![]() BricsCAD is a faster, smarter, far more powerful CAD system than the one you’re using today, even in terms of basic 2D work (which most of us still do regularly). Just point the BricsCAD system to where they are on your servers, or copy them to the appropriate BricsCAD folder on your local machine - whichever works best for you. None of us want to lose that one LISP routine we’ve used for 15 years that saves us hours of work each week! In BricsCAD, all your standard configurations and custom apps still work (that includes CTB/STB files, layer states, templates, utilities, etc.). You’ve spent decades developing workflows, standards, tools, processes, and apps that make your daily work run smoothly and give you the output that you need. BricsCAD was designed from the ground up to keep the drafter, designer, and engineer productive with processes they already understand.Īutomatic Configuration and Customization Transfer While there may be a bit of work required on the CAD management end, even that’s only a matter of a few hours. Most users don’t require training of any type to work in BricsCAD - it’s that similar to what they already know. The interface, toolbars, commands, and even the keyboard shortcuts are nearly identical to the ones you’ve used for decades. One of the biggest fears people face when considering changing their CAD system is the downtime of staff learning an entirely new set of tools. This is a key feature of BricsCAD: You just open the project drawings you’re currently working on, without worry. The Open Design Alliance DWG format is the international standard for CAD files, so you never have to worry about compatibility issues or loss of data between systems, or how to collaborate with other firms. That means you can open a DWG file from your current CAD system, work on it in BricsCAD, save it, and open it in the previous CAD system with no conversions. Let’s get into some of the features in this system, and I’ll let you decide for yourself if it’s as good as I say.īricsCAD uses the Open Design Alliance DWG format as its native file type. That’s really the entire idea behind BricsCAD. ![]() ![]() OK, so if you’re still here, I think it’s safe to assume you’re interested in a better way of doing things, as long as it’s not going to have too dramatic an impact on your daily work. I promise there is one, if you’re willing to listen to the word “change” without running from the room in a screaming panic!īricsCAD may be a new CAD system for you, but before you start thinking that you’re getting some knockoff, or that you’ll have to start rebuilding your standards from scratch and retraining your staff at ridiculous expense, please bear with me and read through these bullet points:īricsCAD uses the same DWG file format you use todayīricsCAD’s commands, tools, and menus are identical to the ones you use todayīricsCAD will use all your current standards, customizations, and LISP routinesĪll your current plotting standards (line weights, color styles, etc.) work in BricsCADīricsCAD can be purchased as a perpetual (permanent!) licenseīricsCAD perpetual licenses cost far less than the annual CAD fee you pay nowīricsCAD offers network multiuser licenses with no named user requirementsīricsCAD has faster, more intelligent tools than you have in your current CAD system. We all know it, feel the frustration, and wish there was a better answer. Let me start out by saying that to anyone working in design or construction, it’s not really a surprise that there’s been a distinct lack of upgrades, and a dramatic uptick in prices, over the past decade for the most widely used CAD system. ![]() ![]() BricsCAD Offers Advanced Tools and a Familiar Feel at a Lower Cost 14 Nov, 2020 By: James Coppinger A BricsCAD Solution Partner explains why a switch from AutoCAD won’t disrupt the daily routines of drafters, designers, and engineers - and may even help them work faster. ![]()

The use of plain black flags was more common than flags with the skull and crossbones. Later, carvings of the skull and bones were used to remind people who entered that they would one day die also. Bones were used because they lasted long after the rest of the body was gone. Skulls and long bones have been displayed in catacombs, crypts, and graveyards since the Middle Ages. We all had a good laugh, me and me crew." ― Hector Barbossa īones and skulls have been a sign of death since early Rome. 'Twas then I knew for certain that he was another pirate. A red flag, with a black demon skull on it. The moment we raised our true colors, that sloop, he run up his flag, too. " So I orders me crew to run up me black flag. At some point prior to the voyage to the Fountain of Youth, Blackbeard flew a new variation, featuring a skull with flames that revealed his passion for forbidden dark magic. He later used a flag designed to intimidate his enemies, one that depicted a demonic horned skeleton holding a goblet of wine in one hand and a spear pointing to a bleeding heart in the other, as if he's toasting his victims. īlackbeard's jolly roger flying on the Queen Anne's Revenge.Īt the beginning of his pirate career, Blackbeard used the typical skull and crossbones flag. For instance, Sao Feng had two notable flags: one flag was purple and featured a golden hand holding a sword with Chinese letters next to it, while the other flag followed Edward Low's design of a black flag featuring a red skeleton dangling in the center. For different reasons at different times, different flags were chosen. Pirates were also known to change their flags, and use false flags. The most notable flag of Edward Low was a red skeletal figure on a black background. "Aye, Cap'n!" ― Jack Sparrow and Kwame Įvery pirate ship flies a trademark variation of the skull-and-crossbones theme, and so every pirate captain flies his own variation of the Jolly Roger flag. " I thought it would be nice to run up me flag on our maiden voyage. The same message was sometimes conveyed by a red flag, though meant that the crew would fight to the death. Historically, the flag was flown to frighten pirates' victims into surrendering without a fight, since it conveyed the message that the attackers were outlaws who would not consider themselves bound by the usual rules of engagement-and might, therefore, slaughter those they defeated. Some Jolly Roger flags also include an hourglass, another common symbol representing death in 17th- and 18th-century Europe. This design was used by several pirates, including Captains "Black Sam" Bellamy and Edward England, but pirates often add special features to reflect their personalities.ĭespite its prominence, plain black flags were often employed by most pirates in the 17th-18th century. The most famous and traditional variation of the Jolly Roger was the skull and crossbones, a flag consisting of a human skull above two long bones (although swords were also common) set in an X-mark arrangement, usually depicted crossing each other directly under the skull, on a black background. The Jolly Roger was the name for any of various flags that pirates flown to identify themselves, usually before attacking another ship. Ready, lad?

This shape is best for long, strong nails since the tapered sides significantly weaken the nail’s natural strength. You’ll keep the fortitude the square shape provides and, at the same time, provide the softness and elegance of the oval. You can soften those edges by rounding the edges of your medium to long nails, either of which can be of any nail bed shape or finger size/shape. Squared nails, though traditional, can come off as harsh and hard. If you are going with natural, however, you need to grow you nail to a standard length. However, to achieve this look, you will need thick and wide nails (be they fake or natural). This shape not only works for a variety of nails and nail beds, it also can make the fingers look longer. Oval shape is suitable for both wide and narrow nail beds. These are best for active people, be it busy moms or athletes. It is also a sturdier shape since it is leveled and thicker, making it less prone to tears. It is best for those with a large nail bed and long nail, for, in contrast, it tends to make smaller nail beds and nails looker shorter and broader. But, it is much more, this traditional shape makes the nails look longer. One of the most common shapes, it has become synonymous with the French manicure.

This is extremely important if you hatch goose eggs! This unique addition to our incubators increases hatch rates. Active Periodic Cooling (APC) changes the temperature and humidity within the incubator to reenact the cooling and dehumidifying process that eggs would receive naturally from the mother bird leaving the nest. During this time, the eggs cool down and release moisture. Most birds leave the nest, at least once, during incubation.

The agency for which the officer works should provide proper training in its use. Personnel are legally required to cleanse the suspect with eye wash after dispersing a chemical agent. Be prepared to administer decontamination procedures after spraying someone. Spray the suspect’s face for only a few seconds. Use it sparingly to avoid spraying innocent bystanders. Understanding how to use pepper spray properly is important. If security personnel cannot restrain a subject with control holds, they may have to resort to oleoresin capsicum (OC), or pepper spray. Never use chokeholds it’s hard to judge how the pressure of a chokehold distresses different individuals. Be sure not to restrict their breathing or circulation. Use enough weight and strength to restrict their ability to move, but not so much as to hurt them. When using control holds, it’s vital not to get too aggressive in order to avoid injuries to both you and the suspect. If the subject is much larger than an officer, it’s important to have backup close by. These holds limit the subject’s movement, giving security personnel control of their arms and hands. Control holds allow an officer to incapacitate a threatening suspect. If a security officer decides it’s time to use physical force, they must remember only to use the necessary amount needed to gain control of the suspect - no more, no less. This type of suspect is a passive resistor - they won’t respond to verbal commands, but they give in when an officer initiates physical contact. ![]() Level TwoĪn agitated suspect who gives the impression that they may lash out at security staff or other individuals requires escalation. Avoid this at all costs professionalism is always the right choice. However, if even one officer begins acting inappropriately and is seen as a threat, negative behavior can escalate quickly and the use of force will be unnecessarily raised. If personnel have received proper training and know how to conduct themselves, the public will consider them non-threatening and they will behave accordingly. A security officer posted around a facility provides a calming influence. The mere presence of an officer often makes any incident settle down fairly quickly. Knowing how to use verbal commands efficiently and with authority allows officers to subtly gain control of a situation. Most encounters security officers handle only require verbal commands, as the majority of people don’t want to cause trouble. This type of suspect is considered passive compliant. If the subject is not acting aggressively and complies with an officer’s requests, there is no need to escalate this encounter to a higher level. The lowest level of the use of force continuum involves using no physical force at all. We’ll examine each level of the use of force continuum, when it should be applied and how to get suspects to cooperate based on their initial level of compliance (or lack thereof). Being well versed in the proper use of force makes an officer’s job much easier. The use of force continuum is relevant in all aspects of law enforcement, security or any other occupation in the protective services field. It is vital for personnel to know how to read a suspect’s behavior so they can react accordingly and not cause the situation to spiral out of control. Knowing when it’s time to apply more force is just as important as knowing when to calm things down using de-escalation techniques. Escalation and de-escalationĮscalation and de-escalation are also integral to the use of force continuum. Fluency in methods like verbal self-defense can alleviate tensions between security personnel and suspects, limiting the necessary amount of force needed to achieve compliance. Their department should offer constant educational instruction that covers all aspects of the job. Security personnel also do not have the power to arrest a disruptive person and could get in trouble if they try.Īs a result of these limitations, security officers must rely on proper and continuous training. Their agency may not even allow physical contact with suspects. Some are not allowed to carry tasers, nightsticks or handcuffs. They typically don’t have access to weapons like handguns and rifles. Security officers, on the other hand, are more limited in what they can do. Police officers working the streets have many tools at their disposal due to the inherent dangers of their job. The use of force continuum differs greatly for officers in different fields of service. ![]() |
