KDE 4.3 and Kubuntu
KDE 4.3 is out on the streets, but so far it hasn't made its way into the major distros. This month's DVD includes a special version of Kubuntu 9.04 featuring the brand new KDE 4.3 desktop. Get to know the latest KDE from the comfort of a stable, full-release version of Kubuntu. The Live boot option lets you sample the newest KDE without disturbing your hard drive.
KDE 4.3 includes a new default theme and important updates to onboard applications such as KMail, the Krunner application launcher, and the Dolphin file manager.
As a special bonus, the flip side of this month's DVD comes with Slackware 13.0. The famous Slackware, which has long been a favorite of Unix veterans and old-guard admins, emerges from "…one of the most intense developments in Slackware history …" [6] to roll out a new release with Xfce 4.6.1 and plenty of extras for desktop users as well as the IT set.

A trench type power MOSFET has a thin vertical gate oxide along its side walls and a thickened oxide with a rounded bottom at the bottom of the trench to provide a low RDSON and increased VDSMAX and VGSMAX and a reduced Miller capacitance. The walls of the trench are first lined with nitride to permit the growth of the thick bottom oxide to, for example 1000 Å to 1400 Å and the nitride is subsequently removed and a thin oxide, for example 320 Å is regrown on the side walls. In another embodiment, the trench bottom in amorphized and the trench walls are left as single crystal silicon so that oxide can be grown much faster and thicker on the trench bottom than on the trench walls during an oxide growth step. A reduced channel length of about 0.7 microns is used. The source diffusion is made deeper than the implant damage depth so that the full 0.7 micron channel is along undamaged silicon. A very lightly doped diffusion of 1000 Å to 2000 Å in depth could also be formed around the bottom of the trench and is depleted at all times by the inherent junction voltage to further reduce Miller capacitance and switching loss.

This application is related to and claims priority to Provisional Application Ser. No. 60/194,386 filed Apr. 4, 2000 in the name of Naresh Thapar.
This invention relates to power MOSFET devices and their methods of manufacture, and more specifically relates to such devices with reduced RDSON, reduced gate capacitance and increased gate breakdown voltage.
In present trench type power MOSFET devices, a vertical gate oxide is formed simultaneously within the vertical walls of the trench and at the trench bottom. In order to provide a low RDSON, the vertical oxide should be relatively thin. However, the gate to drain capacitance is determined by the thickness of the gate oxide at the trench bottom, and the gate breakdown voltage VGSMAX is limited by the curvatures of the oxide at the trench bottom corner. Thus, the desire for a thin vertical gate oxide for low RDSON is contradictory to the need of a thick oxide at the bottom of the trench for improved VGSMAX and a low gate to drain capacitance. It would be desirable to harmonize these trade-offs.
A further problem exists in present trench type power MOSFETS due to the conventional formation of the channel and source diffusions. Thus, these regions are usually formed by an implant followed by the diffusion. The implants are known to cause surface damage which extends to a particular depth, depending on the process variables. Therefore, the vertical channel, which extends from the point at which the source intersects the trench wall to the bottom of the channel diffusion, will include damaged silicon caused by the earlier implants. This then increases threshold voltage and increases the channel resistance. It would be desirable to avoid the influence of implant damage on the conduction channel of the device.
A still further problem exists in current power MOSFETs in that the inherent Miller capacitance of the structure increases the gate charge QG of the device and thus increases switching loss. It would be desirable to reduce Miller capacitance to reduce switching loss.
In accordance with a first aspect of this invention, a novel structure and process are provided which result in the production of a thick gate oxide at the bottom of the trench and a significantly thinner gate oxide along its vertical wall. Thus, a trench is first etched in conventional fashion, through a source diffusion layer and channel diffusion layer and the trench walls and bottom have a silicon nitride coating deposited thereon. A thermally grown pad oxide may be formed before depositing the silicon nitride. The silicon nitride at the bottom surface of the trench is then reactively etched away, and a silicon dioxide layer is then grown on the exposed silicon at the bottom of the trench. The bottom oxide layer is grown to any desired thickness, for example, 1000 Å to 1400 Å in comparison to the conventional oxide thickness of about 320 Å used for the side wall gate oxide in the conventional device. During its growth, the oxide and the silicon at the corners of the trench round out to smooth or round the otherwise sharp bottom corners of the trench.
In another embodiment of the invention, the thicker bottom oxide is formed by amorphizing the trench bottom by using a heavy dose ion implantation (for example 1E16 atoms/cm2) of a neutral species ion, for example, Argon, after the trench etch. This process makes use of the fact that amorphized silicon oxidizes 3 or 4 times faster than the single crystal silicon surface along the vertical trench walls.
Thereafter, the silicon nitride layer remaining on the trench walls is removed by a wet etch which leaves the thick bottom oxide layer intact. A thin gate oxide (320 Å for example) is then grown on the exposed side walls.
The resulting structure has the desired thick bottom oxide and rounded silicon bottom for increased VDSMAX and VGSMAX and reduced Miller capacitance; and a thin gate oxide on the trench walls for reduced RDSON.
The channel length of the new device is also reduced to about 0.7 microns (from 1.2 microns for the same voltage in the prior art).
In forming the source and channel diffusions, the impurity atoms are implanted into the silicon and diffused before forming the trench. When the diffusions are shallow, as for a low voltage device with a reduced channel length (for example, 0.5 microns) part of the blocking voltage is held off only by the channel. However, the channel may include silicon along the trench wall which was damaged during the implant process. In accordance with a further feature of the invention, the source diffusion in a short channel low voltage MOSFET is made intentionally deeper than the implant damage depth. In this way, the full channel length will be along undamaged silicon so that threshold voltage and RDSON characteristics are unaffected by silicon crystal implant damage.
As a still further feature of the invention, and to further reduce Miller capacitance, a very lightly doped P−− or N−− diffusion of about 1000 Å to about 2000 Å in depth is formed around the bottom of the trench. The P−− diffusion will be depleted at all times by the inherent junction voltage, thus reducing Miller capacitance and switching loss. This concept is applicable to planer devices as well as trench devices.
FIG. 1A is a cross-section of a trench with a P−−/N−− implant to reduce Miller capacitance.
FIG. 1B shows an alternative embodiment to the structure of FIG. 1A.
FIG. 2 is a cross-section of one cell element of a planar geometry chip with the novel P−−/N−− implant.
FIG. 3 shows a silicon chip with a trench at a stage of processing in which the trench has a thick silicon dioxide layer on its bottom and a silicon nitride layer on its walls.
FIG. 4 shows the structure of FIG. 3 after the nitride layer is removed from the walls and is replaced by a thin oxide.
FIG. 5 shows the trench structure of FIG. 4 in which a reduced channel length is used with the source diffusion being deeper than the depth of the implant damage.
Referring first to FIG. 1A, there is shown in cross-section, a very small portion of a trench MOSFET at an early stage of its manufacture. Thus, an N+ chip 10 of monocrystalline silicon is first prepared and an N− layer 11 of epitaxially grown silicon is formed thereon. A P− dopant is then implanted and diffused into the top of layer 11 to form P− channel diffusion 12 to a given depth. Thereafter, an N+ source impurity is implanted through a suitable mask to form spaced N+ source regions such as source region 13 which are also diffused to a given depth. Source region 13 may have any desired topology and can be a stripe or a cell or the like.
Thereafter, trenches such as trench 20 are etched in the silicon, and a silicon dioxide gate layer 21 having a thickness of about 320 Å is grown along the walls and bottom of the trench 20. A conductive polysilicon gate 22 is formed within trench 20 and the top of the polysilicon 22 is capped with an oxide cap 23.
A source electrode 24 is then formed over the top surface of the device and in contact with source regions 13 and channel region 12. A drain metal 25 is also applied to the bottom of body 10.
It is to be noted that the same elements in FIGS. 1A, 1B and 2 to 5 carry the same identifying numerals.
The structure described to this point is the well known trench MOSFET structure. In accordance with a first feature of the invention, and to reduce Miller capacitance (the capacitance between gate and drain) and thus QG for increased speed, a very lightly doped P−−/N−−− diffusion 30 is formed in the trench wall before or after the gate oxide step but before the formation of polysilicon 22. The diffusion depth is preferably 1000 Å to 2000 Å deep. This P−− diffusion 30 will have a concentration sufficiently low to be at all times depleted by the built-in junction voltage to substrate 11, thereby reducing Miller capacitance.
FIG. 2 shows that the same diffusion 30 can be used in an otherwise conventional planar MOSFET structure having gate oxide 40, polysilicon 31, LTO layer 42 and the source metal 24.
FIG. 1B shows a further embodiment of the invention of FIGS. 1A and 2 in which the P−− diffusion of FIG. 1A is replaced by a 3 micron deep N−− region 50 which receives trench 20 and acts like a very thin N type depletion layer. N−− region 50 has a concentration of about 1�1014 atoms/cm3 and will be fully depleted by the built-in junction charge.
The doping concentration for P−− region 30 of FIGS. 1A and 2 can be produced by an implant dose of about 1�1012 atoms/cm2. By comparison, N−− region 50 is 50 Ωcm and N+ region 11 is 0.003 ohm cm material.
FIGS. 3 and 4 show a novel structure and process for reducing the gate-to-drain capacitance of the device by using a thick bottom oxide but thin side wall oxide in the trench, thus preserving low on-resistance. More specifically, in prior art trench devices, the bottom oxide thickness was that of the side wall thickness which is about 320 Å. In accordance with the present invention, the bottom oxide layer is increased in thickness to 1000 Å to 1400 Å and the trench is rounded at the trench corners to increase the drain/source breakdown voltage and gate-drain breakdown voltage at those corners.
Thus, after the trench 20 is formed in FIG. 3, its walls and bottom are lined with silicon nitride as by a conventional Si3N4 deposition process. The nitride at the bottom of the trench is then removed, using a suitable reactive etch process, leaving intact the nitride on the trench walls, shown as nitride layers 60 in FIG. 3. Thereafter, oxide is grown on the exposed silicon bottom of trench 20, forming the thick oxide layer 61 in FIG. 3. Layer 61 may have a thickness if from 1000 Å to 1400 Å (by way of example) and, fortuitously, will create rounded edges 62, 63 (or a rounded trench bottom periphery if the trench is polygonal in cross-section). Thereafter, the nitride 60 of FIG. 3 is removed by a suitable nitride etch, for example, H3PO4 which leaves intact the oxide 61. A thin gate oxide 62 (FIG. 4) may then be grown on the exposed side walls of trench 20 to a thickness of 300 Å to 320 Å.
In another embodiment of the invention, after the trench 20 is formed, a heavy dose implant (for example, 1E16 atoms/cm2) of a neutral species, (for example, Argon) is applied to the bottom of the trench only, converting the singe crystal silicon at the trench bottom to an amorphized silicon. An oxide growth step then takes place of growing oxide on the single crystal trench walls and on the amorphized bottom trench surface. The oxide on the amorphized silicon grows about 3 to 4 times faster than on the trench walls, thus providing the trench with the desired thickened bottom.
The device is then completed in the well known manner by the formation of the polysilicon gate and source and drain electrodes.
The resulting device will have reduced gate-to-drain capacitance and will have improved voltage withstand ability because of the thick oxide 61 and the rounded trench bottom edges, rather than the sharper trench edges of the prior art.
It is desirable for devices such as that of FIG. 4 to have a shorter channel length while still holding off reverse voltage in the channel only. Thus, it was conventional for low voltage trench MOSFETs to use a channel length along the trench wall of about 1.3 microns. It has been found, as shown in FIG. 5, that a reduced channel length can be used, for example, 0.7 microns. To make such devices, it becomes necessary to consider that the channel may include a significant length of implant induced damage caused during the implant of P− region 12 and N+ source region 13. In accordance with another aspect of the present invention, the source region 13 is intentionally diffused to a depth greater than the depth of the implant damage. In this way, the full reduced length channel is in undamaged silicon so that it can better hold off full source to drain voltage.
Although the present invention has been described in relation to particular embodiments thereof, many other variations and modifications and other uses will become apparent to those skilled in the art. It is preferred, therefore, that the present invention be limited not by the specific disclosure herein, but only by the appended claims.

The business - Patrick Hosking sheds no tears for Michael Green
Carlton's Michael Green deserved to be ditched. Not because he made bad TV, but because he was a bad
Carlton's Michael Green deserved to be ditched. Not because he made bad TV, but because he was a bad
by Patrick Hosking Published
Shed no tears for Michael Green. Ignore the nonsense being peddled by his friends that he was unfairly ambushed by nasty, anonymous City suits. Scoff at the canard that an innocent businessman has been toppled by powerful interests accountable to no one. Blow a raspberry at the claim that shareholders are meddling in things that are none of their business.
For non-luvvies among NS readers, it should be explained that Green, chairman of the media group Carlton Communications, was humiliated the other day when Carlton and its putative merger partner Granada announced that he would not, after all, be given the chairmanship of the combined group, to be called ITV plc. The U-turn was the result of a spectacular coup orchestrated by Fidelity International's fund manager Anthony Bolton. He rallied support from some of the biggest institutional investors in the City, including Legal & General, Schroders and Norwich Union. There have been similar revolts before. But never has the ultimatum been so brutal, nor the line of heavyweight investors queuing up to wield the knife so lengthy. The affair had added piquancy because the rest of the Carlton board, led by the former banker Sir Brian Pitman, snubbed the investors and stood by their man, only to change their minds 36 hours later.
The story is not yet over. As I write, there have been no departures from the Carlton board, but several directors must be itching to resign in disgust. The whole merger could even be jeopardised.
There were many good reasons for ditching Green. There are serious doubts that he could work harmoniously with his bitter enemy Charles Allen, the chief executive-elect. A chief executive in all but name, Green's elevation to chairman of the new company would also have breached boardroom rules.
But the clincher is that, in recent years, Green has simply been a bad businessman. I don't mean bad for TV programme quality or bad as a man manager, though both accusations could fairly be levelled at him. I mean he has been bad at the whole point of capitalism - making money for his shareholders. This has been true not just over the past three years, which have been tough for everyone, but over the long term. An investment of £1,000 in Carlton shares 15 years ago, with all dividends reinvested, will have grown to just £1,046 today.
The lowliest savings account would have been more fruitful. The average stock-market investment has much more than doubled over the same period, even before reinvesting dividends, as has the average media share. Despite owning the lucrative weekday ITV franchise for London during a period of unparalleled prosperity for the capital, despite being allowed to merge with other ITV franchises (mini-monopolies every one), despite having an enviably entrenched position in a fast-growing industry, Carlton has failed.
You, I and anyone with a pension scheme, endowment policy or stock-market ISA are poorer as a result. Green (base pay £707,000) has to accept responsibility for that. That he should be rewarded with the prize of chairing the merged ITV should have been unthinkable from the start. It is rubbish to say that unaccountable institutions are meddling in what does not concern them. They were interfering not in the minutiae of the business, but in the choice of the most powerful force in the boardroom. Surely the owners of a business should have a say in who runs it.
It is true that institutional investors are shamefully divorced from the ordinary savers whose funds they oversee. But they are at least starting to intervene on their behalf when it would be easier to do nothing. Institutional investors used to fear any public confrontation with company directors lest it should jeopardise the valuable pension fund mandates in their gift. That they are cautiously sticking their heads above the parapet at all is very good news.
Perhaps all the flak fired at non-executive company directors has influenced Sir Edward George in his choice of retirement jobs. Given his credentials, the former governor of the Bank of England could have had virtually any post. Within weeks of his three-month purdah ending last month, he has accepted three part-time offers, which will pay him in the region of £250,000 per year.
Curiously, however, none is with a conventional listed UK blue chip. His new employers are the merchant bank N M Rothschild, the Duke of Westminster's property company Grosvenor Group (both privately owned and unlisted) and Nestle (Swiss). The strictly limited disclosure rules that apply to unlisted companies and Swiss ones, and the long distance to Vevey, should ensure Steady Eddie has a nice quiet time of it, without much bother from the British financial press.

35 year old woman | Humble, TX, USA | Seeking men 34-48 within 50 miles
extraordinary , down to earth, independent ,outgoing woman who loves to have fun and meet new people.
Looking to meet new friends and if more becomes that's fine I am a very passionate person. Life is short and I believe you shouldn't take it for granite. I live to make a difference in peoples lives and make the most of everyday. I give 100% in everything and expect nothing less from anyone in my life.....including my kids and friends. I love being spontaneous and having spontaneous people in my life. Relationships are work and depend on the effort put into it in order for it to survive. It doesn't matter if its a serious relationship or just friends, i'm always looking for way to make sure they KNOW they mean something and are special. I go to the gym 5 days a week (3 am). I like to have fun in everything that I do and would love to find someone who enjoys fitness like I do! I love to travel, going to the movies, watching UFC, football, skydiving, going to the range, and concerts. Music is a passion just like water, so I listen to music daily (more than I watch tv) and I am always sitting out by the pool or near a window that looks out to the pool. New to Texas and although I really miss the Florida Gulf Coast, Houston is slowly growing on me. Please don't send me your number right off the bat. I will not respond. I want to chat a bit before jumping to number exchanges. If you cant handle that keep looking. But if interested, turn your chat on and lets get to know each other ;-)
Cooking , Dining out , Fishing/Hunting , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Nightclubs/Dancing , Playing cards , Shopping/Antiques , Travel/Sightseeing , Volunteering , Watching sports , Wine tasting
Basketball, Billiards / Pool, Dancing, Football, Martial arts, Running, Swimming, Walking / Hiking, Weights / Machines
I exercise 5 or more times per week.
I have Cats, Dogs
Im actually allergic to cats but love them. I cannot however stand to smell a little box so its kept up daily and outta sight! I have a teacup morkie.....yes a girl dog but I don't ever have to let her out during the winter so it works!
Middle of the Road
im new to the area so it would be fun to meet people who could show me around
music and water
I love to travel, going to the beach (nice beaches in FL), relaxing by the pool, BBQs, concerts, sports events, shooting pool, and going to the movies...I listen to music more than I watch TV. Music and water two big passions.
I don't put a lot of time in reading. But last would be 50 shades

'Mummy' Sequel Unwraps New Star
According to Variety, 26-year-old Aussie actor Luke Ford has been cast as the son of the 38-year-old Fraser's Rick O'Connell.
In the sequel, Rick and his son Alex are wandering around Asia when they find a new mummy (
"We may spin off into a complete father-son direction with Brendan, but by getting an actor who is in his 20s and not a teenager, we can also put the future on his shoulders," new "Mummy" director Rob Cohen ("Stealth") tells Variety.
That is to say that if Fraser decides that he's done after three movies, Ford might be ready to move to the lead. Oscar winner
Production on "The Mummy 3" will begin at the end of July in Montreal before moving to location shoots in China. Universal has set a July 2008 release date.
Ford, who isn't to be confused with the notorious Judaism/pornography blogger of the same name, has appeared in "Kokoda" and "Junction Boys." He's just completed work opposite

Report: Greg Schiano refers to pre-Schiano Bucs as 'laughingstock'
Greg Schiano, among those who ran off quarterback Josh Freeman in a display that reminded me of a coach trying to coach NFL players the same way he coached college players, continues to … well … I'm not really sure what the hell he's trying to do here.
According to the Pewter Report, Schiano told suite ticket holders on Thursday that the team was a laughingstock before he arrived and that's why he was hired.
Oh, and this.
Schiano said to season ticket holders this morning this "situation needed Greg Schiano."— Pewter Report (@PewterReport) October 3, 2013
In case you've missed it, that's a third-person reference.
Just in case you've forgotten, the Buccaneers nearly agreed to terms with Chip Kelly to be their head coach before the now-Eagles coach rebuffed the organization and returned to coach for another year at Oregon. Yeah, Schiano wasn't the team's first choice.
And in case Schiano needs a reminder, here's his career NFL win-loss percentage.
Now, just for comparison's sake, here was the percentage of previous Buccaneers coach Raheem Morris.
So, um yeah, Morris' actually is better. Pretty funny for a laughingstock, right?

Album review: Various artists - 'Mary Anne Hobbs Presents Wild Angels' (Planet Mu)
Mainstream radio's queen of extreme electronica shows her pickingsMore on Various Artists
7 / 10 As Radio 1's champion of electronic music's extremities, Mary Anne Hobbs proves the licence fee isn't only frittered away on Jonathan Ross. This compilation strays into beardy territory with the fractured hip-hop of Mike Slott and the Fennesz-esque strummings of Sunken Foal standing out among the forests of Warp-informed electronica. But from Rustie's rootless 'Zig-Zag' recreating the feeling of too much weed and Red Stripe to the garage-indebted playoff between rubbery bassline and skittish 16-bit flourishes of Brackles' 'LHC', there's enough gut-smashing mid-range dollops to make 'Wild Angels' an essential briefing on the current state of bass music.

Renfrewshire Council admitted breaching Section 3(1) of the Health And Safety At Work Act 1974 when Margaret O'Donnell suffered arm and thigh fractures in the fall. It happened while workers were installing a new central heating boiler in her flat in Paisley in 2010.
Paisley Sheriff Court was told each boiler installation is normally completed in a day and involves a hatch cut in the floorboards to allow access to pipe work and cabling.
Following the case, HSE Inspector Russell Berry, said: "Simple measures, such as a temporary plywood cover, would have eliminated the risks and prevented this incident."

Marquez's broken nose was no an issue in this fight… Pac broke Marquez's nose in the 1st round of the 1st fight… Marquez boxed and counterpunched his way back into the fight.. He's a veteran who's not going to lose effectiveness because he's forced to breath through his mouth.. He makes needed adjustments and keeps looking to win.Posted December 31, 2012 12:40 am

TARK, i experienced the same revelation in almost instantaneous fashion a year ago when i got a close-up look at Marquez at the racetrack a week before III. my initial reaction was "win or 'lose', this vato's gonna Punish Manny*(?!)". it was obvious that Marquez had increased his armament and ultimately without compromising his boxing skills. his shoulders looked especially ominous. it was symbolic of the pressure and burden he willingly assumed to track down and KTFO of the guy who knocked him down three times in a sngle round. Nine (9) F'n Disrespectful Years Later, Marquez accomplished his mission with SEAL-like lethality. i'm not gonna claim i saw That coming (who the f'k did?). it exceeded everyone's imagination or nightmares BUT i did See and sense a convincing Marquez TKO win to even if not end their rivalry. virtually EVERYone else predicted and wanted otherwise. even those who should've known and wanted better. never mind the integrity that Marquez brings to the fight-game. never mind that a Mayweather v. Pacquiao* bout would've and would still be anticlimactic, in favor of Floyd. besides, it's obvious that Team Punkuiao* never liked the matchup anyway. just like they didn't want to ever rematch Marquez. that is, until they began to feel very confident of an overwhelming Pacquiao* KO win over a presumably older, smaller, ringworn, and compromised Marquez. they publicly declared so themselves. every fight-fan should revel in the Boxing justice that Marquez forged for himself and every other Fighter with a lesser Name but superior fighting ability. Viva Marquez!Posted December 29, 2012 2:17 pm
I believe "Gogue" is French for "Douche" and German for "Meaningless".Posted December 29, 2012 6:33 am
Tumbo…. If you followed my posts, because shortly before the fight I went on a 2 week cruise, but leading up to the fight I was leaning harder and harder to Marquez.. Especially on the threads where Marquez's strength training and conditioning programs were discussed and Roach was becoming apoplectic.. I pointed out the many aspects favorable to JMM that I discussed after the fight..Posted December 29, 2012 4:17 am
There were a ton of bad decisions as usual … Take your pick.
That's why JMM was looking for the KO shot from the bell… He was glued in with that right hand and wasn't about to let the opportunity slip. He wasn't thinking about punch stats.. Just don't get nailed with anything too bad and don't go to sleep on the killer opening that is likely to come sometime during the 12 rounds, given how aggressive Pac was being … and the chances MP was taking.. After all Pac did promise a KO.Posted December 29, 2012 4:08 am

TARK, like i said, you are clearly in the now and present today but you were swooning along with the rest of them yesterday but, whatever. you can see clearly now: Marquez Is Greater. Mission Accomplished. the rivalry is OVER . . . Viva Marquez!Posted December 28, 2012 9:14 pm
Tumbo…, I was hoping Pacquiao would win the 4th.. Like everybody else I wanted to see the Mayweather-Pacquiao Super Fight at LONG LONG LOONG LAST.. But I always said I thought Pac lost all 3 previous fights to Marquez.. JMM staged a brilliant comeback after being down 4 points in the first fight.. He closed the show late in the 2nd fight.. He stayed off the canvas and landed the harder, cleaner, and more effective punches in the 3rd fight.. JMM wasn't going for points in the 4th fight. He was out for the kill.. He knew Pac inside, outside, upside, downside, and between the layers.. He had Pac scoped out to the nth degree. He knew Pacquiao was a great fighter who could keep things close on the scorecards—therefore he planned to put Pac OUT.. An all or nothing strategy takes the fight out of the judge's hands–a crafty veteran move. JMM figured he was going to get the short end of the stick again … because May-Pac was closer than ever and he was ITW.Posted December 28, 2012 5:59 pm

bottomline is that this "W" had ZERO to do with what Pacquiao* did or didn't do and 100% with what Marquez had developed, planned, and executed. even now you former Pacquiao* disciples are desperately trying to figure out a way for giving Pacquiao* credit(?) for losing a fight that Marquez won. truly pathetic.Posted December 28, 2012 1:10 pm
te tumbo
oh brother, TARK? talk about a delayed-reaction to the obvious? you were detailing the exact opposite at this time last year and have been one of St. Pacquiao's* most ardent "expert" supporters all-along. besides, what "divided attention" are you talking about? beyond photo-ops and talk-show appearances, Pacquiao* has only been dividing his attention between bible-thumping and Boxing. otherwise, even in his promotional prime, he's always been a lazy, easily-distracted,gambling, womanizing, carousing, and one-dimensional puncher guided by a trainer who has only ever produced one-dimensional (albeit ready-made) punchers NOT versatile or adaptable boxers. of course, i've been trying to explain this to the likes of You for over two years now(?). it's good to see that Marquez's KO of Pacquiao* finally jolted your system back into reality, i.e., St. Pacquiao* is the product of great matchmaking; Roach has NEVER been a particularly bright or versatile trainer; and Marquez Is and has ALways been Greater. Btw, something else you apparently missed in their most recent and legacy-defining bout: Marquez eschewed the platter and instead busted into Pacquiao's* pantry and helped himself to all the P4P prestige and ATG ring-glory he wanted. the rivalry is OVER.Posted December 28, 2012 1:07 pm

Marquez had won 2/3 rounds going into the 6th and if he had only scored a KD in that round the fight would've been dead-even with momentum in Marquez's favor. only a boxing-ignorant Pactard would count Marquez out of 12-round fight, as early as the 6th round, over a bloody nose(?!). fortunately, the entire topic is moot, thanks to Marquez utterly DESTROYING Pacquiao* with the Sock FELT around the world. the rivalry is OVER. Marquez is Greater. Viva Marquez!Posted December 28, 2012 12:44 pm

Arum promotions is the worst promotor the Bradley vs Pacquiao fight booth arums fighters biggest controversial fight the only winner was arum $$$$$ Pacqman should have left him and started his own promotions like the great Delahoya and Mayweather.Posted December 28, 2012 12:28 pm
Ricky Hatton was a a good boxer not great not known for good defense so was a much bigger acommplishment to beat former pound per pound ex champion Pacpuiao.Posted December 28, 2012 12:20 pm
If the criteria to determine promoter of the year is money made, perhaps Golden Boy wins, but if the prize is based on promoting the sport, putting together the most interesting fights ad benefitting athletes and fans, Golden Boy would probably be last in the list. The arrival of Golden Boy to the big time has meant the demise of some of the biggest fights in the sport, an increase in overprotection and overbuilding of their fighters, inflated records and the end of fights between opposing promoters. Thanks to GBoy boxing looks more and more like MMA, where the promoters run the show and create their own "leagues".Posted December 28, 2012 12:15 pm
No…….How about Hatton…….Posted December 28, 2012 11:57 am

Most overrated fighter : Saul Alvarez ? Kid is really special according to Gogue, but his promoter, GBP, is over protecting him and treating us and the opposition like idiots. Promoter of the year ? The very same one, GBP ! Thats pretty funny.Posted December 28, 2012 8:06 am
If he had not knocked out Pacq based on the rest of his years work he would not even be considered..Other fighters have k.od opponents in similar fashion over the years and got nothingPosted December 28, 2012 3:58 am
JMM should not get the fighter of the yr. , he was bloodied with a broken nose and was about to throw the towel if not for that knock out punch in the 6th. Nonito Donaire should have been a better choice. A single punch should not be the main criteria in choosing the fighter of the yr. He would not even come close to 2nd and 3rd.Posted December 28, 2012 3:45 am
Marquez won't make fighter of this decade—he's 39.
His win wasn't surprising—given the fact that he gave Pacquiao increasing problems over their previous 3 fights … given the fact that Pacquiao divides his attention between Boxing, his various businesses, his celebrity appearances, and his duties as a congressman … and given the fact that Roach gives terrible advice in the corner, seems more fuzzy headed than ever, and seems behind on the curve when adjustments in tactics and strategy are needed.. Roach never seemed confident about this fight, even voicing his concerns about it repeatedly, and that never helps your fighter's confidence… Roach and Pacquiao practically handed this fight to Marquez on a platter.Posted December 28, 2012 2:58 am
Marquez is not only Fighter of the year but he's also has an early lead for Fighter of the Decade…Someone is going to have to score a knockout over the #1 P4P Fighter in the World to Top him or defeat a list of Top 10 P4Pers.Posted December 27, 2012 7:46 pm

How to divide 9 nights London & Paris
Hi! We are a family of 4 (kids are 9 & 7) traveling to London and flying home from Paris. We get to London around 7pm on April 17 and fly home from Paris on April 26th. That gives us 9 total nights and 8 full days (one of which is Easter). How would you suggest we break up the time? 4 days in each city? Would you suggest any day trips or overnight trips? We are planning to take the Eurostar from London to Paris. My husband and I have been to both cities, but the kids have not. We are looking for kid friendly ideas, and we won't be able to do too much in the way of museums. We have been to Versaille and Giverny, so are not interested in doing those this time. Thanks so much!

1987 James Bond Movie starring Timothy Dalton
The World Is Not Enough (1999) is the nineteenth spy film in the James Bond series, and the third to star Pierce Brosnan as the fictional MI6 agent James Bond. The film was directed by Michael Apted, with the original story and screenplay written by Neal Purvis, Robert Wade and Bruce Feirstein. It was produced by Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli.
The title The World Is Not Enough traces its origins to the English translation of the Latin phrase Orbis non sufficit, revealed in the novel On Her Majesty's Secret Service and its film adaptation to be the Bond family motto. The film's plot revolves around the assassination of Sir Robert King by Renard and Bond's subsequent assignment to protect King's daughter, Elektra, who had previously been held captive by Renard. During his assignment, Bond unravels a scheme to increase petroleum prices by triggering a nuclear meltdown in the waters of Istanbul.
Despite the film's mixed critical reception, it earned over $361 million worldwide.

First-year UT Law student is the first student named to the UT System Board of Regents
AUSTIN, Texas―Steven Goode, interim dean of The University of Texas at Austin School of Law, issued the following statement Friday regarding the appointment of Brian J. Haley, a first-year UT law student, to the UT System Board of Regents. On Friday, Texas Gov. Rick Perry appointed Haley and nine other students to the higher education governing boards across the state.
"We think that the governor chose very wisely when he appointed Brian to the Board of Regents. Brian will be a great addition to the Board," Goode said.
Haley, 24, becomes the first student regent in the more than 100-year history of the UT System Board of Regents. All the new regents' terms will expire Feb. 1, 2007.
Haley of Corinth, Texas, received a bachelor's degree in government from UT-Austin and served as its student government president during 2003 and 2004. He is former vice chair of the UT Student Union board of directors and a former member of the Tuition Policy Advisory Committee.
In a statement released Friday by the UT System Board of Regents, Haley said he was "honored and privileged to serve as the first student" on the Board. "I look forward to working with the Governor, his staff, and the other members of the Board over the coming year to promote and enhance higher education in Texas," he said.
Haley, whose new position is non-voting, will attend his first UT System Board of Regents next week in Austin on Feb. 8–9. Before each regents meeting, he will need to review hundreds of pages of reading material that is sent to all regents.
A law passed June 17 by the 79th Legislature created a student regent position for each of the 10 public universities and university systems in Texas. Student regents will have the same powers and duties as the members of the board of regents, with the exception of voting and being counted to determine a quorum, which is the number of members necessary to start a meeting. As student regent, Haley represents more than 184,000 students from the 14 student institutions in the UT System.

Is your external hard drive physically damaged? If so where, possibly a pic.
You havent mentioned if you dropped it or something, or did this start mysteriously?
If you can while in your operating system, run a S.M.A.R.T. check on that drive.
I use the program Defraggler which has a SMART tab which shows nice information.
Posted 22 May 2013 - 13:41
Posted 22 May 2013 - 13:48
The drive fell from 1.5 FT, as already stated this most likely damaged something in the case (circuit board that converts your sata/pata connection to USB) or the drive itself is damaged.
As already suggested - take the drive OUT and directly connect it to your computer via its sata or pata connection. Or use another USB to drive cable.. They are fairly cheap around $20 or so here in the the US, and can be ordered from any online shop if you don't have a place to buy one.
If the drive works when directly connected to your machine or via a usb drive cable..
Then you could just buy a replacement case for it... Or just use it internal, etc. If does not work when directly connected to your computer or via another usb cable like above - then it was most likely damaged in the fall. I doubt warranty covers dropping them.. So you might just be out of luck, you could contact them and ask if warranty covers you dropping it from 1.5 feet. Good luck with that
Did you initialize the drive? Go to Disk settings, see if it is there.

Pseudo-orbit shadowing in the family of tent maps
Abstract | References | Similar Articles | Additional Information
Abstract: We study the family of tent maps--continuous, unimodal, piecewise linear maps of the interval with slopes , . We show that tent maps have the shadowing property (every pseudo-orbit can be approximated by an actual orbit) for almost all parameters , although they fail to have the shadowing property for an uncountable, dense set of parameters. We also show that for any tent map, every pseudo-orbit can be approximated by an actual orbit of a tent map with a perhaps slightly larger slope.

Judges Voice Doubt On Order Last Year To Split Microsoft
Published: February 28, 2001
(Page 2 of 2)
And later in the day, the judges asked for only minor clarifications of the presentation by a second Microsoft lawyer who was complaining about the breakup order. They allowed the lawyer to read virtually uninterrupted for nearly a half-hour from his argument that Judge Jackson had failed to give the company ample opportunity to present its case.
''In an abrupt reversal of position, the district court elected to enter sweeping relief requested by the government without affording Microsoft any process whatsoever,'' said Steven L. Holley, a lawyer representing Microsoft. ''That was a clear abuse of discretion.''
''As a result of the district court's rush to judgment, Microsoft was denied even the opportunity to cross-examine the six government experts whose declarations were offered in support of the decree,'' Mr. Holley said. ''Relying on those hearsay declarations, plus more than 50 new exhibits that were never admitted into evidence, the district court proceeded to enter one of the most complex and comprehensive decrees in the history of the Sherman Act. No account was taken of the grievous harm that this decree would inflict on Microsoft and on a wide range of third parties.''
But to David C. Frederick, a lawyer in the Solicitor General's office who had the task of defending the breakup order, the judges were unrelenting. They suggested to the Justice Department that at the very least, the lower court should have held a hearing to present more evidence before ordering the breakup of Microsoft.
Mr. Frederick told the judges that Microsoft should have been on notice that it faced a possible breakup because of the way the government had framed its complaint, but that argument appeared to have little sway with the judges.
''If a defendant has a right to an evidentiary hearing on a remedy because there are contested issues of fact, what difference does it make if the defendant was aware of the possibility of that form of relief?'' asked Judge David S. Tatel. Moments later, Judge Edwards and Judge A. Raymond Randolph, pressed Mr. Frederick further to show the propriety of Judge Jackson's decision to have issued such a sweeping order without at least giving the company a chance to argue against it.
''The question that's being raised,'' Judge Douglas H. Ginsburg added, ''is whether a company that has not grown through combinations can be perforated along a line proposed by the government without a hearing into the problems that might create.''
Mr. Frederick replied: ''I can cite you no case, Judge Ginsburg, for that proposition. What I would like to say, though, is that I'm not aware of a case in which a company has grown and protected its monopoly through the range of anticompetitive acts that were proved at trial in this case, ranging from contractual and technological bundling, from paying bounties so that competitors' products would not be permitted in the marketplace, from threatening companies with the nonlicensure of products if they did not stop competing with the monopolist's other products.''
''And so, yes, it's true, Judge Ginsburg, I cannot cite you a case in which a monopolist has been broken up by the government,'' Mr. Frederick continued. ''Nor can I cite you a case in the history of the Sherman Act in which a company has engaged in the full range of anticompetitive conduct proved at trial.''
But Judge Ginsburg, a former head of the Justice Department's antitrust division, appeared unsatisified with the response, noting that even the remedy that Judge Jackson approved did not seem to resolve the problems that the government and the judge had identified in the first place.
''Stranger, still, even after the remedy, Microsoft retains the monopoly,'' the judge observed.
As Microsoft concluded two days of oral arguments today it had reason for significant hope that it would be able to turn the case around. Even a partial victory may be enough to prompt the Justice Department under a new administration to seek a quick resolution of the case.
But less certain is how the 19 states that also brought suit against the company will proceed.
The states have shown their willingness to pursue the case independently of the Justice Department, and in fact, were the primary force refusing to agree to the proposed settlement being hammered out last year, before the judge's order. Those talks, between the Justice Department and Microsoft, were mediated by Chief Judge Richard A. Posner of the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit in Chicago. The proposed settlement was short of a breakup, but it did place restrictions on Microsoft.

"We were so fortunate to have so many pictures to chose from as well as a wide arrangement of colors within our photos that this ended up being a perfect fit for us! The quality of the magnet is wonderful and our pictures turned out crisp. Couldn't ask for better! From the moment of purchasing to the delivery everything was super easy and fast! Will be purchasing in the future, I am very happy with them!"
"This was exactly what I wanted out of a save the date. The online team helped me a lot. I had originally submitted a photo from facebook that was not of good quality and may have turned out grainy. The design reviewer pointed that out and I was able to resubmit a high quality photo that looked much better. The whole process was so easy because it was done online. Thank you weddingpaperdivas! I plan to order my wedding invitations from weddingpaperdivas when the time comes."
"These magnets were fantastic. I accidentally ordered 1 per guest rather than one per household, but they are so beautiful I hardly mind! Our designer was excellent and also let us add our wedding website to the bottom underneath the location, which was great!"
"The quality of the magnet was excellent along with the wonderful photo reproduction. The product was shipped within a few days of the order. We received many compliments from family and friends who received this Save the Date magnet. I would highly recommend this product and will order from Wedding Divas again."
"My save the dates turned out PERFECT, and I received so so many compliments on people who loved them. I think the magnet is such a good idea for a save the date and I could not be more pleased."

Ok. Had a long break there. I've just been laying low in Puerto Escondido, enjoying having a place of my own. After almost a three weeks of living in motels and eating out, it becomes a real pleasure to have a place to sleep, cook, and eat. And I've been doing just that. Oh... and drinking lots of beer as well. There are a couple of cats that seem to live here. They've moved in with me anyway. I've also got a number of geckos who live here, occasionally popping their heads out from behind the sofa to see what I'm up to.
I'm in a quiet little corner of town called Rinconada, which is right beside Playa Carazillo, a beautiful little horseshoe bay without the big waves common across town at Playa Zicatela. It's much more pleasant to swim here than in the big surf, IMO.
Carizalillo Beach
I can walk from here to downtown and taxis to Zicatela cost about $2.50
View from the taqueria I eat at often in downtown P.E.
The Puerto en Puerto Escondido
I took a little ride north of town toward Oaxaca, on a road that would be an awesome moto road, if the pavement were in better shape. Endless twists and turns, but due to roughness, you couldn't really push it much.
Then I took an excursion on a dirt road to the hamlet of Reforma. I didn't take any pics there. It's just a little mountain town. People seemed friendly enough.
It was a long dusty climb, on a road that looked like it got washed out regularly.
On the way back to town I stoppped at a horticultural exhibit operated by a local University. They had these unusual trees called "cabeza del toro" or Bulls head trees, so named for obvious reasons.
A few days later I rode south of town and went for a swim on one of the miles of empty beaches here in Oaxaca.
It's friggin hot here now.
Once you go out in the sun, your T-shirt is soaked in sweat within 10 minutes and you're ready for a shower or a swim. I can't imagine what it would be like in the summertime. I'm starting to look forward to getting a little higher in elevation just to cool things off a bit. When my month's lease is up, I'll probably head south along the coast for another day or so, and then head up toward Ciudad Oaxaca. That's about it for now. Cheers!

Farmers Insurance OpenRead MoreThe Farmers Insurance Open is held at the Torrey Pines Golf Course each year in February. The tournament allows ordinary players to team up with PGA pros to play golf at Torrey Pines, which has been called a highly challenging course. The golf tournament supports numerous charities with the money earned from ticket sales and proceeds from players. They were able to generate almost $3 million dollars in 2014, which was given to charitable organizations. Volunteers are welcome to apply and the Farmers Insurance Open utilizes the time and skills of hundreds of volunteers each year to make the tournament a huge success. Ticket prices are listed on the website but do go up the closer it gets to the time of the tournament. The Farmers Open is grateful for all the partner businesses who donate their goods and services to make the event successful. These include area restaurants and other businesses. Companies are encouraged to utilize the Open for advertising and branding opportunities.11480 North Torrey Pines RoadSan Diego, CA US
The Brickyard CagesRead MoreWith 8,800 square feet of dedicated baseball- and softball-practice space, Brickyard Cages gives ballplayers room to improve bat speed and train their eyes. Sluggers choose from six batting cage tunnels outfitted with Iron Mike pitching machines, which can be adjusted by speed and any pitch type that doesn't require human saliva. A staff of experienced players and instructors presides over every crack of the bat and slap of the catcher's mitt, offering year-round lessons to groups and individuals.5355 Grant St.San Diego, CA US
San Diego Boca Soccer/Boca Soccer StoreRead MoreNamed after the legendary team from Argentina where soccer star Diego Maradona got his start, the San Diego Boca Futbol Club follows in the fleet footsteps of its titular inspiration by promoting professional and youth soccer through its involvement in the National Premier Soccer League. Herds of brightly bedecked athletes rampage across an enormous plain to earn the confidence of a whirling, chiaroscuro globe by wooing it with feats of balance and head butting. Intersperse zigs, zags, and zips with soda sips, hot-dog bites, and vuvuzela renditions of Gary Glitter B-sides. This year?s team of cleated kickers booted their way to a fourth-place ranking in the league?s western division, leaving trembling blades of glass in their wake. With recently acquired Brazilian midfielder Z? Roberto and goal-scoring leader Justin Picou leading the charge toward postseason play, fans may redeem today's Groupon for home playoff games.3250 Palm AvenueSan Diego, California US
San Diego FlashRead MoreThe leaders of the National Premier Soccer League's Flight Southwest division, the San Diego Flash wield fleet feet to kick, tackle, and slide their way to soccer supremacy. Comanaged by World Cup veteran Eric Wynalda and coached by former England national team member Warren Barton, the team receives world-class instruction in the art of bending free kicks and scrapbooking red and yellow cards. Carrying 24 points, the club will rely on their talent and waves of encouragement from the crowd to defend its home turf and take out fellow NPSL powerhouse Hollywood United on July 3. As the final match of the regular season, the game promises a hotly contested showdown, with final standings, playoff seeding, and a year's supply of orange slices on the line.13500 Camino Del SurSan Diego, CA US
Victory Gymnastics AcademyRead MoreAt Victory Gymnastics Academy, the gymnastics instructors don't just train kids to do the splits and flip effortlessly into handstands. In boys' freestyle gymnastics classes, they also train kids to overcome any physical obstacle—including a solid wall—through a mix of jumping, crawling, and climbing. A direct descendant of parkour, the sport only differs in one major way: it takes place inside, and the practice obstacles are padded, a setup that puts safety first. The instructor's emphasize safety in their other courses, too. Sessions for preschoolers, for instance, unfold on scaled-down, age-appropriate equipment. During tumbling classes, kids try out handsprings and backtucks, finishing their new moves in an in-ground foam pit that minimizes the risk of injuries. Regardless of whether they're leading a recreation class or a competitive team practice, coaches supervise and correct kids' form, too, as when beginning gymnasts perform handstands by just standing upright and gazing at their hands.4863 Shawline St.San Diego, CA US
