Is there an app (Preferrably portable) out there to search a file using a dictionary list as a source?

Almost nothing is as amusing to a cat lover than a funny picture of a cat. I don't know of any cat who sets out to be funny. They just somehow manage to do so, by what I call "cats being cats," and a cat trying to be serious can be very funny, indeed.
About.com has made it possible for you to upload your own funniest cat photo to share with our readers, with an easy to use online form.
After you've seen other readers photos, submit your own to see if your cat can beat their cats in the funny cat picture quotient.

Consistent with previous notes, Joy's wines never disappoint. Wonderful pairing with grill seared tuna, duck liver pâté, whiskey cheddar, & manchego cheese.
This wine just keeps getting better, and going to be sad when we finish the last bottles. Love the nose and the dark fruity spice notes it provides. A true to character PS of dark blueberry and mild spice. Fully and perfectly integrated at this point, with mild tannins. Does not need decanting, but a little air before drinking is still a good idea.
Opened almost an hour before dinner, poured through Vinturi. Wonderfully integrated, although peppery spice was a bit much at first. Probably could use at least a few more years to fully balance out. My other bottle will sit in the cellar for minimum 5-10 years more. I enjoy every one of Peter's wines that I have opened.

It's the classy way to do it.
You can be a little excited about this. I SAID A LITTLE!
Dude, just buy a commemorative sweatshirt or something.
I wish they would just take the plot of 'Reality Bites', and remake it with superheroes.
Man, the networks are going to butcher this when they air it.
Watch your favorite celebrities trying to make that dollar.
The 'Fresh Prince' uncle was 68.
Pay attention, Jeremy Lin.
You can just assume your favorite shows are getting the axe.
I just call it "the sequel" because I don't want to type "Smaug."
Sadly, it doesn't involve him stranded on an island.
I have under 48 hours to make my wife watch 'Back To School'.
The more people want to talk about 'Duck Dynasty', the more it makes me want to shut down and be harder to reach, like Matt Damon in 'Good Will Hunting'.
It's "Jonathan" Utah now.
It's what Paul would have wanted. According to Vin Diesel.
Santa's hearing funny things out here. Funny things.
If there's one thing that kids love, it's a whoddunit.
This mystery person is doing God's work.
It looks like she's coming out for a boxing match.
Is it 1995? Will there be an Aerosmith ballad on the soundtrack?
I'm sure free speech would have been taught at the VIce Presidential Boot Camp, had she gotten the nod.
Go f*ck yourself, America.
'Avengers 3′ is going to be the most sarcastic film ever.
Perfect for the fire enthusiast on your list.
It's not intentional, their tickets are just really expensive.
In legal parlance, it's what's known as a "big time" lawsuit.

Judge Joe Brown: Off Duty.....
by Delyte Delyte
posted Aug 28 2013 1:30PM
At some point in this past week, a video surface online showing 66 year old, Judge Joe Brown in an intoxicated state in front of a group of people. The video,taken in California shows the Judge going off on a tangent and saying "I don't do THAT BS no anymore" when asked about his former job on tv!
Here's the Clip:
He had been on television for a while and never got caught up in any scandal. Why should him being a regular citizen and not being belligerent cause any kind of issue??

Grown-ups and children don't see the world in the same way. Turns out, that's not the only thing they see from different points of view.
An 18-year-old mother has been arrested after a photo surfaced on Facebook showing her 14-month-old dangling from a planter hook.
Some kids just love mugging for the camera.
Bill Michaels, a radio personality in Davenport, Iowa, decided to conduct a little Halloween experiment. Instead of answering his front door for each and every trick-or-treater, he set an 'honor bowl' full of candy on his front porch with a sign that read: "Take One, Please."
The video attempts to educate adults and promote anti-sexism, but the message is lost on many who say the ad goes too far by exploiting young girls instead of empowering them.
If the children are indeed our future, then be prepared to be afraid. Very afraid.

Parenting is no easy job. Aside from the ever-exhausting feeding, bathing and chasing after the little rugrats, there's also the whole other matter of listening to the wonderful comments they make.
We all know the weather is a great topic of conversation, but who knew it could cause such dissension?

Women who got phone counseling ate more veggies and fiber, less fat, study found
THURSDAY, Sept. 20 (HealthDay News) -- Could better nutrition and diet be as close as a helpful phone call away?
A new study found that women who received telephone counseling about healthy eating habits wound up consuming more vegetables, fruits and fiber and less fat, suggesting that a support system can pay big rewards for people looking to improve their eating habits.
"With proper support, you can make a major change in your diet," said Cheryl Rock, professor of nutrition at the University of California, San Diego, and a study co-author. "A lot of people think it's an insurmountable task. But this study shows that yes, indeed, you can make a big change."
The study is published in the October issue of The Journal of Nutrition.
Rock and her colleagues randomly assigned 3,088 women, all at risk for a recurrence of breast cancer, to either a telephone counseling group or another group that didn't get the phone counseling. The phone counseling group also received newsletters talking about healthy eating and cooking classes. The women were encouraged to use recipes to help them meet their goals for more fruits, vegetables and fiber, and less fat.
The "control" -- or comparison -- group got printed materials about healthy diets and were offered cooking classes, but the themes weren't related to boosting intake of vegetables, fruit and fiber and decreasing fat.
Both groups ate fairly healthful diets at the start of the four-year study. Both ate seven vegetable and fruit servings a day, 21 grams a day of fiber and got 28.7 percent of energy from fat.
Under the 2005 Dietary Guidelines for Americans, those on a 2,000-calorie-a-day diet are advised to eat nine servings of fruits and vegetables a day, 28 grams of fiber, and to keep total fat to 20 percent to 35 percent of calories, most of the fat

I have my main gui class with some subclassess. There are +- 3 threads that are collecting data from various internet sources and API gateways etc.
Now, out of one of these threads, I want to run a webbrowser control, so I can add some autobrowsing functionality to my program. Each of the sub threads should be capable of opening a webbrowser on its own. So I created a second c# windows form, which contains only the webbrowsing control.
I already use the ApartmentState.STA setting on this new thread for the webbrowser control. However, the form2 is unresponsive.
I tried to call Application.Run(); from this thread, and this makes the webbrowser/form2 responsive. But then my main thread stops running.
So I'm a bit unsure on how to proceed. Is what I want possible at all ?

Return to RIU Palace Mexico
We just returned from a visit to the RIU Palace Mexico. The renovations result in vast improvements especially in the outdoor areas, pools and restaurants.
The 4 pools separated by function with the largest heated serve well. It was nice to have
the bar pool totally separated from the area where balls are thrown and children play. The lunch restaurant is huge with a plethora of choices. If you arrive as they open you can have a very nice ocean front table and service is fabulous. The additional dinner restaurants were most welcome. We enjoyed the new Italian the best. They served a stuffed chicken breast that was better than you could get at most restaurants and kudos to their grouper and plentiful tuna appetizer at the Oriental. Also, bottles of wine served at the Krystal were a nice touch. All of the food was excellent and every restaurant employed a unique method of demonstrating personalized and attentive service.
The staff was the very best at simply wanting to please. Congratulations to all but especially Yamir, Marieley, Elena, Nando, Daniel, Abraham and German! They made our vacation week very special. Also, take the time to introduce yourself to the assistant manager Ildiko Polgar. She was extremely accommodating granting us the best room she could and on the upper floor as we had requested. Lastly, do not miss David. He plays piano every Monday through Friday in the lobby before and immediately after dinner. Even if you are not a piano bar fan, you will enjoy his varied and entertaining selections.
The beach, pools, ocean water, location and access to the other 4 RIU hotels complete the reason why this hotel is the best overall in the area. The staff at the RIU Palace Mexico made this a particularly wonderful vacation leaving us no choice but to plan a prompt return.
Area of possible improvement
We had an excellent experience at this hotel. It would be nice if they could provide a more private hospitality suite. At least refrain from having the employees use the suite for their bathroom needs.
Great Week in PDC
Just got back from a week at the RIU Mexico in PDC. We found the hotel to be a great value for us. We are 2 ~25ish professionals.
amazing location
access to 4 other RIU PDC resorts
nice friendly staff
good breakfast & lunch
nice coffee bar
(not found at other RIU in area)
were not many other folks our age at resort. Mostly families and older couples
in-resort bars: pretty dead, watered down mixed drinks (to be expected at all-inclusive), poor beer selection
restaurants: very small, difficult to get a reservation, small menus, not much variety
had to report ants in our room numerous times
water stopped working in room for about an hour
Overall - I would stay at RIU Mexico again due to its great value. We really used the hotel as a launching point for 5th avenue which we went to almost every night.
Check out Ula Gula on 5th avenue for some of the best food in PDC!
It was great
Overall a great experience. Check the weather for the months you book in order to make sure there is no rain/storm.
Great place to visit
First of all the beach was one of the best we've ever been too, food was good but not great, staff was extremely helpful, shows a bit corny and not that great. We had a lot of rain and there were a few leaks in the building. Modern décor is not
our style. Showers were awesome Water closet too small though. Over all a good value for the $'s.
Great for the money!
The hotel was great for the $, and I'm a picky traveller! Big rooms, beautiful resort, great food, always somebody looking to hand you a drink, super-friendly staff! Only complaints were: The bed was very hard and stiff; plus, we asked for 2
double-beds b/c we were traveling as a couple + 1 friend - the 2 double-beds were pushed together like they were one bed. And regarding dinner: the dress code is strictly enforced, so men must wear long pants at all restuarants except dinner buffet; my husband didn't have dress pants b/c the temp was 100+ for our entire stay, so he got by wearing his CK pajama pants - good trick! Plus, had to make dinner reservations in-person by going to the theater each day; didn't like that. But overall, great vacation, great price! P.S. Note that tops were optional for ladies around the pool and on the beach, so be cognizant if you're thinking of taking kids; this wasn't a resort geared towards kids, anyway, so don't bring them - everyone here was adult.
The resort set-up shopping vendors at the hotel a couple of times a week; the t-shirt vendors were a rip-off. BUT NOTE: The artisan vendors at the hotel were GREAT bargains! So DO buy from the artists at the hotel, but not the t-shirt vendors. For $5, take a 5-minute cab ride up to the main downtown Playa Del Carmen area where you can get cheesey tourist stuff like mass-produced "art" and t-shirts from big drug store-looking shops for great prices.
Nice hotel lots of food
The hotel is nice, a very nice lobby, there are a few hotels that you can also visit and use with the same pass, so over all there are lots of amenities. There are lots of food, many restaurants and over all it's good value, I can not say that the
restaurants are gourmet, mainly is a lot of food, decent quality but you can not expect to be amazed by the food, For me I feel this is the last time I use an all inclusive as I prefer to eat less but to enjoy a better quality restaurant. so if you are very special with food, this is not for you, if you have kids and want to forget about paying all the time and leave them go freely around the place this is a very good choice to enjoy a good holiday at a good value. so over all, I give 4 out of 5 of what I was expecting.
The Japanese was not so good, but I heard the steak house was better even I did not have the chance to eat there.
A great all inclusive
Our second trip to RPM...and it remains one of our favorite AI's. We love the location in Playacar....there are numerous resorts close by that you can venture into and compare. Playa de Carmen is only a $5 taxi. The shows at the resort, the
entertainment staff, and the pool are OK or pretty good. The beach and food are excellent. The guests are terrific. On both trips we managed to meet the most interesting guests.
Best of all the RIUs in the area
This hotel truly is a "palace" and makes you feel like you've arrived in paradise. Our favorite parts were the beautiful ocean water, the beach bar, the swim-up pool bar, and the specialty restaurants.
The only negatives were the lack of decent
entertainment (always a bit of an issue with RIU properties) and the sometimes "wet dog" smell of our room after it was made up. For the most part, that wasn't a big issue since we spent most of the day at the pool and ocean.
No need to go out to eat EVER when staying here...plenty of food in the specialty restaurants and if you just want casual the buffet is great too.

New Google feature poised to add area businessesBy Gordon Dritschilo
Staff Writer | October 23,2012People around the world might soon be able to poke their heads into Rutland stores without leaving home.
A Google contractor will spend November in the Rutland-Killington area adding local businesses to the indoors feature of Google Maps street view.
Google Maps allows a user to search for maps and overlay them on satellite images. Zoom in close enough and Google switches to street view, a panoramic, street-level photograph of the area. While not all of Rutland is visible in street view, downtown is.
Indoors takes a viewer, well, indoors.
We take where the street view left off, contractor Jim Hilker said. It gives them a whole new level of exposure and Google presence. Its not just street view maps its attached to their Google search. ... People can tap that and be transported right into the business and look around.
Hilker said he was taking photos in Burlington last week. He said he did not know the number of businesses nationwide that had signed up, but believed it was at least 10,000.
Its pretty much up and running all over the U.S. and Canada and New Zealand and France and England, he said. We just went public May 1, even though all of these countries have integrated it to some degree.
Joining indoors costs a small one-time fee after which it is permanently in the Google servers, though updated photos can be purchased. Hilker would not say how much the fee is.
Theres a base fee and then it varies depending on the size of the business, he said. Its a small fee I tell people its less than the cost of a typical newspaper ad.
Business owners must sign up in advance, which they can do at www.streetviewindoors.com.
Rutland Region Chamber of Commerce Executive Vice President Thomas Donahue was not aware of the program when asked about it last week, but was enthusiastic after reading up on it.
It seems like a great idea obviously more advantageous to some than others but I think it could be advantageous to many, he said. Online is where its at these days.
Donahue said the more tourism-related business like hotels and restaurants would be the most obvious candidates.
Obviously, if you walk into a bank, you know what its supposed to look like, he said. From a personal standpoint, gymnasiums would be great, fitness centers. People are intimidated walking through that door for the first time. If you can look at it online and decide if its for you first, its easier to go.

Asymptotic estimates of multi-dimensional stable densities and their applications
Abstract | References | Similar Articles | Additional Information
Abstract: The relation between the upper and lower asymptotic estimates of the density and the fractal dimensions on the sphere of the spectral measure for a multivariate stable distribution is discussed. In particular, the problem and the conjecture on the asymptotic estimates of multivariate stable densities in the work of Pruitt and Taylor in 1969 are solved. The proper asymptotic orders of the stable densities in the case where the spectral measure is absolutely continuous on the sphere, or discrete with the support being a finite set, or a mixture of such cases are obtained. Those results are applied to the moment of the last exit time from a ball and the Spitzer type limit theorem involving capacity for a multi-dimensional transient stable process.

Après Vous ...
2.05pm, 12.20am, Sky Movies Indie
(Pierre Salvadori, 2003) For Daniel Auteuil's Antoine, maitre d' at a swanky Paris brasserie, it's not enough to save dismal Louis (José Garcia) from suicide: he then invites him home and tries to sort out his disastrous work/love/family life, too. It never amounts to quite the hilarious farce it wants to be, but there's fun when Antoine instals Louis as a (useless) sommelier at his restaurant.
Where the Sidewalk Ends
2.50pm, Film4
(Otto Preminger, 1950) Preminger reunites his stars from Laura - Dana Andrews and Gene Tierney - in another stylish, off-beat noir thriller. This has Andrews as a violent cop who beats a suspect to death, then concocts increasingly desperate plans to save himself and sweetheart Tierney. Andrews was rarely strung out so far from his dull, deadpan good-guys.
10.30pm, Sky Movies Premiere
(Hans Horn, 2006) Also known as Open Water 2, this tale of peril at sea lacks the near-profound depths of the original, which had a man and woman abandoned in the ocean, at the mercy of implacable nature. This one has six young people basically victims of stupidity when they dive off their yacht, forgetting to lower the boarding ladder first. Still, it builds a fair swell of tension as the full horror of their situation slowly dawns.

Product description
Thirteen-year-old Agostino is spending the summer at a Tuscan seaside resort with his beautiful widowed mother. When she takes up with a cocksure new companion, Agostino, feeling ignored and unloved, begins hanging around with a group of local young toughs. Though repelled by their squalor and brutality, and repeatedly humiliated for his weakness and ignorance when it comes to women and sex, the boy is increasingly, masochistically drawn to the gang and its rough games. He finds himself unable to make sense of his troubled feelings. Hoping to be full of manly calm, he is instead beset by guilty curiosity and an urgent desire to sever, at any cost, the thread of troubled sensuality that binds him to his mother. Alberto Moravia's classic, startling portrait of innocence lost was written in 1942 but rejected by Fascist censors and not published until 1944, when it became a best seller and secured the author the first literary prize of his career. Revived here in a new translation by Michael F. Moore, "Agostino "is poised to captivate a twenty-first-century audience.

Author information
Alberto Moravia (1907-1990), the child of a wealthy family, was raised at home because of illness. He published his first novel, "The Time of Indifference," at the age of twenty-three. Banned from publishing under Mussolini, he emerged after World War II as one of the most admired and influential of twentieth-century Italian writers. In addition to "Agostino," New York Review Classics publishes Moravia's novels "Boredom" and "Contempt." Michael F. Moore is the chair of the PEN/Heim translation fund. His translations from the Italian include, most recently, "Live Bait" by Fabio Genovesi, "The Drowned" and "The Saved" by Primo Levi, and "Quiet Chaos" by Sandro Veronesi. He is currently working on a new translation of the nineteenth-century classic "The Betrothed" by Alessandro Manzoni.
Review quote
..".this dreamy, haunting study of a young boy's painful initiation into sexual consciousness is so psychologically rich and vividly imagined--in Moore's plangent translation--that it resembles a painting as much as a novella...Like the best of NYRB Classics' European repertoire, this book both rewards admirers of its illustrious author while providing an entry point for curious readers. Either way, the twinned landscapes of frustrated Oedipal longing and the Fascist-era coastline evoke a tainted beauty both sensuous and violent." --"Publishers Weekly "starred review "Originally published in 1945, this novel about the loss of innocence shines in a new translation....Perceptive and razor-sharp insights into the agony of adolescence."--"Kirkus "starred review "The carnality that animates Agostino is naked and unashamed. But the reader who stays to its end will see that it is love with dross burned clean away." --William DuBois, "The New York Times " ""Agostino" is the case-study of an Oedipal conflict which manifests itself rather late by classical Freudian standards, but offers Moravia, in line with the whole tradition of the novel of adolescence in Europe, a richer, more complex subject matter to make use of than would otherwise be the case." --"The Southern Review" "A brilliant novella.... In the sober narrative of "Agostino" Moravia again dissected a mother-son relationship as the young protagonist of the novella made the joint discovery of sexuality (while his young, beautiful, sensuous mother became involved with a lover) and of class distinction, as the neglected boy took up with a band of working-class youth, whose sexual knowledge was far more advanced than his own. Their contempt for his innocence and their envy of his family's wealth run through the story in a typically Moravian juxtaposition." --William Weaver, "The New York Review of Books "" " "An expert study of an adolescent boy and the anguished processes by which"

ATLANTA - To Ryne Sandberg, he was a respected peer. To Larry Bowa, he was a manager's dream. To Tony Gwynn Jr., he was simply, "Dad." The Phillies joined the baseball world in mourning the passing of Hall of Famer Tony Gwynn yesterday, while at the same time moving to fill an opening on their bench as Gwynn Jr. left the team to return home to San Diego and was placed on the bereavement list.
The organization had been aware that the elder Gwynn was in grave condition. Bowa, who managed Gwynn for a year and a half with the Padres, said Gwynn Jr. told his teammates during a road trip last month that his father's cancer, which originated in his mouth, was not responding to treatment.

How can a holding investment firm help your business?
When you're in business, you're always looking at ways to improve it, by developing new products and services, providing excellent delivery for customers, and building trust with both suppliers and your consumers.
That's your day-to-day work – building the business and making profits that not only pay a dedicated workforce but also give you money to invest – so where should you look when you want to invest and make good returns? Can a holding company investment firm help your business?
Holding companies explained
If you're thinking of investing in a holding company, then you need to understand exactly what they do and how they could make your investment work profitably.
Holding companies don't have any operations or activities and don't have any other active business. They own assets and thus can have shares in a wide range of other businesses. For example, a holding company could have investments in publicly traded stocks, in song rights or brand names, could be involved with limited liability companies or hedge funds. Any business that has value could be something a holding company might invest in.
What can your business get out of an investment like this?
Research your options
As a business owner, you'll know that investments can be risky as well as extremely lucrative when they work well. You could invest in your own portfolio of stocks and shares and pay an advisor to manage that, but you're always at the mercy of the markets.
When you're considering investing in a holding company, you need to find out exactly where they invest and what the returns from those investments are – and what you will get back from your investment.
A holding company gets its money from interest, rents and dividends, so you need to check how it has performed over a number of years. If you decide to invest in a holding company, you should be looking to the long term rather than the short term. These are businesses that are locked into the way they perceive the future of the companies they invest in and, although they will take some risks, they know that they need to convince other businesses to invest in them.
A case study
There are many holding companies that have major investors, and M1 Group is one that has developed a wide range of successful businesses through hard work and developing investments in areas such as construction and, in particular, telecommunications. The company has attracted many millions of subscribers to Investcom, and has interests in aviation, real estate, retail and fashion as well as the energy business and industry.
The company's business model in diversifying and attracting new investors has helped it move towards building an increasingly attractive organisation for businesses to invest in. You can find out more about them at M1 Group on LinkedIn.
Investing with care
Investing always has risks; you take them and then live with them. Holding companies have such diverse holdings, carefully sourced and managed, that if you want to invest with one, then with the proper research, you could be on to a winner.
Weeks have passed since my last conscious memory. Weeks, I say! A man can lose his hat and perhaps even his pants, but to lose several weeks is inexcusable. Think what mischief might transpire over such a span of time!

How Technology Can Influence Social Change
There are currently 1.393 billion monthly active users on Facebook and roughly a billion registered Twitter users. To put this is in perspective, if Facebook were a country, it would be the most populous nation on Earth. Because social media tools and platforms have made it so simple to produce and broadcast a message via smartphone, the faces of activism, journalism and humanitarian efforts have been changed dramatically. Let's take a look at some of the more remarkable instances where technology has enabled people to get their ideas out to the world and influence social change.
The Haiti 2010 Earthquake
When a 7.0-magnitude earthquake hit Haiti on Jan. 17, 2010, it killed about 220,000 people, destroyed hundreds of thousands of homes, and left roughly 30,000 commercial buildings destroyed in its wake. As soon as word got out on Facebook and Twitter, fundraising support campaigns were launched to support the American Red Cross relief efforts. CNN Money reports the American Red Cross was able to raise about $7 million for Haiti in 24 hours via $10 text donations. Because this money was raised so quickly, the American Red Cross was able to provide an influx of support to the Haitian people.
The Arab Spring 2010
In 2010 when Egypt, Tunisia, Libya and many other Arab nations were experiencing political unrest, it was one of the first times in history when average citizens could share their experiences directly with people across the world via Twitter and Facebook, rather than being remediated by a news organization. Young people in Europe and America were able to connect with the youth involved in the conflicts of the Arab Spring, which fostered a social rapport. Much of the Western world became more invested in the outcome of the Middle East's political struggles.
One University of Washington study found that tweets about political change went from 2,300 a day to 230,000 a day during the week of former Egyptian President Honsi Mubarak's resignation. Throughout the period of instability in the Middle East, traditional news organizations struggled to keep up with the exchanges happening online, and people grew more accustomed to finding their news from social media sites and other alternative sources.
The Hong Kong 2014 Protests
In 2014, thousands of Hong Kong citizens took to the streets to protest a Beijing proposal that would restrict any anti-Chinese Communist Party members from running for office. The activists used Facebook to share videos and photos and an application called WhatsApp, which enabled users to send text messages, images, videos, user location and audio messages across different cellular platforms. Most innovative of all was the use of an application called FireChat, which won the Interactive Innovation Award at this year's South by Southwest conference, according to the Dish Network blog. FireChat enables phones to create their own network outside of the Internet via Bluetooth technology. Unlike mobile and internet networks that become sluggish or break down completely when users overload the system, the Bluetooth network created by FireChat actually gains strength as more people join. With their creative use of technology, Hong Kong protesters were able to coordinate their movement and stay organized while the occupy-style demonstrations continued for over three months.
How Drones are Changing Industries Worldwide
The drone controversy has been raging for years and will likely continue for many more, but recent proposals by the FAA regarding drone regulations have started to open up and clarify when and where drones can be used. And as technologies continue to advance in the fields of miniaturization, the use of drones becomes more and more appealing in a surprisingly wide range of industries.
Search & Rescue
Search and Rescue operations are one place that the use of drones is obvious. Not only can drones search more efficiently, they can cover more ground in less time. Companies like SAR Drones works in conjunction with S.W.A.R.M. (Search With Arial RC Multi-rotors) to help find missing people all over the world. The advantage of the drones is that once those people are found, Search and Rescue can use the drones to drop off items like food, water, two-way radios, and medical supplies.
Drones are now part of the construction industry, as commercial and residential roofing companies use the technology in several ways; a drone can help inspect large areas much quicker, which means that problem areas and possible defects can be identified and repaired faster, decreasing overall costs. A drone can also assist with measurements for roofing cost estimates, as well as laying out designs for customers.
Real Estate
Agents all over the country have been using drones as a tool for real estate marketing and advertising. Drones give agents the opportunity to get videos and pictures from various angles, giving clients and potential buyers a view of the entire house as well as the neighborhood. They can also do video tours of the house, using the drone to fly from room to room in an imitation of someone walking the property, ideal for people wanting to see a home but not able to visit it in person.
NASA has jumped on board with the drone craze, commissioning several drones for high altitude atmospheric tests to help scientists better understand our environment. The large drone flies 12 miles above the ground and can carry hundreds of sensors and equipment. Alternatively, several scientists in Florida have created tiny but durable drone sensors that are thrown into the path of oncoming tornadoes and hurricanes to help study the destructive storms in an attempt to better understand how they occur and how to better predict them.
Several police agencies across the country have started using specialized drones in place of helicopters in dangerous situations. These drones are equipped with incredibly powerful cameras containing night vision and heat sensors to help officers in dangerous confrontations such as when search for or diffusing bombs, resolving hostage situations, and chasing armed criminals.
Amazon and Google have both been playing with the idea of using drones to deliver products directly to customer's homes with no need for delivery drivers. These sophisticated drones are equipped with highly accurate GPS devices to drop your packages off right at your front door and can operate 24 hours a day, leading to faster delivery and lowered costs for both the companies and the customers. Companies like Delivery Drone are looking to take it one step further, imagining countrywide transportation and delivery services for everything from holiday gifts to daily groceries.
It's hard to say where the world will land on drone use and laws. Obviously regulations will be created and modified as time goes on, but the truth is drones are only growing in popularity as more and more people find unique and effective uses for these unmanned vehicles across all industries worldwide.
