This invention was made with Government support under contract DE-AC05-840R21400 awarded by the U.S. Department of Energy to Martin Marietta Energy Systems, Inc. and the Government has certain rights in this invention.
The present invention relates generally to laser ablation devices and, more specifically, to a rapidly switched multiple target laser ablation system for depositing metal and metal oxide films on a substrate. The metal and metal oxide components are ablated individually or in combination by placing them on a movable support and synchronizing discharges of an ablation laser with movement of the support.
Laser-assisted evaporation has been used previously to deposit thin films of superconducting materials such as YBa2 Cu3 O7. The deposition process utilizes a high power, pulsed excimer laser to ablate superconducting material from the face of a superconducting pellet and to deposit the same onto a nearby substrate.
As shown in FIG. 1, a vacuum chamber 1 is coupled to a pump 2. A laser beam 3 enters the chamber 1, after passing through a focusing lens, through a quartz window 5 and strikes a pellet 6 of superconductor material. The pellet 6 is mounted about 1-5 cm from a substrate 8, which is heated by heater 9, while a vacuum of about 1�10-6 torr is maintained. The beam 3 of pulsed 248 nm light is generated by a KrF laser source. A white plasma is produced at the surface of the pellet 6 and a visible plume 7 of excited ejected particles extends toward substrate 8. Typical resulting film thicknesses range from 0.1 to 3 μm.
By ablating a high transition temperature superconducting composition, a superconducting thin film may be obtained on a suitable substrate as described above. However, the ability to vary the film composition in a controlled manner has been identified as a problem, particularly for research and development purposes.
In the past, control of the final film composition was accomplished by changing the mix of a single target. This approach has involved preparation of many pellets of varying composition requiring days or weeks before a determination could be made regarding the composition of the deposited film. Variability had to be traced back through target preparation, film deposition conditions and film analysis.
An object of the present invention is to provide a laser ablation system capable of rapidly exchanging multiple source materials.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a laser ablation system capable of varying a superconductor film composition in a controlled manner.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a laser ablation system capable of depositing a continuous crystallin structure having multiple layers deposited with atomically sharp transitions therebetween.
These and other objects of the invention are met by providing a laser ablation method which includes the steps of sequentially laser ablating pure components of a metal or metal oxide in a vacuum, and collecting the ablated components on a suitable heated substrate to provide a crystalline composition having desirable electronic properties.
More specifically, the invention is a process for preparing high temperature superconducting oxide films of the type LnBa2 Cu3 O7-x, where
Ln is an element selected from the lanthanide group;
Ba is barium;
Cu is copper;
O is oxygen; and
x is a small number less than 1;
wherein individual elements of superconductor component are sequentially laser ablated in vacuum and deposited on a substrate in an amount proportional to its presence in the superconducting oxide composition.
Another aspect of the present invention is to provide an apparatus which includes an indexable rotating drum on which are mounted a plurality of individual components making up the superconducting composition. The drum is placed in a vacuum chamber, and rotated at low or high speed. The laser is synchronously discharged with energy proportioned to generate the desired proportion of components.
The individual components may be placed on the rotating drum as metals or as metal oxides, insulators, semiconductors, superconductors, or as other solid, stable materials sought to be deposited. If in the form of a metal, a source of oxygen, such as a hot bleed or background oxygen in the containment, will be required since the deposited film must be in the form of an oxide. Alternatively, a second rotating drum having frozen oxygen thereon may be placed in the system adapted to be ablated by the laser also. If metal oxides are used an target material, the deposited composite will be in the form of an oxide. Annealing in an oxygen bearing atmosphere may be required as a final treatment in order to achieve the desired stoichiometry.
Other objects, advantages and salient features of the invention will become apparent from the following detailed description, which taken in conjunction with the annexed drawings, discloses preferred embodiments of the invention.
FIG. 1 is a schematic view of a known laser ablation apparatus using a single pulsed laser ablation beam;
FIG. 2 is a schematic view of a laser ablation apparatus according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention; and
FIG. 3 is a front view of the rotatable drum used in the present invention.
Referring to FIG. 2, a laser ablation system 10 includes a laser ablation chamber 12 which interior is maintained at a vacuum by a turbo pump 14. A continuous sidewall 16 defines the interior of the chamber 12.
A movable support 18 is mounted in the ablation chamber 12. In the illustrated embodiment, the support 18 is a rotable drum having a plurality of target segments 20, each made of material to be ablated, mounted on the periphery of the rotatable drum 18 at equi-angular positions.
The drum is rotated about rotation axis "A" by any suitable means for imparting high speed rotation, such as an electric motor (not shown). The motor or actuator can be located within or outside the vacuum chamber, although in the later case suitable sealing means would be provided where the drive shaft passes through the sidewall 16 of the vacuum chamber 12.
Position detection means are provided for producing a signal indicative of the angular position of the drum 18. In the illustrated embodiment, the detection means includes a synchronization pickup 22 which cooperates with a position indexer 24 mounted on and rotatable with the drum 18 to produce a signal indicative of the position of the rotatable drum 18 and thus the target segments 20 mounted thereon.
As an example, the position indexer 24 can be an aluminum disk having a plurality of radially disposed slots formed therein, and the pickup 22 can be a light emitting diode (LED) and photodiode pair. Light from the LED is interrupted by the disk 24, except when the slots pass between the LED and photodiode. Thus, a position signal is generated when the slots pass through the pickup 22. This type of position detector is inexpensive, relatively simple and accurate, and has been used in personal computers for indicating position of a floppy disk. Of course, any other suitable position detectors can be employed.
This arrangement produces an electrical pulse each time the indexer slot passes through the detector beam. This electrical signal is supplied to a controller 26 to help determine, along with other inputs, control of a pulsed ablation laser 28. The controller 26 controls the laser timing and energy levels needed to achieve a desired film composition.
The laser 28 is preferably a excimer laser capable of a high repetition rate, capable of being fired externally with better than microsecond timing repeatability, and employing electronic charge voltage control, modified if necessary to allow adjustment up and down for each pulse at full repetition rate such as, for example, 80 or 200 Hz.
A laser beam 30 output from the laser source 28 is focused by a focusing lens 32 onto a target 20 in the ablation chamber 12. A quartz window 34 is provided in the sidewall 16 of the ablation chamber 12 to permit passage of the beam 30 into the chamber 12. When the beam is focused on the target, a plume 36 is generated. The plume 36 emanates towards a substrate 38 mounted on a heater/support 40. Preferably, the substrate 38 faces the target being ablated.
An important aspect of the present invention is the control of the laser output to effect a desired composition of thin film deposit on the substrate. In the past, a single target made of YBCO compound was ablated. It was not, however, possible by any simple means to determine the film composition during the film deposition activity. The film had to be removed from the chamber and analyzed by Rutherford Back Scattering in an accelerator laboratory, or by EDX in an electron microscope, or some other means.
It was known then that film deposition rates of simple stable materials could be accurately measured in conventional vacuum deposition systems using a commercially available quartz crystal thin film rate monitor. In this monitor, an electrical signal varied according to mass being added to the surface of a quart plate. However, in order to do so, one must know the composition of the film being measured. If the composition is not well known, neither is the deposition rate. Consequently, the quartz crystal thin film rate monitor has heretofore offered little advantage in controlling conventional laser ablation deposition of compound material.
The present invention takes the stable components of the YBCO, the individual oxides (Y2O3, BaO, CuO) or the pure metals (Y, Ba, Cu) and any other elements or compounds needed, on separate segments of the drum 18 as the individual targets 20. When making a film, each constituent is ablated sequentially in proper proportions, so that the correct composition is achieved at the film.
In order to know what that proportion is, it is important to first determine how much of each target material a given laser pulse transfers. This is accomplished by making a calibration run before forming the film.
To make the calibration run, and referring to FIG. 2, the film substrate 38 is replaced with a quartz crystal thin film rate monitor 42, so that the surface of the quartz plate of the monitor 42 is positioned where the surface of the substrate would be during film deposition. The controller 26 is then programmed so that only one target segment is selected and so that the laser pulse energy is constant for each shot. During this procedure, the rate monitor output is stored for several pulses until an accurate measure of the material transferred at that energy level is determined. Then, the pulse energy setting is changed and the measurement is repeated. Repeating this procedure for several energies will build a calibration table for that particular target material.
The above procedures are repeated for each target material on the drum to thus determine the transfer rate for each material desired in a film deposition run.
After calibration, the quartz crystal thin film rate monitor 42 is replaced by the substrate/heater assembly (as shown in FIG. 2), and the apparatus is ready to deposit a film of known composition. Using the calibration tables, the user can specify how hard (including skipping) the laser is to fire on each target in order to generate the correct film composition. Under the operator's control, whereby the operator selects desirable proportions of selected materials, the system can effect abrupt but precise shifts in composition as may be desired for superlattices and artificially layered materials. It can include forming buffer layers, the main film, metallization layers for contacts, protective overcoats, etc. This could be valuable for hundreds or even thousands of materials in addition to the high temperature superconductors.
A pulse energy detector 44 produces an electrical signal indicative of the beam 30 intensity. This signal is provided to the controller 26 to effect feedback control of the laser pulse energy on the next cycle to prevent variations in laser characteristics, from introducing unwanted variations in film composition., this provides a slow response feedback affecting succeeding cycles. The controller could also adjust laser pulse energy to compensate for window fogging, target consumption, etc., if appropriate monitors are installed.
A shutter 46, operable from outside the chamber 12, provides means for shielding the substrate 38 during target cleaning by ablating away the surface layer.
As described above, the controller 26 receives input from the rate monitor 42, the energy detector 44, and the position detector 22. Based on the predetermined calibration values, the user can manually, or by computer programming, input at the controller 26 the desired laser energy for each target segment independent of the others, including skipping. The pulse firing rate is also input to generate a recipe such that extra target segments could be installed on the holder, but skipped during much of a film deposition, then activated as desired, to put down contacts on top of the film, for example.
The output 48 and 50 of the controller 26 are the external trigger and charge voltage inputs of the laser 28, respectively. The controller 26 thus provides the external circuits (which could be implemented in conventional electronics or through microcomputer with analog interface, or interface to a laser control computer) to keep track of which segment is in position in front of the ablation laser beam, and adjust the laser triggering time and pulse energy via the laser charge voltage or variable attenuators.
The laser 28 is thus controlled to have special and temporal characteristics of its optical output pulse, when focused with the aforementioned optics, to ablate materials such as Y2O3, Cuo, Bao, Ba2O3, Cu, Ba, Y, etc. As an example, an energy density of 5 joules/cm2 focused in a 50 nanosecond pulse is adequate for a wide range of materials, including those listed above.
In an alternate embodiment, the components to be ablated may be in the form of a stacked plate assembly rather than on a rotating drum. IN this manner, the edge of the stack may be ablated by a suitably focused single or multiple laser beam(s). By oscillating or reciprocating the stacked assembly and synchronously firing the laser, the desired components can be selectively ablated. If a multiple beam is used on multiple targets simultaneously, the ablated material will appear as multiple plumes and be deposited as a uniformly mixed deposit. Multiple beams may be obtained from a single laser by splitting a single beam into multiple beams, which through attenuators, may be directed end-on to a stacked target structure.
The present invention uniquely uses a high voltage capacitor charge circuit to program each laser pulse for the corresponding target segment, giving the ability to adjust the deposition rate of each segment independently with simple additional circuitry or computer with D/A output. The use of high speed target switching makes feasible the tailoring of a film on an atomic layer basis.
Synchronization dither can be used within each segment time frame to both scan the laser spot over the new surface of the segment and vary the plume angle for wider substrate coverage, when a flat target is used. In the present invention, the pulse beam forms a line on the target where the material is ablated. As shown in FIG. 3, showing a front view of one of the targets 20, the first line 20a formed on the target 20 is formed during the first cycle of drum rotation. The line 20a is formed by one pulse of the laser beam, at a power level determined previously to achieve a desired amount of material ablation. The controller 26, having received a position signal from censor 22, outputs a trigger signal to the laser indicating that it is time to pulse the specific target 20 at its predetermined power level. The trigger timing is such that the next line 20b is formed adjacent the first line in the next cycle. Each subsequent pass results in an additional line spaced from the preceding one, until the last line 20x is formed. Thereafter, the trigger pulse places the next line over the first one 20a, and the sequence is repeated. This is what is meant by "synchronization dither". In effect, a slight delay is added to the trigger pulse timing with each succeeding cycle of drum rotation in order to effect scanning of the target surface.
The invention has potential for application in thin film deposition processes where rapid on-line composition control, including deliberate sharp variation, is needed in making semiconductor devices, optical coatings, and thin film superconductor samples and devices.
In addition to the rapid deposition of superconducting films for research purposes, the present method and apparatus are expected to offer an improved means for the preparation of artificially structured materials. Presently, high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) devices (a structure alternating between vary thin layers of doped and pure silicon) are being prepared by means of molecular beam effusion (MBE) which requires a very high vacuum, i.e., 10-10 torr. This makes the MBE process very expensive due to the amount of time required for bake-out and pump-down. The present invention is expected to provide a means for preparation of the HEMT-type structures rapidly and without the extremely long pump-down period.
While advantageous embodiments have been chosen to illustrate the invention, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications can be made therein without departing from the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.

Project Title: is really violence affecting mexico?
Problem Definition:
Violence in Mexico increased rapidly since former President Felipe Calderon declared war on organized crime. have been 3 or 4 years since this happened and since then more than 47,000 people have died including some of my family and friends, and thereby to mexico tourism decreased and affected the economy of Mexico, particularly in Juarez where most crimes have gone.
Problem Solution:
plan based on the 13 parts of the new president Enrique Pena Nieto is to create an organization against crime and said that "I am convinced that the crime can not be fought with force", also promised to clean up the "holes" that police in Mexico in general has, such as corruption, and police working in some way with organized crime.
Progress to Date:
I created a model in StarLogo TNG which shows an important part, the "fee" that some businesses have requested as payment for protection against other posters in the same area where this business. in the first tests of the model drug agents started as collectors who ask money from some businesses that are in the landspace, more drug dealers, businesses lose more money. less narcos, earn more money but still I have to make adjustments to the model to provide more information acceptable.
Expected Results:
I hope the data from this project are to teach that mexico can press ahead no matter whether organized crime in the streets and continue affecting businesses in Mexico and as I said juarez especially where violence increased considerably.

Kirith Kirin
Meisha Merlin, 2000 - Fiction - 554 pages
Kirith Kirin is like no other fantasy that you have ever read. Jim Grimsley has created a fantasy that could have come right from our world where power and greed can tempt, and sometimes conquer, even the most rightist person and where knowing who your friends and enemies are can be very difficult if not impossible. Yet it is not our world. For in Kirith Kirin's world magic is real, immortals walk the land, and people are sometimes the playthings for the dark arts. The Blue Queen, upon resuming the throne while King Kirith Kirin's eternality is renewed in the Arthen forest, has partnered with a magician of the dark arts. No longer does she need to leave the throne to renew her eternal nature. Swayed by promises of the dark magician, she has claimed the throne forever and is extending her influence to the far corners of the world. Malleable grey clouds, sidewinding wind, and intelligent lightning bolts made the trip across the vast Girdle nearly impossible. Out of nowhere, the Blue Queen's Patrols made haste to kill the boy and the warrior before they could safely reach the deep forest of Arthen. Riding upon two magnificent stallions, one a royal Prince out of Queen Mnemarra, Jessex and his uncle Sivisal reached Arthen despite a deadly storm that reeked of magic. Thus begins Jessex's new life as he enters Arthen and moves into the royal court of Kirith Kirin.

Già ci mancano le famose crepes marocchine di Rachida, la colazione sulla terrazza al sole e le risate in compagnia di Dila la sera al rientro dalle nostre lunghe giornate!
E' stata una breve vacanza ma
Alles hat super geklappt. Die Unterkunft war toll gelegen und auch von innen sehr schön eingerichtet. Das Personal war außerordentlich nett und konnte hilfreiche Tipps über Marrakesch geben. Gerne empfehle ich diese Unterkunft weiter!
Il soggiorno presso il Riad di Leila è stato davvero bello.
Il Riad è molto suggestivo, la camera molto bella e la posizione è assolutamente ottima.
Rachida è stata sempre molto gentile e disponibile
Senza dubbio un posto da consigliare!
Wonderful stay. Lovely Riad. Good Location in the Medina. Nice Hosts :-)
The Riad was a very beautiful place to stay right in the heart of the Medina. It's location is very convenient as it is right next to the Souks and to a few mosques including the Ben Youssef Mosque.
The Riad hospitality was great and they are very attentive and helpful. I definitely suggest having breakfast and tea on their beautiful terrace.
Leila was a great help, even though I did not get to meet her, but she was happy to answer all of my questions. Glad I stayed here and would definitely love to go back.
Our stay at the riad was awesome. We met dila(the night guardian) and rashida(the cook) both of whom were very helpful and nice. I emailed back and forth with Alexandre who was very helpful and set up a driver for us to be picked up from the airport to the door of the riad. The room was very clean and comfortable. The rooftop terrace is lovely. I highly suggest downloading citymaps2go for those heading to Marrakesh. You can use that app offline and use the GPS capabilities to navigate the paths.

I'm Leah originally from Australia I lived for 14 years in Florence, Italy where I still have active contacts. For the past 2 years I have lived in Marrakech, Morocco a vibrant town pulsating in exotic sounds and sites. I love living here; the people, the food, the landscape, the religion, the architecture and the music...
Travel expands our life experience, paradoxically encountering people and places out of our daily routines and comfort zones increases understanding of ourselves and those close to us...
Marrakech is music to the ears!

Are those shrubs suitable?
Hi, I'm so glad to have found this forum!
We live in the inland section of Southern California.
Our climate is close to desert climate. Here's my question:
I would like to add some shrubs to our narrow and small backyard which is all concrete. The planters I have already are 11" high by 11" diameter and are made of plastic.
I would like to place them next to a white vinyl fence which faces south and gets a small amount of shade in the afternoons. I am considering either Podocarpus...or Nadina Domestica �.or Honeysuckle, because I believe that they are easy to grow and fairly drought tolerant. I would also like them to grow about 5-6 foot high.
Does anybody have any suggestions or other ideas?
Thank you in advance for any replies. Ann
I am only familiar with Podocarpus trees which can grow over 50 ft.
11 inches is not very deep for a shrub or vine. 16 to 18 inches is needed. Perhaps nandina would prosper for a few years (5 years?) in that depth. It will require regular watering.
Another benefit of larger containers in hot temperatures is the larger soil mass stays cooler so roots don't get cooked.

Japanese Maple Still in Trouble
I have a relatively young Japanese Maple in my front yard (about 8-10 feet tall). During the freeze about 6 weeks ago, it lost all of its new leaves. Much to my relief, they began coming back with the warmer weather, but lately most of the new leaves appear withered and/or chewed, many of them when they're barely out and still tiny. This has not happened before. What could this be? Can it be fixed? Thanks for any help!
Your answer most likely lies in the condition of the bark at and below the leafing area ..I'd bet if you look it is damaged probabaly at least on one side with maybe some black or grey areas ...if AT ANY point on the trunk the black or grey encircles the whole trunk it is toast ultimatly abovee that point same goes for individual branches at least everything above that area and whatever is still alive will follow what the rest has done in short order ...otherwise you may have a really small tree ( genereic left only if it was grafted and the only untouched part is below the graft or some of a specific cultivatr just above the graft) or if it isn't grafted some at bottom may live... If you like "little trees" keep it if not tourch it... I could be wrong but I doubt it... been there done that with several from freeze ..David

born again & died again
Fly side by side the Bal'ran Imperial Navy as they fight for survival against the Anshari Empire and eventually, a new mysterious enemy with a hunger for crimson blood.
2 comments by Elite222 on Mar 7th, 2012
Hello followers, if there still are any. You know who I am etc etc. But I wish to announce that the mod has been re-worked again. Now going by the name of "Dusk Wars" this mod is about the war between the dreaded Anshari Empire and the player's species. The religious empire known as the Bal'ran Empire. Recently coming out of a golden age the Bal'ran were unprepared for the Anshari. However, an upcoming third entity will even put the Bal'ran even further back to the point of possible extinction.
*Terminal System: Hidden triggers that unlock a specific terminal giving the player outside information based upon current events, technological achievements, incidents etc etc.
*Militarism Style: While still keeping a Freespace like feel the Bal'ran will follow a similar human like military system while still reflecting on their own religious polytheist culture
*Fly as Aliens, not the humans for once
Estimated Missions: 20+
Voice Acting?: Maybe
Is help needed?: As always, yes.
Thank you for those who still watch me.
-Elite 222.

Ochoa stays true to Mexican roots
There is a reason Lorena Ochoa's photo adorns nearly all of the promotional material for this week's Corona Morelia Championship on the LPGA Tour, just as it did earlier this year for the MasterCard Classic.
Ochoa is the face of golf in her native Mexico, which has two tournaments on the LPGA schedule almost solely because of her.
It is a pretty big honor -- and quite a bit of pressure -- for someone who won't even celebrate her 25th birthday until next month. But it is a role she embraces, even at tournaments in the United States, where she seeks out Mexican fans at every event she plays.
"That's what I most enjoy about golf, being Mexican and representing my country, I'm very proud to represent my country," said Ochoa, who leads the LPGA Tour money list. "I share all I do with my people, and every time I go back home, they are waiting for me; and the newspapers and the media, they are always paying attention. I appreciate the support very much, and, you know, when I win, it's for all of them."
Ochoa has done her homeland proud this season, winning three times and earning more than $1.9 million. With six tournaments left, she is in a tight race with veterans Karrie Webb, Annika Sorenstam and Cristie Kerr for all of the tour's top honors. She's done it by adhering to a goal of consistency. Ochoa has 16 top-10 finishes, 14 of which have been in the top five. You can argue that perhaps she should have won even more, something she has chalked up to "a learning experience." But she has not missed a cut, and has emerged as a force.
All the while, she pays homage to her homeland.
Ochoa will often stop by the maintenance building at golf tournaments throughout the tour to meet and greet workers of Mexican descent.
"I like to pay them back a little bit and go talk to them," Ochoa said. "I like to thank them for all their hard work."
For this, Ochoa is revered, although golf is still a work in progress in Mexico.
"Golf is all the way to the bottom, yes," she said. "It's a country where soccer is everything, but we are changing, a little bit of progress, and the future hopefully it will get more time on TV and in the media and have more respect. I think we will have more players in the future; that will help, too, and we are trying to grow all the time.
"Every time I play a tournament in the States, there are always some Mexicans who come and cheer for me with a Mexican flag, and there are a lot of Hispanic people out here. I always represent them and I always want to say thank you to them for the support and hopefully we'll work together and just make it a bigger sport."
Ochoa began playing golf at age 5, winning her first national tournament when she was 7. She then captured five consecutive junior world championships between the ages of 8 and 13, while also competing in such other sports as tennis, swimming and running.
"When I was about 12, my dad came to me and said you should pick only one sport so you can do it well," she said. "Just because of what I did with golf, I didn't have a hard time picking that I wanted to play golf."
Ochoa, who is from Guadalajara and still makes that her home, moved to the United States so that she could play college golf, where she won 12 of her 20 starts while playing at the University of Arizona. She turned pro after two seasons, and was rookie of the year and No. 1 money winner on the Futures Tour in 2002.
She has been on the LPGA Tour ever since, doubling her victory total during this current breakthrough campaign.
"I think this has been for me a great year because I've played consistent golf," she said. "For me, that was the goal at the beginning of the year, just to be consistent. It really helped me, just my mind-set, to be motivated every week."
The reason? These tournaments give the top players three fewer reasons to play someplace else.
If they were regular tournaments with 36-hole cuts and smaller purses, not all of the players would sign up. And that means maybe this week's Greensboro event or next week's tournament in Las Vegas would attract a few more top-ranked players.
The same will be true next year, when the first two world events will be played four weeks apart. The three tournaments in between -- all in Florida -- can't help but suffer.
As it stands now, a top player on the PGA Tour next year can sign up for the Mercedes Benz Championship, the three WGC events, the four major championships, the Players Championship, the three FedEx playoff events and the Tour Championship and hardly have to tee it up anywhere else. Add some other marquee tournaments such as Pebble Beach, Bay Hill, the Memorial, the Colonial ... and a player's schedule is set.
And that's not so good for everybody else, who count on seeing some of the top players once in awhile.
|Got a question about the PGA Tour? Ask ESPN.com golf writer Bob Harig, who will answer some inquiries in his column each week.
Q. Other than the Ryder Cup, has Sergio Garcia ever won an event when Tiger was also playing?
A. Garcia has won six times on the PGA Tour, and three times he has done so with Woods in the field: the 2001 Buick Classic (Woods tied for 16th), the 2002 Mercedes Championships (tied for 10th) and the 2004 Byron Nelson Championship (tied for fourth). Garcia has also won six times on the European Tour, but Woods was in none of those events.
Q. How is Tim Mickelson able to coach at a major college and still be an amateur?
A. The rules of amateur status allow an employee of an educational institution to coach or teach golf and remain an amateur, as long as teaching is less than 50 percent of his total time as an employee.

Has anyone used or known about Porcelanosa's venice marfil or mar
I am considering using Porcelanosa's 12"x23" venice marfil and marmol crema for wall tiles of my shower stall and tub/shower. Could anyone please share your experience if you used the tiles or know about them?
Any input or sharing of experience is greatly appreciated.
I am in the middle of a bathroom remodel. I chose Porcelanosa's Carrara Blanco for floor and walls. It has not been installed, yet, but I can tell you what little experience I have had, so far.
I purchased full size samples before deciding. They were shipped promptly and arrived well packed. The tile is substantial. When I ordered, Lilian, in the Boston showroom, was very helpful. Not so much the folks in the Greenwich, CT showroom.
Order was, again, shipped promptly and arrived undamaged. The one thing Lilian did tell me was that if I used Porcelanosa's thinset it would be guaranteed for life.
They should be ready to set the tile in the next week or two. If there is something specific you would like to know just ask and I will try to help.

I have to say Hasbro....Mattel has only supplied a few lines that I played with as a kid, and Hasbro the rest (or Hasbro now owns the old companies).
But Ljn, Hasbro, Playmates, Kenner (now owned by Hasbro), Mattel, Tonka (also owned by Hasbro) have always been good companies with good toys.
Bandai however....not so much.
And at the moment, Mattel only supplies me with 2 lines out of all I collect....MOTUC & Hot Wheels, and I only buy a few HW here and there....Hasbro 99% of the rest with Playmates the other 1% for the TMNT.

Best grapes (Any Heirloom?) for the Los Angeles region?
I'm looking to plant at least a half dozen varieties as I've got a long fence line to cover. While I've found standards like Flame and Thompson seedless at various nurseries, I prefer to grow things that I can't typically buy.
So who's got local success stories? And where do you buy your seedlings?
Thanks in advance!
There's a great thread on this in the Fruit & Orchards Forum here: http://forums2.gardenweb.com/forums/load/fruit/msg0815540430144.html
I know that my sister in Oceanside has got Summer Royal and Princess (both mentioned in this thread) that have escaped the fence and are growing rampantly across her back hillbank and are absolutely delicious. So perhaps those two might be a good start for you.
Patty S.
You may be interested in Vitis girdiana (southern california grape also known as desert wild grape). Its native to Southern California, its very vigorous and one of the most drought tolerant grapes out there. You can use it as a great disease resistant and drought tolerant grating stock. I have a few plants of it, however the fruit eating quality is sub par due to the size of the grapes and its seed. Potential for grafting rootstock is excellent though.
Not sure where you are in Los Angeles, but I have tried about 7 varieties in the San Fernando Valley, and most struggle severely (with survivable fruit, that is... plants do fine) in summer. Only variety that reliably makes good fruit for me when it's 110F out is Concord Grape... Fantasy, Flame, and most other dark fruits suffer and split in summer. Thompson's seedlings looks hopeful and this year looks like a good crop coming up.. however, it hasn't gotten hot yet... so I'll let you know.

Since my HG cleanser (Neutrogena Rapid Clear Oil-Control Foaming) is rarely to be found anymore, I'm always looking for a good alternative. This does the job...it cleanses without drying out my face too much as long as I use lukewarm water. They've toned the scent way down since I was in high school, so using it no longer reminds me of being an awkward teenager. I just...really don't love it he way I do the Rapid Clear, especially since I think it may be clogging some of the pores around my nose/at the tops of my cheeks.

Absolutely the worst cleanser I have ever used. It sure does get deep down into your pores... And CLOGS them. I used another cleanser before this and my face was super clear and supple and glowy, but then I ran out and found this tucked away in my cupboard. After using it I quickly remembered why I stopped using it before. I was covered in acne within the day.terrible terrible terrible. Do NOT buy.

This was very drying even if you have oily skin it will move your skins natural oils to the point were it'll leave white dry patches on skin that look like powder. The price is a bit pricey while Its sort of not worth it. By its cleaning effects I'd say its not that bad it's okay.

For the low cost, this cleanser delivers a great cleaning for my skin. I use a cleansing towelette to take off my make up first, but I've also used just the cleanser and it really works.

I was actually excited to start this product. I have oily skin and this sounded like the perfect cleanser. I tried it on at night, next morning my face was super dry and itchy!! Tried it one more time and it got worse! Not buying again.... :(
(I've started aveeno ultra calming foaming cleanser, and I love it)

I love how this removes all of my makeup while leaving my skin soft and smooth. Because the cleanser doesn't have oil or alcohol added, my skin remains balanced.
The cleanser comes in gel form, and lathers into soft foam. It does have a faint scent, but nothing obtrusive or noticeable; it smells like Johnson & Johnson baby shampoo, but much lighter.
This retails for under $5 at Target, and I can see myself continuously repurchasing this unless my skin changes drastically.

Even though it says for combo/oily skin, I decided to try it because I couldn't find my other cleanser and it was the only one in the washroom. It's an orange gel that's slightly on the thick side and lathers up quite well. I find that it removes my makeup (even waterproof) quite decently. My skin does feel a little tight but I always tone and moisturize after I wash my face so I don't find it too much of a problem. I would definitely repurchase this again more so because it can remove my makeup effectively.

I like this. It dries my skin a bit but for my oily ass summer skin its perfect. I use it after an exfoliant and it makes my skin so nice and unclogged

Rain hampers ND small grains harvest
FARGO (AP) -- Widespread rain over the past week has hampered the harvest in North Dakota.
The Agriculture Department says in its weekly crop and weather report that the seeding of spring wheat, durum wheat and oats remains behind the average pace, though the barley harvest is nearly complete.
Sugar beets are 9 percent lifted, compared with 4 percent last year and on average.

WASHINGTON, DC – House Energy and Commerce Republican leaders late last week requested the Food and Drug Administration provide internal documents related to the deadly meningitis outbreak by November 30, 2012.
Excerpt: In order to effectively and responsibly address the question of clarifying or enhancing FDA's authority over compounding pharmacies, the committee must identify what happened at the New England Compounding Center (NECC), and why FDA did not use its authority to take enforcement action against NECC until October 2012, after the meningitis outbreak.
Excerpt: We write to express our strong opposition to certain provisions relating to the Department of Energy's nuclear defense and related programs in the House-passed national defense authorization bill.
WASHINGTON, DC – The Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee yesterday held a hearing to discuss the deadly meningitis outbreak, which has resulted in 32 deaths and sickened hundreds across the country. Three folks from Marion County, Florida have died, and one victim lived right up the street from me.

This is part two of four of a series on physical infrastructure in the Pagan community. In this blog post I am focusing on Pagan bookstores and related businesses. For the sake of transparency and disclosure, I'll say that I am the co-owner of a metaphysical bookstore (Bell, Book, & Candle in Dover, De) so I do have a personal interest in this matter. I will also say that it is a labor of love and that there are any number of other ways that I could make a better living with much less work. If my partner Jim, did not have a good job with benefits, I would never have considered a metaphysical store as a reasonable option for myself. This is an artifact of the often strained relationship that the Pagan community has with money and finances. The ambivalence and misgivings related to money and material goods within our community will be a continuing thread throughout this series of blogs....
I really love that you point out how important Pagan bookstores are to people who don't belong to groups. I love being able to att

Snake story
fortunately not mine! and not in OK!! :)
Here is a link that might be useful: 15 foot black snake
Lisa, Well that is creepy. I guarantee you if I saw a snake that size in my yard, I'd either pass out from the shock of it or would have a heart attack. Yikes!
When I clicked on this thread, I was relieved that the first ones I read were "fortunately not mine".
Earlier this week, I had another small snake in the garden. I'm seeing many more so much earlier than usual. I don't know necessarily think that means there is more of them, but rather maybe just that they are more active earlier because it warmed up earlier.
Brenda, He did call for help and no one would help him....it is a natural animal in its natural habitat...blah, blah, blah...they said. I understand that, but who wants a snake that big in their yard?
Here where I live, everyone who finds a big snake near their house or barn tends to shoot that sucker, especially if they have poultry or small animals.
People keep exotic reptiles and sometimes they get loose. If it really is that big it might be something other than a black snake. If it is a black snake I would think it would be a curiosity and of interest for display. I don't hurt blacksnakes but I wouldn't want one that big around. I have tangled with them on my porch when they were after swallows over my porch light. They don't run away but get very nasty when you try to chase them with a broom. I would not want a three year old meeting up with it. I was scared by a snake when I was four and remember thinking every little hole in the ground had a snake hiding in it.

Nike Sportswear Holiday 2014 Sneakerboot Collection by Brendan Dunne 29 Comments
Got damn that's a lot of 3M.......
October 11, 2013 BY John Kim / 1
The Nike WMNS Dunk Sky Hi SneakerBoot is a silhouette that extends the already high hitting form of the popular Nike WMNS Dunk Sky Hi wedge sneaker. Making them stand out even more is this new reflective silver colorway, which lets a 3M treatment take over the upper (Save for that quilted black leather that's on the collar). Unfortunately this one photo doesn't give us a good idea of what they look like with the flash on, so this is another one of those instances where you've got to use your imagination.

I'm pretty much an easy going type who likes to divide my social and alone time pretty evenly. A normal day while traveling alone includes cooking breakfast before heading out during the day until the early evening when I usually cook my own dinner and retire early for a movie. One of my favorite things in life is to fall asleep at night without setting an alarm for the following morning :)
