DC Gives Back
Since launching in DC nearly 4 years ago, we've been inspired by this city and are proud to call it home. We are committed to serving DC by connecting our communities, empowering local entrepreneurs, and partnering with local entities to help improve city life.
This Thanksgiving we're proud to partner with the Capital Area Food Bank to support their efforts to take hunger off of the Washington area map.
On Tuesday, our local city team worked alongside Deputy Mayor Snowden to provide volunteer support to pack weekend grocery bags. These bags are just one way in which the CAFB addresses child hunger, which affects 1 in 3 kids in DC. The food is used as a supplement to children who receive free and reduced lunch at school and may miss out on access to nutrition on the weekend. The team was also able to assist with the logistics and transportation used to distribute bags throughout the community.
Our deepest thanks to CAFB for having us and to Deputy Mayor Snowden for joining us to support such a great cause. We urge you all to give back to the community—we all have the opportunity to make a difference.
Please visit the CAFB website if you are interested in donating or learning more about how you can volunteer your time.

"If someone were to stand up,brandish something such as a plastic knife and say 'This is a hijacking' or words to that effect here is what you should do: Every one of you should stand up and immediately throw things at that person — pillows, books, magazines, eyeglasses, shoes —anything that will throw him off balance and distract his attention. If he has a confederate or two, do the same with them. Most important: get a blanket over him, then wrestle him to floor and keep him there. We'll land the plane at the nearest airport and the authorities will take it from there."

ANDERSON, S.C. - An Anderson County sheriff's deputy is on leave after shooting and wounding a man who threatened him with a knife.
Sheriff John Skipper said in a statement that Deputy Clayton Martin went to a home Monday afternoon to investigate a reported theft.
When Martin returned to the home later in the day to get more information, Skipper says a resident approached the deputy with a knife and refused to put it down. Skipper says Martin fired when the man refused to stop coming toward him.
The sheriff says 31-year-old Mikhail Victor Silver was shot several times and was taken to a hospital for treatment. Skipper says Silver is in critical condition.
As is standard, Martin has been placed on leave while state police investigate. Skipper says he was not hurt.

New Medical Therapies
Following are the most recent results for new drug therapies currently in clinical trials worldwide. Results
are also searchable by therapeutic area beginning with the most recent updates.
GlaxoSmithKline reported results of a phase III study of Shingrix for shingles in adults aged 70 years and older. ZOE-70 was a randomized, observer-blind, placebo-controlled (saline solution) multicenter, multinational phase III trial involving more than 14,800 adults. Two doses were given intramuscularly, two months apart. The study started in parallel with the ZOE-50 trial. The primary objective was overall vaccine efficacy against shingles compared to placebo. The study showed that the two-dose candidate shingles vaccine had 90% efficacy (95% confidence interval: 84-94%) compared to placebo. Vaccine efficacy was maintained across the various age groups included in the study, ranging between 90% in people aged 70-79 years (95% confidence interval: 83-94%) and 89% in those aged 80 years and above (95% confidence interval: 74-96%). In addition, a pooled analysis of data from the ZOE-70 and ZOE-50 trials showed that the candidate vaccine effectively reduced the risk of subsequent chronic neuropathic pain, also known as postherpetic neuralgia (PHN), which is the most common, and often severe, complication of shingles. The candidate vaccine was shown to be 89% (95% confidence interval: 68-97%) efficacious in preventing PHN in people aged 70 years and older and 91% efficacious (95% confidence interval: 75-98%) in people aged 50 years and over. The risk of serious adverse events, potential immune-mediated diseases or deaths observed in ZOE-70 was similar in people receiving Shingrix and placebo. The most commonly reported local adverse reaction was pain at the injection site, and the most frequently reported systemic adverse reaction was fatigue.
Merck (MSD) and Pfizer released results of a phase III study (VERTIS SITA2) of ertugliflozin for patients with type 2 diabetes. The double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study enrolled 463 patients with type 2 diabetes and a baseline A1C of 7–10.5% were randomized to receive ertugliflozin 5mg, ertugliflozin 15mg or placebo in a 1:1:1 ratio. Both 5mg and 15mg daily doses of ertugliflozin showed significantly greater reductions in A1C (average measure of blood glucose over the past two to three months) of 0.69% and 0.76%, respectively, compared with placebo (p<0.001, for both comparisons), when added to patients on a background of sitagliptin (100mg/day) and stable metformin (=1500 mg/day). A greater proportion of patients taking ertugliflozin 5mg and 15mg achieved the A1C treatment goal of less than 7% (32.1% and 39.9%, respectively) compared with the placebo group (17%) (p<0.001, for both comparisons based on adjusted odds ratios). Merck and Pfizer plan to submit New Drug Applications to the FDA for ertugliflozin and two fixed-dose combinations (ertugliflozin plus JANUVIA [sitagliptin] and ertugliflozin plus metformin) by the end of 2016, with additional regulatory submissions outside of the U.S. to follow in 2017.
Sanofi Genzyme issued results of a phase IV study of Aubagio (teriflunomide), for relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (MS). Teri-PRO was a prospective, global, multicenter, single-arm, open-label study, with a primary outcome measure of global satisfaction of Aubagio as measured by the TSQM (Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication) Version 1.4 at week 48. The TSQM 1.4 included 14 questions intended to assess patients' satisfaction with a medication, provided scores between zero to 100 in four domains: global satisfaction, effectiveness, side effects and convenience. A higher TSQM score indicated greater patient-reported treatment satisfaction in that domain. A total of 1,000 patients were treated in the study; 928 patients received Aubagio 14mg and 72 patients received Aubagio 7mg (U.S. only). TSQM scores were assessed at week four and at week 48 in all patients, and at baseline, at week four and at week 48 in patients switching to Aubagio from another disease-modifying treatment (DMT). At week four and at week 48, high mean treatment satisfaction scores were observed with Aubagio for all patients in the study, across all four domains: global satisfaction 72.3/8.2; effectiveness 67.1/66.3; side effects 88.4/84.1; and convenience 92.3/90.4.

I recently purchased the Borla multicore exaust and once installed I had a big smile on my face from the look of it. After starting it up my smile got bigger from the sound of it. I've noticed an increase in HP quicker reaction as well. I would definitely recommend this product to someone looking for a good exhaust.

Middle-aged women are dying from overdoses of prescription opioid painkillers at "skyrocketing" rates, more than five times as often in 2010 as in 1999, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Tuesday.
"Mothers, sisters, and daughters are dying from prescription drug overdoses more than we've ever seen," CDC director Tom Frieden said in a conference call with reporters.
The CDC previously reported that deaths from overdoses of prescription opioid painkillers had exceeded those of cocaine and heroin combined.
The new report said more than 6,600 women died from a prescription painkiller overdose in 2010, which is more than twice the number dying from cervical cancer. The fastest-growing age group was those women 45 to 54.

Supreme Ruler: Cold War
CTD not due to trainer.
AdmiralP posted on Jul 23, 2012 11:59:20 AM - Report post
I recently picked up this game, and have been excited to give it a shot. Unfortunately, the game keeps CTD every time I attempt to launch a campaign. This happens with or without the trainer running so I know it has nothing to do with the trainer whatsoever. I am just wondering if anyone had a similar occurrence and knew of a simple fix. I will research the issue definitely, but just thought I would hit up the CH crew to see if anyone knew of anything off-hand. Thanks in advance.
Found what my CTD issue was. I have a Radeon GPU. In order to use said GPU I had to select an option in the graphics menu that read NVidia driver workaround. After selecting that option, I have not had any other issue... so far!

That is the smartest thing I have ever heard anyone say about anything.

Scottish Government Reports
Marine Mammal Scientific Support Research Programme - Phase II
Scottish Government are currently funding a major strategic marine mammal research project to provide advice to Scottish Ministers and stakeholders across a range of key marine policy areas (the Marine Mammal Scientific Support Programme). The programme comprises three major themes: Marine renewable energy, harbour seal decline and seal and salmon interactions.
The Annual Reports on Progress under each theme were published at the end of the first year of the programme (April 2016) and can be found at the following links:
In 2015 SMRU completed phase I of a major strategic marine mammal research project funded by the Scottish Government, with additional support from Scottish National Heritage (SNH), which provides advice to Scottish Ministers and stakeholders across a range of key marine policy areas (the Marine Mammal Scientific Support Research Programme MMSS/001/11). The programme comprised four major themes: Marine renewable energy, harbour seal decline, unexplained seal deaths, and seal and salmon interactions.
A summary of the major findings can be found here.
To complete the research SMRU worked with a number of collaborating organisations, including the Joint Nature Conservation Committee (JNCC), the Department for Energy and Climate Change (DECC), the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC), the Department for Food and Rural Affairs (Defra), and the Scottish Association for Marine Science (SAMS).
The final reports associated with this research programme can be found below. The Executive Summary from each report can be viewed separately and the reports downloaded as PDFs.

The focus of this research theme was the possible impact of offshore marine renewable energy developments on marine mammals. Potential interactions between seals and cetaceans and various tidal, wind and wave devices were evaluated. An investigation into suitable mitigation measures was also included. This project recognised the need to progressively improve both marine mammal assessment and monitoring methods as well as management approaches to help minimise any apparent adverse effects.
*Also known as common
Significant declines in many harbour seal populations on the east and north coasts of Scotland were first identified following aerial surveys carried out in 2006. The numbers of animals hauled out on land during their annual moult in August are counted by the SMRU. The dramatic reduction in the number of animals seen during these counts has caused concern, particularly in Shetland and Orkney where up to 60% of the animals have been lost and in the Firth of Tay where over a 90% decline in numbers has been observed.
This research theme provided an update on the potential causes of the decline and priorities for future research; discussed management and potential mitigation options; determined the diet of Scottish common compared to grey seals (whose populations in Scotland are not declining) and investigated the dynamics of the common seal populations using a modelling and risk assessment approach.
Significant numbers of harbour seal and some grey seal carcasses showing unusual injuries have been washing ashore at sites around the UK, many along the east coast of Scotland. The carcasses have a characteristic single, smooth-edged cut starting at the head and spiralling around the body. These trauma injuries are not consistent with any previously identified causes of death such as entanglement in fishing nets or boat propeller strikes.
This project set out to identify the mechanism(s) involved in these unexplained seal mortality events; to assess the extent and level of seal mortality due to these mechanisms and the implications for the viability of the local seal populations.
There is a long history of conflict between salmon fisheries and seals due to highly visible damage to fish or observed depredation (seals removing fish from nets), leading to a widespread belief among fishermen that seals adversely affect both salmon stocks and landings. Until recently, this conflict was often resolved by shooting individual seals. Since 2010, however, shooting has only been allowed in Scotland under licence to protect fish and fishing gear from seals. While non-lethal measures are preferred, these are still not effective in all cases and the option of killing should now be seen as a last resort.
The objectives of this study were therefore to investigate the effectiveness of acoustic deterrent devices (ADDs) and the modification of salmon nets to mitigate the effects of seals on these fisheries; to collect seal carcases for dietary analysis and provide scientific support to the district salmon fishery boards (DSFBs).
Other Reports for Scottish Government
Scottish legislation requires the designation of key seal haul-out sites in Scotland, at which seals are protected from intentional or reckless harassment. SMRU was tasked by the Scottish Government to develop a method for selecting these key sites. The following report describes the process used to identify and select designated seal haul-out sites using SMRU aerial survey data.
Other Reports
CR929: Surveys of harbour and grey seals on the south-east (border to Aberlady Bay) and south-west (Sound of Jura to Solway Firth) coasts of Scotland, in Shetland, in the Moray Firth and in the Firth of Tay in August 2015
The survey in August 2015 of harbour and grey seals was part of the ongoing programme of surveys commissioned by SNH in collaboration with the Sea Mammal Research Unit at St Andrews University. The survey covered Shetland, the south-east and south-west coasts of Scotland as well as the Moray Firth and Firth of Tay. The survey in Shetland was the first for 6 years and the number of harbour seals counted in 2015 (3369) was very similar to that in 2009 (3039). In south-west Scotland the number has increased since they were last counted; with 7645 recorded in 2014/2015 compared to 5930 in 2007/2009. This scale of increase has been observed all along the west coast of Scotland. In contract numbers on the east coast remain very depressed with only 60 harbour seals recorded in the Firth of Tay around 10% of what was recorded in 1997, whilst the number in the Moray Firth in 2015 was 745, very similar to 2007/2009 (776) but down considerably on the 1997 of 1409. Grey seals are counted at the same time but these numbers are highly variable but do show the distribution of animals around the coast.
A copy of the report can be found here
Further surveys will be undertaken in 2016, namely Orkney and the east coast of Scotland and the results of these surveys will be reported in due course.
In 2012 SMRU began developing technology to track the underwater movements of harbour porpoises in tidal rapids to help better understand the risk that the deployment and operation of tidal turbines might pose. Over the years we developed a passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) system which could be deployed from a drifting boat and provides fine scale geo-referenced tracks of harbour porpoises. This has greatly improved our understanding of how animals behave in tidal rapid areas, however the technology required to build our drifting PAM system and the expertise to run it meant the technology was not accessible to consultancies or industry. In 2013 SMRU was awarded a NERC Knowledge exchange grant to further develop this fine scale tracking technology to make it more accessible to the wider community and using this we created PLABuoy (porpoise locating array buoy), which is a cheaper, safer, autonomous alternative to our boat based drifting PAM system.
This report provides an overview of the current techniques available for monitoring seal haul-out sites with a particular focus on those at the Sound of Islay. It describes the results of boat based disturbance trials undertaken at selected, non-designated, haul-out sites in the Sound, using time-lapse photography and telemetry to track subsequent seal movements. Based on this, a simple, time lapse photography based method of haul-out monitoring is described that should provide sufficient information to identify and characterise any boat based disturbance events. Though based upon haul-outs within the Sound of Islay, the approach described may be readily adapted and employed elsewhere.

The act of trying to hide an erection by tucking your penis into the waistband of your pants. This method is usually used when in public and/or wearing loose fitting pants or shorts.
I got an erection while staring at that woman but i was in public so I had to tuck up.

Can you define these popular missing words?
To shaft or prank someone, usually a mate. As seen on some of the WKD adverts
You tuck up a mate, when they can't get away from someone talking to them and you don't rescue them.

Ceiling Fans in Disguise
Mistral Ceiling Fan by Moooi. It looks like a sleek contemporary pendant light, but embedded in the shade is, voila, a fan! After a little more research, I found a few more ceiling fans that looked like beautiful light fixtures that I would be proud to have in my home. Hopefully, this trend will catch-on and ceiling fans in disguise will be available everywhere! Images: 1. Chic Tip: Mistral Ceiling Fan 2. Phillippe Malouin: Dervish 3. Designer Homez: Big Ass Fan 4.

Review quote
Building vibrant communities is high on social and civic agendas. Models of programs and projects are increasingly becoming recognized through literature, media and internet. A leading voice is New Village Press, a publishing house dedicated to producing books dealing with community building, community development, and community-based art. Lynne Elizabeth is current director of the press and one of the editors of Works of Heart. In the preface she praises the late Jane Jacobs for having the courage to include the emotion "love" as the vibrant glue for what really makes community work successful and the inspiration for the book's title.In this small, power-packed, inspirational book there are nine case studies which demonstrate the potential and possibilities in community-based arts projects. Easily accessible and informative, it is a benefit for students, artists, educators, designers, planners, civic leaders, non-profit professionals, and volunteers interested or involved in community endeavors. This compendium illustrates initiatives for grassroots community building through the arts. It comes from community membership infused with passion and caring to make their corner of the world a little better. It speaks of the interactions, the struggles, the joys, and the ultimate sense of satisfaction in making a difference in a community.Tom Borrup, a New Village Press author cited below, in the book's introduction, entitled "Creating Community with What s Underfoot" credits the artists profiled in the book for their propensity for attention to their surroundings....They notice the sights, sounds, and experiences of everyday life and use them as source materials. They find value in what others overlook....The artists in this book all share a common quality: They bring together generosity of the heart with the ability to dig deep to find the vision, the wherewithal and the raw materials to improve life in the communities and world in which they live (Elizabeth 2006, 11).Individuals interested in sustainability will find creative impulses sparked by the resourcefulness of material usage and adaptability in the projects.Works of Heart is a tribute not only to the communities with the courage to engage in forward-thinking approaches for community change but to the artists who participated in the projects. The artists, as agents of social change, become stewards of their community. Passion drives the artists to discover unusual resources. Their organizational skills (including engaging the community at large and coordinating the project) and perseverance are paramount for the success of the project. Evidence of their commitment, dedication and ingenuity are common to all the projects. The community-based artist moves from the me in individual creative endeavors to the we in community collaborations. Through their vision, problems and issues become awe-inspiring artistic statements. The brilliant examples of their community projects in this book serve to encourage project managers to include artists in initial design and planning, and to provide inspiration for future community projects.The table of contents organizes the nine exemplary projects under three different categories: Creating Place, Celebrating Culture, and Artist as Activist. For easy reference, each project has a brief description of its scope. This brief synopsis provides quick identification of cases for readers with similar interests.In Works of Heart, each project description includes salient information such as location, organization, artist(s), process, financing, materials, and anecdotal information, as well as outstanding color photographs and resource information. The included projects demonstrate a broad spectrum of scope, complexity, scale, diversity, and geographic location: A beehive collective in Maine tackling global economic issues; Fairplay Middle School in Oregon getting a facelift with mud murals; an expressive garden refuge for a cancer center in San Francisco; an international art and poetry contest based in Berkeley to bring understanding of the natural landscape; an artist s journey into the Bronx, celebrating its rich Italian cultural heritage; a faith-based quilting project in Boston; the salvaging of an abandoned soap factory in Minneapolis for an emerging artist art gallery; the transformation of abandoned lot in Philadelphia into the Village of Arts and Humanities (winner if the 2001 Rudy Bruner Award for Urban Excellence), and the Vancouver-based Public Dreams Society creating community magical events, traditions, and rituals. Works of Heart is a feel-good book and a valuable reference, especially for practicum work. Its strengths include the fact that it is a beautifully illustrated documentary of outstanding community projects, and that it is indexed and has a community-based arts resources directory. Borrup s and Goldbard s books noted below provide more theoretical information on community building and development.ReferencesGoldbard, Arlene (2006).

Hitachi's NR83A2 framing nailer is one of the most high-quality, high-performance pneumatic framers on the market today. Weighing only 7.9 lbs the tool is clearly lightweight and the tool is extremely well balanced for the most comfortable operation and maneuverability. The framer has a tool-less depth adjustment allowing craftsmen to choose their depth of drive, and with an open nose design, extracting a jammed nail is hardly a hassle. The framer also features selective actuation, a favorite feature of most users, which allow craftsmen to simply transition from single actuation to contact actuation for the greatest versatility through a variety of applications. The tool is strong, fast, and versatile, and because it's also so lightweight and well-balanced, continuous work and awkward applications are far less strenuous. Ultimately, the NR83A2 is a seriously tough framer built for durability on the jobsite and for reliability through the most heavy-duty applications. Lastly,pricing from about 0 – 0, Hitachi's framer is a bit spendy, but is worth every penny. (Note: This tool is also available as a sequential trigger gun (NR83A2S) for just about 0.)
On another hand, Porter-Cable's FR350A 3-1/2″ roundhead framing nailer is one of the more heavy-duty pneumatic framing tools on the market today. With the power to drive nails up to 3-1/2″ x 131″ into engineered lumber, the tool has intense power. The framer's compact body design contributes to its well-balance and overall smooth style while an internal piston catch mechanism ensures each shot is consistently powerful. A selectable trigger transitions modes between restrictive or contact actuation mode, and with a tool-free adjustable depth-of-drive, craftsmen have complete control over the tool's performance. The tool is simple to reload, and a nail lockout mechanism alerts you when its time to reload your tool. Keeping your materials protected during work, the framer also has a (tool-free, adjustable) exhaust and a (removable) non-marring nose tip, and also having on-tool storage, the FR350AR is endlessly convenient. Ranging in price from about 0 – 0, the framer is abrilliant tool at a certainly reasonable price.
The FR350A is also available reconditioned (FR350AR) for just about 0. As a reconditioned tool, this nailer presents a truly superior value to craftsmen and builders. For those unfamiliar with recons, they are an extremely great value that bring craftsmen the highest-performance tools at a tiny fraction of regular cost. Reconditioned tools, for some minor cosmetic or technical defect, have been returned to the manufacturer. There, they undergo a series of stringent tests and retests and restoration processes before being re-released with an "R" trailing the model number. This little "R" (and potentially hundreds of dollars) is truly the only difference between a brand new tool and a recon. The value with reconditioned tools is a no-brainer; when they are available, buy them.
Like Hitachi and Porter-Cable, Senco is known for building some of the best pneumatic tools and nailers in the industry. With well-seasoned experience and superior craftsmanship, Senco is an steadfast contender in the world of pneumatics. Pricing from about 0 – 0, their SN902XP framing nailer is a brilliant and saucy little tool with 904 in/lbs of power in a compact, 7.3 lb package. This round head framer is also built with a innovated design that requires up to fifteen-percent less air than other comparable models, and still having the power to drive 2 – 3-1/4″ (round head plastic collated) framing nails with fast efficiency, the nailer perfectly unites precision power and lightweight convenience. The nailer also drives 2″-3-1/2″ smooth shank nails and 2″-3″ ring shank nails. The tool's compact design also contributes to its ability to work in tight spaces in between studs and joists, and its overall balance and ease of operation. Additionally, the gun is easy to transition from rapid fire to sequential fire and is simple to load and unload for optimal convenience on the job. The SN902XP is ideal for a huge number of applications from framing, fencing and subfloors, to trusses and decking. It additionally has a patented TrueDrive magazine to prevent jamming and an adjustable depth of drive for unfailing precision with every shot. Like the above Porter-Cable nailer, Senco's SN902XP is also available reconditioned (if you can find it) for about 0.
In the end and whatever your needs may be, one of these nailers is certain to be an ideal framer. With big power, acute precision, and the accountability of a time-honored manufacturer, these pneumatic framing nailers are the best of the best.

Nailing Or Screwing Drywall
Nails as opposed to screws who will become the winner. While drywall very first arrived out the installers utilized everything from normal metal coil nails to galvanized roofing nails. After a brief amount of your time they began to develop main difficulties from nails coming out from the finished drywall.
Nail popping results when the nail is driven into moist lumber and since the lumber shrinks the house settles and nail can actually come out to the walls. How much the nail might actually pop out was determined by way of how much it used to be driven in to the framing studs or ceiling joists. This labored excellent but those nails were hard to generate in and may often break.
Those new nails worked excellent and experienced good holding energy and eliminated a whole lot of nail popping.
Using coil nails means driving them in with a hammer. If you omit the nail you damage the drywall. This appeared to be a large issue and was practically eliminated with the screws.
Nicely fairly quickly people began utilizing screws which experienced greater retaining energy and pretty a lot nail popping. This means much less exertions setting up and ending the drywall.
There's one issue using the screws and that is they need to be arranged perfectly. They can no longer holiday the paper surface area on the drywall but have to be set enough into the drywall to ensure that it can be finished properly. Such a lot screw weapons have an adjustable setting used to obtain just the correct depth for the screws set up within the drywall. That doesn't imply the coil nails just obtained screwed or even the screws simply got nailed.

Ashle H asked What should I stock up on for a hurricane?
Like what kind of foods should i buy, and what kind of supplies?
And got the following answer:
Food, water, MANUAL can opener (very important if the power is out) gasoline (if you have a generator) gas up your car, cash (ATMs won't work if there is no power) car adapter for cell phone, place important papers in a waterproof Ziploc bag (insurance policies, birth certificates, prescriptions) diapers (if you have small children or infants) ammo (if you own a gun – better safe than sorry) batteries (for flashlights and radios) bug repellent (mosquitoes LOVE standing water) a couple of heavy duty tarps and duct tape (good for quickie repairs) plywood (for boarding up windows) hammer, nails, screwdrivers, saw, propane (if you have a gas grill) – that's all I can think of off the top of my head. I've lived in hurricane alley for almost 20 years and it seems like every year I forget something, but this is a good starter list. Good luck!! (and add first aid kit to the above list)
Answers asked Where can I get a Sithl finish nail gun?
I'm looking for a Stihl finish nail gun. I live in Ohio and I'm trying to find one locally. I think they're either called finish nailer or finish nail gun. I'm looking for an American made product, so if there aren't any Stihl products around, what's another brand I can get, that's as made-in-America as possible?
And got the following answer:
Good luck , Stihl does not make nail guns, just gas power tools. Maybe go to one of the box stores and buy a good Bostich nailer. Mad by Stanley
sailor asked What is the best pneumatic framing nail gun?
I was just at Home Depot searching for a framing nail gun. It will be used for home use, not a business. I like the Paslode, gas cartridge/battery operated but it is spendy and I've heard the #1 nailer that is returned with problems, mainly not being cleaned as instructions say to do. I looked at Bostitch, Porter Cable, and several others but just not sure what is the best middle of the road nailer and that will work reliably.
And got the following answer:
i own a Hitachi (full headed nail model), metal body framing gun and love it. i also own the Hitachi roofing nail gun. i do home improvement for a living, and guys that i have worked with have switched to Hitachi after working with me and my guns. one guy used to use bostich, but switched, the other used senco guns. also, the Hitachi's continue to fire and set nails when the others don't, when the air pressure runs low. as far as the paslode, nails cost more for those, and then you need the fuel cells, too, if you have a compressor, i'd go for an air nailer. if Hitachi's are too pricey for your budget, i'd suggest that you look at the new Milwaukee guns, i know that they are priced affordably, and if they are anything like their power tools, will be well built. another thing to consider is repairs, check your local yellow pages for air tool repair shops, and see what brands they fix, just in case. squirt the tool with a few drops of air tool oil before you start to use them for the day, and again after lunch if it's humid and you shouldn't have any trouble whichever tool you buy. good luck, hope this helps.

Categorizing object-actions relations from semantic scene graphs
drac babette.pdf (1.961Mb) (Restricted access)
Document typeConference report
Date issued2010
Rights accessRestricted access - publisher's policy
In this work we introduce a novel approach for detecting spatiotemporal object-action relations, leading to both, action recognition and object categorization. Semantic scene graphs are extracted from image sequences and used to find the characteristic main graphs of the action sequence via an exact graph-matching technique, thus providing an event table of the action scene, which allows extracting objectaction relations. The method is applied to several artificial and real action scenes containing limited context. The central novelty of this approach is that it is model free and needs a priori representation neither for objects nor actions. Essentially actions are recognized without requiring prior object knowledge and objects are categorized solely based on their exhibited role within an action sequence. Thus, this approach is grounded in the affordance principle, which has recently attracted much attention in robotics and provides a way forward for trial and error learning of object-action relations through repeated experimentation. It may therefore be useful for recognition and categorization tasks for example in imitation learning in developmental and cognitive robotics.

The Deeper Story
"The Resurrection of a Symbol: A Dark Brown Earth-Christ"
This past Easter I was in Bhutan surrounded by incredible sacred Buddhist images and blessed by the people who radiate an atmosphere of loving kindness. Still my heart remembered the vision of Christ I saw in Brasillia, the capital of Brazil, some years ago. St Teresa of Avilla was deeply awakened to her mystical path by passing a familiar statue of Christ on the cross. One day, the statue came alive for her and revealed the profound depths of forgiveness. For me it was a cross with a life-size Christ made out of dark brown wood. As I looked at the face a door opened for me revealing the global suffering of brown- skinned people from discrimination, diminishment and poverty. As a concept I was aware of the plight of brown- skinned people but now it became a reality of the heart...Click here to continue reading The Deeper Story...

The computers in the library are very old and slow. The availability is okay but sometimes hard to find.
Even though it might take a few minutes to connect to the network, there are multiple computer labs to use and you are even able to check a laptop out from the library. Tech support is always willing to help with any problems you could encounter.
fast internet, wireless and wired in dorm, wireless everywhere, plentiful computer labs just upgraded and running Windows7, access to Office, Adobe Creative Suite; CatLink portal makes it easy to get to grades, degree audit, email, Blackboard, all the information and services you need; very helpful IT help desk;
The computer labs at Catawba College are plentiful and accessible 24/7. During midterms and finals they do get very crowded but not enough so to cause problems. Plus the amount of pages allowable per student per semester are more than enough to print all papers needed for classes. The wi-fi is a little slow at times, but they are working on improving it.
The school recently upgraded the majority of the computers on campus to Windows 7 Professional (they were all Windows XP *blahh*) so now the computers are MUCH MORE faster.Every student gets 450 free pages a semester to print, and we have two 24hr computer labs, along with a few other labs in certain other buildings on campus. We do have a color printer, and you can use the copier to make copies for about 10cent a page.

Sorry, there are no reviews.
For the most part, the school's wireless network is pretty reliable; however, sometimes it has problems (like any other school's network). There are two 24-hour computer labs, which are never really crowded except during midterms and finals weeks. Every student should bring a computer to school with them, if possible. Laptops are the best idea.
Computer services should be your last resort. They know computers more than the average person, but they can also really mess up your computer. You could bring a computer to them to remove a virus, and then realize when you get the computer home that they had taken off part of their own program (the one the school has you put on to get into the network).

"We are building up the work and following a plan. While we advance in the trainings, we will be looking not only at the weight but also for resistance and stámina, as we prepare for the first defense of the title," Montanocordoba assured.
