Yep, my grandfather Daniel Webb Matthews worked there as a machinist. They kind of left Winston in the 1980's but still lots of history. Lots of the nicer older houses are from that era.

Obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD) is an anxiety disorder characterized by intrusive thoughts that produce uneasiness, apprehension, fear, or worry, by repetitive behaviors aimed at reducing the associated anxiety, or by a combination of such obsessions and compulsions. Symptoms of the disorder include excessive washing or cleaning; repeated checking; extreme hoarding; preoccupation with Repping.

California Institute of Technology has patented a new camera technology to replace the current cameras on the insect-sized spy drones in the US military. Funded by NASA and Pentagon, these new micro-sized digital cameras using lesser energy, would be a revolutionary way to design the tiny surveillance drones of the military. The technology syncs all the components of a camera i.e. the sensors, circuits and microchips, on a single efficient chip, radio-controlled from about a km away and thus make for a better and effective low-power inclusion in the spy flyers.
