![]() Most acoustic floor solutions are suitable for all types of floors and can be installed in new build or renovation scenarios.Ī key challenge with acoustic layers within a floor construction is that they cannot be penetrated. There are two main types of noise protection, airborne noise which can be music, voice and TV or impact noise which can be footsteps or heavy items dropped on the floor.Īcoustic products will often focus on either airborne or impact noise, however, there are some that can deal with both. So here at Ambiente, we’ve put together a guide on what you need to consider before installing wet underfloor heating with acoustic layers.Īre there different types of acoustic flooring?Īcoustic and soundproofing solutions can take many different forms, although those that are designed to be used within a floor construction are typically a sheet material made from foam or rubber. This is why including acoustic layers between floors to minimise the transfer of noise is becoming increasingly common – however, this can create a challenge when installing underfloor heating. Loud music, kids screaming, movie surround sound on full blast and dogs barking have all lead to sour relationships between neighbours. Specialist Systems Ambiente has developed some specialist systems to cater for specific requirements such as structural floor areas and raised access floor systems, and even a wall heating solution.Additional levelling can also be achieved with 10mm and 30mm cradle base packers. Acoustic Systems AmbiAcoustic Cradle and Batton enables quick and simple levelling of uneven subfloors through the use of 2mm and 5mm cradle packers positioned within the cradle legs and below the battens.Floating Floors Floating floor systems consist of UFH pipes laid directly into pre-grooved and foiled insulation boards, which can be laid directly onto the floor surface below.The aluminium plate either spans the joist or is fixed from underneath and supports the pipes as well as spreading heat for an even heat output. Suspended Floors Used for joisted or battened floors, we offer a range of plated solutions to suit each application.These systems can be laid onto solid floor surfaces to provide an even heat output with minimal floor build-up. ![]() Low Profile Systems Low Profile systems are ever-increasing in popularity as more people see the benefits of underfloor heating and want to add it to their property.The warm pipes effectively heat up the whole slab, giving even and consistent heat output. Pipes are clipped or stapled onto an insulation layer, then the screed is laid on top. Screeded Floors Screeded systems are the most popular and effective type of underfloor heating. ![]() The iPhone has a 2-megapixel, f2.8 camera. For a mobile phone camera, I found out that it can take really good pictures - good enough to serve as the anywhere-and-everywhere camera I’ve always really wanted. Not expecting it would be useful enough, I got a pleasant surprise. Well, I was actually surprised at what iPhone’s camera can do. Now, I know it has a camera and all, but I didn’t use it until after a week and after I’ve just about explored all the features there is to be explored. I constantly review my appointments and update my calendar. I’ve used it as my alarm clock on a couple of occasions when I had to wake up really early. Any time I like, I can check the weather in New York, Manila, and Singapore. This one device do so many wonderful things for me that I’m constantly fingering it. In less than a week, it turned into the hub of my mobile digital lifestyle. I really love this toy.Īnd guess what? I’m loving the iPhone more and more because I am learning that I can do so many other things with it. And yes, I use it as a mobile phone, I use it as an iPod, and I use it to connect to the Internet. It’s a revolutionary mobile phone, a sleek widescreen iPod, and a breakthrough Internet device. ![]() Eventually, and finally, I did get my very own iPhone. I have to tell you, the Mac diehard that I am, I’ve always desired one the moment Steve Jobs unveiled it his MacWorld keynote address. After a while, I stopped bringing the compact camera.Īnd then, came the iPhone. ![]() And then somehow, I keep forgetting to recharge it. About the only time I get to whip out my shiny and compact digital point-and-shoot camera was whenever someone would ask if anybody got a camera to take pictures of this or that. But somehow, I wasn’t inspired to take it out and snap pictures. For a while, I brought the camera with me. Unfortunately, both cellphone cameras were not good enough for the kind of “street” photography I wanted to do.Īnd then, about a couple of months back, I decided to get myself a really nice point-and-shoot pocket camera, and I thought, finally, I’d be able to snap up photos wherever I am and whenever I want. I used to have 2 cellphones in Manila so I had two cameras. It just doesn’t seem to work with fun and quirky spur-of-the-moment street photography.īut then again, I just realized, I actually bring a camera with me all the time. Lugging around the pro cameras was an idea that I never warmed up to. And how conspicuously “professional-looking” these cameras are. What kept me from doing it? The bulk and the weight of my DSLRs. I thought it would be cool to be able to say, “Hey, I was at this place earlier today, and I saw this.” And then, show the picture. The photographer that I am, I see so many “photographable” things along the way, and I just end up thinking and wishing and wanting to snap them all up for posterity. There used to be a time not too long ago when I kept wishing I brought my cameras with me all the time. ![]() Review each app or feature to disable the notifications you don’t want to receive.

If you use many machines, the process may be tedious and you should use the next method. You may import and export this vocabulary. With DMPE-4, there are methods for sharing vocabulary from one machine to the next. This is one of the strongest points of using a cloud-based service. No additional work is needed for backing up user profiles, ensuring network connectivity. Therefore, if you add a word or phrase on one computer, this added vocabulary is available on all computers. With DMO, everything is stored in the cloud. This is a liberal policy and is simply checked to ensure piracy is not an issue. Your account will then be reviewed and you are either granted or rejected more activations. Should you run out of activations, you will be required to make a special request for an increase in activations.

When Dale gets arrested after his angry son betrays him and alerts the police, the defense requests that the judge recuse herself an ADA recruited by Dante then arrives with evidence that the judge, who prosecuted Dale's case ten years ago, not only covered up witness statements that would have helped him but also arranged for the cellmate's murder to protect herself. Robyn strikes a deal with Dante to obtain evidence that Dale was set up. His former lawyer asks Robyn to find Dale, who is reluctant to put his life in someone else's hands and refuses to accept Robyn's help. Robyn gets Bishop to cut a deal with the Company: she will perform freelance work for them in exchange for a blind eye being turned to her vigilantism.Īn innocent man, Dale, escapes from prison looking to find the man who framed him for murder, only to be framed again when his old cellmate ends up dead.

In between, Robyn tries to figure out a secret Delilah is keeping from her. Robyn arranges for the owner's right-hand man to be framed as the informant, allowing her to rescue Jackson, deliver the real informant to the FBI, and get both the owner and his FBI mole arrested. Robyn takes down the ring's stash house, and the deadline for Jackson's return is moved up. She discovers that the kidnapping is connected to a sex trafficking ring run by a prominent club owner, who is trying to find an informant working with the agent. ![]() Robyn answers the request of a woman whose son, Jackson, was kidnapped to force her to break into the safe of her employer, an FBI agent.

No meningitis, cerebral abscess, encephalitis or deaths were observed. Five patients were discharged to a rehabilitation centre. ![]() Surgical intervention was required in 8 patients. The most common clinical feature associated with PE was cranial nerve injury, observed in 10 patients. The other classic signs of basal skull fracture (Battle's sign, hemotympanum, cerebrospinal fluid otorrhea, cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea) were observed in 3, 7, 1, and 3 patients with PE, respectively. PE was associated with a variety of injuries including: 15 basal skull fractures, 9 soft tissue injuries without fractures, 8 convexity fractures, and 3 facial fractures.

Regusters has maintained her innocence in the case. “Children shouldn’t have to have colostomies. She said she can’t think of more than two handfuls of cases where the trauma and injury to the anus had been as severe as what the child went through in this case. That procedure was reversed in May, four months later, with another surgery, the doctor testified.Ĭhristian said she has conducted “thousands and thousands” of exams on children who had been sexually abused. Christian said the internal exam helped them determine the need for a temporary colostomy bag to give her body time to heal. The girl was taken to the hospital's Child Abuse, Referral and Evaluation Clinic where she was surgically examined under anesthesia. Some of the drugs caused illness and vomiting, which the child endured for days after treatment in the ER.Ĭhristian testified that the child’s mother called pediatricians days after leaving the hospital because the child remained in immense pain, had difficulty walking and was still not able to go to the bathroom. ![]() ![]() The girl was also given anti-retrovirals to try and protect her body from any exposure to sexually transmitted diseases like HIV. "I can’t imagine it being any more severe," said Christian, who also testified about injuries to the girl's vagina.Īfter being found partially clothed in an Upper Darby playground, the girl was transported to CHOP's emergency room where she was examined and forensic evidence collected.

The images were shown Tuesday as part of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania's case against 21-year-old Christina Regusters. The evidence was so disturbing that Common Pleas Judge Jeffrey Minehart asked the public to leave the room. "The photos are shocking and disturbing." "Gruesome," said attorney Tom Kline, who is handling the civil case on behalf of the now 7-year-old victim. She couldn't bear to look at the injuries sustained by a 5-year-old girl abducted last year from her elementary school and raped with a sharp object. A female juror looked to the ceiling, brought a tissue to her face and wiped tears from her eyes. It also counts out the smartphone, which some Stockpile Reports customers tried in logistics applications but it to be too much effort. That counts everyone’s favorite capture device (the drone) out of the running. The material levels are changing near-constantly, which means they need to be measured every 15 minutes or so. “Is the shed half full? Is about empty? Do we need to make another order?”īoardman explained why this problem wasn’t an easy one to solve: You have materials moving in a variety of ways, on ships, trains, and trucks coming in and out of ready mix plants. It was bad enough that many of them would just send a guy out to eyeball it. Because these companies didn’t have the right hardware solution to make capture fast and easy, they were finding it too difficult to get the data they needed. ![]() Why fixed-camera 3D?īoardman says that, in the last year, he started getting a lot of calls from companies interested in using the Stockpile Reports technology for logistics use cases. This is where the promise of the system becomes clear: Stockpile Reports has found a way to move things forward by removing humans from the 3D capture workflow. Recently, SPAR sat down with URC Ventures CEO David Boardman, who explained the genesis of the system, what made it possible, and where things could be going next for 3D capture technology.ģD capture of a stockpile using a fixed-camera system. Once the system has taken measurements, it sends alerts or notifications to the pertinent system to trigger re-orders and supply the system with the inventory levels necessary to organize delivery. The Stockpile Reports system allows users to stage fixed cameras (or even iPhones) as needed “in warehouses, shipping terminals, and storage yards to automatically calculate inventory levels.” The measurement process can be scheduled to run automatically as much as you want throughout the day, and even to trigger when motion is detected. The Stockpile Reports for Logistics product is a newcomer to the a surprisingly small group of products that use low-cost, fixed cameras for 3D capture. That’s a lot to happen in such a short span of time-and a new Stockpile Reports solution shows why the industry not nearly done yet. We now have well-established solutions that enable users to capture photos with their smartphones and make good-enough 3D models using photogrammetric processing, not to mention handheld solutions and even autonomous mapping drones and robots. By the beginning of 2019 that had changed significantly. “Within 10 years every square centimeter of an aggregates operation will be modeled accurately in 3D and tracked every minute of every day.When I started with SPAR3D in 2014, a 3D capture workflow still required some big equipment, three guys, and at least one PhD to perform (I’m exaggerating, but you get the point).
