India secured a three-run victory in a thrilling finish to the first one-day international against Sri Lanka in Rajkot, taking a 1-0 lead in the five-match series.
Virender Sehwag hit 146 off 102 deliveries and featured in century partnerships with Sachin Tendulkar (69) and Mahendra Singh Dhoni (72) as India finished on 414 for seven.
Sri Lanka replied in similar style with Tillakaratne Dilshan hitting 160 and contributing to substantial stands with Upul Tharanga (67) and Kumar Sangakkara (90).
Thilina Kandamy (24) and Angelo Mathews (38) took Sri Lanka close, but the home side sneaked to victory by restricting the visitors to 411 for eight.
South Africa hold the record for the highest successful run chase, scoring 438 for nine in reply to Australia's 434 in Johannesburg in March 2006.
Sri Lanka's response was just as brutal as India's innings had been earlier as Dilshan and Tharanga kept pace with the required run rate. Dilshan had scored only one off the first seven deliveries he faced, but soon hit stride by lashing Praveen Kumar for consecutive blows and driving Ashish Nehra for three successive boundaries in the next over.
India had again proved shoddy in the field, the first opportunity going down early when Kohli grassed Tharanga on 10. The left-hand opener went on to add 188 for the opening wicket before he was stumped by Dhoni off part-time spinner Suresh Raina.
Sangakkara took up the chase, hammering the bowlers around as he raised a half-century off just 24 deliveries. He was dropped by Harbhajan Singh on 58 and went on to add 128 for the second wicket when he mistimed a pull off Praveen and ended up presenting Jadeja at deep square leg with a simple catch.
Sri Lanka had needed a further 99 from 81 deliveries at that stage, but Harbhajan, who had conceded only 17 from his first five overs, removed Sanath Jayasuriya and Dilshan in quick succession to bring India back into contention.
Mahela Jayawardene was run out cheaply, but Kandamby (24) and Mathews put the chase back on track with a 56-run stand for the sixth wicket.
Kandamy was then run out and Thilan Samaraweera followed him back to the pavilion leaving Sri Lanka needing 11 off the last over.
Nehra conceded only seven and claimed the wicket of Mathews as Sri Lanka fell agonisingly short.
In the morning, Sangakkara, had opted to field and would have been encouraged with his team's start as they conceded only 19 from the first five overs. Sehwag had started with a boundary through point, but soon launched his attack by hammering Chanaka Welegedara for three boundaries in the left-arm paceman's third over.
There was no looking back from there as Tendulkar, the calming influence in an opening stand worth 153, also turned a touch aggressive. Relying more on timing and placement, he reached his 92nd ODI half-century by steering Dilhara Fernando past the wicketkeeper for a boundary and was just beginning to open up when he was bowled by Fernando.
Sehwag continued to bustle along, hitting eight fours and two sixes en route to a 34-ball half-century and continued in explosive fashion as he closed in on his 12th century.
He eventually raced past the mark with consecutive blows off Mathews, taking only 66 balls to reach three figures and, together with Dhoni, who promoted himself up the order, continued to flay the bowling.
The second-wicket pair added 156, Dhoni also reaching 50 off 34 deliveries and the duo had looked to stamp their dominance by calling for the batting powerplay in the 35th.
But India lost their way as Sehwag and Dhoni fell within four deliveries of each other, triggering a collapse of sorts. From 309 for one, India slipped to 352 for six, Virat Kohli (27) and Ravindra Jadeja (30 not out) preventing total capitulation.

Tofino would defnately require an overnight stay. It is pricey, and crowded even off-season, a victim of it's success and popularity. Whistler is the same. (My opinion, I prefer to be more solitary.)
I always prefer when I travel to avoid the spots that ALL the tourists go to and find smaller, but still fascinating locales, so I'm going to suggest other options.
An alternate plan could be to go partway across the Island. There is a wildlife rescue centre in Errington - see eagles, bears, racoons, deer... whatever has needed care. Englishman River Park has a large, noisy waterfall that disappears into a crack, and good trails. Goats on the Roof Market in Coombs is a popular spot. The smoked salmon there is my favorite. Lots of other delicacies. A number of other funky shops, a parrot refuge, and a butterfly garden are nearby. Little Qualicum Falls Park has a number of beautiful cascades, and more trails. I think I like it even better than Englishman River. A bit further along is Cameron Lake, more of a picnic spot, but the highway driving along the shore is quite scenic. At the end of the lake is Cathedral Grove, the only spot on the mid-island with old growth trees. Trails and photo opportunities. If you keep going, over a mountain pass, you'll come to Port Alberni, which has McLean Mill, a forestry museum well worth seeing, that you get to by riding a steam train. Port Alberni is about an hour and a half from Nanaimo, if you drive fast and don't stop, but even a few of my suggested stops would make it into a day trip.
If you want to get to the west side of the Island you could stay overnight in or near Port Alberni (Sproat Lake, say), and take the Lady Rose in the morning. It is a freighter/passenger boat that travels down the Alberni inlet to Bamfield. I've taken it a few times, and have seen bears on the shore turning over rocks looking for crabs every time. Bamfield is a tiny fishing village, perched on an inlet. You can stay a few hours and take the boat back the same day, or stay overnight and return the next day. Bamfield doesn't have the sandy beaches and surfing that Tofino does, but because the road to it is pretty bad, it is not crowded or so overpriced.
Sorry to go on for so long, I love my home and am glad to share my experience and opinions. Hope I get to see you in September.

This application claims priority under 35 USC §119(e)(1) of provisional application No. 60/245,877 filed Nov. 3, 2000.
The invention is generally related to the field of forming gate dielectrics for transistors in integrated circuits and more specifically to forming ultra-thin gate dielectrics.
Presently, there is a great demand for shrinking semiconductor devices to provide an increased density of devices on the semiconductor chip that are faster and consume less power. The scaling of devices in the lateral dimension requires vertical scaling as well so as to achieve adequate device performance. This vertical scaling requires the effective electrical thickness of the gate dielectric to be reduced so as to provide the required device performance.
Silicon dioxide has been the preferred gate dielectric material. However, scaling the thickness of SiO2 for gate dielectric applications has placed severe limitations on the oxidation process. Sub-angstrom uniformity across the wafer and thickness control are requirements for the advanced technologies that use these dielectrics. In order to be able to grow these layers on conventional furnaces, the process temperature has to be dropped to less than 850° C. and the oxidant, O2, concentration has to be diluted. This results in the degradation of the electrical properties of the SiO2 dielectric as a result of the presence of a thicker interfacial layer.
The invention is an ultra-thin oxide structure and method. N2O is used as the oxidant for forming the ultra-thin oxide. The low oxidation efficiency of N2O compared to O2 allows the oxidation temperature to be raised to greater than 850° C. while maintaining a reduced growth rate. In a preferred embodiment, hydrogen is added to improve the electrical properties of the oxide. In another embodiment of the invention, a cold wall lamp heater rapid thermal process (RTP) tool is used to form the ultra-thin oxide.
An advantage of the invention is providing a uniform and controlled method for forming a high quality ultra-thin oxide.
This and other advantages will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art having reference to the specification in conjunction with the drawings.
In the drawings:
FIGS. 1A-1D are cross-sectional diagrams of a method for forming a transistor including an ultra-thin oxide according to the invention;
FIG. 2 is a concentration profile of oxygen and nitrogen in a 22 Å dielectric grown in N2O+H2 at 1050° C.;
FIG. 3 is a graph of growth curves for N2O+H2 oxidation at various temperatures;
FIG. 4 is a graph of growth curves for O2+H2 oxidation at various temperatures;
FIG. 5 is a graph of the density of interface states for various oxidation methods;
FIG. 6 is a graph of a CV curve for a 40 Å oxide formed according to an embodiment of the invention;
FIG. 7 is a graph of CV curves for 38 Å-17 Å oxides formed according to the embodiment of the invention;
FIG. 8 is a graph of mobility curves for various oxidation methods; and
FIG. 9 is a graph of the gate leakage current density at 1V above flatband as a function of the equivalent oxide thickness on capacitors with dielectrics formed by various oxidation methods.
The invention will now be described in conjunction with forming a gate dielectric for a MOS transistor. It will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art having reference to the specification that the benefits of the invention may be applied generally to forming ultra-thin oxides.
In an embodiment of the invention, an ultra-thin (<23 Å) oxide is formed using N2O. The low oxidation efficiency of N2O compared to O2 allows the oxidation temperature to be raised to greater than 850° C. The temperature can be raised to 1200° C. Preferably, however, the temperature is kept below 1100° C. At these temperatures, the growth rate of the ultra-thin oxide is such that a controlled growth of 10 Å can be achieved.
Hydrogen is preferably added to the ambient to provide extra improvement in the electrical properties of the dielectric.
Preferably, a reduced pressure is used to form the ultra-thin oxide. A reduced pressure ensures optimum uniformity and controlled growth rates. For example, the pressure may be on the order of 10 Torr.
A process for forming a gate dielectric for a MOS transistor using an embodiment of the invention will now be discussed with reference to FIGS. 1A-1D. Referring to FIG. 1A, a semiconductor body 10 is processed through the formation of isolation structures 12. Semiconductor body 10 comprises a semiconductor substrate (e.g. silicon) with appropriate doping. For example, threshold adjust implants and any desired well regions (not shown) may have been formed. As shown, isolation structures 12 comprise shallow trench isolation. Alternative isolation structures, such as field oxide isolation, are known in the art.
Referring to FIG. 1B, an ultra-thin gate dielectric 14 is formed over semiconductor body 10. Ultra-thin gate dielectric 14 comprises silicon-dioxide. The thickness of ultra-thin gate dielectric 14 is in the range of 7 Å-22 Å as measured by ellipsometry. The equivalent oxide thickness as measured by corona discharge extracted CV curves is in the range of 2 Å-22 Å. Ultra-thin gate dielectric 14 is formed using N2O as the oxidant. In the preferred embodiment, H2 is added to the ambient to improve the electrical properties of dielectric 14.
A variety of tools may be used to form ultra-thin dielectric 14. For example, joule heated furnaces, lamp heated rapid thermal processors and joule heated rapid thermal processors may be used. However, in the preferred embodiment, a cold wall tool, such as a cold wall lamp heated RTP tool, is used. The use of a cold wall tool prevents the decomposition of the N2O molecule anywhere but on the wafer surface. The presence of H2 in the oxidation ambient prevents nitrogen incorporation at the interface. The process results in a nitrogen incorporation of less than 5E13 at/cm2 on a 22 Å film, as shown in FIG. 2.
The above process is able to use a temperature in the range of 850° C.-1150° C. Prior art processes using O2 needed to reduce the temperature to below 850° C. and diluted the oxidant concentration. Temperatures above 900° C. resulted in uncontrolled and non-uniform growth in the prior art O2 process. However, when N2O is used as the oxidant, the temperature can be increased while maintaining good uniformity and controlled growth down to 10 Å. For example, a SiO2 film of 11 Å can be grown at 1050° C. Less than 8 Å can be grown at a temperature of 950° C. FIG. 3 shows the growth curves for N2O+H2 oxidation (oxide thickness versus time) at various temperatures. FIG. 4 shows the growth curves for oxidation in O2+H2. High temperatures are desirable because they result in a thinner interfacial layer (between the dielectric and the substrate). A thin interfacial layer improves the electrical properties of the dielectric.
After forming the ultra-thin gate dielectric 14, a high-k dielectric 15 may optionally be deposited on top of ultra-thin dielectric 14. High-k dielectrics are typically defined as those dielectrics having a dielectric constant greater than silicon dioxide (e.g., >4.0). Examples include silicates, such as Hf silicate or Zr silicate. The gate electrode material 16 is deposited as shown in FIG. 1C. Typically, the gate electrode material comprises polysilicon. For example, gate electrode material 16 may comprise a layer of polysilicon, a barrier layer (e.g., WN or WSiN), and a metal layer (e.g., W). Alternative gate structures are well known in the art.
Gate electrode material 16, optional high-k dielectric 15, and gate dielectric 14 are then patterned and etched to form gate structure 20, as shown in FIG. 1D. Drain extension regions 22, sidewall spacers 24, and source/drain regions 26 may then be formed. It should be noted that many compatible methods are known in the art for completing the formation of transistor 30 and may be used without departing from the scope of the invention.
The N2O oxidation according to the invention results in uniform and controllable growth. The table below shows the target thickness, 3-sigma variation and average thickness for various lots process according to the invention. The process conditions were N2O+1% H2 at a pressure of 12 torr and a temperature of 1050° C.
SiO2 films, such as gate dielectric 14, formed using N2O+H2 have an order of magnitude lower density of interface states (Dit) compared to oxides fabricated by conventional dry O2 furnace and O2+H2 methods. Dit for the various methods are shown in FIG. 5 for an equivalent oxide thickness (EOT) of 36-40 Å. FIG. 6 is a typical CV curve from where the low Dit values for the N2O+H2 oxides were extracted.
The CV curves of N2O+H2 oxides of different thickness (38 Å to 17 Å) are shown in FIG. 7. Small changes in flatband voltage indicate that the films have negligible fixed charges.
Moreover, the peak mobility of transistors 30 fabricated according to the invention, lies on the universal mobility curve, being 9% higher than the one obtained with conventional O2 furnace methods, as shown in FIG. 8. Finally, the dielectrics grown according to the invention result in a 2× reduction in gate leakage versus furnace dry O2 grown oxides of the same equivalent electrical thickness, as can be seen in FIG. 9.
While this invention has been described with reference to illustrative embodiments, this description is not intended to be construed in a limiting sense.
Various modifications and combinations of the illustrative embodiments, as well as other embodiments of the invention, will be apparent to persons skilled in the art upon reference to the description. It is therefore intended that the appended claims encompass any such modifications or embodiments.

2002 Lexus SC430 Recalls
This limited regional recall is for vehicles currently registered or first sold in southern Florida, along the Gulf Coast, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, Saipan and American Samoa. Upon deployment the passenger airbag inflator could rupture, increasing the risk of personal injury. Dealers will replace the passenger side air bag inflator to correct this concern. If a replacement inflator is not available, as an interim measure, the dealer will disable the front passenger air bag and advise the customer not to use the front passenger seat until a replacement inflator is installed.
When deployed, excessive pressure can build in the passenger front airbag. This could cause the inflator to rupture, increasing the risk of personal injury to vehicle occupants. This recall affects both originally installed passenger front airbags as well as those that were installed as replacement service parts. Toyota and General Motors will replace the passenger front airbag inflator on their respective vehicles involved in this recall.
Airbags use a chemical reaction contained in an inflator module to create the pressure necessary to inflate the bags when deployment is required. These vehicles are being recalled because the front passenger airbag inflator may produce excessive internal pressure when deployed. As a result, the inflator module could rupture, causing metal fragments to strike vehicle occupants. Dealers will inspect and replace any defective passenger front airbag inflator module found.

Ward 2 Aldermanic Forum: More than 200 Hear Candidates' Positions and Promises
On January 22, over 200 residents and other Streeterville stakeholders gathered at the Drake Hotel for the SOAR Ward 2 Aldermanic Forum moderated by Bob Reed, director of investigations and programs for the Better Government Association (BGA). In what Reed called a "friendly discussion," the six candidates were asked for their positions on crime, traffic congestion, parks, development and even dogs. All six candidates attended the forum, including Bita Buenrostro, Brian Hopkins, Steve Niketopoulos, Alyx Pattison, Stacey Pfingsten and Cornell Wilson. All six candidates cited many SOAR activities as models for other communities in Ward 2. In particular, the SOAR Streeterville Neighborhood Plan was commended for documenting a vision for the community and SOAR's Streeterville Neighborhood Walks program was singled out for an "eyes on the street" way to help combat crime and enhance safety and security.
Pictured in the photo at left, from left: Bob Reed, Bita Buenrostro, Alyx Pattison, Brian Hopkins, Stacey Pfingsten and Cornell Wilson. At right, Gail Spreen and Mario Hollemans, SOAR vice president and event co-chair, joined the candidates on stage. For other photos go to the SOAR Gallery.
SOAR was extremely grateful to the hospitality extended by Damien McArdle, General Manager of the Drake Hotel, who hosted the forum in the glorious and spectacular Gold Coast Ballroom.

For THE EDGE Malaysia, May 31-June 6 2015 (titled "Democracy is Necessarily Multi-tiered" By OOI KEE BENG It is time we pay careful attention to the essential multi-tieredness of democracy.

Editorial, Penang Monthly June 2015 By OOI KEE BENG It is very sad that the state of Penang is being ignored in the 11th Malaysia Plan (2016-2020). None of the infrastructure projects the Penang government presented for financial support has been accepted by the federal government. Putrajaya seems to imagine that Malaysia will reach advanced … Continue reading

Editorial for Penang Monthly, April 2015 By OOI KEE BENG It is fascinating how seemingly innocuous words actually are not. Especially those that sound neutral, even ethically positive.

By Ooi Kee Beng For The EDGE Malaysia, April 2015 Malaysia is in serious trouble today because the different narratives that have been driving politics in the country for more than half a century have come into direct conflict with each other. This shows more clearly than ever that what was always important for social … Continue reading
By OOI KEE BENG Penang Monthly Editor's Column — March 5, 2015 Democracy is a big word, and like all big words it is given to controversy and misuse.

By OOI KEE BENG for THE EDGE MALAYSIA, 22-28 February 2015 Malaysian political disagreements have deteriorated to a level quite unthinkable in the minds of the founding fathers. Name-calling of the type, "I'm not a racist, you are", is now common, and does no credit to the country's reputation. When childish quarrels take the place … Continue reading

PENANG MONTHLY, Feature Story February 2015 by Ooi Kee Beng Cultures are defined by their literature. In fact, in Chinese – classical or modern – the same term is used for both.

By OOI KEE BENG, Editorial for Penang Monthly, January 2015 No one can doubt that Penang is going through a very dynamic period today.

By Ooi Kee Beng, for THE EDGE Malaysia, 21 December 2014 There is no doubt that the standard of English in Malaysia has fallen badly over the last few decades.

By OOI KEE BENG For THE EDGE Malaysia, November 30-December 5, 2015 Merdeka is the country's most important word. It defines the country's original aspirations and means a great deal to older Malaysians.

By OOI KEE BENG, Editorial for Penang Monthly, December 2014 Education is a key issue in nation building; and in no other country has that been more evident than in Malaysia where so much contestation since the 1950s has been about school types and the language of instruction. As soon as self-governance was obtained in … Continue reading
By OOI KEE BENG, Editorial for Penang Monthly, November 2014 Let's get serious about global communication.

By Ooi Kee Beng, for The Edge Malaysia, 27 October 2014. South of China, east of India and north of Australia, much is about to happen.

By Ooi Kee Beng For The Edge, Kuala Lumpur, September 29, 2014 It is indeed a heavy sign of the times that more and more ex-leaders are adopting the Internet as the preferred avenue for publicising their views.

By Ooi Kee Beng Editorial, Penang Monthly, October 2014 At a time when journalism—as a social activity more than a salaried profession—is booming beyond measure in Malaysia—a fact proven by heightened contestations in the public domain, and by government attempts to intimidate and harass all types of non-supporters, it is important that we pause and … Continue reading

Politically, … Continue reading
By Ooi Kee Beng For THE EDGE, Kuala Lumpur, 25 August 2014 Multiracialism does not come by chance. It is always an expression of the populated territory's geopolitical history.

By OOI KEE BENG Editorial in PENANG MONTHLY, August 2014 Watching the recent World Cup matches brought to my mind the snug relationship between Form and Flair. Football seen on the TV screen shows clearly how different formations—of 4-3-3 or 4-4-2—function differently, and how each of these hold different possibilities and different limitations. Now, if … Continue reading
By OOI KEE BENG For THE EDGE MALAYSIA, 3 August 2014 The whole region held its breath as it waited for the final result of Indonesia's fifth presidential election to be announced on 22 July, 2014.

By OOI KEE BENG Editorial for Penang Monthly, July 2014. A CLEAR CONNECTION seems to exist between an economy's health, on the one hand, and that society's handling of religious and ethnic minorities, on the other. In fact, I would venture that one can best identify a society in crisis by studying the xenophobic tendencies … Continue reading
By Ooi Kee Beng For THE EDGE Malaysia, 30 July 2014 A wave of pessimism and dejection has been pervading Malaysia for quite a long time now.

By OOI KEE BENG For The Edge, Malaysia, May 25, 2014 What seems to have happened in Malaysian politics since 2008 is that we have a voter population that is divided right down the middle, and given the nature of the game, this situation is expected to remain for quite a while. We have a … Continue reading
SINGAPORE'S ruling People's Action Party (PAP) has never been one to take chances. Believing in its ability to identify society's best talents and recruit them into its ranks, the party developed scant respect for the electoral democracy inherent in the country's political structure. Its ever powerful control of the mass media, its unconstrained changing of … Continue reading
TODAY, Singaporeans go to the polls. Nothing strange about that, they do this every fifth year or so. And given the dominance of the ruling People's Action Party (PAP), its impressive track record of building the island state into a powerful economy, its control over the apparatus of state, its pre-emptive nature especially where elections … Continue reading
INDEED, becoming literate used to be one of the best career moves anyone could make. In ancient China for example, extended families would concentrate their resources to make the smartest kid amongst them as literate in the classics as he – not she – could be. That way, he might pass the imperial exams, become … Continue reading
THE results of the Sarawak state elections last weekend were extraordinary in the sense that one cannot strictly say that they were expected. Nor can one claim that they were unexpected. This in truth reflects how uncertain things seemed during the 10 days of campaigning. Wishful thinking mixed freely with insider information, and strategic statements … Continue reading
JUDGING from recent events, the ruling coalition in the Malaysian state of Sarawak is feeling very unsure of its ability to retain its two-third majority in tomorrow's state election. Not only are the rallies of the Barisan Nasional (BN) not drawing the crowds, its candidates are failing to excite voters except through offers of money … Continue reading

LIKE people in most developing countries, Malaysians suffer automobiles not only as a necessary tool for modern living, but as a purported key driver of the economy. Having a car-making industry supposedly generates an army of suppliers of parts from simple nuts and bolts to sophisticated electronics.

THE UNESCO decision to put Penang jointly with Malacca on its World Heritage List two years ago signified a few fascinating things.

By Ooi Kee Beng THE PASSING of Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu in November last year threw a challenge to all serious scholars of Malaysian history. Not much has so far been written about him.

LIKE MOST new countries founded after colonialism's fall, Malaysia lacks good historical studies about itself that are based on solid empirical data. No doubt, some do exist, but they tend to emerge at certain fixed levels. Either they are officially sanctioned hagiographies, academic works clothed in cautious terms, or memoirs by retirees who are unable to … Continue reading
Editorial for December 2011 By Ooi Kee Beng, Something that increasingly troubles me is the received supposition that urbanites are cosmopolitan by virtue of being urbanites. Not only does that bias attribute what in modern eyes is a morally desirable quality to the mere experience of living in densely populated areas, it also assigns the … Continue reading
Editorial, November 2011, By Ooi Kee Beng IN THE DAYS before nation states, polities in Southeast Asia were largely trading ports. These dots, constituted the maritime routes along which fortune-seekers of old travelled.

Editorial, September 2011 By OOI KEE BENG THE BIGGEST trick that the nation-state concept has pulled on modern man is the proposal that there is an essential line between the external and the internal. Sovereignty over precisely demarcated physical territory is the underlying notion. It is here the nation-state is most easily understood. And so, … Continue reading
By Ooi Kee Beng for Penang Monthly, July 8, 2010. A politician may point the way, but without competent and dedicated civil servants to do the work, not much gets done. This gets truer the more adventurous the politician's goals are. So, when Dr Lim Chong Eu envisaged Penang as the production base for international … Continue reading

Last-Minute Christmas Candle Centerpiece Ideas
Learn how to create Christmas decorations and centerpieces using candles.
Designer Nadia Ramirez demonstrates how to create Christmas decorations and last-minute centerpieces using candles.
Votive Wreath Candles
individual tart pans
6-hour votive candles
candle rings
1. Place one candle into each tart pan and top with a candle ring of your choice.
All of these items can be bought at craft and kitchen-supply stores. Feature the wreath candles at place settings or along the fireplace mantel. This centerpiece is perfect for the coffee table, dining-room table or even a bathroom, where the warm glow of the candles and potpourri scents will give the room a cozy feel.
Holiday Centerpiece
large three-wick pillar candle
glass fruit bowl
holiday-colored potpourri
1. Place the candle in the center of a glass fruit bowl and surround it with potpourri.
2. Add dried fruit pieces or evergreen pieces as additional decoration if you prefer.
This arrangement takes only minutes to throw together.
Last-Minute Centerpiece
wall mirror
3-pillar candles
fresh cranberries
1. Place the candles on the mirror surface and surround with cranberries. This centerpiece looks great on the coffee table or on a kitchen countertop.
Decorative Outdoor Candle
mason jar
thin wire
needle-nose pliers
small amount of sand
6-hour candle
artificial greenery
long matches
1. Wrap wire in a few layers around the rim of the mason jar and tighten with pliers. Double-wrap a strand of wire to serve at the handle and attach around the rim as well.
2. Pour sand into the bottom of the glass to the height at which you would like the candle to rest. Place the candle inside the jar.
3. Insert greenery between the wire and rim of the jar all around the rim. Greenery should also be wrapped around the length of the handle.
4. Use the long matches to light the candle. These candles look gorgeous on a walkway, hanging from a fence post or from trees leading up to the home.

iPhone activation problems widespread, serious (updated x3)
Following yesterday's rollout of Apple's iPhone on AT&T's wireless mobile phone network, many once-excited customers found themselves frustrated and disappointed after activation-related delays prevented use of their new $499 and $599 devices. As pointed out by iLounge reader Steve Rubel, and confirmed by two iLounge editors with similar issues, a large number of first-day iPhone customers have fanned out across the Internet to describe failures by AT&T to properly start service on the new phones. The issues are officially being attributed to overwhelming demand for the iPhone, and an AT&T representative confirmed to iLounge this morning that "virtually all AT&T stores sold out" of iPhone yesterday; spot checks this morning indicated that Apple Stores, which generally received much larger allocations of iPhones, vary from sold out of one capacity (typically 8GB) to having either or both in stock.
The iPhone, which requires a one-time download of iTunes 7.3, must go through a several-step online activation process before any of its iPod, Internet, or phone features can be used. Failure to activate the phone renders it useful only for "emergency calls," and disables the remainder of its features; the activation process must be repeated, with fewer steps, each time the phone's software is updated. If AT&T's automated service, linked to through iTunes, fails to activate or re-activate the phone in a prompt manner, it will not be usable.
Discussions on Apple's support forms now describe quoted wait times of "up to 24 hours" for activation, as well as numerous other issues relating to conversion of Individual Plans to Family Plans. Though 5 of our 7 iPhones activated properly, iLounge's editors are currently attempting to get activation issues resolved with the other 2, and will update this article as appropriate.
Update: A second AT&T representative has told iLounge that a team of AT&T engineers has been manually working around the clock to process the flood of delayed activation requests experienced last night, which were described as falling into the "change of account type from individual to family" and "number portability" categories. Wait times range from 6 to 9 to 24 hours based on the category of account change; iLounge received a "24 hours" notice on a ported number. More straightforward iPhone accounts are typically set up via iTunes in minutes.
Updates 2 and 3: One of iLounge's 2 long-activation iPhones was activated successfully after 18 hours. The other took roughly 40 hours, and five phone calls, since the first attempt on Friday night, and has now been fully activated.

Sad to read this story. I was hoping he'd come back late in the season. Skov is a great player.
P.S. Is the PA Weekly's copy editor on sabbatical? Talk about poor proof reading.

More > without limit on a new material called paper, expanding the possibilities and audiences for images and texts of all kinds. This publication, which brings to light little-seen masterpieces from the Sheldon Museum of Art's collection, explores the three major print techniques of the early modern period: woodcut, engraving, and etching. Along the way, it suggests not only how the print revolution evolved as it spread across Europe and the British Isles, but also how it gave rise to images that are intimate and public, sacred and secular. These pictures, which transformed the everyday lives of their original users, remind us of the many ways in which print technology continues to shape our own.< Less

Comments about Lil' Momeni Classic Circus Collection Area Rug - Baby Blue:
We stumbled upon this rug after many frustrating trips to the store (and online) in search of the perfect rug for my three-year-old's room. He has a brown faux finish on the walls and I needed something to complement the walls but also brighten the room up and make sure it was masculine. Well the soft earth tones in this rug are a perfect focal point for his room, he loves the train design and actually comes home from school to run around the border! The great price didn't hurt either!

Support industry a priority: President
HA NOI (VNS) — President Truong Tan Sang yesterday asked relevant agencies and the capital administration to facilitate the completion of the Ha Noi Support Industry Park (HANSSIP).
He made the statement while visiting the park, which is located in the capital's Phu Xuyen District, and will be the first large-scale support industry park of Viet Nam once completed.
Representatives from enterprises attending the meeting expressed their hope that relevant state agencies would create favourable conditions for them in terms of capital, interest rate, tax policies to facilitate the operation of the park.
The president affirmed that the establishment of support industry parks is one of the State and Party's priorities, which will help enhance the development of the production industry and contribute to the country's modernisation and industrialisation cause.
He also said that starting support industry zones at this time were already late compared to other countries in the region, given the soon-to-be-implemented agreements in Viet Nam.
Thus, he called on relevant agencies and local administration to pave the way for enterprises and for the park to become operational soon. Support policies, especially those regarding tax issue, should be issued to attract investment from foreign and domestic enterprises.
The Ha Noi Southern Support Industry Park is designated for plants to produce auxilary products for the manufacturing engineering, garment and textile, footwear, electronics and informatics, auto production and assembly sectors.
The park will also include trade centres, banks and schools and provide logistical and healthcare services.
Once operational, HANSSIP is expected to attract some 200 investors, creating around 30,000 jobs. — VNS

Originally written on Mets Merized Online | Last updated 11/12/12
Thoughts from Joe D. Well isn't this an interesting way to interrupt my Sunday AMC "Gory Matters Here" marathon? I'm not seeing or buying what is being reported. I hate having to rehash all this stuff again, but the Mets are getting fiscally better everyday. I already told you last month, about the new National MLB Broadcast deal that's infuses another $40-50 million a year into the team. The host city for the All Star Game gets a huge chunk of all the sponsorship money that is pouring in by the hundreds of millions. Last year they lost $70 million and this year they lost only $20 million. You may not think that's much, but to lenders and investment bankers, this is huge. The SNY loans are being refinanced (just like I said they would be in 2011) as we speak for significantly lower interest rates as well as lower monthly payments, and the Wilpons will bankroll tens of millions in cash out money and dividend payments. Just last week the Mets brought back the Gulf Coast Affiliate th...

Antigay Bakery Happy to Provide Ex-Gay Cakes to Ministry
BY Daniel Reynolds
July 24 2014 3:15 PM ET
An Oregon bakery that refuses to bake wedding cakes for same-sex couples is now proudly touting cakes made for an ex-gay organization.
Sweet Cakes by Melissa, which rose to national attention and drew the ire of civil rights organizations in 2013 for refusing to make a cake for a lesbian couple's wedding, posted a photo to its Facebook page of baked goods commissioned for Restored Hope, a religious organization that advocates for gay conversion therapy.
"Cakes for Restored Hope Network. What a wonderful ministry!" the caption to a photo of five cakes adorned with the group's logo read, in addition to offering a link to the antigay group.
Restored Hope, which is helmed by "ex-lesbian" Anne Paulk, rose to prominence after the demise of Exodus International, formerly one of the most prominent ex-gay groups in the nation advocating for the belief that gay people can be turned straight through prayer, counseling, and "treatment."
Last week, Paulk, whose former ex-gay husband recently came out as gay again, claimed that the HIV and AIDS epidemic was directly linked to "any government (state or federal) that encourages men to have sex with other men and does not allow those with unwanted same-sex attraction to receive talk therapy," adding that this government would be "a willing partner to their death."
The religious beliefs espoused by Sweet Cakes, which owner Aaron Klein cited as the primary reason for not baking a cake for a same-sex couple, have been challenged in the past. Last year, two undercover reporters from Portland alternative weekly paper Willamette Week discovered the bakery operators were happy to bake goods for celebrations of other things conservatives traditionally scorn, including parties for divorce, a pagan solstice, and stem-cell research.

The three Louisiana pension funds that invested with troubled hedge fund Fletcher Asset Management have sued its administrator and auditor.
The Louisiana Firefighters' Retirement System, Louisiana Employees Retirement System and New Orleans Firefighters' Pension and Relief Fund allege that Citco Fund Services misled them about the Fletcher International Fund's structure and health. The three pensions invested $100 million with Fletcher in 2008, with the promise of a 12% annual return.
According to the pensions, if Fletcher failed to produce those returns, the difference would be covered by $50 million from Citco. In addition, the pensions said that Citco assured them that their investment was gaining value, growing to as much as $125 million.
But when the hedge funds sought to redeem their money, they received IOUs instead of cash. They have since successfully battled to have the Fletcher fund liquidated in the Cayman Islands and to have a receiver appointed in the U.S., but are still likely facing substantial losses.
If Citco has provided "accurate information," the pensions said, they would have "exercised their right of redemption and demanded payment."
As for Fletcher's former auditor, Grant Thornton, which resigned in March 2010 and nine months later admitted that its original audits were not accurate, the pensions allege that "it was complicit in the cover up of the misrepresentations and omissions."
The pensions also named several Citco subsidiaries, Fletcher itself and several executives, as well as Consulting Services Group, the firm that touted Fletcher to the pension funds. The pensions fired that firm earlier this year.
