EFFICIENT ORGANIZATION OF SEMANTIC DATABASES
Naphtali D. Rishe
Professor
School of Computer Science
Florida International University

ABSTRACT 
This talk presents a highly-efficient file structure for the
storage of semantic databases.  A low-level access language 
is presented, such that an arbitrary query can be performed 
as one or several elementary queries of the language.  Most 
elementary queries, including such non-trivial queries as 
range queries and others, can be performed in just one single 
access to the disk.

This talk is based on the paper:
N. Rishe.  ``A File Structure for Semantic Databases.''  
Information Systems, 16, 4, pp.  375-385.
	     
Background on semantic database models will be given in the
beginning of the talk.  More background details can be found in:

         The AIDS Research Immuno-Enhancement Study #2
           Session One: February 26 - March 1, 1993
                Session Two: May 28 - 31, 1993
              Session Three: August 27 - 30, 1993

The Institute of HeartMath is a non-profit educational and 
research organization located in Boulder Creek, CA. HeartMath 
is a process of self-empowerment, mental and emotional self-
management, that has been researched, proven out and 
practiced for more than a decade and is taught in seminar 
format. This study will research the effectiveness of the 
HeartMath system in enhancing immune system function and 
improving the quality of life. Participants will receive 
techniques for self-maintenance of a healthier immune system. 
Guidance will be provided for physical, emotional, mental, 
and spiritual self-healing and well-being. The Institute has 
several projects under way to research the beneficial effects 
that self-generated feelings of love, care and appreciation 
have on the immune system. Your participation will help you 
to:

* Integrate your heart with your mind and emotions to produce
  more balanced and efficient actions and reactions
* Access intuitive intelligence with reliability, not just in
  flashes
* Learn how to listen to and follow your heart
* Empower your system on physical, mental, emotional and
  spiritual levels
* Achieve coherence of your cardio-electricities, resulting
  in inner peace and harmony on all levels

HeartMath researchers have been able to measure, record and 
correlate the human electrical system to different mental and 
emotional states. The research has shown that when 
individuals self-manage their mental and emotional energies, 
it beneficially affects their heart and brain electricities 
which in turn affects hormonal secretions and their 
perceptions of life. The Institute is also involved with the 
development of tonal patterns that appear to harmonically 
link with the DNA to enhance T-cell strength in people with 
AIDS and other immune disorders.

The work of the Institute and its founder, Doc Lew Childre, 
was described in a half-page article in 1/6/93 issue of USA 
Today.

If you would like to participate in Study #2, please call the 
Institute to obtain an application which is due by February 
17, 1993. For more information, call Wendy Rickert or 
Euphrasia Carroll at (408)-338-8700. (Participants must make 
a commitment to attend all three sessions.)

I would normally suggest Fragrant Vegetable on Wilshire near Barrington.
But, is it still around?  

I went to the Fragrant Vegetalbe in Monterey Park yesterday and discovered
that it was closed down.  What a pity!  Although this one stopped serving
exclusive vegetarian food a while ago, their dishes were much more flavorful
that the one in the westside.

A Starbucks just opened here in Pasadena, at the corner of Lake and
California.  The place has been packed since it opened a couple of weeks
ago, which says a lot considering the number of coffee places that are
currently open in the Pasadena area (Aux Delice, Old Town Bakery,
Pasadena Baking Co., Equator, the Espresso Bar, etc.)  They also 
sell granola, cookies, and pastries; they get most of this stuff from
the Old Town Bakery, so if parking seems too difficult in Old Town, you 
can now go by Starbuck's for your sugar fix.  I am currently
addicted to their Cafe Latte and am wondering about quiting software to
open up my own Starbuck's franchise.

 Subject: Restaurant Review
 
 I used to live two blocks from Renu whatever, the Thai restaurant in Norwalk
 that got good reviews from the Times.  I lived there for three years, ate 
 there once.  I'm afraid my wife and I did not get the delicacies spoken
 of in the review, opting instead for the usual lemon grass soup and pot thai.
 (We went before the review was published - about two years ago)
 I, being a white boy from Indiana thought the food very good.
 My wife, who has frequented many more asian restaurants than I was only
 mildly impressed - she thought the food was good but somewhat expensive for
 the portions we received.  I'm afraid that was about all I remember. 
 My recommendation - You only live once, and you, not any food critic, will be
 the only one to ever make the proper decision on any restaurant - if you are
 down this way then eat there and satisfy your curiosity.
 
 Renu whatever is found by exiting the 5 southbound on Rosecrans, heading
 East on Rosecrans approximately three blocks in an older minimall-type
 building on your left, just before you get to a small dairy with a cow on the
 roof (between Shoemaker and Carmenita being the closest major streets)

Don't forget Cleo & Cucci and Highland Grounds.  HG is much the quietest
place to go for good coffee--it's a little out of the way (on Los Robles
next to the Fuller Seminary bookstore), so it doesn't get the Old Town crowds.
They have very good shortbread, BTW.

I don't know if this is a recommendation, or another contribution to the
nostalgia thread, but what about the Windsor, on 7th or 8th just east of
Normandie? It was great in the late 70s.

I used to enjoy a steak at the Bull and Bush, on 6th west? of Normandie. Has
it faded away, too?

the fv in monterey park as i understand it began serving flesh.  definitely
not a place i would go.  

the one on wilshire remains as always almost pure vegan.  and the food is
spectacular.

I have been there once and my kids (12 & 7) have been there once
(seperately). They seemed to enjoy it much more than I did. When I was
there, the place was packed (weeknight). While the majority of the crowd
seemed to be involved in the action, about 70%, the rest of us just sat
there like we were watching television during dinner. The players were
doing there best to get everyone envolved but it just wasn't happening.
There were also some players (King & Queen) trying to get their lines
heard above the rumble of the crowd but were unsuccessful.

The food was moderately good, started with a beef-based soup that I
didn't finish. Then the main course was Cornish Game Hen. It was tasteful
but difficult to eat without utensils. Drink was hard to come by. The
price of admission includes 2 drink refils and a charge after that. The
wenches come by regularily and try to sell you something or another. 

I think one visit is enough. Go when you have a coupon. It is not worth
full price, which I believe is at about $40 per person.

I don't know if Wild Bills is the same or not.

        The orginal poster wanted veggie restaurants on the Westside,
        but while we're already in Monterey Park...

        Chameli is an all-vegetarian restuarant in Rosemead.

Hi, 

Can anyone recommend a good Korean BBQ restaurant in the Pasadena/Glendale area?
I refer one that has gas stove at the table and one can cook the meat oneself.

Thanks

I went to Cafe Katsu last Tuesday evening on the recommendations of
several people.  It is on Sawtelle in West L.A. between Olympic and
Santa Monica.

My companion and I were seated at 7 pm, per the reservation.  The
restaurant was about half full at that point (there are about 10-12
tables altogether).  The hostess seemed particularly quiet, bordering
on impolite, but she seated the two of us at a table for four in the
back, which suited me fine.  

We waited 10 minutes before the hostess asked if we wanted anything to
drink.  I ordered a Pelligrino...I was informed the supply was
exhausted.  I ordered the Calistoga Lemonade; my date had the regular
water (which is filtered, according to the menu).

Another 15 minutes went by before the waiter arrived at our table to
inform us of the special and take our orders.  This felt like a very
long time.  Monkfish with angelhair pasta and a lobster sauce with
shrimp was the special, which we both ordered.  There were at least 2
other fish selections on the menu, which made me happy as I don't eat
meat.  

The food showed up about 5 minutes later --fast! made me suspect
microwaving, but the texture did not bespeak 'waving, and the plates
were very hot ( and I think that usually means *not* 'waved ).  The
fish was excellent, the pasta very good, and the sauce very tasty.
Portions were copious; neither of us could finish our orders, this
without having eaten any appetizers.  The bread was very unremarkable,
thinly sliced baguette that could have been from the supermarket, and
definitely microwaved --the texture was quite spongy.  I think the
microwaving of bread should be outlawed.

With tip, I spent $52.00.

This was a first date, and one of my criteria for the restaurant was a
quiet atmosphere; Katsu was so noisy when it filled up (at about 7:30)
that we could not hear one another in normal conversation, though we
were sitting fairly close to each other.  I much prefer a quiet
atmosphere while dining, and abhor the trend toward noisier ambience
and hard-surface decorating that defines a current, trendy restaurant
nowadays.

Oh well.  The fish was quite good, just everything else was not.  She
did agree to see me again, and I will attempt to cook dinner (a very
great risk).

take his advise. go before 11. but if you go to NBC, you MUST
go before 11. Parking there was horrible, the last time I went. 
And it was around 11:45. Just couldn't find _any_ parking.
