Za WARUDO!
It's always humored me how the stance you take on issues affects certain things. I don't lock children away in prisons so my civil rights have hit the world benchmark and my nation would be renown for the progressive civil rights all citizens enjoy...
But tourism took a hit because I suppose I have an extensive mafia comprised entirely of children under the age of 15.
Tylope, Yokiria, and Cormactopia II
Issues are hilariously quirky in their effect. :P
As a general reminder guys, please unendorse me if I'm above 85 endorsements (like I currently am). Thanks!
If a nation named Jenny Tals comes here, do yourselves a favor and banject them immediately. They attempt to spam and troll like "great work guys 200 endorsements soon I'll be leader" when they aren't a WA member and disrespect everybody.
Thanks for the heads up!
Your welcome, you can see the TSP RMB for how they act if you want, but I summed it pretty well. Hope Tsunamy ejects them soon.

I understand the appeal of yearender lists. The High Fidelity fan in me appreciates how ranking culture is like sport for people who hate sport, but writing them is nerve wracking. A year is a long time, and it is super easy to miss something big that happened in early January and feels aeons ago. Ranking a defined number of things is relatively easy for me, (Buffy seasons, from best to worst: 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 4, 1) but when I am picking from the huge swath of "things that happened over the last 8766 hours" I get a little more panicky.
My favourite part about tech writing changes with every blog, but it generally fits into two extremes: praising something excellent or getting angry about companies being asshats to consumers. I went with the latter with this post, the headline was sanitised, but here are the top three dick moves of 2012.
1) Apple Maps. From the rare apology, the departure of one of their rising stars, the parody blog, the endangered Australians, to the applauded return of Google Maps to iOS, this one has been a nightmare for Apple that the most valuable company in the world probably shouldn't be susceptible to. Yes, Google wasn't offering them the full maps package, yes, it is their ecosystem to do with what they will, but they still made a product significantly worse for users, intentionally.
2) Twitter killing it's own ecosystem. I may have been calling out Instagram just the other week, but as API changes go, Twitter's were even worse. Essentially, they crippled third party Twitter clients, especially new ones, seeking to draw users to their official offerings, as well as disabling "friend finder" services that used Twitter in other apps. This makes sense from a 'delivering ads' standpoint, but these clients helped build Twitter into what it is - this was a sucker punch, pure and simple. Not only that, it hurts users in a very obvious way - for example - Twitter haven't gotten around to developing a Windows 8 app. Fair enough, not a huge userbase and they can't invest time everywhere, but someone has made a fairly good one, called Tweetro - only it has reached it's limit of 100k users and now can't add any more. Even without an official alternative, Twitter is actively hurting third party clients.
3) Google screwing with its search results. I've always believed in the sancitity of Google results. Sure, there were ads on the side, but the main results were untampered with, unless you were looking for child porn or something. Google has started forcing Google + results into your search's, while not adding "social" links from any of it's rivals. Integrating social results was in general a good idea, one they had going quite well before Twitter stopped letting them (grr), but only chucking your own network's stuff in there is pretty goddamn cunning.
There are of course, many other dick moves pulled in tech. I haven't even touched the abomination that is modern day DLC in video games, or Facebook's rigged attempt at appearing democratic, Windows Phone 7.8, or the wide variety of flawed internet governance plans that have made headlines over the last little while. What has struck you as particularly mean spirited this year?

Preservation Durham Welcomes New History Hub To Downtown Durham
Posted in the Durham Forum
1 - 1 of 1 Comments Last updated Oct 15, 2013
"Blueplate PR "
Since: Jun 13
#1 Oct 15, 2013
-- Executive Director Wendy Hillis looks forward to a synergetic relationship --
October 15, 2013 (Durham, NC) When the new Museum of Durham History -- a.k.a. the Durham History Hub -- opened to the public today at 500 West Main Street, just a few blocks away Preservation Durhams Executive Director Wendy Hillis could almost hear the coupling between the citys past and future snap into place.
We are so excited to have the History Hub finally join us downtown, providing an accessible public venue within which to explore the unique history of our city, she said from Preservation Durhams office just off Main on Market Street.With the opening of the Hub, we can focus our work on what we do best: leveraging our historic buildings and neighborhoods through continued renovation and reuse, with the ultimate goal of generating a strong real estate engine, with unique assets, for the future of Durham City and County.
Preservation Durham is a non-profit membership organization dedicated to preserving Durhams architectural heritage. According to Hillis, the Hub is a natural outgrowth of the role her organization has played in the community since 1974.
So we can be forward looking, advocating for the importance of our historic places in the future of the city, she said,while the Hub can look back and interpret the history that brought us to this point. The museums opening also allows us to focus more specifically on the future of historic preservation: the revitalization of historic neighborhoods and buildings.
The Hubs Executive Director Katie Spencer and her Board of Directors, three of whom also serve on Preservation Durhams Board, have been great partners over the past few years, Hillis said.We look forward to continuing this synergetic relationship. I hope this realignment of our scope will make us more relevant to a larger sector of the population -- those who are drawn to Durham's unique character-- and help us build a support base outside our traditional demographic.
Wendy Hillis joined Preservation Durham in September of 2012 after serving as Campus Historic Preservation Architect at UNC-Chapel Hill. She received her Master of Architecture degree from the University of Virginia and is a past recipient of the prestigious Richard Morris Hunt Fellowship that allows an American preservation architect to study and work in Paris, France.
Durhams History Hub will be open Tuesday-Saturday, 10 a.m. until 5 p.m., with extended hours on Thursdays and Third Fridays in the spring and summer months. There is no admission fee. For more information on Hub, go to www.museumofdurhamhistory.org/history-hub.htm... .

Here is a great piece of American History. This is a USMC G-1 Leather Flight Jacket with a name tag, 2 Marine Corps Patches, and 1 set of black Jump WIngs. The jacket is named to Gunnery Sergeant D.A. Loosman. On the left shoulder, there is a very soft and supple(I believe a WW2 vintage patch) 1st Marines Patch. On the right shoulder there is another early issue 2nd Marines Patch. Above Gunny Loosman's name tag, there is a set of black Airborne Jump Wings. These wings have a bit of wear to the high points, and i believe you can see brass showing through. These wings are missing one clutch, and the back appears to be marked ILC and TG. The jacket is in excellent condition. The leather is soft, supple, is not faded, is not torn, and only has one tiny cut that is hard to find on the right hand sleeve. The exterior pocket buttons are in place. The interior pocket snap is perfectly functioning. The sleeve cuffs are in perfect condition and are very sturdy. The waist cuff too is in excellent condition with only one bit of wear at the front right at the seam. The zipper moves from top to bottom flawlessly. It appears as if Gunny Loosman once had his aviator wings pinned over top of the ones printed on his name tag, as there are two corresponding holes. There is also a bit of a cut to the name tag as seen in the pictures. The size of the jacket is a 42. The jacket is manufactured by Gregory Sportswear Inc. The full tag is pictured above for your review. It appears as if there was once some insignia applied on the underside of the left and right side of the collar. I have pictured this, but i am unsure of what it would have been. The fur collar is real fur, and is in excellent condition as is the rest of the jacket. This is an original issue USMC Flight jacket with 2 rare patches and a rare set of jump wings. The condition is excellent. This will be extremely hard to upgrade. This is wearable, but in my opinion, will be much better for display. This rare piece will add dramatically to any collection.
On a quick search of the web, i found the following information. D.A. Loosman, or Danny, was born on April 27, 1933 in Syracuse New York. He was raised in Oneida, NY and was active in the Boy Scouts of America attaining theRank of Eagle Scout. Danny served in the USMC, served two tours in Vietnam, and retired in 1974 as a Gunnery Sergeant. And, like us, Danny was a collector. Danny passed away in 2003. We are all thankful for his service to his country.

Effective by penetrating into the raw, porous substrate to inhibit the ignition of the substrate, these water-based, non-durable (will wash out) liquids will dry clear. The products for fabrics will make the fabrics passable for NFPA 701. Keep your original container, and if possible, treat an extra sample piece the same way as your original, for the fire marshal.
NOTE: Longevity of any FR additive depends on the use of the treated fabric (and how much it is handled) and the environment (mostly humidity and environmental changes) in which the treated fabric lives. It also depends on whether the treated fabric is clean or has been accumulating dust (stage dust, shop dust) and/or air-borne oil particles (from a restaurant or cafeteria kitchen).

In case you were hoping for a Christmas miracle...
Less than two weeks after revealing that their hot 'n' sexy marriage wasn't working out, Ryan Reynolds has filed for divorce from Scarlett Johansson, and she filed her response at the same time.
Reynolds cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for their Dec. 14 separation, according to documents filed Thursday in Los Angeles Superior Court.
Already an elusive duo, it's been said that their dueling careers kept them more estranged than anything else (such as comely costars).
Reynolds and Johansson tied the knot in Canada on Sept. 27, 2008.
There's some community property involved, thanks to their churning-along careers, but neither actor is asking for spousal support and they don't have kids. Should be easy to dissolve this one, right?

The present invention relates to semiconductor devices and vacuum devices, and in particular, to devices configured to operate in a vacuum environment and devices manufactured through microelectronic, micro electro-mechanical systems (MEMS), micro system technology (MST), micromachining, and semiconductor manufacturing processes.
Vacuum tubes were developed at or around the turn of the century and immediately became widely used for electrical amplification, rectification, oscillation, modulation, and wave shaping in radio, television, radar, and in all types of electrical circuits. With the advent of the transistor in the 1940s and 1950s and integrated circuit technology in the 1960s, the use of the vacuum tube began to decline, as circuits previously employing vacuum tubes were adapted to utilize solid state transistors. The result is that today more circuits are utilizing solid state semiconductor devices, with vacuum tubes remaining in use only in limited circumstances such as those involving high power, high frequency, or severe environmental applications. In these limited circumstances, solid state semiconductor devices generally cannot accommodate the high power, high frequency or severe environmental conditions.
There have been a number of attempts at fabricating vacuum tube devices using solid state semiconductor device fabrication techniques. One such attempt resulted in a thermionic integrated circuit formed on the top side of a substrate, with cathode elements and corresponding grid elements being formed co-planarly on the substrate. The anodes for the respective cathode/grid pairs were fabricated on a separate substrate, which was aligned with the first-mentioned substrate such that the cathode to anode spacing was on the order of one millimeter. With this structure, all the cathode elements were collectively heated via a filament heater deposited on the backside of the substrate. Accordingly, this structure required a relatively high temperature to operate and required substrate materials with a high electrical resistivity at elevated temperatures. In addition, the structure described above presented other problems, including: inter-electrode electron leakage, electron leakage between adjacent devices, and a limited cathode life.
The present invention provides a solid state vacuum device (SSVD) that operates in a manner similar to that of a traditional vacuum tube amplifier. In one embodiment, the SSVD comprises a cathode, anode, and a grid. In alternative embodiments, the SSVD also comprises a plurality of grid layers, also referred to as a plurality of electrodes. In one embodiment, the cathode is heated by a structure via a circuit that causes the cathode to emit electrons. As described in further detail below, this configuration is referred to as an indirectly heated cathode. In another embodiment, which is referred to as a directly heated cathode, a heater circuit provides energy/power to a structure that is directly part of, and in electrical contact with, the cathode, which emits electrons when heated. The electrons are passed through the grid(s) and are received by the anode. In response to receiving the electrons from the cathode, the anode produces a current that is fed into an external circuit. The magnitude of the flow of electrons through the grid is regulated by a control circuit that supplies a voltage or voltage waveform to the grid. Accordingly, the predetermined voltage applied to the grid controls the electrical current produced at the anode.
In one embodiment, the present invention provides SSVD in a triode configuration. In this embodiment, the SSVD comprises a substrate having a cavity formed in the substrate. The SSVD further comprises an anode positioned in the cavity of the substrate, a cathode suspended over the cavity of the substrate, and a grid positioned between the cathode and anode. The grid comprises at least one aperture for directing the passage of electrons from the cathode to the anode, and the grid is constructed of an electronically-conductive material. In addition, the SSVD comprises an enclosed housing for creating a vacuum environment in an area surrounding the grid, cathode, and anode.
In another embodiment, the present invention provides an SSVD in a diode configuration. In this embodiment, the SSVD comprises a substrate having a cavity formed in the substrate. The SSVD further comprises an anode positioned in the cavity of the substrate and a cathode suspended over the cavity. The SSVD also comprises an enclosed housing for creating a vacuum environment in an area between the cathode and anode.
In other embodiments, the present invention provides solid state vacuum devices in tetrode and pentode configurations. In these embodiments, the SSVD comprises a substrate having a cavity formed in the substrate. The SSVD further comprises an anode positioned in the cavity of the substrate, a cathode suspended over the cavity of the substrate, and a plurality of grid layers positioned between the cathode and anode. More specifically, these embodiments of the SSVD comprise two grid layers in the tetrode configuration and three grid layers in the pentode configuration. In yet another embodiment, the SSVD comprises two aligned grid layers in a tetrode configuration, where the aligned grid layers provide an increased power generation capacity that is characteristic of a pentode. The grid layers comprise at least one aperture for directing the passage of electrons from the cathode to the anode. By the use of the novel fabrication methods of the present invention, other higher order devices may be constructed by providing additional grid layers to the SSVD structures described herein.
The foregoing aspects and many of the attendant advantages of this invention will become more readily appreciated as the same become better understood by reference to the following detailed description, when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein:
The present invention provides a micron-scale, solid state vacuum device that operates in a manner similar to that of a traditional vacuum tube amplifier. As described below, the present invention provides a plurality of embodiments where a solid state vacuum device is configured to form a diode, triode, tetrode, and other higher order devices made from novel semiconductor fabrication techniques. The following sections provide a detailed description of each embodiment and several methods for making the devices disclosed herein. Supplemental information is also provided in a contemporaneously filed patent application entitled "Solid State Vacuum Devices and Method for Making the Same," which is commonly assigned to InnoSys, Inc. of Salt Lake City, Utah, and naming Ruey-Jen Hwu and Larry Sadwick as co-inventors; the subject matter of which is incorporated by reference.

In the operation of the triode 100, the cathode 351, in one embodiment, is heated by a circuit that causes the cathode 351 to emit charged carriers, such as electrons. Other possible electron emission mechanisms include photo-induced emission, electron injection, negative affinity, etc. Such alternate embodiments can be used separately or in conjunction with the thermionic emission. In one set of embodiments, the cathode is heated by a circuit that causes the cathode to emit electrons; this configuration is referred to as an indirectly heated cathode. In another configuration which is referred to as a directly heated cathode, the heater circuit provides energy/power to a structure that is directly part of and in electrical contact with the cathode and it emits electrons when it is heated. The emitted electrons pass through the grid 312 and are received by the anode 305. In response to receiving the electrons from the cathode 351, the anode 305 produces a current. The magnitude of the flow of electrons through the grid 312 is controlled by a circuit that supplies a voltage or voltage waveform to the grid 312. Accordingly, the voltage applied to the grid 312 controls the electrical current produced by the anode 305.
Referring now to
In one embodiment, the triode 100 may be constructed on a substrate 301, which may be made of a single crystal, polycrystalline material, amorphous material, any other semiconductor or any other appropriate substrate depending on application. For instance, the substrate 301 may be made of polycrystalline silicon, amorphous silicon, silicon, gallium arsenide semiconductor substrates, glass, ceramic, metals, metal oxides, etc., or the like.
As shown in
As shown in

The anode 305 may be positioned in any orientation relative to the oxidation layer 303 and the substrate 301. For instance, in one embodiment, the anode 305 may be configured to extend from the bottom surface of the cavity 350 to the bottom surface of the substrate 301. In this embodiment, the substrate 301 may be made from any material, but preferably made from a glass-based material.
Any known fabrication process of disposing a conductive layer may be used to form the anode 305. In one embodiment, the formation of the anode 305 can be achieved by many ways including electroplating evaporation, metal sputtering, etc. In the through-hole embodiment, various bonding techniques are particularly applicable to secure a conductive layer on the bottom surface of the insulting substrate 301. In addition, the anode 305 may be further shaped by a process involving a chemical-mechanical polishing.
After the anode 305 has been formed, a filling 307 is placed in the cavity 350. The filling 307 may be made from any material that sufficiently fills the cavity 350 to support the application of an etched conductive layer on top surface of the filling 307. In one embodiment, the filling 307 is configured to form a substantially flat, uniform surface at the opening of the cavity 350. In alternative embodiments, the top surface of the filling 307 may be configured to any other height relative to the bottom of the cavity 350. As described in more detail below, the height of the top surface of the filling 307 determines the height of the etched conductive layer (the grid) formed on the filling 307.
In one embodiment, the filling 307 may be a thick coat of polyimide disposed in the cavity 350. Although polyimide is used as the filling 307 in this illustrative embodiment, any filling material may be utilized in this step of the fabrication process. However, it is preferred to utilize a material that may be easily removed from the substrate 301 without damaging the oxidation layer 303 and anode 305.

The grid 312 may be formed by the use of any known fabrication process for shaping formed metallic layers. In one embodiment, the grid 312 is formed by the use of a photo-resistive material 310 or other appropriate material that is shaped by a mask. As shown in
Similar to the construction of the anode 305, the grid 312 may be constructed from any conductive material. For instance, in several examples, the grid 312 may be made of tungsten, gold, tantalum, nickel or any other like material. As described in more detail below with reference to

Although the embodiment of

Similar to the fabrication method described above with reference to
Once the cavity 314 is formed in the base substrate 320, a filling material (not shown) is then placed in the cavity 314. Similar to the filling 307 described above, the filling material formed in the cavity 314 provides a raised surface for the formation of the insulating and conductive layers 316 and 315. In a fabrication process similar to the fabrication method described above with reference to
The insulating layer 316 can be made from any material having electrically resistive properties. For example, the insulating layer 316 may be made of ceramic, silicon dioxide or the like. In one embodiment, the insulating layer 316 is disposed on the filling material by the use of any generally known fabrication method such as wet oxidation, sputtering evaporation, or any other like method. The cathode 351 further comprises a conductive layer 315 disposed on the insulating layer 316. In this embodiment, the conductive layer 315 functions as a thermal source to heat the electron-emitting material 313. In one embodiment, the conductive layer 315 may be made of a low resistance metal that rises to high temperatures when a voltage source is applied thereto. Several examples of a conductive metal providing a thermal source include metals such as nickel, tantalum, platinum, tungsten molybdenum, chromium/tungsten, titanium tungsten, other conductive alloys, intermetallics, or the like. Although these metals are used in this illustrative example, any other conductive materials for creating a heat source may be used in the construction of any one of the embodiments disclosed herein. The conductive material 315 may be applied by a number of known fabrication methods, such as sputtering, evaporation, electroplating, CVD, etc. In the case of a through-hole type of cavity in the insulating substrate of ceramics, glasses, etc., various bonding techniques can be used to secure a conductor layer 315 on the surface of the substrate 320. In one embodiment, the insulating and conductive layer 316 and 315, respectively, each has a thickness in the range of less than 1 micron to greater than 1 millimeter. Although this range is used in this illustrative embodiment, the insulating and conductive layers 316 and 315 may be any other thickness greater or less than this range.
In one embodiment, the insulating and conductive layers 316 and 315 that form the cathode 351 are affixed to the substrate 320 at opposite ends of the air bridge. Referring to
Once the conductive layers 316 and 315 are formed, the electron emitting material 313 is disposed on the conductive layer 315. In one embodiment, the electron emitting material 313 may be a monocarbonate to a tricarbonate, or a suitable metal or mix of metals such as an alkaline with metal or mixtures thereof. In one embodiment the tricarbonate is deposited onto the cathode 351 by a conventional procedure, such as electrophoresis. Alternatively, the electron emitting material 313 may be sprayed onto the cathode 351 surface. By these processes, carbonates of several elements such as strontium, calcium and barium can be deposited onto the conductive layer 315. Although these examples are disclosed for illustrating one embodiment, any other low work function material may be used in the application of the electron emitting material 313.
The above-described process is illustrative of one embodiment of a cathode that is directly heated. For indirectly heated cathodes, there are numerous embodiments that can be employed. For example, an additional insulating layer 316 a and an additional conducting layer 315 a can be established on the conductive layer 315, or conductive layers 316 and 315, together as the indirectly heated cathode. In such an embodiment, the conductive layer 315 or the both conductive layers 316 and 315 together function as the heater for the cathode. Electron emission materials, in this case, will be deposited on top of the cathode conductor. As of the conductor being bonded on the surface of the insulating substrate of ceramics, glasses, etc., this suspended conducting layer can be used as either the heater conductor or the cathode conductor depending on the manufacturing processes and applications of the devices. Subsequent buildup of either the heater or the cathode will follow accordingly.
In one embodiment of the above-described fabrication method, it may be preferred to remove the filling material under the air bridge structure after the electron emitting material 313 is disposed on the conductive layer 315. This embodiment allows the filling material to support the air bridge structure of the cathode 351 during the application of the electron emitting material 313.
Although a cathode 351 having a conductive 315 layer and insulating layer 316 is disclosed as one illustrative embodiment, the cathode 351 may comprise a variety of layers or combinations of layers to form the air bridge of the cathode 351. For instance, in another embodiment, the cathode 351 shown in
In yet another embodiment, the cathode 351 comprises a single conductive layer and an electron emitting material. In this embodiment, the single conductive layer is configured in a manner similar to the configuration of the insulating layer 316 of

When the second substrate 320 of the cathode 351 is affixed to the first substrate 301, all oxygen and other impure gasses are removed from the area surrounding the cathode 351, grid 312, and anode 305. In one embodiment, a vacuum environment is formed in the enclosed area created by the seal 321, first substrate 301 and second substrate 320. The pressure of a vacuum is often controlled envision meant having an extremely reduced oxygen content prevents oxidation as often degradation of the component and materials existing within the region of the controlled environment. Alternatively, the enclosed area created by the seal 321, first substrate 301 and second substrate 320 may be filled with a gas that permits the flow of electrons between the cathode 351 and anode 305. Such examples of a filling gas include hydrogen, helium, argon, and mercury. In the construction of the through-hole embodiment, the outer surface of the through-hole in the substrate 320 can be sealed by the use of another platform, such as a carrier of the circuit. This carrier can be microelectronic MEMS, MST, or other types of packaging materials such as semiconductors, ceramics, glasses, etc. Referring now to

The operation of the diode is similar to that of a standard diode; however, in this embodiment, the diode 400 is operated by the activation of the thermal source 314.

In this illustrative example, an anode voltage controller 704 is electronically connected to the anode 305 for providing a positive voltage to the anode 305 so that it attracts electrons emitted from the electron-emitting material 313. As described above, in response to receiving electrons, the anode 305 produces an electrical current that can be utilized by external circuitry 705. A first voltage controller 702 is connected to one grid layer 329 and a second voltage controller 703 is electronically connected to the other grid layer 328. Similar to a control circuit of a traditional tetrode formed in a vacuum tube, the first and second voltage controllers 702 and 703 provide a varied voltage signal to the grid layers 328 and 329 to control the flow of electrons received by the anode 305. In other embodiments, any of the voltage controllers, such as the second voltage controller 703, may be coupled to a ground source. Accordingly, the amount of electrons received by the anode effectively controls the current produced by the anode 305. The current produced by the anode 305 is then communicated to an external circuit 705. Although this embodiment illustrates a tetrode having two independent voltage controllers for each grid, other embodiments having one or more control circuits can be used to control any number of grid layers of the solid state vacuum devices disclosed herein.
By the use of the fabrication methods disclosed herein, other higher order devices can be implemented by applying additional grid layers on top of the grid layers of any one of the embodiments described herein. The additional grid layers may be applied to any one of the disclosed embodiments by the use of any one of the above-described fabrication methods. For instance, in an example utilizing the embodiments of
The pentode device 800 of
Employing such multi-grid devices, as described above, will result in improvements in the gain and frequency performance of the device. In conventional vacuum device manufacturing, it is difficult to achieve desired grid alignment both due to the physical configuration of the grid. For example, in the form of a helix and the manufacturing method used for form the helix, such as a wire winding. Accordingly, the methods, techniques and approaches of the present invention provide a better alignment of the multi-grids. In addition, the methods, techniques and approaches of the present invention provide an improved manufacturing process of such multi-grids.
While several embodiments of the invention have been illustrated and described, it will be appreciated that various changes can be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Similarly, any process steps described herein might be interchangeable with other steps in order to achieve the same result. In addition, the illustrative examples described above are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the invention to the precise forms disclosed. For instance, one embodiment of a solid state vacuum device may comprise an array having a number of diodes, triodes, or any other higher-order devices combined onto one substrate. By fabricating duplicate devices, or various combinations thereof, on one substrate, high-power solid state vacuum device can be formed. In such a modification, each individual device should be separated and insulated from one another by the use of gaps or voids. In addition, such device arrays should be separated by a high temperature insulator material such as ceramic, silicon dioxide, sapphire, or the like.

Ex-Butler County commissioner publishes history of the county
Daily American Republic
Robert Manns recently wrote the book "A Fond Look Back," about the history of Butler County. He will be at the MoArk Railroad Museum in Poplar Bluff today and Sunday from 1 to 4 p.m. to sign copes of the book.By Lonnie Thiele ~ Daily American Republic
POPLAR BLUFF, Mo. -- A new book about Butler County is full of interesting trivia:
Factory workers from Poplar Bluff made boots for the U.S. Army during World War II. Qulin was full of saloons around the turn of the 20th century that led to many brawls, shoot-outs and killings that practically filled the local cemetery. It was 280 years after the first explorer set foot in Butler County before the first settler arrived. The first 10-key adding machine was manufactured in Poplar Bluff.
Robert Manns, 69, local historian and former county commissioner, said he spent a year compiling information for "A Fond Look Back," which covers the history of Butler County primarily in the 1800s and early 1900s.
The 75-page hardcover book was published by Stinson Press in Poplar Bluff. Many of the chapters are about early Butler County communities.
"I tried to take most of the cities in the county and see who the first settlers were and describe how they made a living," Manns said. "I start out with archaeology, Indian fords, early caves. Then I talk about the early life on the Black River and the early days. Then I get into railroads."
Manns has donated several copies of the book to local libraries, city and county officials and the historic commission.
Several chapters in the book are from a series of articles he wrote for the Daily American Republic.
Manns, who was born and raised in Butler County, in Chapter 12 writes about growing up on the family farm south of Poplar Bluff: "As a teen-ager, I had a cotton pick-sack. On Saturdays and days off from school in the fall, I caught a truck early in the morning at Fifth and Park to go pick cotton.... I remember killing my first goose on Swanner's Lake. That was the same day I fell through the ice there."
The book was released two weeks ago and since then Manns has scheduled several promotions. From 6 a.m. to 6:30 a.m. Sunday, Manns will appear on "Perspectives," a KFVS-12 TV show hosted by Mike Shain. Manns will be at the MoArk Railroad Museum in Poplar Bluff today and Sunday from 1 to 4 p.m. to sell and autograph books. He plans to visit all of the senior centers in Poplar Bluff within the next two weeks.
The book sells for $15.
"Five dollars of that goes to the MoArk Railroad Museum for repair of the building," Manns said.
