United States Patent O Int. Cl. E04b 7/ 00 U.S. Cl. 52-82 3 Claims ABSTRACT F THE DISCLOSURE 'I'his invention is directed to a house of relatively simple construction for quick installation and for temporary or permanent use, the elements of which lend themselves to easy construction and a composite building when completed which possesses inherent strength and resistance to storm elements. Each house is formed of a series of side panels extending upward with the lower ends of the panels secured to a base and each panel secured to its adjacent side member. The panels are peculiar in that they can be and preferably are formed of relatively thin flat sheets possessing natural rigidity, which sheets are, while being incorpora-ted in the house, subjected to tension providing them with lateral curvature with the result that the assembly of the upright side panels provides a series of arcuate panels, the total assembly of which possesses strength and resistance to storms and lateral movement.
The panels, together with the holding members preferably of extruded aluminum, which receive and embrace the side edges of the panels to hold the panels under tension, embody a vital feature of the invention.
This application is a continuation-impart of application Ser. No. 652,873, filed July 12, 1967, and entitled Single- Walled Modular Stressed Panel Structures, and now abandoned.
This continuation-in-part application is directed generally to the broader phases of the house construction which was presented in the parent application but includes certain improvements to which this specification will also be directed.
As in the specification of the parent application, the house of this invention is directed to the -use of a series of side panels extending upward with the lower ends of the panels secured to a base and each panel secured to its adjacent side holding member. The panels are formed of relatively thin fiat sheets possessing natural rigidity which are subjected, while being incorporated in the house, to tension to provide each panel Iwith lateral curvature with the result that the assembly of panels provides a series of arcuate panels, the total assembly of which possesses strength and resistance to storms and lateral movement.
Incorporated with the panels to receive their lateral edges and to hold them under tension is a rigid holding member which preferably extends the full length of each panel to receive and embrace the side edge of the panel. Preferably also this holding member is of extruded aluminum or other material having two arms extending from a third an and possessing rigidity and adapted to receive the side edge of the panel between the two arms. -A third arm of the holding member is adapted to be held iixedly.
The panel material may be of any flexible but fairly rigid material such as liber hardboard, fiber glass, plastic, plywood, sheet metal at or corrugated which can be curved and placed under tension.
The following are the principles of the method and fabrication and assembly of the essential elements of the house of this invention. For example, using a fiber hardboard 1/8 inch thick by 4 feet wide by 7 feet high for ice the material of a vertical panel section, Ithe upper end portion is scalloped to a predetermined radius. The radius of the scallop of the top of the vertical wall panel is determined by the curvature of the roof panel. The next step is the provision of a specially designed holding member to be bonded to the opposite edges of all of the wall and roof materials for the purpose of holding the panels under tension. This holding member may be of any suitable rigid material such as aluminum, steel, wood, plastic, but preferably of extruded aluminum. This holding element for embracing the lateral edge of each panel is provided with spaced substantially parallel arms between which is a channel to receive the edges of the panels. Said arms are set olf at a specific angle from a third arm and preferably at an oblique angle from the third arm. The third arm is designed to be held rigidly so as to anchor the arms of the channel.
When the edge portion of the panels is received in the channel, the direction of the panel as it extends from the arms of the channel is at an angle from said arms with the result that between one of the arms and the panel member there is a slight space which serves satisfactorily for the reception of caulking, bonding, or waterproong.
All of the upright panel members are cut to exactly the same length and are drilled to accept, for example, 1A inch bolts every 12 inches apart, and at the bottom with holes to fasten the wall panels to a iioor bracket previously fastened to the floor. The bottom of each upright holding member is cut square but the top of each holding member is cut at a specific angle to match up with the roof holding member so as to correspond at a correct roof pitch.
The upper end of each wall panel holding member is provided with two holes spaced one inch apart for attaching a mounting plate extending at an angle from the 'wall panel to support the lower end of roof panel members.
All of the aluminum roof panel edge supporting holding members are cut to the same length, the upper cut being square and the bottom cut being at a predetermined angle to match the same angle as provided by the upright panel wall holding members. Likewise the top holes are drilled to fasten to a steel ring at the peak of the roof, and holes along the iiange of the holding member are drilled for 1A inch bolts for securing roof sections together. At the bottom of each holding element twin holes one inch apart are provided for accepting the bolting of the mounting plate.
After all of the wall materials have been scalloped at the top, the holding member is cut and drilled and the next step is to bond the wall material into the channel of the holding member arms with a waterproof and long lasting bonding adhesive. When the adhesive is firmly dried, the wall panels are ready to be coated with a good waterproof solution.
In conformity rwith the foregoing general outline, the invention will be discussed and further described in conjunction -with the several views of the drawings, in which:
FIG. 1 shows a top plan view of a house conforming to the title of this invention, specifically single-walled modular stressed panel structures;
FIG. 2 is a side elevation looking at the door panel section;
FIG. 3 is a sectional view looking down on the plate for securing the house to a base;
FIG. 4 is a view taken on line 4 4 of FIG. 3 looking at the edge of the base plate shown in FIG. 3;
FIG. 5 is a view of the mounting plate for securing the upper end of the wall panel holding member to the lower end of the roof holding member;
FIG. 6 is a cross sectional view of the holding member having a channel between parallel arms;
FIG. 7 is a fragmentary view of the type of construction shown in FIG. 3 of the parent application Ser. No. 652,873 for maintaining tension on the upright panel elements; and
FIG. 8 is a view of a suitable iloor plan according to which the interior of the house is divided into different rooms, also similar to the plan shown in the parent application.
Referring in detail to the several figures of the drawings, 1 indicates the sector shaped roof panels. 1a represents that lower edge portion of the roof panels extending beyond the wall of the upright panels 2. The front door panel 3 is slightly more narrow than the associated upright panels. The door is shown as flat for lying in one plane as contrasted to the curved shape of the associated panels 2.
Windows 4 are indicated in FIG. 2. 5 indicates the oor of the house which may be provided by the surface of the wooden box members in which the packaged material of the house may Ibe shipped. That wooden floor may be mounted on any other material or if so desired the base material may be of concrete having bolts em- Ibedded in the concrete andextending upwardly for engagement with the oor bracket now to be described.
The house may `be secured to a foundation whether it be of plain earth or other material by means of a spike 6 which is driven downwardly diagonally, as shown in FIG. 4, through the bracket member 7 which has an upwardly extending ange 7a adapted to |be bolted to the lower portion of the panel holding members, as indicated in FIG. 4.
At the peak of the roof a collar member 8 has a lower portion to which the upper edge of the roof panels may be secured and a vertical portion serving as a vent, the walls of which provide for the attachment of any suitable vent or decorative units. The collar member 8 should be of steel and sturdy.
The element 9, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, is an angle piece adapted to connect the upright panel elements with the roof structure. This element 9 is preferably cast aluminum.
FIG. 6 illustrates a cross sectional view of the holding member 10 which is adapted to receive in the channel between its parallel arms 11 the edge of the panels 2 to hold them under tension. The element 10 has a third arm 12 from which the arms 11 extend obliquely. The arm 12 is adapted to be held tixedly to any fixed supporting member. According to FIG. 3, it will be observed that the arms 11 receive between them the edge of the panel 2 and that there is a slight space between the panel 2 and one of the arms into which there may be introduced a bonding material 13.
In FIG. 6 a recess 10a is shown in the wall of the holding member 10. This wall is on the side of the holding member opposite to the channel and when the holding members are placed -back to back, as in FIG. 3, the combined recesses of the two holding members forms a space for the reception of a caulking bead 15. This is particularly pertinent to the construction of the roof, as will be explained. It is illustrated in FIG. 3.
FIG. 7 illustrates the holding bar 14 of the parent application Ser. No. 652,873 which is used for holding the panels 2 under tension. It will be observed that the return bend of the tension member 14 extends through the third arm 12 of the holding member 10 and that the arms 11 are shown in FIG. 7 for precisely the same purpose as in FIGS. 3 and `6.
FIG. 8 shows how the interior of a house of this construction may be divided into rooms for a variety of purposes.
In the foregoing, there has been set forth a description of the essential features of this new house. For such additional information as may rbe useful, the following erecting procedure is set forth:
(1) Lay out the circle and dimensions on the packing case sides or such other broad area. Directions and specitications will be enumerated on instruction sheets shipped with each house.
(2) Fasten oor brackets in place according to where the panel end edges should be located.
(3) Fasten door section upright to the floor brackets. Since the door section is not stressed, i.e. curved, but is in a flat plane, it has upright members onto which to fasten the adjoining wall panels through the holes provided in the llanges, spaced arms 11.
(4) Working on the inside from right to left, insert all of the bolts through the holes to attach a panel to the door section, except for the top two holes. These holes are reserved for the attachment of the mounting plates 9 as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5.
(5) The mechanic now compresses with his knee the 48 inch panel to -be attached to the inside of the next floor bracket and secured with a bolt. This will now compress the panel to a 45 inch cord.
(i6) Using the next panel, line it up with the holes of the panel just erected in item (5), and insert again all of the bolts except the top two, and x firmly with the nuts provided.
(7) Continuing this procedure, the panel with the window louvre or whatever cutouts are desired in whatever sequence it is desired, the final panel should be fastened to the opposite side of the door. The resultant structure now has the shape denoted by the dotted lines in FIG. l of the drawing. The compressed panels press against each other and do not depend on the adhesive at 13 (see FIG. 3) for strength. It must be obvious that a 48 inch panel, compressed to a 45 inch cord and confined by the geometric design of the holding members (FIG. 6) sets up a unit of tremendous strength and holding power.
The roof diagram shows all of the wedge shaped sections are alike except for one over the door. The roof panels at the wide part are, again as in the wall panels, 48 inches wide. A scalloped radius is extended along the circle of the wall sections so as to create an overhang and also to enhance the eye appeal.
ASSEMBLING THE ROOF The following further instructions pertain particularly to the assembling of the roof.
A bead of caulking 15 is run into the recess provided between the opposed curves 10a of the adjacent holding members. Next another section of roof panel is placed in position alongside of the previously mentioned roof panel and the holes and bolts are lined up with the roof sections together but leaving the bottom two holes for bolting to the mounting plate 9 (FIG. 5). In order to bolt both of these two roof panels to the mounting plate, a second person is needed to hold the peak of the panels high enough to match up the pitch of the mounting plate. If a second person is not available, then a long pole can be clamped to the upper end to hold up the weight. Bolts are now inserted into holes provided in the mounting plate 9 and nuts are fastened to secure it in place.
A bead of caulking is now run in as before and the next roof panel is bolted to that section already in place. It will be noted that in order to insert bolts into the next mounting plate, the roof panel must be pulled down over the scallop provided on the vertical wall panel. This action puts the roof panel into stress. It provides strength against snow loads and pulls together both the roof panels and the wall panels into identical 45 inch cord.
When all the roof panels are in place and bound together by the holding members and the mounting plates 9, and the ring at the top binds together the upper ends of the panels so that they cannot separate, the structure is put to test. It might be assumed that by placing a weight on the peak, the peak would be caused to lower or sag.
However, if the peak lowers, then the upper perimeter of the house should expand, that is the diameter should increase. Nevertheless the 45 inch cord cannot become greater, as for example 46 inch cord, unless the crown of each of the stressed roof panels lowers in order to broaden the length of the cord. But this cannot happen because the scallop of the vertical wall panel is holding it up, and it cannot possible be lowered. This is the reason stress bars are not needed and the roof will stand up unsupported, rigid and strong.
The steel riugwhich is number -8 in the drawing at the peak of the roof, must be of suicient thickness and strength to iirmly retain all of the aluminum holding members properly aligned in position and pitch. This construction also will prevent all aluminum holding members from pushing outwardly.
The following steps and features in the foregoing construction should be observed: 1
(1) The aluminum holding member 10 and its associated holding member are designed to have thearms 11 extending at a special angle to throw the wall panels into a specific curve.
(2) The upper end of the vertical wall holding member is cut to a specific angle which again matches the angle of the lower ends of the roof holding members.
(3) The roof panel material is provided with a special arch by the degree of angle in the arms 11 ofthe holding member.
(4) The curvature of the roof arch panel is determined Iby the radius of the scallop of the vertical wall panels.
(5 The radius of the wall scallops supports the arch of the roof panel and prevents it from sagging and extending the cord beyond the example, 45 inch cord, chosen.
(6) The mounting plates 9 establish the relation between the fixed perimeter and fixed diameter and at the same times throws the roof holding members in a xed upward pitch.
(7) The strong lsteel ring 8 at the peak pulls together all roof panel holding members.
The foregoing is believed to present suicent explanation to enable a capable workman to assemble the house. Working explanations to facilitate the workmen -will embody details for the assembly of the roof and also forthe description of the geometric configurations which bind this structure into a new and unique unit. Instructions will also be provided as to how the steel peak ring 8 is incorporated.
Windows, doors, louvres, Ventilating turbines, chimney caps, flooring, interior or exterior decorating are not basic with this structure and can be adapted to customers wishes and finances. One of the desirable feaures of this house construction is that it can be prefabricated, predrilled and packaged in a flat condition at the factory in convenient four foot by eight foot plywood boxes and the plywood can be used as the ilooring 5 with all of the holesv pre-drilled to accept the floor brackets 7 so that a diameter layout is not necessary to initiate the assembly.
'Since the product is circular, it can withstand wind forces of greater velocity since the essential surfaces are not flat. Winds tend to build up pressures against at surfaces. This eliminates the need for heavy reinforcements, heavier wall materials and higher costs.
The following are the recommended uses of this type structure:
Fiber glass for greenhouses, vegetation cubicles for government air pollution studies, cabanas or pool side dressing rooms or pool covers, and enclosures.
Aluminum or steel wall material for storage of heavy machinery and equipment.
Fiber hardboard bonded and weatherproofed against water and mildew, for use in Vietnam etc. refugee housing, job corps, disaster areas, nurses sleeping quarters in epidemic areas, geological survey expedition head quarters. Large structures can be divided into several 6 rooms, with bath and kitchen facilities as beach houses, hunting and camping lodges.
For temporary set-ups, the common hardware store variety caulking is recommended along the bottom perimeter, inside and outside, to seal wall panels to the oor to keep out bugs, water, etc. Also at the juncture of side walls and roof where the wall scallop meets the roof and also in caulked recess 13 shown in FIG. 3. This caulking breaks apart more easily when it is ready to be disassembled.
For permanent housing and for use all year round and foryears to come, the same bonding adhesive that binds the wall material into the channel between the arms 11 of the holding member will lbe supplied to bond the base of the walls to the floor and the junction where the side wall scallop meets the roof. This adhesive is so strong that wood or fiber board will sometimes break before the adhesive breaks.
I claim:
1. A Prefabricated building structure comprising a base, a plurality of brackets secured to said base, said brackets being spaced apart and disposed in a generally circular array on said base, a generally circular wall positioned on said base and projecting upwardly therefrom, said wall comprising a plurality of elongated flexible panels positioned in edge-to-edge, connected relationship, each panel having means joined to the opposed vertical edges with the adjacent means on contiguous edges being joined together, the lower ends of the joined together means being secured to said brackets, each panel being bowed outwardly between its vertical edges to a generally arcuate cross-sectional configuration, a generally conical roof disposed on the wall, said roof comprising 'a plurality of circularly disposed supports secured to the upper ends of said means and extending in upwardly converging relation to an apex, upwardly arched exible roof panels secured between said spaced supports, the lower edges of said roof panels projecting beyond said wall vand constituting an overhang, the outward curvature of said wall panels corresponding to the upward curvature of said roof panels at the intersection thereof whereby a substantially line contact is provided between the wall and roof panels at said intersection.

Vice President and CIO
Accelerate fast-fashion retailing
The Wet Seal transforms historical sales data into accurate projections of future demand
For retailers, having the right assortment of merchandise – in the ideal mix of sizes – at each store is a difficult objective to achieve on a consistent basis. Traditional methods of size optimization rely on the use of top-down chain averages. Since there are few average stores, this typically results in early season stock-outs, sales losses and excessive end-of-season markdowns for the same merchandise in different stores. Such size optimization strategies aren't viable in today's hypercompetitive retail world, with ever-increasing customer demands.
While most retailers rely on manual processes, we look for technologies that augment our limited resources and help raise intelligence about our operations and make decisions on a more automated, efficient and statistical basis.
Jon Kubo
With a low cost of entry for new competitors, the fast-fashion market is a competitive environment, with retailers of all sizes vying for frequent customer and same-store sales of trendy, low-cost clothing and accessories.
To remain competitive in its market, while ensuring customer loyalty and satisfaction, it's necessary for the fast-fashion retailer to optimally stock right-size products in each store. Having the right products helps The Wet Seal increase sales, reduce sales losses and increase margins by avoiding excessive markdowns.
To help accomplish this, The Wet Seal is using SAS Size Profiling to transform historical sales data into accurate projections of future demand by size. Integrated with existing merchandising systems, it applies this intelligence to purchasing and allocation workflows. The result is optimal, store-specific size profiles that match local demand.
The retailer's fast-fashion business model is based on providing customers with a selection of trendy clothing and accessories, while turning over inventory two to three times faster than a traditional retailer. Eighty-five percent of new products in its stores will not be replenished, allowing shelf space for new product lines that are frequently introduced.
"In the traditional apparel business model, they can replenish their stock if they get the allocation wrong the first time," says Jon Kubo, Vice President and CIO, The Wet Seal. "Because we're a fast-fashion retailer, 85 percent of our product is not replenished. Size profiling is important to us not only for buying the right size breaks, but also because we only get to buy a product once, with the objective of selling through it quickly. On the allocation side, we have to know what the correct sizes need to be per store. The Wet Seal is moving toward a localized, customer-centric approach to pricing, assortment and size at the local store level - size profiling is our first step in doing that. In our market, this is where we will create growth and gain an advantage."
According to Ryu and Kubo, a key insight delivered by the SAS Size Profiling solution is the ability to calculate lost sales at both the chain and store-specific levels. If a store didn't sell a particular product because it wasn't in stock, the SAS solution can efficiently help The Wet Seal look at similar stores in a cluster and imply why the store might have made the same sale.
"We've never had that information at a store level," says Kubo. "When we buy a product now, we can aggregate all the store sizes to know what the exact size breaks will be in the chain. Because we are optimizing sizes, we will improve sales and margins, and reduce markdowns. These are the biggest benefits we are getting."
"With SAS we can now understand the sizes selling at specific stores," adds Ryu, whose planning team creates the size curves that go into the central database and allocation system from which buyers can choose the curves they want to use to calculate size breaks for each store.
"We are pleased to have a tool that can generate the right size curves and do that in an efficient manner," continues Ryu. "The buying organization has been very receptive because they benefit from better sell-through of the products that they buy. Store managers and customers are also seeing results from solution. Negative feedback regarding size availability has reduced drastically."
To emphasize the positive effect the planning and allocation team's work with the solution is having on the company's business performance, and the recognition it has received from the executive management team, Ryu and Kubo point to a recent annual report that states: "We will also continue to improve upon our markdown cadence and size offerings by fully utilizing our markdown and size optimization systems."
According to Kubo, the implementation had a tight deadline, but was delivered on time and on budget. SAS' industry-experienced consultants delivered the solution in phases and were able to provide early improvements in size profiling calculations.
"Traditional business intelligence in retail has reached a plateau of usefulness," Kubo says. "We looked for specialized analytical applications that offered automated analytical capabilities, reducing the need for more human resources. SAS Size Profiling is a good example of this. While most retailers rely on manual processes, we look for technologies that augment our limited resources and help raise intelligence about our operations and make decisions on a more automated, efficient and statistical basis."
The Wet Seal needed to optimize its size profiling process at the store level to increase sales and margins, understand and reduce sales losses, and avoid excessive markdowns.
With optimized size profiling, The Wet Seal is:
- Increasing same-customer and same-store sales.
- Calculating and reducing sales losses.
- Improving margins through reduced markdowns.
- Keeping store inventory at a manageable level.
- Increasing customer loyalty and satisfaction.

Knife sharpening
- s
- superkatie Jan 14, 2012 08:41 AM
Just got my knives sharpened at a Sur La Table store and they came back duller than ever! Any recommendations for a place near NW DC/Bethesda? Will travel further if highly recommended. I searched the archives, but couldn't find anything recent.
I bought a Shun from another cook for ten dollars 'cause he didn't like the handle! Sent it to the US headquarters in Oregon and they sharpened it for FREE (paid S&H). Before you give your knife up, ask HOW they sharpen it. One knife of mine awhile back (not Shun) came back with a blue hue to it, too heavy of a hand=too hot=lost temper of blade=lost edge. Risking to state the obvious, get an Arkansas stone, do not use water or vegetable oil, EVER. With a little practice....
I know it is not in your target neighborhood - but the folks at Market Meats in Eastern Market do a nice job.
the williams-sonoma store in tysons has a knife sharpener come every month. call for details, but i think it is the last (first?) friday of the month.
there a w-s in bethesda, and i'd call there:
North Bethesda
White Flint Mall
11301 Rockville Pike 1st Floor
Williams-Sonoma # 557
North Bethesda, MD, 20895
Phone: (301) 468-6156
re: alkapal
Williiams-Sonoma does a good job, but if I remember correctly, it is quite expensive.
re: jllc30
it was $1 per inch.
re: alkapal
It's on the more expensive side, yes.
re: DanielK
That's because it's the gong rate everywhere - the "everyone else charges that" syndrome. It's not any easier or faster to sharpen a 3 inch blade than a 10 inch blade. They should charge by the material and type of blade, but the customer can measure inches.
I can keep my pocket knife and woodworking tools pretty sharp myself, but my kitchen knives seem to get duller quicker than I expect when I sharpen them than One of these days I'm goimg to try a professional sharpening.
The Strosniders right in Bethesda does a great job sharpening knives. They turn them around in a few days.
I get my knives sharpened at the 17th Street True Value Hardware store in Dupont. They do a great job and are usually pretty fast. I got my chef's knife sharpened this weekend and I think it cost less than $5.
If they use and automatic knife sharpener, it will eventually ruin your knives. I ship all of my knives to Korin in NYC where they have a Japanese knife master sharpen them by hand. www.korin.com
re: dcvino1972
How much does that cost?
re: Elyssa
I believe Korin charges $15 a knife but IMO that is very reasonable if you have really good knives. Give them a call. They are very nice and helpful.
re: dcvino1972
$15 for Western knives, $25 for Japanese knives. Plus shipping both ways. And you're without your knife for a week or two.
Yes, Korin does a better job, and will make my knife last longer. But if the knife is worth $100, and it costs me $20 more to use Korin each time...
re: DanielK
I agree with you. My Japanese knife cost significantly more than $100 so it is well worth the price and time without my knife to me. If I only spent $100 on a knife, I would take it to a local place.
re: dcvino1972
I agree! If you have good knives, than you need someone who really know how to take care of them. Most companies just run it though a sharpening wheel quickly and call it sharpened. Even if it is sharper, the edge retention is terrible and it doesn't hold the edge at all.
re: ClevelandDave
I've used this place up right by I-95 and I-695. They provide a service to commercial operations where they rent knifes. So I think the deal is they will drop off a set of sharp knives and then pick up the dull ones and sharpen then.
Point is, they have a shop with all kinds of big wheels / wet stones, whatever...I've had great luck with all my steel. They did break a ceramic knife but made good on it. Sorry I don't recall the rates but it is very low, like $3 each, and they will do it as you wait. You may not want to take Shin till talking with them. But anything German or main line they know how to do it without harm.
Martello Knife Service
re: Smokeater55
I was told that there is a lady who does a sharpening business from a truck at the Bethesda farmers market (or it could be the coop market on Wisc) every Sunday. I haven't stopped to check it out, but am curious. Does anyone know about this? She also is supposed to park in front of the W-S on some sort of schedule..
I have posted this before --- look up Truhone.com. $3.00 per knife (2 or more) and they will turn them around in a day or two. They are a commercial knife sharpening machine co. that has a service for restaurant trades. About 20 years ago I experienced the same thing and took my knives to a well known kitchen store in the mall.... a week and a half later they came back in worse shape than ever (they even over heated them and blued the blades! Tru-hone corrected them! Great service. (the comment of $1.00 per inch? -- that would pay for a handful of good knives to be shipped to FL.)

The Rum Diary was begun in 1959 by then-twenty-two-year-old Hunter S. Thompson. It was his first novel, and he told his friend, the author William Kennedy, that The Rum Diary would "in a twisted way...do for San Juan what Ernest Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises did for Paris." In Paul Kemp, the novel's hero, there are echoes of the young Thompson, who was himself honing his wildly musical writing style as one of the "ill-tempered wandering rabble" on staff at the San Juan Daily News at the time. "I shared a dark suspicion," Kemp says, "that the life we were leading was a lost cause, we were all actors, kidding ourselves along on a senseless odyssey. It was the tension between these two poles -- a restless idealism on one hand and a sense of impending doom on the other -- that kept me going."
The Rum Diary is a brilliantly tangled love story of jealousy, treachery & violent alcoholic lust in the Caribbean boomtown that was San Juan, Puerto Rico, in the late 1950s. "It was a gold rush," says the author. "There were naked people everywhere and we all had credit."
Puerto Rico was an unspoiled tropical paradise in those years -- before Castro, before JFK, before civil rights & moonwalks & flower power & Vietnam & protests & even before drugs -- but the San Juan Daily News was a vortex & a snakepit of all the corrupt new schemes & plots & greedmongers who swarmed in. Paul Kemp, The Rum Diary's narrator, speaks for the unfocused angst of those times: "In a sense I was one of them -- more competent than some and more stable than others -- and in the years that carried that ragged banner I was seldom unemployed. Sometimes I worked for three newspapers at once. I wrote ad copy for new casinos and bowling alleys, I was a consultant for the cockfighting syndicate, an utterly corrupt high-end restaurant critic, a yachting photographer and a routine victim of police brutality. It was a greedy life and I was good at it. I...
Hunter S. Thompson�s books include Fear and Loathing at Rolling Stone, Fear and Loathing in America, Screwjack, Hell�s Angels, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, The Proud Highway, Better Than Sex, and Kingdom of Fear. He died in February 2005.

Il Canne Rosso at the Ferry Building, SF
- jillyju Oct 27, 2009 09:48 PM
I did a quick search and didn't find any posts that gave a detailed report on the food at Il Canne Rosso. Given that, I'd like to report that tonight I enjoyed a quick but transcendant dinner at the small store. I had the porcheta dinner which came with a small salad of micro greens dressed in a lemony dressing and a side of roasted Marquita Farm potatoes with whole cloves of roasted garlic.
For only $12.95 I was given a generous pile of the meat, with lots of crispy pieces of skin scattered on top and a juicy quality that I'm not sure I've ever experienced in a piece of pork. I don't know that I have ever had such delicious pork, anywhere. It was incredibly well-seasoned, every bite was tender, and the skin was a decadent, crispy, fatty delight. I couldn't finish the potatoes and brought most of them home. This is a great deal for the price--at a regular restaurant I could easily imagine being charged at least twice the price. I can't say much else except WOW.
Thanks for posting. I had a really delicious pulled pork sandwich and thought Canne Rosso was a nice addition to the Ferry Building. $9 is a big precious for a sandwich, but a $13 porchetta dinner sounds great!
re: Melanie Wong
Thanks for the spelling help. That might explain why I didn't find much already posted about the place, and why I couldn't locate a place link. I would say this meal more than satisfied my porchetta cravings--for at least the next 24 hrs.
I had a sandwich for lunch from Il Cane Rosso today. It was shredded apple and celery root served open-faced on a toasted baguette with melted Cabot clothbound cheddar cheese, some tender arugula and parsley. Delicious, even considering the $9 price tag. My only complaint was that I prefer parsley more finely chopped - they just sprinkled big leaves on top. And it was a little hard to eat with compostable silverware, but easily eaten out of hand if you don't mind getting dirty. I'll try Il Cane Rosso again occasionally, but it's too expensive to be in my regular lunchtime routine.

re: farmersdaughter
hubby and I had a late lunch here yesterday...even though he hasn't been eating much beef lately, he ordered a brisket sandwich, and it was gone before I could grab a bite. Yes, it was $9 but that is what I pay for a cruddy pre-made sandwich at the only place to eat within two miles of my office (ie college cafeteria,), so by my standards, especially with the view at Cane Rosso, it isn't that pricey. The sandwich came with nothing but pickles, but they were awfully good pickles ( hubby doesn't like pickles so those I got to taste).
I was a bit less hungry and had a kale and bacon soup, which was very tasty though not served truly hot, and a panzanella salad with arugula, tomatoes and basil. The salad was slightly overdressed to my taste, but the tomatoes, from Mariquita Farms, were among the best I've had all year, probably even better than the cherry tomatoes from my garden.
I do wish the selection of non-alcoholic drinks was better: no ice tea, and the only sodas were very pricy ones. I ended up ordering a glass of iced coffee; they made it with Blue bottle coffee, and I was given the entire contents of the press: two full glasses.
Will have to go back to try the porchetta....

Yes, those pickles were really good. But can't make up for not giving me any of the skin. Also, there was a piece of trussing string in the middle of my sandwich that I bit into.
re: Melanie Wong
I do agree that based on your pic, it didn't really appeal...not enough pork fat! :-)
re: susancinsf
For me it wasn't a matter of the fat issue. The meat itself had very good texture and succulence. But I found it very plain, composed to show off the flavor of the pork alone. My sandwich was underseasoned and didn't have the garlic and fennel pop that I associate with traditional porchetta. It didn't need to be traditional, but I would expect a twist to be equally flavorful or otherwise why mess with tradition. I felt this sandwich relied on the garnishes to add the interest. The crust on the toasted roll was too hard and cut into the roof of the mouth.
re: Melanie Wong
I didn't have that experience with the roll today - it looked like I would, but it wasn't as crusty as it looked. There was no underseasoning, but there wasn't any discernible fennel. YPMV
re: Mick Ruthven
I don't really think $9 is that much for a sandwich given the top-notch ingredients and expensive location; and especially given that most people (including me) have no problem paying more for a sandwich at Tartine.
I'm not saying ICR is as good as Tartine, but it's still delicious and worth the money.
re: vulber
I agree that ICR is a good value for what you get. I just can't afford to make $10 lunches a habit. If I could, I would be there a lot more often. As it is, my friend and I liked it so much we thought we'd go back, share a sandwich, but bring some fruit or a salad from home fo fill up on. That would be a pretty nice, balanced meal.
Also, the people at ICR are really really nice. Just thought they deserved a shout out.
Here's my photo of the porchetta sandwich,
It was garnished with some sweet peppers. I didn't really like the combination and felt the roll was too crusty to be used in a sandwich. I agree that the meat is especially succulent and juicy. I had asked for a piece of the skin when I placed my order, but none made it onto my plate.
re: Mick Ruthven
I had the porchetta sandwich today for lunch and enjoyed it. I didn't dissect it, but for me, the meat had the texture at times of of VN bacon, albeit meatier. The egg salad sandwich looked very good.
They also serve Blue Bottle french press, should one not want to wait next door.
Finally got to try the Marin Sun Farms Porchetta Sandwich $9 Fri evening - It's yummy if you like lots of tender pork, pickled cabbage, mizuna (some peppery greens) on warm toasted sourdough roll. It's pretty good size and I finished it all.
Mariquita Farm Cauliflower soup w/ kale & onion relish $6 - it was nice. Very creamy, but no taste of cauliflower for me.
Porchetta sandwich $9 + Cauliflower soup $ = $15 + 1.43 tax = $16.43. Credit cards taken.
FREE Filtered water if you want. Nice. Guy even refilled my water bottle w/ the filtered water from tap.
If you eat there they give you a number to put on your table & will deliver the food to you. Some tables along the side, I think some outside w/ view of the Bay Bridge.
Separate bathrooms next door.
To try next time:
Straus Dairy vanilla soft serve $4.5
At lunch today, I had a lovely brisket sandwich with tomato and parmesan, spinach salad, and a small bag of ....bacon caramel corn. For $3.50 it is as much bacon caramel corn as you would want, and pretty tasty.

This article is a demonstrative study about the problem and size of addiction in western area especially Taif city in Saudi Arabia through applying of international questionnaires guidelines. These questionnaires were used to assess tobacco, alcohol, and narcotics addiction. They were performed on secondary school male students in Taif ,Saudi Arabia, in addition to Roshd and Kafa and population as well. The total sample size for the present study is equal to 2514
The Students' Variables as Predictor of Secondary School Students' Performance in Physics in Ekiti West Local Government Area of Ekiti State, Nigeria was investigated in this study. The study adopted a survey research design of the ex-post facto type. The sample comprised 120 senior secondary school II Physics students drawn from the six secondary schools in Ekiti West Local Government Area of Ekiti state. The instruments used for the study was questionnaire and past academic performance in Physics of the students involved in the study. Two research hypotheses were generated and analysed in the study using Pearson's Moment Correlation and Multiple regression statistical analysis. Among others, the study revealed that: students' variables (study habit, attitude to and interest of students in Physics) are better predictors of students' performance in Physics, while student gender has no influence on students academic performance (is a poor predictor).
Well-organized big data get together in the densely distributed sensor networks is, therefore, a challenging research area. One of the most effective solutions to address this challenge is to utilize the sink node's mobility to facilitate the data gathering. While this technique can reduce energy consumption of the sensor nodes, the use of mobile sink presents additional Challenges such as determining the sink node's trajectory and cluster formation prior to data collection. In this paper, we propose a new mobile sink routing and data gathering method through network clustering based on modified ExpectationMaximization (EM) technique. In addition, we derive an optimal number of clusters to minimize the energy consumption. The effectiveness of our proposal is verified through numerical results.
NANO… one billionth of one and one third of micro ,to be precise 10-9m. Nanotechnology is much discussed these days as a emerging frontier – a realm in which machines operate at scales of billionth a metre. It is actually a multitude of rapidly emerging technologies based upon the scaling down of existing technologies to the next level of precision and miniaturization. In the field of nano technologies researchers are enthusiastic about its potential applications in fields such as energy, medicine, electronics, computing and materials. Of late, one of the emerging aspects dealing Nanotechnology in mechanical field is the internal combustion engine on a nano scale, which we have chosen as our area of interest. Heat engines have evolved from external combustion engines to internal combustion engines and the hot off the block is the nano internal combustion engine.
The study of man-environment relationship has great importance today. Human beings interact with their environment from the early stage of development to modern lives. In the process of this interaction they modify and transform environment. Environment plays determining role in the early stages of development where society essentially adapts itself to the limits laid down by it. As development proceeds onwards, the subservience to it gets progressively reduced and the process of cooperation and interaction begins. Present paper is based on analysis of secondary data published by different sources. Arc viewGIS 10 has been used to construct various kinds of maps in this paper. The natural environment of Zanskar presents a very harsh and fragile system. This region experiences heavy snowfall during winter caused by the western disturbances. Zanskar Tehsil is an underdeveloped area where existing use of natural resources is limited due to the low level of technology
Rice–wheat cropping system is very common in India. It contributes to over 70% of total food grain production in the country with an area of 12 M ha under this cropping system. However, it is estimated that under rice and wheat crops separately the area is 42.31 and 22.98 M ha respectively. Looking to the above facts a study at farmer's field of Ambedkar Nagar district was under taken to evaluate the performance of zero-till seed cum ferti-drill along with other system of wheat seeding. The zero-tillage technique may be adopted successfully for seeding to grow wheat after rice by using zero-till ferti seeddrill (ZTFDS) developed at GBPUA&T, Pantnagar and now manufactured commercial. Although this method of wheat seeding using zero-till seed cum ferti drill is becoming very popular in Haryana and Punjab states but it is not popular in U. P. particularly in central Uttar Pradesh. The zero-tillage sowing was found to be most time saving (88%) and energy efficient (79%)
Wide range of applications and numerous other complexities involved in character recognition (CR) makes it a continuous and open area of research. Feature selection and classification plays major role in achieving higher accuracy for character recognition. In the era of digitization its compelling need to have CR system for regional script. This paper presents analysis of structural features and its classification for consonants of Gujarati script. Each character has certain characteristics which distinguishes it from other characters. Gujarati consonants are analyzed for eight such structural features and on the basis of it characters are categorized into twenty groups. Further Paper proposes decision table to classify characters based on structural features.

Clinical manifestations of lymphatic filariasis depend on the area of lymphatic involvement and the duration of infection. An eight year old child presented with right cervical lymph node. Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) with 22 Gauge needle from the lymph node revealed multiple coiled larvae of Wuchereria bancrofti in a background of reactive lymphoid cells with eosinophils. Diagnosis of right cervical Bancroftian lymphadenopathy was made. The case was followed by excisional biopsy of the lymph node and hence was confirmed histopathologically. We report this case because cervical lymphadenopathy is a rare presentation of filariasis in children.
Leadership style is phenomenon which affects the productivity and quality nursing care. There is a lack of research studies in this area in Sri Lanka. The aim of this study was to examine the nurses' perception about their nurse managers' leadership style. The study sample comprised 160 nurses using simple random sampling. The research instruments were Demographic Data Recording Form and the Perceived Leadership Form Questionnaire. The reliability coefficient of the Perceived Leadership Form Questionnaire was 0.86 and the content validity index of was .91. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Nurses perceived their managers' leadership style as transformational (Mean = 3.35, SD =0.64), and transactional leadership as (Mean = 3.25, SD =0.45). The results of the study showed that nurses perceived their managers' leadership style as transformational. The study provides the opportunity for nurse managers to look into their nursing staff by examining

"Russia's national coach has been appointed - he is Fabio Capello. We wish him success in his new job," Arshavin wrote on his personal website (www.arshavin.eu).
The 31-year-old Arsenal player, widely considered Russia's most influential footballer, could have had inside information into the affairs of the Russian FA (RFU).
However, the Arsenal forward might have jumped the gun announcing Capello's appointment as according to the official RFU line, talks with the 66-year-old Italian will continue next week.
Capello, who quit as England boss in February, came to Moscow on Thursday to meet Sports Minister Vitaly Mutko and acting RFU chief Nikita Simonyan.
Mutko, who described the talks as "productive", said the RFU would name a new coach early next week.
Local media reports on Saturday claimed RFU would hold the final round of negotiations with Capello on Tuesday.

I like how after 3 years of it, we're STILL arguing about final fantasy games and our own personal likes and dislikes regarding how they're approached. The best part of it all is at the end of the day every single one of us will be guaranteed to play XV regardless of how bittered we were or how engrossed and overjoyed by previous installments.
If you say otherwise I will call you a baldfaced liar.
If you say otherwise I will call you a baldfaced liar.
Short and sweet truth here. Wise words sir.
I think its appropriate to note the hallmark of any worthy media is longstanding debate as to its value. Love it or hate it, D is right, it still has us talking now doesn't it? To explore the fact further, I also think there is great value in anything we love or hate enough to examine "why". Final Fantasy has certainly achieved that at the very least.
I think the ultimate truth in all of it for me is that, whether or I love FF or hate it, the franchise is valuable to me and worth experiencing as an enthusiast of the genre. The games are arguably cultural experiences at this point.

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — New federal rules approved Thursday could help save lives at dangerous mines with a pattern of safety violations and put more responsibility on companies to find and fix hazards, the U.S. Department of Labor said.
The changes were first proposed less than a year after the Upper Big Branch mine exploded in April 2010, killing 29 men. It was the worst U.S. coal mine disaster in four decades.
Among other things, the rules let MSHA designate a company a pattern violator without a prior warning. They also eliminate the requirement that MSHA can consider only final orders; previously, the agency could not impose the designation until the operators finished appealing violations, which could take months or years.

|Seattle U steps into void
|Written by Admin
|Monday, 20 October 2008 15:31
Then again, it's rare for a big city to have its civic sporting pride as wounded as Seattle's is right now.
``We're beginning that process of getting back to exciting basketball at KeyArena,'' Seattle Mayor Greg Nickels said on Monday, when he joined Lenny Wilkens and past members - including the captain of the 1958 national finalist team - of Seattle University's basketball heyday in welcoming the Redhawks back to playing home games under the iconic Space Needle.
Seattle could use exciting. Nobody here has seen anything of the sort in the town's sports this year.
-Dates are available for Seattle University to fill at KeyArena because the NBA's SuperSonics moved to Oklahoma City in July after 41 mostly successful years in town.
-The Mariners just finished becoming the first team in the history of Major League Baseball to lose 100 games with a $100 million player payroll.
ashington is 0-7, one of two winless teams among the nation's 119 teams in the Football Championship Subdivision.
-Washington State University has a large alumni base in Seattle. It also has a football team that is 1-7 and hasn't beaten a major college team this season. The toothless Cougars just lost 69-0 to USC, the worst loss in their 104-year history.
-At least there's the NFL's Seahawks ... oh, wait, the four-time division champions are 1-5 and in last place. Their renowned coach on Monday likened them to a misfit high school team he coached in the 1970s in San Francisco.
Seattle U president Father Stephen Sundborg believes his 117-year-old Jesuit school, with 7,600 students on the backside of the Capitol Hill overlooking downtown Seattle, is filling a civic void by returning to Division I after a 29-year hiatus -the Redhawks will play a partial Division I schedule this year.
``The Sonics are a big aspect to this. We didn't pray the Sonics out of town, but this certainly opens up opportunities for us,'' he said, smiling. ``We're looking to make Seattle a real college basketball town.''
He was speaking under a large banner that included an oversized photo of Elgin Baylor in his college uniform of the 1950s posing as if he was about to pass. The Hall of Fame forward is Seattle University's most famous player, and the first of 10 stars from the school who went on to careers in the NBA.
aylor averaged 31 points per game in two seasons and still holds 11 school records. He led the 1957-58 Seattle squad into the NCAA championship game, where it lost to Kentucky.
Mayor Nickels helped settle with the Sonics for an initial $45 million, retiring the debt on KeyArena's remodeling a decade ago. Monday, he was wearing a dark red tie to match the Redhawks' team colors. He recalled how Seattle U sold out the old Seattle Center Coliseum, which KeyArena replaced with a remodeling a decade ago, in the 1960s with 14,000 people watching games against Texas Western and Houston.
That legacy is what Father Sundborg sees as the difference between what Seattle U is starting and what was started decades ago across the state at Gonzaga. The Jesuit school in Spokane is now a national darling, a perennial NCAA tournament team and ruler of the West Coast Conference. Seattle U hopes to be invited into the conference in three to five years.
``We've got a greater tradition than Gonzaga had,'' Sundborg said of the school to which his is most compared out here. ``That's what allows us to make this quick leap forward. Imagine if we didn't have that tradition. People would ask, 'Why are you doing this? Where are you going? How is it going to work?'
``We're different. This is a big city. The facility, KeyArena, is something else.''
ena has become a draw for recruits.
To create a more intimate and loud setting, the school is going to drape off about 10,000 seats in the upper seating bowl, as the WNBA's Storm do, for its first game at KeyArena Jan. 1 against Loyola Marymount - the same team against which it played its last game in Division I in 1980. By the 2009-10 season and beyond, when they play a full Division I schedule and expect to host Fresno State among others, the Redhawks hope to use the entire seating capacity of 17,000-plus.
The road schedule for next season includes Marquette, Utah and Oklahoma State. And the RedHawks are about to complete a five-year agreement with the University of Washington to play three games on the Huskies' homecourt across town and two at KeyArena to create a Division I intercity college rivalry. There are also plans to play in tournaments soon with Gonzaga and Washington State.
All because the Sonics wanted a new palace, then left when they didn't get one.
Seattle U coach Joe Callero is thrilled to pick up where the Sonics left.
``Now, we are the big time,'' he said.
