This application is a division of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09/844,180, filed Apr. 27, 2001, now pending, which application is incorporated herein by reference in is entirety.
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention regards a structure for electrically connecting a first body of semiconductor material overlaid by a second body of semiconductor material, a composite structure using the electric connection structure and a manufacturing process.
2. Description of the Related Art
In particular, the invention can be used for electrically connecting a first silicon wafer incorporating electronic components to a second silicon wafer incorporating a micromechanical structure and/or to the outside. The invention can likewise be used for electrically connecting the first wafer to a third body carried by the second wafer, as well as for connecting the first wafer to the outside when the first wafer is covered by a protection structure, and thus is not directly accessible. An example of a particular application is represented by a micro-electromechanical system including a first wafer incorporating a circuit for controlling the parameters defining the state of a micro-electromechanical structure (for example, the position of a microactuator); a second wafer incorporating the micro-electromechanical structure; and a third wafer forming a cap for protecting the micro-electromechanical structure.
Various techniques are known for mechanically connecting two semiconductor material bodies (see, for example, Martin A. Schmidt, "Wafer-to-Wafer Bonding for Microstructure Formation", Proceedings of the IEEE, Vol. 86, No. 8, August 1998). However, such techniques do not enable two or three wafers to be electrically connected, in addition to be mechanically connected, or covered components of one of the wafers to be electrically accessed.
An embodiment of the present invention provides a connection structure that enables semiconductor material bodies made on different substrates to be overlaid and to be connected mechanically and electrically together and to the outside.
According to embodiments of the present invention, an electric connection structure, a composite structure, and a process for manufacturing a composite structure are provided. The electric connection structure connects a first silicon body to conductive regions provided on the surface of a second silicon body arranged on the first body. The electric connection structure includes at least one plug region of silicon, which extends through the second body; at least one insulation region laterally surrounding the plug region; and at least one conductive electromechanical connection region arranged between the first body and the second body, and in electrical contact with the plug region and with conductive regions of the first body. To form the plug region, trenches are dug in a first wafer and are filled, at least partially, with insulating material. The plug region is fixed to a metal region provided on a second wafer, by performing a low-temperature heat treatment which causes a chemical reaction between the metal and the silicon. The first wafer is thinned until the trenches and electrical connections are formed on the free face of the first wafer.
For a better understanding of the present invention, preferred embodiments thereof are now described, merely to provide non-limiting examples, with reference to the attached drawings, wherein:
FIGS. 1 and 2 are cross-sections through a semiconductor material wafer, in two successive manufacture steps, according to a first embodiment of the invention;

FIG. 17 shows a cross-section of a composite wafer, according to a fifth embodiment of the invention; and
FIGS. 18 and 19 show cross-sections of a composite wafer, according to a sixth embodiment of the invention, in two successive manufacture steps.
FIGS. 1-8 show a first embodiment of a process for manufacturing a micro-electromechanical system, including a control and sensing circuitry and a micro-electromechanical sensor, for example an acceleration sensor.
Initially, as illustrated in FIG. 1, a first wafer 1 of semiconductor material, typically P++ or N++ doped monocrystalline silicon, illustrated as sectioned along two parallel half-planes so as to show different areas in the left-hand half and in the right-hand half, is masked and etched to form first deep trenches 2 a. For example, the first wafer 1 may have a conductivity of between 5 and 15 mΩ/cm, preferably 10 mΩ/cm. As shown in FIG. 2, the first trenches 2 a have a closed shape and enclose monocrystalline silicon plug regions 3 intended to form through connections, as explained more clearly hereinafter.
Subsequently, the first trenches 2 a are filled, either completely or partially, with insulating material 6, for example silicon dioxide. To this end, a silicon dioxide layer is deposited or grown, and is subsequently removed from a first surface 7 of the first wafer 1, to obtain the structure shown in FIG. 2.
Next, as illustrated in FIG. 3, the first wafer 1 is bonded to a second wafer 10 formed of a monocrystalline silicon substrate 11 and an insulation and/or passivation layer 12. In particular, the substrate 11 houses conductive and/or insulating regions forming electronic components for biasing the acceleration sensor 8 and for detecting and processing electrical signals generated by the acceleration sensor 8. As an example, FIG. 3 shows conductive regions 15-16 of the N/P-type belonging to an electronic circuit 40, which is shown only schematically. In addition, the insulation and/or passivation layer 12 houses metal regions 13, 18, which terminate, at one or both of their ends, with pad regions 19 facing the surface 22 of the second wafer 10.
Connection regions 23 are provided on the surface 22 of the second wafer 10, on top of the pad regions 19, and are of a metal that is able to react at a low temperature with the silicon of the first wafer 1 to form a gold/silicon eutectic or a metallic silicide. Typically, the connection regions 23 are made of gold, in the case where the aim is to obtain a eutectic, or of a metal chosen from among the group comprising palladium, titanium, and nickel, in the case where the aim is to obtain a silicide. Bonding regions 24 are also provided on the surface 22 and are preferably formed at the same time as the connection regions 23.
For bonding the first wafer 1 to the second wafer 10, the first wafer 1 is turned upside down so that the first surface 7 of the first wafer 1 faces the second wafer 10. The plug regions 3 of the first wafer 1 are brought into contact with the connection regions 23 of the second wafer 10, and subsequently a heat treatment at low temperature, for example 350-450� C., is carried out for a period of 30-45 minutes, so that the metal of the connection regions 23 of the second wafer 10 react with the silicon of the plug regions 3 and form a metallic silicide which bonds the first and the second wafers 1, 10. Thereby, a double wafer 25 is obtained, as shown in FIG. 3.
Subsequently, as illustrated in FIG. 4, the first wafer 1 is thinned from the back mechanically, for example by grinding, preferably so as to obtain a thickness of 30-40 μm. The first wafer 1 then has a second surface 26 opposite to the first surface 7.
Next, as illustrated in FIG. 5, a metal layer, for example, an aluminum layer, is deposited and defined, so as to form metal regions 27 extending above the plug regions 3 and in direct electrical contact with the latter.
Subsequently, the first wafer 1 is masked and etched so as to form second trenches 2 b defining an acceleration sensor 8. In particular, as may be seen in FIGS. 6 and 7, the second trenches 2 b separate a mobile region, forming a rotor 4, and a fixed region, forming a stator 5, from the rest of the wafer 1 and from one another. The rotor 4 is connected, through elastic-connection regions, also referred to as springs 31, to fixed biasing regions 32, which are set in areas corresponding to respective connection regions 23, connected, through the metallic regions 13, to the plug regions 3.
Next, as illustrated in FIG. 8, a cap element 34 is fixed to the wafer 1 through adhesive regions 36, in a per se known manner, and then the double wafer 25 is cut into individual dice. Finally, the metal region 27 is contacted applying the usual wire-bonding technique.
Thereby, the connection regions 23 ensure mechanical connection between the monocrystalline silicon wafers 1 and 10 and electrical connection between the surface 22 of the second wafer 10 and the plug regions 3. In turn, the plug regions 3 allow the second wafer 10 to be contacted from above. In particular, some plug regions 3 enable the second wafer 10, not directly accessible from the front, to be connected to the outside, without requiring costly processes to be carried out from the back. In addition, as is shown in the left-hand half of FIG. 8, this solution also enables connection of regions formed in the first wafer 1 to the outside. Here the rotor 4 is connected to the outside through a first connection region 23 (beneath the biasing region 32), a metal region 13, a second connection region 23 (beneath the plug region 3), and the plug region 3. The plug regions 3 are insulated by insulation regions formed by the insulating material 6 and possibly by the air present in the first deep trenches 2 a, and are thus electrically insulated from the rest of the first wafer 1, except, obviously, for the regions connected to them via electric connection lines 30, shown in FIG. 10.
With the solution of FIGS. 1-8 a pressure sensor, instead of an acceleration sensor, may be formed.
FIGS. 9-11 show a second embodiment of the invention regarding a unit for micrometric regulation of the read/write head of a hard-disk driver. In detail, initially the same steps are carried out as described previously with reference to FIGS. 1-4. After thinning the first wafer 1, an oxide layer 35 is deposited and removed selectively at the plug regions 3 to form openings 28. The second trenches 2 b are then formed through the oxide layer 35 and through the wafer 1.
Subsequently, as illustrated in FIG. 10, an insulating layer 38 is deposited, for example a stick foil which does not enter the second trenches 2 b. The insulating layer is removed from above the openings 28, and metal connection regions are formed by depositing and defining a metal layer. In particular, in the illustrated example the metal layer fills the openings 28, where it forms contacts 29. In addition, an electric connection line 30 is formed and extends from the contact 29 arranged above the plug region 3 furthest to the right, up to above the rotor 4.
Subsequently, the composite wafer 25 is cut into dice, the insulating layer 38 is removed in oxygen plasma, and a ceramic body, referred to as slider 41, is bonded to the rotor 4 in a per se known manner (FIG. 11). The slider 41 carries a transducer 42 for data reading/writing on a hard disk (not shown). The transducer 42 is electrically contacted through connection regions 43, one of which may be seen in FIG. 11, which are formed directly on one side of the slider 41. Each connection region 43 extends from the transducer 42 as far as a pad 44 in electrical contact with an electric connection line 30.
Thereby, the plug region 3 furthest to the right enables electrical connection between the transducer 42 on the slider 41 and the electrical circuit 40, which can thus transmit to the transducer 42 the data to be written, or process the signal picked up by the transducer 42. In addition, in a known manner, the electrical circuit 40 controls movement of the rotor 4, and consequently of the slider 41. Finally, a connection via an intermediate plug region (not shown) enables connection of the electrical circuit 40 to the outside, in a way similar to that illustrated in the right-hand part of FIG. 8.
Consequently, also in this case the plug regions 3 enable connection of non-accessible regions of the second wafer 10 to elements arranged above them (here, the transducer 42), as well as to the outside.
FIG. 12 shows a third embodiment regarding the manufacture of circuits or structures to be kept in vacuum conditions. In the illustrated example, the wafer 1, after forming the plug regions 3 by digging the first trenches 2 a and filling them with insulating material 6, has been bonded to a second wafer 10, wherein a filter 48 has been previously made, for example of the band-pass type for high frequencies. The first wafer 1 is bonded to the second wafer 10, not only through the connection regions 23, but also through a sealing region 49 which extends between the first wafer 1 and the second wafer 10, and completely surrounds the area in which the filter 48 is formed, as well as the plug regions 3. The sealing region 49 is, for example, made using a low-melting temperature glass and has a closed shape. If bonding of the first wafer 1 and second wafer 10 is carried out in a low-pressure environment, the filter 48 remains vacuum encapsulated.
Next, the first wafer 1 is thinned as described above, and the double wafer 1, 10 is cut into dice 50. The dice 50 are then bonded to a third wafer 51 which houses a circuit 52 and which has previously been provided with connection regions 23 a similar to the connection regions 23. The thinned side of the first wafer 1 faces the third wafer 51, and the plug regions 3 must be aligned to the connection regions 23 a.
In this case, the first wafer 1, in addition to protecting and isolating the filter 48 from the outside environment and maintaining it in vacuum conditions, enables its electrical connection with the circuit 52 incorporated in the third wafer 51. In addition, it is possible to carry out electrical testing of the circuit 52 connected to the filter 48 at the wafer level (EWS—Electric Wafer Sort test).
FIGS. 13-16 show a fourth embodiment of the invention. According to FIG. 13, initially the first wafer 1 comprises a substrate 53 accommodating first trenches 72 a, and the first trenches 72 a are filled with insulating material 76 to insulate first plug portions 73, in a way similar to that described with reference to FIG. 1 for the plug regions 3. Then a sacrificial layer 54, for example of silicon dioxide, is deposited or grown, then is masked and etched so as to form openings 55 on top of the first plug portions 73 and in areas where anchorages with the structure on top are to be made, as described hereinafter.
Subsequently (FIG. 14), a polycrystalline silicon seed layer is deposited on top of the sacrificial layer 54 and in the openings 55, and then a polycrystalline silicon epitaxial layer 56 is grown. In this way, the epitaxial layer 56 is in direct contact with the substrate 53 at the openings 55. Next, inside the epitaxial layer 56 third and fourth trenches 60 a, 60 b are dug, which reach as far as the sacrificial layer 54. In particular, the third trenches 60 a delimit second plug portions 62 aligned vertically with the first plug portions 73 in the substrate 53, and the third trenches 60 a define a desired micromechanical structure (in the example illustrated, a microactuator 57 of the rotating type, including a rotor 58 and a stator 59, with the rotor 58 supported by springs, which are not illustrated).
Subsequently, in a known way, a part of the sacrificial layer 54 is removed through the fourth trenches 60 b. In particular, the sacrificial layer 54 is removed beneath the rotor 58 to form an air gap 63, and it substantially remains underneath the stator 59. The sacrificial layer 54 is removed only to a very small extent through the third trenches 60 a, given the different geometry (the micromechanical structure is formed by thin regions and/or perforated regions, allowing the sacrificial layer 54 to be substantially removed; this, instead, is not done through the third trenches 60 a).
In a way not shown, it is then possible to fill the third trenches, at least partially, with insulating material, in a way similar to that described for the first trenches 2 a of FIG. 1.
Subsequently, as illustrated in FIG. 15, the first wafer 1 is turned upside down and bonded to the second wafer 10, inside which components of the circuit 40 have already been formed, and on top of which the connection regions 23 have already been made. Also in this case, a low-temperature heat treatment is carried out to enable a chemical reaction between the silicon of the epitaxial layer 56, at the second plug portions 62, and the metal of the connection regions 23. Next, the substrate 53 of the first wafer 1 is thinned until the insulating material 76, or at least the bottom of the first trenches 72 a, is reached, an oxide layer 35 is deposited, the openings 28 are formed in the oxide layer 35, and then second trenches 72 b are made which separate fixed parts from mobile parts in the substrate 53.
Next, as has been described with reference to FIG. 10, an insulating layer, for example stick foil, is deposited and selectively removed, and the electrical contacts 29 and electric connection lines 30 are formed. In FIG. 16, an electric connection line 30 connects the portion of the substrate 53 to which the rotor 58 is anchored, for example at cap region 67, to the first plug region 73 that is furthest to the left, thus enabling electrical connection of the rotor 58 to the circuit 40 through the cap region 67, the first plug portion 73 on the left, and the second plug portion 62 on the left. Shown in the right-hand half of FIG. 16 is instead the electrical connection between the circuit 40 and the outside, through the second plug portion 62, the first plug region 73, and the connection region 23 on the right.
Subsequently, the insulating layer is removed, and a body to be moved, for example a slider similar to the slider 41 of FIG. 11, can be fixed to the cap region 67.
The solution shown in FIGS. 13-16 thus provides a micromechanical structure 57 protected by a cap, for example cap region 67, and easily connects the circuit 40 both to the micromechanical structure 57 and to the outside.
FIG. 17 shows a variation of the structure of FIG. 16, in which the rotor 58 is not anchored to the substrate 53, but is supported by springs (not shown) and biasing regions 60, similar to the biasing regions 31, 32 of FIG. 7. In addition, the cap region 67 is fixed and does not have the second trenches 72 b. The rotor 58 and stator 59 are connected via connection regions 23 and pad regions 19 to metallic regions 13, 18 formed in the second wafer 10. The metallic regions 13 are connected to the outside, as shown in the left-hand half of FIG. 17, via further connection regions 23 aligned with plug regions 62, 73 formed in the first wafer 1, in a way similar to that described with reference to FIGS. 13-16, and via contacts 29. In addition, the metallic regions 18 enable connection of the circuit 40 to the stator 59 and, via plug regions 62, 73 and contacts 29, to the outside, as shown in the right-hand half of FIG. 17. An insulating layer 80 covers the surface 26 of the first wafer 1.
FIGS. 18 and 19 show a sixth embodiment, in which a micromechanical structure, for example an acceleration sensor 8, is protected by a cap and electrically connected to the biasing and sensing circuit via plug regions.
Initially, as illustrated in FIG. 18, the first wafer comprises a substrate 53, which, in contrast to the previous embodiments, is not etched to form trenches. On the substrate 53, a sacrificial layer 54 is deposited and defined, and is removed only at openings 55. Next, a polycrystalline silicon seed layer is deposited, and the epitaxial layer 56 is grown, as described with reference to FIG. 14.
The epitaxial layer 56 is etched to form fifth trenches 65 a for delimiting second plug portions 64. Here, the fifth trenches 65 a are filled, either partially or completely, with insulating material 66, sixth trenches 65 b are formed for defining the accelerometric sensor 8, and the sacrificial layer 54 is partially removed through the sixth trenches 65 b, so as to free the rotor 58 of the acceleration sensor 8. As for the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1-8, the rotor 58 is carried by the fixed part via springs (not illustrated).
Subsequently, the first wafer 1 is bonded to the second wafer 10 using the connection regions 23 already formed on the surface 22 of the second wafer 10. Then the first wafer 1 is thinned by grinding until the desired thickness for the substrate 53. Next, the substrate 53 is selectively removed so as to form a cap region 67 of larger dimensions than the rotor 58, but of smaller dimensions than the chip housing the circuit 40, obtained after cutting the wafers 1, 10. In this way, the cap region 67 covers the rotor 58 from the back, protecting it mechanically, but leaves the plug regions 64 free.
Finally, the contacts 29 and the electric connection lines 30 are formed, which, in this embodiment, contact directly the silicon of the epitaxial layer 54. In particular, in the example illustrated in FIG. 19, an electric connection line 30 connects a region (not shown), arranged inside the fixed part and is electrically connected to the rotor 58, to the plug region 64 on the left, and thus to the circuit 40. A ball-and-wire connection on the right instead enables connection of the circuit 40 to the outside.
When the acceleration sensor 8 is to be kept at low pressure, for example to reduce friction with air during movement, a sealing region 49 may be provided which surrounds the area of the acceleration sensor 8, then the first wafer 1 may be bonded to the second wafer 10 in vacuum conditions, as already described with reference to FIG. 12.
The advantages of the process and structures described are evident from the above. In particular, they enable mechanical connection of two bodies of semiconductor material, in particular of monocrystalline silicon, arranged on one another, and at the same time the electrical connection of a structure or circuit formed in the underlying body, which is covered by the overlying body, to the outside or to a structure made in the overlying body; or else, they enable electrical connection of the underlying body to regions arranged above the overlying body, without requiring complicated and costly processes to be carried out from the back, without damaging the structures and circuits already made, and applying single manufacture steps that are commonly used in the manufacture of wafers of semiconductor material for forming micro-electromechanical structures.
The described solutions moreover make it possible, when necessary, to isolate preset areas of the underlying body and/or of the overlying body from the outside environment, for example to enclose delicate elements in a low-pressure environment, and/or to isolate and prevent contamination of these elements during manufacture, for example cutting semiconductor material wafers, during subsequent manipulation steps, and during use.
Finally, it is clear that numerous modifications and variations may be made to the connection structure, the composite structure, and to the manufacture process described and illustrated herein, all falling within the scope of the invention, as defined in the attached claims. In particular, the present connection structure may be used for a wide range of applications, both for the connection of electronic circuits integrated in two or more different substrates, and for the connection of micro-electromechanical structures of various kinds to biasing/control/sensing circuits associated to the micro-electromechanical structures. The present connection structure may be used for connecting a high number of substrates, according to the requirements and to general considerations of a mechanical/electrical nature.

Debut author Royce Prouty offers a spellbinding tale of history, folklore, destiny, and redemption.
Joseph Barkeley has a gift. Without the aid of chemical testing, he can accurately determine the authenticity and age of any document, seeing details within the fibers the way a composer picks out the individual notes of a symphony. But rarely does Joseph get a job this delicate and well-paying. A mystery buyer has hired him to authenticate the original draft of Bram Stoker's "Dracula."
When he travels to Transylvania to personally deliver the manuscript to the legendary Bran Castle, Barkeley, a Romanian orphan himself, soon realizes that his employer is the son of the infamous Vlad Dracula. Imprisoned in the castle and forced to serve the Master, Barkeley must quickly decipher cryptic messages hidden within Stoker's masterpiece to find the Master's long-lost bride or risk wearing out his welcome.
But as he delves into the history of Dracula and his own lineage, Barkeley discovers that his selection for this job was based on more than his talent with rare books. Now, he has a perilous decision to make save his life with a coward's flight, or wage a deadly battle with an ancient foe.

When Lt. Gen. Russell Honore led 20,000 federal troops into the city of New Orleans for search-and-rescue missions in the aftermath of the collapse of the federal levees following Hurricane Katrina, he instructed his soldiers not to let the contaminated water touch them.
Nine years later, Honore said, the risk of pollution to New Orleanians is coming not from the failures of the federal government, but from decisions made by leaders right here in the city and state — such as the plan to rebuild Booker T. Washington High School in Central City on top of heavily contaminated soil at the old Clio Street dump. State documents show that in some locations, cancer-causing compounds are present in levels more than 100 times what is considered acceptable.
"As we worked nine years ago to help save this city, we're going to work now to help save this city from itself," Honore said. "Because you know what? It's not the White House doing this. It's not President Bush doing this. It's the leaders in New Orleans doing this, and it's people we did not put in the office — the RSD."
Many alumni of Booker T. Washington, however, believe that the Recovery School District's plan for treating the contamination is sufficient, that Honore's concerns are an unnecessary excess of caution, and that it is time to move the long-delayed construction of a state-of-the-art school forward.

I recall just recently watching a collection of TV ads, which depicted PR stunts of people using obnoxious devices like a fake car crash, and a man in flames, to hand out leaflets.
http://adsoftheworld.com/media/ambient/kurkure_potato_chips_stuntman is cooler than this.
too many clothes for burning man =P
it looks plastic. is it poisoning the audience it has cleverly attracted?
How long does the stuntman go around between breaks?
Already done a year ago for a new club in Antwerp (Belgium) called "danscafe burn"
It was even on dutch television.
You can see it here:
or here:
its been done......try something new
Hmm, I'm sure it caused quite a stir at the event, but what a downer. "Hey, all you people who are having fun at this summer celebration, you could get debilitating burns by not being safe while BBQing!" A pamphlet or booth could have been enough to educate the visitors.

I have a new single release for 2015! "Hey Duckface" from my album "Country Fried Snake" and "Ice" which is my own backmasking, unmasked!

We finally got the new studio up and running. I recorded some new demos of songs for my next album. Awesome!
I'm so glad that we finally got the studio going after all the hard work we put into it. We worked for several months and now we finally have something we can be proud of.
For your information, here is the list of the new songs I recorded:
"Christine" (written by Bryan Harwell)
"Wake Up" (written by Phil Harwell)
"Listen To The Mockingbird" (written by Septimus Winner and Richard Milburn)
"Another End To Another Bend In The Road" (written by Bryan Harwell)
That's all for now. Keep listening!
Big news! My song "Average Joe" will be on the radio next week. It will be on WLRH 89.3 FM in Huntsville, Alabama. The show is The Invisible City. It will air at 7pm on Friday, February 28, 2014. It will repeat at 10pm on Saturday, March 1, 2014. Everybody make sure and tune in!
Behind the house where I grew up, there were two maple trees. Under and between those trees, my brother and I played for our entire childhoods. The swingset was under these trees. The picnic table was under these trees. The basketball goal was set up between these trees. One of these trees was one that had a low branch that I climbed all the time. Many good times were had under these trees.
I wanted to write a song about a tree. It was a challenge that I had given myself as a songwriter. When I thought of the trees at my childhood home, the song practically wrote itself.
This song is about childhood memories, growing up, and growing old. All of these are things that everyone goes through. I hope you can relate.
On this song, you will hear two guitars, harmonica, and vocals. All performed by yours truly. Enjoy!

Editor's Note

A.A.S. Degree in Radiologic Technology
Radiologic Technologists, also called Radiographers, is the third largest category of health care professionals, surpassed in number only by physicians and nurses. Radiographers apply ionizing radiation to demonstrate portions of the human body — on a radiograph, fluoroscopic screen, or other imaging screen — to assist physicians in diagnosis of disease and injury. They work in hospitals, clinics, private practice, and more.
An essential member of the healthcare team, the radiographer positions body parts accurately and manipulates radiographic equipment to produce a quality diagnostic image while using the least amount of radiation necessary to get the best possible image.
Radiographers have a variety of career options open to them; most enter the profession taking x-rays and some move into specialized areas as Computed Tomography (CT), Angiography, Mammography and others. They have the opportunity to work with a variety of technologies and connect one-on-one with patients.
The Associate in Applied Science degree program in Radiologic Technology prepares students to apply to take the ARRT Registry examination in Radiography offered by the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists ( www.arrt.org ).
Graduates who pass the ARRT examination are then eligible to apply for a New York State Department of Health License to practice Radiologic Technology (https://www.health.ny.gov/professionals/doctors/radiological/).
The Radiologic Technology program is dedicated to providing each student with the educational activities necessary to develop the required critical thinking and technical and interpersonal skills of the radiographer.
The Radiologic Technology Program, as well as the field of Radiologic Technology, is a rigorous one. Program standards are not altered for disabled students. The college will make every effort to provide reasonable accommodations to students with disabling conditions. In order to successfully complete the Radiologic Technology Program, with speed and accuracy, the student must be able to:
- place the patient in position, set the controls of the x-ray machine, and evaluate the quality of the radiographic image.
- provide patient instructions and respond to questions and requests in both routine and emergency situations
- transport and assist the patient, and to move the x-ray machine and film to the desired position, including operation of equipment in the surgical suite and at the patient's bedside.
Pre-Admission Seminar
Students applying to the Radiologic Technology program are required to attend one Pre-Admission Seminar prior to the application deadline (February 1st). This seminar is an important and informative time when a Radiologic Technology instructor will describe the Radiologic Technology Program and an Admissions specialist will describe the admissions process. In addition, you will have an opportunity to ask questions about the Radiologic Technology Program.
Failure to attend a seminar in its entirety will forfeit one's application for admission consideration. Please note that the seminar could take up to two hours so plan accordingly. Please arrive at least 15 minutes prior to the start of the seminar. Late arrivals cannot be accommodated. There is no RSVP required to attend.
Please check back here in the fall semester for the dates and times of the Radiologic Technology Pre-Admission Seminars for the next academic year.

School rules important life lessons for students
Published: Sunday, May 19, 2002 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, May 18, 2002 at 11:00 p.m.
School rules are made to help students learn that anywhere you go and anything you want to do will have rules to follow and these are made to benefit students.
Come on, people, do students look better with their rears and underwear showing, or with a belt to hold their pants up?
If parents taught children to follow rules at home early in life, they (and the schools) would have no problems today. When students are older and begin work on any job, there will be rules to follow. Their employer will not give them four chances. They will soon be fired. Think about this.
A little discipline goes a long way and it makes for a better person.
It is a disgrace the way "students raise their parents" today. The children tell parents what to do or not do and sometimes what to say. This needs to change; otherwise there will be a greater need for juvenile jails than for adult jails.
I can't feel sorry for parents who lose their child because they did not discipline and their child gets into trouble. Parents should try harder for the sake of their children's future.
Better they cry now than the parent cry later.

Critics say too many systems are collecting data on disease outbreaks with little coordination among them
CDC expands flu-tracking efforts
About 300 systems at federal, state and local agencies monitor disease outbreaks and chemical exposure. Some critics say that multiplicity is a problem.
Serena Vinter, a senior research associate at the Trust for America's Health, a nonprofit public health organization, said having so many monitoring systems results in a murky rather than crystal-clear picture.
"There are too many disease surveillance systems, and they do not necessarily communicate with each other," Vinter said. "It is hard to get a good picture."
Others say the organizations in charge of alerting the public are often slow to act. Veratect, a company that tracks disease outbreaks, said it had sounded the alarm about the swine flu outbreak in Mexico March 30, but several weeks passed before the World Health Organization and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention began widely publicizing the illness.
Furthermore, much of the disease tracking for public health purposes occurs at the state and local levels. Officials are trying to upgrade their systems during a time of budget cuts for lab testing and epidemiologists.
CDC's role has been to work with states to aggregate and analyze data via a number of reporting networks. For example, CDC conducts flu surveillance every year from October to May, when it gathers data from 150 laboratories, 3,000 outpatient care sites, and 56 state and territorial health departments. The data is reported weekly on CDC's Web site.

As experts warned of the "dire" threats posed by outdated federal technology, lawmakers grilled top feds, debated workforce issues and inched closer to backing a $3.1 billion fix-it fund.
The agency is making strides in developing and deploying border technologies but still has some weaknesses.

News 12 at 11 o'clock / Saturday, May 4, 2013
GRANITEVILLE, S.C. (WRDW) -- It's a disaster no one in the small town of Graniteville likes to remember.
But Louisiana Sanders says she remembers it like it was yesterday.
"I got a phone call from my daughter, telling me to look at the news on television," she told News 12.
She was watching coverage of the disaster as it unfolded, and much of what she saw looked like it was right out of a movie.
The trains were carrying chlorine gas, causing long-term health problems for people even lived miles away from where the trains cars collided.
"They were passing oxygen masks to them," Sanders said.
And ever since, investigators are studying just how big that impact was.
"To find out what the needs were, what health problems the community was having as well as economic problems," she said.
The program, Healthy You, Healthy Graniteville, is all about community health.
"We have someone here from DHEC to be kind of be responsive to what the needs are in the community," said Lucy Annang, who works with the program.
And even though it's been eight years, she knows things won't get back to normal anytime soon.
"What we find is that people are still continuing to be devastated by the economic decline, things like the decline in the physical environment and even some mental health or what some might call PTS," Annang said.
But despite all of those issues, she says people still want to see the community improve.
Because at the end of the day, Graniteville is still home.

Human renin biosynthesis and secretion in normal and ischemic kidneys.
Department of Medicine, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, MA 02115.
The pathway of renin biosynthesis and secretion in normal and ischemic human kidneys has been investigated by pulse-labeling experiments. The results indicate that in normal human kidney, preprorenin is rapidly processed to 47-kDa prorenin. Microradiosequencing showed that this molecule was generated by cleavage between Gly-23 and Leu-24, yielding a 43-amino acid proregion. Analysis of prorenin secreted by the kidney tissue yielded an identical sequence, indicating that prorenin is secreted without any further proteolysis. An examination of the kinetics of processing and secretion suggested that a majority of the newly synthesized prorenin is quickly secreted, while only a small fraction is processed intracellularly to the mature renin. The differences in secretion kinetics between prorenin and mature renin and the selective inhibition of prorenin secretion by monensin suggest that they are secreted independently via two pathways: a constitutive pathway probably from the Golgi or protogranules that rapidly release prorenin and a regulated pathway that secretes mature renin from the mature granules. A comparison of the kinetics of processing between normal and ischemic tissues suggests that renal ischemia leads to an overall increase in the rate of processing of prorenin to mature renin. In addition, prolonged biosynthetic labeling of renin in the ischemic kidney yielded two smaller molecular weight immunoreactive forms suggestive of renin fragments that may be degradative products. These fragments were not detected in normal kidney tissue labeled for similar lengths of time.

Valley homeless shelter sees all walks of life
While some would associate a homeless shelter with housing panhandlers, that is not the case at one Valley shelter.
"We see a diversity of people," said Irene Agustin with the Central Arizona Shelter Service. "Most people are aware of the homeless on the street, in terms of people asking for money, begging for things, but that's less than 20 percent of the population. The people that we see have become homeless because of the economy."
Agustin said 80 percent of the people in the shelter likely lost their home, job or both and are trying to get back on their feet and came to the shelter looking for help.
"It's really on them. We just help direct them in the right way, but they're the ones going in for their job interviews and going to their appointments," she said.
Agustin said the average length of stay in their adult shelter is 42 days, but they allow a maximum of 180 days. The average family stays for 52 days, but are allowed to stay for 90.
"Some people are really motivated," she said. "They only need a week's stay and get out there and we never hear from them again because they don't need the shelter anymore."
Agustin said the shelter's goal is to get people out as quickly as possible so a complicated situation doesn't have time to get worse.

The iconoclastic David Mamet is thinking a lot about both hot-button topics in "Race," his provocative play exploring the dynamic between three lawyers — two black and one white — as they wrestle with their latest case, involving a rich, older white man accused of raping a young black woman. »Read Full Article

Many anglers, especially those who seek game fish such as black bass, trout or striped bass, release their catch.

I've diagnosed the heck out of this issue - the Import form is simply not posting to "admin.php?import=wordpress&step=1"
If the call to the function wp_import_upload_form is changed to be any other URL, the form will post to it, however, posting to Step1 fails. Not only does it fail, it simply does nothing- no function is instantiated, no PHP process is spun up (monitored via Top), just NOTHING.
I've put breaks on the admin.php in sections and returned the step in Import functions requirement checks, etc., and that all checks out. It's as if SOMETHING is taking the Post request and killing it - it's not even making it to request the URL - just spins the browser request - and the "dispatch" function is not hit again to determine what step you are on.
I've done the usual diligence - turned off all plugins, etc...no dice.
Anyone have an ideas?

I wish a knew, but that's part of the problem, it's hard to find any news on Nintendo other then some random blogs or biased article. It can tank 4% in one day and nobody really seems to know why, it's very frustrating. So far I haven't seen the Japanese currency's value have any positive effect on this stock. Like I said before, this stock trickles up here and there, and then any gains over a span of time get wiped out and then some in one single day for no apparent reason.

How have the biosphere, lithosphere, and hydrosphere interacted through time and space to drive the long-term evolution of the integrated Earth system?
This overarching question motivates most of my research. Specifically, the Macrostrat research group is involved in quantifying the spatial and temporal distribution of rocks, sediments, fossils, and geochemical proxy records at multiple different spatial and temporal scales, from daily growth bands in organisms, to regional patterns of sedimentation tracked over tens of millions of years, to the 3.8 billion year record in the upper crust of an entire continent. The goal: to better describe the history of Earth systems, to develop and test hypotheses for what has controlled that history, and to build empirically constrained forward models of biological and physical environmental change over time.
Synthesis of fundamental stratigraphic and paleobiological data is critical to addressing many important questions, ranging from the global trajectory of biodiversity to long-term carbon cycling. I am involved in several relevant database and database building initiatives:

The UT Men's Chorus is currently on hiatus. Stay tuned for future activities!
The Men's Chorus was established in 1998 to provide the opportunity for male singers from across the UT campus to share the joy of singing together. The group performs a wide variety of musical styles, including classical, folksongs, spirituals, and traditional glee club repertoire. The pursuit of musical excellence is combined with a dynamic social experience and service to the UT community. The Men's Chorus performs a joint concert each semester with the UT Women's Chorus, participates in the annual Texas Choral Holiday Concert and Songs of the Season, and joins the other UT choirs for special concerts. Around campus, the Men's Chorus performs informally, such as singing the National Anthem at UT Men's Basketball games and singing on the West Mall.
