiber or a thin layer of woven glass fibers.
A method for constructing a panel-like structure made according to the present invention is also provided. In summary, this includes: (1) providing a rigid mold of acceptable size; (2) applying a release agent to the mold; (3) forming the lower, first or bottom layer or wall of the structure of chopped fiberglass; (4) applying a first layer of rib shaped foam which acts as a form for the formation of support ribs; (5) forming the support ribs of chopped fiberglass; (6) applying a second layer of bridging foam between the ribs up and approximately level with the tops of the ribs; (7) placing leak alarm conduit between and outside the ribs for later containment of the leak alarm cable; (8) forming the upper or top layer, second or wall of the structure of chopped fiberglass; and (9) applying a highly chemically resistant barrier to the inner surface of the structure. This is the general method to form a single panel-like structure or section.
In order to accomplish a major object of the present invention, i.e., to modify or retrofit an existing single wall storage tank with the double wall sections, it is necessary to place multiple panel-like structures or sections of the present invention side by side and end to end inside the existing single wall tank. This is expected to be required only on the bottom of the existing single wall tank; and, is made necessary due to new environmental regulations requiring existing single wall storage tanks to have secondary containment and leak detection on the tank bottoms. Note that the double-walled sections of the present invention are made outside the storage tanks and then transported into and installed inside the storage tank.
These and other objects are achieved in the present invention by providing an improved multi-walled section of high strength and rigid construction whose method of construction is simple and less time consuming than the prior art.
A further object of the present invention is to provide a new and novel underground and/or aboveground fluid storage tank which provides for an optional safety monitor in the event of fluid leakage or spillage. The present invention provides the only true environmental protection double walled section with a positive leak alarm that is actuated within a short time of the leak. This wall section is designed with compartments or alternating closed cells which enables the leak alarm to indicate the exact location of the leak. This eliminates the need to remove the tank from the ground to find the leak or perform a clean-up of the tank and/or soil, saving a great deal of time, money and product lost into the ground. The compartmentalized tank can be repaired in place because the alarm locates the leak accurately and indicates it on the computer readout.
The present invention provides wall sections having a 100% bond between the ribs and the inner and outer structural wall section. The present invention improves over the prior art wall sections of this type by integrating the construction of the upper and lower walls, the reinforcing ribs, and the foam material between the walls. The ribs are built up over the rib shaped foam which act as forms for the ribs, so that the ribs and rib foot become laminated to the lower wall. The upper wall is then built up over the ribs and the briding foam layer located between the ribs, so that the upper wall becomes, laminated and bonded to the ribs and results in a relatively level, smooth wall having no undulations. This integration of the ribs and both walls provides greater strength than do other constructions wherein the parts are not positively interconnected and 100% bonded to each other. The bridging foam which is placed between the ribs acts merely as an aid to assure that the outer wall is 100% bonded to the top of the rib, i.e., the foam in between the ribs is only there to act as a form so as to allow the outer wall to be layed up evenly without wrinkling or having severe undulations. This integrated construction increases the moment of inertia of this wall section.
The closed cell foam material used in the present invention is somewhat compressible. It is a further object of the present invention, to assure that no material, e.g., foam, is placed in the interstitial spaces between the walls of the present invention that could cause a rupture, collapse or other failure due to the interaction of materials having different thermal coefficients of expansion which interaction could be caused by changing temperature conditions.

Containment vessels, such as tanks for aboveground and underground storage are useful in transporting and holding fluids such as petroleum products like gasoline, alcohol enhanced gasoline, jet fuel, diesel fuel, oxygenated fuels, fuel oil with certain temperature limitations, and corrosive substances and the like which spillage thereof would be environmentally detrimental, costly and dangerous. The bottom of the tanks retrofitted with the double wall structures or panel-like sections of the present invention, for example, would be composed of multi-containment walls or layers constructed of fiberglass or glass fibers in chopped glass fibers bonded with a suitable resin.
It should be noted that the term "fiberglass" as used in this specification will generally refer to a glass fiber reinforced resinous material either cured or uncured. When a glass fiber reinforced resinous material cures, it hardens and is frequently referred to in the industry as a laminate meaning generally the cured composite structure. Also, depending on the context, the term "fiberglass" may at times refer to glass fiber strands.
Between these multiple layers, in the air space or interstitial space, is placed closed cell foam such as a urethane foam, between the outer wall of the tank and the inner wall of the tank. In a preferred embodiment, a leak alarm conduit and cable is placed between these walls in order to detect fluid leaks and provide an appropriate alarm to the operator.
The structures of the present invention must likewise resist structural failures, e.g., buckling. The tank wall and bottom sections of the present invention are designed, and have been successfully tested, to withstand a combination of internal and external loads due to burial and internal pressure due to partial vacuum unlike those of the prior art. This is a unique and novel improvement of the present invention over the the prior art.
Replacement of the air between the walls or interstitial space with a continuous core material, such as polyurethane and the like, improves the insulative qualities of the tank wall section and results in decreased condensation of moisture on the inside of the tank.
Turning to the drawings, FIG. 1a shows a partial of the top wall or layer, 11, of a single section, 12, of a panel-like structure of the present invention. The top of the multiple ribs are shown at 13, along with the multiple rib feet, 15, with the leak alarm conduit, 17. FIG. 1a is an embodiment wherein the ribs run parallel to the shorter edge of the panel, 12.
FIG. 1b shows another embodiment of the present invention wherein the ribs run parallel to the longer edge of the panel-like structure, 12. Therein is shown the panel, 12, the top layer of the panel, 11, the top of the ribs, 13, the rib feet, 15, and the leak alarm conduit, 17. Note that the panel-like structures of the present invention are generally rectangular shaped and in practice are about 8 feet by 20 feet in size although they can be made in many sizes and shapes according to the needs or specifications of the customer.
FIG. 2 is a cross-section taken along line A--A of FIG. 1a and line A--A of FIG. 1b. FIG. 2 shows the lower, first or bottom wall or layer, 19, along with the upper, second or top wall or layer, 11. The reinforcing ribs are shown generally at 23. The feet of the reinforcing ribs, 15, are shown in integral contact with the lower wall, 19, and the top of the ribs, 13, are shown in integral contact with the upper wall, 11. The rib shaped foam, 25, is shown along with the bridging foam, 27. The leak alarm conduit is shown at 17. The chemically resistant barrier or layer is shown at 31. Note that the ribs, 23, are 100% bonded to the upper wall, 11, and the lower wall, 19, through the top of the ribs, 13, and the feet of the ribs, 15, respectively.
FIG. 3 is a cross-section taken along line B--B of FIG. 1a and line B--B of FIG. 1b (Note: section line B--B lies on the approximate center-line of the leak alarm conduit, 17.) FIG. 3 shows a single panel-like section 12. FIG. 3 shows the lower or bottom wall or layer, 19, along with the upper or top wall or layer, 11. Note that the bottom layer, 19, has vertical walls on its sides. The leak alarm conduit, 17, is shown having openings, holes therein or perforations, 33, through which leaking liquids would be allowed to pass in order to reach the leak alarm cable (this cable is not shown in FIG. 3) which would be installed inside the conduit. The bridging foam is shown at, 27. The chemically resistant layer, 31, is also shown.
FIG. 4 is a plan view of one embodiment of the top of the panels, showing hidden lines of the leak alarm conduit only, wherein several sections of the present invention are shown arranged on the floor of a vertically walled storage tank. FIG. 4 shows the top layer, 11, of multiple sections, 12, along with the wall, 41, of a vertically walled storage tank. Note that FIG. 4 shows one embodiment of the present invention wherein the wall or floor sections are made in triangle shaped fashion. Note that the sections can be made in different shapes depending on the needs of the customer or particular application. Also note the sections, 12, are placed on the bottom of an existing tank in order to retrofit the tank so as to provide secondary containment as required by new environmental regulations. An exemplary configuration of the leak alarm conduit is shown, 17, along with a circumferential leak alarm conduit, 63.
FIG. 5 is similar to FIG. 4 except that the sections are rectangular shaped. The top layer, 11, of the sections, 12, are shown along with the tank wall, 41. Exemplary configurations of the leak alarm conduit, 17, and circumferential leak alarm conduit, 63, are shown.
FIG. 6 shows an elevation view of a vertically standing storage tank, 43, with a vertical wall, 41, top 45, and bottom, 47. The top or upper layer of the structures of the present invention are shown at, 11. Other details, i.e., hidden lines, of the structures are purposely omitted for ease of understanding.
FIG. 7 is a cross sectional view showing two sections of the present invention in order to illustrate how the sections would be joined together to form a bottom of a retrofitted tank. FIG. 7 is taken along a similar section as in FIG. 3. FIG. 7 shows the two sections 12, the upper layers, 11, the lower layers, 19, the bridging foam, 27, the leak alarm conduits, 17, having perforations therein, 33. The floor of the tank is shown at 51. The two sections are joined by a butt and strap joint, 53, with this joint being filled with resilient joint material (Pilgram or equal) at 55. The resilient joint material may be Pilgram Permacoat or equivalent and is believed to be made of vinyl resin ester. It is believed that it uses elongated fibers as the filler which doesn't necessarily have to be made of fiberglass, e.g., Cabasil made by Degussa. The butt and strap joint and resilient joint filler material is necessary to prevent leaks between the panels. Note that the sections have a lip, 57, which can be generally described as a modified Bell and Spigot joint (only the upper portion of the bell is used) which allows the sections or panels to be easily joined together. Note that this modified bell and spigot joint male portion or lip, 57, has a slight taper on it's upper edge shown at 59 which taper allows the lip to be easily fitted into the adjacent recess, 61, of each successive section or panel, 12. Additionally, FIG. 7 shows the circumferential leak alarm conduit, 63, and outer tank wall, 41. Additional resilient joint material is shown attaching the panel to the tank side wall at, 65, which both attaches and secures the panel to the side wall and prevents leaks between the panel and the side wall.
FIG. 8 shows a detailed elevation view of a typical butt and strap joint. The upper layer of two adjacent panels, 11, are shown along with the butt and strap joint, 53. The joint, 53, is made by butting the square cut ends of two panel-like sections together and applying a resin/fiberglass overlay, 53, to the prepared interior and exterior areas around the joint line, 54. This type of joint is typically used during fabrication of fittings and special components.
FIG. 9 shows an embodiment using a steel flashing-like member, 71, for attaching the panels to the vertical side walls of a tank. Therein is shown the panel section, 12, with its top, 11, and the circumferential leak alarm conduit, 63. The tank bottom, 51, and the side wall, 41, are shown. The steel flashing-like member, 71, is shown connected to both the steel tank wall, 41, and the top of the panel, 11. The steel flashing, 71, is attached to the vertical tank wall, 41, typically by a welding means, 73, or other attachment means appropriate for joining steel members. The steel flashing, 71, is attached to the top of the panel, 11, by a fiber reinforced plastic or like material in the form of another butt and strap joint, 75. Resilient joint material, 77, is shown to further seal the tank bottom and prevent leaks between the tank and panels.
FIG. 10 shows another embodiment for attaching the panels to the vertical side walls of a steel storage tank. Therein is shown the panel, 12, its top, 11, the circumferential leak alarm conduit, 63, the tank bottom, 51, and the vertical tank side wall, 41. A fiber reinforced plastic or like material in the form of another butt and strap joint, 75, is used to attach and seal the panel, 12, to the steel tank side wall, 41. Resilient joint material, 77, is shown to further seal the space between the tank wall, 41, and panel, 12.
FIG. 11 shows an exemplary configuration of laying out the panels and leak alarm conduits and cable for an approximate 210 feet diameter storage tank floor. The tank wall is shown at, 41, along with the leak alarm cable, 81. Effective connecting or coupling means, 83, is provided to connect succeeding sections of the leak alarm cable which has been passed through all the leak alarm conduits (not shown). The panels are shown at, 12, along with the top of the panels, 11. Note that the portions of the leak alarm cable, 81, that would normally be shown as hidden (dashed) lines are shown as solid lines for ease of understanding. Succeeding sections of the leak alarm cable are shown at A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, and M.

Description: This book presents the results and conclusions of a comprehensive four-year study of how 11 major healthcare systems are responding to the cost-containment pressures of managed care. It offers suggestions and recommendations for implementing a more integrated, cost-effective healthcare delivery system oriented to a model of community healthcare management.
Purpose: The purpose is to present the paradigm of organized (i.e., integrated) healthcare systems as an intermediate step in the evolution of community healthcare management systems. The objective is to describe a community-oriented model that (1) overcomes fragmentation that characterizes present delivery systems; (2) shows how to build community; (3) explains the development of competencies and capabilities required for a community healthcare management system; and (4) suggests ways to establish a local and national health policy that supports the transformation to a community model of healthcare delivery.
Audience: The authors denote four major audiences for this book: (1) healthcare policymakers at state and federal levels; (2) health services executives and clinical leaders; (3) insurers and payers; and (4) health service researchers. But almost anyone interested in the direction of healthcare will find the book of interest. Medical students and young physicians would benefit from reading it, because they will be practicing in tomorrow's environment of healthcare delivery. The authors are all expert in their respective fields and as a group are very well qualified to compile the text.
Features: The book is well composed and formatted as might be expected from the publisher, Jossey-Bass. The book contains a few line drawings as illustrations; more illustrations would have helped with some of the more complex concepts. There is an adequate number of references, and they are up-to-date. A comprehensive index is provided, and two appendixes yield brief descriptions of the institutions studied and the types of data collected. The writing is clear and succinct, and the book is a pleasure to read, especially because many of the concepts go well beyond the traditional paradigm of integrated delivery systems as models for managed care.
Assessment: This book presents the challenge of creating an environment that supports the evolution of the nation's healthcare system into a more integrated, community-wide approach that focuses on alliances, linkages, and partnerships with public health and social service agencies. It offers a conceptual framework for promoting the integration of finance, human resources, strategic planning, total quality management, and information systems into a new model of healthcare delivery. Anyone thinking about the future of healthcare and how individuals, institutions, and healthcare systems should position themselves to prepare for it should read this book. It will prove to be an invaluable resource to effective planning for the future.

Pandora Could Become a $100 Stock
TheStreet) -- If you haven't been following my article history at TheStreet, littered with predictive Pandora (P - Get Report) articles, don't fret, you still have time to get with the program.Together we can not only understand, but vision the composition and trajectory of the Internet radio space as it pertains to the world of tech and the music industrial complex's future. Several factors, IMNSHO (in-my-not-so-humble-opinion), will coalesce to take Pandora close to and, quite possibly, beyond the $100 level over the next one-to-three years. Even though $30 came and went much more quickly than even I expected, do not mistake -- I repeat -- do not mistake this article as an endorsement to buy Pandora stock ahead of earnings. I don't care if it shoots to the moon Friday morning. It's an awful strategy to greedily hold out for a larger share of P's 300% upside over the last year than you have already captured. You're asking to have your head handed to you if you make that a strategy, headed into earnings, on stocks that are priced to perfection. Manage your position by selling enough of it to ensure a dip or outright collapse doesn't hurt you badly. With that out of the way, here's what investors -- and astute consumers of information I like to call "smart generalists" -- should be thinking about as they sit back, watch the dust settle and consider Pandora's future as an investment, Internet radio pioneer and music industry savior.Video rant on Page Two.

Mavic's fury shoes offer zero compromise when it comes to speed. Ultra-stiff and ultra-comfortable, they're often seen on the feet of Julien Absalon and Tim Johnson, XC and cyclocross specialists, respectively. The uppers are built around a TPU frame with microfiber in between, which provides the near-sock-like comfort of the previous iteration of the Fury, but with a bit more sturdy feeling. The sole is a unidirectional carbon fiber that's been molded to an optimal shape and tuned to provide just a bit of give at the toe, which we've found to be nice on long rides. The Furys are compatible with mud spikes (which are also included).

Geek Guides
In modern computer systems, privacy and security are mandatory. However, connections from the outside over public networks automatically imply risks. One easily available solution to avoid eavesdroppers' attempts is SSH. But, its wide adoption during the past 21 years has made it a target for attackers, so hardening your system properly is a must.
Additionally, in highly regulated markets, you must comply with specific operational requirements, proving that you conform to standards and even that you have included new mandatory authentication methods, such as two-factor authentication. In this ebook, I discuss SSH and how to configure and manage it to guarantee that your network is safe, your data is secure and that you comply with relevant regulations.Get the Guide

"Misinformation has been circulating recently regarding our wages and benefits. We regularly complete wage surveys in all of our markets to ensure that we pay competitive wages."
"I don't need somebody behind a desk to tell me what a marketing survey says is funny. I got 3 million miles and 70,000 tickets sold, telling me that I know how to make people laugh."
"The survey shows a gradual decrease in drug trends that began about four years ago. Drug trends, which have traditionally been higher than medical trends, are now almost the same. However, we anticipate drug trends to grow again in the next several years, due to the introduction of new innovative therapies into the marketplace."
"The market focused on only the good things in the survey. That suggests how far and fast the market sentiment has improved."
"We test the market and do our own surveys and studies. The other thing is the traffic count; if there's a lot of traffic on any particular thoroughfare, we seem to do well because people are familiar with us, especially in the Tampa Bay area."
"Taken together, the findings and directional trends in the survey may tell us that devoting additional resources to formalized retention programs and focusing on cultural and behavioral issues during recruitment can be effective in lowering turnover."

Sunnis Wary of Elected Government
As the Bush administration and U.N. teams struggle to help Iraqis create a new government, the Sunni population is apprehensive. Sunnis, a minority in Iraq, enjoyed a privileged position under Saddam Hussein's rule. Many now fear losing their privileges — and possibly being persecuted — under an elected government.

Hobbs Point is a privately owned 9 acre peninsula in the forest, surrounded by the waters of Wagonga Inlet. No cars, no industry, only the sounds of nature and the odd oyster fisherman's punt. At night listen to the fish jumping in Wagonga Inlet and Be astonished by the night skies. It is quite simply, a stunning place to relax and recharge. You can do nothing and still be fully engaged with the sights and sounds of nature.

Hobbs Point Cottage has been architecturally designed to accommodate two people, with hebel walls, timber lined cathedral ceiling, tiled floor throughout and a floor to ceiling north facing window wall leading to an outside timber deck. The decor and fittings have been carefully selected to compliment the superb unspoiled views of forest, water and sky on every side. Everything is provided except your meals.
Hobbs Point Cottage is located 50 metres from the waters edge, sited to maximize the glorious 180 degree views of water and forest, with no houses in view from your deck. You can use our canoe, bring your own kayak or small powered boat, or just fish from the shore. Hobbs Point is almost an island; threequarters of the boundary are fronted by the waters of Wagonga Inlet, which enters the Pacific Ocean at Narooma.

Sebastian Vollmer is out for Sunday's game.FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Tight end Aaron Hernandez (knee), offensive tackle Sebastian Vollmer (back), and defensive lineman Mike Wright (concussion) have been ruled out by the Patriots for Sunday's game against the Buffalo Bills.
With Vollmer out, rookie Nate Solder is expected to make his second career start.
Safety Patrick Chung (hand) and defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth (back) headline a group of eight players listed as questionable. Chung engaged in limited participation Friday, his first practice action of the week, while Haynesworth missed his second day of activity.
On the positive side for New England, cornerback Kyle Arrington (concussion) participated fully in Friday's session and would seem on target to play Sunday. Here's the full game status report:
TE Aaron Hernandez (knee)
OT Sebastian Vollmer (back)
DL Mike Wright (concussion)
S Patrick Chung (hand)
CB Ras-I Dowling (hip)
LB Gary Guyton (hamstring)
DT Albert Haynesworth (back)
LB Jerod Mayo (thigh)
P Zoltan Mesko (knee)
WR Taylor Price (hamstring)
OL Ryan Wendell (calf)
CB Kyle Arrington (concussion)
S Josh Barrett (thumb)
CB Leigh Bodden (hand)
LB Dane Fletcher (thumb)
For the Buffalo Bills, cornerback Terrence McGee (hamstring), linebacker Kirk Morrison (hamstring), wide receiver Roscoe Parrish (ankle), and guard Kraig Urbik (knee) have all been ruled out. Defensive end Spencer Johnson (hip), wide receiver Stevie Johnson (groin), and defensive tackle Torell Troup (back) are all probable.

Today, after work, I parked in the parking lot I go to every day to let heavy traffic go by.
