22. The device according to
A typical structure of an organic electroluminescent device consists of an anode (e.g. indium-tin-oxide (ITO)), a hole injection layer (e.g. PEDOT:PSS or polyaniline), a hole transport layer (e.g. an amine-based organic material), an electroluminescent layer, and a cathode layer (e.g. barium covered with aluminum). The function of the hole injection layer is to provide efficient hole injection into subsequent layers. In addition, hole injection layer also acts as a buffer layer to smooth the surface of the anode and to provide a better adhesion for the subsequent layer. The function of the hole transport interlayer is to transport holes, injected from the hole injection layer, to the electroluminescent layer, where recombination with electrons will occur and light will be emitted. This layer usually consists of a high hole mobility organic material, such as TPD, NPD, amine-based starburst compounds, amine-based spiro-compounds and so on. Another function of the hole transporting interlayer is to move the recombination zone away from the interface with the hole injection layer. The function of the electroluminescent layer is to transport both types of carriers and to efficiently produce light of desirable wavelength from electron-hole pair (exciton) recombination. The function of the electron injection layer is to efficiently inject electrons into the electroluminescent layer.
Conjugated polymers or small-molecules are of increasing interest as materials for electroluminescent layers of OLED devices, offering the potential for low fabrication cost, easy processing and flexibility. One of the limitations for the wide-scale commercialization of such OLED devices is that they have relatively poor lifetime and air stability properties. Many factors are responsible for limited operational lifetime of such devices, some of which, but not all, include degradation of injecting electrodes, degradation of light-emitting properties of the emitting material, deterioration of charge transporting properties of materials, that constitute a devices, and many others. Furthermore organic compounds tend to be unstable in air. Strong trapping caused by molecular oxygen impurities degrades electron transport properties, quenches emission, and thus limit the stability of the device in the presence of air.
One of the approaches to increase operational life-time of organic electroluminescent devices concentrates on the device architecture, i.e. modifying device structure to include additional functional layers, such as an electron blocking layer, hole transporting layer, an electron transporting, and so on. This approach also includes changing layers' thicknesses to optimize the lifetime. (See U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/869,147, bearing attorney docket number 2004P04185US01, entitled �Thick Light Emitting Polymers to Enhance OLED Efficiency and Lifetime� filed on Jun. 15, 2004). Another approach is to design material(s) that will be stable under given operational conditions in a given device architecture. For example, an approach to improve lifetime of organic electroluminescent devices is proposed, whereby a small amount of carbon nanostructures is added to the electroluminescent material (see U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/992,037, bearing attorney docket number 2004P19347US, entitled �Organic Electroluminescent Device with Prolonged Operational Lifetime� filed on Nov. 17, 2004). Air stability of the selected materials is also of crucial importance to maintain stable operation in presence of air. Even after encapsulation environmental factors like moisture and oxygen can affect device stability.
In at least one embodiment of the invention, an OLED device is disclosed in which a high electron affinity additive, namely siloles, or silacyclopentadienes, or derivatives of either of these, is added to an electroluminescent material to form the emissive layer of the device. In at least one embodiment of the invention, high electron affinity additive can also be added to other layers of the device, even if their function does not include light emission.
Siloles or silacyclopentadienes or their derivatives have been proposed as a new class of electron transporting material. A silole is a silicon-substituted cyclopentadiene with strong electron accepting properties. The high electron affinity (low LUMO (Lowest Unoccupied Molecular Orbital) level) of these materials is attributed to the σ*-n* conjugation between the σ* orbital of the two exocyclic Si-C σbonds and the n* orbital of the butadiene moiety on the silicon ring. A chemical structure of a representative silole derivative named PyPySPyPy is shown in
The high electron affinity and high aromaticity of their anionic species are two unique electronic properties of the silole derivatives that lead to a trap-free electron transport in solid amorphous films. Furthermore silole derivatives are very stable in air unlike most organic semiconductors which are unable to maintain electron mobility in presence of air. A large solid state electron affinity is crucial for the formation of stable anions in an organic solid and for reduction of trapping effects caused by oxygen.
Typical concentrations of the abovementioned additive when used in fabricating the electroluminescent layer are in the range 0-10 weight percent, if the additive itself acts as a strong luminescence quencher and higher concentrations would lead to undesirable reduction in overall device electroluminescence efficiency. But the additive concentration can be increased if emissive additives such as emissive siloles, emissive silole derivatives, emissive silacyclopentadienes, or emissive silacyclopentadiene derivatives are used.
When siloles, or silacyclopentadienes, or derivatives of either of these are added into non-emitting functional layers of the devices, higher concentrations of additives can be used, in the range 0-50 wt %, as no detrimental effect on device efficiency is expected in this case. The advantages of the invention over similar approaches, e.g. when using fullerenes, are the air stability and also the possibility of using emissive additives. The difference here is that we use high electron affinity siloles, or silacyclopentadienes, or derivatives of either of these which are air stable and can act not only as a luminescence quencher but also as an emissive component itself. The siloles, or silacyclopentadienes, or derivatives of either of these can be blended directly with any electroluminescent polymer, or small molecule, either fluorescent or phosphorescent.
Incorporation of high electron affinity additives into the functional (emissive and non-emissive) layers can be done in a variety of ways that include one or more of: 1) blending additives with the functional organic material; 2) chemically attaching or cross-linking additives to the functional organic material, e.g. as a part of the chain in the copolymer structure or as a pendant group; and/or 3) co-evaporation of additives with the functional organic small molecule materials.
The use of high electron affinity additives, in accordance with the invention, is not limited to any particular type of organic materials and can be used with the fluorescent and phosphorescent conjugated polymers, or with the fluorescent and phosphorescent small molecule materials. Examples of small molecule materials include triphenyldiamine (TPD), α-napthylphenyl-biphenyl (NPB), tris(8-hydroxyquinolate)aluminum(Alq3), tris(2-phenylpyridine)iridium(Ir(ppy)3), and so on, examples of polymers include poly(p-phenylene vinylene) (PPV) and derivatives, polyfluorenes and their derivatives, polyfluorene homopolymer and copolymers, spiro-based polymers and so on.
One or more organic materials are deposited to form one or more organic layers of an organic stack 416. The organic stack 416 is on the first electrode 411. The organic stack 416 includes a hole injection/anode buffer layer (�HIL/ABL�) 417 and emissive layer (EML) 420. If the first electrode 411 is an anode, then the HIL/ABL 417 is on the first electrode 411. Alternatively, if the first electrode 411 is a cathode, then the active electronic layer 420 is on the first electrode 411, and the HIL/ABL 417 is on the EML 420. The OLED device 405 also includes a second electrode 423 on the organic stack 416. In accordance with at least one embodiment of the invention, high electron affinity additives can be used in one or more layers of the organic stack, particularly in the EML 420. Examples of these additives include siloles, or silacyclopentadienes, or derivatives of either of these and the like. Other layers than that shown in
Substrate 408:
The substrate 408 can be any material that can support the organic and metallic layers on it. The substrate 408 can be transparent or opaque (e.g., the opaque substrate is used in top-emitting devices). By modifying or filtering the wavelength of light which can pass through the substrate 408, the color of light emitted by the device can be changed. The substrate 408 can be comprised of glass, quartz, silicon, plastic, or stainless steel; preferably, the substrate 408 is comprised of thin, flexible glass. The preferred thickness of the substrate 408 depends on the material used and on the application of the device. The substrate 408 can be in the form of a sheet or continuous film. The continuous film can be used, for example, for roll-to-roll manufacturing processes which are particularly suited for plastic, metal, and metallized plastic foils. The substrate can also have transistors or other switching elements built in to control the operation of an active-matrix OLED device. A single substrate 408 is typically used to construct a larger display containing many pixels (EL devices) such as EL device 405 repetitively fabricated and arranged in some specific pattern.
First Electrode 411:
In one configuration, the first electrode 411 functions as an anode (the anode is a conductive layer which serves as a hole-injecting layer and which comprises a material with work function typically greater than about 4.5 eV). Typical anode materials include metals (such as platinum, gold, palladium, and the like); metal oxides (such as lead oxide, tin oxide, ITO (Indium Tin Oxide), and the like); graphite; doped inorganic semiconductors (such as silicon, germanium, gallium arsenide, and the like); and doped conducting polymers (such as polyaniline, polypyrrole, polythiophene, and the like).
The first electrode 411 can be transparent, semi-transparent, or opaque to the wavelength of light generated within the device. The thickness of the first electrode 411 can be from about 10 nm to about 1000 nm, preferably, from about 50 nm to about 200 nm, and more preferably, is about 100 nm. The first electrode layer 411 can typically be fabricated using any of the techniques known in the art for deposition of thin films, including, for example, vacuum evaporation, sputtering, electron beam deposition, or chemical vapor deposition.
In an alternative configuration, the first electrode layer 411 functions as a cathode (the cathode is a conductive layer which serves as an electron-injecting layer and which comprises a material with a low work function). The cathode, rather than the anode, is deposited on the substrate 408 in the case of, for example, a top-emitting OLED. Typical cathode materials are listed below in the section for the �second electrode 423�.
The HIL/ABL 417 has good hole conducting properties and is used to effectively inject holes from the first electrode 411 to the EML 420 (via the HT interlayer 418, see below). The HIL/ABL 417 is made of polymers or small molecule materials. For example, the HIL/ABL 417 can be made of tertiary amine or carbazole derivatives both in their small molecule or their polymer form, conducting polyaniline (�PANI�), or PEDOT:PSS (a solution of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (�PEDOT�) and polystyrenesulfonic acid (�PSS�) available as Baytron P from HC Starck). The HIL/ABL 417 can have a thickness from about 5 nm to about 1000 nm, and is conventionally used from about 50 to about 250 nm.
Other examples of the HIL/ABL 417 include any small molecule materials and the like such as plasma polymerized fluorocarbon films (CFx) with preferred thicknesses between 0.3 and 3 nm, copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) films with preferred thicknesses between 10 and 50 nm.
The HIL/ABL 417 can be formed using selective deposition techniques or nonselective deposition techniques. Examples of selective deposition techniques include, for example, ink jet printing, flex printing, and screen printing. Examples of nonselective deposition techniques include, for example, spin coating, dip coating, web coating, and spray coating. A hole transporting and/or buffer material is deposited on the first electrode 411 and then allowed to dry into a film. The dried film represents the HIL/ABL 417. Other deposition methods for the HIL/ABL 417 include plasma polymerization (for CFx layers), vacuum deposition, or vapour phase deposition (e.g. for films of CuPc).
For organic LEDs (OLEDs) as the EL device 405, the EML 420 contains at least one organic material that emits light. These organic light emitting materials generally fall into two categories. The first category of OLEDs, referred to as polymeric light emitting diodes, or PLEDs, utilize polymers as part of EML 420. The polymers may be organic or organo-metallic in nature. As used herein, the term organic also includes organo-metallic materials. Light-emission in these materials may be generated as a result of fluorescence or phosphorescence.
Preferably, these polymers are solvated in an organic solvent, such as toluene or xylene, and spun (spin-coated) onto the device, although other deposition methods are possible too. Devices utilizing polymeric active electronic materials in EML 420 are especially preferred.
The light emitting organic polymers in the EML 420 can be, for example, EL polymers having a conjugated repeating unit, in particular EL polymers in which neighboring repeating units are bonded in a conjugated manner, such as polythiophenes, polyphenylenes, polythiophenevinylenes, or poly-p-phenylenevinylenes or their families, copolymers, derivatives, or mixtures thereof. More specifically, organic polymers can be, for example: polyfluorenes; poly-p-phenylenevinylenes that emit white, red, blue, yellow, or green light and are 2-, or 2, 5�substituted poly-p-pheneylenevinylenes; polyspiro polymers.
In addition to polymers, smaller organic molecules that emit by fluorescence or by phosphorescence can serve as a light emitting material residing in EML 420. Unlike polymeric materials that are applied as solutions or suspensions, small-molecule light emitting materials are preferably deposited through evaporative, sublimation, or organic vapor phase deposition methods. There are also small molecule materials that can be applied by solution methods too. Combinations of PLED materials and smaller organic molecules can also serve as active electronic layer. For example, a PLED may be chemically derivatized with a small organic molecule or simply mixed with a small organic molecule to form EML 420. Examples of electroluminescent small molecule materials include tris(8-hydroxyquinolate) aluminum (Alq3), anthracene, rubrene, tris(2-phenylpyridine)iridium(Ir(ppy)3), triazine, any metal-chelate compounds and derivatives of any of these materials.
In addition to active electronic materials that emit light, EML 420 can include a material capable of charge transport. Charge transport materials include polymers or small molecules that can transport charge carriers. For example, organic materials such as polythiophene, derivatized polythiophene, oligomeric polythiophene, derivatized oligomeric polythiophene, pentacene, triphenylamine, and triphenyldiamine. EML 420 may also include semiconductors, such as silicon, gallium arsenide, cadmium selenide, or cadmium sulfide.
In accordance with at least one embodiment of the invention, high electron affinity additives are used in addition to the typical electroluminescent materials described above in fabricating the EML 420. Examples of such additives include siloles, silacyclopentadienes, silole derivatives, or silacyclopentadiene derivatives. A silole is a silicon-substituted cyclopentadiene with strong electron accepting properties. The high electron affinity (low LUMO (Lowest Unoccupied Molecular Orbital) level) is attributed to the σ*-n* conjugation between the σ* orbital of the two exocyclic Si-C σ bonds and the n* orbital of the butadience moiety on the silicon ring. The chemical structure of a representative silole derivative named PyPySPyPy is shown in
Typical concentrations of the abovementioned additive when used in fabricating the electroluminescent layer are in the range 0 to 10 weight percent, if the additive itself acts as a strong luminescence quencher and higher concentrations would lead to undesirable reduction in overall device electroluminescent efficiency. But the additive concentration can be increased if emissive additives such as emissive siloles, emissive silacyclopentadiene, or emissive derivatives of either are used. In such case, the concentration of high electron affinity additives in the EML can be 0 to up to 50 weight percent.
All of the organic layers such as HIL/ABL 417 and EML 420 can be ink-jet printed by depositing an organic solution or by spin-coating, or other deposition techniques. This organic solution may be any �fluid� or deformable mass capable of flowing under pressure and may include solutions, inks, pastes, emulsions, dispersions and so on. The liquid may also contain or be supplemented by further substances which affect the viscosity, contact angle, thickening, affinity, drying, dilution and so on of the deposited drops.
Further, any or all of the layers 417, 418 and 420 may be cross-linked or otherwise physically or chemically hardened as desired for stability and maintenance of certain surface properties desirable for deposition of subsequent layers.
Alternatively, if small molecule materials are used instead of polymers, the HIL/ABL 417, the HT interlayer 418, the EML 420 can be deposited through evaporation, sublimation, organic vapor phase deposition, or in combination with other deposition techniques.
Second Electrode (423)
In one embodiment, second electrode 423 functions as a cathode when an electric potential is applied across the first electrode 411 and the second electrode 423. In this embodiment, when an electric potential is applied across the first electrode 411, which serves as the anode, and second electrode 423, which serves as the cathode, photons are released from active electronic layer 420 and pass through first electrode 411 and substrate 408.
While many materials, which can function as a cathode, are known to those of skill in the art, most preferably a composition that includes aluminum, indium, silver, gold, magnesium, calcium, lithium fluoride, cesium fluoride, sodium fluoride, and barium, or combinations thereof, or alloys thereof, is utilized. Aluminum, aluminum alloys, and combinations of magnesium and silver or their alloys can also be utilized. In some embodiments of the invention, a second electrode 423 is fabricated by thermally evaporating in a three layer or combined fashion lithium fluoride, calcium and aluminum in various amounts.
Preferably, the total thickness of second electrode 423 is from about 10 to about 1000 nanometers (nm), more preferably from about 50 to about 500 nm, and most preferably from about 100 to about 300 nm. While many methods are known to those of ordinary skill in the art by which the first electrode material may be deposited, vacuum deposition methods, such as physical vapor deposition (PVD) are preferred.
Often other processes such as washing and neutralization of films, addition of masks and photo-resists may precede cathode deposition. However, these are not specifically enumerated as they do not relate specifically to the novel aspects of the invention. Other fabrication processes like adding metal lines to connect the anode lines to power sources may also be desirable. Other layers (not shown) such as a barrier layer and/or getter layer and/or other encapsulation scheme may also be used to protect the electronic device. Such other processing steps and layers are well-known in the art and are not specifically discussed herein.
HT Interlayer 418:
The functions of the HT interlayer 418 are among the following: to assist injection of holes into the EML 420, reduce exciton quenching at the anode, provide better hole transport than electron transport, and block electrons from getting into the HIL/ABL 417 and degrading it. Some materials may have one or two of the desired properties listed, but the effectiveness of the material as an interlayer is believed to improve with the number of these properties exhibited. Through careful selection of the hole transporting material, an efficient interlayer material can be found. Examples of criteria that can be used are as follows: a criterion that can be used to find materials that can help injection of holes into the EML 420 is that the HOMO (Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital) levels of the material bridge the energy barrier between the anode and the EML 420, that is the HOMO level of the HT interlayer 418 should be in between the HOMO levels of the anode and the EML 420. Charge carrier mobilities of the materials can be used as a criterion to distinguish materials that will have better hole transport than electron transport. Also, materials that have higher LUMO (Lowest Unoccupied Molecular Orbital) levels than the LUMO of the EML 420 will present a barrier to electron injection from the EML 420 into the HT interlayer 418, and thus act as an electron blocker. The HT interlayer 418 is fabricated from a hole transporting material that may consist at least partially of or may derive from one or more following compounds, their derivatives, moieties, etc: polyfluorene derivatives, poly(2,7-(9,9-di-n-octylfluorene)-(1,4-phenylene-((4-secbutylphenyl)imino)-1,4-phenylene) and derivatives which include cross-linkable forms, non-emitting forms of poly(p-phenylenevinylene), triarylamine type material (e.g. triphenyldiamine (TPD), α-napthylphenyl-biphenyl (NPB)), thiopene, oxetane-functionalized polymers and small molecules etc. In some embodiments of the invention, the HT interlayer 418 is fabricated using a cross-linkable hole transporting polymer.
In accordance with at least one embodiment of the invention, high electron affinity additives can also be incorporated into HT (hole transporting) interlayer 418. Examples of such additives include siloles, silacyclopentadiene, or derivatives of either of these. The electron affinity of the additives should be preferably higher than the electron affinity of the electroluminescent materials used in EML 420. These additives are discussed in greater detail above.
The HT interlayer 418 can be ink-jet printed by depositing an organic solution, by spin-coating, by vacuum deposition, by vapor phase deposition, or other deposition techniques whether selective or non-selective. Further, if required, the HT interlayer 418 may be cross-linked or otherwise physically or chemically hardened as desired for stability and maintenance of certain surface properties desirable for deposition of subsequent layers.
In alternate other embodiments of the invention, not specifically depicted, the HT interlayer 418 can be the only layer in the organic stack that has high electron affinity additives such as siloles, silacyclopentadienes, and derivatives of either of these, added thereto. In such embodiments, the emissive layer would comprise at least an electroluminescent material, but not any high electron affinity additives.
As any person of ordinary skill in the art of electronic device fabrication will recognize from the description, figures, and examples that modifications and changes can be made to the embodiments of the invention without departing from the scope of the invention defined by the following claims.

Martha Wainwright: Martha Wainwright
Martha Wainwright: Martha Wainwright
|Release Date:
The first 10 seconds of Martha Wainwrights full-length debut opening track, Far Away, feature nothing but her tremulous voice, which combines the delicacy of Tanya Donelly, the phrasing of Kim Carnes, and the world-weariness of Marianne Faithfull. By the end of the track, Wainwright has used the repetition found in the lines And the birds they sing and they sing and they sing/ And the dogs they bark and they bark and they bark and they bark to lose herself in the delirium of her own song. And with that, Martha Wainwright renders the singers family tree irrelevant (yes, father Loudon, brother Rufus, too).
Theres nothing tentative about the albummaybe some missteps (the ill-fitting art-rock sweep and lyrical venom of Ball and Chain, the mundane Oprah references in TV Show), but they arise out of boldness, not uncertainty. Wainwright hits her mark more often than not, and her brooding Daniel Lanois-style production provides a perfect backdrop for songs ranging from the folky pop of Factory and When the Day Is Short to the stripped-bare century-old Vaughan Williams/Robert Louis Stevenson hymn Whither Must I Wander to the gorgeous, melancholy Dont Forget. Fall it cools, winter it snows/ Spring it rains, summer comes/ And you go, she sings, and her voice matches the words hurt for hurt.

Defender bike light resists theft and water, looks dangerous
People who commute by bicycle don't have to remove their pedals, racks or fenders when they park in public ... so why should their lights be any different? Well, because most battery-operated bike lights come off with the simple flick of a quick-release, or the turning of a single bolt. Massachusetts-based Gotham Bicycle Defense Industries, however, is attempting to address that problem with its Defender bike light. Not only is it theft-resistant, but it's also waterproof, and it looks like the light Dirty Harry would use - if he rode a bike. Read More
One of the greatest threats to our personal welfare in the digital age is the theft of our key life-enhancing devices – while a stolen bag, camera, or wallet can be replaced at significant heartache and expense, a laptop might contain the keys to your banks accounts, employer's intranet, or your identity. Now there's an ingenious anti-theft device which sets a user-defined protection radius of between one and 30 meters around the mobile phone in your pocket using Bluetooth functionality. The credit-card-sized, EUR60 Secu4 Blue Watchdog is so useful it just might generate killer app adoption levels for protecting your valuables, luggage, and perhaps even your children when you're on the go. Check out our video of the new product. Read More
Volvo Trucks tackling the problem of roadside pirates
Being a long-haul truck driver is by no means the safest job in the world, but it could be a lot more dangerous than most of us think. Figures released by the commercial drivers' International Road Transport Union, the IRU, show that 17 percent of Europe's long-haul truck drivers are victims of robbery during work-hours at some time over a five-year period. And thefts from long-haul trucks total in the region of EUR€8.2 billion (US$12 billion approx.) – every year. New initiatives by Volvo Trucks and the EU are being undertaken to improve driver safety and prevent these thefts. One particular anti-theft device in development is a lockable fifth wheel that can be remotely controlled, thus preventing the trailer from being separated from the truck and disappearing. Read More
Lenovo ThinkPad gets anti-theft Remote Disable feature
Lenovo is introducing a new security feature for ThinkPad notebooks which allows users to remotely disable their PC via SMS. Developed in conjunction with Phoenix Technologies, the Constant Secure Remote Disable feature is effectively a kill switch that works by creating a mobile phone text command such as "lockdown now PC" or "PC shut off" and sending it to the computer's onboard broadband service. If the PC is turned off when the command is sent, it's automatically disabled the next time it registers on the network. Read More

Cable Lock Attachment protects against keyboard and mouse theft
August 8, 2007 The loss of a keyboard, mouse or any other cable-attached PC device due to theft could be a considerable inconvenience. Not only is there the cost of replacing the item, but when on the road they may not always be easy to replace. That's where the Targus Cable Lock keyboard and mouse attachment comes in – the small (9 x 4.5 x 3cm) unobtrusive security device is designed to protect cable-attached items and ensure that your PC is stays fully functional.

July 31, 2007 Motorcycles offer a boundless sense of freedom to their owners – and they're also seen as boundlessly free by bike thieves who know it only takes two men to lift a parked bike into a van and nick-off with it. But a bike that can always be traced back to its original owner is difficult for thieves to make a dollar from and Yamaha is taking advantage of this fact on behalf of its customers. Since February this year, every new Yamaha motorcycle, scooter and ATV sold in Australia has been sprayed with DataDotDNA theft protection – microscopic dots that carry identifying information linking every part on the bike back to its original frame number and making stolen bikes extremely difficult to on-sell or part out. DataDotDNA are doing these sorts of deals across the world with a number of different manufacturers now, and becoming a worldwide standard in vehicle identification. Read More
DaySafe 100: the anti-theft laptop backpack
June 2, 2007 The petty criminal's work is based on minimal risk for maximal reward - snatching an unwatched handbag, slashing a backpack and collecting the spoils as they fall, sizing up which tourist is carrying a laptop or camera they can easily make off with. Simple measures to make life more difficult for thieves can act as an excellent deterrent, and this is where PacSafe has carved its market niche. Starting out with a slashproof metal net to protect backpackers' gear on the road, PacSafe has extended its line to include quick and practical secure carrybags for a range of urban and travel situations. With the latest anti-theft laptop backpack in tow, Gizmag's Loz Blain reports. Read More
New SecurePack computer backpack with anti-theft features
August 9, 2006 Now here's a good idea for people who use backpacks and travel on public transport where exposed zippers and pockets pushed in the faces of potential thieves could result in the loss of valuable electronic gear or potentially even more valuable data. The SecurePack has no exposed zippers or exterior pockets which prevents access to the interior of the pack while it is being worn. This unique design ensures that would-be thieves cannot steal anything from the pack, even when maneuvering through crowded streets, subways, airports, or other vulnerable situations. Read More
September 13, 2005 If you've never thought of your laptop computer as a way to distinguish yourself, your company or organization from another, this article might help.

More than 15 million laptops were sold in the U.S. each year, with laptop theft running at half a million units. Most countries mirror high laptop sales and extraordinary theft rates – by turning your computer into an ambassador for your company, you also create a significant theft deterrent. Read More

Apparently many of our U.S. mayors think so. Recently in Orlando, the U.S. Conference of Mayors voted to unanimously endorse parent "trigger laws," giving parents the legal right to band together and force change in failing public schools. The idea is that if 51 percent of parents who have kids enrolled in a failing school sign a petition to "trigger" change, demands can be made to fire the school's administrators, fire teachers, dismiss the school board, and even close the school entirely and re-open it as a private charter school. Parent trigger laws are currently in place in several states including California, Texas and Louisiana and are under consideration in Michigan, Pennsylvania and New York.
But do these laws make a difference?
At this point we just don't know. There have only been two instances so far of parents initiating school reform through the "trigger law" in California (in Adelanto and in Compton), and in both instances, the efforts of the parent reformers were halted due to technicalities with the manner in which the signatures were obtained and recorded. So we cannot yet point to any actual example of success of a school being turned around due to the trigger being implemented.
But let's take a step back -- are parent trigger laws even a good idea?
In my opinion parents need to be heard on what the issues are in their kids schools … but they are not necessarily the right group to solve the problem.
Parents can be great sources of feedback as to what is not working in a low-performing school and what might be some of the reasons the school is failing. And perhaps one of the biggest reasons we need to have a parent trigger law is to ensure that this important source of feedback is not ignored.
But to put the burden of organization and implementation of the necessary changes on a group of parents is unrealistic. In both of the California cases mentioned above, a non-profit parents-rights advocacy group called Parent Revolution was the driving force behind the efforts to gather those signatures and initiate the change. Without the help of this outside group, the 51 percent majority needed would have been very difficult to achieve. If the trigger group actually reached the point of deciding upon needed changes, Parent Revolution would likely have acted in an advisory role to guide the decision making for their school.
And the jury still seems to be out on whether or not charter schools outperform public schools. The Center for Research on Education Outcomes at Stanford University found in a 2009 report that 17 percent of charter schools outperformed their public school equivalents, while 37 percent of charter schools performed worse than regular local schools, and the rest were about the same. Measuring the effects of charter schools on kids performance should certainly extend beyond just standardized testing results, but it would be wrong for us to conclude that turning a failing public school into a private charter school is the "magic answer".
Here's what I do know. Parents need to have a voice in the public school education of their children. And where the system is failing students -- due to a poorly managed school, due to tenured teachers who long ago should have left the profession or due to school boards who are in denial of why student performance is so low -- changes must occur. Parents should very much be involved in triggering that change, but managing the evolution and improvement in itself? That effort should be led by more brilliant capable educators such as Geoffrey Canada, who established the Harlem Children's Zone in 1990 and has successfully focused on increasing high school and college graduation rates for students in Harlem.

Tolkien's classic fantasy trilogy, The Lord of the Rings, is brought to the screen. An evil sorcerer from a previous era created a magical ring which enables its users to call upon its tremendous powers to rule the world, but it inevitably warps them to evil. It was believed lost, but during a resurgence of magical evil in the world, Bilbo, a simple, plain-spoken hobbit, recovers it from its hiding place. The forces of good give his nephew Frodo the choice to bear the awful burden of the ring to a place where it may be destroyed.

Duggar Family Putting Youngest Child at Risk With Three-Week TLC Shoot?by Free Britney at . Comments
TLC continually changes the name of its show 19 Kids and Counting to reflect the increasing number of Duggar offspring. Jim Bob and Michelle? Fertile.
But it reportedly nearly declined by one.
The youngest child of the 21-member Arkansas family has reportedly suffered some serious medical problems while shooting overseas in Israel.
Little Josie-Brooklyn Duggar was born prematurely and is prone to illness, but sources say the demands of their TLC schedule put her more at risk:
"Josie has had serious breathing issues since her premature birth. While the Duggars are a loving family who adore their children, they are definitely risking little Josie's life by traveling all over the world," says an insider.
"It seems like they are putting the show before their child's health. Jim Bob and Michelle need to put their children before media attention and money."
Definitely out of character for the evangelical Christian family, who - no matter what you think of their lifestyle - live debt free and relatively simply.
Although, as Jon Gosselin can attest, money and fame change people.
Should Jim Bob and Michelle try for baby Duggar #20?
Hello hey hi um.. I'd like 2 express my opinion, ..Id like 2 know which one of y'all has the manual 2 raising the perfect child? Cause I know as a mother, that book doesn't exsist! We just try 2 do the best we can with what we have. I do know I have a lot of questions 4 the duggars, regarding how they make it work cause I know how much time, money, love, patience, ect.. it takes 2 be a parent. But I think y'all r being 2 harsh & I like them they seem very nice. They are living the way God say fit just like every 1 of us should be. & he who lives in a glass house should not throw the 1st stone!!!
Come on. My parents had 2 kids. My brother and I didn't get "special attention" because there was only 2 of us. My fam is HUGE. My brother and I have 32 1st cousins. We all got together twice a week. None of us felt neglected at all. In fact, all of us got SO much attention....pick on the poor families that only had 3 to 5 people in it. That's NOT a family!!!!
I watched the show for about 5 minutes and felt it was a waste of time. I don't like the show at all. STOP HELPING THEM EXPLOIT THEIR CHILDERN BY NOT WATCHING THE SHOW.
statistically speaking, several of their kids have a probability of being gay. will they have a show on Logo then, or be on andy cohen's "watch what happens live"?
I have to wonder .... how much personal time does each child get with mom and/or dad? ... shouldn't that matter? And how do these parents have time to do a TV show? And why keep your children from the world in which they will someday have to make their way? And, while they are supporting their children financially (I assume), do these parents ever question the stress such a large family puts upon the Earth? how much water will they all drink, how much food will they consume, how much waste will they produce? I certainly do not hate these parents, but I absolutely question their ability to be good parents and their true motivation for such unbridled procreation.
Religion is meant to set your mind at ease about life and teach you to treat people with kindness and even religious people make unwise decisions. The duggar mom should think of her last child bearing experience before she decides to risk another and leave all those children MOTHERLESS! Religion or not God does not promote being plain stupid.
Roddy, seriously. "Yea if the Duggars were a more main stream family they would be most definitely investigated by DHS." The Mormon guy on "Sister Wives" was busted for polygamy. That's because cops actually watch tv too. What does this have to do with Christianity? The Duggars are completely innocent of crimes, you are judging THEM! Don't tell people not to judge when that's all you're doing. So what if they forbid their kids from dating and listening to garbage music. That's called responsible parenting, that is not child abuse. Forcing parents to make their kids date and have premarital sex is abuse of our freedoms. I guess that's what you want, you want to prevent people from raising children with morals and values. These people are not hurting anyone. Get off your paranoid high horse.
Yea if the Duggars were a more main stream family they would be most definitely investigated by DHS. The Duggars paint a happy picture of Quiverfull life and they are on media outlet they forbid their kids to watch. They forbid them to date, listen to music, or dance. I can not see the difference in picking up s strange person at a bar and marrying a strange person your parent force you to through courtship. It seems women are not women these days unless they got kids. If 'James' would Google what I tell him he and other fans would come back with a different view. I wonder if he has ever seen the show. Many extreme Christians turn their noses up a anyone who is different when the Bible says judge not..
Liz is bitter because her two kids are douchebags, and she can't have anymore kids because she is a fat lardass so her boyfriend hasn't touched her in 4 years.
WFT? I can't stand people who do this. Geez, give it a rest. Aren't you reaching menopause?

Baghdatis beats Malisse to reach Washington final
Still, it appeared Baghdatis might be the one in trouble. Facing a break point while already trailing 4-3 in the second set, Baghdatis turned his ankle when he tried to change directions for a ball that wound up landing out.
A doctor and trainer came on court, and Baghdatis eventually rose and limped to the sideline, where he took a medical timeout. When action resumed after a five-minute delay, the score was deuce, and Baghdatis held to 4-all by taking the next two points on miscues by Malisse. Instead of testing Baghdatis' ankle by attempting a drop shot, say, Malisse was content to settle in for long rallies from the baseline. The first was a 22-stroke exchange that ended with Malisse sailing a forehand long. The second lasted 12 strokes, capped by Malisse pushing a forehand wide.
"You always think, 'Well, is he OK? Is he going to stop?' But ... I hit a backhand down the line, and he ran to it, so I thought, 'He will be fine,'" said Malisse, a Wimbledon semifinalist in 2002, when he reached the top 20.
His ranking dropped below 350th, though, as recently as 2008, when he had a right wrist injury, and he is currently 62nd.
Malisse plays more of a high-risk game than Baghdatis, and that strategy didn't pay off Saturday.
"He's always there," Malisse said, "and he makes you hit that one extra shot."
After dropping the opening point of the tiebreaker, Baghdatis responded with a pair of aces at 118 and 124 mph en route to a 6-1 lead. After wasting three match points, Baghdatis converted the fourth when Malisse closed a 26-stroke point by putting a running backhand into the net.
Baghdatis again dropped to the court, this time because of joy, not pain.
