Canine musical freestyle is a wonderful, fun dog sport where moving to music showcases the bonding between handler and dog. Some people think of this as dancing with dogs. Redwood Empire Doggy Dancers (REDD) is a small club in Northern California. Our members live in Sonoma County, Marin County, Humboldt County, the San Francisco East Bay and the San Francisco South Bay. We organize freestyle titling competitions and workshops in Santa Rosa and other Bay Area locations. Club members get together throughout the year to help each other train and choreograph routines.
We are a World Canine Freestyle Organization (WCFO) club.
Some of our REDD members teach freestyle lessons and classes. For information on freestyle lessons and classes, contact Laurie Rubin (707) 829-7950.

Office Manager
I facilitate our front office operations including patient scheduling and billing. It is my goal to make our office run as smooth and efficiently as possible. I also try to make our office fun and lighthearted, too. We love to laugh and see our patients smile. In fact, "service with a smile" is how we like to run things here!
My time outside of the office is spent with my husband and our two children. We love going to the beach.
Debbie R.
Registered Dental Assistant
I work chairside with Dr. Kim and perform all the necessary duties to create beautiful smiles for our patients. I also help oversee and maintain our lab where we make retainers to keep our patients' smiles looking amazing. I enjoy talking with our patients and getting to know them a little bit better each time they come to the office. Working in orthodontics has been such a great experience. Seeing our patients' smile at the end of their treatment is so rewarding!
I am married with a son and a daughter. When I'm not working, I enjoy working out, going to the beach, attending concerts, and relaxing with friends and family.
Debbie T.
Registered Dental Assistant
I work chairside with Dr. Kim and I am also responsible for ordering supplies for our office. I love getting to know our patients, joking around with them, and in general making their experience with us one to remember. The best part of working here is seeing the progress of our patients' smiles, especially the end result. Many of our patients feel right at home when they walk in the door, and when they tell us that, I know our team has been successful!
At home, I have a wonderful husband and three great kids. In my leisure time I enjoy watching my kids' sports, skiing, going to the beach, and being with my friends and family.
Registered Dental Assistant
I love making people smile! At Raymond Kim Orthodontics, I work alongside Dr. Kim during patient appointments and get new patients set up with all their records before treatment begins. I have always loved working with people; I learn new things from them every day! It's very fulfilling to see a patient's individual progress from start to finish. They always end up with a great smile!
I am happily married with three sons, one daughter, and a dog. I love to dance, go to the beach and pool in the summer, and spend time with my family and friends.
Registered Dental Assistant
I can be found working alongside Dr. Kim with a friendly smile and a compassionate attitude during many of our patients' procedures. I understand that a visit to the orthodontist can be a little stressful, but I hope that my gentle demeanor provides comfort to those who need it. I also love to laugh and have fun with our patients; there's nothing like seeing those beautiful smiles in action!
My husband, Glenn, and I have two sons, Samuel and Adam, and a baby girl named Phoebe. My first daughter, Madelynn, is in heaven. I have two dogs, Wilson and Abby; three cats, Michalina, Pepe, and Vador; and two birds, Lucky and Noname. I'm obviously a big lover of animals! My free time is spent going to concerts, at the beach, and bike riding. I also run a nonprofit called the Tears Foundation, which helps financially with families dealing with the loss of an infant. I also run emotional meetings as we gather to share hope every Thursday night
Front Desk/Receptionist
I work mainly at the front desk greeting patients, scheduling appointments, and answering any questions patients and their families may have. I greet everyone with a "happy to see you" smile when they come in the office. It is my goal for everyone to feel welcome and comfortable when they're in our office. Because I get to visit with each patient when they come in, I really feel like I get to know them on a personal level. These relationships are the best parts of my job.
I have two wonderful children, and while we don't have any pets right now, I'd love to get a puppy! When I'm not working I enjoy going to the beach, walking, gardening, cooking, and spending time with family and friends.
Dental Assistant
I spend my day setting up instruments, preparing the treatment rooms for patient visits and assisting the clinical staff. I love that I get to learn something new everyday. I greet everyone with a warm and friendly smile. Everyone at Dr. Kim's office is funny, caring and really personable. It is a joy to work here!
In my spare time, I like to bake, read, take long walks and go on road trips.

Check this – Great Golf Tips That You Can Try Out Today!
While playing golf and in the correct position to swing, make sure to shift your hips with a rapid motion so your weight moves to the forward foot from the back one. By following these steps, you can get that extra yardage you have always been seeking.
If the morning, when the grass may still be damp, is your ideal time for a golf game, stay away from any sneaker-like golf shoe. These shoes are great for a comfortable round of golf, but offer little when it comes to protection from moisture and wet grass. Even though there are a few brands that offer waterproof styles in this type of golf shoe, they are difficult to find. Be certain to keep a pure mental focus and concentration on your next stroke. Don't allow the success or failure of previous shots or looming hazards distract you from the perfect shot in front of you. If you are still mad at yourself for a mistake you made on the last hole, your swing off the next tee will not go well. Always concentrate on the next shot, and let the past ones stay in the past.
If you have to putt a ball across a large green, pay special attention to the speed of your putt. Rather than aiming right for the hole, aim for somewhere before the hole. You will set up a short putt for yourself and not run the risk of hitting the ball too far or not far enough. Pay attention when you're golfing. When your turn to play arrives, you must be prepared. There will be fellow golfers waiting to play on the hole that you are at, and they will not appreciate long delays due to you not being ready to take your shot. Instead of getting stuck on this one problem, it is better to focus on a finding a way around it. It could be an advantage in the long run, and make your golf style unique.
In any sport like golf your body plays a pivotal factor in your performance. Don't just rely on your arms for power, use the formidable power of your entire body. A great swing utilizes nearly every muscle of the body in order to place the club in optimum position. This allows you to increase your distance without placing unnecessary strain on your arms. Prior to striking the ball, allow yourself a deep breath that cleanses your mind. Use as much time as you need to calm yourself down and sharpen your focus on the ball. Take the time you require to mentally picture where down the fairway you wish your ball to land before you take your swing. In a competitive setting, deep breathing can also reduce tension. So, your ball has landed in the sand; therefore, you should be courteous to the golfers who are behind you! Once finished with your shot, take a few seconds to carefully rake the trap. It is impolite to leave your footprints and club markings on the sand trap to interfere with the path of another player's ball. Once you've hit your ball out, rake the trap out for the next golfer. Sometimes, improvements can be slow in coming and other times, your success will be speedy, but it all comes with practice and knowing what will work for you. Try these different tips the next time you are out for a round of golf, find a few that suit you well and before long your game will be elevated!
Don't let your attention shift away from the ball during your golf swing. It's a golden rule for many sports, but it's especially applicable to golf. Thus, you should keep a lowered head with your vision remaining firmly on your ball from the point you take stance until the end of your follow-through. Keep your eyes where you want the ball to go, and stand roughly four feet behind it. Make sure to keep in mind conditions that affect the ball's flight, like wind. These few moments spent contemplating the shot will aid you in your alignment and direction. This will give you more confidence as you stand over your shot.
Hybrid clubs offer the best of both worlds, improving shots for golfers of all levels. It combines the best of both worlds. The head of the club is bigger than an average iron, which improves hitting distance, while the shaft is built for ball control. The control offered by these clubs may greatly improve how golfers play the sport.
Make sure your grip is neither too loose nor too tight. If you grip the handle of your club too tightly, your shot will veer off towards the right. On the contrary, holding the club too loosely will steer the ball to the left. You can correct your grip based on which direction your ball takes.

God is talking to king Solomon in the Old Testament
It is important to note that there are conditions to God hearing our prayers. We have to humble ourselves before God (not government, or the people we are trying to reach) pray and seek his face and turn from our wicked ways. Only then He will hear us, forgive our sin and "heal the land".
Of course, if we are the self-righteous and take no responsibility for letting the deconstructionists take a wrecking ball to America, no need for moral reform or verse 14.
Another point: The New Covenant concept of the temple being in our hearts and minds, as God no longer has to be reached through the high priest in the temple.
He now dwells within us!
…and always the warnings for turning away and forsaking the Commandments
2 Chronicles 7:12-16 12 Then the Lord appeared to Solomon by night, and said to him: "I have heard your prayer, and have chosen this place for Myself as a house of sacrifice.
13 "When I shut up Heaven and there is no rain, or command the locusts to devour the land, or send pestilence among My people,
14 "if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and forgive their sin and heal their land.
15 "Now My eyes will be open and My ears attentive to prayer made in this place.
16 "For now I have chosen and sanctified this house, that My name may be there forever; and My eyes and My heart will be there perpetually.

Kellogg, UMass on point
|Coach Derek Kellogg is hoping to produce smiles on the faces of Minutemen fans -- no matter their size -- everywhere. (File/Matthew J. Lee/The Boston Globe)
AMHERST -- Two years ago the basketball-loving leader was swept into office, promising hope and change. He talked about a return to the prosperity of the mid-1990s. But now in November 2010, looking ahead to Year 3, there is a new reality staring him in the face.
For University of Massachusetts basketball coach Derek Kellogg, it is a time of reckoning.
Kellogg, the one-time UMass point guard on four straight NCAA Tournament teams coached by John Calipari from 1992-95, returned in 2008 to coach his alma mater, which hadn't been to the big dance in a decade.
Kellogg's first two seasons didn't exactly seem like a primer on how to reach the prom either. Year 1 was a wash, in part because he was hired late in the game after former coach Travis Ford headed to Oklahoma State. Kellogg came in too late to attract a solid recruiting class, and the Minutemen took their lumps in a 12-18 season.
Last year Kellogg brought in a slew of newcomers. The four freshmen -- Terrell Vinson, Javorn Farrell, Freddie Riley, and Sampson Carter -- started at least seven games (Vinson started all 32); all averaged more than 15 minutes. UMass managed just a 12-20 record, the school's first 20-loss campaign since 1983.
Were the Minutemen heading in the wrong direction, or were these just the growing pains before the growth?
Kellogg is confident it's the latter, and that UMass is about to climb the ladder.
"We have some definite pieces -- guys who are in the program and going to be in the program who will make a big difference,'' said Kellogg, who in 2008 was one of Calipari's assistants on the Memphis team that made it to the NCAA championship game (losing in overtime to Kansas). "Can we do something this year? I'm not sure yet. We're going to need two guys this year to step up and be better than anybody anticipates. Or we're going to need to have one of the greatest 8-10 man rotations in the country.
"But I'm envisioning having a great year this year and really moving forward next year, having it on solid footing so that every year from that point on it's the way it should be.''
Hopes for a hoops resurrection begin with the foursome of returning sophomores. Vinson is the most polished of the bunch, a 6-foot-7-inch force in the post with good shooting range. He averaged 9.6 points and 5.4 rebounds a year ago. Farrell is arguably the team's leader in just his second year ("Our hardest worker, the guy who will push practice the best,'' said Kellogg). The 6-5 swingman brings the kind of defensive intensity Kellogg loves.
Riley is UMass's Vinnie Johnson (aka "The Microwave.'') He showed his ability to heat up fast a year ago, hitting 11 3-pointers over a two-game stretch.
Carter is the prototype of the long, lean (6-8, 200 pounds) players Kellogg prefers in his system. Look for Kellogg to send in the clones with newcomers Maxie Esho (6-8, 200) and Raphiael Putney (6-8, 180).
UMass's post presence will be provided by Vinson and by Sean Carter and Hashim Bailey. Carter, a one-time Oregon State Beaver, was brilliant at times last year, notably scoring 11 points and hauling down 19 rebounds in an overtime win at Duquesne. Bailey, a transfer from Memphis, will hope to show that his "Big City'' nickname applies more to bulk than mobility as he tries to build off last year's 2.5 points and 4.7 rebounds per game.
Scoring might be UMass's biggest challenge. The Minutemen will have to pick up the slack for the graduation of Ricky Harris, who left as the school's third all-time leading scorer, pouring in 19.8 points per game a year ago.
Kellogg believes this team will have better balance. The top returning scorer is senior Anthony Gurley, who grew up in Boston and began his collegiate career at Wake Forest. Gurley averaged 13.2 points per game a year ago, but sometimes barreled into the lane in offense-killing ways, forcing up bad shots.
"I think we're going to win a lot more this year,'' said Gurley. "We put in the work, and it's all starting to come together.''
Another offensive threat is Jesse Morgan, a transfer from Seton Hall, who was a big-time scorer in high school in Philadelphia. Morgan becomes eligible in the second semester.
The team's most interesting personnel situation resides at point guard, the post Kellogg once occupied. There UMass will have a platoon of senior Gary Correia and freshman Daryl Traynham.
Correia is the longest-tenured Minuteman, the only one to have played for Travis Ford. By his own definition, Correia has "underachieved since I've been here,'' but he is determined to change that in his last go-round. According to Kellogg, Correia has returned in the best shape of his collegiate career and with his best attitude, ready to embrace the leadership role. A big part of that, Correia knows, is paving the way for the 5-9 Traynham, who is being looked upon to lead the team back to the promised land.
"He's the future,'' says Correia. "I'm not playing any more after this, so I'll make sure he's ready. Me and Little Daryl bring something different to the table. I'm a little more under control. I want to be a coach, so I understand the game a little better than he does. But he brings something I don't have. He brings speed. He creates havoc on both ends of the court. I think we complement each other very, very well.''
As for Little Daryl, he says that he is in an ideal spot, with a former UMass point guard as a coach and a steady senior ready to mentor him. He knows he is not experienced enough to make any realistic pronouncement about this team's success, but he feels confident better days are ahead.
"It's there," said Traynham, bursting with enthusiasm. "I can see the light.''

Dave Holland: What Goes Around (big band version)
What Goes Around
Dave Holland Big Band
What Goes Around (ECM 1777)
Dave Holland (bass), Antonio Hart (alto sax, flute), Billy Kilson (drums), Chris Potter (tenor sax), Gary Smulyan (baritone sax), Steve Nelson (vibes),
Mark Gross (alto), Andre Hayward (trombone), Josh Roseman (trombone), Earl Gardner (trumpet, flugelhorn), Alex Sipiagin (trumpet, flugelhorn), Duane Eubanks (trumpet, flugelhorn).
Recorded: Avatar Studios, New York, January 2001
Rating: 92/100 (learn more)
After early recordings with Miles Davis and Chick Corea (Circle), bassist Dave Holland established himself as a leader with a long-running quartet and quintet known for complex, through-composed pieces usually including multiple odd-meter passages and collective improvisation. His most recent quintet of Kilson (now Nate Smith), Potter, R. Eubanks, and Nelson was augmented by eight more players to form a big band for the first time in 2001. Holland's already complex quintet material is compounded here with even more cross-rhythms and thematic variation for the big band. The musicians seamlessly execute the 11/4 melody (alternating measures 6/4 and 5/4).

I have just purchased the QC1102 motor to replace my old 1hp motor (K48L2PA105) I have a max e glas II pump (P4E6E-151L). The circuit breaker in the subpanel outside are double pole 15 amp (30 amp total). Is this the correct timer? I can't tell what timer I currently have as all labeling is gone.
Hi Cory, This is the correct timer that you can use with a double pole timer and the QC1102 motor.
I have a 1.5 HP pump for circulation and a 1.5 HP booster pump for my pool sweep. Will this control both if I wanted them to come on at the same time?
Hi, The Intermatic Timer 220 Volt Metal Enclosure can handle the two pumps if the max load does not exceed 40 amps.
Does this timer have knockouts for the electrical and where are they located?
Here is all the information we have regarding the knockouts: Knockouts - Combination 1/2" - 3/4" nominal knockouts, one on the back and each side of case, two on bottom
How many on/off devices come with the unit? I am using this for my eletric hot water heater, I want the heater to come on around 5:00AM and off at 7:00AM, then on again at 5:00PM and off and 7:00PM. So I guess I'm asking can I program two on and off's or do I have to buy something else?
This timer comes with one "On" tripper and one "Off" tripper but can accommodate up to 12 On/Off positions. So to accomplish the following "...come on around 5:00AM and off at 7:00AM, then on again at 5:00PM and off and 7:00PM" You would require the purchase of the timer which comes with 2 trippers, plus the purchase of one additional set of on / off trippers which you may view or purchase here http://www.inyopools.com/Products/02400004003526.htm
I have a T104R timer is this the proper replacement?
The T104R3 or the T104P3 are direct replacements for any T104 timer. The only difference between these two timers is that the T104R3 comes in a metal enclosure and the T104P3 comes in a plastic enclosure.
My pool pump motor indicates V115/230. Will thistimer accommodate the pool pump? Also,can you tell me the voltage on the clock motor?
Your pump can be wired either 115V or 230V If you have your pool pump wired at 230V than you would want to go with the T104P3 timer if you have the pump wired at 115V than you would want to go with the T101P3 timer. T104P3 timer has a 230V time clock motor and the T101P3 timer has a 115V time clock motor. You may purchase either of these time clocks through the following link http://www.inyopools.com/controls_intermatic.aspx

About Me Avid Do-It-Yourselfer
Comments about Comfort Zone Comfort 3 Speed Zone Pedestal Fan - Black:
I bought this fan end of May. It was really just OK. But considering the price, I lived with it! It's a bit noisier than any fans I had in the past but I got used it. I took good care of. The fan was not running 24/7. I would turn it on in the evening through the night, then turn it off when going to work in the morning. But one evening, it just wouldn't turn on. The alternator sounded dead. And it's July! 2 months use!
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Sunday Severe Storms Hit Brainerd Area HardSevere weather rolled across northern Minnesota Sunday night, and areas around Brainerd appear to be the hardest hit.
4 Things To Know For Dec. 27, 2015Here's a look at the four things you need to know for Dec. 27, 2015.
4 Things To Know For Dec. 25, 2015 Here's a look at the four things you need to know for Dec. 25, 2015.
Gov. Dayton To Visit Brainerd Lakes AreaGov. Mark Dayton plans to visit the Brainerd Lakes area on Friday to survey the damage caused by Sunday's severe thunderstorms. The clean-up still continues after winds up to 80 miles per hour toppled trees and damaged properties.
Sunday Storms May Have Spawned 4 Tornado TouchdownsForecasters say at least four unconfirmed tornadoes may have touched down in western Minnesota when strong storms moved through the state. There will be a big cleanup in the Brainerd Lakes area because of a number of big trees coming down during Monday night's storm.
Twin Cities Under Tornado Watch Until 1 A.M.A hot and humid Sunday will be followed by evening severe storms. Meteorologist Mike Augustyniak says Minnesotans are seeing the highest threat for severe weather this year, with the possibility of tornadoes, damaging winds and hail.
A Look Back At Wadena's 2010 Tornado DevastationThe tornado that tore through the town of Wadena in 2010 left 4,000 community members working tirelessly to clean up the extensive damage. From the air, it looked like a war zone. Homes were flattened; a church was destroyed; school buses were covered in debris from all that was left of Wadena Deer Creek High School.
Lauren's Science Corner: Minnesota May TornadoesYou could say that May opens the door to tornado season in Minnesota, yet the month only experiences five tornadoes on average annually. Thus, for eight tornadoes to impact the state in one day is on the rarer side.
More Severe Weather, Snow On The WayAfter tornadoes, strong winds and heavy rains swept across western Minnesota on Saturday, more severe weather is on the way.
Assessment Crews Respond To Iowa Town Hit By TornadoAssessment crews have been dispatched to gauge the damage caused by a tornado that tore through a central Iowa town, uprooting trees, ripping apart the roof of the local high school and leaving shreds of pink insulation strewn throughout the streets.
Tornado Sirens Sound Twice Thursday For Severe Weather Awareness WeekTornadoes, thunderstorms and damaging hail. Minnesota gets its fair share of severe weather. That's why the state is observing Sever Weather Awareness week.
4 Things To Know: Midwest Tornadoes, Apple Watch & MoreThese are the four things you need to know about from Friday, April 10. They include a series of violent storms and a story reaction to Bert Blyleven's tweets about Detroit.

Rafal Kulik, 38, from Nelson, Lancs, appeared in Brunley Magistrates Court on Friday and was sentenced to a 12-month conditional discharge for picking up the family dog during a drunken fit of rage and throwing the dog into the television set reported the Lancashire Telegraph.
The impact of the mixed breed dog, named Max hitting the television, broke the screen. Luckily, Kulik's two children rushed into the room and removed the dog who miraculously was not harmed.
In addition to the conditional discharge, Kulik will be required to serve 100 hours of community service and was fined a total of $578. Local animal rescues and humane advocates called the deed" just shocking and totally unacceptable."
On May 7, Kulik's argument with his wife, mixed with the man's heavy alcohol consumption, turned into a terrible scene as he became verbally abusive. During the court hearing, Kulik also admitted to threatening his wife that he would throw acid on her face.
The defendant pleaded guilty to causing Max unnecessary suffering to a protected animal, breaking the television, and breaking a mirror.
"This man needs jail time and some intense anger management therapy," stated Alicia Conway, a retired psychologist from New York City. "It's dangerous to allow such violent behavior to go unchecked and just excuse it without addressing the real problem."
Cllr Paul Brown, Blackburn with Darwen Council, stated Kulik should be in jail and added:
"Getting away so lightly makes a joke of the law. The sentence is very lenient. The dog is completely defenseless and has done nothing to deserve this; it is shocking. The person should certainly be banned from keeping animals in the future."

I've never seen a springtail that looked quite like that. Most that I see are the velvety gray or black ones found on snow, decaying leaves, fungi, or floating on the surface of water.
According to Borror & DeLong's An Introduction to the Study of Insects, the globular springtails are in the family Sminthuridae. The book is from 1971 & the taxonomy may have changed, though.
Holy cow! I've tried to take pictures of springtails, and it's VERY hard. Congrats for the great pic!

How to (sort of) get Truetransparency on Win7A lot of people ask me how to make TrueTransparency play nice with Windows 7.How to (sort of) get Truetransparency on Win7 by mangosango
The short answer is: You can... well sort of.
Here are the general problems (I'm going to assume people with Win7 are on the 64-bit version, or Win7 x64).
1) Explorer windows are not skinned (or any 64-bit programs for that matter).
2) Explorer windows skin, but the toolbar is completely transparent.
First, you will need both TrueTransparency x86 and x64.
For your convenience, here is a zip with both (x64 can be hard to find): http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7100381/TrueTransparency.zip
To skin all windows, you will need to run both the TrueTransparency.exe in the TrueTransparency x64 AND TrueTransparency x86 folders.
At this point, all windows should be skinned (with the exclusion of "special" windows like Google chrome, Command Prompt, GIMP/Photoshop, Task Manager, etc.
You may notice that the explorer toolbar is completely transparent. There are two workarounds for this.
One involves removing the too

Diamond Calls for 'Level Playing Field' Around Capital, Accounting and Compensation
A few months ago, Barclays complained that new U.K. rules on bank bonuses would put it and other British banks at a competitive disadvantage globally. At the Wall Street Journal's Future of Finance conference today, Barclays President Bob Diamond, indicated his concerns about a level compensation playing field have perhaps been eclipsed by a different issue: capital requirements for banks.
Holding more capital is more expensive for banks and could hamper Diamond's ambitions to become a major player on Wall Street and globally — his goal as he builds Barclays Capital, the investment-banking arm of Barclays PLC that swallowed up Lehman's broker-dealer last year.
There's a "massive opportunity for regulatory arbitrage" if such requirements are not universally applied, Diamond said, during an interview at the conference in West Sussex, England.
Diamond said that that an unlevel playing field for capital requirements would have the same effect on London as Sarbanes-Oxley had on New York. Sarbanes-Oxley, which aimed to strengthen corporate accounting controls, was believed to have driven business from Wall Street to London, where regulators had a lighter touch.
"It is extremely important today that, around the large economies and financial centers, we create a level playing field around capital, accounting, and compensation," he said.
Regulators "could put London at a competitive disadvantage to New York," he added later.
At a question-and-answer session Monday night, Diamond told U.K. Treasury chief Alistair Darling that the U.K. had "an opportunity" to ensure requirements on capital under the newest Basel Accord proposals be applied fairly across jurisdictions.
Diamond's worries about capital rules come as he sees signs that the U.S. and U.K. are getting on the same page in terms of compensation rules, he said Monday.
Concern about compensation has hardly disappeared. Diamond did say a so-called "windfall tax," which the U.K. has indicated it could impose on bankers' bonuses, contravenes the spirit of the G-20 principles on pay.
Yet tougher capital requirements for U.K. banks compared to their international peers seems to have moved up the hit-list of Barclays regulatory issues it believes could crimp its global ambitions.

This is a Divisional Application of Ser. No. 09/687,906 filed Oct. 12, 2000, now U.S. Pat. No. 6,737,728.
1. Field of the Invention
The invention relates generally to integrated circuits, and more particularly to the formation of interlayer decoupling capacitors.
2. Background
Advances in semiconductor manufacturing technology have led to the integration of tens, and more recently hundreds, of millions of circuit elements, such as transistors, on a single integrated circuit (IC). To achieve such dramatic increases in the density of circuit components has required semiconductor manufacturers to scale down the size of the circuit elements and the interconnection structures used to connect the circuit elements into functional circuitry, as well as scaling down the spacing between the interconnect.
When transistors in these high density integrated circuits demand high current at high frequencies, there can be both global and localized voltage drops on the power grid of the IC. This voltage drop can be reduced by providing localized sources of current, such as capacitors, which de-couple current surges from the power grid, and thereby reduce noise on the power grid. Conventionally, de-coupling capacitance in electronic systems that include ICs on printed circuit boards has been accomplished in two main ways. Firstly, through the use of off-chip capacitors which are located nearby on the printed circuit board, or incorporated into the package of the integrated circuit, and secondly, with the on-chip capacitors formed from the very thin gate dielectric layers found in MOS integrated circuits. The off-chip capacitor configuration includes parasitic inductance arising from the length of the wiring needed to connect the off-chip capacitors with the IC, which in turn limits its effectiveness for high frequency noise. The off-chip capacitors also provide little or no benefits for localized voltage droops. Additionally, extra manufacturing cost is associated with products using this approach because a separate discrete component is used. With respect to the capacitors formed with gate dielectric layers, these provide limited capacitive de-coupling due to the small area fraction of the chip that can be cost-effectively dedicated to decoupling capacitors. The limited area constrains the magnitude of the capacitance that can be achieved. In addition these gate dielectric capacitors have leakage currents which contribute to unacceptable power consumption.
What is needed are area-efficient decoupling capacitors having reduced parasitic inductances, and methods of the making these.
The terms, chip, integrated circuit, monolithic device, semiconductor device, and microelectronic device, are often used interchangeably in this field. The present invention is applicable to all the above as they are generally understood in the field.
BST refers to barium strontium titinate.
The expression, low dielectric constant material, refers to materials having a lower dielectric constant than silicon dioxide. For example, organic polymers, amorphous fluorinated carbons, nanofoams, silicon based insulators containing organic polymers, and both fluorine-doped and carbon-doped oxides of silicon have lower dielectric constants than silicon dioxide.
The letter k, is often used to refer to dielectric constant. Similarly, the terms high-k, and low-k, are used in this field to refer to high dielectric constant and low dielectric constant respectively, where high means greater than the dielectric constant of silicon dioxide, and low means lower than the dielectric constant of silicon dioxide.
The terms metal line, trace, wire, conductor, signal path and signaling medium are all related. The related terms listed above, are generally interchangeable, and appear in order from specific to general. In this field, metal lines are sometimes referred to as traces, wires, lines, interconnect, interconnect lines, or simply metal. Metal lines, such as aluminum (Al), copper (Cu), an alloy of Al and Cu, an alloy of Al, Cu and silicon (Si), tungsten (W), and nickel (Ni) are conductors that provide signal paths for coupling, or interconnecting, electrical circuitry. Other conductors, both metal and non-metal are available in microelectronic devices. Materials such as doped polysilicon, doped single-crystal silicon (often referred to simply as diffusion, regardless of whether such doping is achieved by thermal diffusion, ion implantation, or source gas mix in an epitaxial growth or selective silicon deposition), titanium (Ti), molybdenum (Mo), and refractory metal suicides are examples of other conductors. Those skilled in the art will recognize that the foregoing is an exemplary, and not an exhaustive, list of conductive materials.
Briefly, on-chip decoupling capacitor structures, and methods of fabricating such decoupling capacitors are disclosed. On-chip decoupling capacitors help to reduce or prevent voltage droop on the power grid for high surge current conditions (V=L di/dt). The inclusion of one or more decoupling capacitors on a chip, directly between the power grid conductors reduces the parasitic inductance found in conventional solutions, and thereby provides improved decoupling performance with respect to high frequency noise.
Reference herein to "one embodiment", "an embodiment", or similar formulations, means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment is included in at least one embodiment of the present invention. Thus, the appearances of such phrases or formulations herein are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment. Furthermore, various particular features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.
In one embodiment of the present invention, a capacitor stack structure is formed between metal interconnect layers during the back-end of a semiconductor manufacturing process. Such a capacitor stack may consist of a bottom electrode/barrier, a thin dielectric material having a high dielectric constant, and a top electrode/barrier.
An illustrative method embodying the present invention, includes fabricating the on-chip decoupling capacitor stack structure and electrically connecting the capacitor to copper interconnect lines to provide efficient capacitive de-coupling. In order to facilitate the removal of photoresist by an oxygen plasma process prior to exposing Cu during the capacitor stack etch, an Al hardmask can be used to protect the capacitor formed with Ta2O5, dielectric, or a W hardmask can be used to protect the capacitor formed with BST dielectric.
In another embodiment of the present invention, a three dimensional bottom electrode is formed to increase the area, and therefore the capacitance, of the capacitor. The non-planarity that gives the increased surface area of the capacitor per unit area of the chip on which the capacitor is fabricated can be achieved in several ways. Methods of obtaining the non-planar capacitor include, but are not limited to, deposition and high aspect ratio patterning of a dielectric layer under the bottom electrode, deposition of a rough bottom electrode, surface modification of the bottom electrode to provide increased surface area, and surface modification of the Cu to provide increased surface area. A low cost approach to implementing the 3-D template uses the via mask to simultaneously pattern the 3-D template for the capacitor. That is, in a damascene metallization scheme, the via openings and the 3-D template are formed by the same set of operations.
In another aspect of the present invention, in order to reduce the risk of conductive re-deposition on the sidewalls of the etched stack, it is desirable to not have to etch through the bottom electrode. This can be accomplished by selectively depositing a bottom electrode on Cu metal surface through selective electro-less plating of the conducting bottom electrode.
As shown in
A barrier layer of silicon nitride 107 is disposed over capacitor stack 100. Silicon nitride layer 107 is a barrier to the diffusion of copper. Layer 107 may be used as an etch stop layer during the manufacturing process. Electrically insulating materials other than silicon nitride may be used as a barrier to prevent copper diffusion in alternative embodiments of the present invention.
Capacitor stack 100 is disposed in close proximity to, or preferably directly on the copper interconnects to make electrical contact to bottom electrode 104. Cu is deposited over top electrode 106 of capacitor stack 100. Preferably, the capacitor is located close to the power and ground nodes (or whichever nodes are being decoupled) to reduce the parasitic inductance.
In one embodiment of the present invention, as shown in
A top view of the physical layout of an IC including decoupling capacitors in accordance with the present invention is shown in
The increase in capacitance, Delta, which is due to the application of 3-D texturing to increase the area between electrodes, can be estimated by the following equation:
Delta=[(a*h)+a 2]/(a 2)
Where h, a, and b are as defined in
An alternative embodiment is shown in
The dielectric material selected for use in the present invention should have a high-k value, low leakage current and low loss at high frequencies. High-k dielectric materials such as BST and Ta2O5 are the presently preferred materials but the invention is not limited to these materials. Since high-k dielectric films are generally formed in an oxidizing atmosphere, it is necessary to prevent the oxidation of Cu interconnects when these are used in embodiments of the present invention. This can be accomplished by having capacitor electrodes that also act as an oxygen barrier. In the case of BST dielectric films, the electrodes should be made of metals which do not oxidize, or if they do oxidize, the resulting oxide should be conductive. Pt, Ru, and Ir are examples of materials with the required properties for making the capacitor electrodes separated by BST.
In the situation where the capacitor electrodes are permeable to oxygen, a separate conductive barrier material disposed between the electrode and the dielectric layer is desirable to prevent oxygen from reaching the Cu. The oxygen barrier material should preferably be conductive. TiN and TaN possess preferred characteristics for barrier materials in accordance with the present invention. Electrode material that is not permeable to oxygen could also act as an oxygen barrier to the Cu. When Ta2O5 is used as the dielectric material, TaN, TiN or WN may be used as electrode material since they are conductive and act as an oxygen barrier and as a Cu diffusion barrier.
Incorporating the formation of a capacitor stack in accordance with the present invention, into the backend interconnect process requires consideration of how to not increase unnecessarily the number of masks and process operations in order to provide low manufacturing costs. In order to reduce the number of masks, the etch through the entire capacitor stack should be completed with a single mask. In one process embodying the present invention, shown in

After bottom electrode 256 is formed, a high-k dielectric layer 258 is formed superjacent bottom electrode 256. In this illustrative embodiment of the present invention, high-k dielectric layer 258 is Ta2O5.
A top electrode 260 is then formed superjacent high-k dielectric layer 258. Top electrode 260 is typically formed by a deposition process in which a conductive barrier material such as, for example, TaN, TiN, or WN, is deposited over the surface. Such a barrier substantially or completely prevents both oxidation of the underlying copper, and diffusion of copper through the barrier and into the surrounding ILD during subsequent processing operations. It is preferable that the material that forms the top electrode not oxidize during a subsequent high temperature operation. Top electrode 260 may be formed from two or more layers of different materials to achieve the desired characteristics.
Bottom electrode 256, high-k dielectric layer 258, and top electrode 260, taken together, are referred to herein as a capacitor stack.
A photoresist layer 262 is then formed over top electrode 260 and patterned in accordance the design requirements of the particular integrated circuit in which it is being used. The present invention does not require that the capacitor be any particular shape. That is, the capacitor may be rectangular, polygonal, circular, or any other geometry. After the photoresist is patterned, the capacitor stack is etched, with the etch stopping on the underlying ILD 252 surface. In this way, one or more individual capacitor stacks are formed. Photoresist 262 is then chemically stripped using a resist strip which is inert with respect to Cu. An example of such a resist strip is XT1100 available from Ashland Specialty Chemical Company of Dublin, Ohio. The XT1100 is a photoresist stripper plus an N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone solvent.
In accordance with the present invention, a thin layer is then deposited over the surface of the wafer such that both the surface of ILD layer 252 and the exposed surfaces of the one or more capacitor stacks are covered. In this illustrative example, the thin layer is a silicon nitride (Si3N4) layer 264. This layer of silicon nitride 264 will subsequently act as an etch stop when vias are etched into an overlying layer of dielectric material.
After formation of nitride layer 264, an ILD layer 266 is formed over nitride layer 264. ILD 266 provides the physical and electrical separation between two levels of interconnect lines. Photoresist is deposited over ILD 266 and patterned to expose one or more regions of ILD 266 wherein via openings are to be formed. The exposed portions are then etched with the etch stopping on the underlying nitride layer 264. This via etch leaves portions of the etch stop layer exposed. Typically, via openings are formed over both the capacitor stacks and copper interconnect. After the via openings are formed, the ILD is patterned again to form the damascene trenches that will be used to form the overlying interconnect level. The exposed portions of the nitride etch stop layer are then etched, which exposes both the top electrode of the capacitor stack and portions of copper interconnect lines.
The next level of Cu interconnect lines and associated vias, are formed in accordance with a damascene metallization process. For example, a barrier layer 267 and seed layer are deposited over the patterned ILD top surfaces including the trench and via openings. Cu is then plated and the excess copper is removed typically by a chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process. Barrier layer 267 prevents the outdiffusion of copper into the surrounding dielectric material. Barrier layer 267 is typically, but not necessarily, a conductive material such as for example, tantalum or tantalum nitride. As shown in
In an alternative method in accordance with the invention, formation of a capacitor structure involves the use of an Al hardmask (512), as shown in

Subsequent to the formation of the bottom electrode, a high-k dielectric material is deposited over the bottom electrode (304). In this illustrative embodiment the high-k material is Ta2O5. Those skilled in the art and having the benefit of this disclosure will recognize that other high-k materials may be used.
A top electrode is then deposited over the high-k dielectric (306). The top electrode is preferably a material which will not oxidize during further process operations. It is also preferable that the top electrode be made of a material that prevents diffusion of Cu during further process operations. Materials including, but not limited to TaN, TiN, and WN may be used as the top electrode. The top electrode may be formed of one material that meets all the constraints above, or may be formed of two or more conductive materials that individually provide the required characteristics such preventing diffusion of Cu into the ILD, or diffusion of oxygen into the Cu. The bottom electrode layer, the high-k dielectric material layer, and the top electrode layer, are collectively referred to as the capacitor stack.
Photoresist is then applied over the top electrode and patterned in a conventional manner (308). The patterned photoresist protects a portion of the capacitor stack from a subsequent etch operation, while leaving another portion exposed to that subsequent etch operation.
An etch operation is then performed (310) through the capacitor stack, stopping on the underlying planarized Cu/ILD layer. That is, the exposed regions of the capacitor stack are removed, including those portions of the top electrode, high-k dielectric layer, and bottom electrode that are not protected by the patterned photoresist.
After etching the capacitor stack layers to form one or more individual capacitors, the photoresist is stripped (312). The removal of the resist is preferably accomplished with the use of a resist strip (a chemical solvent) that will not react in any significant way with the Cu interconnect metal. One such resist strip is XT1100 from Ashland Specialty Chemical Company of Dublin, Ohio. Subsequent to the resist strip operation, a thin layer of silicon nitride is formed (314) over the patterned capacitor stacks and the exposed portions of the intra-layer dielectric material. This silicon nitride layer will act as an etch stop when an overlying inter-layer dielectric is etched in order to form a connection to the top electrode of the capacitor stack. Other insulating materials may be used to form this etch stop layer as long as they provide a suitable level of selectivity with respect to the etching of the intra-layer dielectric.
An ILD material is deposited (316) over silicon nitride etch stop layer. The ILD may be formed of any suitable insulating material or combination of materials and structures, including but not limited to, silicon dioxide, carbon doped oxides of silicon, fluorine doped oxides of silicon, porous oxides of silicon, organic polymers, and the like.
The ILD material is then patterned (318), i.e., a photoresist layer is formed over the ILD, exposed, and developed, and the unprotected portions of the underlying ILD are then etched to provide openings in the ILD in alignment with the top capacitor electrodes and also to form conventional via openings to underlying interconnects. These openings may be referred to as contact openings or via openings. The end point of the ILD etch operation is achieved when the silicon nitride etch stop layer is exposed. Patterning of ILD material is well-known in this field, and is not described further herein.
The ILD material is then patterned again (320) to form damascene trenches in the ILD. The exposed portions of the silicon nitride etch stop layer are then etched (324) to expose the copper at the bottom of the via openings. Conventional steps of barrier and seed layer deposition, followed by copper electroplating (326) and removal of excess copper and barrier material by chemical mechanical polishing (328) may be used to complete the topmost layer of copper interconnect lines.
Referring to
A bottom electrode is deposited (402) over the planarized surface of a damascene interconnect level of a partially processed wafer. The planarized surface is more specifically comprised of metal interconnect lines and an intra-layer dielectric material each having a top surface in a common plane. The bottom electrode may be a layer of a single conductive material or a combination of several conductive materials. The requirements for the bottom electrode are that it be electrically conductive, that it substantially or completely prevent the oxidation of an underlying layer of copper, and that it substantially or completely prevents the migration of copper through itself such that copper reaches into surrounding layers of material. In one embodiment the bottom electrode is a two layer stack wherein the first layer is a layer superjacent the copper and may be TiN, TaN, or WN. The second layer is a layer superjacent the first layer and may be Pt, Ir, or Ru, which are materials that will not oxidize, or react with Ba or Sr, during the high temperature deposition of BST. In fact, Ru may act as a single layer electrode since it meets the requirements described above.
Subsequent to the formation of the bottom electrode layer, a high-k dielectric material is deposited (404) over the surface of the bottom electrode layer. In this example embodiment, the high-k material is BST. In the illustrative embodiment the BST layer is an amorphous film formed by a physical vapor deposition (PVD) at a temperature less than 420� C.
The top electrode layer is then deposited (406) over the high-k dielectric material. As with the bottom electrode, the top electrode layer is preferably characterized by material properties including electrical conductivity, resistance to oxidation during subsequent processing operations, and the ability to act as a barrier to the diffusion of Cu. Pt, Ir, and Ru, are examples of conductive materials that will resist oxidation during subsequent process operations. TiN, TaN, and WN are examples of conductive materials that can act as Cu diffusion barriers. The top electrode may be formed as a multi-layer structure so as to attain the required material properties, or characteristics. However, Ru, by itself, meets all of the requirements set forth above, and may therefor be used to form a single layer top electrode.
After formation of the top electrode layer, a hardmask layer is formed over the top electrode layer (408). In the illustrative embodiment of
A photoresist layer is then formed and patterned, i.e., exposed and developed, (410) so that portions of the W hardmask layer are exposed, while other portions of the W hardmask layer remain protected by the superjacent photoresist.
Using a fluorine based etchant, the exposed portions of the tungsten hardmask layer are etched (412). This etch operation exposes the top electrode layer which is subjacent to the hardmask layer. Subsequent to the fluorine based etch operation, the photoresist is removed by ashing (414). In this way, the photoresist is ashed without exposing the underlying Cu to an oxidizing atmosphere.
Using a chlorine based etch chemistry, the exposed portions of the top electrode layer are etched (416), the high-k dielectric material is etched (418), and the bottom electrode layer is etched (420). At this point, one or more capacitor stacks (depending on the specific circuit layout configuration called for in the design of any particular integrated circuit) have been formed.
A layer of silicon nitride is then formed over the surface of the wafer including over the top and sides of the capacitor stacks (422). This layer of silicon nitride acts as a barrier to any Cu diffusion, and also acts as an etch stop layer for subsequent processing operations.
After the etch stop layer is formed over the surface of the wafer and the top and side surfaces of the capacitor stacks, a ILD material is deposited (424) over the etch stop layer.
Conventional process operations may then be applied to form overlying layers of metal interconnect lines.
Embodiments of the present invention provide on-chip decoupling capacitor structures and methods of fabricating these on-chip decoupling capacitors. Decoupling capacitors help reduce or prevent L di/dt voltage droop on the power grid of integrated circuits during high surge current conditions. The inclusion of the decoupling capacitor on the die directly between the power grid greatly reduces the inductance, L, and thereby provides decoupling capability for higher frequency noise.
An advantage of embodiments of the present invention is that the high capacitance is achievable without increasing the footprint of the chip or its package.
A further advantage of embodiments of the present invention is that the number of discrete components required for a system is reduced.
A still further advantage of embodiments of the present invention is that the decoupling capacitor can be placed very close to the power and ground conductors of a chip thereby reducing parasitic inductance which tends to limit the high frequency performance of decoupling capacitors.
It should be noted that although the present invention is described in terms of a structure useful for the electrical function of decoupling, that capacitors in accordance with the present invention may be used for other circuit applications.
It will be understood that various other changes in the details, materials, and arrangements of the parts and operations which have been described and illustrated herein may be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the principles and scope of the invention as expressed in the subjoined claims.

"In helping others, we shall help ourselves, for whatever good we give out completes the circle and comes back to us." –Flora Edwards
I love to help people. I go beyond and out of my way to help when I think someone needs it. But early on, my mother tried to get me to understand that I shouldn't help when I'm not needed. I would always insist on "helping" her and it ended up causing her more trouble, haha. She'd sigh, roll her eyes and say, "Cherie, don't help me. Help the bear." To this day, I'm still not sure what that phrase means other than I shouldn't help someone that doesn't need or ask for it.
But what do you do when someone has specifically asked for your help, you give it, and he or she doesn't listen? Here, I'm particularly speaking about weight loss, healthy eating and maintaining a fit lifestyle. As I say in my disclaimer, I'm not a doctor, life coach or dietician. But I have made a significant, HUGE, 180 degree change in my life concerning my health. I don't smoke, I don't drink, I eat healthy, I work out and I've lost 60 pounds and am on a journey to lose the last 30. And, I have absolutely never felt better in my life. So, I fully understand why someone would look to me for advice. It's humbling and an honor that someone would inquire, seeing as how only 18 months ago, I was in sad shape and health.
Now, as I said, I do love to help. It's rewarding and it just plain feels good. But nothing burns me up faster, then when I spend time helping, explaining and coaching someone to her healthy path, only to find it littered with fast food wrappers, empty pizza boxes, and pure laziness. Seriously, how can someone beg for my help to get her where she needs to be on her weight loss journey, and after I spend precious time doing so, she blows it? It's oh-so-frustrating. And sad. Is there a proper way to do it? And again, I'm not a coach, so maybe that's why it's not working? But should I just sit there and be reticent when they ask for my help?
The saying goes that you can only help those who help themselves, but when it is time to stop helping? Should you ever give up? Or just keep standing by them while the only exercise they're getting is leaping off the wagon to go chase a food truck?

Thursday January 23, 2014: An all day Moon Void- of-course in Libra (until 4:43 pm EST) suggests that as you go about the business of the day and interact with others, that you contemplate the importance of socializing and small talk... of meeting new people face to face and chatting them up.
While it's called "small talk", your ability to embrace this form of communication is really a big deal when it comes to your personal and professional success.. and your overall happiness. So don't dismiss it as superficial and pointless, and believe that because it has no depth that it is not "real" conversation. Small talk is how you get to the point of having those deeper meaningful conversations.
Small talk is the doorway through which new people enter your life. That's huge when you think about it. Why? Because you never know who you're going to encounter. That person could be your future boss, your future best friend, or your future husband or wife. You simply never know when someone you meet will take your life in a new direction. And if you can't initiate these relationships with light banter, your circle of contacts and intimates will never expand past your current roster of friends. (How to Make Small Talk)
Don't be surprised if by late this afternoon you crave a deeper conversation, with someone you really know and trust. Someone close to you, who will listen and help you unravel a dilemma or solve some psychological conundrum.

During the year 2009, 134 reports of suspected adverse drug reactions (ADRs) to veterinary medicinal products (VMPs) were received (106 in the year 2008). The distribution according to species and drug classes remained in line with previous years. Companion animals were involved in most of the reports (46 % dogs, 19 % cats), followed by cattle or calves (22 %). Antiparasitic drugs made the biggest part with 30 % of the reports, followed by antiinfectives (19 %) and hormones (13 %). Some reactions following their use are specifically discussed. 95 additional enquiries about ADRs of VMPs were received by the Swiss Toxicological Information Centre in Zürich. Most of them concerned dogs or cats and antiparasitics or anti-inflammatory drugs. In the vaccinovigilance program, a total of 1020 reports were received, of which 1000 were related to the vaccination against blue tongue disease. The most frequently reported adverse reactions were aborts, mastitis or alterations of milk quality and they are specifically discussed.

LOS ANGELES—2011 AVN award-nominated director Zander last paired kittens with cougars in Teen Motherfuckers 2 for Vouyer Media, an all-female mash-up of the young girl and MILF genres that went on to garner praise from fans and critics.
Now, he's taking this approach to new heights in Busty Babysitters 2, a XXX romp through the lesbian, big boob and MILF genres that literally has something for everyone.
In the case of Busty Babysitters 2, it involves hooking up 2011's finest newcomers with some of the most exotic seasoned players on the scene.
The teen-on-MILF action features such mature ladies as Joslyn James, Puma Swede, Taylor Wane, India Summer and Tyler Faith. These seasoned females go down slow on newbies Tiffany Thompson, Haley Cummings, Tessa Taylor, Charity Bangs and Layla Rose.
Colorful wardrobe choices and inventive art direction provide the ideal compliments to each lesbian liaison, and the hardcore fun is brought to pristine life with 16x9 hi-def videography. Throw in an explosive bonus encounter starring April O'Neil and Eva Angelina and you've got over three hours of intense girl-on-girl action.
