The present invention relates, generally, to an apparatus for spin drying semiconductor workpieces during a cleaning process and, more particularly, to an improved and balanced spin dryer including a perforated spinner plate having a gripper mechanism for holding a workpiece by its edges during a spin dry operation.
Semiconductor devices, such as microprocessors, memory devices, and other microelectronic computer "chips", are typically produced from a thin, flat, circular disk of material, often referred to as a silicon wafer. A large number of identical microelectronic structures are created on a single wafer and the wafer is then cut into individual devices, whereupon each device is packaged for sale as a chip.
During the manufacture of such semiconductor devices, a series of layers are typically produced on the surface of a wafer. A layer of microelectronic structures may be applied to the wafer surface through the use of, for example, optical lithography, as is well known in the art. In the production of integrated circuits, a plurality of interrelated layers of microelectronic structures are superimposed on the surface of the wafer, with a layer of a dielectric interposed between and separating each of the microelectronic layers. Proper application of a microelectronic layer requires a smooth, highly planar surface. Thus, after each layer of dielectric is applied to a workpiece, the workpiece is planarized through the use of, for example, a chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) machine.
The production of semiconductor devices requires a high degree of purity; hence, powerful and mature clean room manufacturing techniques have been developed. An integral component of clean room fabrication processes is a thorough cleaning of wafers after each planarization, polishing, or other process. A typical cleaning operation passes wafers through a series of scrub rollers, whereupon the wafers are rinsed to remove all particles from the wafer surfaces. After rinsing, the wafers must be dried prior to storage and/or transportation to subsequent processing step(s).
Presently known spin dry systems rely on centrifugal forces which result from spinning wafers at high velocities (e.g., 2,700 to 5,000 rpm) to drive water droplets radially outward from the wafer surfaces, and to thereby liberate all water from the wafer surfaces. The drying of a wafer after cleaning is typically accomplished by placing the wafer on a platform and spinning the platform at a high velocity, for example on the order of 1,000-3,000 rpm, to liberate all rinse water and any residual particles from the wafer surfaces. As a result of these high process velocities, presently known spin drying systems typically confront the following two concerns:
I) the need to protect operators and equipment from disk fragments which could be thrown from the spin dryer in the event that a disk is broken during the spin dry process; and
ii) the need to prevent water thrown from disks during the drying process from contacting disks which have already been dried.
In many prior art systems, these two needs are addressed by isolating the spinner, for example through the use of a shield, compartment, or the like.
Presently known spin dry systems are unsatisfactory in several regards. As spin rates increase, for example, stresses on and in the wafers being spun also increase, resulting in enhanced risks of wafer damage. Moreover, attempts to shield spinning wafers from operators and adjacent equipment tend to increase the "footprint" of the cleaning and/or drying machine, thereby increasing the cost of capital equipment acquisition and maintenance. Such costs become particularly high in a clean room environment.
As semiconductor manufacturers are experiencing increased pressure to increase throughput in response to the growing demand for computer chips, it is also desirable to decrease the time required to dry rinsed wafers. In view of the aforementioned circumstances, however, it is problematic to simply increase the spin rate to thereby decrease drying time.
The present invention provides a method and apparatus for spin drying workpieces, such as semiconductor wafers, which overcomes many of the shortcomings associated with prior art spin dry systems.
In accordance with one aspect of the present invention, a spin dryer assembly includes a platform for securely grasping a workpiece to be dried. The platform is mounted to a drive shaft and motor configured to rotate the platform (and hence the workpiece), thereby generating sufficiently high centrifugal forces to remove water and other particulates from the workpiece surfaces. Pivotally mounted gripping fingers are provided which grip the workpiece by its outer peripheral edges.
In accordance with another aspect of the present invention, an actuator assembly is vertically movable into and out of contact with the gripping fingers. The actuator assembly includes a cam ring which contacts, and biases radially inwardly, shank portions of the gripping fingers to effect pivotal movement of head portions of the gripping fingers out of contact with the workpieces to thereby release the workpieces. When the cam ring is moved out of contact with the gripping fingers, spring loaded plungers bias the shank portions of the gripping fingers radially outwardly which, in turn, effects radially inward pivotal movement of the head portions of the gripping fingers to thereby contact and secure the workpiece on the platform.
In accordance with yet another aspect of the present invention, apertures are formed through the workpiece platform to reduce the mass of the spin dryer and thereby permit reduced acceleration and deceleration time. The apertures are preferably symmetrically arranged relative to the gripping figures to provide balance to the spin dryer assembly.
In accordance with a further aspect of the present invention, a circular shroud surrounds the spin dryer assembly to keep water liberated from workpieces in an enclosed, isolated area and to prevent workpiece fragments from being thrown from the platform in the event that a workpiece is destroyed during the drying process.
In accordance with a still further aspect of the present invention, a forced air stream is caused to flow across the upper surface of the workpiece to augment the drying process. In a particularly preferred embodiment, the column of forced air exhibits a substantially constant velocity throughout the cross-sectional area of the forced air column. In this way, a substantially laminar air flow column is applied to the workpiece, thereby preventing eddy currents or other turbulent phenomena from carrying particles and/or moisture back to the surface of the workpiece.
These and other aspects of the present invention are described in full detail in the following description, attached drawings and claims.
The present invention will be described herein in conjunction with the appended drawing figures, wherein like numerals denote like elements, and:

A spin dryer assembly 100 according to the present invention is illustrated in FIG. 1. Spin dryer assembly 100 is shown mounted on an exemplary machine 10 for polishing, cleaning, rinsing and drying workpieces such as semiconductor wafers. Though spin dryer assembly 100 is illustrated in connection with machine 10, it could be utilized in any environment requiring efficient spin drying of workpieces.
Assembly 100 comprises a spin dryer 200 enclosed within a chamber 102 defined by pipe-like shroud or shield 104. Air flow module 108 is appropriately mounted above or within shroud 104 such that a substantially uniform velocity column of forced air is directed towards spin dryer 200, as will be discussed in greater detail below.
Referring now to FIG. 2, spin dryer 200 comprises a workpiece platform 202 which is configured to securely hold thereon a workpiece, such as a semiconductor wafer, as the workpiece is spun at a high velocity. Although the present invention is envisioned and intended for use in conjunction with virtually any type of circular workpiece amenable to being grasped by the edges and spin dried, for sake of brevity, the remainder of this specification will discuss spin dryer 200 in the context of semiconductor wafers.
Centrifugal forces applied to a wafer held on platform 202 as the platform is spun at high velocities draws water droplets radially outwardly and off of the wafer surfaces. Platform 202 is rotated at high velocities by virtue of its connection to a motor 260. Motor 260 is contained within housing 230 and includes a drive shaft 246 having a key 247 (FIG. 3). Shaft 246 extends from motor 260, through an opening in the top of housing 230, and is secured within a mating receptacle 232 formed in the bottom of platform 202 by a screw 224 or other appropriate fastener. Key 247 formed on shaft 246 mates with keyway 248 formed in platform receptacle 232 (best seen in FIGS. 5a and 5b) to thereby fix shaft 246 and platform 202 for relative rotation. A motor suitable for use with the present invention is manufactured under Model No. ASM81C by the Berkeley Process Controls company of California.
In order to minimize the amount of time required to spin dry wafers, rapid acceleration and deceleration of platform 202 is desirable. Spin dryer 200 is preferably configured to accelerate from an idle condition to maximum spin dry speed, that is, from 0 to approximately 4,000 rpm, in the range of 0.5 to 4.0 seconds, and most preferably in about 1.0 seconds. Spin dryer 200 is further configured to sustain a maximum spin dry speed in the range of 3,000-5,000 rpm (most preferably 3,600-4,400 rpm, and optimally about 4,000 rpm) for a period of 10-30 seconds, and most preferably for about 20 seconds. Finally, spin dryer 200 is configured to decelerate back to an idle condition in the range of 0.5 to 4.0 seconds, and most preferably in about 1.0 seconds. Minimization of the mass of spin dryer 200 is key to achieving these performance parameters.
In furtherance of minimizing the mass of spin dryer 200, a plurality of mass-reducing apertures or perforations 220 are formed through platform 202. Apertures 220 are best illustrated in FIGS. 4, 5a and 5b. The placement, size and number of apertures 220 are calculated to maximize the reduction in mass of platform 202 while ensuring sufficient structural integrity of the system. In the illustrated embodiment, five apertures 220 are equidistantly spaced around, and formed through, the outer circumferential portion of platform 202. Platform 202 may be constructed from any strong, lightweight material. 6061-T6 aluminum is an example of one such material.
Actuator assembly 214 is mounted around housing 230 below platform 202. Assembly 214 comprises a base ring 215 and a cam ring 216. Base ring 215 rests above shoulder 231 formed in housing 230 and is vertically movable relative to housing 230. Cam ring 216 is fixed above base ring 215 and is formed with an inclined cam surface 217. Actuator assembly 214 is operated by an air cylinder 250 which is attached to housing 230 below assembly 214 through use of a bolt 254 or another appropriate fastener. A vertically movable connective member 252 operatively links air cylinder 250 and actuator assembly 214. Actuation of air cylinder 250 causes upward vertical movement of connective member 252 which, in turn, causes upward vertical movement of assembly 214. After sufficient vertical movement actuator assembly 214 engages gripping fingers 206 attached to platform 202 to effect the controlled release of a wafer from the platform, as will be described in more detail below.
A plurality of gripping fingers 206 are pivotally mounted in notches 222 (see FIG. 5a) formed around the outer periphery of platform 202. The pivotal mount is accomplished through use of a pin 207 which extends through a bore 223 formed through fingers 206 and into pin receptacles 226 formed in platform 202. Each gripping finger 206 includes a head portion 206a extending above platform 202 and a shank portion 206b extending below platform 202.
Though any appropriate number of gripping fingers may be employed, preferably five gripping fingers 206 are mounted in notches 222 equidistantly spaced around the periphery of platform 202 in central locations relative to the five apertures 220. This symmetrical arrangement of fingers 206 relative to apertures 220 provides balance to spin dryer 200. Fingers 206 are preferably made from a soft, pliable material which will not scratch, damage, or otherwise adversely affect wafers which they contact and grip. An example of a suitable material is Ertalyte.
Spring plungers 210 are mounted within mounting blocks 208 attached below platform 202 (see FIG. 2b) at locations adjacent and spaced radially inwardly from notches 222. Plungers 210 are secured within mounting blocks 208 by lock nuts 212 or any other suitable fasteners. Each plunger 210 is spring loaded and includes a head 211 that is biased radially outwardly and contacts the shank 206b of the adjacent gripping finger 206. Shanks 206b are thereby urged radially outwardly. By virtue of the pivotal attachment of fingers 206 to platform 202, outward radial movement of shanks 206b effects inward radial movement of heads 206a. In this manner, fingers 206 grip or grasp the outer perimeter of a wafer resting on platform 202 to secure the wafer during operation of spin dryer 200.
Shank portions 206b of fingers 206 extend a sufficient distance below pivot pin 207 to provide a counterweight effect. Centrifugal forces imparted to fingers 206 during operation of spin dryer 200 will cause shank portions 206b to move radially outwardly and hence, head portions 206a to pivot radially inwardly. This is advantageous in that the gripping effect of fingers 206 is enhanced. Moreover, should spring-loaded plungers 210 fail to function properly, a gripping effect will still be provided by virtue of the centrifugal forces acting on fingers 206.
A plurality (e.g., five) of support pins 204 are disposed about the outer perimeter of platform 202 in alignment with gripping fingers 206. Wafers do not rest directly on platform 202 but instead rest on top of support pins 204. Support pins 204 are also preferably made from a soft, pliable material, such as Ertalyte, that will not scratch or otherwise damage the wafers being processed.
Operation of spin dryer assembly 100 is as followed. When a wafer is ready for loading onto platform 202, air cylinder 250 is actuated to urge assembly 214 upwardly and into contact with the shank portions 206b of gripping fingers 206. Cam surface 217 contacts shank portions 206b and, as assembly 214 continues to move upwardly, causes the shank portions to pivot radially inwardly (FIG. 3). Consequently, head portions 206a pivot radially outwardly and provide clearance for loading a wafer onto platform 202.
Next, a robot arm or other appropriate mechanism loads a wafer onto platform 202. The wafer does not directly contact platform 202, but instead, rests on pliable support pins mounted above platform 202. Once the wafer is properly placed, actuator assembly 214 begins to move downwardly and away from gripping fingers 206. As shank portions 206b slide along cam surface 217, spring loaded plungers 210 bias the shank portions radially outwardly. Consequently, head portions 206a pivot radially inwardly and engage and grip the wafer resting on platform 202 to secure the wafer during the spin dry process.
Once the wafer has been properly secured as described above, motor 260 effects high velocity rotation of platform 202, and hence, the wafer secured thereon. Any residual water rinse water present on the wafer surfaces is removed from the wafer by the centrifugal forces acting on the wafer. Shroud 104 surrounding spin dryer 200 keeps the water liberated from the spinning wafer in an enclosed, isolated area and also prevents wafer fragments from being thrown from the platform in the event that a wafer is damaged or destroyed during the spin drying process.
An air flow module 108 may be mounted above shroud 104 to generate a forced air stream during spin drying. Application of a column of forced air across the upper wafer surface augments the drying process. Preferably, a clean room-type air supply is employed and generates an air stream which is of substantially constant velocity throughout the cross-section of the discharged air such that a substantially uniform column of air is applied to the top surface of the wafer. In this way, a substantially laminar air flow column is applied to the wafer, thereby preventing eddy currents or other turbulent phenomena from carrying particles and/or moisture back to the surface of the workpiece. Alternatively, an air flow mechanism could be disposed inside shroud 104 by, for example, incorporating an impeller mechanism onto platform 202.
Shroud 104 may be configured to exhaust the forced air stream from the underside of platform 202, such that a substantially uniform flow of air impinges upon the upper surface of the workpiece and is thereafter drawn downwardly through the annulus defined between the outer perimeter of platform 202 and the inner diameter of shroud 104. The inner diameter of shroud 104 may be selected to ensure optimum clearance in the region between it and the outer perimeter of platform 202 and that, for a given average flow velocity, substantially laminar or uniform airflow is obtained at the plane of the workpiece.
Once the spin drying cycle is complete, actuator assembly 214 is again urged upwardly to engage shank portions 206b and cause gripping fingers 206 to move to a release position as described above. Assembly 214 is maintained in this position and head portions 206a of gripping fingers 206 are maintained in an outwardly biased position until the dried wafer has been removed for further processing and another wafer is loaded for spin drying. The process then repeats as described above.
An alternate spin dryer embodiment 300 is shown in FIG. 9. Spin dryer 300 operates in essentially the same fashion as spin dryer 200, but rather than utilizing a direct connection between the workpiece platform and motor drive shaft, an intermediate bearing shaft 302 is disposed therebetween. Only those features which differ substantially from the previously described spin dryer embodiment will be described in detail.
Workpiece platform 304 is secured to bearing shaft 302 through use of a screw 306 or other suitable fastening mechanism. Bearing shaft 302 is coupled to motor drive shaft 308 by flexible coupler 310. Drive shaft 308, in turn, is directly attached to motor 312. Key and keyway combinations 330, 332 and 334 effect fixed relative rotation of platform 304, bearing shaft 302 and drive shaft 308. Respective drive bearings 314 and 316, shown separated by a bearing spacer 318, are suitably housed within bearing housing 320. Bearing housing 320, is rigidly affixed to mounting plate 322 which, in turn, is rigidly secured to the frame of the spin dryer assembly.
The spin dryer embodiment illustrated in FIG. 9 is useful in applications where the drive motor utilized does not have sufficient capacity for absorbing the high acceleration and deceleration loads created by the spin dry process. The acceleration and deceleration loads are carried primarily by drive bearings 314 and 316 rather than by the bearings (not shown) internal to motor 312. Hence, the moment of inertia that must be borne by the motor bearings is reduced and acceleration and deceleration times are optimized. Formation of platform 304 with mass-reducing apertures 324, as described with reference to spin dryer 200, further contributes to reduction in acceleration and deceleration times.
Workpiece platform 304 is formed with a downwardly opening collar 326 which functions as a protective cover to protect bearings 314 and 316 from leakage of water into the interior of bearing housing 320. It may also be necessary to provide air cylinder 336 with a protective cap 338 to guard against water infiltration. Bearing housing 320 also preferably includes a removable access panel or door 328 to allow manual access to coupling 310 and the drive shafts associated therewith.
The present invention has been described with reference to particular embodiments described in the text and attached drawing figures. It should be appreciated, however, that the scope of the invention is not so limited. Modification may be made to the particular embodiments described herein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as represented in the following claims.

The Boeing Company Awards Harris Corporation $1.3 Million Avionics Contract for the AH-64D Apache Helicopter.
MELBOURNE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 12, 2001
Harris Corporation (NYSE:HRS), a world leader in high-capacity avionics networks and digital moving maps for military aircraft, announced today that it has been awarded a $1.3 million contract by The Boeing Company, Mesa, Arizona, to provide the cockpit Memory Transfer and Storage Unit (MTSU) for the U.S. Army AH-64D Apache Longbow helicopter. The MTSU provides on-board, pilot-accessible, mass memory for the aircraft's avionics systems and mission computers.
"We are delighted that Boeing selected the RAH-66 Comanche MTSU built by Harris for the Apache Longbow," said Bob Henry, president, Harris Government Communications Systems Division (GCSD). "The U.S. Army and Boeing are clearly committed to avionics commonality between platforms, and commonality between these two essential elements of Army aviation is critical to reducing the overall life-cycle costs of fielding current and next-generation helicopters. Harris is also very proud of its standing as one of only a dozen or so companies worldwide to be awarded Gold-level Preferred Supplier Certified (PSC) status by Boeing for maintaining stringent quality and delivery standards on all our programs."
The Harris MTSU is a solid-state data storage device that incorporates commercial Personal Computer Memory Card International Association (PCMCIA) memory cards that can be easily installed and retrieved from the MTSU on a mission-by-mission basis. The MTSU is capable of accessing 4 gigabytes of data, taking advantage of the increased speed and memory density provided by commercial memory cards.
The AH-64D Apache Longbow is the newest version of the combat-proven AH-64A Apache, and a candidate to fulfill the attack helicopter and reconnaissance requirements of several armed forces worldwide. The Apache Longbow is the only combat helicopter in service with the ability to rapidly detect, classify, prioritize and engage stationary or moving enemy targets at standoff ranges in nearly all weather environments. Boeing has announced a commitment to deliver an additional 1,000 Apaches over the next decade.

LLANO — The smell of chemicals wafting from a mobile home in this remote desert community led to the arrest of two people on suspicion of manufacturing methamphetamine, a Sheriff's Department spokeswoman said.
A deputy patrolling the 25800 block of East Avenue U-8 on Friday afternoon discovered a methamphetamine laboratory in the trailer after he picked up the scent, said Deputy Diane Hecht.
Hecht said the deputy found two people inside and discovered a bunker nearby containing glassware, heating elements, chemicals and 1 1/2 ounces of the narcotic known on the street as "speed." The drug had a street value of $45,000, she said.
Arrested Friday were Dwight Robert Henry, 49, who lived in the mobile home, and Carolyn Sue Hunt, 36, of Wrightwood, the deputy said. They were being held at the Antelope Valley Sheriff's station in lieu of $500,000 bail each, she said.

Wow. Lawrence O'Donnell Comes Out Swinging Against "Unprovoked" Police Brutality at Occupy Wall Street
"Videocameras are their worst enemy:" Lawrence O'Donnell's stirring segment about NYPD violence at the Occupy Wall Street protests has gone viral.
In it, he carefully dissects video footage of this weekend's arrests and use of pepper spray, saying the record shows there is "no conceivable justification" for the use of the latter-- and declaring that while most of the police officers were acting calmly and non-violently, the bullies and troublemakers are being let off the hook. He worries that investigations of these rogue officers will be "a sham."
If this story doesn't go away, says O'Donnell, the police will be held to account. But he vows not to let it go away and declares that he will take back his criticisms only if these officers are disciplined: "American police have gotten away with another crime against the American people they are sworn to serve and protect."

Isola Bar & Grill extends over two floors in Hong Kong's huge IFC mall, and can hardly be described as a pedestrian mall eatery - the restaurant sports an exquisitely embossed white on white décor and also affords one of the most stunning views of Hong Kong's bustling Victoria Harbor whilst offering flavorful, authentic Italian fare. Isola is spread out over seven thousand feet and features floor-to-ceiling windows, an alfresco dining terrace, open kitchens and a bar on its upper level. The restaurant has a rather extensive menu that showcases a wide variety of Italian specialties like thin crust pizzas, carpaccio, and homemade hand-pulled pastas along with various antipasti, salads, mains and delectable desserts. -Anjeeta Nayar

Something seems to be wrong with the bottle I've received, there seems to be absolutely no biological activity at all. To test if your bottle is affected, simply mix 2 teaspoon full of powder with some milk and set it in your yogurt maker. If the milk curds after a few hours then yours is fine, however if your milk remains the same then you have received a dud too.

I'm a physician that bought this product to help my baby with her colic. I found this after reading some research supporting the use of Lactobacillus Reuteri for colic- and this is one of the few products i could find that has that bacteria. She went from crying 3-4 hours every evening for weeks to being a normal baby in about 4 days time of using this product. It did the job. I do caution that it can cause bloating, loose stools and stomach discomfort for a few days after starting to use it. For a baby with colic this is probably no worse than what they already have.

The combination of Lactobacillus rhamnosus and Lactobacillus reuteri treat vulvovaginal candidiasis. Bifidobacterium infantis helps against bloating. Bifidobacterium longum has a long list of benefits, among which is the control against overgrowth of E coli.

my daughter used to have bouts of room emptying, car stopping (to wind down the windows) flatulence. Now, she only has them when we stop giving her this Primadophilus Reuteri for about a week. We give her one teaspoon a day.

I started my baby on this soon after I quit giving her breastmilk, around 6 weeks or so. I worked up to 1/4 tsp PER BOTTLE, so she got about 1 1/2 - 2 tsp of this powder per day. WOW WOW WOW! This stuff works, TOTALLY WORKS. My baby was sooo healthy, while others had the stomach flu, she would bypass it. When others had a cold, she would only get a lighter case of it. She was really healthy for a formula fed baby. I took her off it at 11 months or so, and she began to be much sicker. She started having a continous runny nose, colds, congestion, and she even had to be put in the hospital. IF ONLY I WOULD HAVE KEPT GIVING HER REUTERI POWDER< she might have bypassed all this and been healthy as she was before. Anyone who has a formula fed baby, THIS IS A MUST! It will make your baby healthy, and smooth out her digestive system. Just a little in each bottle, makes a huge difference! TRY IT YOU'LL SEE UPDATE: I had another baby, who is now 6 weeks old and had colic she would scream and fuss on and off for hours! I exclusivly pump breast milk and feed her in a bottle. So I add 1 1/2 tsp to one bottle per day or so, Its been about a week and she is getting better! Plus her goopy eye cleared up, Reuteri boosts the immune system, I look forward to giving this to my baby throughout her baby and possibly toddler years for a boosted immune system and better digestive health! It works!

WOODINVILLE, Wash. -- The day of the Sandy Hook Elementary shooting Alexis Haller flew to Connecticut to help his sister. She had three kids at the school. Only two came home.
Haller says in those earliest hours, the entire family made a promise to make things better.
There isn't much you can say to comfort each other, said Haller. Everything about the situation is the worst. But the only thing we latched onto very early is that we're going to make something positive out of it. Make a change and do it for Noah.
Noah was the youngest of the victims. He was shot 11 times.
Haller is an attorney. Determined to make a difference, he and his extended family drafted a proposal of legislative reforms. It includes a safekeeping law that would require gun owners to keep firearms away from the mentally ill. It also includes a reporting law, that would require anyone who knows of a grave and imminent threat of serious physical harm or death made by another individual and believes that person has access to firearms or explosives, to report it to police.
In a lot of these situations targeted school shootings, people know ahead of time that there is something wrong with the person, said Haller. They know the person has made threats against others, they may know that they have access to firearms.
The family gave their proposal to Vice President Biden, who is expected to make his reform recommendations Tuesday.
Haller says Biden s aide gave them positive feedback, but the family is not sure Biden will incorporate their ideas into his recommendations.

A law that takes effect July 1 requires Virginia communities to offer low-cost rabies vaccinations for pets every other year. The state has had one human case of rabies in the past six years, but many cases are documented in wild and domestic animals annually, with 184 to date in 2013. Vaccinating pets and keeping them from roaming are among the steps owners can take to protect their animals and themselves.

I also have a 31' Bombay Clipper. The boat is very roomy for a boat this size and in my opinion sails well. I also have the 5' draft so can not comment on the shoal keel. I have found the boat to be very sturdy and have had her out in some good winds and waves inside and outside of the San Francisco bay the boat handled it well, I never felt it flex at all just like Farcry said "built like a tank". I have to agree with Farcry's post so I won't repeat what he said. I am a bit nuts so I won't lecture you on taking a boat you just bought on such a long trip. The boat will make it, seems they usually do, it's the crew who bails first. I am not at my boat so can't post any pics. I live aboard and love my boat very much with all the room and comfort these boats have for their size. Please keep us posted on the trip and how you think the boat did.

Trend in bridal gowns is to follow your heart
NEW YORK Many brides positively know what their wedding gown will look like long before they meet their groom, and they're not going to let a little thing – OK, actually a huge thing – known as the economy dash their dream dress.
They are seeking out gowns with smaller price-tags, according to industry experts, but their expectations haven't shrunk accordingly.
What's a gown designer to do?
Give these women what they want and bundle it up in a big white bow. There's really no arguing with a bride who has made up her mind.
At the most recent round of wedding fashion previews, observers said there were a lot of sellable gowns catering to a variety of tastes and lifestyles, none of which, however, were obviously pared-down. There might have been a little less beading and fewer exotic trims, such as feathers, to keep costs down, but there wasn't an industry-wide movement toward gowns on the cheap, the insiders said.
"When I try to think of one overriding theme, it's that brides still want the options for the wedding they want to have," said Darcy Miller, editorial director of Martha Stewart Weddings. And of course, she added, each bride wants a different kind of wedding; it's a traditional, formal blowout for one, a more casual beach bash for another.
"Because of the economic climate, a lot of brides are willing to get a DJ instead of a band, do it on Sunday instead of a Saturday night, but they still have the wedding and still have the dream of what they wanted their dress to be," Miller said.
Designer Monique Lhuillier said she feels almost protective when crafting wedding gowns, which is different than the trendsetter role she might play when working on red-carpet gowns or ready-to-wear clothes.
"It's a wedding, a celebration, a new life, a new love, a new chapter. I'm honored to be a part of it and rework the dress to make sure it's perfect in my own eye," said Lhuillier.
"I thought about the ultimate bride and how much we could give her," said another designer, Reem Acra. "The perfect look is that she wants to stay young, stay fresh and be able to travel with the dress."
Acra captured modern and airy silhouettes influenced by a trip to Japan, where she was impressed with gardens, Zen and an aesthetic of purity.
There's no "flash" in the gowns, Acra explained, since she was aiming for a sweeter sort of beauty, when a bride gets caught up in the romance of the occasion.
"You want the bride to feel like she's getting married – that it's pure and real," she said. "After all, you're not getting married to throw a party or even to wear the dress. You are getting married to get married – for you, for him, for the both of you – and these dresses are supposed to reflect that."

Sometimes they would drink a beer with the travelers. Also when you check in they tell you a lot about the city and where to go to. The only downside was that the hostel doesn't have a kitchen, but you could always get some plates to eat your food in the common room. "

Saturday July 14, 2007
RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil (AP): Fireworks exploded and the wave went around Rio's cherished Maracana soccer stadium as Brazil launched its biggest show on Friday -- and a test of its ability to become a major player on the global sports stage.
President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva and a crowd of nearly 90,000 packed the stadium to officially open the Pan American Games, the biggest sporting event this city has seen since the 1950 World Cup.
"The Pan American Games are an opportunity not only to show our happiness and hospitality, but also the quality of our workers, businessmen and officials,'' Silva -- who was booed by the crowed when his name was mentioned -- said in a statement.
After a colorful tribute to nature and wildlife with thousands of costumed dancers, Joaquim Cruz -- the 800-meter gold medalist in the 1984 Olympics -- carried in the torch to light the gas flame at the 20-foot(6-meter)-high pyre on the field, symbolically beginning the games.
Maracana was built for the 1950 Cup, which Brazil lost to underdog Uruguay. Brazil went on to win a record five Cups but never hosted another, and Brazilians feel that a good show at the Pan Ams will prove to the world they can stage the 2014 World Cup and perhaps even the 2016 Olympics.
"This is so important, for Brazil and for the world,'' said 28-year-old Jacqueline Lima, an executive secretary attending the ceremony. "I'm so proud of Rio. It will go down in history with these games.''
Security was so strict that many fans couldn't get to the renovated stadium in time. The ceremony began late with many seats empty, and hundreds of would-be participants stuck in lines stretching for streets outside, waiting to pass metal detectors and inspection.
The games will bring 5,662 athletes from 42 countries to Rio until July 29.
The stadium erupted in a throbbing samba rhythm when 1,500 costumed percussionists took the field in a scene evocative of Rio's annual Carnival parade.
Thousands of fireworks exploded from 127 launching points in the stadium and 1,000 lights with computer-coordinated effects colored the field, all to the pulsating anthem composed for the games, called "Share the Energy.''
Then the delegations of the 42 countries paraded, the massive Argentina team followed by a seven-member contingent from Antigua and Barbuda.
Vanderlei Cordeiro de Lima, a national hero after he was tackled by a protester while leading the Olympic marathon in 2004 in Athens and returned to finish third, carried Brazil's flag and was loudly applauded.
The Pan Ams torch was carried by more than 3,000 Brazilians through 51 cities to Rio, and arrived on Friday at the Christ the Redeemer statue -- elected last week one of the seven modern wonders of the world -- before coming to Maracana.
Rio overcame charges of cost overruns and misspending to prepare for its first games. Silva said the final cost was 3.5 billion reals (US$1.7 billion; euro1.2 billion).
Jacques Rogge, president of the International Olympic Committee, said he was impressed with the installations and that Rio would be a strong candidate to stage the 2016 Olympics, boosted by its experience as host of the Pan Ams.
"The IOC is very pleased to have six excellent candidates, and Rio has great potential,'' he said this week. "It will be a great legacy for Rio for decades, and this legacy will reach many generations.''

Actor Damian Lewis has revealed that he dedicated a DVD box set of his hit show Homeland to President Obama with the words: 'From one Muslim to another.' Obama revealed that Homeland was his favorite TV show. Lewis was then asked to sign a Homeland box set along with co-star Clare Danes, who plays CIA officer Carrie Mathison, by White House staffers. Lewis said: 'I had to sign a box set of Homeland...apparently the President wanted a signed box set. Clare Danes had written on it [to Obama]: ''I was a fan of yours long before you were a fan of ours.'' 'I tried to think of something classy and wrote: ''From one Muslim to another'' in an inedible Sharpie. And I couldn't take it back.' Is that in poor taste?

At Shindigz, we love to gather for parties and holidays. The 4th of July is one of the biggest feasts and celebrations of the summer. There's the traditional cookout foods we've featured recently to make life more fun and delicious on the Shindigz Party Recipe site, including chicken, corn, bratwurst, hamburgers, kabobs, hot dogs, potato salad and grilled veggies, and watermelon is also a favorite.
Last time we featured Summer Watermelon, Goat Cheese and Mint Appetizers for a more formal occasion.
Today it's Watermelon Salad for the 4th of July!
- 1 1/2 cups seasoned rice vinegar
- 2 (3 inch) pieces fresh ginger root, peeled and lightly crushed
- 2 shallots, chopped
- 2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes, or to taste
- 1/4 cup light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 4 cups watermelon rind, white part only, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- 1 (1 pound) package thick cut bacon
- 1/2 cup peeled and chopped fresh ginger root
- 2 cloves garlic, peeled
- 4 limes, juiced
- 1 cup seasoned rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 bunch cilantro, stems and leaves separated
- 12 cups chilled seedless watermelon, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 bunch green onions, chopped
- Bring 1 1/2 cups of seasoned rice vinegar to a boil in a saucepan, and mix in the 2 pieces of crushed ginger root, shallots, red pepper flakes, 1/4 cup of light brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Stir until the brown sugar and salt have dissolved, and remove from heat. Place watermelon rind into a large heatproof nonreactive bowl, and strain the pickling liquid through a fine mesh strainer into the watermelon rind. Stir to combine, and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
- Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate. Chop the bacon into pieces when cooled.
- For dressing, place 1/2 cup of peeled and chopped ginger, garlic, lime juice, 1 cup of seasoned rice vinegar, 2 tablespoons of light brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and cilantro stems in a blender. Blend on high speed, scraping down blender sides occasionally, until the ginger and cilantro stems are pulverized and the dressing is thoroughly blended.
- To assemble, place about 1 cup of watermelon cubes onto a salad plate, and drizzle with about 2 tablespoons of the dressing. Top with about 2 tablespoons of the pickled rind, 1 to 2 tablespoons of bacon bits, 1 tablespoon of cilantro leaves, and about 1/2 tablespoon of chopped green onion, or to taste.
Bring this treat to your 4th of July Celebration this summer!

But thanks to advancements in holographic technology, the hip-hop legend appeared alongside Dr. Dre and Snoop Dog in a vivid, lifelike cameo. The Japanese have been making use of holograms to create virtual pop stars for several years now. But the Tupac performance was unique in that it relied on footage of live performances from Tupac's career to create a striking replica of his onstage look and presence, right down to iconic gestures. Where will this technology go from here? No doubt Vegas could pack the house for a live performance from a holographic Elvis Presley. I'd certainly pay to see a convincing hologram of Kurt Cobain, Sam Cooke or John Lennon do a live set. All the more so if it was based on footage of an actual performance and captured the singers mannerisms. Check out the video and tell us what you think.

Hanley Center Acquires the East Coast's First SPECT Scanner to Treat Addiction
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla., May 25 /PRNewswire/ — Hanley Center, one of the country's leading nonprofit addiction treatment centers, today announced plans to use SPECT (single photon emission computed tomography) scans to capture brain images of patients with alcohol and drug addiction. These pictures help identify blood flow to the areas of the brain involved in addictive behaviors, which Hanley Center's medical staff can use to design more effective patient treatment programs.
"We are introducing the next frontier of addiction treatment in scanning the brain, which is the target organ for this disease," said Dr. Barbara Krantz, chief executive officer and medical director of research at Hanley Center. "By capturing precise blood-flow information and using our baseline knowledge of a healthy brain structure, we can recommend more effective treatments, identify other brain-based disorders that affect addiction and can scientifically document and demonstrate what works and what doesn't in addiction treatment."
While advances in science have shown that addiction is indeed a disease, medical technology commonly used to diagnose other illness has not yet been integrated into standard addiction treatment programs.
"What we're doing here is really diagnosing the physiological problem that contributes to addiction, showing patients with clear pictures how addictive drugs change the brain, and then we can create a plan to attack the problems directly," said Dr. Daniel Amen, who wrote the best-selling book, Change Your Brain, Change Your Body and is chief executive officer and medical director of Amen Clinics. "This technology that we have used for years to diagnose many other illnesses will show that addiction is not a character problem, but rather a brain illness."
Amen, a psychiatrist and pioneer in brain imaging, also is partnering with Hanley Center to read and interpret the scans, to train its staff and to conduct research.
SPECT imaging uses nuclear medicine to create a three-dimensional image, which can be shown as cross-sectional slices. They're commonly used in diagnosing heart disease, tumors, dementia, and thyroid or bone diseases.
Short- and long-term substance abuse affects blood flow and metabolism, compromising the central nervous system — the brain in particular. By analyzing blood flow to the areas of the brain most impacted by the disease, Hanley Center can customize treatment plans to address specific brain dysfunctions related to addiction. For example, SPECT scans can help identify conditions such as depression or brain trauma, which are both associated with increased incidence of substance abuse, and customize a plan to treat those ailments in conjunction with addiction.
Beyond assisting in addiction diagnoses and treatment, brain imaging can also be used to educate patients by showing them their pre- and post-treatment scans. Hanley also plans to incorporate the images into its prevention and education programs, and use them for research with local partners.
In addition to working with Amen, Hanley is partnering with the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine and Scripps Florida in Jupiter, Fla. to conduct research on addiction recovery outcomes and effective therapies for long-term treatment. Part of that research includes establishing markers that may help doctors predict patient relapse.
About Hanley Center
Headquartered in West Palm Beach, Fla., Hanley Center is a non-profit organization that offers a broad spectrum of programs that are based on the most advanced research in the disease of addiction. From detoxification and medical stabilization to individualized treatment and continuing-care planning, Hanley Center prides itself on offering the most innovative and effective treatment programs designed by professional experts in their respective fields. Unique to the Center is the "Hanley Model of Care," which includes age and gender-specific treatment programs. These tailored programs ensure patients leave equipped with the necessary tools to move forward on their journey of recovery. For more information, please visit: www.hanleycenter.org.

|First of all, they don't really say much.
|Second of all, some kids just don't learn the way some teachers teach or don't express their learning the way some teachers expect them to.
|Third of all, I think they are bad for self esteem (because of the above reasons, because they don't say anything about a child's effort, improvement, creativity, learning style, other skills that aren't on a report card, Etc, etc, etc.)
|part of being in school is learning to express oneself appropriately and adequately.
|There's not a lot of call for creativity in, say, math or phonics or spelling. So, grades in those subjects don't need to reflect a child's creativity.
|The point is, teachers are generally not evil purveyors of arbitrary pigeon-holing numbers (or letters).

It's an attack on Marquez that's poorly disguised(albeit intentionally I suspect) so you can't blame people for calling you out on it.
Morales performance against Maidana fooled millions when the truth was he wasn't 40% of the fighter he was.
That comeback always worried me because I feared it would end badly.
Fighting Juanma now would be totally misrepresentative of the status a fight between them truly deserved.
Where's the jab at Marquez? Isn't he holder than the other two? If anything there's nothing but praise for Marquez. Being 40, who else can you name that has transformed his body and looked so great as well all through hard work and time in the gym taking natural supplements. What are you trying to imply? All I'm saying is if Marquez was able to do it, why can't those other 2. If all it takes is hard work and putting in that time like Marquez did then why can't those other two do it as well. Do you have something else in your mind that makes you think there's a jab at Marquez? Because all I'm saying is he was able to do it with hard work, so those other two should as well. People trying to call out as well must have something on their mind too. But me, it's all hard work and putting in that time in the gym.

quite possibly, but on me it turned to expensive baby powder......i would sample 1st, if possible....i'm glad i did!!
Ok, I have 2 niche coming in the mail this week. GIT and New Haarlem. Both I sampled and love. I am planning to buy another niche fragrance. Chergui by Serge Lutens. I don't know if this Chergui is sold at Saks Fifth or Neiman Marcus? I want to sample it first, but if I can't find it at Saks or Neiman, I am planning to blind buy this fragrance.
I like these sweet fragrances, Burberry London, A*men, ,New Haarlem...do you think i will like Chergui? thanks for your help.
quite possibly, but on me it turned to expensive baby powder......i would sample 1st, if possible....i'm glad i did!!
Blind buy this instead: L'Erbolario Meharees EDP (1.7 oz for $40)
I'm sure you'll like or love it.
Chergui will be your best purchase yet.
I like Chergui, but it's quite different from the others you listed. It's drier, more chocolatey, and not totally sweet. Few flowers in sight.
So I think it's not a safe purchase. Besides, there are others SL that you may like better. Most Saks and Neimans don't sell SL, as far as I know, but if you live in a town with Saks and Neimans, you may be able to find SL as well elsewhere. Or at least, wait for a trip to such towns.
I bought Chergui blind, and I love it. 5 star frag.
Looking for Hermessence Ambre Narguile and for TFPB Moss Breches (50ml bottle), willing to pay in cashdollars. PM me!
Great stuff, but I can`t imagine it on a man. Perfect for a classy woman.
I love gourmands and I love Chergui, I'd go for it. Just give it time to get used to, its pretty complex
Chergui is perfectly wearable for a man.
I have never been told that I smell like a woman when I wore it.
Chergui is unisex, and a perfect compliment to Tobacco Vanille---which I suspect'll be your 4th niche purchase
Looking for Hermessence Ambre Narguile and for TFPB Moss Breches (50ml bottle), willing to pay in cashdollars. PM me!
If you like A*Men then you should have no problem liking Chergui.
I love Chergui. Why can't you? =)
if u like sweet scent most likely u will like chergui
I'd suggest sampling first given how expensive Serge Lutens is. Most of their frags are too syrupy for me.
sample costs x, full bottle costs y
- dislike, then x ist lost
- like, x ist lost (somehow)
otherwise, without sampling
- dislike, then y is lost
- like, lucky guy (somehow)
Vice versa: to like/need/greed a fragrance should be near to definitely granted to justify a purchase without extensive sampling before. That is never the case, from my experience, though. Even with frags I like on the spot I most propably have some arguments during continous wearings. A generous sample could help a lot to straighten things out ;-)
The reason why is all the above comments are valid feminine, unisex, males can wear etc... The reason why their are so many diverse and different comments is simply the effect of the "drydown" result. Depending on your own skin test, can turn rather sweet.
Good Luck and keep us all informed of how it goes!
Chegui as a blind buy? I suggest NOT and get to experience that drydown yourself before deciding.
Serge Lutens are too expensive for me to blind buy. unless you have good opportunities for trading easily with other niche fragrance aficianados, or have a really high income, its a pretty big risk. I have tried it and found it quite feminine (but my perceptions are quite arbitrary really, they change too much to count for anything.) The range is huge so it would be a pity not to go through it before you pick one.
I agree with all of the above, and I know that doesn't help Chergui is complex, sweet, floral. Easily worn by a man, but maybe not all men. It is beautiful, but you have to be ready for it. I think you will probably like it, but only you can decide if it is worth a total blind buy - it is expensive and somewhat split in the opinions. It is also fairly easy to get a sample. I think that is what I would do. Sample first.
don't blind buy it man. it's over-hyped if you don't looooooove sweet stuff you will not like this!! it makes me nauseous.
Blind buy Chergui??? No Way!
Discover my Guest Reviewer Of The Day here
New Haarlem, GIT= good, safe blind buys.
Chergui = you will smell like the best middle aged women ever!!!!!!!!!!! Baby wipes, honey, and tobacco.
Based on your current likes, chances are very good that you will like Chergui. I would say it is a safe blind buy. I think it is fantastic.
Chergui is my fave of all time and i think you will love it, as i do
Sample it first. It's a beautiful fragrance, but some men aren't looking to wear a beautiful fragrance. I'm not downing others for wearing fragrances that are heavy on the female side, but I myself can't pull it off. If you want something more masculine, but of equal quality try Tabac Aurea or Tom Ford's Tobacco Vanille.
I recommend that you sample before you buy. I enjoy Chergui very much, but it has a sweet drydown which can grow tiresome. Definitely unisex. It is one of those fragrances you can easily fall in love with, but grow tired of just as quickly if you don't like sweet scents. Good luck!
If it makes you smile, laugh, grin, go for it and enjoy !!! Worst case you don't like it after a few uses , you can swap or trade it !
it's that popular that you wont have any difficulty trading it .
I love Chergui, but with niche fragrances I really don't know if there is such a thing as a safe blind buy. You gotta sample cuz what works for me may not work for you!
If you got money to burn then why not buy blind, but otherwise it's not hard to sample a fragrance... or maybe "I'm going to blind buy [fragrance]" makes a snappy thread title??
