What a great condo and location to the beach!
Review submitted: December 16, 2013 Date of arrival: December 7, 2013
This was our first visit to Marco Island. We planned this trip to celebrate our 25th anniversary. We've had a wonderful relaxing time. What a great condo and location to the beach! Beautiful sunsets and sunrises! It is so quiet and the people have been so kind....We picked a great week to come. It's been mid to upper 80's. There is so much to do here. We really enjoyed the airboat tour in Everglades City (Totch's Island Tours) and the Dolphin Explorer tour. We did a lot of walking on Tiger Tail Beach! While sitting at our beach access we saw several dolphins swimming back and forth. What a sight! There are several good eating places. We would suggest Snook Inn, Nacho Mama's, Joey's Pizzaria, Cocomo's Grill, Havana Café (in Chokoloskee Island – great grouper!) & Sweet Annie's for ice cream. We thank you for the note cards... Thank you Bob for your fast responses to our calls! We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year for 2014! We want to plan to come back and we will recommend to our friends and family. Reality will hit us when we go back to snow and 20 degrees! Thank you for a lovely time!

We loved Marco Island, and we loved the condo. Close to everything, very clean. Owner left us a bottle of wine, some Marco Island note cards, and a lovely welcoming letter. Condo was so cute, we felt like it was our own little condo. Very nice. Will be going back hopefully very soon.

What an amazing find!
Review submitted: April 4, 2010 Date of arrival: May 20, 2009
What an amazing find! We attended a wedding at the Marriott and were within walking distance which was perfect. The beach access across the street was unbelievable. It was so nice to have an umbrella and beach chairs waiting for us and the PackNPlay and highchair were life-savers with a 4 month old! We feel so lucky to have stumbled across your condo for our last minute plans.

The condo is so cute
Review submitted: January 8, 2010 Date of arrival: December 21, 2009
Thank you so much for all your kindness to us during our recent stay over Christmas. We stayed Dec 21-28, 2009. The condo is so cute and nicely decorated. It was so convenient to the beach and the area was very quiet and peaceful. We appreciate you going above and beyond in everything you have done for us. Thank you so much for the beautiful cards and the bottle of wine as well. The mini Christmas tree in the condo was such a nice touch. We haven't stopped sharing with friends and family the wonderful experience we have enjoyed. We will be back! Thanks again. Terry and Stephen

Have you made this pattern?
Share with the Craftsy community.
This pattern is one, that I designed, for those of you who are art yarn lovers, or spinners, who wonder, just what you can do with a small amount of it!
This sweet hat features gentle ribbing, for fit, and a lovely flower clip.
New yarn list!
The Amelia pattern takes all of the guesswork out of working with your super bulky, art yarn!
Art yarn spinners will give you the Wraps per inch, for their yarns, but if you are in doubt, or have some yarn, you aren't sure about, you can simply knit up a swatch, and match the gauge.
This pattern also comes with a long list of appropriate yarns! I have done the shopping, so that you don't have to! Simply choose one of my handspun yarns, listed, and knit the pattern. Have fun!
This hat is for use under direct adult supervision.
Thank you so much, to Leslie Lane, in Benbrook, TX, for the wonderful photos!!
You can visit her, at:
www.facebook.com/LanePortraits or www.laneportraits.com
Gauge: 7 stitches/almost 11 rows =4", in stockinette stitch, on size 15 needles (If using 5 WPI yarn, gauge will be 8 stitches =4".)
I have always been inspired, by hand knit items, but it seemed beyond reach, for me...until I took some knitting classes!
From there, it became my relaxation, and creative outlet!
My passion is designing, and I love to spin my own yarns, as well!
I love to see the finished product, on the baby models....

During Super Bowl Sunday, the folks at Doritos had an unusual but incredible marketing strategy. In the back of the Denver Broncos endzone at MetLife Stadium, there was a bright orange Dorito chip shaped figure in the crowd and it was not there by accident.
Doritos suited up 50 lucky fans in bright orange jackets for the big game, so that they could form a giant Dorito-shaped logo in the back of the endzone for the world to see.
There is a good chance that you noticed the bright orange figures in the crowd, but perhaps you thought they were just some very loyal Denver Broncos fans. Now, you know exactly why they were there.
You can watch the video below that shows how Doritos chose the fifty people to suit up for the big game and create the largest human Doritos chip ever:

Published on December 29, 2007
Bob Kimmins
Although the Babylonians had no written calendar, March 23 sees the first new moon after the vernal equinox, or first day of spring, which was a logical time to ring in the New Year.
Later, Roman dating synchronised with the sun not the moon, and alignment was achieved when the Senate declared January 1 New Year's Day in 153 BC. After further adjustments, Julius Caesar re-established the first day of January on the Julian Calendar 107 years later.
But that wasn't the end of the story. After the early Catholic Church had condemned New Year celebrations as pagan, Christianity embraced them to commemorate the birth of Christ on December 25, and then changed them back to March 25 for Annunciation Day.
Enter Pope Gregory XIII, who sorted things out in the 16th century by revising the Julian to the Gregorian Calendar and returning New Year's Day to January 1.
While most of the modern world accepts January 1 as a New Year's Day, Chinese New Year is still taken seriously. The Chinese calendar year comprises both the Gregorian and lunar-solar systems - broken down into 12 months - each consisting of 39 and a half days.
Chinese New Year commences at the first full moon after the sun enters Aquarius - between January 19 and February 21.
And not forgetting Songkran - the Thai New Year - celebrated from April 13 to 15. Songkran means "move" or "change place" in Thai, as the sun changes position in the zodiac.
Fun and frolics
While uncertainty remains over when New Year's Day should actually occur, everyone agrees that whenever it is, it's party time.
In accordance with the Gregorian Calendar, Hogmanay is practised on the stroke of New Year, when the Scottish carry coal, salt, shortbread, black buns and whisky into neighbouring households for luck; before hands join and voices chorus to Robbie Byrnes poem, "Auld Lang Syne", which means "good old days".
Chinese New Year spans 15 days that involve feasts, family visits and paying respect to elders and ancestors. People wear red and hand out red envelopes containing money to their children. There are lion dances, fireworks and firecrackers, and a lantern festival on the final day.
And Thailand's Songkran consists of temple ceremonies, special food preparations, parades and beauty pageants and chucking buckets of water at each other.
In the days when openly showing affection was taboo in Thai society, my Thai wife and daughter experienced their first Western New Year. They were favourably impressed with the way they were greeted, with a warm and sincere "Happy New Year".
As the evening wore on, they enjoyed the food, whoopee cushions, poppers, whistles, crackers and funny hats, but on the stroke of midnight, when the rather unruly kissing and hugging began, the two girls ran screaming into the toilet and wouldn't come out until everyone had gone.
Promises, promises
Although the ancient Babylonians were thought to make New Year promises, such as handing back borrowed farming equipment, it is commonly believed that resolutions started about 2,000 years ago with Janus -a mythical king of early Rome.
As a symbol of the Roman Calendar, Janus's two faces could reflect on the past and look to the future at the same time, and so the Roman's did likewise at New Year. It was a time to analyse one's bad points and make improvements in the coming 12 months.
In those days, popular Roman resolutions were forgiveness and the intention to exchange gifts, but today many people hope to lose weight, stop certain habits, clear debts, earn more money, become charitable, exercise regularly and resolve conflicts.
However, a lot of resolutions are too ambitious or impossible to achieve and often break down before January is out. Serious resolutions should be planned step by step, like coming off drugs, with no over expectations.
When I decided to stop buying beer on my way home from work every day, the first step was merely the firm intention. Then, I managed to pass the shop or even reach home before going back to buy a bottle. Finally, I succeeded in breaking the habit and controlling the beer instead of the beer controlling me.
With this New Year upon us, I am now desperately planning on how to dispel my murderous thoughts when the neighbours opposite hold karaoke parties in their front garden.
If successful, I'm certain I'll feel a better and stress-released person, but failure will herald the need for analysis.
So, if you're attempting a New Year resolution, I wish you luck - and besides - all the very best for 2008.

Uroug is fritter composed of meat and vegetables mixed with dough then fried as patties. Thus the name Kabab Tawa or meat patties cooked in a frying pan. Recipes for Uroug vary from family to family. Some make it with ground lamb others make it with finely minced beef. They are traditionally prepared for supper, or during Suhur ( pre-dawn breakfast during the Ramadan fasting). Left overs can also be torn up and mixed with egg for breakfast.
1.0 servings
1 pound lean ground meat or finely minced meat (beef or lamb)
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup fresh parsley chopped or dried
2 eggs beaten
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon coriander
1 teaspoon baharat
1/2 teaspoon chili powder, or more to taste
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 cup of vegetable, canola or grape seed oil for frying
In a large bowl, mix meat, onion, tomato, parsley, egg, spices and tomato paste. Add flour, baking powder, and water then mix well to combine.
Knead light with your fingers. The final dough is little on the sofe side. Add a little more flour if the dough is too runny. It should be similar to a thick pancake batter.
Heat oil in a medium pan. Carefully drop a couple of tablespoons (2 tablespoons should be enough to form a patty) into the hot oil. Cook for about 2 minutes or until golden brown, flip and cook the other side another minute.
Remove and drain fried uroug on wire rack lined with paper towel.

Comments about Natural Science Digestive Supplement 60 ct:
The first time I got this for my Clover, she was having some minor "input/output" issues. Before taking her to her vet, I decided to try Digestive Support. Within 3 days I had a very happy (and regular) bunny again! It does not have a laxative effect, it just keeps things moving. This is a permanent part of Clover's daily diet now. Also, she loves these tablets and thinks they are treats!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

First Review on RM. I had to post one because this tool finally did the trick for my front brake. I like my brake to be extremely touchy, and for the longest time I couldn't get the air out of my line. Bought this Tusk part because it was inexpensive, and it worked great. Within 10 minutes of bleeding my brake, I got just the response I wanted. I couldn't believe all the air that come out.Read All Reviews

Sandy Hook, Conn. incident restarts debate on gun laws
A mere 24 hours after a heavily armed man gunned down 20 children and six adults at the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., lines had begun to be drawn between those who advocate gun "control" and those in favor of gun "rights."
All agreed that what happened in Newtown Friday was unthinkable. There was no consensus, however, when the discussion turned to preventing future school shootings.
Scott Wilson, president of the Groton-based Connecticut Citizens Defense League, suggested that lawfully arming school faculty and staff might help.
"I really think it's time people start thinking out of the box with these things and really consider options to protect our children," he said in a phone interview Saturday.
Wilson, a 48-year-old New London native who works in customer service in the trucking industry, only recently has started telling people that he was the victim of a shooting accident at age 14, when a relative mishandled a friend's .22-caliber pistol.
"He was not watching where it was pointed, and he put his finger on the trigger," Wilson said.
The bullet entered Wilson's shoulder, went into his neck, nicked an artery and lodged against his spine, partially paralyzing his right arm for a period of time, he said.
"In spite of that, after a number of years, I decided that between crime and coming to believe in our rights as citizens, gun ownership was an important thing," Wilson said.
On Friday, less than three hours after the shooting, Wilson sent out a press release on behalf of his pro-gun rights group to express its "heartfelt sympathies to the victims, families and the entire community of Newtown," but also to stand firm on the right to own guns.
"This was an act of deranged behavior from a mentally ill individual, not of decent and law abiding people that own guns and respect life," he wrote in the press release.
The unwillingness of gun rights advocates to budge on firearms issues frustrates those who want to talk about banning assault-type rifles and large-capacity ammunition magazines that enable a shooter to fire off multiple rounds without reloading. Every proposal to ban so-called LCAMs, the most recent in 2011, has failed to make it out of committee in the Connecticut General Assembly.
"The problem is not guns, they tell me, even though every one of these mass murders involved guns with a high-capacity magazine," Ron Pinciaro, executive director of Connecticut Against Gun Violence, said.
But like those who show up in large numbers at public hearings in Hartford to oppose revisions to what already are considered among the strictest gun laws in the country, Pinciaro conceded that no single gun law would prevent mass shootings.
"This is a cultural problem, and it's the incredible lethality and fire power of these weapons that contribute to it," he said. "It's the proliferation of weapons, the fact that we have 300 million guns in the United States, far more than any other country, and the gun manufacturers keep aggressively marketing them."
State Rep. Diana Urban, D-North Stonington, who said she consistently gets an "F" rating from the National Rifle Association, and state Sen. Andrew Maynard, D-18th District, who gets "A's" from the gun rights group, agreed the conversation about guns must take place.
Urban said she is a proponent of the Second Amendment and that her low rating from the NRA is probably a result of her opposition to hunting. She was frustrated during the last session when a bill she proposed to ban fake guns within 250 feet of schools was killed.
She proposed the ban after a scare involving a 15-year-old student who pointed an airsoft gun at another teen's head in Stonington. The student didn't immediately comply with police when ordered to drop the weapon.
"I guess what I'm saying is that it's unfortunate that a bill like the simulated gun bill gets killed rather than being able to have a conversation," Urban said. "The opposition rears its head and says, 'No, we will not have this conversation.'"
Urban wants the discussion to include easier access to treatment and insurance coverage for those who have mental health problems.
"I know many constituents who have children who need placement (in a facility)," Urban said. "Until that child does harm to someone or themselves, we can't get them a bed. We need to address that."
Maybe the conversation should even include a rating system for video games, she said.
Maynard, who said he generally has opposed additional gun laws, may be more open to changes in the wake of the Sandy Hook School shooting.
"It's funny that the closer these things strike to home, it focuses your thoughts," he said.
For example, when it comes to the large capacity magazine discussion, "It's very hard for me to continue to justify protecting the rights of sportsmen at the cost of this kind of carnage," Maynard said.
But like the others, Maynard said, changes to gun laws may not have prevented the Newtown shooting. News reports indicated that Adam Lanza had used guns that were legally purchased by and registered to his mother. They also indicate he had a personality disorder and was a loner.
Maynard said conversation has to include the mental health system and identifying people who are showing signs of stress or isolation.

African American Quilts
19th- and 20th-century quilts made by African Americans, with a particular style: colorful, random, and roughly made, along the lines of the famous Gee's Bend, Alabama quilts. The jazz of the quilt world.

Wow, I just came on here to post about this same problem. This seemed to happen when I got a new computer and began installing a new printer. Not sure if it was the computer or the printer, or something else entirely.
I tried rebooting the router and the phone, but no dice. My only solution was to go into Wifi Settings > Advanced > Pick 'Static IP' > enter all the IP/MAC Address info. You get into advanced by pressing the menu (lower left button) button on the Wifi Settings page.
If you're using Windows you can get all your IP info by launching the command prompt and typing "ipconfig" (no quotation marks). Here's how to do that in case you have never used the command prompt:
Go to start menu > In the Start Menu 'Search Bar', type 'cmd' (no quotations) > Press enter > the black CMP prompt should pop up > type "ipconfig" (again, no quotations) and all the info you need will be there.
BTW, the "Netmask" on the Galaxy menu is the same as the Subnet mask listed in the command prompt.
I'd like to know of any other solutions, or why this happens.

Embracing Neoliberalism
Listening to the Embrace album recently, I started wondering where the line is between inspirational (if at times rather didactic) moral truths and the agenda of individualistic personal responsibility that characterises most attempts to deflect from social and structural issues today. For example, when Ian MacKaye sings, in 'No More Pain'
"Your emotions are nothing but politics, so get control"it's a powerful (if blunt) statement of the personal-is-political, urging people to realize they are not entirely at the mercy of social and cultural forces without at least some agency in how they can respond to them. Even if that is initially only through defiance, it offers hope of change. But what if such agency is illusory - what if the corollary is
"Your behaviours are nothing but economics"and (too complex to fit in a lyric) control is something you already have, and must have, at least to the extent which the economic system allows.
I've just got to the part towards the end of The Birth of Biopolitics where Foucault asks "is not economics the analysis of forms of rational conduct and does not all rational conduct, whatever it may be, fall under something like economic analysis?". We see this in popular terms today with things like Freakonomics, and more generally in the expansion of neoliberal ideas to the operation of previously 'social' and non-economic areas of life.
This "colossal definition" is difficult to argue against except with a firm conviction in ideological alternatives or an awareness of the scientific weakness of economics or behavioural psychology; but it seems to me that the latter objection, while convincing, is contingent and provisional on inferior knowledge. Already advertising works by deliberately exploiting the irrationality of human behaviour; or in other, perhaps more Foucauldian terms, it has rationalised the irrational so as to better fit it into the economic schema.
What this all has to do with Embrace I'm not really sure. I guess I'm just wondering if the individual they're addressing, trying to break away from the tide of nihilism and cruelty caused by the breakdown of the post-war accommodated capitalist society, isn't perhaps more similar to the constructed individual under neoliberalism which we rail against today, post-crisis. I think the frank addressing of mental and emotional health is really important, but the tricky thing is identifying the amount of agency the individual really has in their social and economic context.

I have experienced Fleming's Violetta live a couple of times, and found it unsatisfying. Then came this second DVD version of her Traviata (this time from Covent Garden, after the bland Los Angeles version), and I wondered why the world needed another of her Violetta performances in a production already released with the superb Gheorghiu.
I was wrong.
This is one of the most beautiful performances I have witnessed by the people's diva. I believe the reason for this lies in the conducting. Pappano drives the tempi to the limit of Fleming's capabilities, driving her to the edge. She doesn't scoop, coo or whine her way through the role, but is forced to sing it full throttle in order to keep up with the orchestra. The effect is splendid. She still is not a great actress, but the sounds she produces are worth every second of this production. Only when she is left to her own devices, especially in "e strano, e strano" does she resort to her old tricks and habits, but once the orchestra comes in for "ah, forse lui", her breath support kicks in beautifully again.
Calleja shines here as Alfredo. His fast vibrato and plangeant sound are suited quite wonderfully to the demands of the role. He sounds youthful, eager, and energetic. He plays the teenager quite well. This is an especially good contrast to the stiff Germont of Hampson. His singing rings, but his overly pompous interpretation of Germont seems overdone. Only in the very end of Act II, scene 1 does he really seem honest, in reaction to Calleja's tempestuous behavior.
The production still looks lovely, and the costumes made for Fleming show her at her best. A slightly weak cast of conprimarios, especially a pallid Gastone, rounds out the production.

3. Leave trolling at the door as well. If you must troll, please come up with something more clever-er than "Donkeys" Also applies to us as well, folks. Lets leave the trash talking of other teams for other threads. Gotta set the example!
4. Dont turn this place into a mess of a thread over politics, race, war religion, etc.
5. Respect each other.
Don't follow these rules, and my Imperial Homies Bronco Mike and Tim Lynch will handle ya'. Here's a pic:

What are bright spots on an MRI?
This question is primarily out of curiosity's sake, not really diagnostic. A few months ago I took part in an fMRI study (without contrast) for a psychology course for an optional extra credit (so I did it for fun rather than for diagnostic purposes). Since then, they've sent me images of my brain, which have been really neat to look at.
Anyway, I noticed that I have a bright spot (it shows up as stark white) on what appears to be my lateral and posterior pituitary gland. It literally looks like a band has encompassed what otherwise appears to be a normal pituitary. Can this be a normal variation or is this common of some sort of a pituitary lesion? Or am I completely off and something like this suggest the location of my pituitary stalk and/or optic chiasm? If it's anything to be remotely concerned about, I will discuss this with my doctor. I just wanted to get some insight before I ended up jumping the gun a little too quickly.
Thanks for your help!

I had a couple of pit tumors - and I can tell you that they look for dark, not light. I know, I kept looking at the light parts, but they look for hypo-intense- that is, less intense.
If you look at my pics, I have a pit pic up there with some bright on it - that is my residual pit lighting up - I had pit surgery so my anatomy is a bit different.

Thanks for the info! I see a couple of *tiny* hypointense spots, but then again, the images I have are also tiny, so it could just be the quality of the scan images that I got.
I was also curious because I've recently gained about 30 lbs in 3 months without any changes to my normal diet or exercise levels (other than really *bad* and constant fatigue but that preceded any weight gain by almost a year), and was thinking maybe something hormonal might be going on. Time to talk to my doc either way =)

Yes - blood tests are the best way to figure out the hormonal stuff anyway.
White spots can be so many things... I went to a seminar and a doc talked us through reading films. It was pretty neat. If you have a CD, sometimes the software lets you zoom in - that helps.

In a trench-gated MIS semiconductor device, a slug of undoped polysilicon is deposited at the bottom of the trench to protect the gate oxide in this area against the high electric fields that can occur in this area. The slug is formed over a thick oxide layer at the bottom of the trench. A process of fabricating the MOSFET includes the steps of growing a thick oxide layer on the sidewalls and bottom of the trench, depositing a polysilicon layer which remains undoped, etching the polysilicon layer to form the plug, etching the exposed portion of the thick oxide layer, growing a gate oxide layer and an oxide layer over the plug, and depositing and doping a polysilicon layer which serves as the gate electrode. In an alternative embodiment, the oxide layer overlying the plug is etched before the gate polysilicon is deposited such that the dopant introduced into the gate polysilicon migrates into the polysilicon plug. In this embodiment, the polysilicon plug is in electrical contact with the gate polysilicon layer and is separated from the drain by the thick oxide layer.
1. A method of fabricating an MIS device comprising:
forming a trench in a semiconductor chip comprising an N-epi layer atop an N+ substrate, the trench having a sidewall and a bottom, wherein the trench is formed in the N-epi layer and does not extend to the N+ substrate;
growing a first oxide layer on the sidewall and bottom of the trench;
depositing undoped polysilicon in the trench;
etching a portion of the undoped polysilicon to expose a portion of the first oxide layer while leaving a plug of undoped polysilicon at the bottom of the trench;
etching the exposed portion of the first oxide layer to expose a portion of a sidewall of the trench;
growing a gate oxide layer on the exposed portion of the sidewall;
growing a second oxide layer on the undoped polysilicon plug;
depositing a polysilicon layer in the trench that overflows onto a top surface of the N-epi layer, the polysilicon layer for forming a gate and is adjacent to the gate oxide and the second oxide layer; and
etching back the polysilicon layer until its top surface is approximately level with the top surface of the N-epi layer.

This application claims priority from co-pending U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09/591,179, filed on Jun. 8, 2000, entitled �TRENCH-GATED MIS DEVICE HAVING THICK POLYSILICON INSULATION LAYER AT TRENCH BOTTOM AND METHOD OF FABRICATING THE SAME,� by Giles et al., and assigned to the assignee of the present application, which is herein incorporated by reference.
This invention relates to metal-insulator-silicon (MIS) devices and in particular a trench-gated MIS device having polysilicon as the gate material.
There is a class of metal-insulator-silicon (MIS) devices in which the gate is formed in a trench that extends downward from the surface of the silicon or other semiconductor material. The gate is typically formed of polycrystalline silicon (polysilicon) and is insulated from the silicon by a layer of oxide that lines the sidewalls and bottom of the trench. The current flow in such devices is primarily vertical and as a result the cells can be more densely packed. All else being equal, this increases the current carrying capability and reduces the on-resistance of the device. Devices that fit into the general category of MIS devices include metal-oxide-silicon field-effect transistors (MOSFETs), insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) and MOS-gated thyristors.
A cross-sectional view of a typical N-channel trench-gated MOSFET is shown in
Methods of manufacturing trench-gated devices are well known. The top surface of the silicon is masked and a dry/plasma etch is used to cut the trench. A sacrificial oxide layer is thermally grown on the walls of the trench, and removed, to eliminate crystal damage caused by the dry etch. Then a thin gate oxide layer is thermally grown. Finally, doped polysilicon is used to completely fill the trench and form the gate electrode.
One problem that occurs with trench-gated devices derives from the fact that the gate oxide layer at the bottom of the trench is subjected to the drain operating voltage (in the region designated 18 in
In accordance with this invention, an MIS device comprises a semiconductor chip having a trench extending from a surface of the semiconductor chip; a source region of a first conductivity type adjacent a sidewall of the trench and the surface of the chip; a body region of a second conductivity type opposite to the first conductivity type adjacent the source region and the sidewall of the trench; and a drain region of the first conductivity type adjacent the body region and the sidewall of the trench, wherein the trench is lined with a first layer of gate oxide along a portion of the sidewall that abuts the body region and wherein the trench is lined with a second layer which comprises a plug of undoped polysilicon at the bottom of the trench, the second layer being thicker than the first layer.
In one embodiment the second layer comprises a second oxide layer.
The invention also includes a method of fabricating an MIS device comprising forming a trench in a semiconductor chip; growing a first oxide layer on the sidewall and bottom of the trench; depositing undoped polysilicon in the trench; etching a portion of the undoped polysilicon to expose a portion of the first oxide layer while leaving a plug of undoped polysilicon at the bottom of the trench; etching an exposed portion of the first oxide layer to expose a portion of the sidewall of the trench; growing a gate oxide layer on the exposed portion of the sidewall; and forming a gate of doped polysilicon above the plug of undoped polysilicon and adjacent the gate oxide layer.
The method may also include growing a second oxide layer on the undoped polysilicon plug and depositing a polysilicon layer over the second oxide layer such that the second oxide layer separates the gate and the undoped polysilicon plug.
According to another aspect, the method comprises etching the second oxide layer before depositing the polysilicon layer such that the polysilicon layer is in contact with the undoped polysilicon plug. In this case, the contact between the polysilicon layer and the undoped polysilicon plug causes dopant to enter the undoped polysilicon plug.
The invention will be best understood by referring to the drawings, in which similar elements are given the same reference numeral and in which:
A second embodiment is shown in
As shown in
As shown in
Thick oxide layer 410 is etched from the sidewalls of trench, yielding the structure shown in
The structure is heated to 1050� C. for 35 minutes to form a gate oxide layer 416 on the sidewalls of trench 408. Gate oxide layer 416 may be, for example, 500 Å thick. A thin oxide layer 418 also forms on the top surface of polysilicon plug 414, as shown in
A layer 420 of polysilicon is deposited in trench 408 and overflows onto the top surface of N-epi layer 402, as shown in
After doping, polysilicon layer 420 is etched back until the top surface of layer 420 is approximately level with the top surface of N-epi layer 402, as shown in
Using known implantation and diffusion processes, a P-body region 422 and an N+ source region 424 are formed in N-epi layer 420. The PN junction between P-body region 422 and the remaining N−portion of epi layer 402 is located at a level above the interface between thick oxide layer 410 and gate oxide layer 416, as shown in
A layer 426 of borophosphosilicate glass (BPSG) is deposited on the surfaces of N-epi layer 402 and doped polysilicon 420, as shown in
An alternative process is illustrated in
While specific embodiments of this invention have been described herein, these embodiments are to be treated as illustrative and not limiting. For example, the structures and methods of this invention can be used with any type of MIS device where it is desirable to form an insulating layer between a trench gate and a region outside the trench. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that numerous alternative embodiments are possible in accordance with the broad principles of this invention.

Pours clear red-golden with just a slight white head that doesn't hang around long.
Aroma is dominated by a metallic, oxidized funk. Sweet, with just a hint of light fruit and strong fusel alcohol.
Taste is bready pale malt. Once again, hints of light fruit.Finishes with a slight nutty quality and a metallic sting.
Mouthfeel is light. Thin.
Overall; forgettable beer flavor with a relatively unpleasant aroma.

Poured a slightly hazy copper color with a light white ring of head.
Has a funky musty and bready smell.
The flavor is surprisingly boring, just a light bit of bready malt and a touch of bitter juniper, not much going on here.
Mouthfeel is fairly thin and a bit flat.
Pretty bland and poor overall.

From 22oz bomber to Bruges hybrid glass on 11/11/11
*From notes
A: It looks like unfiltered peach juice. It really is a lovely beer. A forceful pour yields a one finger head that fade fast. Zero lacing.
S: Pear skins, star fruit. Huh, to be honest it's kind of hard to get much out of the nose at all, actually.
T: The flavor is...nil. WTF - I didn't know I was gonna be taking a tour of Bland City. Really, I've never had a beer like it before. It's just a buttery, bland mess.
M: Middle of the road here.
O: Lips of Faith Sahti is terribly forgettable. Don't go out of your way for this. In fact, I'm giving this a hearty thumbs down.

Poured into my New Belgium goblet with a deep copper hue and a light 1in lacing. The aroma lighter than expected but had metallic copper bite and just a hint of spice. The taste follows the nose and is lighter than expected. There is some sweetness in the beginning that is followed by a little rye and some bitterness. I can't really figure this one out. It is very drinkable and does have the nice, faintly dry finish from the rye and hops. But to me it has the feel of a lager which is odd but maybe it is this bottle. It has been in my fridge for who knows how long. I for sure remembering this different when I sampled at the brewery. I have another one put away, will try again soon.

Received a 1 PINT, 6 FL. OZ. bottle in a trade w/ CurtisMcArthur back in August and the estimated price is around $15. Poured from the Sahti Tree covered bottle into my 12oz Surly Darkness Tulip Glass. Has a Bottled on Date of 09/09/10 on the bottom of line of the bottle.
Story Behind this Brew: In the hunt for enjoying every one of the Lips of Faith Series beers, this one was attractive because I've never had a Sahti brew! This is my first Sahti ale now and very interested in reviewing it. Thanks Curtis!
Aroma- Tons of malt and spiciness in the starting of the nose. Has a good floral hop aroma and nice yeastiness. Very complexed aroma!
Appearance- Pours a .5 finger head that dies very quickly. Has an amber/dark orange colored body with tons of haze. Leaves thick, spider-web like lacing behind.
Flavor- Has a great combination of fruits, spices, and malt. Very light hops are in the taste but can tell they are citrus covered. A good grapefruit taste finishes off this brew. Bitterness is at a medium level and is finished with spices. Nice!
Mouthfeel- Medium Bodied, Medium Carbonation, Effervescent, and has a prickly, acidic finish. Leaves good spices behind on the palate.
Overall Impression- While never having this style before and not able to compare it to any other brews, I definitely wish this one was going to be brewed again! I wouldn't mind enjoying another Sahti when available as well. I haven't seen this style in any liquor store in St. Louis. Nice amount of spice and fruit flavors all the way through.

2.85/5 rDev -16.4%
Pours a yellow-tinged apricot. Retention and lace unknown as this was a tasting sample.
With this being such an obscure style I was expecting something pretty crazy and out-of-the-box, even if NB didn't stick to the true method of making a Sahti. But instead, what they delivered tastes more like a Fat Tire with a hefty dose of rye.
The nose basically melds the Fat Tire toastiness with that buttery, fruity and spicy rye character. The juniper is no where to be found, while the hops add a bit of citrus that still barely manages to push its way through the hearty rye malt. Some toasted walnut from the malt and some estery apricot.
The medium-bodied palate once again takes your Fat Tire character but subs in the drier and chewier rye maltiness. The bitterness is mild while the juniper finally makes an appearance at the very end, imparting a juniper tea-like tone to the buttery, toasty apricot character.
Is it good for the style? Dunno, it's my first Sahti. But I seriously doubt that Sahti is meant to taste like Fat Tire, so I'm going to say that this isn't very good for a style. Nor is it really that great of a beer. If I want Fat Tire, I'll drink Fat Tire. And I don't often really want it to begin with.

802nd Review on BA
Bottle to NB Globe
No date.
App- A very deep gold with a 1-1/2 finger head. A few whispy lines of lace. Smaller rings of bubble funnel from the outside rim inward. A little bit of a pond layer on top of the beer.
Smell- This was far less aromatic than I anticipated. It was a little damp, seemed a little old, a little dense wood-like and maybe a hint of stale berries. At the very end a slight tinge of sugar.
Taste- My buddy said he found this offensive. I don't find it offensive so much as its just lacking in HUGE flavors we have come to expect from a beer. It was a little muted, a little malty and retained some of the berry and wood notes from the smell. Could've been a little less damp feeling and a little more crisp.
Mouth- Medium bodied and a slightly medium/lower carbonation level to me. A bit thick in the drink and was a dense berry and wood flavor.
Drink- As stated above in my taste section, it was a little lacking in huge flavors but not that's its a bad beer. It's not. Its supposed to have subtle flavors and little nuances from the ingredients. I would like to try the DFH to compare them. I probably wont come back to this one though. A little too un-crisp for me for the flavors.

3.25/5 rDev -4.7%
A: Pours a clear dark gold with a thinner, but tight off-white head. Looks good.
S: Smells very spicy and floral, but not super pungent.
T: The initial taste is lighter than the body with an almost tea like feel that is throughout the beer. Definitely leans towards the sweeter side. It isn't bad, but it lacks a certain beeryness and the sweetness hurts it a bit.
M: Thicker than I expected, but it does slowly become more drinkable. The carbonation is a little low and it sits on the palate too much.
O: I honestly would buy this again if I found it for a cheap price and was feeling some alcoholic, slightly-sweetened tea, otherwise I do not think I will be pick this up again.

3.5/5 rDev +2.6%
A- Pours an orangish-pink with a quart-inch white head. Cool step lacing and pretty good head retention.
S- Subdued nose. maybe some rye.
T- More mellow that other sahtis I've had in the past. Slight juniper but you'd have to do some searching to find it. More rye notes.
M- Very nicely carbonated. Medium mouthfeel.
D/O- If you're going to do a style that most aren't familiar with, then you might as well go "balls" out and i feel New Belgium left something on the table here. Also, points lost for using hops. Not a bad beer per se, but there are better representations of the style out there.

Poured from a bomber into a Duvel tulip
A- pours a dark, clear shade of amber with a solid offwhite head that sticks around for awhile and leaves some excellent lacing. Looks gorgeous.
S- smells very spicy. A little grassy. Almost like a saison
T- getting a lot of tea flavors from the juniper. The finish is pretty sweet. The flavor is overall very mild and laid back...feels like drinking a cold tea
M- the feel of this one....it's really thick. But not syrupy. It's more thick like a stout than thick like a DIPA...and I really enjoy that
O- this is a fantastic beer in a style that doesn't really get much love. I'd really like to see more breweries give it a whirl
