What is described is an electrical module with a microphone integrated therein.
A microphone module with an encapsulated MEMS microphone (MEMS=Micro Electromechanical System) is known from the publication J. J. Neumann, Jr., and K. J. Gabriel, "A fully-integrated CMOS-MEMS audio microphone," 12th International Conference on Solid State Sensors, Actuators and Microsystems, 2003 IEEE, pp. 230-233. Described therein is a module having a volume for pressure equalization (back volume).
An electrical module with a built-in MEMS piezoresistive microphone is known from the publication D. P. Arnold et al., "A directional acoustic array using silicon micromachined piezoresisitive microphones," J. Acoust. Soc. Am., vol. 113(1), 2003, pp. 289-298.
In the publication Mang-Nian Niu and Eun Sok Kim, "Piezoelectric Bimorph Microphone Built on Micromachined Parylene Diaphragm," Journal of Microelectromechanical Systems, vol. 12, 2003 IEEE, pp. 892-898, a piezoelectric microphone having two piezoelectric layers of ZnO and a floating electrode arranged therebetween is described.
Described herein is an electrical module with a built-in MEMS microphone that has a high signal-to-noise ratio.
An electrical module with a built-in microphone is described. The module comprises a base plate with an acoustic channel formed therein. One embodiment includes a first cavity connected via a sound inlet opening to the exterior, with a MEMS microphone chip arranged therein, and a second cavity, suitable as an acoustic back volume and connected to the acoustic channel. The microphone chip may be connected to the base plate, arranged above an opening formed in the base plate, and connected via this opening to the acoustic channel buried in the base plate.
The first cavity can coincide with the exterior. The diaphragm of the microphone chip separates the first cavity from the acoustic channel, which opens into a second cavity. The second cavity may be alongside the first cavity. The acoustic channel may run at least in part beneath the two cavities.
A pressure balance between the second cavity and the acoustic channel is possible by air interchange. A fast air interchange between the first and the second cavity—i.e., an air interchange in a period on the order of the oscillation period of the microphone diaphragm in the operating frequency range—may be prevented by the diaphragm of the microphone chip. A slow air interchange (in a period that is longer than the largest oscillation period of the microphone diaphragm in the operating frequency range) between the two cavities is nevertheless possible via a ventilation opening whose cross-sectional size is clearly smaller than the cross-sectional size of the diaphragm.
The acoustic channel may be at least sufficiently large in cross section that the pressure change in the proximity of the diaphragm of the microphone chip can be rapidly compensated. The cross-sectional size of the acoustic channel or the channel openings may be at least 5% of the diaphragm surface area.
Microphones that detect sound pressure via diaphragms are dependent on a large diaphragm excursion in reaction to the sound intensity in order to obtain the desired characteristics regarding sensitivity and noise behavior. For small components with built-in microphones, the attainable excursion is limited by the small diaphragm surface area. For this reason, only weak electrical signals can be obtained when the diaphragm excursion is transformed into an electrical variable. The compliance of a diaphragm manufactured in a separate procedure can be worsened by a high internal mechanical stress caused by a biasing of the diaphragm.
MEMS microphones described here have an air chamber (first cavity) connected to a sound input opening as well as a back volume formed by the acoustic channel and the second area. Back volume refers to enclosed air volumes, with which an acoustic short-circuit—an undesired pressure balance between front and back of the vibrating diaphragm—is prevented. For each diaphragm deflection, this air volume produces a restoring force in addition to the restoring force caused by the flexible diaphragm characteristics.
In the microphone specified here, the back volume may be formed by a horizontal acoustic channel formed in the carrier substrate below the two side-by-side cavities, and by the volume of the other cavity. With this particularly large back volume, the relative pressure changes in the back volume, caused by the diaphragm vibrations, and the associated restoring force affecting the diaphragm can be kept small.
In an embodiment, the module comprises a cover that has a separation ridge connecting two opposite side faces of the cover and sealing to the base plate. Between the base plate and the cover, for instance, the first cavity connected via a sound inlet opening to the exterior and the second cavity isolated from it by the separation ridge of the cover are formed. The sound inlet opening may be arranged in the cover.
The acoustic channel and the second cavity together form a back volume. An advantage of this embodiment is that the back volume is arranged partly in the base plate and partly thereabove. Thus a large portion of the module volume is used as the acoustic back volume.
A microphone chip comprises a carrier substrate, with a diaphragm capable of vibrating. The microphone chip may have a piezoelectric layer as well metal layers and/or electrode structures connected thereto, clamped therein above a recess or an opening.
There may be an adhesion-promoting and/or sealing mechanism, e.g., a glue layer or an epoxy resin layer, between the cover and the plate.
The microphone chip is arranged above a first opening provided in the base plate, which opens into the acoustic channel and the first cavity. The base plate has a second opening, through which the acoustic channel is connected to the second cavity. The cross-sectional size of the first opening may correspond to roughly the cross-sectional size of the microphone chip's diaphragm. The cross-sectional size of the second opening may be selected in such a way that a fast air interchange between the acoustic channel and the second cavity is possible.
With the microphone, the restoring force acting on the diaphragm can be reduced and the diaphragm excursion increased.
In an embodiment, the base plate comprises a first layer with a recess associated with the acoustic channel formed in it, and a second layer arranged above the first layer, which partly covers the recess for forming an acoustic channel up to the above-mentioned openings. The separation ridge of the cover may seal to the second layer.
The first layer of the base plate can optionally be a glass-fiber reinforced organic laminate, or contain ceramics. The first layer of the base plate can comprise several homogeneous or different dielectric sublayers arranged one above another, between which structured metal layers are arranged. The sublayers can be formed from a glass-fiber reinforced organic laminate or ceramics. The second layer of the base plate is formed with a first layer, which may include another material such as ceramic, formed like a solder stop mask (of acrylate or epoxy resin in one embodiment).
The second cavity can house at least one chip element, e.g., a resistor, a capacitor, an inductor, a filter, an impedance transformer and an amplifier. The chip element may be suitable for surface mounting.
The microphone chip can also be mounted with a flip-chip construction method and electrically connected by bumps to electrical contacts arranged on the upper side of the base plate. In another embodiment, the microphone chip can be electrically connected by bonding wires to electrical contacts arranged on the upper side of the base plate. The interfaces formed by the opposing mounting surfaces of the chip and the base plate may be sealed by adhesion, underfilling or soldering, for example. A solder frame or a frame made of potting compound may be arranged between the chip and base plate. In the case of a solder frame, it is expedient to form a solderable metallization, whose outline corresponds to the form of the frame in the lateral plane, on the upper side of the base plate and the lower surface of the microphone chip.
In one embodiment, the cover comprises a cap of plastic or ceramic coated with a conductive layer. The cover can also be formed from metal.
In case of a large acoustic pressure, such large peak-to-peak oscillation amplitudes of the diaphragm can occur that a nonlinearity in the electroacoustic transformation of the diaphragm oscillation into an electrical signal, and therefore signal distortion, results. This problem is remedied in one embodiment, in which a negative-feedback compensation circuit is connected to a diaphragm. Deflection of the diaphragm provoked by the compensation circuit opposes the deflection of the diaphragm caused by the acoustic pressure, and compensates it to a large extent, so that the diaphragm oscillates with a reduced amplitude or does not oscillate at all. The electrical parameter produced by the compensation circuit, for example, a potential, is proportional to the acoustic pressure or the signal to be detected. Any desired electrical circuit suitable for negative feedback is applicable as the compensation circuit.
According to another embodiment of the microphone, the diaphragm is clamped to the carrier substrate only at one side, while its end opposite the clamped end can oscillate freely above an opening formed in the carrier substrate when an acoustic signal is applied. Clamping on both sides is also possible, in which case only two opposite diaphragm ends are arranged above the carrier substrate. A diaphragm carrier capable of oscillation that is sealed to the carrier substrate on all sides, e.g., a flexible film, may be stretched over the opening in the carrier substrate. The diaphragm is located on the diaphragm carrier.
The following materials are suitable as a piezoelectric layer in all embodiments: ZnO, lead zirconate titanate (PZT) and aluminum nitride.
It is proposed that a diaphragm with at least one piezoelectric layer be to a large extent symmetrical regarding its layer succession and layer thickness. In particular, bending moments that develop due to different coefficients of expansion of sequential layers are compensated even for substantial temperature discontinuities. Warping of the diaphragm can therefore be avoided over a broad temperature range. This measure is particularly applicable to a bimorph diaphragm structure.
A microphone will be described in detail below on the basis of embodiments and the related figures. The figures show embodiments of different versions of the microphone on the basis of schematic representations, not drawn to scale. Identical or identically functioning parts are labeled with the same reference symbols.
Microphone chip MCH is arranged on a base plate BP above an opening formed therein—sound opening IN in
A closed cavity, which is used as an acoustic back volume, is formed between microphone chip MCH, the upper side of the base plate and cover CAP. In addition, a chip component BE1 electrically connected to microphone chip MCH is arranged in this cavity. Additional chip components BE2 are located on the base plate BP outside of the closed cavity. The electrical connections between the module components just mentioned are buried in part in multilayered base plate BP.
Base plate BP comprises a lower layer S2 and an upper layer S1 arranged thereon. In layer S2, an acoustic channel AK is provided in the form of a blind hole or a trench extending in a longitudinal direction. As viewed from above, layer S1 may cover this blind hole completely, up to a first opening W1 and a second opening W2. Layer S1 can be formed, for instance, as a solder stop mask.
A cover CAP, which has a separation ridge TS that interconnects two opposing sides of the cover, is arranged on layer S1. Cover CAP may be sealed tightly on all sides to the upper side of base plate BP or to its upper layer S1. A glue layer KS can be arranged between them for adhesion promotion or sealing.
A microphone chip MCH, which is sealed tightly on all sides to layer S1, is arranged above first opening W1 of layer S1. A sealing frame KS1 is arranged between microphone chip MCH and layer S1. Sealing frame KS1 can be formed from potting compound in one embodiment. In another embodiment, sealing frame KS1 can be formed as a solder frame.
Two cavities HR1, HR2, which are connected by acoustic channel AK and isolated from one another by microphone chip MCH arranged in first cavity HR1, are formed between the S1 and cover CAP by separation ridge TS of the cover. First cavity HR1 is connected via sound inlet opening IN to the outside.
Chip components BE1, BE2, which are electrically connected via contacts K1-K3 arranged on the base plate to one another and to microphone chip MCH, are arranged in second cavity HR2.
On the upper side of microphone chip MCH, a contact surface AF is arranged, which is electrically connected, e.g., to the first electrode of the microphone, and to an electrical contact K1 located on layer S1 via a bonding wire. The contact K2 shown in
The acoustic back volume is formed by an air volume enclosed in acoustic channel AK and second cavity HR2. The essential point is that acoustic channel AK connects the remote cavity HR2 to the rear side of microphone chip MCH and thus makes available an expanded back volume.
Opening W2 connecting acoustic channel AK to second cavity HR2 is formed in that a part of layer S2, in the area of the recess formed therein, is not covered by layer S1.
In an embodiment, layer S1 is completely covered by the cover CAP, wherein separation ridge TS rests upon on this layer and is fixedly connected thereto by glue layer KS. In this example, the height of separation ridge TS is less than the height of the external walls of the cover.
Microphone chip MCH is fixedly connected to layer S1 by a frame-like glue layer KS1 (or solder layer) arranged in the peripheral area of microphone chip MCH. Thus, opening W1 of the acoustic channel is isolated from first cavity HR1. Layer KS1 serves to seal off the interface between microphone chip MCH and layer S1.
A bimorph diaphragm structure has the advantage over a diaphragm with only one piezoelectric layer in that it is possible to obtain twice as large an electrical signal for the same diaphragm curvature, since the potentials of the two piezoelectric layers are additive.
The layer thicknesses of the layers forming diaphragm M1 may be chosen to be symmetrical relative to metal layer ML2. The piezoelectric layers have the same thickness and the same orientation of their piezoelectric axes. The two outside metal layers ML1, ML3 may be formed with equal thickness.
On the upper side of carrier substrate SU, electrical contacts AE1, AE2 are arranged, which are electrically connected on the one hand via electrical leads to electrodes formed in metal layers ML1 and ML2, and on the other hand, via plated-through holes DK to contact surfaces AF arranged on the lower surface of the carrier substrate SU.
In an embodiment, a ventilation opening, which is small in relation to the cross-sectional size of the diaphragm and serves for a slow pressure equalization in the range of ≧100 ms, can be provided to connect the enclosed air volume (back volume of the microphone) to the outside. The pressure is equalized slowly in relation to the period of an acoustic signal with the largest wavelength in the operating range of the microphone. This opening can be arranged in the diaphragm or in a wall of the container enclosing the acoustic back volume.
The module is not limited to the number or the special form of the elements, microphones and/or microphone chips shown in the figures, or to the audible acoustic range from 20 Hz to 20 kHz. Additional piezoelectric acoustic sensors, such as distance sensors operating with ultrasound, are also possible. A microphone chip can be used in any desired signal processing module. Different embodiments can be combined.
It is possible to form the carrier substrate as a multilayer structure with structured printed conductors integrated therein to realize, for instance, electrical leads, inductors, capacitors and resistors.

IT'S a heavy price to pay for a sweet tooth. Researchers have tricked glucose-eating cancer cells into consuming a sugar that essentially poisons them - it leaves a "suicide" switch within the cells open to attack.
"Most cancer cells rely almost exclusively on glucose to fuel their growth," says Guy Perkins of the University of California at San Diego. With Rudy Yamaguchi of Kyushu University in Fukuoka, Japan, Perkins found the cells would take up a similar sugar called 2-deoxyglucose. But this sugar physically dislodges a protein within the cell that guards a suicide switch. Once exposed, the switch can be activated by a drug called ABT-263. This kills the cell by liberating proteins that order it to commit suicide (Cancer Research, DOI: 10.1158/0008-5472.can-11-3091).
The approach could ultimately spell doom for several types of cancer, including liver, lung, breast and blood. In mice, the treatment made aggressive human prostate cancer tumours virtually disappear within days.
Yamaguchi and Perkins are now hoping to mount a clinical trial at UC San Diego.

Around the Grapefruit League
Houston Astros: The moment Roy Oswalt walked into the Houston Astros clubhouse at spring training, things seemed different.
The past three seasons, Oswalt shared the "ace" label with Andy Pettitte and Roger Clemens. But with Pettitte back with the New York Yankees and Clemens still mulling his future, Oswalt is alone in the spotlight and missing two influential mentors.
Now, he's the guy younger pitchers are emulating and turning to for guidance and leadership.

This Elegiac Trio is conceived in only one movement, in contrast to most piano trios, which have three or four. This movement is in the classical form of a sonata, but the exposition is built on twelve episodes that are symmetrically represented in the recapitulation. The elegiac theme is presented in the first part Lento lugubre by the piano. In the following parts, the elegy is presented by the cello and violin, while the spirit is constantly evolving (più vivo - con anima - appassionato - tempo rubato - risoluto). The theme is ultimately recast as a funeral march.
Despite his youth, Rachmaninoff shows in the virtuose piano part his ability to cover a wide spectrum of sound colors.
The two Trios Elegiaques are often named together with the trio of Tchaikovsky. This trio has a distinctive connection to Tchaikovsky's trio, both in the unusual, expanded first movement, and in the funeral march as a conclusion.

Indonesian carrier Sky Aviation has temporarily suspended operations until 31 March as it seeks new investors.
The airline is undergoing an "audit for a new investor", says the country's director for air transport Djoko Muratmodjo. He declined to comment on what action would be taken if the airline does not resume operations after the end of the month.
Calls by Flightglobal to the airline seeking more information on the suspension went unanswered.
Flightglobal data shows that the airline has a fleet of nine aircraft: one Cessna 208B Grand Caravan, five Fokker 50 turboprops, and three Sukhoi Superjet 100 regional jets in its fleet. It also has a Fokker 100 in storage.
Prior to suspending operations, the airline operated a mix of scheduled and charter services across Indonesia.

On December 26, 2004, Kristine Huskey boarded a ten-seat turboprop bound for Guantánamo Bay, Cuba. She was going to meet with her then clients, twelve Kuwaiti citizens who were being held at the United States military base there. It was the first of twelve (thus far) trips she has made to meet with clients—many of whom have been held without charge for years.
The trip to Guantánamo requires a specially chartered flight that departs from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and even though the military base is only 534 miles away, the flight takes three and a half hours because the pilot must navigate around Cuban air space. Once on the ground—Huskey describes the base as hot, dull, and isolated—she is met with obligatory military escorts and searches of her belongings. These searches invariably turn up the pamphlet-size copy of the United States Constitution that's always tucked in her bag.
The schedule on the base is strict and inflexible. Huskey meets with her clients, whose leg chains are connected to a bolt in the floor, for carefully apportioned amounts of time. At night, she stays in a small motel that is a twenty-five minute ferry ride and fifteen minutes by van from where her clients are imprisoned. "As a lawyer who used to work at a big DC firm, and meet with corporate in-house counsel at places like the Four Seasons," Huskey said, "representing Guantanamo detainees is quite a different experience."
In accepting her new position as director of the National Security and Human Rights Clinic at the University of Texas School of Law, Huskey is taking on perhaps the greatest challenge of her career. But her new Law School colleagues don't doubt that she's up to the task.
Derek Jinks, the Marrs McLean Professor in Law, regards Huskey as a force to be reckoned with. If you're in a legal squabble, you want Huskey on your side, Jinks said.
"The thing that struck me about Kristine when I first met her is that there is this toughness, this defiance," Jinks said. "She's the kind of person that if she feels some wrong has been done and there's something she can do about it, she is ready to roll up her sleeves and fight."
Huskey certainly is rolling up her sleeves with the clinic's caseload, an important part of which is representing detainees at Guantánamo. Jinks said Huskey's wealth of experience with detainee cases while she worked in Washington, as well as her overall legal prowess, lay the foundation for the National Security and Human Rights Clinic. "All of the prominent detainee cases that have been handed down by the Supreme Court have her fingerprints all over them," Jinks said.
When she earned her JD from UT Law in 1997, Huskey would never have guessed that in ten years she would be one of the country's top experts on detainee law. But her life is notable for its unexpected turns. She spent most of her childhood in Anchorage, Alaska, before moving with her parents to Saudi Arabia. A few years after that, she enrolled in a performing arts boarding school in Michigan where she studied ballet. Following graduation she moved to New York City in the hope of dancing professionally.
Her life took another global turn when she relocated to Luanda, Angola with her then-boyfriend, a UNICEF diplomat. At the time, civil war was raging in the African nation. Food was in short supply, and few people spoke English. "So I learned how to speak Portuguese," Huskey said. "I learned how to make bread. I learned how to live without a telephone, air conditioning, cable TV, running water, electricity—things most of us take for granted in this country."
Huskey also saw firsthand what areas of armed conflict look like. "It's a lot more varied than you might expect," she said. "All kinds of different people get caught up in it—business people, visiting aid workers, travelers, citizens, civilians—the vast majority of whom are not involved in the conflict at all. That experience really helped me understand that sometimes people are just in the wrong place at the wrong time. One of the great strengths of our legal system is that due process can separate the genuinely bad actors from the merely unlucky."
After two years in Angola, Huskey returned to New York and enrolled at Columbia University. In 1992, she graduated Phi Beta Kappa with a bachelor's degree in Political Science. "I put myself through college, so graduating with honors was pretty intense," Huskey said. "There were times when I had three waitressing jobs or bartending jobs at a time when I was also in school."
Following her studies at Columbia, Huskey returned for a time to professional dance and modeling. Notable gigs included a major role in H-Town's music video for "Knockin' Da Boots"—a big hit on MTV and one of the most popular pop and R&B tunes of 1993—and a lesser role in Buster Poindexter's music video for "Hot Hot Hot." But these youthful diversions could never satisfy a growing desire to work for meaningful change in the world. She decided to go to law school.
Before enrolling, though, she spent a year backpacking through Southeast Asia. Her itinerary included India, Indonesia, Nepal, Sri Lanka, and Thailand. Then she returned to the United States, settling in to her legal study in Austin.
Following her graduation from the Law School in 1997, she clerked for Justice Bea Ann Smith, '75, on the Third Court of Appeals in Austin, then joined Shearman & Sterling LLP in Washington DC, where she represented international entities including OPEC and the Mexican tomato industry.
In 2002 she began working on detainee cases with Tom Wilner, her mentor at Shearman & Sterling. The longtime DC attorney agreed to represent several families of Kuwaiti detainees at Guantánamo after ten other DC law firms had declined. Rumblings of discontent from inside and outside the firm ensued. "Tom basically threatened to quit if we were not allowed to continue representing these people, because we had made a commitment to them and to standing up for the Rule of Law," Huskey recalled. Wilner remained at the firm and continued working on the detainee cases. By 2004, their case had been heard by the Supreme Court as part of Rasul v. Bush, a decision that helped reestablish habeas corpus for detainees.
Huskey brings this hard-won experience to UT Law. The goals of the National Security and Human Rights Clinic are to teach students how to be principled practitioners and to impart lessons about contributing to the legal community and to society in the very significant debate involving national security.
"Through the Clinic, the Law School and its students will be involved in real-life litigation that is setting precedents in constitutional law, human rights law, and humanitarian law," Huskey said. "These cases are now part of our history and will be discussed for decades to come."

Warning over loom bands after child cuts off blood supply to fingers
Posted: July 09, 2014|
A SOUTH West doctor has issued a warning over loom bands after a child risked serious damage to their fingers playing with the latest craze toy.
The Loom Band fad sees children link together small, colourful rubber bands to create bracelets.You can use a loom or your fingers and a hook to create them - but one child was close to losing his fingers as he fell asleep with one of the bands wrapped around his fingers - thankfully the parent of the child went in to check on him half an hour after lights out.
The doctor - a mother of three herself - posted this photo and a warning to parents about the elastic bands on a mother's group on Facebook: "Please be careful with looms - zoom in on the fingers - the parent of this child thankfully went in to check on him half an hour after lights out."

Celebrities including The Duchess of Cambridge, David Beckham, One Direction's Harry Styles and the Duchess of Cornwall have all been pictured wearing the colourful bracelets.

Soda Can Letter Art
By: Heidi Borchers
We are adding the craft to your Craft Projects.
The project was added to your Craft Projects.
Click here to view your Craft Projects.
If you're interested in making your own crafty wall decor, look no further than your recycle bin. Instead of throwing away an empty aluminum can, create Soda Can Letter Art from Heidi Borchers. You can spell out a word or phrase that motivates and excites you.
- Aleene's 7800 Adhesive
- Drink cans (soda, tea, etc.)
- Wood alphabet letters
- Acrylic paint (to complement soda can colors)
- Paint brush
- Scissors (dollar store scissors are best)
- Craft knife
- Craft foam sheet
- Stylus
- Circle template
- Wax paper
- Brick (1 for each letter)
- Eye pins
- Large jump rings
- Jewelry pliers
- Wet wipe
Paint wood letters. Set aside to dry.
Cut tops and bottoms from cans using craft knife to carefully punch through top and bottom sides and scissors to cut away top and bottom. Cut down side to open can.
Save the tops and bottoms for other projects :)
If needed, use a wet wipe to clean inside of can.
Place can right side up on craft foam sheet. Place alphabet letter on top of can – moving it around until you have it placed over desired design area. Hold letter firmly in place and use stylus to trace outline of letter onto can.
Cut out letter along embossed pattern line. Be sure to cut smooth lines so that no sharp edges remain. It's those little jagged edges that can be sharp so take your time in cutting out the letters very carefully and smoothly and be sure to round all corner edges.
To add texture to your can letter, lay the letter on craft foam and use the stylus to draw light long lines on wrong side. Turn over and repeat on printed side. This will help the letter to lay flat.
To add swirls to your letters, draw round circles onto soda can piece with stylus. Cut out circle with scissors.
To create swirl, you are going to cut a 1/8″ strip from the circle. Do this by gradually cutting into the circle until you reach the 1/8th inch mark. Continue cutting the strip until you reach the center. (My video gives you a great detail on this step!)
Apply glue to front of wood letter. Lay soda can letter into glue. Insert end of swirl between wood letter and soda can letter – add a dab of glue if needed.
Place letter on firm work surface. Place piece of waxed paper over soda can letter and then place brick on top of letter. Keep brick in place until glue dries.
- Screw eye pins in top and bottom of letters (placement will be determined by letters used) and join with jump ring.

carrier Arik Air has signed
a letter of intent covering three Boeing 747-8 Intercontinentals which, if firmed, would make it
only the second commercial airline to order the passenger variant.
Arik's executives are in Seattle,
taking delivery of two additional 737-700s. Last month the Lagos-based carrier
said it was planning to discuss "issues of mutual interest" during the visit.
Boeing spokesman says: "Arik
Air chairman [Sir Joseph Arumemi-Johnson]
and [Boeing Commercial Airplanes CEO] Scott Carson signed a letter of intent
for seven 737s and three 747-8Is today at a luncheon ceremony for the delivery
of two new 737-700s to the airline.
this announcement, Arik Air
has made public its plans to operate 17 [new] 737s, five 777s, seven 787s and
three 747-8Is."
adds that the 737s will be either -800s or -900s, although this is yet to be
passenger version of the 747-8 has to date attracted only one announced
commercial airline order, from Lufthansa which is buying 20 aircraft. Boeing
has also sold seven 747-8s in a VIP layout.
month Boeing partly blamed Airbus A380 production delays for the sluggish sales
performance, claiming they have caused airlines to postpone their 747 fleet
is forecasting around 85 aircraft sales for the 747-8I, 27 of which are already
accounted for in sales to Lufthansa and Boeing Business Jet customers.

Call Rocky up...it depends a bit on materials. If I recall correctly (and I might not), the cover (leather or synthetic) makes about a 100.00 difference. So it ranges from around 260.00 to "as fancy as you want."
I bought the basic version, and it was really the best money I ever spent on my 02 Adventure. (I do a fair amount of street riding with my bike.)
Note that I had tried the 03 Adventure seat upgrade. Save your money and don't bother with it. It's better, but not worth the difference IMHO.
Lots of folks here like the James seat too, but I don't have any personal experience with that one.
I'll email you pics if you wish, just pm me with your address.

Queen Elizabeth
Kate at Christmas: What Should She Wear?
Originally posted 12/19/2013 10:55AM
As well as getting Prince George ready for his first Christmas, the Duchess of Cambridge is planning her festive wardrobe. And what a wardrobe it will be – around a dozen outfit changes over three days.
So, what does one wear when dining with Queen Elizabeth?
The festivities begin on Christmas Eve, when the royals exchange presents and enjoy their traditional turkey lunch. We can imagine Kate in something elegant and refined with a hint of glamour – typical of one of her favorite designers, Emilia Wickstead.
Prince William Comments on Nelson Mandela's Death: He Was 'an Extraordinary and Inspiring Man'
Originally posted 12/05/2013 06:30PM
There was a standing ovation followed by a stunned hush in the London movie theater where Prince William, his wife, Kate, and a roomful of VIPs had just finished watching the film Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom.
The group was shocked when they learned that the subject of the movie, Nelson Mandela, had died.
"We were delivered the news as the credits rolled," Tweeted The Mail on Sunday's royal correspondent Katie Nicholl. "Silence here in the cinema where the royal couple have just watched Mandela. RIP."
Kate Middleton Wears Lotus Flower Tiara After Queen Elizabeth, Princess Margaret
Originally posted 12/04/2013 12:15PM
It turns out the stunning diamond tiara worn by Kate to an event at Buckingham Palace Tuesday night was, literally, fit for a queen.
Known as the Lotus Flower Tiara, the crown jewel that Palace insiders say was loaned to the Duchess of Cambridge by Queen Elizabeth from her collection dates back to the Queen's mother in the 1920s.
"It's a beautiful pearl and diamond piece," expert Leslie Field, author of The Queen's Jewels, says about the Egyptian-style tiara, which was also previously owned and worn by the Queen's late sister, Princess Margaret. "It's very much in the '20s style and probably quite lightweight and comfortable to wear."
Kate Middleton Wears a Tiara on Night Out with Prince William

Now that was an entrance!
Kate Middleton looked every inch a princess when she attended an event at Buckingham Palace with husband Prince William on Tuesday.
Wearing a sparkling diamond tiara for the first time since her 2011 wedding, the new mom paired it with diamond earrings and a white lace dress.
Her husband also looked dashing in a white tie and tails.
Prince William & Kate Observe Remembrance Day

Prince William and Prince Harry helped lead Britain in commemorating the country's war dead on Sunday.
William, 31, who served as a RAF search and rescue helicopter pilot until September, was watched by wife Kate as he laid a wreath of poppies at a memorial in central London. He followed his brother, army captain Harry, 29, who donned his ceremonial Household Cavalry great coat with wide red collar, in paying tribute on behalf of his father, Prince Charles (who is in India with wife Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall).
As in previous years, Kate, 31, watched from a balcony above Whitehall, central London, alongside William's aunt Sophie, Countess of Wessex, and Tim Laurence, the husband of Princess Anne. Kate donned a brooch in the shape of a poppy – the traditional symbol worn to honor those who have perished in wars.
Royal Christening: Prince William, Kate and Prince George Pose for Official Portrait
Originally posted 10/24/2013 05:25PM
The joy of succession.
On Thursday, the Palace released four official portraits showcasing the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and their son, Prince George, taken after the young royal was christened on Wednesday.
In one of the historic photographs taken by celebrity photographer Jason Bell Queen Elizabeth sits with three generations of heirs – the Queen, 87, poses with son Prince Charles, 64, grandson Prince William, 31, and 3-month-old Prince George. The image pays homage to a photograph taken in 1894 of Queen Victoria with her four living immediate heirs at the christening of then Prince Edward Albert of York.
Prince George's Baby Carriage: Sign of the Times at Balmoral
Originally posted 10/24/2013 11:10AM
Prince George may only be 3 months old, but the newly baptized baby is already making his presence felt in his family.
When Time visited Queen Elizabeth's Balmoral estate in preparation for its new cover story on Prince Charles, writer Catherine Mayer spotted a smart Silver Cross pram – what Americans call a baby carriage – with a navy blue canopy and cover, standing in a hallway by the side door.
That was not the only passing of traditions that the magazine reported.
Prince Charles: The Man Who Still Will Be King
Originally posted 10/24/2013 08:25AM
He's ready to serve, he's been wanting to serve, but when will Britain's heir apparent serve?
That is the question that has dogged Prince Charles practically his entire 64 years. But now, with his mother, Queen Elizabeth, slowing down at 87 (yet with no intention of abdicating), and his son Prince William and daughter-in-law, Kate, keeping the spotlight on the monarchy blazing hot, Charles discusses the issue of succession and other personal matters in an exclusive new cover story for Time.
Of his unique role in the world, Charles tells the magazine's Catherine Mayer, "I've had this extraordinary feeling, for years and years, ever since I can remember really, of wanting to heal and make things better. … I feel more than anything else it's my duty to worry about everybody and their lives in this country, to try to find a way of improving things if I possibly can."
Titled "The Forgotten Prince," no doubt in light of William and Prince Harry's celebrity and even 3-month-old grandson Prince George's swiftly rising star, the article presents the royal as unsurprisingly staid, yet thoughtful, proactive and as delightfully proud of his sons and new grandson as any older relative would be.
William, Kate & George at Home: Spoof Royal Photos Look Hilariously Real
Originally posted 10/22/2013 01:20PM
Well, I never.
It seems the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have thrown caution to the wind and invited a photographer to capture their most intimate moments with Prince George – from bath time to nappy changing.
And is that Queen Elizabeth snapping a pic of baby George in a king's crown … with her smartphone?!
If it all seems too good to be true, well, that's because it is. Look closer, and you'll see that the photos are only an elaborate, brilliantly executed spoof.
Prince William and Kate Help the Queen Entertain at Balmoral Castle
Originally posted 09/24/2013 08:20AM
Apart from introducing Prince George to his great-grandfather Prince Philip and discussing the upcoming Christening with the baby's great-grandmother Queen Elizabeth, what have the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge been up to on their vacation at Balmoral Castle?
William took the son of New Zealand Prime Minister John Key with him on a grouse shoot, while Kate chaperoned the politician's daughter on a walk through the woods.
Max Key, 18, didn't shoot anything, because he didn't know how to use the guns stored by the royals at the Scottish retreat. Besides, "They're very hard to shoot, the grouse," his father told the New Zealand Herald.

Daily Health Tips update for July 25:
Mulberry and mulberry leaf extract are natural medicines that have been used for hundreds of years in traditional medicine. Ancient Chinese medicine claims mulberry has a healthy effect on the liver, and new studies show that regular use of mulberry leaf may help prevent or control Type 2 diabetes.
Clinical trials at the University of Minnesota revealed a reduction in the absorption of sugars and complex carbohydrates in humans, which helped stabilize blood sugar levels. Dr. Andrew Weil, an integrative medical practitioner, recommends taking one gram of mulberry before a meal and eating magnesium-rich foods such as leafy green vegetables and omega-3 fatty acids which are found in fish and fish oil supplements.

When I do something like this:
int my_array[5] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};
for (int &x : my_array) {
x *= 2;
C++11 obviously knows that my array only has 5 elements. Is this information stored somewhere in the my_array object?
If so, is there any good reason why it is not made available to me as a developer (or is it?!?!?)? It seems that a lot of the world's problems would be solved if C++ devs always knew the bounds of the arrays they're dealing with.
