L'allegro With the Mark Morris Dance CompanySeries Website »
Episode Guide »
Merriment and Milton are hardly synonymous, but the poet who penned Paradise Lost also inspired Handel's L'Allegro, il Penseroso ed il Moderato, which concludes "Mirth, with thee we mean to live." Choreographer Mark Morris garnered international fame for this 1988 "work of genius" (The New York Times) set to Handel's Baroque masterpiece, in which a colorful array of dancers embodies the ecstasy of art that transforms.

Trying to determine if this is mint rust
Ben_EAugust 3, 2012
We have a mint plant in the back yard of the house we're renting. Earlier this year, I noticed that the leaves had yellow spots on them. I did some searching around the internet, and, of course, the first thing I came upon was mint rust info. So, I begrudgingly tore and cut the plants down. I let them grow back, to see if they would come back healthy, but, sure enough, the spots are still there. Before I take a more permanent step, I wanted to verify that it is, indeed, mint rust. I'm not sure at this point. I have yet to see any pustules at all or anything actually protruding from the leaves. It has just been these yellow spots as seen in the picture. Thoughts?

The note on the door said pardon the renovation, it was obvious the room had not been inspected before they released it to me. After I turned on the water to the toilet and sink in the bathroom, I was able to use the facilities. The water to the kitchenette sink could not be turned on due to a crappy plumbing installation. Missing light bulbs should have also been caught before the room was released. The carpet contractors were very noisy all hours of the night installing the hall carpet thus not allowing for a peaceful sleep. They offered two little glasses of wine between 5:30 pm and 7:00 pm but had no bar. The offered no shuttle anywhere. Exercise room had 2 unplugged treadmills pushed against the wall. Overall experience not good!

Dom Is Different - In A Good Way
05/15/07 at 08:42 AM ET | Comments (0)
from Steve Simmons of the Toronto Sun,
"Dom's different. I talked to Ritch Winter (Hasek's agent) and he said Dom wants to finish his career on the ice," Holland said. "That was really important to him, finishing on his terms."
The terms in this series have confounded the opposition Ducks. They have outplayed and out-chanced the Wings through the first two games in Detroit but have shot wide or high often on quality scoring opportunities, the ones Hasek hasn't stopped.
"That's what Dom does to people," said Chris Chelios, another Red Wing veteran playing on the cheap. "He intimidates the other team. He gets in their head. Then they starting thinking they have to be perfect. Once he gets them thinking, he's got them."

Sens On The Verge Of Something Great
05/15/07 at 08:36 AM ET | Comments (0)
from Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun,
They are on the verge of living the dream and going to the Stanley Cup final for the first time in team history with a series victory over the Buffalo Sabres and holding a 2-0 lead in the East final going into Game 3 last night at Scotiabank Place.
"They've had to go through some tough times along the way and I'm sure that's toughened them up a little," said former Red Wings captain Steve Yzerman, who as GM led Canada to a gold medal at the world championship in Moscow. "There's no question that can happen to you. Sometimes you have to go through tough times before you can have success. You develop more of an edge and you get stronger. Every team goes through it and it takes hard to work to get out of it."

Nothing Like OT
05/15/07 at 08:32 AM ET | Comments (0)
from the Press Enterprise,
Unlike the regular season, which gives teams five minutes of ice time to settle a tie before going to the one-on-one shootout, postseason hockey eschews the gimmicky ending.
First team to score, unlimited time to finish, makes for passionate competition. Players can't take a second off. Spectators hang in suspended angst.
In baseball, you've got at least 15 seconds between pitches to anticipate a game-ending hit, and maybe 15 minutes if a rally is building and pitchers are being shuffled in and out.
In football, you start anticipating an overtime outcome with the coin-flip winner. The team that gets the ball first often drives for 10 minutes and boots a three-pointer.
Hockey? Possession changes every few seconds. Every shot stops the breath of 18,000 spectators.

Thank You Bill Wirtz
05/15/07 at 12:10 AM ET | Comments (0)
from The Maven,
• Chris Pronger has a legit gripe that J.S. Giguere gets the short end of the publicity stick compared to Eastern goaltenders. "East coast writers only want to talk about us (Ducks) when we're playing in the East," says the ace defenseman. "Dominik Hasek gets a lot of press because he plays in Detroit."
• Not enough credit has gone to Bill Wirtz and Windsor attorney Patrick Ducharme for the behind-the-scenes work that helped expose union mismanagement, especially as it related to funds owed such players as Bob Probert, Denis Savard and Jeremy Roenick. Persistent queries on behalf of Ducharme's clients to Saskin received nebulous answers. Nonetheless, Ducharme and Wirtz persisted when others would have thrown up their hands in frustration.

05/14/07 at 11:30 PM ET | Comments (0)
Q. Talk about the struggles five-on-five? Is it what they're doing?
COACH MIKE BABCOCK: No. They've been good. I think you always got to give the other team credit. We're good teams. Our power play and penalty kill has been good. Dom has been good. We haven't been very good five-on-five. They've been better than us in that area. Yet in saying that, I think for the first 25 minutes of the game last night, they were better than us. Then I thought for the next 35, everything was pretty even. I thought they were better than us again in overtime.
When you're playing good teams, there's always going to be momentum swings in the game. You just want yours to be longer than theirs. I didn't like our start last night. For whatever reason, they were able to establish a physical game early. We didn't engage right I way. It took us a long time, I thought, to engage physically in the game and get involved.

Bertuzzi Understands
05/14/07 at 11:25 PM ET | Comments (0)
from the CP via the CBC,
Todd Bertuzzi sounds like a man who finally gets it.
The insolence is gone. So is the arrogance and brooding. Instead of carrying a chip on his shoulder, Bertuzzi seems happy to have caught the life raft the Detroit Red Wings have tossed him and his NHL career.
"I'm very fortune to be in the position I'm in," Bertuzzi said Monday about being involved in the chase for the Stanley Cup. "When you're in this position you want to make sure you take full advantage of it and enjoy it. You never know when you're going to be back."

Ducks Ready For Wings

from the Toronto Star,
It may just be that those Red Wings fans who have missed playoff action at the Joe Louis Arena for eight games in a row will show up at the Honda Centre, otherwise known as the Duck Pond, in Anaheim on Tuesday.
That's the fear of Ducks goalie Jean-Sebastien Giguere.
"There's a lot of Detroit fans in Anaheim," says Giguere. "It's going to be really loud in that building, it's going to be really interesting.

Kopecky In For Wings
05/14/07 at 09:13 PM ET | Comments (0)
via the Detroit Free Press,
Red Wings forward Kyle Calder will be benched for Game 3 on Tuesday in favor of Tomas Kopecky.
Calder hasn't seen much ice time in the first two games against Anaheim, playing only 7:57 minutes in the first two games of the Western Conference finals. He has only one point this postseason, an assist in Game 5 against Calgary in the first round of the playoffs.
Kopecky hasn't played since Dec. 14, when he suffered a broken collarbone against the Chicago Blackhawks.

More Interference In The West
05/14/07 at 09:09 PM ET | Comments (0)
from Darren Pang at Panger's Blog,
I am working alongside Florida Panthers Play-by-Play voice, Dave Strader. He had some interesting views on the way the West has been officiated and how the standard has been tolerated. Many of us believe that there is way more interference and holding up in the West when compared to the East. It will be interesting to see how the adjustments will be made, if at all, when the Stanley Cup finals begin. The East could end up getting a plethora of powerplays!

A method for chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) of a shallow trench isolation (STI) structure employs a sequence of slurry polishes. In the first step the substrate is polished with either silica-based slurry or diluted ceria-based slurry. The first polishing is at a higher removal rate than the second polishing step. The polishing proceeds with some planarization but does not expose the polish stop layer. After partial planarization, the high selectivity slurry was used to complete the process. Improved throughput, lower defects and good within wafer uniformity are achieved.

1. Field of Invention
This invention is directed to a method of chemical mechanical polishing and more particularly for planarizing shallow trench isolation or similar structures for integrated circuits.
2. Description of Related Art
Shallow trench isolation (STI) structures are formed between field effect transistors in an integrated circuit to prevent carriers such as electrons from drifting between adjacent device elements. The fabrication of STI structures involves photolithography to form the trench structures followed by filling of the trenches with insulators. Planarization of the filled trenches is usually accomplished by chemical mechanical polishing (CMP). The CMP process uses chemical etchants and abrasives in the form of aqueous slurries to polish the preliminary STI structures. The CMP process is not without throughput issues with larger diameter wafers or defect concerns such as shallow dishes from overpolishing, microscratches or across the wafer non-uniformity. The importance of overcoming some of the deficiencies or cost factors is evidenced by the technology developments directed to the subject as noted in the patent literature.
U.S. Pat. No. 6,365,520 (Rhoades et al) comprises CMP slurry for planarization of STI based on a mixture of two ranges of particle sizes.
U.S. Pat. No. 6,261,158 (Holland et al ) describes a two step CMP process for planarizing metal interconnects with the imposition of a cleansing/neutralization step as intermediate between stages of CMP.
U.S. Pat. No. 6,234,877 (Koos et al) provides a method of controlling the pH of the slurry composition by an intermediate cleansing rinse of the polishing pads with a diluting solution or a buffered solution.
U.S. Pat. No. 6,207,535 (Lee et al) teaches the thermal hardening of a portion of a third oxide layer prior to CMP of that layer in a STI fabrication process.
U.S. Pat. No. 6,190,999 (Hung et al) relates to a STI structure formed by a sequence of film depositions and the intermediate removal of the silicon nitride hard masking layer to expose the pad oxide layer. An insulating layer is formed over the trench; the pad oxide layer then acts as a polishing stop for planarizing the insulating layer.
U.S. Pat. No. 6,143,662 (Rhoades et al) describes for STI planarization a method of using a CMP slurry mixture of abrasive particles having a mean diameter of between 2 and 30 nm and larger abrasive particles having a mean diameter between 2 and 10 times the mean diameter of the small abrasive particles.
U.S. Pat. No. 6,117,748 (Lou et al) describes a dishing-free process for STI consisting of a two-step CMP with an oxide slurry followed by a poly slurry that stops at the surface of the nitride layer.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,652,177 (Pan) encompasses the sequences of forming a field isolation region by depositing an insulating layer, a polysilicon layer, and a nitride layer over a substrate followed by the lithographic patterning and etching of the silicon and nitride layers over the insulating layer. The nitride layer is removed prior to CMP and the polysilicon layer acts as a polishing stop.
It is the object of this invention to provide a method of CMP of STI structures that achieves high throughput.
It is another object of this invention to provide a method of CMP of STI structures that achieves low slurry consumption.
It is a further object of this invention to provide a two-step method of CMP of STI structures that achieves better within wafer uniformity and lower levels of scratching than a single CMP step.
In accordance with the foregoing and other objectives of this present invention, a method is provided for the planarization and formation of STI structures. A method for chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) of a shallow trench isolation (STI) structure employs a sequence of slurry polishes.
In accordance with this method, initial slurry is used to planarize some of the topography without silicon nitride exposure. In the first step the substrate is polished with either silica-based slurry or diluted ceria-based slurry. Then, high selectivity slurry was used for the rest of the CMP process.
The first polishing process is at a higher removal rate than the second polishing step. The polishing proceeds with some planarization but does not expose the silicon nitride. After partial planarization, the high selectivity slurry was used to complete the process. Improved throughput, lower slurry consumption, a reduction in defects and good within wafer uniformity are achieved.
This invention relates to a semiconductor fabrication, and more particularly to a method for fabricating a STI structure to prevent microscratches from occurring on the STI structure during a chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process. STI structures are described in Hung et al, U.S. Pat. No. 6,190,999 and Rhoades et al, U.S. Pat. No. 6,143,662 and are incorporated as references herein.
The CMP process is one of planarization technologies as described in Hung et al by making use of slurry, which is a chemical reagent, to chemically and mechanically polish the uneven surface of a deposited oxide layer so as to achieve a planarization purpose. Slurry contains a huge number of fine grinding particles with a dimension of about 0.1�0.2 microns. The grinding particles compose a good abrasive. A rotating holder holds the wafer on the backside. The front surface is pushed onto a polishing pad, which is held by a rotating polishing table. Slurry is provided on the contact surface between the polishing pad and the front surface of the wafer. Since they are rotated, the polishing purpose is achieved. The ingredient of slurry is different for a different material to be polished.
During the CMP process, the fine grinding particles may cause a microscratch on a soft material. The microscratch of a softer silicon dioxide layer can be caused by, for example as noted by Hung et al, the harder silicon nitride particles being injected into the slurry composition.
In the chemical mechanical polishing of these patterned substrates, as noted in U.S. Pat. No. 6,143,662, which is incorporated as reference herein, the local polish rate is known to be dependent on the feature size and the local pattern density. Small isolated structures are removed much more quickly than large structures or densely packed small structures. For this reason, in order to produce a planarized integrated circuit structure, there is a narrow process window, i.e., a small range, of effective polishing times. As a result, it is difficult to produce integrated circuit structures without having some regions which are underpolished and/or overpolished by the CMP process. Underpolishing is characterized by incomplete removal of the silicon dioxide overlying the silicon nitride and prevents the silicon nitride from being properly etched in later process steps. Overpolishing is characterized by the complete removal of the silicon nitride at certain locations and subsequent damage to the silicon wafer at these locations. Underpolishing and overpolishing both result in poor device performance.
One type of CMP slurry currently used as noted in U.S. Pat. No. 6,143,662 in shallow trench isolation methods has high selectivity such that the silicon dioxide is removed at a much faster rate than the underlying silicon nitride. These slurries have proven to be effective in removing a blanket silicon dioxide layer deposited over a blanket silicon nitride layer without significantly polishing the silicon nitride layer. However, there is a significant difference between polishing blanket films and patterned wafers. Specifically, the selectivity of the slurry to nitride is significantly different on patterned wafers due to the concentration of force on small isolated features during the CMP process. As a result, these small isolated features are prone to being overpolished even though other features on the same wafer can be at the desired level or even underpolished. Therefore, it is difficult to produce a patterned substrate having uniform silicon nitride thickness over the surface of the substrate. When the pattern density is high the polish time can be very long (10 minutes per wafer). This long polish time not only impacts throughput and slurry consumption but also deteriorates within wafer uniformity and defects due to microscatches. The basic requirements for STI CMP are a high removal rate, good within wafer uniformity, cessation of planarization before silicon nitride is exposed, and a minimal amount of scratches. Direct polish with ceria-based high selectivity slurry (HSS) for STI CMP can achieve a within die uniformity superior to that of silica-based slurry with reverse tone etch. However HSS in CMP is sensitive to pattern density of the design layout. When the polish time is long (�10 min wafer), the long polish time not only impacts throughput and slurry consumption but also deteriorates within wafer uniformity and defect scratch performance. What is needed is a process that increases removal rate without sacrificing within wafer uniformity.
This invention relates to a semiconductor fabrication, and more particularly to a method for fabricating a STI structure, which reduces the level of microscratches from occurring on the STI structure during a CMP process and in a cost effective manner.
The integrated circuit structure with reference to
The chemical mechanical polishing slurries used in this invention include small abrasive particles of silica, alumina, titania, germania, and ceria, Preferably the small abrasive particles are either silica or ceria. Typical silica-based slurry consists of a range of between 10% and 20% silica by wt. and the water content ranges between 80% and 90% by wt. A typical pad material is polyurethane and the pad pressure is in the range of 1 to 10 lbs/sq. inch. The rotation speed ranges between 50 rpm to 130 rpm. An initial stage of planarization as practiced in this invention is shown in
A STI structure consisting of silicon dioxide coated over a silicon nitride stop layer was polished with a HSS ceria-based slurry to a stage as depicted in
The uniformity of oxide removal drops quickly (
Direct polish with a HSS was found to provide better within die oxide step height uniformity after STI CMP than a low selectivity polish; however, the polish time was much longer with HSS especially with high pattern density. Thus the long polish time was found to lead to the following issues: 1.Low throughput, 2.High slurry consumption, 3. Poor with wafer uniformity, and 4. More scratches.
To improve and overcome these deficiencies a staged CMP process was introduced. The structure to be planarized is polished in a first polishing step by CMP using a first slurry. The first slurry is either a silica-based slurry or a diluted ceria-based slurry. The diluted ceria-based slurry has a composition ranging from 0.5 wt % to 1.0 wt % ceria. The first polishing step continues until partial planarization is achieved, but the stop layer is not exposed. In a second polishing step, a second high selectivity slurry is used to complete planarization. The second slurry is a concentrated ceria-based slurry composition ranging from 1.0 wt. % to 2.0 wt. % ceria.
The process of the present invention is shown in the following example.
A STI structure was polished with silica-based slurry until the surface topography was more or less planarized, as shown in
A STI structure was polished with diluted HSS ceria-based slurry until the surface topography was more or less planarized, as shown in
The key advantages of the present invention are the improvement in throughput, lower slurry consumption, improved within wafer uniformity, and reduced microscratches. The present invention has been particularly described with respect to STI structure; it is understood by those skilled in the art that one can also apply the sequence of polishing steps of the preferred embodiments to other patterned layers and configurations without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.

A capacitive detector for absolute pressure, which comprises a base and a stationary capacitor plate (7) attached onto the base (3). An aneroid capsule (4) is arranged in connection with the base (3) and provided with a mobile capacitor plate area (5, 6) directed towards the base (3) and changing its distance from the stationary capacitor plate (7) by the effect of pressure. A silicon plate (2) is attached onto the base and has membrane-like middle portion (5, 6) acting as a mobile capacitor plate. A plate structure (1) is attached hermetically onto the silicon plate (2) such that the space of the aneroid capsule (4) is located between the plate structure (1) and the silicon plate (2).
1. A capacitive detector for the measurement of the absolute pressure of a medium, which comprises:
a first insulating plate functioning as a base;
a stationary capacitor plate attached onto said first insulating plate;
a silicon plate attached onto said first insulating plate and having a thin, membrane-like middle portion functioning as a mobile capacitor plate and defining a chamber between itself and said first insulating plate, and a channel allowing free entrance of the medium into said chamber;
a second insultating plate attached hermetically onto said silicon plate so as to define an aneroid capsule between itself and said membrane-like middle portion, the distance of said membrane-like middle portion from said stationary capacitor plate being a function of the absolute pressure to be measured;

a second terminal arranged outside said silicon plate; and
a conductor electrically connecting said second terminal with said stationary capacitor plate through said channel.

The present invention is concerned with a capacitive detector for measuring the absolute pressure of a medium.
In a capacitive pressure detector, the difference in pressure causes a deflection of an elastic membrane and changes the distance of a capacitor plate attached to the membrane from a stationary capacitor plate attached to the frame of the apparatus or from a mobile plate attached to a second membrane. The movement can be connected to the plates either so that an increase in pressure spares the plates further from each other or so that the increase brings the plates closer to each other.
If the distance of movement of the plate is proportional to the pressure, the sensitivity to pressure of the capacitance of the detector is higher at a pressure at which the plates are closer to each other as compared with a pressure at which they are more distant from each other. This circumstance has been made use of in pressure detectors operating within a wide range of pressure by arranging that the plates are closest to each other at a low pressure and become more distant from each other when the pressure increases.
FIGS. 1 and 2 show prior-art embodiments of such a pressure detector construction. In FIG. 1, the capacitor plates are placed outside the aneroid capsule, in FIG. 2 inside the capsule.
In respect of the prior-art technology, reference should be made to the following publications:

As is well known, miniaturized capacitive pressure detectors may also be made of silicon and glass by making use of micro-photolithography and etching method (cited paper [1]). In the cited paper [2], a detector for absolute pressure is described in which the capacitor plates are placed inside the aneroid capsule and approach each other when the pressure increases.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a detector for absolute pressure which, being accomplished by means of the manufacturing technique described in the cited papers [1] to [6], operates in the way of the constructions shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.
According to the invention, this advantageous construction can be achieved by means of a detector which is made as follows:
it comprises two glass plates and of a silicon plate fitted between them,
the silicon and glass plates have been processed so that on one side of the silicon plate an aneroid capsule is formed, and on the other side an air-insulated capacitor,
one of the glass plates carries a stationary capacitor plate,
the other glass plate closes the aneroid capsule, and
the silicon plate is provided with a membrane-like thinner area, which is deflected by the effect of pressure and to which the mobile capacitor plate is connected.
More specifically, the detector in accordance with the invention includes a channel in the silicon plate which receives a conductor electrically connecting a terminal with the stationary capacitor plate.
By means of the invention, remarkable advantages are obtained. Thus, as compared with the construction of the cited paper [2],
a higher sensitivity is obtained at low pressures,
the volume of the aneroid capsule is larger (the distance between the capacitor plates is typically about 1/100 of the depth of the basin),
no passing of conductors out of the vacuum capsule is required.
On the other hand, which is achieved as compared with the conventional constructions of FIGS. 1 and 2 is:
small size,
more stable materials,
rapid response,
little internal differences in temperature, and
suitability for mass production.
The invention will be examined in the following in more detail with the aid of the exemplifying embodiments in accordance with the attached drawing FIGS. 3 to 5.
FIG. 3a is a sectional side view of a detector in accordance with the invention.
FIG. 3b shows the detector shown in FIG. 3a as a section along the plane A--A.
FIG. 4 is a sectional side view of a second detector in accordance with the invention.
FIG. 5 is a sectional side view of a third detector in accordance with the invention.
When a detector for absolute pressure with a wide range of pressure is to be manufactured, the movement of the plates must be made opposite to that described in the cited paper [2]. FIGS. 3a and 3b illustrate such a construction of a pressure detector. The detector comprises a glass plate 1, a silicon plate 2 and a glass plate 3. The components are joined together, e.g., by means of the method in accordance with the cited paper [6]. At one side, a basin 4 has been prepared by etching into the silicon plate 2, which basin has been covered by a glass plate 1 in a vacuum and closed hermetically. The basin 4 closed by means of the glass plate 1 constitutes the aneroid capsule of the pressure detector.
The other side of the silicon plate 2 has also been worked so that a membrane portion 5 with a thicker middle portion 6 has formed. The membrane portion 5 is sensitive to pressure, and the middle portion 6 acts as the mobile capacitor plate.
On the glass plate 3 there is a stationary capacitor plate 7, which has been formed by depositing a thin metal film onto the glass plate and by patterning the said film. The area 7 is electrically connected to the terminal 10 by means of a conductor 12. The other terminal 11 is in conductive contact with the silicon plate 2. The conductor 12 passes through a channel 9 machined into the silicon plate 2, along which channel the pressure to be measured can act upon the membrane 5. The areas 10, 11 and 12 are prepared in the same way as the area 7.
The capacitance sensitive to pressure is formed between the middle part 6 and the plate 7 across the air gap 8. It can be measured electrically across the terminals 10 and 11 or the conductors connected to them.
Typical dimensions of the detector are 4 mm�6 mm�2.5 mm. The thickness of the membrane 5 is 10 to 100 μm. The width of the air gap 8 is 1 to 10 μm. The area of the capacitor plates 6 and 7 is 1 to 10 mm2.
In the alternative constructions shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, reference numerals analogical to those used in FIGS. 3a and 3b are used.
In the construction of FIG. 4, the rigid middle part 6 has been omitted, whereby the unified membrane part 5 functions as a capacitor plate.
FIG. 5 shows a modification of the construction of FIGS. 3a and 3b, in which modification the basin 4 of the aneroid capsule and the air gap 8 have been worked into the glass plates 1 and 3 instead of the silicon plate 2.
Within the scope of the invention, it is also possible to conceive other solutions differing from the exemplifying embodiments described above. Thus, for example, it is also possible either to work the basin 4 into the glass plate 1 and the air gap into the silicon plate 8, or the basin 4 into the silicon plate 2 and the air gap into the glass plate 3.

Fire in the Sky
'Ball of fire' over Malta may have been a shooting star
Juan Ameen
Times of Malta

Times of Malta
Thu, 06 Dec 2012 15:02 UTC
The bright yellowish ball was seen and caught on video and camera by many, who uploaded the images on social network sites and sent them to timesofmalta.com.
Theories about the phenomenon posted on The Times website ranged from space debris to a missile. Several witnesses described it as a "ball of fire".
Amateur astronomer David Pace said the object was possibly a fireball - a large shooting star trailing flames. He said he had spoken to fellow astronomers who suggested it could have formed part of the Quadrantid Meteor Shower.
The Quadrantids generally start on December 28 and end on January 7, with the peak reached during the morning hours of January 3 and 4. The Quadrantids are barely detectable at the beginning and end of this period but observers in the Northern Hemisphere can see between 10 and 60 meteors per hour.
Although Mr Pace said it was not normal to see a meteor shower from the Quadrantids, a shooting star could have gone astray. A reader of The Times called in to say she had seen something similar two Sundays ago. "At first I thought it was a fireball but then when we looked closely with binoculars, it looked like a hot air balloon. You could closely make out the flame and the outline of the basket," she said.

Sure, at two hours and 19 minutes, it's one of the shorter Oscar-hungry opuses offered up by this season's slew of auteurs. But suspense thrillers typically keep the plot and players on a much tighter leash -- and for good reason. It makes it easier to grab the protagonist and the audience by the short hairs and knot them into macramé at a moment's notice. But Minghella has gone the other way, crafting an ambitiously leisured and layered work. The film unfolds as much like a five-act Shakespearean tragedy as like a Hitchcockian tale of intrigue. The combination sets up an enthralling character study, but ultimately at the expense of the final goose to the underpants.
Minghella stocks his Ripley with more characters, plot, and overt homoeroticism than appeared in either director René Clément's coolly honed 1960 version, Plein Soleil (Purple Noon), or even the original Patricia Highsmith novel, though the basics are all still there. It's the late '50s, and young Tom Ripley (Matt Damon) finds himself hired by wealthy Mr. Greenleaf to bring his ne'er-do-well son, Dickie (Jude Law), back to America. However, Dickie is thoroughly enjoying la dolce vita on the coast of Italy with new girlfriend Marge (Gwyneth Paltrow) and other slack-happy jet-setters and has no intention of going back. As soon as Dickie provides Ripley a taste of the good life, it becomes increasingly apparent that Ripley has no intention of going back either. Dickie's life is much too desirable.
Release Date:
December 25
Written by Minghella, based on Patricia Highsmith's novel
Minghella's version of the Ripley character is immensely personable, though socially a bit curious. Prone to passing off half-truths and white lies -- as well as being quick-witted, a natural mimic, and a hell of a forger -- he willingly becomes a sort of tourist to his own life. A series of accidents, coincidences, and dumb luck conspire with Ripley's desires, opportunism, and casual flair for deceit and fabrication to entangle him in an increasingly convoluted ruse and inescapable destructive spiral. Minghella's Ripley is the tale of a man quietly realizing the true range of his talents.
It's a performance that requires nuance, and Damon, far from the clunky heroism of Good Will Hunting, treads with care. He effortlessly colors his natural charms with a mix of insecurity and peculiar over-eagerness. The scene where Damon sings "My Funny Valentine," so hushed and uncomfortably flat-toned, defines his Ripley: winsome but not at all good. Looking back, it's a credit to Damon's sneaky performance that it's unclear whether Ripley is naturally exploitative or just severely adaptable.
Jude Law has the flashy role as Dickie, the bratty golden boy whom everyone else -- including Ripley -- revolves around, but he captures both the carefree sexiness and the ultimately wanton soul of the young and idly rich equally. Gwyneth Paltrow's Marge is given more room to maneuver in this version, and she uses it to make the character something more than window dressing. Philip Seymour Hoffman, always on the money, smooths out Dickie's snobby pal Freddie. And Cate Blanchett and Jack Davenport give effective but mostly thankless turns as Meredith Logue and Peter Smith-Kingsley, respectively, new and expanded characters for this telling.
While Minghella's additions do help give his film many more interesting -- or at least more obvious -- textures and twists not present otherwise, they also add many more loose ends to wrap up, including some that don't come completely unraveled until what almost amounts to an epilogue. So Ripley ends up releasing its hold on the audience too often too deep into the story. With the end so squarely in sight, the film repeatedly backs off, still content to lope along, unwilling to commit to one final push to the finish. Each time Minghella eventually reapplies the thumbscrews, the feeling isn't a heightened sense of dread but simply the return of a now too-familiar pressure.
The result is an ending that feels like existential driftwood; the irony is not as strong as it should be because it's been out to sea way too long. But it's still entertaining to watch the tragedy of Ripley unfold and see how easily we become his unwitting accomplice and how long we stay his sympathetic cheerleader. If only the film were as fast on its feet as its anti-hero is.

APGAR Test for Newborns
Do You Know What Your Child Scored on the APGAR test?
by babysugar
Like us on Facebook
It's a boy! It's a girl! It's...going off for its APGAR test! So many new mothers are in a state of bliss upon welcoming their child into the world that when it comes time for the newborn to undergo his APGAR (Appearance, Pulse, Grimace, Activity, Respiration) test, she hardly wants to let him go. Truth be told, it all happens within the babe's first five minutes of life so many parents don't even notice his quick removal for a few fleeting moments. As a mother of two children, one might think I could recall at least one of my baby's test results... but I don't. Do you know what your babe scored on his APGAR test?

#2 and #3 were 9 and 10. #1 was 10 & 10. #1 has severe autism, and at age 11 cannot speak, use sign language or a picture exchange system. so much for predictors.

The Apgar Score is actually named after the female doctor, Dr. Virginia Apgar, who created the test in the early '50s after she realized there was no real, standardized way to evaluate a newborn's health. The APGAR acronym was created after the fact in the '60s by a male pediatrician and is a lazy mnemonic learning aid that not only glosses over the importance of Dr. Apgar's contribution to modern obstetrics but crudely describe what the test actually measures. Apgar Score is grammatically and factually correct; APGAR score is not.

The nurse told me my daughter had a perfect score. No one ever said what my son's was because he wasn't breathing at birth so that was our biggest concern. He's a sharp lil guy now though:)

If You Think Handicapping NCAA Was Tough
Before, You Have Not Seen Anything Yet
As Sweet 16 Begins Thursday
By Kelso SturgeonThe bettor's battle to beat the NCAA Basketball Tournament has much in common with a heavyweight championship boxing match in which neither fighter can put away his opponent and a fight in which neither intends to throw in the towel, come hell or high water. It has been that way since March Madness 2015 began and will continue to be so.This is a fight to the finish and anything can happen—and any of the Sweet 16 teams can win it.
If you think undefeated Kentucky (36-0) is going to have it easy, just remember another #1 seed, Villanova (33-3) was knocked out in the third round by 8th-seeded N.C. State, a 9.5-point underdog, 71-68. Let's also remember #14 Georgia State (+9.5) upset #3 Baylor, 57-56, 7th-seeded Michigan State went #2 seeded Virginia packing, 60-54,and #7 seeded Wichita State beat #2 seed Kansas like an old rug, 78-65.
