1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates generally to solid state scanning devices and more particularly to a system of detecting and analyzing the color of light falling on a solid state imaging device or scanner.
2. Description of the Prior Art
Solid state imaging arrays are well known to the art. U.S. Pat. No. 3,721,839 describes a typical solid state imaging array. The array, described in this patent, employes junction FET's as the photoelements. Each of these JFET's is biased so that under illumination it is conductive. The use of such JFET's achieve a higher signal to noise ratio than prior art vidicons.
The present invention, however, describes an improved solid state imaging array for operation in the charge storage mode which provides not only the high signal to noise ratios achievable by the prior art but also has a density structure, increased speed of response, and significantly increased resolution not achievable by the prior art.
A further object of the invention is to provide a high density semiconductor imaging array easily fabricated with present techniques.
Still another object of the invention is to described a complete integral solid state system for detecting and analyzing the color of light impinging on the imaging array of the invention.
Still another object of the invention is to describe a large area scanning system by utilizing an array of photoelements coupled to a series of shift registers sensing the current created in the photoelements by the different colors of light impinging on the photoelements and again analyzing the current output of the photoelements to determine the colors of the lights falling on the photoelements.
These and other objects of the present invention are achieved by employing a complete solid state scanning system integrated in a single crystal wafer of one type conductivity semiconductor material. The wafer is provided with a relatively thin layer of the opposite type conductivity diffused or ion-implanted therein and a plurality of insulated electrodes on its surface that, when biased, will provide a depleted region between the surface and the junction between the two conductivity regions. When light enters the body of the wafer it is absorbed by the semiconductor material of the substrate at the depth of penetration of the light and a photocurrent is generated. Because the depth of penetration of the light is a function of the color of the light impinging on the element, analysis of the depth of the generated photocurrent can determine the color of the light impinging on the array.
These and other features, objects, and advantages of the present invention would be more fully realized from the following description of the drawings in which:
FIG. 1 is a sectional view of a single photoelement of the array and a sensing node for that element.
FIG. 2 schematically illustrates an overall system for analyzation of light from a triplet array of photoelements in accordance with the present invention.
FIG. 3 depicts schematically a sensing node, detection amplifier, and scaling amplifiers suitable for use in the analyzing system depicted in FIG. 2.
FIG. 4 depicts an adder circuit suitable for use with the circuits of FIG. 3.
FIG. 5 schematically illustrates a large scale area array employing shift registers and continuous sensing of the light impinging on the photoelement array.
Referring now to FIG. 1 there is depicted a photoelement 10 useful in the present invention together with a transfer gate 11 and a charge sensing node 12 all integrated in a body 14 of suitable semiconductor material. Such as photoelement 10 is formed in the body 14 which may be for example P type semiconductor material coated with an insulating oxide layer 15. The photoelement comprises an N type region 16 and a transparent or partially transparent electrode 17 disposed on the surface of the oxide 15 over the region 16. The region 16 and the electrode 17 are such that when they are biased positive with respect to the body 14 by suitable power supplies 18 and 19 a depletion region will be formed in the body 14 extendng between the electrode 17 and the diffusion 16.
The transfer gate 11 also comprises an electrode 20 disposed on the oxide 15. The electrode 20 is adjacent to or overlaps the electrode 17 and extends so as to be immediately adjacent an N type sensing diffusion 21 created in the body 14 just below the surface of the oxide 15. An electrode 22 is connected to the sensing diffusion 21.
By varying the voltage levels applied to the body 14, the region 16, and the electrode 17, the PN junction deplection region around the diffusion 16 and the depletion region created beneath the electrode 17 can be made to extend across the entire width of body 14 between the electrode 17 and the junction 16. Thus the entire region of the body between the electrode 17 and the diffusion 16 is depleted. The position of the plane denoting the location of the maximum electrode potential energy in the depletion region, represented by the dotted line 23, between the electrode 17 and the region 16 can be shifted closer to the electrode 17 or closer to the diffusion 16 by varying the voltages or ratio of the voltages applied to the body 14, the region 16 and the electrode 17 by supplies 18 and 19. If one assumes that light enters the body 14 through the electrode 17, the light will be absorbed causing hole-electron pair generation as it travels through the body 14. The absoprtion rate and the depth of penetration of the light is a strong function of the color or wave length of the light entering the substrate. For example, the penetration of violet light is very shallow while the penetration of red light is very deep. Thus with the plane 23 at a given distance from the surface known fractions of the spectral components of the light are absorbed between the plane 23 and the surface. With a given photoelement, as shown in FIG. 1, electrons created by the light above the plane 23 will be swept to the surface and stored there while electrons generated below the plane 23 will be swept to and leave via the region 16.
Since conventional color detection and reproduction systems such as color television key on the determination of the magnitudes of the three primary components red, green, and blue, the description that follows will also key on these three components. The system described herein can, of course, be simplified or expaned to provide lower or higher fidelity color detection as required.
If we choose the three components such as blue, green, and red then for a given distance x extending from the surface of the body 14 to the plane 23 as determined by a first ratio of the applied voltages the fractions of these three components absorbed within the distance x are a1, b1, and c1.
These absorbed light magnitudes will generate hole electron charge pairs in the semiconductor within the distance x=x1 of the surface, i.e. the plane 23 is established at a distance x1 from the surface of the body. Due to the established electric fields in this region, the generated electrons will flow to the surface while the generated holes will flow toward the undepleted semiconductor bulk and effectively flow out of the semiconductor thru the substrate contact. The flow of electrons to the surface can be described by a current I1,
i1 = a1 IB + b1 IG + C1 IR
where IB, IG, IR are the total electron currents generated by the incident blue, green, and red light radiation components respectively, and a1, b1, c1 are the fractions of these components that flow to the silicon surface. After this current I1 is sensed either directly or by sensing the total charge Q1 collected at the surface during a short time interval t1 by removing the charge to the sensing diffusion Z1, the voltage bias conditions are changed to shift the location of plane 23 in the body 14 to x=x2 such that a new current with different values of a, b, c is obtained.
I2 = a2 IB + b2 IG + c2 IR
this new current I2, or the collected charge Q2 are again sensed and the voltages readjusted again so that the location of the plane 23 is shifted to x=x3 and a third current I3 is obtained.
I3 = a3 IB + b3 IG + C3 IR
these three current equations, or associated total charge equations, can now be solved for the unknown color components IB, IG, IR to obtain
ig = g1 i1 + g2 i2 g3 i3
ir = r1 i1 + r2 i2 + r3 i3
where the constants B1, B2, . . . , R2, R3 are known from devices physical and electrical properties and bias conditions. For example,
B1 = (b2 c3 - b3 c2)/Δ
B2 = (b3 c1 - b1 c3)/Δ
B3 = (b1 c2 - b2 c1)Δ
Δ = (a1 b2 c3 +a2 b3 c1 + a3 b1 c2) - a1 b3 c2 + a2 b1 c3 + a3 b2 c1)
As a further example, the fractions a1, b1, . . . b3, c3 can be determined for a given device design as follows. For a given set of bias conditions such that the plane 23 (maximum electron potential location position) is at x=x1, the fraction a1 of blue light (λ = 4700A) absorbed within x1 of the surface is simply
a1 = 1 - e-.sup.α.sbsp.bx.sbsp.1
where αB is the absorption coefficient for blue light
αB = 1.3�104 (cm.sup.-1) λ = 4700A
b1 = 1-e-.sup.α.sbsp.gx.sbsp.1, αG = 8.4�103 (cm.sup.-1), (λ = 5200A)
c1 = 1-e-.sup.α.sbsp.rx.sbsp.1, αR = 3�103 (cm-1), (λ= 6500A)
the fractions a2, b2, c2 can be obtained from these equations by replacing x1 by x2, the fractions a3, b3, c3 can similarly be obtained by using the x=x3 value appropriate for the third set of bias conditions used.
An exemplary system for the detection of color is shown in FIg. 2. This FIG. illustrates three photoelements 25, 26, and 27 each coupled to a respective detection amplifier 28, 29, and 30. Each of these detection amplifiers is in turn coupled to a trio of scaling amplifiers. Thus a detector 28 is coupled to scaling amplifiers 28a, 28b, and 28c while detection amplifier 29 is coupled to scaling amplifiers 29a, 29b, and 29c and detection amplifier 30 is coupled to scaling amplifiers 30a, 30b, and 30c. The outputs of each of these scaling amplifiers is in turn coupled to a respective adder circuit 31, 32, and 33. Thus each of the scaling amplifiers 28a, 29a, and 30a are coupled to adder circuit 31, while the outputs of scaling amplifiers 28b, 29b, and 30b are coupled to adder circuit 32 and the outputs of scaling amplifiers 28c, 29c, and 30c are all coupled to adder circuit 33. The output of each of these adder circuits is an indicator of a respective color. Thus the output of adder circuit 31 is a voltage indicative of the incident flux of red light falling on the trio of photoelements 25, 26, and 27, the output of adder circuit 32 being the voltage indicative of the green component of the light and the output of 33 being indicative of the blue component of light.
Briefly the system depicted in FIG. 2 operates as follows. Let us assume that the photoelements 25, 26, and 27 are each individually biased to have the plane 23 occur at unique locations x1, x2, x3 in these photoelements and are all exposed to the same incident light. The light flux passing into the silicon will be described by
φ = ar φr + ag φg + ab φb
where φr, φg, φb are unity color vectors (red, green, blue) and ar, ag, ab are the relative flux densities of these three components. For a given set of bias conditions on the photoelements 25, 26, and 27 let the respective charge collected by each photoelement during a period t be denoted by Q1, Q2, and Q3. Thus there is obtained three charge packets whose magnitudes can be related to the light flux components via
Q1 = d11 ar + d12 ag + d13 ab
Q2 = d21 ar + d22 ar + d23 ab
Q3 = d31 ar + d32 ar + d33 ab (1)
where the d factors in each equation represent constants that are predetermined from the known device structural and electrical properties as well as from the bias conditions. Let these three charge packets be transferred in parallel to the detection amplifier 28, 29, and 30 where they, as will be later explained, be converted into signal voltages V1, V2, and V3 that are respectively proportional to the charge packets Q1, Q2, and Q3.
By defining
______________________________________d11 ar/C.sub. n = B11 VR d21 ar/Cn = B21 VR d31 ar/Cn = B31 VRd21 ag/Cn = B12 VG d22 ag/Cn = B22 VG d32 ag/Cn = B32 VGd13 ab/Cn = B13 VB d23 ab/Cn = B23 VB d33 ab/Cn = B33______________________________________ VB
where Cn = capacitance of the sensing mode in each detection amplifier then the equation set (1) can be written as
v2 = b21 vr + b22 vg + b23 vb
v3 = b31 vr + b32 vg + b33 vb (2)
where VR, VG, VB are signal voltages that are proportional to the color flux density components ar, ag, ab. The color voltage signal level equations can be solved for by simply inverting equation set (2)
vg = a21 v1 + a22 v2 + a23 v3
vb = a31 v1 + a32 v2 + a33 v3
where the A factors in each equation represent constants related to the known physical and electrical perameters and bias conditions of the scaling amplifiers.
Thus to extract the color information from the integrated charge levels Q1, Q2, Q3, and the associated voltages V1, V2, V3, requires only the processing depicted by the schematic shown in FIG. 2. In this FIG. the signal outputs from the detecting amplifiers 28, 29, and 30 are shown to be fed to respective scaling amplifiers 28a, 28b, 28c, 29a, 29b, 29c, 30a, 30b, and 30c and on to adding stages 30, 32, and 33. The outputs of these adding stages are then the color signals VR, VG, VB. The system depicted in FIG. 2 can be adapted to use only a single photoelement and two non-photosensitive storage elements S1, S2. The advantage of the three photoelement system over a system employing but a single photoelement lies in the ability to integrate all three signal charge levels in one distinctive period where the single photoelement arrangement requires three distinct time periods. Thus in the three photoelement system integration of the next `frame` can begin immediately after the charges Q1, Q2, and Q3 are passed to the detection amplifiers.
A circuit that can be used to perform the required detection and scaling function is depicted in FIG. 3. For simplicity in explanation only a single detection amplifier 28 is described together with its associated scaling amplifiers 28a, 28b, and 28c. Detection amplifier 28 comprises three field effect transistors 35, 36, and 37. Transistor 35 has its drain connected to a first voltage supply 38 and its gate connected to a second voltage supply 40 and its source, which is the diffusion 21 in FIG. 1, connected to the gate 42 of FET 36 via lead 22. The drain of FET 36 is in turn connected to a third voltage supply 43 and its source connected to the drain of FET 37 and to the gates 50, 51, and 52 of FET's 53, 54, and 55 that serve respective as the scaling amplifiers 28a, 28b, and 28c. The gate of FET 37 is connected to a fourth voltage supply 44 and its source is grounded.
The drain of each scaling amplifier transistor 53, 54, and 55 is connected to an individual respective power supply 56, 57, and 58. While the source of each scaling amplifier transistor 53, 54, and 55 is connected to a different adder circuit 31, 32, and 33 as shown in FIG. 2. Although the power supplies 28, 40, 44, etc. have been uniquely labeled, in an actual design these supplies need not necessarily be all unique.
This detection amplifier 28 operates as follows. Initially a suitable voltage pulse from supply 40 is applied to the gate of FET 35 causing the FET 35 to become conductive and thereby apply a voltage from supply 38 to the gate 22 of FET 36. This voltage from supply 38 will cause capacitance of the line 22, the gate 42, and the diffusion 21 to become charged to the level of supply 38. This total capacitance is represented by capacitor 60. Once this capacitor 60 is charged to the level of supply 38, supply 40 may be shut off rendering device 35 nonconductive. This voltage, on the capacitance 60, is sufficient to cause device 36 to be conductive permitting a current to flow through device 36 and to charge the gates 50, 51, and 52 of each of the scaling amplifier transistors 53, 54, and 55 to a specified level. The transistor 37 is used as a resistor to ground and its resistance level is adjusted by an appropriate voltage on its gate from source 44 to set the voltage levels of gate 50, 51, and 52.
If the voltages applied to the gates of transistors 36 and 37 are sufficient to operate the transistors 36 and 37 in their linear range, then when a signal is applied to the sensing node or diffusion 21 the capacitance 60 is at least partially discharged changing the voltage on the gate of the transistor 36. This change in gate voltage causes the conductance of device 36 to change which in turn causes the voltate applied to gates 50, 51, 52 to change. Thus the voltage applied to the gates 50, 51, and 52 has a component which is proportional to the color flux density impinging upon the photoelement 25. If the device 53 is also operated in the linear range, the signal applied by device 53 to the adder circuit 31 contains component A11 V1. At the same time, the devices 54 and 55 can be designed to transmit to adder 32 and to adder 33 respectively the signals that have the components A21 V1, A31 V1 respectively. Providing similar circuitry for the other detection amplifiers and scaling amplifiers shown in FIG. 2 leads to the following signals being supplied to the adder circuits 31, 32, and 33 respectively.
I011 -A11 V1 + I012 -A12 V2 + I013 -A13 V3 to adder 31
I021 -A21 V1 + I022 -A22 V2 + I023 -A23 V3 to adder 32
I031 -A31 V1 + I032 -A32 V2 + I033 -A33 iV3 to adder 33
Turning now to FIG. 4 there will be described a simple circuit for performing the adder function. This circuit comprises a simple load resistor 65 coupled between inputs 61, 62, and 63 and ground. The inputs 61, 62, and 63 would each be connected to a different scaling amplifier set. For example, input 61 could be from scaling amplifier 28a, input 62 from scaling amplifier 29a and input 63 from scaling amplifier 30a. Thus at the voltage of the output node 64 of the adder circuit is a summation of each of the input voltages. For this given example the output of adder 31 is a voltage representative of the red light impinging on the trio of photoelements 25, 26, 27, the output of adder 32 a voltage representative of the green light and the output of adder 33 representative of the blue light. Shown in FIG. 5 is an area array scanner built in accordance with the present invention. Shown is an Nx3M photoelement array 70 built on a body 69 containing an underlying diffused or ion-implanted region not shown. The array 70 is comprised of a multiplicity of sets of triplet shift registers having transparent electrodes of which only two sets, the first 71 and the last 71n, are shown. Each shift register in each set is coupled to a respective shift register 75, 76, or 77.
Each shift register, making up such a triplet set may be, for example, a charge coupled shift register, either two phase or three phase, as described, for example, in U.S. Pat. No. 3,819,959 issued June 25, 1974 to J. J. Chang, et al. and assigned to the same assignee as the present invention.
Thus triplet set 71 is comprised, for example, of three, three phase charge coupled shift registers 72, 73, and 74. In building such an array, different insulator thicknesses could be used under each shift register of the triplet set to establish the three different levels of electron potential energy minimum per triplet that is required to determine the three different colors. By so using three different oxide thicknesses standard charge coupled operating pulses can be used to shift the received information out of each register.
Thus, for example, the oxide thickness under register 72 would be less than that under register 73 which in turn would be less than that under register 74. As shown, each register is comprised of a multiplicity of electrodes. When operated as a photoelement only the first phase electrodes, of each shift register, in each triplet set, would be biased to serve as photoelements in accordance with the invention. This for example, in register 72, electrodes 72a and 72d would be biased to serve as photoelements while the penultimate electrode 72T would be a transfer gate and the ultimate electrode 72x would be over a suitable sensing diffusion and be coupled to another shift register 77.
Thus, upon exposure to light, register 74, for example, would be primarily sensitive to that spectrum of light below the blue reference level, register 73 would be primarily sensitive to the spectrum below the green reference level and register 72 would be primarily sensitive to the entire spectrum below the red reference level.
Following exposure of such an array to light, the information would be initially stored under each first phase electrode and then shifted out in accordance with the well known charge coupled shifting technique out to the three 1�M shift registers 75, 76, and 77. Thus one bit of information is shifted out of each shift register in each triplet set in the array into a respective one of the registers 75, 76, and 77. The information received by these registers 75, 76, and 77 is then shifted out to a series of detection amplifiers 28, 29, and 30 identical to those shown in FIGS. 2 and 3. Once the shift registers 75, 76, and 77 are cleared the next bit of information from the array shift registers triplet sets are shifted into them and the sequence repeated.
Once the information is introduced into the detection amplifiers it is processed in a manner identical to that described above, i.e. the photocurrent is sensed and converted into the appropriate voltages representative of the color of light incident on the array.
It should be understood that although insulator thickness was described in connection with the array the voltage and or surface doping concentrations can be used to establish the requisite different space charge or depletion depths.
Although a preferred embodiment has been described herein it should be obvious to those skilled in the art that the invention may be carried out in various ways and may take various forms of embodiments other than those described above. Accordingly, it is understood that the present invention is not limited by the details of the foregoing description but is defined by the following claims.

Looking for dinnerware that doesn't get grey cutlery marks
I am cross-posting this cuz the original post was on Home Decor which I rarely frequent. I am posting the link below.
I am reviving this thread, as I am looking to replace/upgrade my everyday stoneware dishes. Was thinking I wanted to get plain white, but while shopping did find I was drawn to the colourful stoneware dishes...
Part of the reason I wanted to replace my current set was the grey (Now I know from cutlery) marks all over the dishes. From reading this post, I cleaned them all off with BKF, magic eraser didn't work at all. Totally amazed at how new they all look, but many of the plates have chips under the rims, so am going to buy new. After doing research on the web for a few days, it is not 100% clear how to avoid those cutlery marks on dinnerware, various opinions blamed the SS count, ie whether is was 18/10, 18/8 etc. I have a feeling it is the stoneware that marks up the most. My porcelain and my good china dishes aren't marked. DH says it's because they're not used as much. He's right, they don't get much use, but I'm wondering if those of you who DO use porcelain or bone china daily still get grey marks.
To make it even harder, just got an email today that Ikea is putting their Fargrik 6 place setting stoneware set on sale for $19.99! Maybe I just buy 2 sets of that for now, and wait to fall in love with some coloured/patterned set and buy when it's on sale. Still won't address the grey cutlery marks...
So, I'm not opposed to 'upgrading to china or porcelain', just have always had stoneware as my everyday dishes. Probably would like to stay around $15-20 (or less) per place setting. Can wait to buy till it's on sale, don't like the look of Corelle, don't want something that looks bargain basement, ie plates all wonky---poor quality control, blobs of glaze, etc. I'm in Canada, so recommendations that are available here really appreciated.
Here is a link that might be useful: I'd like to find white dishes that will stay white!
Raehelen, I have Johnson Brother's stoneware that ranges from 40 years old to about 6 years old. Most of it is the Rose Chintz pattern, but I also have a good bit of the Coaching Scenes pattern and my Thanksgiving dinnerware is JB "His Majesty" pattern. Because of the all over print I have no cutlery marks at all.
One thing to keep in mind if you find a JB pattern that you love is the new pieces are not at all the great quality the vintage pieces are. My vintage JB has beautiful deep coloration in the pattern and all have the mark of the person who applied the coloring. The new pieces are mass produced and not, imo, comparable in quality.
The His Majesty pattern is a beautiful large tom turkey and the coloring is gorgeous (vintage pieces). Several years ago I was at an outlet that had JB and they had that pattern on display and it was not at all attractive. The colors were almost all the same non descript brown tone where the vintage has beautiful deep browns, reds, and greens in the pattern.
We have had this Mikasa Italian Countryside 16-Piece Dinnerware Set set since 2008 for our every day dishes. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000AE8NLE/ref=oh_details_o06_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
We got 4 sets because we are not that careful with dishes and didn't want to have to replace them - use for every meal and for planted pot water catchers, dog bowls, microwave, dishwasher, turpentine, etc. Ends up we could have bought just 3 sets and we would be fine. Not a mark on them. They are very sturdy and go with everything. Only one bowl has a chip and that was my mistake with an unfortunate granite vs. bowl incident. They look the same as the day we got them. They are not pure white though - they are a light creme.
We had the marking problem you describe several years ago with a set of Pfaltzgraff stoneware. It drove us nuts because the pieces never looked clean. We learned about the problem from several experts and indeed with the help of Pfaltzgraff.
The marks are caused by the interaction between stainless steel and many types of stoneware. It does not occur with porcelin or bone china. In fact, Pfaltzgraff makes a cleaner which requires considerable scrubbing to remove the marking.
Go for other types of dinnerware to avoid the extra cleaning.
Our bone china we received for our wedding is from Crate and Barrel and not a mark on it! I've since bought some plainer white dishes, also bone china, similar to the PB everyday dishes, at Christmas Tree Shops and love those too. Not easily broken and we don't exactly treat them kindly. Plus, the added bonus of having plain white dishes is I can mix and match them with vintage salad plates, printed napkins, or my faux silver chargers to dress things up.
I have the Ikea 365 dinnerware (white) and there are no marks on it. Also, it appears to be difficult to chip - we bang it around a lot and it seems to endure. I just love a pure white plate.
FWIW, I have Arcoroc glass, some old Pier1 glazed pottery, Laura Ashley Starlight (which is really just cheap stoneware with a fancy pattern on the edges--the same thing they used to sell plain in places like Woolworth and Kmart), and some Herend porcelain, and none of them have ever gotten knife marks. This must be limited to some particular stoneware glazes, I would guess.
I have used Lancaster by Adams (Ironstone) almost for over 50 years without any silverware scratches....only a chip or two...here and there... The older Ironstone patterns that once belonged to my mother and grandmother also escaped this fate. Perhaps different materials and surfaces react differently to the silverware scraping and knife cutting...? Good luck with your IKEA replacement plan!
Thanks for all the feedback! I love the look of stoneware, and while shopping I was surprised at how drawn I was to the dark patterned choices, though my intention was to buy white. I do think stoneware is more prone to the grey marks than either porcelain or china, though maybe just the light coloured stoneware, ie white or light in the 'body' of the dish?
I am actually more torn and indecisive than when I started...the practical side of me says white, and mix it up with pottery side dishes, etc, but my heart definitely loves the earthiness of those beautiful glazed pieces! I don't have a ton of shelf space, but then again, maybe getting rid of my present mish mash will free up room. I think a visit to Crate and Barrel is definitely in order, didn't even know we had one here in Canada...though the price of the Fargrik at Ikea is tempting...I think that being stoneware, it will probably mark up, which is what I'm trying to avoid.
So, do any of you have dark/darker stoneware...ie not beige or white, and does it show grey marks too?
Well, have an update for you! Shopped at pretty well all my local stores that carry dinnerware, and finally bought a white Porcelain set from Home Outfitters, (tied in to The Bay here in Canada). Was on sale, and when I got home, found out by researching online that several retailers carry this line. So, hopefully, if I want to add serving pieces, etc, it should be OK. Pattern is Amore by an Italian company Luigi Bormioli, was disappointed to find out it was made in China as box and advertising emphasizes that it is 'Italian'. I bought two 12 piece boxes, each 4 place settings. One box had several flaws in dishes, returned it today and it took amalgamating 3 boxes to get a good 12 piece set. Bought a box of 4 mugs which I should have checked, one has a slight flaw, but I'm not going back! Anyhow, I am so happy that I chose white, don't think I will ever buy stoneware again...just hope these don't mark up...I am hoping they won't...vitrified porcelain...supposedly 'combines the advantages of bone china and durable porcelain'.
I'm glad you've found something you love! I'll add my 2 cents for others reading the thread.
I've been using Ikea 365+ for about 18 months with no marks. My old Noritake Colorwave had lots of marks, and I'm using the same flatware.
Also, I'm amazed at how many times I've accidentally banged a plate or bowl on the granite counter without it breaking or chipping.
Yes, I've heard lots of good things about the Ikea 365+. If our Ikea was closer and not over a toll bridge, I would definitely have considered it. That and Crate and Barrel would have been contenders if they were closer. Seeing as I had to return some flawed dishes, really glad I found something close.
Glad you found such a pretty and functional set.
I guess I'll add my set to the mix too for the benefit of some other potential readers. I have been using mikasa antique white as my everyday dishes for the past 4 years and they are as white today as the day I bought them. I have a few extra pieces because there were small marks when they arrived and mikasa sent out new ones right away ( I ordered directly from mikasa). Oh and as I am a bull in a china shop, I can attest to the fact that they are strong!
Has anyone had any experience with Mikasa Lucerene White Bone China? I am curious about its ability to avoid the markings from utensils. Also it is billed as chip resistant and durable. Have you found this to be accurate?
(Sold direct from Mikasa or from Costco).
We bought our college son Ikea 365. At some point, one of the plates ended up back here. They chip very easily.
My Denby is awesome. Maybe I have the right stainless ware but there are no marks. Mikasa Countryside, my wedding every day selection, lasted 28 years without changing color. I replaced it because of crazing on a few pieces, from microwave use. DH loves the Microwave when he is on his own...

The Hawkins Strategy: Repealing Obamacare By Cutting Off The Funds
The problem with doing a full repeal of Obamacare is that it will take a majority in the House, the presidency, and 60 votes in the Senate.
Were I a betting man, I'd say condition one is very likely by 2012, condition 2 is definitely possible, but condition 3 is basically out of reach given that we only have 41 Senators right now. By 2014? Maybe, but under any circumstances, getting to 60 Senators is always extraordinarily difficult. Of course, we may be able to peel off some Democratic votes, but there's no guarantee that will happen.
So, how do we kill Obamacare?
I have an idea.
"The IRS might have to hire as many as 16,000 new employees to enforce all the new taxes and penalties the bill calls for! And that doesn't include all the other government jobs from the 159 new agencies, panels, commissions and departments this bill will create."
What does it take to fund all those government jobs, agencies, panels, & commissions? Tax dollars.
Now, who controls the purse strings? Congress. How many votes do we need via reconciliation to make budget changes? 51.
So, can we gut Obamacare by refusing to fund it?
Is this a viable strategy? Yes, it is.
Now, what if Obama is President and we do this? He still has to sign a reconciliation bill. Will he do that? He's certainly not going to be inclined to do it. But, if Republicans don't back down, we've got a stand-off. At that point, it probably comes down to who has the American people at their back. I like those odds.
On the other hand, if we can replace Obama in 2012, then a Republican President will definitely sign off on reconciliation and we've eviscerated Obamacare.
Of course, the ideal is still to repeal Obamacare in its entirety — and that should be our ultimate goal. But, if we can defund it while we're working towards that end, it'll be like ripping the engine out of the car that drives the bill — and it's very doable.

Focus on Connecticut English Pleasure
English pleasure is a all-encompassing term for a number of different English riding classes seen at horse shows in the U.S., where the horse is ridden in either a hunt seat or saddle seat tack. A Hunt seat includes walk, trot, canter, and focuses on the horse's manners and way of going. Saddle seat is usually for flashy and gaited horses and shows off their high-stepping flair.

To help us monitor the drinking habits of the practice, we would appreciate the help of the visitors to the website in completing the alcohol questionnaire below. It should take no longer than 3-4 minutes to complete and will help us build up a picture of our practice profile.Thanks for taking the time.
If you would like to discuss your drinking habits we have an alcohol advisor who runs a clinic on Thursday morning, you can make an appointment to see her by ringing the reception team on 01274 697600
During February 2015, 67 patients failed to attend a prebooked appointment with one of the doctors wasting 11hrs 35mins of surgery time.
75 patients didn't attend prebooked nurse appointments wasting 23hrs 40mins of surgery time and 12 patients didn't attend with the attached teams (physio etc) wasting 4hrs 11mins.
Repeated missed appointment will result in the patient being removed from the practice list and will need to register at another surgery.
The doctors and staff at Low Moor Medical Practice in Bradford are proud to offer the highest standard of patient-centred healthcare. We run many clinics for the management of chronic diseases such as asthma and diabetes and offer a wide variety of other medical services including antenatal and postnatal care, minor surgery, childhood vaccinations and well-person check-ups.
In addition to everything you need to know about the practice you will also find a wealth of health-related information in the menu on the right hand side. Please have a look around and do send us some feedback if you like.
Low Moor Medical Centre provides full access and has facilities for the disabled.
Please follow the link on the right to the page for the Friend and Family Test- just below the header 'Have your say'. We would like to know what you think.

Dr Jon Lolljee will be rejoining the practice towards the end of February as a permanant memeber of the team after his spell covering Dr Kitchens maternity leave.

US Embassy Sanctioned Lawsuit Against Aussie ISP iiNet 263
from the conspiracy-against-the-laity-part-XVXIIIX dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
As I post this, it's almost 10:00am on Wednesday, January 24 in Perth, Australia where iiNet is headquartered.
How many Aussies will take to the streets after reading this? Ehhhh... there's one! Oh, that's just a pedestrian... how about that one?!! Nope. Going to his car.
(sound of crickets)
(fade to black)
For the US embassy to take part in that, couldn't this seen as a hostile act by the victim country?
Only if said victim country wasn't already the US' bitch.
Thuggery, buggery and some skullduggery. Hang on a minute, who are the pirates again?

Not only do we have oil, we have coal, natural gas and uranium.
And what do you all do? Drive on the wrong side of the road and export Vegemite.
What sort of contribution to civilization is that?
That's why we export it.

Homemade Lady Fingers
Lady Fingers are a lightly sweet sponge cake shaped like a large finger. They are also referred to as sponge biscuits, Boudoir biscuits or Savoy biscuits. Lady fingers can be eaten on their own but are more often used as part of more complex desserts such as Tiramisu, Triffles and Charlottes.
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sifted all-purpose flour
- 4 egg yolks
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 4 egg whites, beaten until stiff
- Pinch of salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Powdered sugar for dusting
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour 2 baking sheets with 2 tablespoons butter and 2 tablespoons of flour. Mark parallel lines in the flour across the width of the tray about 4 inches apart. Put the eggs and sugar in a large mixing bowl, and beat with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until the mixture is pale yellow, thick, and has tripled in volume, about 8 minutes. Add the egg whites, the remaining 3/4 cup flour, the salt and vanilla, and fold to mix well until the mixture is smooth. Fill a large pastry bag with a 3/4-inch plain tube with the mixture. Pipe fingers about 4 1/2-inches in length on to the baking sheet, using the lines as a guide. Dust the ladyfingers with powdered sugar. Bake until just firm on the outside and soft in the center, 15 to 18 minutes.

Phoronix: Mesa 10.3 Landing For Ubuntu 14.10 "Utopic Unicorn"
Mesa 10.3 is in the process of making its way to Ubuntu 14.10...
I'm waiting for the guy that claimed that Ubuntu ships with "years old drivers" (and That's a quote!) to show up. Please explain how Mesa 10.3 is years old.
Anyways, glad to see Mesa 10.3 in for Utopic!
Unrelated, but I really hope AMD pushes out a Catalyst driver with Xorg 1.16 support before the Utopic Release.
Not because I am an ubuntu user, but because I want to upgrade my Debian system to the current version of Xorg and I cant because Catalyst is not compatible.
https://packages.debian.org/sid/fglrx-driver* New upstream release provided by AMD with xserver 1.16 support. The full
release name is 14.4.2+GA14.201.1006.1002.
It hasn't been 'quite some time' it was posted on the 11th of September. Less than 14 days ago.
I have literally been checking every few days for weeks. Apt-get is still showing me 14.6beta1 as the latest and considering the latest release (14.30-1005) is not 1.16 compatible I assumed they hadn't released one. http://www.phoronix.com/forums/showt...yst-14-30-1005
I dont know how that one slipped by be, and its not coming up on my apt-get but I can fix that.
Cool to see X.Org Server 1.16 and Mesa 10.3 landing in Ubuntu 14.10.
Too bad it doesn't have Wayland 1.6, PHP 5.6 and GNOME 3.14.
Too bad many of the GNOME packages are oudated packages from 3.10, 3.8 and in some cases even 3.6.

LOL! Watch Morgan Freeman + Jimmy Fallon Inhale Helium Together [VIDEO]
It looks like Jimmy Fallon is as obsessed with the clip of Morgan Freeman talking on helium as the rest of us are -- so much so that he even made the iconic actor do it again!
It looks like Jimmy Fallon is as obsessed with the clip of Morgan Freeman talking on helium as the rest of us are -- so much so that he even made the iconic actor do it again!
Don't let Kate Hudson's giggling and big smiles fool you. This is a great, great Box of Lies competitor who sits before you. On last night's 'Tonight Show,' Hudson and host Jimmy Fallon faced off for another round of Box of Lies, a game that basically hinges on a guest's ability to lie effectively.
Watch Miranda Kerr and Jimmy Fallon face off in a down-to-the-wire battle of the classic bar game, Flip Cup.
Cameron Diaz stopped by 'The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon,' and in a hilarious battle of indoor paddling skills, battled Fallon for kayaking supremacy.
'Tonight Show' host Jimmy Fallon often turns to his loyal fans to find and submit strange stuff, especially when it comes to his always-amusing 'Screengrabs' segment. Yet, crammed between those terrible stock photos and awkward weather forecast emoticons, this week's 'Screengrabs' segment packs a special punch.
Magic! stopped by 'The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon' last night and performed their summer hit, 'Rude!'
'Live' co-host Kelly Ripa stopped by 'The Tonight Show' with Jimmy Fallon last night (July 9) and the two talk show hosts faced off in a hilarious battle of pop culture knowledge in a new segment titled 'Pop Quiz.'
Last night (July 8), Oscar-winning actress Halle Berry stopped by 'The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon' -- and formed a hamster wheel with the host!
Jimmy Fallon's love for turning basic drinking games into outsized (often, quite literally) versions of themselves is well documented, but the 'Tonight Show' host just might have reached the apex of his drinking game adoration when he challenged Pitbull (Mr. Worldwide, please) to a round of Giant Duff Beer Pong. Wait, why Duff? Because Fallon and his show have been camped out at Universal Studios in Orlando all week, and yes, this game is all about Duff Beer, the favorite fictional beer of 'The Simpsons.'
Attention, 'Harry Potter' fans: You have one equal-parts Potterhead and rap enthusiast to thank for the incredible 'Harry Potter' rap you're about to enjoy.

News about reggae music, artists, culture and more...
Following an outstanding 2010 campaign which saw him release what was arguably the best Reggae EP of the year, 'Lively Road', Dutch Caribbean all star Smiley has gotten his 2011 started and he's done so with a very familiar set up for his big new tune, Keep The Joy which features Jamaican superstar Anthony B. Fans may recall one of Smiley's earliest hits, Dem A Wonder, which also featured him alongside another Jamaican Roots veteran in Junior Kelly and just like that tune, the new sterling piece is a production of the reputable Al.Ta.Fa.An. on their cool Strength Riddim.
Want more irony? This isn't the first time he's voiced the Strength Riddim. The Trelawny native once did the sweet Don't Cry, in another combination - with the big voiced Mark Wonder on the same riddim.
Anthony B comes back and joins Smiley on the delightful and uplifting Keep The Joy for Love & Unity Music - Available around the globe digitally on February 18.

Is there any flashable zip to add hdr feature to our camera app? (Minicm7.2 )
I'm using an app to capture hdr, it raises the jpg image size to 1.5 mb!
Taken pictures are more clear (noise reduced) and more detailed. So I would be happy if we would have this in our camera app instead of market apps...

Toasted Oak Grill & Market's charcuterie sampler board recently featured, at center with knife, house-made country pate with ginger chutney; and clockwise from left, proscuitto, toasted baguette slices, coppa, pickles and mustard.
- Filed Under
The new Toasted Oak Grill & Market at the Hotel Baronette in Novi opened quietly last week, featuring a casual but sophisticated menu emphasizing bistro-inspired small plates, cheese and charcuterie samplers, and wood-grilled meats and fish.
Executive chef Steven Grostick - formerly of Five Lakes Grill in Milford and Table 5 in Northville - is sourcing many ingredients from Michigan growers and purveyors and making many of the condiments, as well as pates and sausages, in house.
A first look at the restaurant this week revealed not only a tempting menu, but handsomely presented and ...

Already there, the real Maria
Submitted by Stonewall Jackson on Fri, 07/26/2013 - 09:43. Permalink
Already there, the real Maria von Trapp, of "Sound of Music" fame, wrote some books and shared some of the experiences she had in Nazi Austria, they will give you goosebumps.
besides the obvious camps etc, she said they the Nazis pestered local diners for having square corners on the tables, "because they were dangerous" and gave them big fines.
they forbade Religion in schools, they told her to Abort her Baby because Maria had a kidney condition, and lots of other great Crap that is supported by idiots of all stripes, and political views, PaleoConservatives, excluded.

which pipe should I use
I want to add lighting to my new patio. I want to add 2 pillars with lamp light on top of it. At my old place, I don't recall what the landscapers put. I think the depth of the pipe was 10" from the top of the patio floor.
I want to do it myself. I did some search and found out from an article to use high density polyethyline pvc.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
You don't. Buried conduit is by definition a wet location. You expect it to fill with water eventually.
"how do you watertight the threads? i always wondered that."
The threads are IPT, the same as water pipes but no dope is required so the seal is not really water tight.
Condensation is going to very likely eventually fill the pipe up anyway.
Buries is a wet location and the correct wet rated wire is required.
Just about every buried conduit eventually ends up filled with water.
if the conduit fills with water, why do we use it? why don't we just direct bury the wire.
this link is where i thought all conduits must be arranged to drain.

This is what I really want to put, pillar with lights. I had it at the old place. So what's the safe way to do this?
We use it because it's easier to pull wires in conduit that's in place than direct bury, you can place it closer to the surface, the wires are better protected against physical damage, you can't even get UF in a large enough sizes for some applications.
VIRTUOUSLY: The way I would do that is to run conduit up to a junction box mounted in the stone pillar where you want the receptacle and then another up to the base of the luminiere.
It should only be a dig once situation if long enough sweeps are used and it is built properly. If something happens the bad wire can be pulled out and a new wire pulled back in its place. Water will get in the pipe no matter how much pipe dope or glue you use..
"if the conduit fills with water, why do we use it? why don't we just direct bury the wire."
And what do you think happens in side the jacket of direct burial wire?
It slowly fills with water.
The is why UF does not have any paper filler that could cause problems, while NM is not allowed in wet locations because of the paper filler.

You might try looking in the NEC for code requirements.
"no. im saying if the conduit fills with water, what is the point of using it. why are the codes there? WHY?"
For mechanical protection of the conductors and tier insulation from damage.
If the correct insulation is used the water does not have any effect.
Water is not actually a conductor at all, it is dissolved ionic contaminants in the water that conduct the current.
Very pure water is used as an insulator in electrical discharge machining.
The NEC rules are that conduit systems are sealed to prevent wholesale entry of water.
Buried system often eventually fill with water, but with the correct insulation on the conductors and the very low resistance of the wires themselves there is not significant current leakage.
