A distributed charge pump system uses a delay element and frequency dividers to generate out of phase pump clock signals that drive different charge pumps, to offset peak current clock edges for each charge pump and thereby reduce overall peak power. Clock signal division and phase offset may be extended to multiple levels for further smoothing of the pump clock signal transitions. A dual frequency divider may be used which receives the clock signal and its complement, and generates two divided signals that are 90° out of phase. In an illustrative embodiment the clock generator comprises a variable-frequency clock source, and a voltage regulator senses an output voltage of the charge pumps, generates a reference voltage based on a currently selected frequency of the variable-frequency clock source, and temporarily disables the charge pumps (by turning off local pump clocks) when the output voltage is greater than the reference voltage.

1. Field of the Invention
The present invention generally relates to voltage supplies for integrated circuits, and more particularly to distributed charge pump systems used to power electronic memory structures such as dynamic random-access memory (DRAM).
2. Description of the Related Art
Power management has become a dominant concern in the development of data processing systems. Excess power usage is not only costly and inefficient, but also leads to heat management problems. These problems are particularly pronounced in computer systems having large amounts of memory. State of the art computer systems typically use dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) which is preferable over other memory structures such as static random-access memory (SRAM) because DRAM is more dense. However, DRAM can be more power intensive in circuit blocks for active power supply generation and refresh. SRAM uses a flip-flop memory cell but DRAM uses a capacitor-based memory cell which, due to current leakage, must be regularly refreshed. DRAM can consume a significant portion of a system's overall power.
Power management has become even more challenging with the advent of new memory technologies like embedded DRAM (eDRAM). This new design relies on the silicon-on-insulator (SOI) technology pioneered by International Business Machines Corp. using deep-trench capacitors. Deep-trench (3-dimensional) capacitors have a reduced footprint on the semiconductor substrate, and an eDRAM array has about one-third the area of a comparable DRAM array. Reducing the size of the memory makes it easier to embed the array on the same integrated circuit chip, e.g., a microprocessor or an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), to provide a system-on-a-chip solution. An exemplary commercial microprocessor might devote up to 60% of its surface area to memory. Replacing conventional DRAM with eDRAM cells allows the chip designer to build smaller chips and reduce the length of wire that data must travel as it commutes around the chip, resulting in the fastest memory access times ever recorded. Embedding memory further permits much wider buses and higher operation speeds and, due to the much higher density of eDRAM, larger amounts of memory can potentially be used.
An eDRAM array requires an on-chip power supply having precise high and low voltages (positive and negative) for the word lines that drive the rows of the memory array. The high voltage is used to activate a word line, and the low voltage is for standby.
Rails 20, 22 have pairs of taps connected to respective word line drivers 24-1, 24-n. Each word line driver 24 is used to activate a corresponding row of memory cells in eDRAM array 26. In this example eDRAM array 26 is 1200 cells wide, i.e., each word line is connected to 1200 cells in that row. A memory address for a requested memory block is decoded by memory control logic (not shown) and the resulting signal is used to activate the appropriate word line driver which then switches the voltage for that word line to Vpp while the other word lines are maintained at Vwl. The switching circuitry within a word line driver 24 uses a separate supply voltage Vdd (e.g., around 1.0 volt). Sense lines 28 a, 28 b connected to the inputs of word line drivers 24 are used to provide feedback to regulators 14 a, 14 b. Regulators 14 a, 14 b determine an upper limit of the pump voltages and temporarily disable a pump core if the output voltage exceeds the limit. Reference generator 12 generates an internal stable voltage that is used by regulators 14 a, 14 b for comparison purposes. Reference generator may be a band gap circuit or voltage divider, or an external reference can be provided.
Various pump designs can be used to deliver the voltages from pump cores 16 a, 16 b, including for example the Cockcroft-Walton voltage multiplier, the Dickson charge pump, and the Nakagome voltage doubler. The Cockcroft-Walton voltage multiplier uses a ladder network of capacitors and diodes or switches connected to a low voltage input. As a charge cascades through the capacitors it successively increases to finally yield a higher voltage at the output. The Dickson charge pump operates in a similar manner but in the Dickson design the nodes of the diode chain are coupled to the inputs via capacitors in parallel instead of in series. The Nakagome voltage doubler uses switched capacitors whose output nodes are connected to cross-coupled transistors.
Peak electrical current in these charge pumps occurs at the clock signal edges, i.e., rising and falling. While peak current is not particularly troublesome for a single charge pump, it can become excessive in larger systems having multiple charge pumps. For example, a microprocessor chip may include an on-board level 3 (L3) cache memory having 32 megabytes of memory employing 96 charge pumps. If these pumps all run on the same clock signal, charge pump peak power and transient current supply current is multiplied by a factor of 96, which would significantly burden the system power budget and heat sink cost.
Methods have been devised which address peak power consumption in voltage supplies for integrated circuits, but these methods still have various disadvantages. In the construction of application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs), a granular DRAM cell is provided with its own pump and oscillator in a single circuit block. This approach does not work well in high performance systems with large embedded DRAM since instantaneous switching power can still be many times higher. Half-cycle clock edge usage does not affect peak current in switched-capacitor (cross-coupled) charge pumps since both clock phases are already used. In a more recent clock distribution system design (Montecito), a phase-locked loop (PLL) circuit feeds many digital frequency dividers (DFDs) several of which are phase and frequency aligned. Each DFD contains a delay locked loop (DLL) and a state machine that dynamically select among 64 DLL phases. At the second level clock buffer (SLCB) level, regional active deskew phase comparators are used to reduce skews due to process, voltage and temperate variations. Half-rate 0° and 90° differential clocks are multiplied to return to the full rate clock at the SLCB level. This multiplicity of blocks is inefficient for large on-board designs, and also presents problems with variability and the power burden on the clock network itself. In another clock distribution system used for polysilicon thin-film transistor displays, delay elements are employed to achieve phase offsets. This approach requires a time constant match between pump operation and the delay circuit blocks. The delay block is part of the clock excitation path and contributes to pump system power usage. Phase offset by delay stages does not work well for newer technologies (with FO4 delays in the neighborhood of 10 picoseconds) since it may take up to 250 such delay stages to move just one clock edge of a 100 MHz clock by 25% of its period.
On-die regulated voltage level generation is becoming essential to reduce system cost and power delivery complexity in large chips with multiple power islands. In particular, supply generation for eDRAM word lines in server class applications entails special challenges because of the stringent power, performance, cell retention, variability, and distribution requirements. It would, therefore, be desirable to devise an improved charge pump system which can overcome the foregoing problems but still have an efficient energy conversion topology. It would be further advantageous if the system could easily be optimized for active and leakage power.
It is therefore one object of the present invention to provide an improved clock system for a voltage supply having multiple charge pumps.
It is another object of the present invention to provide such a system which does not entail an excessive number of delay stages but still reduces peak power usage in a distributed charge pump system, particularly one utilizing switched-capacitor charge pumps.
It is yet another object of the present invention to provide such a system which can be further optimized for voltage regulation.
The foregoing objects are achieved in a distributed charge pump system generally comprising first and second charge pumps, a clock generator which provides a first clock signal, a delay element connected to the clock generator which creates a second clock signal that is out of phase with the first clock signal, a first clock divider which receives the first clock signal and generates a first lower-frequency signal that clocks the first charge pump, and a second clock divider which receives the second clock signal and generates a second lower-frequency signal out of phase with the first lower-frequency signal that clocks the second charge pump, to offset peak current clock edges for each charge pump and thereby reduce overall peak power. Preferably, the clock dividers divide the clock frequency by two, the second clock signal is approximately 180° out of phase with the first clock signal, and the second lower-frequency signal is approximately 90° out of phase with the first lower-frequency signal. The clock signal division and phase offset may be extended to multiple levels for further smoothing of the pump clock signal transitions. The clock dividers may be integrated into a dual frequency divider comprising a first input which receives a first clock signal, a second input which receives a second clock signal that is out of phase with the first clock signal (e.g.,) 180°, a first divider circuit connected to said first and second inputs which generates a first divided signal having a frequency less than that of the first clock signal (e.g., half), and a second divider circuit connected to said first and second inputs which generates a second divided signal having a frequency equal to that of the first divided signal and out of phase with the first divided signal (e.g., 90°). The dual frequency divider outputs may be selectively disabled.
The charge pumps may be switched-capacitor charge pumps. In an illustrative embodiment the clock generator comprises a variable-frequency clock source including a 2 GHz source signal and a controllable frequency divider that selectively divides the source signal by 4, 8 or 16, to generate intermediate clock frequencies at 500 MHz, 250 MHz, or 125MHz. The clock generator may further include a frequency-tunable oscillator, and a multiplexer which selects between the clock source and the oscillator to output the first clock signal. The charge pump system may further include a voltage regulator which senses an output voltage of the charge pumps, generates a reference voltage based on a currently selected frequency of the variable-frequency clock source, and temporarily disables the charge pumps (by turning off local pump clocks) when the output voltage is greater than the reference voltage.
The above as well as additional objectives, features, and advantages of the present invention will become apparent in the following detailed written description.
The present invention may be better understood, and its numerous objects, features, and advantages made apparent to those skilled in the art by referencing the accompanying drawings.
The use of the same reference symbols in different drawings indicates similar or identical items.
With reference now to the figures, and in particular with reference to
Charge pumps 38 a, 38 b are preferably designed with an internal slew-optimized voltage doubling topology, cross-coupled to transfer charges efficiently during both clock phases. One example of a positive pump engine 38′ which may be used with the present invention is illustrated in further detail in
The input node of capacitor 42 is coupled to a power supply voltage Vdd by a p-type metal oxide semiconducting (PMOS) transistor 46 and to electrical ground by an n-type metal oxide semiconducting (NMOS) transistor 48. PMOS transistor 46 is controlled by a first gating signal derived from a first clock signal "clk_i_wide" and NMOS transistor 48 is controlled by a second gating signal derived from a second clock signal "clk_i_narrow". The duty cycle of the "clk_i_wide" signal is greater than 50% while the duty cycle of the "clk_i_narrow" is less than 50%. The two signals are non-overlapping for break-before-make switching to avoid leakage. Each of these clock signals pass through a series of buffers (inverters) which provide a desired time delay.
The input node of capacitor 44 is similarly coupled to the power supply voltage Vdd by another PMOS transistor 50 and to electrical ground by another NMOS transistor 52. PMOS transistor 50 is controlled by a third gating signal derived from the "clk_i_narrow" signal and NMOS transistor 52 is controlled by a fourth gating signal derived from the "clk_i_wide" signal. The clock signals again pass through one or more buffers or inverters which provide a desired time delay such that the input node of capacitor 42 is charging (connected to Vdd) when the input node of capacitor 44 is discharging (connected to ground) during the first clock phase, and the input node of capacitor 44 is charging when the input node of capacitor 42 is discharging during the second clock phase.
The pumping devices 46, 48, 50, 52 are preferably of non-body contact type to conserve area. The region 54 containing the inverters and pumping devices (the charging circuit) is preferably thin-oxide in order to support lower voltages. This two-phase inverter topology combined with the use of wide and narrow clock signals provides superior clock edge control while reducing clock loading, and is relatively compact.
Two cross-coupled PMOS transistors 56, 58 are respectively connected to the output nodes of capacitors 42, 44. The source terminals of transistors 56, 58 are interconnected to provide the output voltage Vpp of the charge pump. Each output node is also coupled to a reference voltage by respective PMOS transistors 60, 62; for the positive pump embodiment this reference voltage is the power supply voltage Vdd. The gate of PMOS transistor 60 is coupled to the pump output voltage Vpp by a PMOS transistor 64 and to electrical ground by an NMOS transistor 66. The gates of PMOS transistor 64 and NMOS transistor 66 are in turn controlled by the output of a level shifter 68. The high voltage rail of level shifter 68 is connected to the pump output voltage Vpp. Level shifter 68 has a positive polarity and its input is the "clk_i_narrow" signal. The gate of PMOS transistor 62 is similarly coupled to the pump output voltage Vpp by another PMOS transistor 70 and to electrical ground by another NMOS transistor 72. The gates of PMOS transistor 70 and NMOS transistor 72 are in turn controlled by the output of another level shifter 74. The high voltage rail of level shifter 74 is connected to the pump output voltage Vpp. Level shifter 74 has a negative polarity (its output is the logical complement of the input) and its input is the "clk_i_wide" signal. This topology for the side charging devices 60, 62 provides a particularly well-regulated voltage level output. The output nodes of each capacitor 42, 44 are also connected to clamp circuits 76 which are used in an override mode to disable the charge pumps.
A local pump clock circuit 40 is used to generate the "clk_i_wide" and "clk_i_narrow" signals. Two adjustable signals "starve_p" and "starve_n" control the edge separation for the "clk_i_wide" and "clk_i_narrow" signals. A pump enable signal ("pump_en") is used for the override (clamp) mode; during normal operation of the charge pump the pump enable signal is turned on. When disabled ("pump_en" turned off), wide output is set to 1 and narrow output is set to 0 to shut off both phases of the charge pump.
A negative pump engine analog to positive pump engine 38′ may be constructed to provide a low level regulated voltage (Vwl) by switching the polarities and inputs of the level shifters and switching the reference voltages for the side transistors. Further details regarding the construction and operation of the positive and negative pump engines, pump clock 40, level shifters 68, 74, clamps 76, alternative designs for charge pumps, and other features may be found in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/927,784 which is hereby incorporated. Those skilled in the art will appreciate however that the present invention is not limited to any specific charge pump construction. For example, inverted pump clock inputs can be fed to two single-ended pumps that share the same clock source.
Two alternative designs for the frequency dividers are depicted in
In the frequency divider 34-2 shown in
The AND/NOR gate combination logic 110 of
While distributed charge pump system 30 utilizes two separate frequency dividers 34 a, 34 b as shown in
A more sophisticated embodiment of a clock network for a distributed charge pump system using the present invention is shown in
In this implementation first-level frequency dividers 138 are single-ended, and second-level frequency dividers have two phase-shifted outputs, e.g., using dual frequency dividers 34-3. Buffers 140 add 90° of phase to the clock input for second-level frequency dividers 142 a, with the result that transitions for the four clock signals "clkA", "clkB", "clkC", "clkD" of a single pump cluster are interleaved, i.e., offset at eight different phases. This smoothing of peak power usage yields significant power reduction in systems having large numbers of charge pumps, e.g., an on-chip cache memory for a microprocessor. The frequency dividers also conveniently act as local (or sector) clock buffers. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that this multi-level use of dividers can be further expanded to more than two levels, and in more complex embodiments the dividers can have divisors greater than two.
Charge pump efficiency is related to clock frequency, and the present invention may easily be adapted to take advantage of this dependency by providing controllable divider 132 as a variable-frequency clock source. Experimentation suggests that the most efficient frequency range for a reference voltage (Vdd) of 0.8 to 1.0 volts is roughly 100-500 MHz, so in this embodiment controllable divider 132 receives a 2 GHz clock signal and selectively divides that signal by a divisor of 4, 8 or 16, to generate intermediate clock frequencies at 500 MHz, 250 MHz, or 125 MHz. The divisor may be selected at the factory or in response to a run-time determination. The flexibility of the clock generator frequency allows for pump efficiency optimization in the event of variations in hardware characteristics.
The further inclusion of frequency-tunable oscillator 134 facilitates burn-in, very low-frequency array functional testing, and other similar situations. Under those conditions, the pump clock is supplied from the on-chip oscillator via selection by multiplexer 136 to maintain pump efficiency and desired voltage level. When implemented in localized fashions, oscillators can be designed with preset start-up states to provide known phase offsets between different localities.
Pumped voltage levels may be further regulated in various manners, such as by comparing the divided sense point voltage to a reference level, and turning each pump on and off by enabling or disabling its clock accordingly. A voltage regulator 144 is used for this purpose. Voltage regulator 144 receives the clock signal from multiplexer 136 and compares a reference level to the sensed voltage (Vpp) using a comparator. Although any sensitive comparator will suffice, the comparator is preferably one of the reduced-jitter digital comparators described in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/464,672 which is hereby incorporated. The reference voltage may vary considerably depending upon the pump design, in the range of 0 volts (ground) to the power supply voltage (Vdd). The sense voltage is sampled according to the intermediate frequency output of controllable divider 132, i.e., at a frequency that is higher than the local pump clock frequency but lower than the clock frequency for the powered electronic structure, e.g., the eDRAM array. If the sensed voltage is greater than the indicated reference level, the "pump_control" signal is activated to temporarily turn off the charge pumps (by disabling the clock signals from pump clock 40).
To prevent a high-power condition due to delays in comparator decision registration, a latch structure which regulates switching thresholds may be incorporated prior to the pump clock enable feed. To control ripples, each pump output may also employ deep-trench capacitors, in addition to distributed deep-trench capacitors and circuit loads on the distribution grids. Multiple feedback sense points can be taken from calculated locations in a word line grid (Vpp and Vwl) to control the pump duty cycle and minimize RC drops. A 15KΩ shunt to Vdd or ground may be added to individual positive and negative pump outputs, respectively, to block low-frequency noise and ringing.
The present invention thus significantly reduces peak power consumption in distributed charge pump system, with low overhead and low cost. The resulting power profile is highly controllable and predictable. In particular the invention is very useful for an on-chip, word line dual supply generation system for 45 nm SOI eDRAM technology. This adaptive on-chip voltage solution greatly enhances eDRAM operation and scalability.
Although the invention has been described with reference to specific embodiments, this description is not meant to be construed in a limiting sense. Various modifications of the disclosed embodiments, as well as alternative embodiments of the invention, will become apparent to persons skilled in the art upon reference to the description of the invention. It is therefore contemplated that such modifications can be made without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention as defined in the appended claims.

La Bonne Boulangerie made the cake for my wedding last weekend at Giorgio's and not only was it beautiful it was DELICIOUS! Corey was great with working with my husband and I to finalize a style and pick out our cake flavors. The cake was more beautiful than I could ever imagine and it was delicious. The fillings were amazing and the fondant was tasty too! I'm not a big cake person but this cake was unbelievable. Everyone is still raving about it and I am excited to dig into my top tier again this weekend (my husband and I already dug into it last week after the wedding!). Thank you so much to Corey and the rest of the team at LA Bonne Boulangerie for making such a beautiful cake for my wedding!

This family owned/ operated bakery is absolutely fabulous! Once you experience the high quality and special attention to details that LBB provides, you will never want to go anywhere else. We used them for our wedding and they exceeded our expectations! We requested a three- tiered sicillian cassada (cannoli cream filling, white sponge cake, and covered in marzipan) wedding cake that had a glutten free topper. I showed Corey, the owner, a picture of my design concept and the final result was beautiful! On a personal note-the day before the wedding I forgot to stop by with the final payment and the girls from the bakery called to remind me- they were so nice and understanding as they took it over the phone. The cake we had was the best wedding cake I have ever eaten, I got so many compliments, and I plan on using this bakery for all special cake occasions!

all i can say is WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW.... I had the most beautiful wedding cake i have ever seen and it was THE MOST DELICIOUS cake i have ever tasted. We worked with a sweet man who was very experienced and very knowledgable. I am not sure if he was the manager or owner, He had us look through some books and pointed out pictures of cakes that had a "fall" theme. They made our cake look like a fairy tale cake, with beautiful autumn petals and leaves around each tier. ALL of my GUESTS LOVED IT LOVED IT LOVED IT!!!!!! Thank you so much for making my wedding day so special. LOVE YOU GUYS!!!

The cake was beautiful and exactly how we wanted it. Typically wedding cakes are either stale or spongy, but our cake was so fresh and tasty! The staff was also wonderful, recommending a delicious mocha filling that was a huge hit with our guests.

Friday I arrived to the hectic, rainy, grey and cold city that I for 3,5 years to called my home.
From a sunny and relaxed little island in the Mediterranean to a city where the pulse is sky high, everyone is dressed in black and constantly rushing towards something.
It was the weekend of survival of the fittest, even though I had to opt out for the race due to the ankle, I felt that I did achieve something when surviving coming to Victoria station where the amount of people outnumbered the whole population on my island and they were all stressed and determined.
I realized quickly that to survive I had to drop my newly found "Mela attitude" and get back into my London-survival-mood I practiced for years.
So I did and I survived…
We stayed with my girls over the weekend and it was a sweet reuinion
The girls and the Rob
The girls and Mr One O seven in the #kitchenbar
London will always have a special place in my hears and even though I cant see myself living there anymore I do appreciate a lot to come and visit it now and again
And the race?
A special post about is coming later…

- Great ambiance!butterflyeyez8Dined on 11/22/2014Our family had dinner there on Saturday. This place is awesome. The music was great and the food is amazing!! Oh and complimentary parking puts the cherry on top!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Atmosphere and food was good, but food fell flat.mrp64Dined on 11/19/2014First time trying this restaurant and while I will go back and try again, the caliber of the food compared to Fritti and Sotto Sotto was a step down. I ordered the Chicken Enchiladas and the chicken was a bit dry, as was the rice. The food wasn't bad, it just didn't wow me. My dining guest had fajitas and picked out some of the chicken from his meal leaving a huge amount of onions. He ate about 1/3 of the food and was underwhelmed as was I. The service was great, the atmosphere is hip and cool, but the food fell a bit short for me. I need to try again to see if it was just a bad night.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fun, Authentic MexicanDeniseDined on 11/1/2014Too many places are one step up from Taco Bell. This place, while having items that sound like everyday Mexican, elevates it by bringing really authentic recipes and flavors to bear. We really liked the special $15 menu - not sure when it was available - which gave us a lovely app and an entree. The servings are generous and the flavors outstanding. The carnitas, normally a bit dry at most places, was moist and well seasoned. We both loved the ceviche. The house margarita is the one to get - it's the only one with Reposada which really makes the drink.Special Features:
- Great mid-town vibeEatlantaDined on 11/1/2014We enjoyed a creative, tasty and fun pre-theater dinner at Escorpion and look forward to going back when we have more time. They have a fixed menu for "speedier service" that provided enough variety for our party of six. I especially LOVED the tilapia ceviche appetizer. The atmosphere was noisy but not enough to deter conversation. Our waiter was very friendly and helpful but his supporting staff [water, chips, plate deliverers] seemed more confused than they should have been and we had to flag them down a couple of times when it would have been nicer if he checked-in on us occasionally. That said, it's a festive, fun, delicious casual mid-town experience and we'll be back!Special Features:
- Pre-show dinnerCindyPDined on 11/1/2014Had dinner and drinks before a show at the Fox. They have have quick options to be sure you can eat and get to the show on time. The chips, salsa & tacos were good but we really liked the strong margaritas: fresh lime juice and good tequila. Service was very attentive and festive for Day of the dead.
- OK BUT NOTHING SPECIALluv2eatDined on 10/29/2014The restaurant had nice décor and the food was not bad. The menu was limited and it seemed that they really pushed the Tacos. Even though I specifically asked the waitress to make sure that our entrees were not brought out while we were still having our appetizer, this is exactly what happened. In fact, it was not 5 minutes after we started on our appetizer that the entrees were brought out. Over all I would think the best thing about the restaurant would be the Tequila Bar. Otherwise, we would not go back.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good Midtown MexKyMissDined on 10/26/2014Had dinner at Escorpion before a show at the Fox. Convenient to theatre, really good service and food. Great choice for pre-event meal!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2008VIPDined on 10/23/2014We've been to Escorpion before and would certainly return. The food is unique and great, and it's a nice change from the other spots in this neighborhood.Special Features:

- Food was tasty but bewareLuv2eatVIPDined on 10/7/2014The chips and salsa were amazing. The food was good but a little too spicy for me. If you are sensitive to spicy food, I would not recommend this place. It was a quiet Tuesday evening and was very empty.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Spot on the CornerTerranceBlountDined on 9/27/2014This is the first time we have came and I have noticed this place for quite some time. It wasn't until I booked it on open table that I realized I was missing out. They place a bit of Spanish music later at night with a DJ among other genres for a good mix. Great for the group of 6 that we had and the crowd was mixed and fun. I certainly will return here with friends when I want to grab a few drinks and just have a bit of fun without going to one of the local bars/clubs; this place serves pretty good food too that is obviously a few steps up from Bar food. The margarita pitchers certainly helped us enjoy the night at that. :-) Also free Valet Parking is behind the building on 5th street so take advantage there.Special Features:
- Not your average MexicanOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 9/27/2014We ate here for the first time Saturday night. The food was top notch and our server was excellent! Certainly not a "fancy" restaurant, but has a great feel to it. For "not your average Mexican food fix" this is your place!I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best margaritas in Atlanta!AngelaHDined on 9/26/2014The food is fantastic and the staff is so friendly, and the margaritas are the best around!Special Features:
- FoxgoerGAdinerDined on 9/24/2014Tried Escorpion for dining before a show at the Fox. They had a special menu to get Fox goers in and out quickly. The food was delicious and our server was great! Ceviche and Baja fish tacos were wonderful! I would go back in a hearbeat!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Updated Review: Same Old, Same OldLexiVIPDined on 9/24/2014I've written past reviews on this place. Every time I go, the service is great. (I think some of the friendliest people in Atlanta work here!) I also LOVE the great outdoor dining options. That said, the food is sub-par, especially at this price point. If you do go, try the Escorpion margarita.Special Features:

- Great food and friendly stafftwothumbsupDined on 7/18/2014My husband and I planned to grab dinner here before a concert at the Botanical Gardens. Unfortunately, due to Atlanta traffic, we were really late. The staff really friendly and did a great job at keeping us on time. The food was much better than I expected. I loved the salsa and the shrimp tacos were delightful. It was a wonderful experience and we definitely plan to go back.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Happy Hour + DinneryummyATLfoodsVIPDined on 7/15/2014Went with a girlfriend for HH drinks and small dinner. The margarita pitchers were delicious (read as: "strong") and the tacos were amazing. We got the queso dip as well, and overall a great experience. Service was pretty slow even with being one of the very few tables there at 5:30pm. Nice view of Peachtree if you sit outside, as long as you don't mind the noise, it's great.Special Features:
- Dinner before Fox showOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 7/13/2014Dinner here several times before seeing show at the Fox. Food is great, service is friendly and quick - they always ask if you are attending a show and cater their service accordingly.
- Great New Findlove2eatmexicanDined on 7/12/2014Service was good. I am not sure if it was sporadic because they respect the group vibe or just because it was busy. It was not bad service but it took a little longer to get refills on water and drinks. Otherwise it was great. It was girls night out and it was not too noisy to yell but a nice level and vibe. I love that we did not have to wait for the whole table to be seated. The ELOTES is a MUST it is great. Did I mention the ELOTES? The tacos were awesome and the chips and salsa were generous. No real complaints and we will definitely return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- In Midtown for businessLuckyDined on 7/11/2014This is great local restaurant in midtown Atlanta. We sat at a table for two on the. NOn-smoking side of the outside dining area. It was not too hot in Atlanta at, so it was perfect. They had a good selection of domestic and imported beers. I selected three tacos with fish for dinner and it was a meal. We started with chips and guacamole. It was excellent and fresh. My colleague had the chle replenish and the flavored were the best we had ever tasted of that dish. Will definitely go back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- JAL1VIPDined on 6/28/2014Excellent, reasonably priced meal. Barbacoa tacos were excellent!Special Features:
- Sub-par for my expectationLexiVIPDined on 6/26/2014I invited a group to come with me to Escorpion prior to attending an event at the Fox. I had been once before and had really enjoyed the drinks, food, and atmosphere. This time, service was slow - although very polite / courteous - and the food was less than exciting. I had two tacos and was disappointed at how little filling was in both (though I remember enjoying them last time). One of my companions ordered the chicken tinga, which was supposed to be a spicy shredded chicken, and it came out with bland flavoring and in giant pieces that had him asking if tinga was actually sausage and not chicken at all. Not sure we'll be back after this experience, especially when there are so many other places to enjoy pre-Fox.Special Features:
- Monday Night $2 tacos potOpenTable Diner Since 2012VIPDined on 6/16/2014Cool place, aid back on Mondays but good deal for $2 tacos and $2 tact's.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- No electricity – no service!DarsBuzzDined on 5/31/2014Ignore review. These review notes originated without dining experience. OpenTable server required filling in the blanks! Had reservations at Escorpion for four. Look forward to the food; menu looks yummy. 7 o'clock reservation: closed due to power outage. Georgia Power estimated at least an hour. Manager extremely nice and terribly apologetic. Will return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Delicious and funyummytummyVIPDined on 5/15/2014We went for a Bridal Shower, and the staff had our table ready and seated us immediately. The service was attentive, quick, and witty. Our server was so much fun, made great recommendations, and never once dropped the ball. He stored our cake, brought it out in a great display, sliced and served it, and boxed it for us when we were ready to leave. The food was fantastic! We had the shrimp and bbq tacos, the quinoa salad and we shared the queso and guacamole. Delicious and very fresh! The margaritas were wonderful and the prices were certainly fair.Special Features:

In Multnomah County You Can Now Grow Pot Worry-Free—But Still Be Fined for a Dime Bag
Showgirls the Musical's One Night of Chips and Kicks
A Multnomah County grand jury has found no criminal wrongdoing in the March 13 police shooting of Adalberto Flores-Haro, a New Columbia resident who, according to media reports and his family, had gone outside with his gun after seeing what looked like a prowler in his yard—only to be shot three times by police.
The shooting came as Portland gang detectives, assisted by Washington County tactical officers, were trying to serve a warrant in a gang case in New Columbia. As officers were approaching their target house, police said at the time, there reportedly was "an exchange" of gunfire at an unrelated home nearby. Portland police later reported that one of the officers works in Hillsboro and that the other two work for the Washington County Sheriff's Office.
Says the DA's office:
Today the Multnomah County Grand Jury returned a "not true bill" finding the use of deadly physical force in the shooting of Adalberto Flores-Haro by members of the Washington County Tactical Negotiation Team did not violate any criminal law.
Mr. Flores-Haro was wounded after confronting members of the team assisting the Portland Police Bureau in the service of a search warrant unrelated to Mr. Flores-Haro at the New Columbia housing development in North Portland on March 13, 2012.

THIS WAS A DAMP SUNDAY MORNING in the Cotswolds, near Milton-under-Wychwood, Oxfordshire, in November 2011. Although I was once born in England, I've lived in Canada since I was six weeks old, with detours to Italy, India, Germany, the UK, and some other strange places from time to time. I'm writing a historical biography about a brilliant American woman named Sarah J. Farmer (1847-1916). Her enterprise at Green Acre in Eliot, Maine, established the 1893 World's Parliament of Religions on a permanent basis, pressing thoughtful Americans to negotiate with a kaleidoscope of spiritual beliefs, social ideals, and ways of life that distant peoples -- as well as homegrown Yankees -- were carting with them into the modern world. And I'm doing it while trying not to starve.
In 2012 I created, edited, and co-wrote 239 Days In America, a social media documentary about 'Abdu'l-Bahá's eight-month-long journey across North America at the culminating moment of the Progressive Era in 1912. He reached across political, religious, racial, class, and gender lines to confront Americans with a vision of human nature, social unity, and the nation's future that was 100 years ahead of its time.
Please join me on Twitter. And I hope you enjoy the Cotswolds.

If You Like Pop Punk And Aren't Listening To The Wonder Years, You're Seriously Missing Out
Get stoked on it.
1. This is The Wonder Years.
2. They're a pop punk band from Philadelphia, and they've been playing for a while (the pigeon is their mascot).
3. His name is Hank. He's a metaphor.
4. Their fans like to call the band "realist" pop punk.
5. Which means they're less like Pete Wentz and Panic! at the Disco dressed up as vampires or whatever.
6. And more like the mopey and fun late-'90s pop punk that came before it.
7. This is their lead singer: He goes by Soupy. His real name is Dan.
8. He's got a lot of feelings.
11. Wonder Years fans are pretty emotional too. Which isn't a bad thing to be.
13. Chances are if you see cardboard on your Tumblr dashboard, it's probably got Wonder Years lyrics on it.
15. It's sort of a thing!
16. Also, their fan art is pretty rad too.
19. There's new video out today for "There, There," which comes off The Wonder Years' most recent album, The Greatest Generation. It's a pretty good jumping off point.
20. But if you're wondering what they sound like live, here's a recording of them playing their song "Local Man Ruins Everything," which is also great.
21. See you in the pit!

Wind Power: Poised for Take Off?

Marketers and Brokers
rates for transportation service. Under fair regulatory treatment, LDCs are eager and able to compete.
Dean T. Casaday
President & CEO
Pennsylvania Gas and Water Co.
Certainly marketers and brokers have added another dimension to the future of LDCs. They have no responsibility to the core customers being served by the utility; their objective is moving gas. If gas does not move, revenues are not generated. Therefore, some marketers and brokers will flow gas whether or not the market is taking it and, in some cases, rely upon the utility to balance the distribution system at the expense of core customers.
To compete on an even footing, the utility must have parity with marketers and brokers relative
to the Gross Receipts Tax,
preferential gas distribution rates for natural gas produced within the regulatory agency's jurisdiction, certain sales taxes, and social responsibility for the customers (em not to mention an opportunity to receive better prices for the release of firm interstate transportation capacity into the secondary market and exemption from the FERC maximum rate cap on released capacity.
Legislation must be enacted to classify brokers and marketers as suppliers of natural gas and related services and subject them to the same rules as the utility. Alternatively, the utility should be exempted from the regulatory constraints. Also, the cost of the gas should be deregulated (em as it is the case in the federal domain (em and exempt from prudence review since the actual cost is always reflected in an unrecovered purchased-gas cost account and the utility pays interest to retail customers on overcollections.
Jerald V. Halvorsen
President, Interstate Natural Gas Association of America
Marketers are not a threat to gas distribution companies. They share, in fact, an important synergy. Marketers provide LDCs and retail customers with choices for supply purchases and offer efficient services to help manage supply and arrange for transportation. However, distributors and marketers do operate on different footings, and perhaps the regulatory scheme needs a second look.
Many industry participants, including INGAA, have questioned whether the current rules setting price caps for secondary capacity and prohibiting direct assignment of capacity by LDCs and other capacity holders are now necessary for the second market. The FERC is currently reviewing these very policies on capacity release and trading on the interstate system. The state commissions can address service obligation issues on a case-by-case basis, if need be.
Glenn R. Jennings
President & CEO
Delta Natural Gas Co., Inc.
If LDCs expect to continue to provide sales service to all their customers without any competition, marketers and brokers might pose a threat. LDCs can be hindered by traditional regulation in competing with marketers and brokers. Historically, LDCs calculated their sales prices (tariffs) including their weighted average cost of gas and could not easily vary their sales prices. Changes in regulation to allow more pricing flexibility could help LDCs compete since marketers and brokers are not so hindered.
We view marketers and brokers as customers and work with them in any ways possible. We began transporting gas in the early 1980s to meet

Filty bed, the smell is horrible, stuff complaining I got back to the hotel after midnight
The location was perfect, close to the metro station and to Rue Oberkampf.
The room was very small and extremely noisy. During night I heard other guests snoring.
The little bugs crawling on sink and little table and floor.
Great location to base yourself (next to the metro, 15 minute walk to Le Marais, or up to Belleville), nice staff, great bars within the same block. Room was big enough (but we were only there to sleep) and beds were comfortable.
A slight ant problem in the room. Shower curtain was a bit dirty.
Receptionist was very nice guy,very helpful and very friendly. Hotel was nice and very clean. Cleaner staff excellent job , Very quite and peaceful hotel , Excellent location near with Metro 2 min way by walk ,very handy Hot water at any time, Access WIFI We left the room at 11 am ,Out flight was at 22:30 pm and we were aloud from the receptionist to leave the languages til 6 pm at the hotel which was very good and helpful for us. We appreciate his help. Everything was perfect in this hotel and I will recommend this hotel to anyone who wants nice holidays in Paris.
No hair dryer No tea/coffee making facilities
Staff was friendly and accommodating. next to metro station. Rooms were clean.
The rooms were small,shower and toilet was tight. The room was hot and the noise from the outside was unbearable at times.
There was makeup on the sheets, and black hair all over the room and bathroom. The bathroom hair was also accompanied by ants.
Room was wide enough for family and bathroom as well. Very close to few metro stations.
Location, clean, staf friendly
Nice clean hotel. Room was small but good value
no fan no safe
Friendly staff, good amenities, clean and great location.
Noisy by the lift/entrance door so not a great sleep.
except the lady at the reception, a very nice gal, the rest is...
10 square meters for a "room" and bath. better be a midget. not very clean, and when i opened my window room 18, a view on garbages. this hotel is totally overpriced!
Convenient and nearby having a Italian restaurant. Delicious
Noisy and bed to soft
Good value for money, close to good public transportation and points of interest.

I worked at ITT Technical Institute full-time (more than an year)
Organized, good campus-level support staff; Excellent chairs and faculty. Decent salary. Assisting students to find their career aspirations is what motivated to get to work every day.
It's all about the numbers to the company. My previous supervisor was Jekyll and Hyde; one day way up, the next way down, and because she was too often "way down", her words and deeds ultimately drove me from this company. If she was a reflection of ITT - and by her actions and her overt brown-nosing, I'd say she was - then I'd exercise caution when seeking work here. I'll repeat: It's all about the numbers.
Hire more mentally-stable supervisors who can tactfully and artfully articulate responsibilities, and will cultivate and nurture a career aspiration, rather then treat you, ultimately, like chattel.

A reduction in budget resulted in hundreds of full-time faculty and staff being work force reduced.Advice to ManagementAdvice
Using manufacturing method parameters to operate an educational institution does not seem to be effective. Perhaps the techniques used by current management are in need of change. If the reduction had been done at the top, many jobs would have been saved. Top management has driven the stock price down from $110 to $15. By that measure I should have lost my job.

My boss is great--best manager everCons
Generally, employees talk about leaving as "getting out" as if you are in prison; this very negative attitude occurs with most every long-term employee and is likely based on the lack of "listening" from upper management. Please see suggestions.Advice to ManagementAdvice
Please spend money on feedback mechanisms for staff and faculty to actually implement/credit employees for their suggestions. Implement funds for minor programs toward employee satisfaction (on-site gym or cafe, couches or carpet in the break room, HEAT in the building)--no cop-outs for the single meal per year, opportunities for more to work from home. If money is invested in staff, overall training costs for employee turnover will decrease to a balancing point. Employees feel trapped in positions--there is little internal hiring for promotions. They are ill-rewarded for their hard work/salaried overtime, with more expected of less staff all of the time. There is no advance preparation to increase staffing when the company desires more students, they simply hire more admissions representatives without worrying about increasing the capability to maintain the status of current students. Please take these suggestions to heart, as I have thought them through thoroughly and would like to improve this workplace.Doesn't RecommendNeutral OutlookDisapproves of CEO
