Today is National Roof Over Your Head Day
2010-12-03 19:55:00
This reminds me of a story I covered when I first moved to Chicago.  On a January night in 2009, from 8PM to well past midnight, I went around the city with two people from the Department of Family and Support Services and literally counted the number of homeless people.  It was for HUD's 'Point in Time' count, where cities are required every two years to count the number of homeless people on a given night. We went to train stations and parks and under highways and asked people who were sleeping under blankets and cardboard boxes if they wanted to go to a shelter.  None of them said yes.  Back in the car, the number of people that were...
'Fiddler on the Roof' writer Stein, 98, dies in NY (AP)

Bomb shots get classy at Roof
2010-06-24 21:56:00
When I think about cocktailing at Roof, it's fruity mojitos, bottles of bubbly and the occasional bottled beer that comes to mind. Bombs? Not so much. But apparently there's a demand for drinks that go down a little quicker. "Our clientele likes to do shots come sundown," says bartender Tony Potempa, a finalist in our Best Bartender competition last year. And that's the story of why you'll find two bomb shots on the summer menu. The    Hummingbomb takes Adam Seger's hibiscus-cardamom-kaffir lime spirit and pairs it with Stoli Citron and sugar-free Red Bull. The Roofie pairs Fernet Branca (read more about the herbal liqueur here) with ginger beer as a sort of Jager bomb alternative. Each will set you back...

Oprah's interior designer sues over leaky roof

Oprah Winfrey's featured design expert, Nate Berkus, has had a leaky roof in his office for over two years and is now suing.   Nate Berkus Associates filed a lawsuit today against a roofing and construction company, alleging that water leakage problems dating back to 2007 have still not been properly addressed.    Berkus says that, after defendants recaulked the area, it still continued to leak. In response to further complaints by Berkus, the defendants presented a bid and work proposal for reconstruction of the work they were originally retained to perform, the complaint states.   Read the complaint after the jump.   Follow me on Twitter at jenfernicola.    ...

Chicagoans plunge from hotel roof for lung health
2009-10-26 21:11:00
By Alexia Elejalde-Ruiz RedEye -Lauren LaViola, a 27-year-old administrative assistant who lives in Lincoln Park, said she's always been terrified of heights. But as she prepared Sunday to rappel 27 stories down the front of The Wit hotel in the name of lung health, LaViola's fears gave way to thoughts of her father, who died of lung cancer two months ago. "I'm a little nervous," LaViola said quietly, clutching her harness, moments before she stepped out onto the hotel roof downtown. "But I'm OK. I'm just not going to look down." LaViola was among 80 people who rappelled 27 stories from the roof of The Wit hotel Sunday to raise money for the Respiratory Healthhttp://www.chicagonow.com-/cgi-bin/mt/mt.cgi?__mode=view&-amp;_type=entry&id=27262&am-p;blog_id=6 Association of Metropolitan Chicago.

Hiking to the roof of Phuket!
2009-09-06 07:47:00
Hiking is not a popular activity in Phuket. Yes, you have places where people go to exercise such as Suan Luang Park or Bang Wad Reservoir, but in general Phuket is not a hikers paradise. There are few footpaths, too much land is privately owned and .. it's really really hot most of the time!I had never given much thought to hiking up the hills in Phuket. Most of the big hills are accesible by road anyway (Buddha Mountain and Radar Hill for example), although I have been thinking of a hike up Buddha mountain for a while since a friend told me you can hike it from Karon Beach. I got more interested when I read a blog by an American expat who lives in Phuket. Glenn used to do lots of long distance hikes, and has been exploring the trails in the hills in Phuket. There are in fact more than I realised, many used by rubber plantation workers. Rubber is still big business here, most of the bigger hills are covered in rubber trees. Glenn has been working on a "High Trail" through Phuket, ...

Since then, they have been working their way through each vehicle segment, and posting the results about which car, truck or minivan provided the most protection. In a recent set of tests conducted on the small car segment, the number one choice came as a surprise to more than a few.

IIHS Begins Testing Roof Rollover Strength to Improve Safety for New Vehicl
2009-03-28 01:02:00
Safety is becoming one of the most important selling points for pretty much every vehicle, with a special emphasis being put on Sport Utility Vehicles. The reason for this is the higher risk of rollover and the huge increase in fatalities due to rollovers in SUV as compared to sedans and coupes. It was this same statistic that led the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) to begin a new kind of testing on vehicles.

Don't Let Things Grow On Your Roof!
2009-02-18 23:22:00
Winter is a great time for dirt, leaves, and other debris to pile up in your rain gutters. Leave it long enough and there will be buildup. Leave it a really long time and those bits of dust, plantlife and other things will mush together and decompose, eventually becoming plant-worthy soil. Add a few seeds and some rain, and before you know it, green sprouts are popping up on your roof. Today I passed a home in Los Gatos in which this seems to have happened. Grass and weeds were sprouting out of the rain gutters and had crept onto the roof quite a few inches. Why is this a problem? Because the more you grow things on the roof, the more moisture you have getting trapped up there and the faster the roof decomposes. You don't want things like fungus and dry rot to munch away at your home, but having plants grow on your roof is going to lead to exactly that. Keep your gutters clean so problems like this do not have a chance to start. It is i...

Something hit the roof -- like a rubber ball
2008-12-24 13:00:00
Sunday Gazette-MailCharleston, WVDec 22, 1968Fayetteville-- Their search has dragged on for 23 years, but George & Jeannie Sodder will never believe five of their children burned to death in that Christmas morning fire of 1945.A weather-scarred billboard on a lonely WV road offers $10,000 for information leading to the five, regarded as lost in the fire that leveled the Sodder home in minutes.The undying hope that the two boys and three girls still are alive has taken the Sodders to a Mexican border town and a Spanish hamlet in Florida. But always frustration: nothing.For nearly two decades, this billboard stood at the site of the Sodder house fire. It showed photos of the missing Sodder children and offered a $5,000 reward for information leading to their recovery. Still, after all these years, the Sodders receive letters, photographs and telephone calls from persons across the country, from those who say they saw the children.Authorities in this small coal mining community snuggl...
on the roof of the world
2008-12-24 10:18:00
I have been reading Alain De Botton?s ?The Art of Travel?, which features a graphic of the view from an jet airplane window, on its cover. (I?m fairly certain it is a mock up rather than a true photo mainly because there is no internal reflection). The image is accurate in that it shows the interesting phenomena of a very dark sky above the horizon, when view from the upper atmosphere, because the air above is very rarified and has little moisture thus little backscatter of light. Taken over the great barrier reef, about 20 minutes out from cairns. (note the reflection of my shirt in the lower part of the image)
