The present invention is directed to a method and apparatus for plating lead frames used in fabricating integrated circuit devices and the like. In the fabrication of solid state devices, the lead frames are oftentimes heated when bonding a chip to the die-attach pad to form a gold-silicon eutechtic. When a lead frame is heated, the heat, depending on the metal used, oxidizes the metal. To avoid the effects of oxidation of the metal, and, in particular, to avoid the creation of an electrically insulating oxide on the metal surfaces, in the area of electrical contacts, it has been the practice to plate the electrical contact areas of the lead frames with gold or silver or like metal.
Initially, to have good electrical contact surfaces and form a gold-silicon eutectic, an entire lead frame or at least the entire surface of one side of the lead frame, in particular the side on which the semiconductor chip is bonded, was plated with gold. There was no selective masking of any parts of the frame. This type of plating used a great amount of gold.
Later, to conserve gold and thus reduce costs, as the cost of gold increased, the entire surface of the frame on the side on which the chip is attached was plated with silver and the use of gold was restricted in that it was selectively bonded to the die-attach pad alone in a two-step process.
In a still further development, the practice was to selectively restrict the plating of gold to the die-attach pad and to the lead tips so as to also conserve silver and gold.
In summary, in accordance with the prior described practices, lead frames have been provided with a gold-plated die-attach pad for forming the required gold-silicone eutectic and a silver or gold plated lead tip area free of oxidation created during fabrication for providing good electrical contacts.
With the still ever increasing cost of gold, however, the amount of gold used in plating each lead frame becomes an appreciable percentage of its cost and is, if unnecessary, a needless waste of an important natural resource.
It would seem a simple matter to plate the lead tips and die-attach area with silver and, thereafter, to plate the die-attach area with gold in a two-step process. However, it is found that when gold is plated over silver, the gold combines with the silver to the extent that as much as 66% more gold is required for forming a suitable gold-silicon eutectic than is required in the absence of silver as substrate plating.
In view of the foregoing, the principal objects of the present invention are a selectively plated lead frame, and an apparatus for and method of plating the same.
In accordance with the above objects, there is provided a novel plating apparatus comprising three plating stations arranged in a series fashion. In the first station, a means is provided for plating a gold strike or copper on the area of a lead frame consisting of the die-attach pad and tips of the leads. In the second station, a means is provided for plating a gold finish on the die-attach pad. In the third station, a means is provided for masking the die-attach pad plated in the second station and for plating silver on the tips of the leads surrounding the masked die-attach pad.
The stations are arranged in a series fashion so that a continuous strip or series of lead frames may be sequenced in a step-like fashion through the stations such that the plating performed in each station is carried out simultaneously.
In general, the means provided in each station for plating the lead frames comprises a plurality of fluid jets, means associated with each of the jets for masking the lead frames so as to restrict the flow of plating fluid to selected areas of the lead frames and means for causing a current to flow between the plating fluid and the lead frame so as to remove the metal from the fluid and deposit it on the frames.
By plating the lead frames with the apparatus described in the manner described, the plating is performed quickly and efficiently and, because gold is not plated over silver on the die-attach pad, there is a significant saving in money and a valuable natural resource.
The above and other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from a reading of the following detailed description and the accompanying drawings in which:

Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, there is shown a section of a representative lead frame strip 1 comprising a plurality of lead frame sections 2, 3, 4 and 5. All of the sections 2, 3, 4 and 5, each one of which is shown between a pair of parallel dashed lines, are identical and are fabricated and processed together with other sections in coils typically comprising thousands of such sections. The sections, or lead frames as they are sometimes referred to herein, are supported together for this purpose by a pair of relatively wide margins 6 and 7. In margins 6 and 7 there is provided a plurality of sprocket holes 8. Holes 8 are used for advancing the strip 1 through various stages of fabrication and processing, including the step-like plating processing described herein.
As seen more clearly in FIG. 2, in which there is shown an enlarged view of section 3 of the strip 1 of FIG. 1, there is provided in each of the sections 2-5, a plurality of elongated, generally L-shaped leads 10. Each of the leads 10 is terminated at its interior end by a relatively narrow tip portion 11. Extending from the tip portion 11 is an exterior portion 12. The end of portion 12 is joined to an adjacent section -- e.g., section 2 or 4 -- by a portion of the lead having a reduced cross-section. Between adjacent leads 10 and between the leads 10 and margins 6 and 7, there are also provided supporting strips or wires 13. The wires 13 are employed to support the leads until they are embodied in a finished device, at which time they are cut away to separate the leads. In the center of each of the sections 2-5 there is provided a die-attach pad 20. Pad 20 is supported between the margins 6 and 7 by a pair of wire supporting members 21. In subsequent processing of the strip 1, when individual integrated circuit devices are being made, the supporting members 21 and margins 6 and 7, like wires 13, are also cut away and the sections 2-5 are separated. Those processing steps, however, form no part of the present invention and, therefore, are not further described.
As shown in FIG. 2, there is identified an area enclosed by a rectangular dashed line 30. Line 30 identifies the area, including the pad 20 and the tip portion of the ends of the leads 10. Dashed line 30 represents the exterior boundary of the areas plated in accordance with the present invention.
Referring to FIGS. 3A, 3B and 3C, there are shown three rectangular areas 40. Each of the areas 40 corresponds to the area of the lead frame section 3 bounded by the dashed line 30 in FIG. 2. In the interior of each of the areas 40 there is shown a smaller rectangular area 41. Each of the areas 41 corresponds to the area of the die-attach pad 20 in FIG. 2.
As will become apparent, plating according to the present invention is in a sequence of three steps. In the first step, as represented in FIG. 3A, the areas of the lead frame section corresponding to the areas 40 and 41 are plated with a gold or copper strike, as shown by the diagonal lines extending across both of the areas. In the second step, as represented in FIG. 3B, the area 40 outside of the area 41 is masked and the area 41 is plated with a gold finish. In the third step, as represented in FIG. 3C, the area 41 is masked and the area 40 outside of the area 41 is plated with silver.
While the selective plating of the areas 40 and 41 with gold and silver as described is important in the present invention, it is to be understood and is contemplated that in certain applications, metals other than gold and silver may be employed and that, once understood, the sequence of the steps herein described can readily be interchanged in specific applications. In this regard, however, it is important to recall that the sequence as outlined herein for plating gold on the die-attach pad and silver on the lead tips should be followed if the use of excessive gold, caused by the large amount of gold which combines with silver as previously described, is to be avoided.
Referring to FIG. 4, there is provided three plating stations 50, 51 and 52. The exterior appearance of each of the stations 50, 51 and 52 is quite similar. The interior components of each, however, are specially constructed for performing, respectively, the first, second and third plating steps described above. Before describing each of the stations in particular, however, it may be helpful to describe a few of the common features.
As shown in FIG. 4, the strip 1 is fed typically from a coil into one end of the station 50. After passing through station 50 in the direction of the arrow to the right of station 50, it enters station 51. After passing through station 51, the strip 1 passes through station 52. Thereafter the strip may be coiled or further processed. The movement of the strip 1 through the stations 50, 51 and 52 is provided by a step or sequencing dirve motor assembly of conventional construction (not shown) which is adapted for transporting the strip 1 very accurately by means of a sprocket which engages the sprocket holes 8. Other means, of course, may be used. The amount or distance strip 1 is transported during each sequencing step depends on the length of the individual stations 50-52. More precisely, if the stations 50-52 plate simultaneously, 10 sections of the strip 1 during each sequence, then the transporting motor assembly will transport strip 1 a distance corresponding to the length of 10 frame sections during each sequence or step.
Immediately to the right of station 50 and in sliding contact with strip 1 is a sliding contact 53. Contact 53 is coupled in any suitable manner to the negative pole of a d.c. potential source. Since strip 1 is continuous throughout the stations 50-52, contact 53 serves as the cathode electrode for each of the stations. While only a single cathode electrode is illustrated, it is intended that a plurality of such electrodes may be employed to reduce or in other respects modify and control current distribution in the strip 1.
The plating fluid employed in each of the stations 50-52 is recirculated through the stations. To capture the spent fluid, there is provided for the stations 50-52, a plurality of fluid containers 54, 55 and 56, respectively. Coupled to each of the containers 54-56 is a fluid pump 59. Pump 59 is provided for pumping fluid from the containers 54-56 through a pair of pipes 57 and 58 back through the stations. In a typical embodiment, this is most easily achieved by supporting each of the stations inside its respective container as shown. Having been described generally, the stations 50-52, beginning with station 50, will now each be described in detail.
Referring to FIGS. 5-12, there is provided in station 50, a head member 61. The head member 61, as are all of the non-electrical parts of the stations which come in contact with the plating fluid, is made of a plastic or other non-metallic material which is compatible with the plating fluid. In the base of head member 61, there is provided a fluid manifold 62. Manifold 62 may consist of an enlarged fluid passageway which may be provided in the member 61 as by drilling. Extending from the manifold 62 is a plurality of fluid jets 63. Each of the jets 63 comprises a tubular member 64 which extends upwardly in the centerr of a chamber 65 and is provided with a fluid passageway 66. Passageway 66 extends through the center of the member 64 and is provided to be in fluid communication with the manifold 62. Extending from each of the chambers 65 is a fluid discharge port or outlet 67. In the top surface of the head member 61 is a pair of mask-aligning channels 68. Also in the top surface of the head member 61 and in a slot of its own, is a wire or the like 69. Wire 69 is provided to extend over the open end of the passageway 66 in each of the jets 63 and is adapted for coupling to the positive pole of the d.c. source which is coupled to the cathode electrode 53.
Referring to FIGS. 8 and 9, there is provided a masking member 70. In the under-surface of masking member 70 there is provided a pair of parallel ribs 71. Ribs 71 are adapted to fit in the slots 68 in the top of member 61 to facilitate aligning the member 70 longitudinally on the member 61 and prevent its lateral displacement with respect thereto. The longitudinal displacement of the member 70 is restricted by a back-up member 80 described below. Intermediate the ribs 71 is a plurality of rectangular apertures 72. The size of each of the apertures 72 corresponds to the areas 40 described above with respect to FIGS. 3A, 3B and 3C and the area bounded by the dash lines 30 in FIG. 2. The position of the apertures 72 in the masking member 70 is such that each one of the apertures is provided to be in registration with one of the passageways 66 in one of the jets 63 in member 61 when the member 70 is inserted and aligned longitudinally in the slots 68. At opposite ends of the masking member 70, there is also provided a plurality of guiding members 85. Members 85 are provided for engaging the sides of the strip 1 and aligning it laterally with respect to the apertures 72 such that the areas 40 on the strip are precisely over the apertures at the time of plating. The material of which the member 70 is made is such as to form a fluid-tight seal with the strip 1 at the edges of the area 40.
Referring to FIGS. 9 and 10, there is shown the backup plate or member 80. In the underside of member 80 there is provided a recessed portion in which is mounted an inflatable bladder 81. Coupled to bladder 81 is an air hose fitting 82. Fitting 82 is provided for coupling the bladder 81 to a source of air under pressure. Along each side of the member 80 and extending outwardly therefrom there is provided a plurality of relatively short pin-like members or the like 83. Similarly, along each side of the head member 61 and extending outwardly therefrom there is provided a corresponding number of relatively short pin-like members or the like 84. Pin members 83 and 84 are provided for receiving elastic members, such as rubber bands or the like (not shown) for securing the back-up members 80 and the masking member 70 securely to the top of the head member 61.
In use, the masking member 70 is positioned between the back-up member 80 and the head member 61. With the bladder 81 initially deflated, the strip 1 is inserted between the members 70 and 80 and aligned by means of the guide members 85 over the apertures 72. When the strip 1 is thus positioned, the bladder 81 is inflated for sealing the backside of the strip and each of the areas 40 in each of the lead frame sections described with respect to FIG. 3A, is exposed to a flow of plating fluid from one of the jet fluid passageways 66. The wire 69 is then coupled, as by a switch (not shown), to the positive pole of the d.c. source coupled to the cathode electrode 53. When the wire 69 is connected to the d.c. source, a current will flow in the fluid between the jet 63 and the strip 1. This will cause a metal, such as gold, in the fluid, to plate out and adhere to the exposed surface of the strip -- in this case, the area 40. After a predetermined period of time, the current flow is terminated and the bladder 81 is deflated. At all times during the flow of fluid from the jet 63, spent fluid from the strip 1 will fall into the chamber 63 and be discharged freely through the discharge outlet 67 and into the container 54 for recirculation by the pump 55 through the station.
It may be noted, at this point, that the recirculation through the stations 50-52 need not be interrupted during sequencing of the strip 1 from one station to another. This is because plating will occur only when there is a completed electrical path between the d.c. potential source, the fluid and the strip. Thus, after deflation of the bladder 81, the section of strip 1 plated in station 50 is free to be moved longitudinally to the next station, station 51, without interrupting the flow of fluid in the station. This reduces the need for certain valves, simplifies controls and results in significant economies.
Referring to FIGS. 13-17, there is provided in station 51, a head member 90 for coupling to the pump 59. In member 90 and extending substantially for the length thereof, there is provided a fluid manifold 91. Extending upwardly from manifold 91 and centrally located in a chamber 92, is a plurality of tubular members 93. Each of the tubular members 93 is provided with a central passageway in which is fitted a metallic tubular member 94. Member 94 is provided with a tapered end portion 95 and a flared or rolled lower end portion 96. End 95 is provided for forming a nozzle or nozzle outlet. Rolled end 96 is formed in the vicinity of the manifold 91 for making electrical contact with a pair of wires 97. Wires 97 are provided for coupling to the positive pole of a d.c. source having its negaitve pole coupled to the contact 53. It may be noted at this point that, by using the metallic nozzle 94 connected to the wires 97, there is avoided the placement of an interfering member in the fluid flow from the nozzle. Extending from the lower end of each of the chambers 92 and through the side of member 90, is a discharge port or outlet 98. Outlet 98 is provided for freely discharging spent fluid into the container 55. In the top surface of member 90 is a pair of longitudinal slots 99 for aligning a masking member 101.
Slots 99 are provided for receiving a corresponding pair of ribs 100 in the masking member 101. As with the ribs 71 in FIG. 8, ribs 100 are provided on the underside of the masking member 101 for aligning the masking member laterally on the head member 90. Between the ribs 100 in member 101 and extending through the member 101 is a plurality of rectangularly-shaped apertures 102. Each of the apertures 102 is provided to be placed in registration with one of the nozzles 94 when the masking member 101 is fitted on the member 90. The size of each of the apertures corresponds to the size of the die-attach pad 20 and the area designated 41 in FIGS. 3A, 3B and 3C. On opposite ends of the member 101 there is a plurality of guide members 103. Members 103 are provided for aligning the strip 1 laterally with respect to the apertures 102.
The material used to make the member 101 is such as to be able to form a fluid-tight seal with the strip 1 around the die-attach pad so as to restrict the fluid from the nozzle 95 to the die-attach pad area.
In FIG. 17, there is shown a back-up member 105 with n an air input nozzle 106. Member 105 is provided with an inflatable bladder (not shown). Along opposite sides of member 105 is a plurality of pins 107. Corresponding pins 108 are provided on the sides of the head member 90. Rubber bands or the like (not shown) are employed for coupling to the pins 107 and 108 for securing the member 105 securely to the head member 90 with the masking member 101 fitted between the two. As described with respect to the member 80 of FIG. 9, member 105 is provided for providing, when its bladder is inflated, a fluid-tight seal on the upper surface of the strip 1. The fluid-tight seal is provided for preventing loss of plating fluid through the lead frame as well as to immobilize the strip 1 during plating of the die-attach pad area.
In use, station 51 is operated in substantially the same fashion as station 50 with respect to the positioning and aligning of the strip 1 in the station, the inflation of the baldder of the back-up member 105, the coupling of the wires 97 to a source of potential and the discharge of fluid through outlets 98.
Referring to FIGS. 18-22, there is provided in station 52, a plating head member 110. In the top of member 110 there is provided a plurality of pairs of associated input and output chambers 111 and 120. Each of the chambers 111 and 120 is separated by an intermediate fluid-tight wall-like member 121. In each of the chambers 111 there is provided a pair of fluid passageways 112 and 113. Passageways 112 and 113 are provided in fluid communication with a fluid manifold (not shown) in the base of member 110 below the chambers 111. Fluid is provided to the manifold under pressure by the pump 55 which is coupled to the fluid manifold input port 114. In fluid communication with each of the chambers 120 and extending through the side of the member 110 is a fluid discharge outlet 115. Outlet 115 is provided for freely discharging fluid from the chambers 111 and 120 into the container 54.
In the center of each of the wall members 121 and extending upwardly therefrom is a rectangularly-shaped pedestal 122 for supporting a masking member 123, such as a pad of silicone rubber. Masking member 123 has a size at least equal to the area of the die-attach pad 20 of the strip 1 for masking the die-attach pad area.
On opposite sides of the wall member 121 and extending across the mouth or top of chambers 111 and 120 there is provided a pair of wires 125 and 126. Wires 125 and 126 extend substantially for the full length of the head member 110 and are provided for coupling to the positive pole of a d.c. potential source having its negative pole coupled to the sliding contact 53.
Referring to FIG. 21, there is provided a masking member 130. In the center of member 130, there is provided a plurality of rectangularly-shaped apertures 131. The edges of the apertures 131 correspond to the exterior edges of the areas 40 in FIGS. 3A, 3B and 3C. Extending from the underside of member 130 on opposite sides of apertures 131 is a pair of parallel rib members 132. Rib members 132 are provided for fitting in a corresponding pair of slots 133 in the upper surface of member 110. At opposite ends of the member 130, is a plurality of guide members 134. Members 134, like members 85 and 103, are provided for guiding the strip 1 and aligning it laterally with respect to the apertures 131.
Referring to FIG. 22, there is provided a back-up member 140. Member 140 is identical to members 80 and 105 of FIGS. 10 and 17, respectively.
In the sides of member 140 and head member 110, for example, there is provided a plurality of pins 141 and 142. Pins 141 and 142 secure, as by rubber bands and the like (not shown), the member 140 to the head member 110. Also, member 140 is fitted with an inflatable bladder (not shown) which is operable for sealing the upper surface of the strip 1 as previously described with respect to members 80 and 105.
In use, after the strip 1 is positioned in the station 52, as described with respect to stations 50 and 51, with the masking member 123 securely masking the die-attach pad 20, plating fluid will flow over the surrounding lead tips. The path of fluid flow is from the fluid passageways 112 and 113 into the chamber 111. Once the chamber 111 is filled, the fluid flows over the top of the wall 121, against the strip 1, down into the chamber 120 from which it is discharged into the container 56 through the outlet 115. With the wires 125 and 126 coupled as by a switch (not shown) to the positive pole of a d.c. potential source coupled to the cathode electrode 53, a metal in the fluid will plate out on the strip in the area surrounding the pad 20.
A preferred embodiment of the invention has been described. It is intended, however, that various changes may be made with respect thereto without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. For example, various types of lead frames, as well as other types of metallic strips, may be plated, which might require changes in the relative positions of the apertures in the several masking members and/or a change in the central masking pedestal and member 122 and 123 of the station 52. Also, the number of plating jets in the stations may be increased or decreased to accommodate a particular applicaton. Further, it is intended that various types and combinations of metals other than those described may be plated with the apparatus and according to the method of the present invention. Accordingly, the scope of the invention is intended not to be limited to the embodiment described, but to be construed as broadly as the following claims permit.

Tomatillo Soup
Be the first to review
READY IN: 55mins
Recipe by FLUFFSTER
By putting some sour cream in the soup, it actually cools off some of the heat from the jalapeno pepper. Another way would be to not put so much jalapeno in in the first place! Either way it's a great soup! This recipe is from Weight Watchers. Note: I do not follow the Weight Watchers diet; I am providing this recipe for those who do. I add salt and other seasonings that I like. You may do as you wish.

Incredibly Hot Buffalo Wing Sauce
Recipe by JMS0173
This is a recipe I made up during my obsession with buffalo wings. It is not the traditional buffalo sauce recipe, but does incorporate the hot sauce and butter as main ingredients. I must admit that the proportions are mere guidelines, as I make it by tasting and adjusting frequently. It is VERY HOT, but has a nice depth of flavor and pungency. The sauce is slightly chunky, owing
Top Review by TheGrumpyChef
I have not had a better hot wing sauce. Love the unique, chunky texture of the sauce. I make a double batch of this every time to keep on hand in a sqeeze bottle in the fridge. I even like to toss it with my grilled shrimp! Definitely going into my faves for 2010! YUM, YUM, YUM!

My So-Called Life is simply one of the most groundbreaking, if not the most groundbreaking, television drama series ever produced. It debuted during the fall of 1994 and was cancelled after the first season ended in 1995. But when MTV decided to syndicate episodes, the show became a pop cultural phenomenon.
My So-Called Life was different from previous sitcoms — it was completely real. The show dealt with real issues such as infidelity, alcoholism, bullying, gay rights, and teenage sex. Previous shows ignored these issues or dealt with them in an unrealistic way where the issue was easily solved and everybody lived happily ever after.
Let's take a look at the five best episodes of My So-Called Life.
5. "Guns and Gossip"
This episode originally aired on Sept. 8, 1994. Hearing a gun go off while the kids were in class was shocking. This, of course, happened before all the school shootings that started in the late 1990s. The episode makes the viewer question who actually shot the gun. We find out at the end that it was actually Ricky (played by Wilson Cruz), the gay character who was being bullied and wanted to be seen as some sort of threat.
Devon Gummersall, who plays Brian Krakow, gave one of his best performances yet, especially when he threatens the principal who tries to bribe information out of him. Clair Danes, as usual, also gives a great performance as her character, Angela, is facing rumors that she slept with a guy she's been eyeing, Jordan Catalano.
The "Life of Brian" episode originally aired on November 10, 1994. Devon Gummersall is the narrator of this episode, and he once again gives a spectacular performance. The majority of the episode finds Brian trying to choose between two women, or at least that's what he thinks. Brian at first chooses to go to the dance with Dalia Fisher, but he cancels his date (extremely heartbreaking scene) so he could go with Angela Chase, who is just using him to get a ride.
Angela sees Jordan at the dance and ignores Brian. Ricky falls in love with an (allegedly) straight guy he knows he just can't get. All in all, everybody ends up having a miserable time at the dance.
3. "The Zit"
"The Zit" originally aired on September 22, 1994. It's certainly an episode almost everybody can identify with. In the episode, Angela has an ugly zit by her mouth that she just doesn't want to pop, and it makes her feel inferior. In fact, because of the zit, Angela doesn't even want to appear with her mother at the latest mother and daughter fashion show.
Meanwhile, there is a student poll going around that lists Sharon as the one with the "best global assets." Angela is upset that her name doesn't even pop up on the list, but Sharon isn't exactly happy either as she thinks her boyfriend loves her only because of her breasts. The whole episode deals with misogyny in a way that the topic hasn't been generally dealt with until recently.
"Strangers in the House" is a tear-jerking episode about the loss of friendship, growing apart, and then coming back together. Sharon Cherski's father has a heart attack and Angela's parents agree to take her in so Sharon's mother can be at the hospital. Given that Sharon and Angela were childhood friends and grew apart, it's quite awkward for both of them.
Angela gives Sharon the silent treatment, mostly because she doesn't know how to act. Towards the end, in one of the most touching scenes ever on television, Sharon tells Angela how much she needed her. They both cry, hug each other, and recall their childhood friendship.
1. "So-Called Angels"
"So-Called Angels" may be the most touching episode of a show ever made, especially if you were an LGBT member in the 1990s and survived all the hate towards the community. In this episode, Wilson Cruz gives the performance of a lifetime as Ricky, who becomes homeless after he is abused by his uncle, his legal guardian at the time.
He is followed around by a guardian angel, played by Juliana Hatfield, who herself was a runaway teen who died of frostbite. Angela's mother Patty doesn't like the fact that Angela is visiting Ricky or the angel (who she just thinks is a homeless girl) at the warehouse. Patty and Angela get in a huge fight, and Patty goes out to find Angela. Patty's encounter with the guardian angel at the end is one that will require a box full of tissues.

text: "Looking ahead, we're closely monitoring the industry for acquisition candidates that may become available and, as always, we're mindful for price," L-3 chairman and CEO Michael Strianese said during his company's earnings call. Multiple defense sources said they believe that if one company announces a substantial deal, it could prompt others to quickly get serious about M&A. When the ice does thaw, look for security -- both physical and cyber -- to be an area of particular focus. Analysts expect spending on software that can lock down networks, spy on rivals and assess threats and high-tech sensors that can peer around corners or provide clearer views from the air to grow faster than spending on big-ticket items such as new jets and warships. "Technology is the new arms race, and some of the best research is being done in small to midsized firms," one defense banker said. "Prime contractors traditionally have been more than willing to invest to bring new intelligence in-house." Rogers of Harris Williams said he expects to see a lot of portfolio reshaping. He sees a trend toward large contractors, many of whom are under new leadership in the past 12 to 18 months, moving away from previous efforts to be a one-stop shop in favor of more specialization, and he expects to see some large-scale divestitures as a result.

The candidates' essay question for 2016-2017:
The adage "All politics is local." is known to have been coined by Washington AP bureau chief Byron Price in 1932. Tip O'Neill, who was the Democratic House Speaker, 1977-1987, first used the term back in 1935, when he was first entering politics and ran for a seat on the Cambridge, Massachusetts City Council in 1935, while he was still a student at Boston College. However, there are those who would argue that the past several decades have seen politics become increasingly nationalized. Prepare an essay addressing the question, "What happens when the people of a constitutional democracy, such as the United States, only participate in national elections, forgetting or ignoring issues of local and state politics?"
- Discuss the meaning of the adage "all politics is local".
- Use factual information, data, or examples to explain its application to both local and state politics of North Carolina.
- Explain how elections and voting influence 1) local and state politics, 2) national politics, and 3) the United States' world politics.
- Keeping in mind the question, take a position arguing the sentiment of those who would say that politics is less local than it used to be.
- Explain your position and provide support for it.
- Based on your discussions and position draw a conclusion for what you think happens when the people only participate in national elections.

Tarpanam refers to the offerings made to an individual's ancestors according to the method prescribed by the vedas. This is performed by religious Hindus in honour of their ancestors. It is believed that such offerings can make the dead ancestors happy and help the offering individuals lead their future lives in peace. Tarpanams are performed periodically and on specific days such as during amavasya (No moon day), eclipses etc.

It will also have a new epilogue written by my spouse, Deirdre, who is the one person readers are most curious about.
The initial military autopsy on Deirdre came back inconclusive as to the cause of her death.
Deirdre Smith, 47, of Austell, Georgia, was shot and killed Monday while trying to break up a neighborhood fight.
"Between Deirdre and Violet there is more than a fire," Yanique writes.
The three heroes stripped and tied their clothes behind their heads, and Naois placed Deirdre on the top of his shoulder.
"We're going to take a look at the spot where we think she catches her fish," said Deirdre.
And somehow the fact that Deirdre was aboard and a participant in the secret made his exclusion an insult.
Then Deirdre appeared in shore-going clothes of extreme femininity.
"You knew he couldn't afford to come under the notice of the law," Deirdre said.
Terry went with him to get the outboard motorboat he and Deirdre had used before.

Billiard Blitz 2 - Snooker Skool game
Firstly - why Snooker? Snooker is a hugely popular and rapidly growing sport enjoyed by millions of people worldwide. The 2009 Snooker World Championships were viewed by 24 million people in the UK, over 60 million in the rest of Europe, and a staggering 110 million viewers in China tuned in to watch. Snooker attracts big sponsors and huge prize funds (the 2009 World Championships had a total prize fund of 1.1 million GB Pounds or 1.8 million US Dollars). Perceived by some as a more complicated version of Pool, the rules of Snooker are actually surprisingly simple, yet it requires a greater depth of skill and strategy to master. That's where 'Billiard Blitz 2 - Snooker Skool' comes in. More than just an enjoyable game, 'Billiard Blitz 2 - Snooker Skool' guides you through how to play snooker with a range of progressively more challenging tasks and animated tutorials, introducing elementary concepts such as how to aim and learning the rules of the game, to more advanced techniques such as cue ball positioning using spin. 'Billiard Blitz 2 - Snooker Skool' utilises advanced physics, lifelike sound and dynamic lighting for an accurate simulation of the game making it, we believe, the most realistic and rewarding Flash Snooker game available.

Awesome ring! Amazing value!
This ring is BEAUTIFUL!! Everyone who has seen it is impressed, cannot believe I got it on overstock. I am with the reviewers who say picture does not do it justice! VERY HAPPY with this one. When considering it, I visited sites of jewelry chains and found a couple that appear to be same ring, both for $***. This is a really good value.Read More
At first, I was a little skeptical about purchasing a ring online. The risk of it being a total fraud almost made me run to a nearby jeweler and pay nearly triple the amount listed here. But, I'm so glad I went with overstock anyway, here's why: 1) Guilt free, hassle free shopping. I studied men's wedding bands for 3 weeks. At a jewelry store, I felt pressured as if they were, "always cutting me the best deal". Here, I could look at a ring, compare it with others save it, and revisit it later. 2) Quick Delivery, I got the ring the same week I ordered it. I don't know about you, but as a bride with a wedding next month, getting that quick of a turnaround put me at ease. 3) 2 yr protection plan for 20 bucks. Need I say more? 4) Last but not least - the ring. When we finally got it, wow. All I could think was, this looks even better than the pictures. For some reason the ring looks like it will be thin from the photos but it is a decent size and not to heavy, fits my fiancee perfectly and thick enough to get engraved. Seriously, once people catch on this, jewelry stores will be in big trouble business wise (if they already aren't).Read More

14k white gold men's wedding band
This ring provides somewhat good value for the money. I was looking for a Men's 14k white gold wedding band. I didn't want to spend a lot of money and I liked the design. The ring is a easy fit ring not a comfort ring. I didn't really know the difference, but I do now. The ring still has edging that you can feel around my finger. The ring is also lightweight which surprised me. I returned the ring with customer service with absolutely no problems. I ended up buying another 14 karat white gold men's band that was heavier and had a comfort fit design.Read More

Bright and Shiny
I was looking for a white gold ring with miligrain detail and a rough brushed texture. I'd found it at jewelry stores for between $950 and $1200. Didn't think I'd find it for $$$. The color of this ring is bright white gold. It's not dingy, not grayed. The pattern is clear and there aren't any defects in the groves or brushed areas. The ring is lightweight and very comfortable. I barely know I'm wearing it. If you do any heavy work with your hands, you're probably going to want to take this ring off. It's thin enough that it might start to oval. On my big meathooks, this ring might be a little small. It's 5mm across, which is about average for a man's ring. But it looks great. It's classic and professional and the pattern gives it a lot of depth and brilliance. It's a keeper. So is she.Read More

The School of Engineering and Applied Sciences has six concentrations:
The launch of Harvard's newest school in 2007 was the University's answer to several big questions: Given the complex nature of problems such as climate change, the global demand for energy, cyber-security, and providing clean water, a modern infrastructure, and health care for a growing population, what fields will be most relevant in the next century? How can we bring together the vast expertise and resources of the University to address these challenges? What is the most effective way to educate students so that they can have real-world impact on these problems, regardless of their field of study?
All of these global problems involve engineering and technology. None can be solved with technology alone.
Through these concentrations, the Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) takes a fresh approach to studying and teaching these increasingly important disciplines. At SEAS, engineering, computer science, applied mathematics, and the applied sciences are an integral part of a liberal arts environment, benefiting from interdisciplinary connections to other parts of a major research university with world-class professional schools.
Students who study engineering, computer science, applied math, and applied sciences enhance their ability to create change by learning how to creatively problem-solve, how to model what already exists, and how to use these models to innovate. The mission of SEAS is to educate well-rounded engineers, computer scientists, applied mathematicians, and applied scientists by enabling them to develop these skills while leveraging strong connections to the arts and humanities, natural sciences, social sciences, and the professions. We aim to change the world by stimulating innovation and by training critical thinkers and doers — world leaders for academia, industry, research, government, medicine, law, and education.
SEAS has no departments and no legacy fields from the 20th century. Rather, the School is designed for the future, organized around teaching foundational engineering and applied science disciplines that are essential to addressing global problems and that harness the entire University's strengths. Concentrators work with faculty who are solving big, complex problems on the frontiers of translational life sciences, computational science and engineering, energy, environmental science and engineering, robotics and controls, and nanophotonics and nanoelectronics. Harvard has a distinct advantage over other institutions in these interdisciplinary research fields because of the breadth and depth of research and scholarship encompassed by SEAS, the broader Faculty of Arts and Sciences, and the professional schools.
Great teaching is a hallmark of SEAS, coupled with world-class research. We provide an unmatched education for SEAS concentrators. Our goal is to create "T-shaped" engineers and applied scientists (meaning students who have both technical depth in their field and the breadth of the Harvard liberal arts and residential life experience). Our students leave with the demonstrated ability to work in a team, to communicate persuasively, and to use an understanding of the societal and global context to solve real problems. We incorporate design, creativity, and entrepreneurship into the curriculum, while providing a rigorous ABET-accredited engineering program.
In addition to providing an unparalleled education for concentrators, a companion goal of SEAS is for every Harvard College student to take at least one SEAS course and be literate in engineering and technology. Regardless of their field — government, chemistry, history, economics, English — an educated person today must be facile with technology. Harvard College graduates are destined to be leaders who will be required to make decisions that involve engineering or technology.
SEAS is a leader in innovative teaching and learning. Our curriculum includes active learning and engineering design, and we are increasingly utilizing "flipped classrooms" and integrating peer-based learning into our classes. Our introductory courses provide gateways where all students can learn and find success.
Since it was founded, SEAS has invested heavily in teaching programs and focused on key faculty hires in targeted research fields. Today, SEAS concentrators are 14 percent of all Harvard College concentrators (and roughly 35 percent are women — double the national average for our fields). The number of incoming freshmen indicating an interest in engineering or computer science increased from 6 percent before the launch of the School to 15 percent in 2013. And the number of Harvard College students taking at least one SEAS course has more than doubled to 4,000.
Applied Mathematics is a quantitative liberal arts degree that provides the opportunity for combining mathematical thinking with any subject for which mathematics can be productively applied. Applied Mathematics is inherently an interdisciplinary concentration with ties to other concentrations both within and outside of SEAS. In particular, Applied Math has strong intellectual connections to computer science, mathematics, statistics, and economics. It is common for Applied Math plans of study to be similar to within a few courses to plans of study in these other concentrations, and students often move back and forth between Applied Math and these other concentrations as they refine their academic interests. For example, students may move from Mathematics or Statistics to Applied Math if they want a deeper involvement with a particular area of application than may be provided within these other concentrations. Similarly, students may move from Applied Math to Mathematics or Statistics if they prefer to take more theoretical approach to these studies. Students pursuing these topics can obtain an A.B. degree in Applied Mathematics or a secondary field in Mathematical Sciences. The secondary field is sponsored jointly by the Applied Mathematics concentration and the Mathematics Department.
Biomedical Engineering lies at the intersection of the physical and life sciences, incorporating principles from physics and chemistry to understand the functioning of living systems. The overarching intellectual goal of biomedical engineering is to apply quantitative engineering analysis to understand the operation of living systems, and to design novel systems to satisfy unmet needs in clinical medicine. Biomedical engineering distinguishes itself from the other life sciences disciplines by using scientific knowledge to create new biomaterials and devices. Students pursuing these topics can obtain an A.B. degree in Biomedical Engineering or A.B. and S.B. degrees in Engineering Sciences with a biomedical focus.
Computer Science. Computation has changed the world -- from social connections to scientific analyses, from finance to marketing, the world has become interconnected, data driven, and computation centric. Computer Science is the study of the principles, techniques, and tools that enable this transformation, today and in the future. Students concentrating in Computer Science take a range of courses encompassing theoretical foundations to practical applications sharing an intellectual heritage from mathematics, engineering, and design. Computer Science concentrators learn about how modern computational systems are designed and built, and how these systems can be used to effectively and efficiently solve a variety of problems. Its lessons extend well beyond the boundaries of computer science, with applications for using and manipulating information in disciplines ranging from medicine to economics. Computer Science is closely related to a number of other concentrations at Harvard. Courses on computer hardware design are also offered in Electrical Engineering; on mathematical modeling of various phenomena in Applied Mathematics; and on analysis of large data sets in Statistics.
Electrical Engineering students learn how to analyze, design and build devices and systems for computation, communication and information transfer. Electrical engineering spans a broad range of topics, ranging from the physics of new materials and devices, the circuits and next-generation computing platforms made from these devices, and the algorithms that run on these platforms. The range of subtopics includes power systems, (micro)electronics, control systems, signal processing, telecommunications, and computing systems. The electrical engineering concentration options complement the scientific and technological goals embodied in the physical, life, mathematical, and computer sciences. Students pursuing these topics can obtain an S.B. degree in Electrical Engineering or an A.B. degree in Engineering Sciences with an electrical focus.
Environmental Science & Engineering is an interdisciplinary field that applies principles from the natural sciences and mathematics to better understand and address environmental challenges. The overarching goals of the field are to protect human health from adverse environmental conditions, to protect local and global environments from the deleterious effects of human activities, and to improve environmental quality. Students interested in environmental science and engineering study the fundamental processes and technologies underlying environmental systems, including natural and polluted waters and soils, the atmosphere, climate, and energy. Students learn to apply these principles to mitigate human impact on the environment by providing technical solutions and advancing innovations in environmental measurement, modeling, and control. Students pursuing these topics can obtain an A.B. or S.B. degree in Engineering Sciences with an environmental focus.
Mechanical Engineering students receive a foundational education in a discipline central to challenges in energy, transportation, manufacturing, robotics, and the development of public infrastructure. Mechanical engineering deals with the study and application of mechanical systems. It covers a range of subtopics including mechatronics and robotics, structural analysis, thermodynamics and engineering design including the analysis of mechanical systems using finite element methods, the science of new materials and devices for micro electromechanical systems (MEMS), and biological and nanotechnology applications. The concentration options in mechanical engineering complement the scientific and technological goals embodied in the physical, life, mathematical, and computer sciences. Students pursuing these topics can obtain an S.B degree in Mechanical Engineering or an A.B. degree in Engineering Sciences with a mechanical focus.
SEAS concentrators are part of a vibrant School and University community, dedicated to excellent teaching and learning and trailblazing research. Students taking SEAS classes gain the technical knowledge and broad-based perspective needed to understand the complexities of technology and society and to develop practical solutions to the challenges that will define life in the decades ahead.
