Product description
Winner of the Estoril Global Issues Distinguished Book Prize 2013 Niall Ferguson's Civilization: The Six Killer Apps of Western Power is a vital, brilliant look at the winning tools of power. In 1412, Europe was a miserable backwater ravaged by plague, bad sanitation and incessant war, while the Orient was home to dazzling civilizations. So how did the West come to dominate the Rest? In this vital, brilliant book, selected as a Daily Telegraph Book of the Year, Niall Ferguson reveals the 'killer applications' that did it: competition - How Europe's small, piratical states built modern capitalism; science - How innovation gave the West the military edge; property rights - How the laws of private property built the United States; medicine - How colonialism transformed the world's health; the consumer society - How shopping made the industrial revolution; and the work ethic - How Western religious ideas brought it all together. But has the West now lost its monopoly on these six things? Or is this the end of Western ascendancy? "A dazzling history of Western ideas ...epic". (Economist). "Vivid and fascinating". (Daily Telegraph). "Superb ...brings history alive ...dazzling". (Independent). "This is sharp. It feels urgent. Ferguson ...twists his knife with great literary brio". (Andrew Marr, Financial Times). Niall Ferguson is one of Britain's most renowned historians. He is Laurence A. Tisch Professor of History at Harvard University, a Senior Research Fellow of Jesus College, Oxford and a Senior Fellow of the Hoover Institution, Stanford University. He is the bestselling author of Paper and Iron, The House of Rothschild, The Pity of War, The Cash Nexus, Empire, Colossus, The War of the World and The Ascent of Money.

North End Treats
- trufflehound Mar 25, 2008 05:59 PM
Just off the pike in Framingham on 30 looked open. Anyone know the scoop? Logo has fire.Brick oven?
North end treats is awesome!
Yes just opened and they will have delivery starting April 15th. I have only had the gelato and a bite of the lobster tail cream pastry a friend at work gave me but the pastries are delicious!
It was recomended to me by a friend who raved about the sauce they use for thier pizza. They have a great menu that is extensive, salads, pastries, pizza, sandwiches, ice cream, tea, coffee,panninis and wraps, and other great items. The website www.northendtreats.com It is not up and running yet last I heard. They do not have seating as of yet when I went last week. (I am not sure they will as it is a small place).
Anyway check it out! It is well worth it!
yes, they are open.. they did a soft opening on Tuesday, without advertising..they just opened the doors to see what kind of foot traffic they would receive..its the cousin of my wife's place..we were in there a couple of weeks ago for a sampling of the food and everything is amazing.. spread the word..this place will definitely satisfy.. the menu is extensive, from pizza, to panini sanwiches, to pastries and flavored coffees.. if i could make a recommendation.. the steak tips are unbelievable..you can get them on a plate with rice or, even better, try the steak tip pizza
I went in during lunch today, they had lots of staff- it seemed like owners and management were also helping out to get everyone's order in. Its clean, store with a great selection of drinks, baked goodies, and the panini was delicious. The Bova bread that made all the difference!
stopped in for a quick slice of pizza and a lobster tail the other day. pizza was great! they do have an oven out front. lobster tail shell was nice and crisp even though they were pre-filled. cream was a bit disappointing though: too sweet and texture was pudding-like.
I just had a lobster tail and cannoli from North End Treats. I agree that the lobster tail was disappointing. The pastry was nice and crispy, but the filling seemed to consist only of too-sweet whipped cream. There was none of the pudding texture the previous poster referred to, so maybe they're working on it. The cannoli was better, but not as good as Mike's. The filling had the opposite problem: could have used more sweetness or more flavor of some kind, and the shell wasn't stale, but was not as crisp as it could have been. I look forward to trying the brick oven pizza, though.
I got pizza to take out about 2 weeks ago and it was delicious. The sauce was amazing. As for the cookies I got that was another story. Some tasted stale although the almond ones were good. They also did not have any decaf drinks which was disappointing.
I will be back for the pizza and hopefully now that they are getting busier the cookies may be fresher.
And as for the service that was disappointing also. There was one person ahead of me being waited on and 4 girls working along with the 2 guys cooking pizza and not one of the girls said a word. They were refilling and stocking and talking with the cooks as I waited at least 3 minutes for the customer in front of me to finish up. And then when the customer finishes one of the girls decides that she can help the girl with what I needed.
So just polish up on the service and they will be good to go and I will be happy.
I work right around the corner form here and have not tried it, but plan too! A friend of mine jsut told me that the same people run it as Bovas bakery in the North End ... I now know what I'm having for lunch tomorrow!! I'll report back how it is.
Friends bought 2 different pizzas for dinner. The first was a mixed cheese. The highlight for everyone was the delicious ricotta that made the pizza. The other was vegetable. The peppers were soft and vinegary, while the amazing eggplant, though fried, tasted grilled! The sauce was tasty and the dough has just the right amount of salt. While this definitely isn't as good as the North End Reginas, but for the Framingham/Natick area, the pizza was quite good. The baked goods we have bought have been fine...had better elsewhere.
re: foodymom
Thanks for the pizza particulars. Eggplant and ricotta are my two favorite pizza toppings. Was the eggplant breaded or battered and then fried?
re: pollystyrene
Great question and, honestly, I don't remember. I think it was breaded and fried.
re: foodymom
I had one tonight (pizza with ricotta and eggplant), and I think the eggplant was very lightly breaded and fried, as you said. I actually thought the pizza could have used a bit of salt somewhere, so I added some shredded parm cheese that I had at home. Other than that, it was very good. This is a different type of pizza than Regina's altogether, with thick, doughy crust, tomato chunks and big dollops of ricotta; however, given a choice between the two, I'd opt for Regina's. I really liked the puffy, chewy dough, though.
The cannoli I had was a bit better than the last one I had there. The shell was crisp again, and the filling seemed more flavorful. I also had a "whoopie pie," which was really filled with simple--albeit good--whipped cream. The cake part was good, though, giving me an excuse to try their cupcakes next time.
Worst Pizza experience I have ever had. I went in today, Friday June 20th and ordered 2 pizza's. I waited and waited while others that ordered after me received their pizza and were on their way...I asked several times...finnally I was told they "broke my pizza" how do you break a pizza? Ok fine I continued to wait... finally my small pizza was done and now they can't find the large pizza...Totaly clueless...I admit my temper got the best of me and I left without my pizza...The manager said "have a nice day" not I'm sorry ...I will never go back in...it's really too bad as I own a small company nearby and frequently by pizza for all the satff...NOT THERE...NOT EVER
re: julialw
I've been twice and both times the service was fine. It's just takeout. You call, you go, you give money, they give food. There hasn't been any unpleasantness on my visits.
re: pollystyrene
You have to call first? What if you are driving by the area, pull in on impulse and take a look at what they've got before ordering? I'm trying to figure out if their service is consistently bad when one doesn't call in their order ahead of time.
re: Ralphie_in_Boston
I haven't tried just popping in for pizza/sandwiches because I don't like to stand around waiting, but I guess I'd expect to wait 20-30 minutes depending how busy it is. When I just stop in to get pastries, they're right there to take and fill my order quickly, but I don't know about the cooked-to-order stuff. Oh, and they have a takeout menu that makes ordering over the phone easy.
re: pollystyrene
OK that's what I was getting at...the scenario of popping in for pastries....something I need to remember to do the next time I'm out that way. thx
Someone there needs to take "food establishment management 101." Went at lunch time. Big garbage barrel right in front of their front door and it was overflowing with trash onto the little enclosure where they have tables and chairs for customers. You had to step over the cheesy, greasy pizza boxes to get into the place. (Ugh!). People sitting there eating surrounded by other people's trash...
Anyway, the floor was dirty inside, too. I told the help about the trash and they just looked at me. No one moved to clean it up....
That said, their meatball wrap was very good, but I'm not sure I'll go back as they simply don't have a clue and it makes me wonder if the FRONT of the house is like that, what's the BACK of the house like...

A process for removing both the silicon nitride layer and polysilicon layer in a poly-buffered LOCOS process which utilizes hot phosphoric acid and nitric acid is disclosed.
1. A method of semiconductor integrated circuit fabrication comprising:
forming a layer of polysilicon overlying a substrate;
forming a layer of silicon nitride overlying said layer of polysilicon;
subjecting said substrate having said layer of polysilicon and said layer of silicon nitride to a first bath comprised of phosphoric acid which does not contain nitric acid, and then to a second bath comprising phosphoric and nitric acid, thereby removing said layer of polysilicon and said layer of silicon nitride.
2. The method of claim 1 in which a layer of silicon dioxide underlies said layer of polysilicon.
3. The method of claim 1 in which the upper surface of said polysilicon layer is cleaned prior to formation of said silicon nitride layer.
4. The, method of claim 3 in which said cleaning step utilizes HF.
5. The method of claim 1 in which the upper surface of said silicon nitride layer is cleaned prior to said subjecting step.
6. The method of claim 5 in which said cleaning step utilizes HF.
7. The method of claim 2 further including the steps of:
removing said silicon dioxide layer to expose said substrate;
forming at least one transistor upon said substrate.
This invention relates to integrated circuit manufacturing in general, and more particularly to etching processes utilized in silicon semiconductor integrated circuits.
In the initial stages of conventional silicon integrated circuit processing, a silicon substrate is covered by a pad oxide and a silicon nitride layer. The silicon nitride and pad oxide are subsequently patterned to expose predetermined regions of more or less bare silicon. An oxidation step is performed to create a field oxide, sometimes called an isolation oxide, in the regions where bare silicon had been exposed. The above-described process is often termed the LOCOS process ("local oxidation of silicon").
A variant of the LOCOS process is the poly-buffered LOCOS process in which a layer of polysilicon is formed between the pad oxide and the silicon nitride layer. The polysilicon layer helps to relieve stresses created during the growth of the field oxide.
In both the LOCOS and the poly-buffered LOCOS processes, after the field oxide is grown, it is desirable to remove both the silicon nitride and the polysilicon layer (if it is employed). (Frequently, the underlying pad oxide is also removed.) Typically, the silicon nitride layer is removed by etching in hot phosphoric add. The polysilicon layer is subsequently removed by a dry etch process. Unfortunately, the phosphoric acid wet etch often used to remove the silicon nitride creates small pits in the polysilicon. The dry etch process which is subsequently utilized to remove the polysilicon, being anisotropic, transfers the pits in the polysilicon downward into the pad oxide or, under over-etch conditions, into the silicon substrate. This pitting of the pad oxide and the underlying substrate is undesirable.
Risk of damage to the pad oxide or underlying substrate is alleviated by the present invention which utilizes phosphoric acid and nitric add to etch both polysilicon and silicon nitride layers.
FIGS. 1-3 are cross-sectional views of an integrated circuit, which are helpful in understanding the principles of the invention.
In FIG. 1, reference numeral 11 denotes a substrate which may be silicon, doped silicon, epitaxial silicon, etc. In general, the term substrate is used to refer to any material having a surface upon which other materials may be adhered or deposited. Pad oxide 15, polysilicon layer 17, and silicon nitride layer 19 have been deposited upon substrate 11, and polysilicon layer 17 and silicon nitride layer 19 have been subsequently patterned. (In some processes, polysilicon layer 17 is not patterned, and the polysilicon is consumed in the subsequent field oxide oxidation process.) A wide range of thicknesses for layers 15, 17, and 19 is common in the semiconductor industry.
After polysilicon layer 17 has been formed (and before silicon nitride layer 19 is formed), the upper surface of polysilicon layer 17 is cleaned in, for example, 100:1 HF for approximately two minutes or in 15:1 HF for approximately one minute. The cleaning step removes any oxide which may have formed on the upper surface of the polysilicon. Removal of the oxide facilitates subsequent wet etching of polysilicon layer 17. If the oxide is not removed, it resists attack by phosphoric acid and considerably impedes removal of polysilicon layer 17.
After the cleaning step, the wafer is not exposed for any significant period of time to room ambient (to prevent re-oxidation) and nitride formation is begun without significant delay.
Previously-employed removal techniques, which included dry-etching of the polysilicon, do not include a cleaning step prior to nitride formation.
In FIG. 2, field oxide 21 has been grown, for example, by thermal oxidation in steam. Other methods of oxidation may also be employed, such as oxidation in dry oxygen (which requires more time) or high pressure oxidation (which is less easily controlled). It is then desirable to remove both silicon nitride layer 19 and polysilicon layer 17 without significant risk of damage to underlying pad oxide 15 or upper substrate surface 23. Before attempting to remove both layers 19 and 17, another cleaning step, utilizing 15:1 HF for approximately two minutes is performed to remove any silicon dioxide or silicon oxynitride which may have formed on the upper surface of layer 19. (The presence of silicon dioxide or silicon oxynitride will inhibit the effectiveness of the subsequent wet etch.)
Approximately two minutes is sufficient for the cleaning step if the field oxide has been grown in steam to a thickness of 5000-6000 Å. Shorter time periods (e.g., one and one-half minutes) may be suitable for thinner field oxides or field oxides formed by high pressure oxidation.
Our process for removing both layers 19 and 17 employs hot phosphoric acid, H3 PO4 and nitric acid HNO3. The hot phosphoric acid and nitric acid removes both the silicon nitride and the underlying polysilicon. In a first embodiment, the phosphoric acid and nitric acid are in a single bath at a temperature of 140° C.-200° C. (A temperature of 165° C. seems to provide adequate removal of nitride and polysilicon without causing undue equipment corrosion.) Higher acid temperature promotes quicker nitride/polysilicon removal. Whatever temperature is chosen, the phosphoric acid concentration may be selected anywhere between fully concentrated (i.e., approximately 95%) and that concentration at which the acid solution bath boils.
The etch rate of single crystalline silicon is at least two times less than the etch rate of silicon dioxide. Thus, the etch process is highly selective to silicon dioxide (and crystalline silicon).
In other words, the etch rates of silicon nitride, polysilicon, and silicon dioxide, respectively, are in the ratio 80:20:1. The goal of the etching process is to completely strip the silicon nitride 19 and polysilicon 17 without significant damage to underlying silicon dioxide 15 or crystalline silicon 11. Consequently, the desired thickness of the underlying silicon dioxide 15, relative to the thicknesses of the polysilicon 17 and silicon nitride 19 is given by the formula (assuming a safety factor of 2): ##EQU1## where A=thickness of silicon nitride layer,
B=thickness of polysilicon layer,
C=thickness of silicon dioxide,
S=safety factor (typically=2).
Depending on the application, safety factors greater or less than 2 may be acceptable.
Applicants have found that the growth process which produces field oxide 21 induces high stresses in the adjacent polysilicon layer 17. The stressed polysilicon layer 17 etches at a rate somewhat greater than the rate of 13 Å/min. mentioned above (which was obtained on an unstressed sample).
FIG. 3 illustrates the structure of FIGS. 1 and 2 after layers 17 and 19 have been removed, leaving only pad oxide 15. Subsequent processing may then be performed in accordance with conventional semiconductor practice.
We have found that the effectiveness of the wet etch process described above may be enhanced by the addition of nitric acid to the phosphoric acid bath. Addition of 100 ml-200 ml nitric acid to a five gallon bath of phosphoric acid is desirable. (If the bath is cool (room temperature), the nitric acid concentration may be near 20%. If the bath is hot, i.e., 165° C.-180° C., the nitric acid concentration may be reduced to as low as 3-5% since the nitric acid will boil away.) Using a heated (165°-180° C.) bath to which 3-5% nitric acid was added (when the bath was hot), an etch rate of 20 Å/min. for polysilicon and 60 Å/min. for silicon nitride was observed. Using 20% nitric acid, for example, at 165° C. with at least a partially boiling bath, etch rates of approximately 55 Å/min. have been observed for silicon nitride; 13 Å/min. have been observed for polysilicon; and 0.7 Å/min. have been observed for silicon dioxide. Thus, addition of the nitric acid improves the polysilicon etch rate without significantly affecting selectivity with respect to oxide. Furthermore, bath life is improved when 3% nitric acid is added.
In a second embodiment, a two step wet etching process is employed. It is believed that, with time, a bath containing nitric acid becomes slowly contaminated with dissolved materials from production wafers and the initial concentration of nitric acid decreases. Thus, the effectiveness of a bath with nitric acid for etching the polysilicon layer diminishes over time, and the bath must be replaced comparatively frequently. In the two-step process, the bulk of the silicon nitride is removed in the first bath. This bath is composed of hot phosphoric acid only, and the etch time is approximately 80 minutes. The second step of the etch (approximately 20 minutes) is used to etch through the silicon nitride-polysilicon interface, and the bath is made up with hot phosphoric and an initial 25% solution of HNO3. Loading effects are minimized during this second step as a comparatively small amount of material is removed in the second step. Therefore, use of a two-step removal technique allows for minimization of any aging effects. In addition, since the bulk removal occurs in the first step, contamination during the second (and final) step will be minimized.

With the
start of the Qantas A380 service scheduled for
October 20, the Australian flag carrier is making terminal changes
to more efficiently accommodate passengers flying into and out of
Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). Qantas currently operates
out of Terminals 3 and 4, and Tom Bradley International Terminal
Effective October 1, Qantas arrival and departure operations
will be rearranged in preparation for the arrival of the new A380
All Qantas A380 services will be operated from TBIT, which has
undergone major enhancements in anticipation of the first arrival
of very large aircraft like the A380. While other Qantas flights
will be affected by the terminal changes, the code share services
to Fiji, Mexico and Tahiti will remain unaffected.
"As the first airline to bring the A380 to Los Angeles
International Airport, we have carefully reviewed our entire
operational requirements and made the necessary adjustments to
ensure a smooth transition for our passengers," said Wally R.
Mariani, Qantas Airways senior executive vice president, The
Americas and Pacific.
Effective next month, TBIT will accommodate all non-stop flights
between Sydney, Melbourne and New York, while Terminal 4 will be
used for flights between Brisbane and Auckland/Melbourne.
Qantas says passengers arriving at LAX Terminal 4, who are
traveling to Sydney or Melbourne or New York, can easily and
conveniently transfer to TBIT by way of a complimentary dedicated
shuttle service departing from Gate 44. The shuttle is for same-day
Qantas connecting passengers and operates daily from 4:00 pm to
midnight... and keeps passengers airside, eliminating the need for
repeat security screening.
For other connections, an inter-terminal bus provides free
transportation between all LAX terminals on a regular basis, which
can be accessed from the center island on the Arrivals level from
all terminals.

When looking to dip out of the cold, all you really need is the right environs where you can sit back and imbibe. The congenial Bar Next Door makes for an ideal hideout. Nestled in the basement of a restored townhouse, this charming and diminutive bar is enlivened by hanging portraits, flickering candlelight, and cozy black seating. The outside world loses shape with the help of soft live jazz provided by various artists who pass through every weeknight, costing you a worthwhile $5 cover. The menu of drinks is extensive, showing off over 50 specialties25 are served hot with whipped cream (try the butterscotch-schnapps-laden Nikki Coffee, $8; it's perfect for dissolving that late-autumn chill). There's also a shorter and moderately priced wine list (most glasses only cost $8). Plus, if you get hungry, there's a cheese menu that offers selections that arrive with crusty toasted flatbread, or you can opt to order Tuscan dishes from the attached trattoria, La Lanterna di Vittorio. The season might be getting brisker and more hectic by the minute, but while you're here, you probably won't give a damn.

Posted Tue, Jul 13, 2010 by Space Junkie
The arbitrator, a tech one cruiser-class Amarr ship, has two exceptional and advantageous capabilities: a bonus to using tracking disruptors, and a bonus to drone usage. It is one of the few non-Gallente ships that receives a bonus to using drones, making it an excellent choice for any player that has developed those skills. It is also easily underestimated, despite being able to pack a wallop between its two advantages. As a tech one cruiser, the arbitrator is very cheap, with a good cash to effectiveness ratio.
This guide covers fitting and using an arbitrator for PvP combat, with a brief treatment of using it to run missions included at the end.
Why Fly The Arbitrator?
The Arbitrator relies on drones and electronic warfare to get the drop on opponents.
Decent electronic warfare platforms that do not specialize in the Caldari-flavored ECM modules are rare. Indeed, they are so rare that players in EVE Online will tend to underestimate their capabilities. The arbitrator's potent application of tracking disruptors will offer a compelling lesson for these unwary pilots.
The arbitrator lives and dies based on its drone skills. If you have decent drone skills, which most pilots in EVE Online eventually train, the arbitrator is one of the best options out there. I prefer it to any of the tech one Gallente cruisers because of the utility of tracking disruptors.
About Tracking Disruptors
Tracking disruptors are the Amarr flavor of electronic warfare. They differ significantly from ECM in the following ways:
Tracking disruptors are similar to ECM in that they do nothing against drones, smartbombs, bombs, or any other weapon system or module that does not require locking to be effective.
High Slots (A Dash Of Projectiles)
Autocannons are not lasers, but that's a good thing. These projectiles add a bit of extra punch to your drone damage, and have decent damage flexibility. The medium-range ammo listed above could easily be swapped out for 'Titanium Sabot M' if you find the damage profile of that ammunition more to your taste.
You may also care to carry a long-range ammunition in order to snipe, since you actually have a pretty good lock range. I like 'Proton M' but tastes may vary. This is especially handy if you want to be sitting a bit farther from a gate that you are camping, because you expect that fleeing may be in order.
The small energy neutralizer has very limited range, but can be a life-saver if a frigate-sized ship gets that close. Or a ship with precarious capacitor stability.
As always, faction ammo is better if you find the price tag worth it.
Mid Slots (Tackler and E-War)
Nothing ruins a pilot's day like a warp scrambler. The drawback being that it has very limited range. I strongly suggest ameliorating this by purchasing a tech two warp scrambler, which improves the range of the module from 7.5km to 9km.
The tracking disruptors should probably not be loaded with scripts unless you know exactly what you are doing. Carry the scripts, just in case you end up in a situation where you need them. If you are being hit by a target that is 100km off, ruining his tracking is no longer as effective, and you should switch to an 'Optimal Range Disruption' script. Conversely, if you are fighting a target that is only 1km away, you should load a 'Tracking Speed Disruption' script
Upgrading to "named" equipment will yield significantly better results. The "MWD" module listed above is now available for very lower prices, thanks to the Tyrannis expansion, and is much superior to the basic tech one version. Named tracking disruptors can get pretty expensive, though, so do not go for the best-named version unless you really, really know what you are doing.
A tech two warp scrambler has much better range than its tech one version and is probably the single best thing to upgrade to tech two on this fitting.

1930s Steamboat Found By Divers In Lake Erie
After resting undisturbed on the lake bottom for 75 years, the steamboat George J. Whelan came to life Thursday for nine divers, who were clearly excited about their opportunity.
"You can dive a whole lifetime and never be the first one on [a wreck]," said Wayne Rush, who drove two hours from Port Allegany, Pa., for the dive.
Rush was the first of the divers to reach the Whelan in 145 feet of water eight miles from shore.
Rush and the others said the boat was in impeccable condition, with all of its portholes open. During their brief examination, they said they saw kerosene lanterns, fire extinguishers and porcelain light fixtures, more than enough to pique their interest.
"Next summer, I'll be out here every chance I get," said diver Dan Kuzdale of Dunkirk.
Lake Erie has at least 1,750 shipwrecks, according to Great Lakes shipwreck historian Mike Walker. He said other estimates put the total at closer to 3,000.
Only about 300 have been located, he said, and serious divers in the area are likely to have made multiple trips to most of them.
"The Holy Grail for divers in the Great Lakes is a virgin wreck," he said, noting that the cold, fresh water helps preserve wrecks for hundreds of years. "That boat is literally sitting the way it went down."

The overall size was too big and did not have a clean fit look. The velcro provided was not suitable as the glue was not strong enough.

This is a well made dash cover. Fits my Silverado to a T. Very simple to install with the included self stick velco strips. Would definitely buy this product again. I really like the black sedona suede in my truck. Very nice texture to the material.
