22 ALUMINUM I? I10 P-TYPE SILICON SOLDERABLE MULTILAYER CONTACT FOR SILICON SEMICONDUCTOR RELATED PATENT APPLICATION This application is a division of US patent application Ser. No. 375,688, now abandoned, entitled Solderable Multilayer contact for'Silicon Semiconductor, filed July 2, 1973, in the names of Mark L. Konantz and Ronald K. Leisure, and assigned to the assignee of this application.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to ohmic contacts on semi-conductive bodies, and more particularly to an improved multilayer low resistance solderable contact that can be used on both N-type silicon and P-type silicon.
In the past, nickel layers have been used as single layer solderable ohmic contacts directly on N'type silicon. In such contacts, the nickel layer is applied by electroless deposition from an aqueous solution containing nickel sulfate and sodium hypophosphite. The plated silicon body is heated after the nickel is deposited. After heating at a moderate temperature, the nickel layer has a low contact resistance on N-type silicon. This is due to a significant phosphorus concentration in the nickel layer. However, the phosphorus concentration that reduces contact resistance on N-type silicon, increases it on P-type silicon. Hence, for lowest resistance solderable ohmic contacts on P-type silicon, other approaches have been used.
Excellent low resistance contacts are regularly made to P -type and N-type silicon with a specially microalloyed aluminum layer. However, aluminum is not readily solderable. It is generally known to coat aluminum with one or more layers of another metal, to provide an outer layer that is solderable. Various metals and deposition techniques carrbe used. In making semiconductor devices vacuum deposition is frequently used. Coatings of pure nickel can be conveniently applied to aluminumby vacuum deposition. Pure nickel provides a highly solderable surface, and does not introduce undesirable impurities to the semiconductor surface. However, the adhesion of pure nickel to aluminum is unsatisfactory. It is not as strong as either the aluminum-silicon bond, or the nickel-solder bond.
We have found that it is as difficult to'get pure nickel to adhere to aluminum as it is to get solder to do so. For example,- when a silicon element having an aluminumpure nickel multilayer contact is soldered to a supporting substrate and subjected to bending stresses, the nickel separates from the aluminum to produce electrode failure.
We have found that by using a manganese-nickel alloy instead of pure nickel we can obtain better adhesion to aluminum, without introducing undesirable impurities to the semiconductor surface, increasing the number of processing steps, or reducing solderability.
OBJECTS AND SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is, therefore, an object of this invention to provide an improved multilayer solderable contact on silicon. This and other objects of the invention are obtained with an aluminum layer on silicon, and a layer on the aluminum of nickel containing about 1% 20% by weight manganese.
. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING The FIGURE in the drawing diagrammatically shows a terminal lead soldered to a multilayered electrode made in accordance with the invention.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The contact of this invention can be used to ohmically attach a semiconductor die to a supporting substrate, or to ohmically attach a terminal lead to the die. The drawing illustrates the latter, and serves as one specific example of the invention. The layers shown are not drawn to scale, to better illustrate the novel multilayer contact involved. The multilayer contact is formed on a P-type portion 10 of a silicon semiconductor device. This portion, for example, can be the collector region of a PNP transistor or the base region of an NPN transistor. A film 12 of aluminum is on the surface 14 and microalloyed thereto. A film 16 of nickel containing 5% manganese is on the aluminum film 12. A Kovar terminal lead 18 is attached to the nickel film 16 by means of a solder layer 20. Solder layer 20 can be of any suitable solder, such as by weight lead and 10% by weight tin. Fundamentally our nickel alloy film 16 serves two purposes. It provides an adherent layer on an aluminum film, and also provides a layer that has a solderable surface. However, other layers readily adhere to our nickel alloy layer. It need not be the last or outer layer of a solderable electrode. One or more additional vacuum deposited layers of metal could be used over our nickel alloy layer 16, so long as the last layer applied provides a solderable surface. Additional layers of pure nickel, silver or gold might be used. On the other hand, since our special layer is itself quite solderable, we prefer to use only the two layers 12 and 16.
Our electrode is of special interest in providing a low resistance solderable contact for P-type silicon because no such contact is available for P-type silicon. On the other hand, it works equally well on N-type silicon. Silicon semiconductor devices usually have both N-type and P-type regions. Now, the same metallization system can be used for good solderable contacts on both conductivity type regions. Our multilayer electrode can be used on both conductivity type regions because the initial layer of our contact is microalloyed aluminum film. It is solderable because the outer layer is of a solderable metal. The difficulty with such a contact is in getting adequate adhesion between the aluminum and the subsequently applied metal layers. It is the weakest link in this electrode metallization system.
We have found that satisfactory adhesion to the aluminum layer can be obtained with a nickel alloy containing 1% 20% by weight manganese. By nickel alloy we mean a compound intimate mixture or other like nickel composition containing manganese. The nickel composition should contain more than 1% by weight manganese to consistently obtain good adhesion under all conditions. On the other hand more than about 10% by weight manganese in the composition does not apparently increase adhesion, and over 20% by weight manganese adversely affects solderability.
The thickness of the aluminum coating is no more critical to the electrode of this invention than it is in the usual single layer aluminum ohmic contacts on N-type and P-type silicon. As a general rule the aluminum layer can be about 5,000 to 15,000 angstroms thick. The nickel alloy layer need only be thick enough to cover the aluminum layer with a continuous coating. An average thickness of about 3,000 angstroms is generally necessary to consistently obtain a continuous coating. Thicknesses in excess of about 5,000 angstroms do not appear to provide any increased benefits. Accordingly, we generally prefer our special nickel layer to have a thickness of about 3,000 to 5,000 angstroms.
Both the aluminum layer 12 and our nickel alloy layer 16 are preferably applied by vacuum deposition onto a preheated substrate for best results. The aluminum layer should be shallowly alloyed and quenched in the normal and accepted manner, to produce a low contact resistance on the semiconductor body. One technique by which a low resistance aluminum layer can be made on both N-type and P-type silicon is disclosed in US. Pat. No. 3,108,359 Moore et al.
Our nickel alloy layer 16 can be vacuum deposited directly onto the aluminum using an appropriate nickel alloy source. The vacuum deposition can be by resistance heated or electron beam heated evaporation, or by sputtering. For vacuum evaporation the source can be an alloy of nickel and manganese, or a mixture of powdered nickel and powdered manganese. An alloy is preferred for the target if deposition is by sputtering. No unusual or critical deposition steps are required. On the other hand, the type of deposition and the substrate temperature used during deposition can affect the proportion of manganese preferred in the nickel alloy film produced. For example, when the film is produced by sputtering, even onto an unpreheated substrate, as little as about 1% by weight manganese can provide adequate adhesion. However, when the film is produced by vacuum evaporation from a resistance heated source onto a cold substrate, we prefer that the film contain 5% to by weight manganese.
To make a solderable multilayer electrode in accordance with this invention, a clean silicon substrate is placed in a vacuum evaporation chamber, and the chamber pumped down to a pressure of about l X 10 Torr. The silicon substrate is preferably moderately heated to enhance adhesion of the aluminum to the silicon. While any substrate temperature up to 300 C. can be used, temperatures in excess of 150 C. provide best results, and we prefer 200 C. Aluminum is then evaporated from a tungsten heater onto the silicon substrate until a 10,000 angstrom layer of aluminum is deposited on the substrate. The substrate is then removed from the chamber, and the aluminum layer microalloyed. For microalloying, the aluminum coated substrate is placed in a furnace tube at 560 C. to 575 C. under an argon atmosphere for three to five minutes. The substrate is then immediately removed from the furnace tube, whereupon it quenches in air. After cooling to room temperature, it is placed back in the vacuum deposition chamber. The chamber is evacuated again to a pressure of l X 10 Torr. As with the aluminum layer, it is desired to moderately heat the silicon substrate during the nickel alloy deposition. A substrate temperature of 200 C. 260 C. is preferred. A 4,000 angstrom layer of nickel containing 5% manganese is then evaporated onto the microalloyed aluminum layer of the heated substrate. The substrate is then cooled to 5 less than 100 C., the chamber brought up to atmospheric pressure, and the substrate removed from the vacuum chamber. A contact can then be soldered to the nickel in the usual manner.
The multilayer contact can be produced by sputtering, and need not be removed from the vacuum chamber for microalloying. In such event, the substrate is placed in a sputtering chamber and the system pumped down to a pressure of l X 10 Torr. Concurrently, the substrate is moderately heated. A 4,000 angstrom layer of aluminum is sputtered from an aluminum target onto the substrate. Then, without removing the substrate from the sputtering chamber or changing the pressure, the substrate is heated to a temperature of 560 C. 575 C. for approximately three to five minutes. The substrate is then quickly cooled to about 200 C. to 260 C. If quick cooling is not provided, the contact will still be of low resistance on P-type silicon but not on N-type silicon. A target of nickel containing 5% manganese is then charged, and a manganese-nickel layer about 4,000 angstroms thick deposited onto the microalloyed aluminum. After the manganese-nickel layer has been deposited, the substrate is cooled to 100 C. or less, and then removed from the sputtering chamber.
We claim:
1. A method of forming an improved solderable multilayer electrode on a silicon body comprising the steps of:
vacuum depositing an aluminum layer at least about 3,000 angstroms thick onto a surface of a silicon body, heating said silicon body and said aluminum layer to shallowly alloy said aluminum layer with said silicon surface at their interface and reduce electrical resistance between said layer and said surface, and
thereafter vacuum depositing onto said aluminum layer a layer at least about 3,000 angstroms thick of an alloy consisting essentially of nickel and about 1% by weight manganese. i
2. A method of forming a more adherent low resistance solderable multilayer electrode on a silicon surface comprising the steps of:
vacuum depositing an aluminum layer about 5,000 50 15,000 angstroms thick onto a silicon surface,
microalloying said aluminum layer to said silicon surface, wherein the electrical resistance therebetween is reduced and the aluminum layer is more intimately bonded to said silicon surface, and thereafter vacuum depositing an adherent solderable layer consisting essentially of nickel and about 1% 10% by weight manganese onto said microalloyed aluminum layer to a thickness of about 3,000
5,000 angstroms.

Sexual Assault/Violence refers to physical sexual acts perpetrated against a person's will or where a person is incapable of giving consent due to an intellectual or other disability.
In order for individuals to engage in sexual activity of any type with each other, there must be clear, knowing and voluntary consent prior to and during sexual activity. Consent can be given by word or action, but non-verbal consent is not as clear. Consent to some form of sexual activity cannot be automatically taken as consent to any other form of sexual activity.
In order to give effective consent one must be of legal age and capable of making such decision. Incapacity (or being incapable of giving consent) is a state where someone cannot make rational, reasonable decisions because they lack the capacity to give knowing consent (e.g., to understand the "who, what, when, where, why, or how" of their sexual interaction. Incapacity can result from mental disability, sleep deprivation, involuntary physical restraint, alcohol or drug use, or from the taking of rape drugs.
Myth: Most rapes are crimes of passion/sexual gratification.
Fact: Most rapes are planned, often for as little as a few minutes. Rape is an act of entitlement which is less about sexual desire and more about power, control, dominance and anger. Sex is used as a weapon to inflict violence and humiliation on a victim.
Myth: Women who don't fight back haven't been raped or nobody can be raped against their will.
Fact: Rape occurs when you are forced to have sex against your will – whether you fight back or not. A victim should not be criticized for doing what they must to save their life or avoid serious injury.
Myth: Women often make up stories about being raped.
Fact: Very few people make up stories about rape. Rape happens to people you know, is perpetrated by people you know.
Myth: Rape is usually committed by a stranger.
Fact: Most rapes are committed by someone the victim knows (a date, friend, partner, spouse, neighbor, relative, boss or someone the victim met at a bar or party).
Myth: Women provoke sexual assault by the way they dress/appear.
Fact: Thinking that women provoke attacks transfers the blame on the victim instead of the assailant. Rapists look for vulnerable targets. Women and girls of all ages, ability, culture, sexuality, race and faith are raped. No one asks to be abused or injured.
Myth: If a person doesn't "fight back," she/he wasn't really raped.
Fact: Rape is potentially life-threatening. Whatever a person does to survive the assault is the appropriate action.
Myth: Women who are drunk are willing to engage in any kind of sexual activity.
Fact: The fact that a woman has been drinking does not imply consent. Alcohol and drugs can render a woman incapable of consent. Alcohol is a weapon that some assailants use to control the victim. Sexual assault also occurs in the absence of alcohol.
Myth: Only attractive women are raped.
Fact: Anyone (including men) can be raped. Assailants often choose victims who seem most vulnerable to attack: elderly, children, physically or emotionally disabled persons.

Recently, my attention was brought to a 'legal memorial' published by wardheerNews.com, which was purportedly written by unnamed 'expert' representing People's Republic of China and submitted to the International Court of Justice(ICJ), requesting/ demanding from the Court to declare Somaliland as being an integral part of the Somali republic. However, a cursory look at the 'memorial' by a trained eye would reveal it as faked document by NSPU.
Ab initio, there is no record of the case in the International Court of Justice (ICJ) archives. Second, the legal mistakes and errors in the purported memorial are too numerous for a trained legal expert to draft it. Third, the person who wrote the fake document can only, perhaps, imagine what in the world would be at stake for the Chinese state to go to a world Court for an internal issue in a failed state such as that of Somalia. With these points in mind, let us look at two other major deficiencies in the memorial, which will show the fake nature of the memorial.
a ) The address in the left hand corner of the 'memorial' and the reference to article 65 of the Statute of ICJ in part I indicate, one can assume, that the memorial was submitted by the Chinese state seeking an Advisory Opinion from ICJ on the legal status of Somaliland.
However, the author of the document should have known, alas, that Advisory Opinions can only be requested by the General Assembly, the Security Council and other organs and specialized agencies approved by the General Assembly (Article 96 , Chapter XIV, UN Charter), and not individual states per se. In light of this, the Chinese state lacks the legal standing to request an advisory opinion from ICJ, making the submission for an advisory opinion inadmissible ratione materiae under article 96 of the UN Charter.
b) In part IV, the last part, the memorial asks the Court to declare Somaliland as an integral part of the state Somali Republic [sic].
Even if we imagine in an unlikely situation where a state would be allowed to request an Advisory Opinion from the Court, it would not have requested the Court to declare/ determine a case in an Advisory Opinion. Advisory Opinions are intended to offer legal advice on a given issue to the requesting institution, and not to determine cases. Only in contentious cases, where two or more state agree to submit a given dispute between/among them to the Court, do states normally ask the Court to declare/determine in support of one legal position or another espoused by the parties to the dispute. Thus, no lawyer in his right mind would have asked the court to determine a case in an Advisory Opinion, let alone a legal expert representing such a big power as China.
Part II of the document, the so called facts of the case, is simply full of historical misrepresentations and half truths which I do not need to engage them in here. The same is true about part II, the legal facts of the case, which marshals serious of unconnected jumble of legal arguments which would not simply stand in a court of law, let alone the ICJ.
Finally, the 'Research Unit' of the NSPU, if there is one, should have known better, and not tried
to fake a legal document. Legal documents are no high school essays, nor can they be a figment
of the imagination of someone with a laptop and internet access.

Those are about the only sports that might be able to generate enough $$$ to stick around. A Football DP would be more than damaging the football program, it would cripple just about all the other sports. I'd say only Mens Basketball, Wrestling, & Womens Volleyball would be able to survive. Everyone else would be very lucky to still exist.
I doubt O'Brien, Chambers, Sanderson, etc will make any comment besides the generic ones. This is a sensitive topic and they do not want any more hoopla. Sometimes, its better to just shut up.
BOT needs to cut off Spanier, Curley, & Schultz immediately. Not this fired but still get paid BS. I mean fired and thrown to the curb. Also, I hear reports that Dottie Sandusky still gets Jerry's pension. If that is true, stop that BS right now. Go to court if they must to do it.
I do not want one single cent of my tuition money spent on defending and or paying these morons. If it turns out PSU is paying for their defense it would almost be a whole new scandal in itself.
O'Brien may have the toughest gig in college sports right now. I wish him luck, this is going to be very tough for his program. Even if all he does is keep the program afloat it would be a major success.
The Freeh Report is progress, but I doubt we will ever find the full truth. This is what really P*SSES me off, all these different administrators (idk about JoePa yet) acted like cowards and if they didn't commit a crime they sure as heck did not go out of their way to reveal the full story. Maybe I am asking a lot, but it sure would be nice if everyone just admitted what happened. Of course, the probability of that happening is probably 0%.
Its really hard now to look at the University higher ups in a good way now. Obviously the players, students, alumni, faculty, etc did not do this, but for probably forever my trust is broken.
I doubt the NCAA will sanction PSU, but it is possible. The NCAA is investigating Penn State right now and it is possible they could deem that there were violations. I think at the end of the day they will decide this is a criminal matter only and there is no good reason to sanction PSU, but it is the NCAA and they do have the power.
Personally, I just want the full truth. Even if its horrible and it could mean the end of PSU Football, I would still like to know the full truth. Maybe some people on here just would rather let everything die down and watch football, but the one thing I would like to see, albeit doubtfully, is for the full truth to be revealed
Danny O'Brien may not be Russell Wilson, but I guarantee you he is better than McGloin or whomever else PSU has at QB, and in reality all that kid has gotta do is hand it to their Heisman Front-runner Montee Ball and stay nice and cozy behind that behemoth O-Line that has 2 preseason All-Americans on it.
Nothing is ever definite, but Wisconsin on paper should kick the crap out of PSU. They have a better Offense by far and their D is not bad either. (it was actually ranked stat wise above PSU last year).
My picks for the Leaders:
1. Wisconsin
2. OSU (ineligible)
3. Purdue
3. Illinois
6. Indiana,
I was kinda counting on Paul Jones to seize the job. Clearly the fact he hasn't made much progress because its pretty surprising O'Brien has named a starter before summer has even started. Apparently like Bolden Jones has not lived up to his potential.
The reason I wanted Jones is simple, we know what we get with McGloin. The guy is 5-5 as a starter. Maybe he improves, but at best I could see him taking us to 8-4. Bad QB + O-Line = trouble
Not that is means or matters much, but I know several kids that have met or know Matt McGloin and they all say he is a cocky douchebag, prick, etc. I have yet to hear anything nice about the guy. Not saying the guy has gotta be a saint, but as the QB its your job to be a leader and the calm & cool guy.
The fact a teammate knocked him out, a fight which McGloin apparently instigated, says a lot.
Being cocky is ok if you are the best. QBs like Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees, etc have the green light to be a bit cocky. McGloin on the other hand is statistically the worst QB in the Big 10 and probably arguably the worst starting QB in the nation. He being cocky only aggravates his teammates and it causes him to be a laughingstock amongst Big 10 Defenses.
Here is how high I think of McGloin: I would not care if PSU threw out the waterboy to pay QB instead.
Sorry, but the rest of the Big 10 is laughing at PSU QBs and Matt McGloin. If I was a defense I would LOVE to play Matt McGloin. Once Bama players & coaches last year said when asked which QB they thought gave them more problems and the answer was Bolden, that is all I need to know. I'd say Saban knows what is talking about, and if he says Bolden is better than McGloin, then that should rest the case.
I'm sorry I'm being so negative, but even my Mom who hardly watches football laughs at McGloin and knows he is awful. I really hope Paul Jones can make some serious strides soon, or this season will quickly become an absolute joke.
It will be a 7-5 season, and the reason is simple:
1. McGloin stinks and I'm sorry you are a fool if you try to argue this.
2. Lost 4 of 5 starting O-Linemen, they may improve, but they are far from a top tier unit.
3. No Devin Still
Overall, I just don't think PSU is very good. In the future with a different QB once O'brien gets his recruits acclimated maybe things will change, but as far as I can tell there is little reason to think this team will beat the likes of Wisconsin, Nebraska, & Ohio State this year, and teams like Purdue, Iowa, & Illinois are not too bad this year either.
McGloin sucks, there is no other way around it. Its possible he improves a little, but the bottom line is he does not have much talent. There is a reason he was a walk-on, the guy has below average arm strength, hardly any athleticism, and barely any accuracy if at all.
I'll give O'Brien the benefit of the doubt and say by making this decision in June, Paul Jones must not be making the progress we all hoped he would. As bad as he is, McGloin is definitely far better than Bolden.
Overall, the answer is clear, McGloin is the lesser of the 3 evils, or I guess you could say he is the least sucky of the QBs. On a good day McGloin will manage the game and not screw it up, but against any good team with a D & a pulse, Penn State is screwed. Penn State is in a tough spot, they really have no QB to turn to until Hackenberg shows up. Personally I would go with Jones cuz we already know what McGloin brings to the table, whereas Jones actually has some talent and possibly could learn and develop by starting.
Don't overlook the Bobcats. They return a lot from an 11 win team, and with PSU's issues at QB, this game could get interesting. Put it this way, Ohio will be the best MAC team PSU has played in several years, PSU does need to bring their A game or they could fall flat on their face.
If PSU truly wanted to make a difference they would donate all excess $$$$$ generated from football this year (keep enough to pay for the other sports and workers' salaries obviously), but every penny & dime more than than that could make a difference and would shed good light on the Univ. And don't tell me they need the extra $$$, that is BS. If they say that as far as I'm concerned the PSU Athletic Dept are money hoarding pigs who do not care about anything other than the final profit.
Do the right thing, donate all excess profits this year.
Here are the facts, Penn State Football has the highest ticket prices in the country, for both general admission and student tickets. The sad thing is I can just go on the street before kickoff and probably buy a descent seat for 20 bucks or so.
PS: Those of you who say STEP has no effect are just ignorant. Look around, there were whole blocks of sections that were practically deserted because some sections were just too expensive for anyone to buy. PSU will scrape by for now, but if the prices remain the same and the product sucks, eventually profits will suffer.
Personally, I think its ridiculous. I am a student so I can't complain a ton about the season ticket student package ($218/about $30 per game). However, when I graduate I will be a scalper. I see no point in paying a ton of money for 5 or 6 games vs the Temples and Indianas of the world just to watch one big time game. You might as well not go or pay $10 to a scalper for the crappy games and then just pay for the prime time game on stub hub. Basically, other than the convenience of guaranteed tickets and not needing tohe hassle of a scalper, season tickets are a sham and highway robbery.
Um, how bout the fact there is no QB and there will not be until Hackenberg comes. O'Brien may be a great coach but the QB talent he has frankly sucks, period. Then there is the fact PSU lost 4 of 5 starters on the O-Line. Plus, Devin Still & Derek Moye are gone. Sorry, not saying a 9 win season is impossible, but personally I don't see it happening. A bad or average at best O-Line plus a bad QB will often equal disaster.
The other issue I see is lets be honest, PSU got kinda lucky in several games this year. Last year PSU could have easily lost to Temple, Purdue, & Illinois. Often things average out and the breaks you got last time don't happen this time. I suppose its possible McGloin or Jones become competent QBs (Bolden should just quit football), but until I see it I would never bet $ on it. Also don't underestimate the opponents. I think our schedule is a lot tougher than many fans think. There are very few push overs.
So, I say 7-5. Its not far off your 8 win prediction, don't act like I said PSU will go 3-9 or something.
He usually picks some scrub like Illinois last year to win the division. My bet is he picks Purdue. In reality Wisconsin ill probably win it easily (OSU is ineligible).
Every team plays cupcakes. It is reality. There is no pointing arguing or b*tching about it cuz unless fans stop filling the stands for home games, it will never stop. This is not a "teams want it easy" argument, it is a financial argument, and financially it is not smart to give up any home game to play on the road vs a good team.
This is a 7-5 team. From what I saw from the QBs and our schedule, no game will be a gimme. Even the opener vs Ohio could be a major challenge (They return 19 or 20 starters from an 11 win team that was one play away from being MAC champs). More importantly, Ohio returns their QB who is good, I have seen him play. Plus PSU has road dates with UVA, Iowa, and Nebraska. Of course the two big dogs in Wisconsin & Ohio STate. Heck, even teams like Temple and Purdue will not be push overs. The only automatic wins I see are Navy, Indiana, & Northwestern (lost Persa).
I'd say best case scenario would be 8-4. Worst case 5-7. I'll take the middle and say 7-5.
In Wisky's defense, the 3 guys they thought would be the main competitors are all hurt. They had just signed a highly rated 4 star QB from Cali, then a month later its announced he is having a minor surgery, but it would keep him limited in fall camp.
Last year, I think it was just a matter of getting a fantastic QB. Tebow led the Broncos to a playoff win, it doesn't mean going after Peyton Manning is a bad idea.
I doubt even the State College High School QB is scared of PSU's QBs. If one of them were that good Coach O'Brien would have never even pursued Danny. Oh well, you win some, you lose some. Coming off a Big 10 title you kinda had to figure Wisconsin would be the favorite for his services anyway.

Location, location, location! Yes, the sites are small(ish), yes there is not a lot of shade, but there are shady sites when the trees are in leaf! Yes, there is a LOT of sand - BUT - you are within feet of a gorgeous beach that has its own concession stand. You can walk to the beautiful village of Pentwater and enjoy bars, restaurants, shopping and art galleries! Tell me one other campground that has all this going for it at $24/night! It would be great if they had water and sewer hookups, but most Michigan State Parks do not, so it is not unusual. However, the location, the friendly folk, and the fun you can have there more than make up for ANY shortcomings. I am also not sure how you can rate a campground when you haven't stayed there! - Limey51

We didn't camp here but drove through the park to check it out while in the area. When we first entered, I thought it was a parking lot, as all I saw was asphalt with patches of sand in between and the odd tree. Couldn't believe my eyes when I saw that this was actually the campground (the electrical posts gave it away!) If you like zero privacy and like to eat sand, then this is the place for you. Only benefit is the scenic location right beside the lake and sand dunes. - naturelover

We like the beach so this campground was a great spot for us to camp. It is very tight quarters and most sites are not shaded, but all of them had paved pads for parking your RV. Lots of sand so be sure to have a broom to keep it out of the camper. The restroom/shower facility is very new. Our campsite (#139) was excellent. The lake was just over a dune from our site and we had a nice maple tree to help shade our site, although we kept the awning out because of the warm weather. The beach was great and the lake water was clear and sandy. Lots of lake shore activity with boats, jet skis, and swimming. The Pentwater River empties into Lake Michigan here and there is a nice walkway along the river where you can also fish from if you're so inclined. Downtown Pentwater is very close (about 3 blocks). Nice little shops and eateries in town, but there is not much in the way of grocery stores in Pentwater. Ludington isn't far away if you need supplies of any kind. - Parrothead Mike

We just stayed at this campground and were happy with it. Close to town which is a plus for us because have friends who live there. We stayed on the west side campground which had plenty of shade. The campsite was a little on the small side but we squeezed in there. I would have gave a better rating but the water has tremendous amount of iron in it which they told us it was safe. Bring a lot of bottled water with you if you stay here. - trails2hike

We drove up here from TN. We went from 98 degrees to 62 and we live it! The campground's heated pool was nice and warm for the 4 kids to swim in. All of the roads were safe and biker friendly. The kids loved the free games like horse shoes, and tether ball. While this does not have paved roads and cable TV, it has actual mature trees & woods. We love it here! - 4under4camperdad
May 2014 - $25.00
The campground is divided into 2 sections, 1 on each side of Highway 31. You could hear & see traffic on the sites bordering the highway. All sites were spacious, well-kept, and offered privacy with the mature trees and hills in between. We stayed prior to the Memorial Day weekend and no reservations were needed as barely any campers present. No extras at this time either (pools, restaurant, activities were closed) but price reflected this. Saw several deer in the campground. Would definitely return if in the area again. - naturelover

Wonderfully located and very quiet, River Farm is an ideal location for relaxing, fishing, boating or just strolling through the nearby towns of Pentwater, Hart, Silver Lake and state parks. It is near I-31 but far enough away to not be bothered by traffic noise or trains. Roads and sites are gravel and ample for big rigs with slideouts and awnings. Electric and water are excellent. Only a few sites are good for satellite TV reception but local TV has only 2 stations which breakup frequently. Owner lives on premises and is very friendly and helpful. We would stay here again. - loneranger

I was looking for a place where I could enjoy a quiet weekend near some water with my wife and dog which their website bragged about. Unfortunately this couldn't be further from the truth. The place is nasty dirty and full of dripping pines. There was no room on the lots. A lot of dilapidated seasonals every where. The campground was noisy and no one had control of their animal's barking. If you're looking for a place to relax, this is not it. I never left my RV except to walk the dog so I can't say whether the facilities were clean. - SmokeyDog

Old park with dirty, run down seasonal trailers. We had a reservation made months in advance and were given a site that we could not even extend our awning at. The bathrooms were a mess and the seasonal unit next door had trash and old food containers laying around every where! - Zdog

Small friendly old fashion semi-rustic campground. Half seasonal, wonderful small Bass Lake private beach with dock,paddle boat and canoe rentals. Short walk to small public access on Lake Michigan. Wonderful sand dunes, friendly helpful staff. Short drive to shopping, harbors, activities. Great place to spend time while exploring North West Michigan - Carl&Barb

With embattled Solyndra executives refusing to answer questions at a congressional hearing on Friday, House Republicans are turning their investigation back to the Obama administration.
In a letter to Energy Secretary Steven Chu on Thursday, Republicans on the House Energy and Commerce Committee asked for all e-mails between Chu's department and three other executive branches that had a hand in approving the $535 million federal loan guarantee for Solyndra, the bankrupt solar manufacturer facing a FBI investigation.
The lawmakers want by next Wednesday all relevant e-mails between the Energy Department and the White House, Office of Management and Budget, and the Treasury Department. Committee Republicans have already received thousands of pages of documents from the White House and OMB related to the loan guarantee.
The request came ahead of what had been a highly anticipated Friday hearing, where Solyndra's top executives--CEO Brian Harrison and chief financial officer W.G. Stover--were scheduled to testify. But on Tuesday, attorneys for Harrison and Stover told the committee that both would invoke their Fifth Amendment rights against self-incrimination. Harrison and Stover are still scheduled to appear before the panel at 9 a.m.
The House Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee hearing--"From DOE Loan Guarantee to Bankruptcy to FBI Raid: What Solyndra's Executives Knew"--is now expected to serve largely as a way for members of both parties to discuss aspects of the congressional investigation. Solyndra executives had assured Congress as recently as July that the Freemont, Calif.-based maker of solar photovoltaic systems was in good financial standing.
On Aug. 11, Solyndra filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, laying off 1,100 workers. It was the third U.S. solar company in a matter of weeks to declare bankruptcy, but it had been a poster child for the nascent solar industry. In May 2009 the Energy Department awarded the $535 million loan guarantee, and President Obama, Vice President Joe Biden, and Chu all visited the company to tout renewable energy's potential—and its potential to generate jobs. Some Republicans have questioned whether Solyndra got special treatment because an Obama fundraiser was a private investor in the start-up.
Democratic staff on the committee circulated a memo to the panel's Democrats on Thursday seeking to debunk several Republican claims, including that the George W. Bush administration rejected the Solyndra loan guarantee and that the Obama administration rushed the approval process.

I ordered the oxtails, peas & rice and cabbage. The oxtails were tiny but good flavored and juicy (maybe I got the bottom of the pot). The peas & rice were DRY as all hell. The cabbage or whatever they gave me was freeze dried and stringy.. I know this didn't come from an actual vegetable. I've had better cabbage working as a counsel for a summer camp program. I grew up with West Indians and authentic Jamaican/Trinidadian food and this was a nice imitation but not the real deal. Just order the meats, no veggies unfortunately.

Okay, so I never even bother to write a review whether it's bad or good. I came to this place on father's day, and thought I would treat him to a place that has a menu he would enjoy. When we walked in the hostess was no where to be found, she was by the bar chatting away. The seating there was really cramped and theres barely space in the place. The food here was disappointing and is not the definition of jamaican food at all I'm from jamaica born and raised and I came here with high expectations but instead left very disappointed. This place is also overpriced like other people said. I ordered salmon that came too burnt and when i asked for a new one they almost gave it to me raw! My father did not order an entree, my sister ordered the buss shrimp for $21 a few apetizers and 4 non alcholic drinks. The bill came up to $135 I won't ever return to this place.
Posted by charles on 06/10/2014
I'm Jamaican, and the dishes we were served are easily made in a frying pan in five minutes, and they should be cheap, which defines Jamaican food. This restaurant charges $12 for fifty cents worth of plantains. Folks, all you do is slice up a ripe black plantain and fry it in oil for a short while. Portions are tiny although they shake every last cent from your pocket. We felt the restaurant was cheaply decorated, and we would not come back.

This authentic Jamaican restaurant is putting a modern spin on some of the classics of the Caribbean right in SoHo. Jazzed up with multicolored twinkle lights, diner-esc order boards and seating, this place not only serves up tasty food, but provides an environment that just makes you happy. Not to mention, your ears will enjoy the amazing reggae tunes playing on Radio Lily.
Posted by JAinBK on 12/27/2013
I had heard about this restaurant for a while before I actually went there. My mom was in town and so I decided to take her there for lunch. The atmosphere was strange...it is definitely not a family restaurant and my mom did not feel entirely comfortable there. We got there a little before lunch had officially started and were told to just sit at a table and a waiter would come to us once the kitchen opened. None did, we had to wave our waiter down to let him know that we were not sitting there simply for our health. After that the service was fine. The place got very crowded. The food was excellent, but the portions were tiny and the prices were ridiculously high. Now as a Jamaican, I know what good Caribbean food should taste like...and this was it, but I barely had enough food to whet my appetite. I paid twice as much as I would at another Jamaican restaurant for half the food. What you expect to find at a Caribbean restaurant is good food, cheap prices, and generous portions. For the price they are charging, I would expect to have enough food for three meals, but instead I left still feeling hungry. I've returned once and ordered from their take-out counter, the service was much better, but I left with the same feeling of being unsatisfied and having paid way too much for the privilege. And on top of it, the rice and peas tasted like the bottom of the pot. Sadly, I won't be returning to Miss Lily's. If I want overpriced Jamaican food, I can go to Negril's, where at least I know I won't go hungry, I'll feel comfortable, and I'll receive good service.

Great atmosphere and good food but the portions were too small for the price. If I'm being really picky the Jerk Chicken could have used a bit more moisture. I'd go back.
Posted by Kerry on 11/19/2012
I visited Ms Lily's for the 2nd time and must say that I hope this will not be my last. Both times I enjoyed the jerk corn and man it was delish both times when you go you must have. My friends loved the pepper shrimp and love the other appetizers that we had. The jerk chicken needed to be more spicey but I get it that not everyone is from the islands so they have to taper down the heat. The only thing this place is lacking is a dancefloor so we could work off the food that we ate. The drinks were on point (a bit pricey but good) and the food was as if my mom had cooked it. Chef was very sweet as well. Had fun will be back.

text: Facebook's stock jumped more than 7 per cent on Wednesday, despite expectations that it would fall because more than 850 million additional shares in the company are being freed up for sale.The Mark Zuckerberg-led company went public in May at $38 in a much-hyped initial public offering (IPO) of stock that turned out to be a letdown for investors. Its stock price hasn't hit $38 since.On Wednesday, shares of Facebook Inc were up $1.48, or 7.5 per cent, at $21.34. The day marked the expiration of Facebook's biggest lock-up period, which is a time following an IPO that prevents insiders from selling stock. In all, 773 million shares became eligible for sale, along with 31 million restricted stock units. About 48 million shares held by former Facebook employees also became eligible for sale, bringing the total to 852 million. These shares would be on top of what's already been available for trading, increasing the supply and potentially lowering the overall price.The previous lock-up expired on October 29, when US stock markets were closed because of Superstorm Sandy. Facebook's stock fell nearly 4 per cent two days later, when the stock market reopened.Lock-ups are common after initial public stock offerings and are designed to prevent a stock from experiencing the kind of volatility that might occur if too many shareholders decide to sell all at once.Facebook's stock saw its biggest one-day gain on October 24, the day after the company reported stronger-than-expected third-quarter results and detailed for the first time how much money it made from mobile ads. The stock, which added 19 per cent that day, closed at $23.23. Even with Wednesday's gain, it is still 8 per cent below that price.with inputs from Associated Press

You guys might have overlooked the note at the top of the story....
Parking is tight and seating limited at BA. But I've heard they're bringing in extra bleachers for the visitor's side.
Sorry about that, folks. Whoever put my story online had a momentary mental lapse. I've made the correction.
Auburn lost in the first round Thursday. Alabama didn't qualify for the tourney.
Best of luck to the Wildcats. Maybe they'll play a team from the coast for the state championship.
Fort Payne is just a tad outside the Mobile metro area.
He did not. But the crowd did express its support for his return.
Fixed............dadgum typo.
Ah, the dreaded typo. Sadly, spell check does not work in the headline box when creating a story. And when you're busy putting four stories online at once, spell check comes in handy.
Unbelievably. I was out doing so much research that the wife left me and the dog didn't even recognize me when I got home.
I didn't see all the teams in attendance. Among those there were McGill, Daphne, Fairhope, BCHS, Gulf Shores, Niceville, Pensacola Catholic, Mandeville (La.) and Bolton (La.). Daphne beat Fairhope in the championship game. Robert Ladnier covered the event and I believe his story will appear tomorrow/Monday in the Baldwin Register and on al.com.
I hope he does great for you guys.
Sorry I couldn't help more with stats. Monroe County is on the fringe of our coverage area, so we don't see them a lot.
Monroe County played in a three-team area. They lost the opening round of the area tournament by eight. The team they lost to went on to win the area and advance to the regionals, where it lost to DeMarcus Cousins' alma mater (LeFlore from Mobile). Monroe also played the 1A state runner-up a few times during the regular season (I think they won twice). I haven't seen any stats for him.
It is odd for someone to be unsigned this late in the process, but I know some kids slip through the cracks. We had a pitcher sign with a four-year school just last week.
I haven't seen him play and I'm not sure about offers.
He was an honorable mention selection on our all-region basketball team following this past season and was selected to play in the state North/South All-Star game after his junior year.

My father and I purchased this coupe when I was approx 13 years old.

Mechanically the car runs great. -The paint could use some touch ups (rock chips, minor surface scratches, swirling). -The headliner needs replaced. -A few body parts do not line up perfectly but only noticeable up close -A mouse for the first time since we've had the car got into it last Winter while it was stored and chewed up a small portion of the carpeting. (Not really noticeable but you can see it when pointed out) I'll try to get more pictures but right now these are the best I've got as the car is in storage for the winter and has always been stored in the winter. Contact me by pb-bright (at) wiu.edu or call at 217-254-8238 Feel free to ask questions and like I said I will try to get better pictures if needed. Asking $12,500 OBO. May consider partial trade on a nice Yamaha R6 bike or GSXR600 or CBR600RR plus cash. Titled/licensed/insured in Illinois. 2007/2008 pic. Car hasn't been driven much since the pictures above dated 2005. As school/job/and my other car have tied me down. Plus not having a place to store inside I kept her at my parents house in a heated garage through the bad seasons.

Marantz NR1403
The Marantz NR1403 is a slim, handsome AV receiver with excellent sound and plenty of HDMI connectivity, although it lacks built-in networking.
Onkyo TX-NR616
The Onkyo TX-NR616 is a tremendous AV receiver value, with eight HDMI inputs and a very low street price, although Onkyo's step-down models may be an even better buy.
Onkyo HTX-22HDX ( black)
The Onkyo HTX-22HDX is a slick-looking 2.1 home theater system with good features, but its sound quality leaves a lot to be desired.
The LG LHB535 offers an outstanding feature set for its price, but its sound quality is only passable.
Pricing not available
Onkyo HT-S7200
While its bulky design isn't for everyone, you'd be hard-pressed to find a more full-featured and better sounding all-in-one 7.1 home theater system for the price than the Onkyo HT-S7200.
The LG LHB953 combines Blu-ray, tons of streaming media content, and solid AV quality into an all-in-one home theater system that scores high on the value quotient.
Pricing not available
Samsung HT-BD1250
Samsung's HT-BD1250 home theater system has built-in Blu-ray, streaming media from Netflix and Pandora, and excellent audio and video quality, making it our top budget Blu-ray all-in-one system.
Panasonic SC-BT300
Panasonic's SC-BT300 is a 7.1 home theater system with built-in Blu-ray and its tall-boy speakers help deliver very good sound quality, but it doesn't have the Netflix streaming found on some of its similarly priced competitors.
Samsung HT-AS730ST
The Samsung HT-AS730's unimpressive sound quality, finicky HDMI ports, unreadable display, and tedious input system will have you looking elsewhere for a Blu-ray-ready home theater package.
Onkyo HT-S9100THX
The Onkyo HT-S91000THX breaks the HTIB mold, offering four HDMI inputs, full-size speakers, and the best sound we've heard to date from an all-in-one system.
Pricing not available

The Star Wars action figures and Dominoes are the newest toys to be inducted into the National Toy Hall of Fame.
The two toys were inducted into the Rochester hall from among 12 nominees.
"Star Wars" action figures went on the market in 1978, following the 1977 release of the 20th Century Fox movie. The 3 3/4-inch figures of Han Solo, Chewbacca, R2-D2 and company were sold until 1985 and again from the mid-1990's to today.
Dominoes originated in China in the 1300s.
Star Wars and Dominoes joined the 49 toys already in the hall of fame. They range from classics, like Play-Doh and Slinky, to the less obvious, like the stick and cardboard box.
The toys beat out Clue, the Fisher-Price Corn Popper, Lite-Brite, the pogo stick, sidewalk chalk, the Magie 8 ball, Simon, the tea set and Twister.
Officials at the Toy Hall of Fame say a national selection committee chooses the winners.

Below is the poem entitled More which was written by poet
Keough. Please feel free to comment on this poem. However, please remember, PoetrySoup is a place of encouragement and growth.
Read Poems by
Xavier Keough
Am I nothing more
Than an ominous date
A wisp of genetic wonder
A curse of conscious fate
Behold the burden
Nestled in newborn hair
Innocent eyes etched
Into life's coarse lair
Is there nothing more
Than this tactile plight
Torn tears of birth's bliss
My fingers weep sight
Is she nothing more
Than death's deciduous seed
Baptized by superstition
Comfort's posthumous need
Who will hold her
When my embers grow cold
The walls of winter creep closer
And the silence grows bold
What have I done
This curse that I share
Too buried to breathe
Too naked to bare
How can I tell her
Forever stalks our door
That there is no tomorrow
For life is nothing more

As a DUI Attorney Orange County, we know that almost all the cases go to court, but most cases plead out especially for first time offenders because the prosecutors would offer a goo deal, before the case officially goes to trial. Although trials can be fun for lawyers, it's often a risky proposition and in most cases it's better to negotiate a favourable DUI. In most DUI cases less than 5% would go to jail and less than 1% end up being acquittals. Other criminal cases are easier to win; because it's usually he said she said, while DUI cases are many times black and white with breathalysers evidence, field sobriety testing and even blood testing in some cases.
A server is someone who is allowed to serve drinks in any kind of establishment. No, not everyone can serve drinks, not even a manager or the owner, if they do not have the appropriate permits for it. There are two kinds of permits that a server needs to secure before he is allowed to serve: 1. The Mixologist's Permit. This permit is needed to work behind the bar and mix drinks, or pour tap beer or wine, or else, manage an establishment that serves alcoholic beverages within its premises for consumption. One has to be at least 21 years old to get this permit; 2. The Server's Permit. This permit allows one to take orders for alcoholic beverages, and then deliver them on the site for consumption. However, a server cannot mix or pour beer or wine from a tap or manage an establishment that serves alcoholic beverages. They are, however, allowed to pour wine or beer into a customer's glass at the customer's table. Now, as to the question of how many alcoholic beverages is a server allowed to serve, it depends. To a minor, they are NEVER under any circumstances, allowed to serve alcoholic drinks. If the bar or restaurant they are working in have an age restriction rule that limits minors to enter into the premises, then this is easier; but if not, then they need to be extra vigilant. Servers are also never allowed to serve alcohol to a Visible Intoxicated Person (VIP) under any circumstances, or face the risk of legal punishments or sanctions. The server may face fines of up to $500 and the cancellation of their permit if they continue to serve drinking alcohol to a VIP. The business establishment faces fines of up to $4950, and the possibility of losing their liquor license. It is also note-worthy to note that all estalishments must serve food the entire time that they serve alcoholic drinks.
