Every year, a lot of graduates come to many metro cities of India like Chennai, Delhi,
Bangalore, Gurgaon, etc. in search of jobs. Once they have their dream job in hand,
the next step is to find a rented apartment where they can live a life comfortably.
However, it is hard to live at a place with no comforts and convenience. Buying
refrigerator, cooler and television is not an easy task though. You can go for a
company that provides all these appliances on rent. Rentickle, a new name in this
segment not only provides electrical appliances and furniture on rent. From here, you
can also avail a rental TV stand in Gurgaon.
Rental TV Stand in Gurgaon:
Getting a TV trolley from here is so much easy. You just need to do a payment of Rs
329 every month and the TV stand is all yours. Buying the same TV trolley from the
market will otherwise cost you between Rs 1500 – Rs 2500. For students, bachelors or
all the major comforts of a modern house that too in minimum possible cost.
Getting a rental TV stand in Gurgaon will further relieve you from the tension of
stuffing unnecessary furniture in your home. In case you have to leave the town for
some reason, you can return back the stand to the rented company with no loss,
which might not be the case if you opt to purchase it.

Lights in the big city
Night photography refers to photographs taken outdoors between dusk and dawn. Night photographers generally have a choice between using artificial light and using a long exposure, exposing the scene for seconds, minutes, and even hours in order to give the film or digital sensor enough time to capture a usable image. With the progress of high-speed films, higher-sensitivity digital image sensors, wide-aperture lenses, and the ever-greater power of urban lights, night photography is increasingly possible using available light.

Projecto para discussão. Constituição politica da Monarchia Portugueza, feita pelas Côrtes Geraes, Extraordinarias, e Constituintes reunidas em Lisboa no anno de 1821. Promulgada a [blank space] de [blank space] do mesmo anno.
Lisbon, Na Imprensa Nacional, 1821. - 8°, early plain gray wrappers (spain almost completely gone). Woodcut Portuguese royal arms on title page. Some minor soiling and small hole to blank portion of title page. Uncut. Very good to fine condition. 74 pp., (2 ll.). *** Draft document for the first Portuguese Constitution, the hallmark of which was the triumph of liberalism. This draft appears to exist in at least three editions, one of which is an 8º volume, also published by the Imprensa Nacional, without date [1821?] of 118 pp., (1 l.). All editions of the Projecto are rare; considerably more so than the first edition of the 1822 constitution, revised from this Projecto. "The Constitution of 1822 was a long document with 240 articles. It mainly followed the Spanish constitution of 1812 . to assert the sovereignty of the nation and admit the independence of the three powers-the legistative, the executive, and the judicial . This constitution . was too progressive and too democratic for its time . it lasted for less than two years in its first phase."-Oliveira Marques, History of Portugal, II, 44-5.This "discussion document" contains 217 articles and is dated 15 June 1821. The laws are to govern Portugal and her dominions, though the draft document does not include the delegation of executive powers in Brazil (título IV, capítulo II, articles 128-132), and command of the army is allocated to the king (not the Côrtes). One of the aims of the Administrative Council was to catechise the Indian tribes in Brazil.The revised, expanded version of this Constitution was decreed by the general, extraordinary and constitutional Côrtes on September 23, 1822 and accepted by D. João VI on October 1 of the same year. This is the Constitution that the Andradas and other Brazilian deputies refused to sign. Initially welcomed by Brazilians, the new constitution unexpectedly hastened Brazilian independence. Three days before the Supplemento was published in Lisbon, the Côrtes declared the Brazilian government subordinate to its will. D. João's departure for Portugal, the establishment of a separate government under D. Pedro, the Côrtes's increasing efforts to control Brazilian affairs, and the refusal of the Brazilian representatives, led by the Andradas, to sign the new constitution led Brazil to declare its independence in 1822.*** Not in Innocêncio.

I know, at this temperature and humidity, it is not very conducive to grill or even light the fireplace outdoors. I do not also have those kind of fancy outdoor fireplaces to enjoy a quiet evening with the family. We do have a small grill to serve as a grill and a mock fireplace if we need to. I think that will suffice for now because it is summer. We can probably consider having those mini fireplace you can put outdoors or in the house when the climate changes.
I told my husband that if we ever go back in the Philippines for our retirement, I do want an outdoor fireplace to complement my grilling area. My husband loves hosting parties and having one will be great.

Azzaro was created in the image of its founder, Loris Azzaro,a Tunisia born Sicilian. Azzaro is the quintessential sun-infused brand of the Mediterranean. Beyond fashion, Azzaro has, from its inception incarnated a chic and jet-setting life style, synonymous with present-day luxury. This art of living gave birth to the powerful Azzaro brand expressed through a universal and assertive male dimension in fragrances and mens ready-to-wear fashions on the one hand, and through resplendent womens fashions on the other.
Azzaro pour Homme by Azzaro is Aromatic Fougere after shave for men. Azzaro pour Homme was launched in 1978. It  was created by Gerard Anthony, Martin Heiddenreich and Richard Wirtz. Top notes are caraway, orris, lavender, clary sage, basil, anise, bergamot and lemon; middle notes are sandalwood, juniper berries, patchouli, vetiver, cedar and cardamom; base notes are leather, tonka bean, amber, musk and oakmoss.

Abscess remedy that worked for me:
1. Floss between teeth to clear a path for the good stuff to do its work.
2. Dip toothbrush in colloidal silver and brush affected area... swish through your teeth and hold for a few minutes before spitting (or swallowing).
3. Apply thin slice of garlic between tooth and gum for about 5 minutes, swishing through your teeth...chew it up as it loses it's zing (Do Not leave raw garlic in your mouth this way when you go to sleep or for a long period of time- It'll eat right through your skin leaving a raw painful area that'll take days to heal...trust me)
4. Buy some tea tree oil toothpicks (I prefer 'Thursday Plantation' chewing sticks. Chew on them through the day to keep your mouth fresh and clear of bad stuff and swish that around through your teeth occasionally as well.
This simple process knocked out a recurring abscess that I'd had for about a year (keeping it at bay with garlic only) and I haven't needed a dentist.
Of course, if your abscess has progressed too far, you'd be wise to just pony up for the dental visit. Hope this helps someone as it did me.

Ted Leonsis reaches out to Comcast in bid for Washington Wizards
Comcast is one of several companies that have been approached by Washington Capitals owner Ted Leonsis as he looks to secure financing to buy majority interest in the NBA Wizards and the Verizon Center following the Nov. 24 death of longtime Wizards owner Abe Pollin.
Leonsis contacted the cable giant late last year to gauge its interest in extending the Capitals' television rights package with Comcast SportsNet Mid-Atlantic, a deal that currently runs through at least 2015.
Talks with Comcast are in the early stages; the two sides have met twice. While they are still far apart, a deal could represent one of several financing options for Leonsis as he seeks to buy the NBA team and arena, according to several sources.
"Ted is very well-connected in town and either knows or has access to everybody," said Phil de Picciotto, president at the suburban Washington-based Octagon. "I would imagine that he places a premium on keeping ownership as local as possible."
Leonsis' Lincoln Holdings investment group already owns 44 percent of Washington Sports & Entertainment, the holding company that controls the Wizards and the Verizon Center.
Leonsis has the first right to buy the remaining 56 percent stake of Washington Sports & Entertainment under an agreement with the Pollin estate. Pollin's 56 percent stake could be worth as much as $500 million, sources told SportsBusiness Journal, putting the total value of the Wizards and Verizon Center at nearly $900 million.
While a final price of the Wizards and the arena has not yet been determined, Leonsis is still the odds-on favorite to buy the remaining share of the team and the arena despite allowing an initial deadline to lapse last week.
Leonsis has two more opportunities to buy the team and arena. If appraisers picked by Leonsis and the Pollin family can't agree on a price, he could opt to pay the price set by a third, independent appraiser. Or, he could let the team hit the open market, where he still retains the right of first refusal.
Both Comcast and Allen & Co.'s Steve Greenberg, who is advising Leonsis, declined to comment. Goldman Sachs is representing the Pollin family.
One way for Leonsis to finance the deal could be to have Comcast front money to help pay for the 56 percent of Washington Sports & Entertainment in exchange for extending the Capitals TV deal.
In addition to holding the Capitals' TV rights, Comcast SportsNet Mid-Atlantic holds the local TV rights for the Wizards, also through at least 2015.
As an added incentive, Comcast Spectacor's Global Spectrum arena management division could be hired to manage Verizon Center. Washington Sports & Entertainment currently owns and operates the arena.
Ownership of the Verizon Center is a crucially important component for Leonsis, who pays rent as a tenant with the Capitals.
"It is extremely difficult, if not impossible, to make money with franchises where you don't control the building, particularly for sports that are played inside," de Picciotto said.
Comcast would not get a stake in the team or arena, according to the initial talks. It's not known whether Leonsis asked about obtaining an equity stake in the regional sports network.
In other markets, Comcast jointly owns regional sports networks with local pro sports teams.
In Chicago, the Cubs, White Sox, Bulls and Blackhawks each owns a part of CSN Chicago, and the San Francisco Giants own part of CSN Bay Area. In Philadelphia, Comcast owns the 76ers, the arena and a regional sports network. In New York, it holds a stake in SportsNet New York with the New York Mets.
The deal to have an RSN front the money to a team in exchange for broader TV rights is not unique. Earlier this year, Fox Sports Net tried to offer Texas Rangers owner Tom Hicks a cash advance to help him with financial troubles. According to local press reports at the time, MLB stepped in to block the move.
In the mid-1990s, FSN floated cash advances to several teams in exchange for longer TV rights. The teams generally used the money to help pay for player contracts, such as in 1996, when Shaquille O'Neal signed with the Los Angeles Lakers, and in 1997, when the Colorado Avalanche signed Joe Sakic.
FSN also floated the MLB Rangers an advance in 2000 to help the club pay for Alex Rodriguez's contract.
A rights extension would further solidify CSN Mid-Atlantic's highest-rated programming, as competition with rival RSN Mid-Atlantic Sports Network intensifies. MASN holds the rights to the MLB Nationals and Orioles and would relish the opportunity to bid on the Wizards and Capitals when their rights come up.
Talks between Greenberg and Goldman Sachs are expected to continue, and should Leonsis complete the deal to buy the Wizards and the arena, it would transform the 53-year-old into one of the top power brokers in sports.

Kourtney Kardashian Did NOT Party With "Mystery Men," Despite Report
Kourtney Kardashian did NOT party with "mystery men," despite a clueless new report. Gossip Cop can easily correct the claim.
As Gossip Cop reported, Kardashian attended her sister Kendall Jenner's 20th birthday bash on Monday. Held at The Nice Guy in Los Angeles, family members and high-profile friends were in attendance. But according to the Daily Mail, Kardashian had a "blast with mystery men."
Referring to a snapshot Kardashian shared on Instagram, the British tabloid wrote the reality star "seemed to be putting her drama with ex Scott Disick behind her as she enjoyed a dance with a mystery man," adding she "can be seen throwing her head back in laughter as she dances with one mystery man, who has his hand on the small of her back." In another photo, the outlet says Kardashian was "glowing" with another unidentified man.
While there's no question that Kardashian seemed to have a great time, the paper's implication that there was something transpiring between her and the "mystery men" is laughably off-base. Why? Well, they aren't "mystery men" at all.
The aforementioned dance partner was Scotty Cunha, a hairstylist who frequently works with Kardashian and her sisters, and sometimes joins them at special gatherings such as this one. The second gentleman is none other than Simon Huck. The name should be familiar to an outlet like the Daily Mail, considering he's a publicist who had his own show on E!.
Oh, and did we mention both Cunha and Huck are openly gay? The British paper has just once again proven to be less than knowledgeable when it comes to celebrity affairs, and more interested in sensationalism.

Really impressed and very happy with this dog crate. Bought for a Staffordshire Bull terrier puppy for her to have her own space to settle in to our family life. It will do her as somewhere to go when she is fully grown too, I'll leave the door open for freedom, as it is a very good size indeed. Would wholeheartedly recommend!
Perfect choice posted on 31/08/2016 by taclarke100
We bought this cage for our two cavalier king Charles puppies, one aged five months and one aged ten weeks. This cage is ideal for them both for both travelling and sleeping thought he ten week pup has't learned to appreciate the benefits of a night's uninterrupted sleep yet! This is the second cage bought from Pet Planet along with other products and we are impressed with all aspects of customer service from quality of products to speed of delivery.

Excellent Cage! posted on 09/06/2016 by Helluvalassie
Never ever used a cage before. Brought my 8 week old Shi Tzuh/Poodle Cilla home and I kept the cage door open with her little bed & puppy pad inside. Started to throw tiny treats into the cage and she began hopping in and out even without treats. At bedtime I put her in, closed doors and she started yelping rather loudly so I put a blanket over the cage leaving the front open. She immediately stopped crying and we never heard a sound out of her all night. She goes to bed at night on her own now and that's just after 2 weeks. Cage is well made and bigger than anticipated. I am purchasing a 2nd one for my caravan. It's excellent value for money.

The present invention relates generally to testing of integrated circuits and, more particularly, to cleaning probe cards using laser ablation.
In the integrated circuit industry, integrated circuits are manufactured on semiconductor wafers. These integrated circuits must be electrically probed in order to determine that the integrated circuits are functioning properly. In order to probe an integrated circuit, the wafer is placed into a test apparatus which contains a probe card. The probe card contains conductive needles which are used to make electrical contact to exposed conductive top portions of the integrated circuits. The top surface of the integrated circuits contains both dielectric and conductive materials. Through the course of testing, the probe needles are brought into contact with the dielectric and conductive material on the top surface. Portions of this dielectric and conductive material from the top surface of the wafer will adhere to the tips of the probe needles. As this dielectric and conductive residue coats the tip of the probe needles, the contact resistance of the test interconnections increases whereby yield can decrease and integrated circuit (IC) testing can become inconsistent over time.
In order to clean the residue off of the tips of the probe needles, several prior art techniques can be used. In a first form, the probe needles can be scraped against a stone burnishing pad. While the burnishing of the probe needles against a stone pad can reduce the amount of residue formed on the tip of the probe needles, this abrasive operation has several disadvantages. First, when using a burnishing operation, portions of the probe needle are actually ground away along with the residue, thereby reducing the effectiveness and life time of the probe needles. In addition, the burnishing operation does not result in uniform cleaning of all of the probe needles which are attached to the probe card. In addition, over time, the stone burnishing pad will eventually become coated with the residue which was removed from previously-cleaned probe needles. Once this residue on the stone burnishing pad becomes significant, the effectiveness of the stone burnishing pad for removing residue on probe needles is significantly reduced. In a worst case, when the stone burnishing pad is significantly coated with residue, the stone burnishing operation can actually place more residue on the probe needles rather than remove residue from the probe needles. Due to the down pressure and lateral motion required for burnishing operations, the probe needles can be mechanically damaged or misaligned by changing their position during the burnishing process.
In another form, the prior art can replace stone burnishing with a light sandpaper clean or a camel hair brushing operation. Both of these techniques also suffer from the same disadvantages previously discussed for stone burnishing.
In another form, a chemical clean, such as an alcohol clean or other solvent clean, can be used in an attempt to reduce residue on the probe card needles. In an alcohol clean, experimentation has shown that adequate probe needle cleaning is not achieved. Regarding any solvent clean, the solvent used to remove residue on probe needles could be destructive to the material used to mount the probe needles onto the probe card and destructive to the probe card material. Therefore, use of solvent cleans could inadvertently result in significant damage to the entire probe card assembly resulting in replacement of the probe card assembly. In addition, the solvent cleans are messy, and cannot be performed in situ with the wafer testing/probing process. Solvent and alcohol cleans suffer from a significant cycle time disadvantage and throughput disadvantage when compared to other alternatives.
Therefore, a need exists for an improved method for cleaning probe needles and like integrated circuit conductive contacts.

Generally, the present invention is an apparatus or method for cleaning probe needles or conductive layers of integrated circuits using laser ablation. Laser oblation has several advantages over the mechanical and/or chemical cleans taught in the background of the present invention. Laser ablation is an effective way to remove residue from the tips of probe needles. In addition, while effectively removing residue from probe needles, laser oblation will not wear probe needle tips over time. By not wearing the probe needle tips, the life of the probe card assembly can be increased. By changing the power, wavelength, pulse duration, number of pulses, etc., of the laser source, laser ablation can be selectively adjusted to remove specific types of material off of the probe needles without damaging or removing the native material of the probe needle. Since the laser oblation technique taught herein is not mechanically intensive or stressful, alignment and mechanical strength of the probe needles will not be adversely affected by the residue cleaning process. Unlike other prior art techniques, the laser oblation technique taught herein can be used in a clean environment (below class 10,000). Furthermore, the laser oblation cleaning process taught herein can be performed either in situ in conjunction with probing operations or off-line at a separate station. In yet another form, laser oblation can be easily performed in an off-site manner separate from probing, manufacturing, and test operations. The light source used to perform laser oblation can be centrally localized and distributed via fiber optics, mirrors, or like optical systems, to many prober systems thereby saving equipment costs. In addition, the laser oblation process is quick and effective thereby increasing throughput and yield. In addition, the laser ablation technique is environmentally safe relative to the chemical clean processes discussed in the background.
The present invention can be further understood with reference to FIGS. 1 through 7.
FIG. 1 illustrates a cross section of a top portion of a semiconductor wafer 110. Wafer 110 comprises a base portion 112. Base portion 112 can contain many different dielectric layers and conductive layers as are necessary to form electrical devices on the surface of a substrate. Base portion 112 contains metal and polysilicon interconnects between electrical devices and to electrically route these electrical devices to create a useful integrated circuit. Base portion 112 also contains all the necessary contacts and via interconnects used to route electrical signals with conductive material. On top of base portion 112 is a conductive layer 114 which is lithographically patterned and etched. In a preferred form, the conductive layer 114 is a top level of metal on an integrated circuit (IC) and is used to form exposed bond pads or test pads. Conductive layer 114 has a conductive exposed top surface 120 as illustrated in FIG. 1. A top surface of the wafer 110 is passivated using one or more passivation materials. FIG. 1 illustrates a phosphosilicate glass layer (PSG) 122, a silicon nitride layer 124, and a polyimide layer 126. It should be noted that any one of the layers 122 through 126 can be used alone or in combination to passivate a top portion of a semiconductor wafer.
FIG. 1 illustrates probe needles 128. In order to probe conductive surfaces of the wafer 110, the probe needles 128 are brought into contact with layer 114 through bond pad openings 118 of FIG. 1. The conductive layer 114 can be made of one or more of aluminum, copper, silver, gold, titanium, tungsten, metal alloys, or like metallic materials. On top of the conductive layer 114 is an exposed conductive surface 120. This exposed conductive surface 120 can contain a native metallic oxide due to exposure to the atmosphere.
In order to effectively make electrical contact between the probe needle 128 and the conductive region 114 of FIG. 1, either mechanical pressure and/or abrasion needs to be performed between the needle 128 and the conductive layer 114. This abrasive operation or vertical pressure will remove portions of the native oxide from region 120, organic residue from on top of the region 114, and/or conductive material from the layer 114 from the wafer 110 and deposit this removed material upon the probe needles 128. This conductive and dielectric residue deposited on the probe needle 128 will result in increased resistance through the probe needles over time and reduced test effectiveness. In another form, gross misalignment of the probe needles 128 can result in contact between probe needles 128 and the layers 122-126. In this case, portions of the layers 122 through 126 are usually deposited upon a tip or surface of probe needles 128. In any case, the residue formed on probe needles 128 from abrasion with any of the layers 114, 120, 122, 124, and 126 is disadvantageous and should be removed periodically from probe needles 128. Maximization of integrated circuit yield and improvement in the effectiveness of the test procedure are directly proportional to the cleanliness of the tips of the probe needles 128.
FIG. 2 illustrates an apparatus 10 which can be used to probe a plurality of integrated circuits formed on a wafer while insuring that the probe needles of a probe card are adequately clean to insure high yield and adequate testability. The test apparatus 10 has a test head 12. Test head 12 provides mechanical stability in the test system while also providing electrical interconnections to an external test system or prober. A probe card 14 is mounted to test head 12. In most forms, the probe card 14 is attached to the test head 12 via a load board which is not illustrated in FIG. 2 for the sake of simplicity. Mounted to the probe card 14 are a plurality of probe needles 16 having probe tips. The probe needles 16 are similar to the probe needles 128 illustrated in FIG. 1. These probe needles 16, in a manner similar to the probe needles 128 of FIG. 1, are used to make electrical contact to an exposed surface of a conductive layer on a wafer.
FIG. 2 illustrates a wafer chuck 20. The chuck 20 contains a mechanism by which a wafer can be firmly fixed upon its top surface. This mechanism for affixing a wafer is typically a vacuum within the chuck 20. Chuck 20 is also coupled to X, Y, and Z motion control systems. Therefore, the chuck 20 can move up and down in FIG. 2 and in any X, Y planar direction along the surface of the probe card 14. A wafer 18 is illustrated as being mounted on chuck 20. Attached to the chuck 20 is a mechanical mount 24. Mechanical mount 24 is used to affix a vacuum line 23 and a fiber optic cable 26. The fiber optic cable 26 will selectively provide light emitted from laser light source 28 to a probe tip. This light is then used to ablate and clean the probe tip as taught herein. The vacuum line 23 is enabled to remove ablated residue from the areas surrounding the test apparatus 10 while the cleaning process is occurring. Therefore, vacuum line 23 allows for the laser ablation technique to be used in clean or semi-clean wafer fabrication environments. In non-cleanroom environments, the vacuum line 23 is optional. The laser source 28 can be a laser source dedicated specifically for a single test apparatus 10 or can be a laser source which provides laser light to a plurality of test stations, as illustrated in FIG. 2, in a time multiplexed manner. Specific workings of the laser source 28 are discussed in reference to FIG. 3. The chuck 20 is mechanically attached to a stage 22 as illustrated in FIG. 2.
Since laser light can be harmful to operators, a stop structure 30 is used to contain the laser light within the confines of the test apparatus 10, as illustrated in FIG. 2. The stop structure is any material which will stop the further progression of the laser light. When operating, the chuck 20 will move the wafer in the X, Y, and Z direction in order to place probe tips into contact with an integrated circuit on the wafer 18, as illustrated in FIG. 1. After performing test operations, the probe tips are disengaged from the wafer 18 and the chuck 20 is realigned to a new position. The chuck is then moved in the vertical direction to contact the probe tips to another integrated circuit located on the wafer 18. After probing one or more integrated circuits on the wafer 18, the probe tips begin to be coated with the residue discussed with respect to FIG. 1. The detection of this residue and determination of when the cleaning process is to occur is discussed with reference to FIG. 4. When the cleaning operation is required in the apparatus of FIG. 2, the chuck 20 will disengage the probe tips from the wafer 18. The chuck 20 will then be moved such that the fiber optic cable 26 is aligned with one or more of the probe tips. The laser source 28 is then directed to one or more of the probe tips. It should be appreciated that cleaning of the probe tips can be done in a time serial manner by computer control or manual control in order to ablate the residue on the probe tips of the probe needles 16. Chuck 20 can be computer controlled in the X and Y direction so that all the residue on the prober tips of probe needles 16 is eventually ablated by the light provided by the fiber optic cable 26. The ablation process will vaporize dielectric material and other residue material from probe tips of the tungsten probe needles 16 while not affecting the tungsten material which forms the probe needles 16. The tungsten probe needles 16 are not affected since tungsten has a higher melting point than the targeted residue. Typically, the probe needles are made of tungsten, beryllium copper, copper, tungsten alloys, or like materials. As different materials are selected for the probe needles 16, different laser light sources can need to be selected.
Although FIG. 2 illustrates a testing apparatus 10 in accordance with one embodiment of the invention, it is important to note that the laser ablation process and apparatus as illustrated in FIG. 2 can be used in many applications related to the integrated circuit industry. As illustrated in FIG. 2, the laser oblation process can be used to clean the probe tips on probe needles on any prober apparatus. In another embodiment, the laser oblation technique utilized in FIG. 2 can be used to clean connectors used to make electrical contact to packaged integrated circuit die in final test. The laser oblation technique can be used to clean conductive C4 bumps or conductive external terminals of packaged integrated circuits. The laser oblation taught in FIG. 2 can also be used on multiple die probe cards used in unit probe. Any type of probe configuration can be cleaned using laser ablation as taught herein. For instance, cobra probe needles and cantilever probe needles can both be cleaned by the laser ablation technique discussed herein.
This technique can also be used to improve electrical contacts for burn-in operations and like testing methodologies. The laser oblation technique taught herein can be used to laser oblate residue and native oxide off of bond pads just prior to rendering electrical contact. This laser oblation of bond pads allows for improved electrical contact when performing probe operations.
In another embodiment, the fiber optic cable 26 of FIG. 2 can be mounted within the testing system 10 in different manners. FIG. 2 illustrates that the fiber optic cable is mounted to the chuck 20. However, the fiber optic cable 26 can be mounted within the test head 12 and focused upon the probe card 14 and probe needles 16 via a mirror apparatus. In another form, the fiber optic cable can be mounted to the stage 22. In this embodiment, the chuck 20 will move laterally away from the probe tips exposing the probe tips to access by an underlying fiber optic cable mounted to the stage 22. A mirrored system can be used to focus the laser provided from the stage 22 to the individual probe tips as are necessary to perform a laser oblation.
The apparatus of FIG. 2 illustrates an in situ method for performing laser oblation which has throughput advantages. In another embodiment, off-line on-site laser ablation can be performed using an apparatus similar to that illustrated in FIG. 2. In an off-line on-site process, the probe card 14 is removed from the test head 12. The probe card 14 is then provided to another system which contains the laser source 28, the fiber optic cable 26 and a laser control device such as a light pen. An operator can use the light pen which is attached to the fiber optic cable to selectively provide the light source to the probe needles 16 using microscopic or like optical alignment which is either manual or automatic. In yet another form, off-line off-site laser oblation can be performed. When using this method of cleaning probe cards, the probe card 14 is removed from the test head 12. The probe card 14 is then provided to an off-site facility wherein the off-site facility will laser ablate the probe needles 16 using a stand-alone laser oblation system. This stand-alone laser oblation system will also comprise the laser source 28, the fiber optic cable 26, and a laser control device such as a light pen mounted at the end of the fiber optic cable 26. This off-site off-line station can either be manual or computer-controlled.
FIG. 3 illustrates in more detail the laser source 28 illustrated in FIG. 2. The light source 28 contains one or more excimer laser sources 40. The excimer laser source 40 provides a laser light beam through a telescope 42. The telescope 42 contains optics 44 and 46 which presents the laser light through a mount 48. The mount 48 is used to mechanically align the incoming laser light to a fiber optic input of a fiber optic cable 26. The fiber optic cable is then routed to the prober as illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 3. As illustrated in FIG. 2, a single excimer laser source 40 can be used to provide laser light to one or more fiber optic cables which service separate probe stations. In order to perform this function, mechanical or optical systems can be used to allow the excimer laser 40 to be aligned to more than one optical cable 26.
The fiber optic cable 26 provides the light to the imaging optic and mount 24 as illustrated in FIG. 3 and FIG. 2. An imaging optic 50 is used to focus the light from the end of the fiber optic cable 26. Computer control is used to move the mount 24 and the imaging optic 50 so that one or more probe needles 16 are ablated at any one time or serially in time. There are many commercially available systems which can be used to provide a laser source and any of these systems can be used as the laser source 28 of FIG. 2.
FIG. 4 illustrates a typical test procedure which could be followed by an operator when probing integrated circuits on a semiconductor wafer. In a first step 60, the probe card is mounted on the test head as illustrated in FIG. 2. In a next step 62, the movable chuck 20 is used to align the probe needles 16 to a predetermined integrated circuit on the wafer 18. Using Z directional control, the chuck is vertically moved in step 64 so that the probe tips of the probe needles 16 contact the integrated circuit which was aligned in step 62. After performing probe tip-to-wafer contact in step 64, the resistance is measured in a step 66. The resistance in step 66 can be measured, in one form, by reverse biasing the input protection diodes of the integrated circuit (IC) under test. When reverse biasing these diodes, a current is created that is proportional to the contact resistance between the probe tips of the probe needles 16 and the wafer 18. If this resistance is outside of a threshold range, then a laser oblation operation is performed via step 68 of FIG. 4 to reduce resistance created by residue on the probe tips. If the resistance of the probe needles 16 are within a threshold range, the wafer is probed and tested as illustrated in step 70 of FIG. 4.
Once all the integrated circuits have been tested on one wafer, a determination is made as to whether the last wafer has been tested in a step 72. If more wafers require testing, the steps 62 through 72 are repeated until no more wafers are queued for testing. After the last wafer has been tested within the system 10 of FIG. 2, the probe card 14 can be removed from the test head 12 as illustrated via a step 74 in FIG. 4. Once the probe card 14 is removed, off-line probe card laser ablation cleaning can be performed either on-site or off-site as discussed herein and illustrated in step 76. The step 76 is part of the standard inspection, needle alignment, and probe card maintenance performed after a significant amount of wafer testing.
There are a number of methods that can be used to determine when the probe tips of the probe needles 16 need to undergo laser ablation. A first method involves cleaning the probe tips after a specified number of probe tip-to-wafer touchdowns or test measurements have occurred. A second method involves a time limit trigger wherein the ablation occurs after a set period of time. For example, the tips can be cleaned every ten minutes regardless of frequency of use. In a third method, probe yield of IC die is monitored and ablation occurs then the probe yield falls below a selected yield value. A fourth method involves monitoring a frequency of a specific failure mode (e.g., open circuit test). If this frequency exceeds a threshold, laser oblation processing is initiated. A fifth method is a visual inspection method wherein an operator determines when oblation should occur on one or more probe tips. A sixth method is when a resistance determination detects that a subset of the total number of probe needles require ablation. In this case, only the subset of probe tips which are out of specification are ablated while other needles bypass ablation for improved throughput.
FIG. 5 illustrates a cantilever probe tip which has been newly manufactured and has not been used for wafer probe. As can be seen from FIG. 5, the newly provided cantilever probe needle is in a pristine condition and does not have any residue coating it.
FIG. 6 illustrates the residue which forms on the cantilever probe tip from FIG. 5 once the cantilever probe tip has been used to probe wafers as illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2 herein. This residue illustrated in FIG. 6 contains dielectric and conductive materials deposited on the probe needle due to contact with conductive and dielectric surfaces of integrated circuits. This residue must be removed from the probe needle in order to ensure reliable testing and increased integrated circuit yield.
FIG. 7 illustrates a laser ablated tip which has been laser cleaned as taught in FIGS. 1 through 4 herein. As can be seen from FIG. 7 when compared to FIG. 5, the laser ablated tip of FIG. 7 has substantially removed the residue shown in FIG. 6.
Thus it is apparent that there has been provided, in accordance with the present invention, a method and apparatus for testing integrated circuits which significantly decreases testing cycle time and significantly increases probe yield. Although the invention has been described and illustrated with reference to the specific embodiment, it is not intended that the invention be limited to these illustrative embodiments. Those skilled in the art will recognize that modifications and variations can be made with departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Therefore, it is intended that this invention encompass all variations and modifications as fall within the scope of the appended claims.

Genetic databank launches ethics frameworkBMJ 2003; 327 doi: https://doi.org/10.1136/bmj.327.7417.700 (Published 25 September 2003) Cite this as: BMJ 2003;327:700

The UK Biobank, an organisation that plans to collect genetic data from half a million volunteers aged 45-69, has launched a draft ethics and governance framework to address concerns such as confidentiality and the use of its data.
The databank aims to link its genetic data with lifestyle information and the subsequent medical history of the volunteers. The organisers hope that the resulting data can be used for research into causes of common diseases, for public health purposes, and to develop new treatments.
Since the launch of the databank last year, however, …

After an extensive consultation process, the third edition of the ASX Corporate Governance Council Principles and Recommendations (Principles and Recommendations) was released by the ASX Corporate Governance Council on 27 March 2014. Listed entities will be required to report against the third edition Principles and Recommendations – on an 'if not, why not' basis' – for financial years commencing on or after 1 July 2014.
The key amendment to the Principles and Recommendations has been the introduction of nine 'new' substantive Recommendations, including for director background checks, director induction and development, accountability of the company secretary, disclosure of internal audit or alternative internal controls and disclosure of material economic, environmental and social sustainability risks and how they are managed.
Many of the new Recommendations were captured in the commentary of the second edition Principles and Recommendations. Their elevation to Recommendations means that the company is now required to report against them.
Other important changes include the expansion of the list of factors which are to be considered when assessing director independence (including tenure factors) and clarifications of the diversity reporting obligations.
You can read our update on the third edition of the Principles and Recommendations in the May 2014 edition of Acumen.

User file stored in a folder called TEMP?
why is my user file stored in TEMP instead of the name of the user account?
|My System Specs
|17 Oct 2010
Hi found this for you to look at hope it helps;
The system creates a user profile the first time that a user logs on to a computer. At subsequent logons, the system loads the user's profile, and then other system components configure the user's environment according to the information in the profile.
Types of User Profiles
Following are the types of user profiles available in Windows 2000/Windows XP/Windows Server 2003:
In Windows 7 or later, each user profile has an associated image presented as a user tile. These tiles appear to users on the User Accounts Control Panel item and its Manage Accounts subpage.. The image files for the default Guest and default User accounts also appear here if you have Administrator access rights.
Note The Manage Accounts subpage is accessed through the Manage another account link in the User Accounts Control Panel item.
The image file appears in the user's Temp folder:

His current suck-up is far from the first. Let's take a look at what's new here in his defense of Bill DeWitt/John Mozeliak vs. Albert Pujols.
1. The claim that the team aggressively upgraded the roster. A couple of LOOGY lefties and middle-infield spare parts is NOT aggressive. Yes, it panned out for 2011. But, if Colby Rasmus bounces back to a 2009 level with Toronto let alone 2010,, long-term, this trade is a loss.
Plus, the fact that management traded another non-Tony Boy, Brendan Ryan, and wound up getting possibly worse in the middle infield, necessitating the "aggressively" upgrading. Gordon conveniently misses that.
2. He admits that team offers to Pujols were management friendly. So management friendly that the management apparently never even considered the "milestone marketing" shared profits the Yankees gave to A-Rod. Dumb and dumber, there, in my opinion.
3. As for his rhetorical questions about how the Cards might have treated Pujols at the end of the line vs. how the Angels might? Well, Jeff, you and I don't know what the Cards would do in a decade. Given the paragraph immediately above, I wouldn't hold my breath. Given that management never listened to Ozzie Smith, who had at least a halfway legit grievance vs. Tony, and never tried to play peacemaker there, to the best of my knowledge, I definitely wouldn't hold my breath on how current management might have treated Pujols in a decade.
Again, I'm not saying Pujols is a saint; he's even got bits of hypocrisy, I think. But, let's not buff Bill and Mo's apple needlessly.

Two thousand years ago, Jesus said, "Follow me." What if the 21st-century Church actually heeded that call? What would the world look like if the Church were truly on the move? Simply put, very different. But these ponderings beg one more critical question: What exactly should the Church be moving toward?
In Walking with Jesus: A Way Forward for the Church, Pope Francis' own words lead us to the answer. Francis urges us to make Jesus central in our individual lives and in the collective life of the Church - to walk toward him and ultimately to walk with him at all times and in all places.
With a foreword by Archbishop of Chicago Blase J. Cupich, Pope Francis' first major appointment in the United States, Walking with Jesus offers the Church a much-needed way forward, past its inner and outer walls, as it fearlessly follows Christ toward the future.

When a meteor storm knocks out the power grid, the supernaturally gifted become pawns in humanity's struggle for survival.
About the Book
When a meteor storm knocks out the power grid, the supernaturally gifted become pawns in humanity's struggle for survival.
The meteor storm wasn't such a big deal until a comet landed in the middle of the road. Now Darien's car is wrecked, his sister is bleeding out, and the only medical aid is at the reclusive Serran Academy.
Some say the Serrans have blood-bonds with angels. Some say they have surreal mental abilities. Some say the gods grant them elemental powers.
But when the Academy is targeted for harvesting, its secrets—and the collapse of modern civilization—are the least of Darien's worries.
"Foley does a great job of capturing readers' attention and holding it prisoner throughout the book... The dialogue, written with sarcastic wit, had me chuckling out loud throughout the book. Combined with lots of action and suspense, Sentinel is the first book in The Sentinel Trilogy that is brilliantly written."

Hello Everyone!
I will be travelling to Japan for the first time in September and staying in Tokyo for a total of 4 nights. I will be staying in Akasaka three nights, and Shinjuku for one night (my last night in Japan after returning from Kyoto). I am looking for some suggestions and advice on what to do while I am there. I am sure that I will be jetlagged when I get there, but I am going to try to sleep on the plane and take over-the-counter sleep aids to adjust as soon as possible when I get there so that I can make the most of my time.
I know that I would like to experience the nightlife in Roppongi, and visit the Tsukiji Fish Market for sushi breakfast or lunch while I am there (should I see the fish auction as well?). Aside from that, I am still trying to figure out what to do. I am interested in experiencing the Japanese culture, cuisine, and seeing amazing architecture, and historical/traditional sites. I want to have experiences very different from what I would find in a major U.S. city. I would also like to get some great photos and spend a lot of time outside walking around. I am not too interested visiting inside museums. I will be getting a JR pass and taking the train to get around the city.
Here are some places that I am considering based on my research. Please let me know your thoughts. I am definitely open to other suggestions as well. Also, do you have any suggestions on souvenirs that I cannot get in the U.S?
Watch Sumo Wrestling Match
Meiji Shrine
Yoyogi Park in Shibuya-ku
Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden
Roppongi Hills (observation deck)
Tokyo Midtown
Shinjuku (Golden Gai, Kabukicho, Kagurazaka, Nishi-Shinjuku, Shinjuku Gyoen)
Dinner and Drinks in Ebisu
Akihabara (electronics stores and cafes)
Shibuya (shopping and entertainment around Shibuya Station, nightclubs, Hachiko Exit intersection)
Ginza (Sony building)
Day trip to Nikko
Thank you in advance for your advice!

Hello Everyone!
Report Abuse
I enjoy the Nippori/Nishi-Nippori area a lot -- traditional, and a nice break from some of the faster-paced quarters in Tokyo. You might also want to check out one of the street markets, such as Ameyoko, which runs from Ueno to Okichimaki stations. Finally, when you're in the Shinjuku area, a side trip to Harajuku is certainly worthwhile for some first-rate people-watching.
Also, if you are getting the JR pass only to go to Kyoto and travel around Tokyo, you might consider the alternative of the Open Ticket (also sometimes called a Flex Pass) that is valid for a round-trip from Tokyo to Kyoto for 21,000Y. Travel is available on Nozomi trains (which cut 20-30 mins off the travel time compared to Japan Pass travel), but you must travel in the unreserved seating cars. This would not be a good idea for most tourists during peak travel (Golden Week), but is perfectly reasonable the rest of the time. The Open Ticket also includes a 1-day Kyoto sightseeing pass. For info, see http://www.japanican.com/tours/tourdetail.aspx?tc=GMT01TYOOVJOPENTK&kw=openticket.
Report Abuse
Thanks, DonTopaz! These are very helpful suggestions.
I Googled the Ameyoko street market, and it looks like one of the outside markets in Mexico (Mexico City, Puebla) with food, souvenirs and inexpensive clothes. I'll definitely plan to visit. Do you recommend getting any souvenirs or goods from that area?
I also searched Harajuku, and it seems like Sunday would be the best day for people watching, when people dress up in costumes like anime characters and punk musicians.
I don't know if the Open Ticket (Flex Pass) would work for me because I will be traveling to the Izu Peninsula for a couple days from Kyoto, before coming back to Tokyo. What do you think? Also, I will be in Japan for 9 days and the JR Pass is only for 7 days, so I will have to decide when to start it? Any advice on this would be very helpful.
Thanks, and I am looking forward to everyone's responses!
Report Abuse
The JR Pass wouldn't do you much good past JR Atami or Ito stations on the Izu Peninsula. Trains there run on private lines so flex pass might help and either way you would pay a supplement fare on the private lines.
Figure out your train fares on www.hyperdia.com
If you start your pass the day you arrive you can use it for the NEX train from NRT into Tokyo or on the last day on your way to NRT if you start it two days later. Usually people will start the pass for the day you leave Tokyo via train but it of course would all depend on your itinerary. You can also ride the limo bus into Tokyo form NRT all with information here:
If buying your tickets for the bus or trains on that first day you should take advantage of the Limo Bus + Metro Pass or the NEX/Suica card deal explained in the sites above.
Some info if you haven't seen already about Ameyoko and the Harajuku girls.
and a little about Izu
Report Abuse
Hawaii, helpful and informative as always!
It looks like I could use the NEX/Suica Round Trip card deal. The NEX for when I first arrive to Narita to get to my hotel in Akasaka, and the last day in Japan (on the 9th day) returning to Narita from my hotel near Shinjuku Station. Does the NEX run right to Akasaka and Shinjuku Station? Then, I could use the 1,500 yen preloaded on the Suica smart card to get around on the subway touring Tokyo for the first two days. I would get the JR Pass to start on the 3rd day (for 7 days) to travel around the remaining time in Tokyo, to and while in Kyoto, and to JR Atami when traveling to Izu from Kyoto. Does this make sense?
Based on the scenario I mentioned above, I am also considering a day trip from Tokyo to either Nikko or Mt. Fuji once my JR Pass starts on the 3rd day. Would the JR Pass cover this, and which destination do you recommend?
Thanks again for the help!
Report Abuse
Yes the NEX runs from Shinjuku station to NRT and to Tokyo station from NRT for your stop at Asakusa. I think you may have spelled wrong as Asakasa.... maybe not. If you are staying in Asakusa you can also get there from Narita via the Keisei Line link I left above which is cheaper. They also have a Tokyo Metro Pass/Rail deal.
You can get to Nikko using your JR Pass. Use the hyperdia link I left above to figure out your rail times and options.
When you say you want to go to Mt Fuji where exactly are you thinking of going to? Most tourist will go to Hakone and do the "loop" and try to catch a glimpse of Fujisan from there. Others will go to Kawaguchiko(base of Mt Fuji). See these links below for detailed information about the areas I just mentioned but as day trips both would be a long day and both places would entail using private rail lines to complete your day with Hakone costing out at more.

Dear Mr hawaiiantraveler,
The Hotel Okura is in Akasaka, which seems to be how the OP typed it. Very easy to get that mixed up with Asukasa, which is a different place. If you think you're staying in one and are actually in the other, you're in deep kaka.

Dear Mr Topaz,
You are right....I am up to my kusa in kaka

In case you were wondering how far up the body a kusa is.....not very far
Report Abuse
No problem
Does the NEX run from NRT to Akasaka?
BTW: What does "OP" stand for?
Report Abuse
The NEX does not stop in Akasaka. You would have to get off at Tokyo station and get either a taxi to the Hotel Okura or struggle with your bags through the maze that is Tokyo station to find the right subway line that will get you to the Okura...I think you would have to transfer at least once. If it were me and I was staying at the Okura I would take the limo bus from NRT to my hotel(I just felt Don Topaz cringe all the way here in HI). That way you wouldn't have to touch your bags until you get into your hotel room....they will be handled from the time you get on the bus until you are in your room and all with no tipping involved. You get on the bus at Narita and get off at the front door of the Okura all in about 90 minutes..... depending on the traffic.
The OP means Original Poster.....that would be you on this thread

you can get the limo bus/tokyo metro special tickets if you decide to take the limo bus. the tokyo metro tickets are good for one day free in the tokyo metro(subway) systems but not good on the private subway lines throughout tokyo.

how long does it take by taxi from Narita to the park Hyatt hotel ... At about 5 pm on a Friday in August. Is it hard to move luggage once we exit customs to the NEX.
Speaking as hawaiiantraveler's spiritual advisor and cannabis consultant, I can try to answer.
A taxi from Narita to the Park Hyatt at 5pm on a Friday could easily take 75 minutes or more. And the price will be at least US$200, probably more.
It is easy to move luggage to/from the NEx after exiting customs, as there are escalators to and from the train platforms.

A taxi from NRT on a Friday night would take 100 minutes or more to Shinjuku and cost around $280.00 US. They have luggage carriers at NRT which make it relatively easy to move our luggage down to the basement level. I have pictures and trip report here:
BTW I we love the Park Hyatt in Shinjuku also reviewed on this same trip report.

I have another question. Will I be able to use the JR Pass traveling around on trains within Tokyo? For instance, staying in Akasaka and taking trains to places like Giza, Shinjuku, Shibuya, Nippori/Nishi-Nippor and other areas within Tokyo. Approximately how much would this cost for two days without the JR Pass?
Thanks again!

Yes you can use your JR pass on all JR trains in Tokyo. The JR Yamanote Line would be the most useful in your case. Problem is that the Tokyo Metro is the main connector and transporter throughout the city. Use your SUICA card you get if you do the NEX/Suica deal can be used for the Metro. See here for information and details on what trains you can catch with what pass and how to use the metro and take a look at the metro map to see all the connections that are possible.....endless:

I plan to purchase the 2-way Limousine and 2-day Metro Pass deal, so I will have the Metro Pass to use while in Tokyo. Can I easily purchase this at Narita?
I used Hyperdia to calculate the costs for trains for (Tokyo to Kyoto, then to Izu, and then back to Tokyo) but it seems that the 7-day JR pass will only save me around 400 Yen. Am I calculating this correctly? Are there any other benefits of the JR pass? Are there any other alternatives that will save me more money?
Thanks again for all your help!

Yes, as you exit the customs/immigrations room you will enter a large lobby, look for the Airport Limosine Bus desk. The attendants at the desk speak some English. Just ask for the round trip limosine and metro pass. They will ask you a couple of questions like when and where are you taking the bus to and from and at what times(they will have the schedules for you to see). They will issue you the tickets and passes, then its right outside the front doors to your bus stop.....really easy. On your ticket will be a bus stop# and time. Above the stops are digital times and destinations in both English and Japanese. Just show the attendants your ticket and they will tell you what to do....again real easy.
The JR 7-day Passes are good for long distance travel. They are also good for a discount when staying at a JR affiliated hotel usually located right at or around the station areas. If you only save 400 yen then I would not get one and just buy tickets as needed thus saving the time and hassle of buying the voucher here in the States and converting it to the pass while in Japan. You can also catch the faster Nozomi shinkansen(but at a little higher price) which will get you to Kyoto a little faster. On your way back you would probably have to take a Kodama shinkansen from Kyoto if you are stopping on the Izu Peninsula.

The cheese spilled onto the grill, but clean up was a snap! A friend told me when in college she would use a Foreman grill for leftover pizza. She folded the slice and placed it on the grill. I'm going to try that too. Any other innovative recipe ideas?
