Abstract: Additive manufacturing methods and apparatus are described for the direct, automated, tooling-less fabrication of composite parts with complex shapes such as fiber-reinforced composite parts with isotropic properties. In some embodiments, fibers parallel to one axis (e.g. Z) are provided initially (e.g., as a preform) and layers are fabricated by selectively curing a resin around these fibers while adding other fibers with other orientations. In some embodiments, fibers are rendered substantially transparent by immersing them in a refractive index matching liquid, thus allowing selective curing of a resin in the presence of the fibers.

Cambridge University scientists James Watson and Francis Crick announce they have discovered the fundamental behavior and double-helix structure of DNA. Though scientists had been aware of DNA since the 1860s and its role in genetic inheritance since 1943, Watson and Crick were the first to explain how DNA works to replicate itself and pass on genes from one generation to the next.

"On this morning a friend and I had been watching the clearing mist at Lochan a’ Ghleannain in Loch Ard Forest. Near the western end of the lochan there was an area of mossy humps. I thought this small fern growing up through the frosted tips of the moss made an interesting subject. Using a tripod and a geared head I tried to find a pleasing arrangement for the image." — Pete Hyde, United Kingdom

– Residents assessed the damage left behind by the storm that rocked the city on Monday. Fredrick Kunkle and Cortlynn Stark report: “A day later, things returned to normal except for a few isolated spots, with officials saying most of the mayhem had been short-lived. But for some, the work was just beginning. Ayers Variety & Hardware was open, drawing enough power from a generator to make the cash register work. An employee escorted customers through the dimly lit store to help them find what they needed. … In Montgomery County, officials were making arrangements for permanent repairs to a giant sinkhole that opened on Belfast Road in the Woodrock neighborhood of Potomac. … In Arlington, 20th Street North and 18th Street remain closed as officials work to make repairs there. They are expected to be fixed by end of the week.” 

For the rest of the boards, always screw into the second groove from each side and fix to the frame with 64mm decking screws. Repeat this at the opposite end of the board, as this will ensure the board remains straight, and then work down the board, fixing the screws into each joist below.
