A typical circuit board assembly includes a section of circuit board material (e.g., layers of FR4, copper, plated-through holes, etc.), circuit board components (e.g., integrated circuit devices, discrete capacitors, resistors and diodes, connectors, etc.), and supplemental hardware (e.g., heat sinks, insertion/extraction levers, etc.). The section of circuit board material includes layers of conductive and non-conductive material sandwiched together to form a network of electrical pathways that connect the circuit board components together.
Each component 22 includes a transmitter 28 and a receiver 30. In particular, the component 22(A) includes a transmitter 28(A) which is configured to transmit a differential signal 32(AB) to a receiver 30(B) of the component 22(B) through the differential pair 26(AB). Similarly, the component 22(B) includes a transmitter 28(B) which is configured to transmit a differential signal 32(BA) to a receiver 30(A) of the component 22(A) through the differential pair 26(BA).
More specifically, each transmitter 28 (e.g., see the transmitter 28(B)) includes a serial input 34, a differential signal output 36 (i.e., a positive output 36(+) and a negative output 36(−)), a core voltage terminal 38, an input/output (I/O) voltage terminal 40, and a ground terminal 42. Similarly, each receiver 30 (e.g., see the receiver 30(A)) includes a differential signal input 44 (i.e., a positive input 44(+) and a negative input 44(−)), a serial output 46, a core voltage terminal 48, an input/output (I/O) voltage terminal 50, and a ground terminal 52. The ground terminal 42 of each transmitter 28 and the ground terminal 52 of each receiver 30 connect to a common ground 54 through a contiguous conductor 56 (e.g., a common ground plane in the context of a single circuit board). It should be understood that, although the ground terminals 42, 52 of the transmitter 28(B) and the receiver 30(A) are not shown connected to the common ground 54 for simplification of
Furthermore, each differential pair 26(AB), 26(BA) (e.g., see the differential pair 26(AB)) includes a positive line 58(+) configured to carry a positive signal relative to the common ground 54, a negative line 58(−) negative signal relative to the common ground 54, and a direct current (DC) blocking capacitor 60 in the middle of each line 58(+), 58(−). The DC blocking capacitors 60 block the passage of direct current through the positive and negative lines 58(+), 58(−) (i.e., to provide DC electrical separation) and thus enable the components 22 at the ends of the differential pairs 26(AB), 26(BA) to connect to different voltages, as well as enjoy I/O protection during hot insertion (in the context of multiple circuit boards) and power up.
Unfortunately, there are deficiencies to the above-described conventional circuit 20 (see
If discrete 0402 type capacitors are used (i.e., each capacitor is 40 mils by 20 mils), the 640 DC blocking capacitors consume roughly 4.1 square inches of circuit board space. That is, 640 capacitors�40 mils�20 mils�8=4.1 square inches, where 8 is a representative amount that compensates for various circuit board requirements (e.g., keep out regions, vias to connect between different circuit board layers, etc.).
In contrast to the above-described conventional approach which uses two DC blocking capacitors for each differential pair extending between two circuit board components, improved techniques employ a DC blocking capacitor along a signal return path of a circuit board (e.g., along a ground path) and alleviates the need for two DC blocking capacitors for each differential pair. In certain arrangements, the signal return path is formed by two ground planes separated by a dielectric layer thus creating an embedded capacitor within the circuit board itself thereby alleviating the need for a discrete DC blocking capacitor.
One embodiment is directed to a circuit board having a first component interface configured to connect to a first circuit board component, a second component interface configured to connect to a second circuit board component, a differential signal pair electrically connecting the first component interface to the second component interface, and a signal return path configured to operate as a signal return pathway for the differential signal pair. The signal return path includes first conductive material which is in electrical communication with the first component interface, second conductive material which is in electrical communication with the second component interface, and a dielectric which provides direct current separation between the first and second conductive material. Such a circuit board may alleviate the need for DC blocking capacitors along the differential pair, and along other differential pairs when the circuit board has multiple differential pairs connecting the first and second component interfaces.
The foregoing and other objects, features and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the following description of particular embodiments of the invention, as illustrated in the accompanying drawings in which like reference characters refer to the same parts throughout the different views. The drawings are not necessarily to scale, emphasis instead being placed upon illustrating the principles of the invention.
Improved techniques employ a DC blocking capacitor along a signal return pathway of a circuit board (e.g., along a ground path) and alleviates the need for two DC blocking capacitors for each differential pair. In certain arrangements, the signal return path is formed by two ground planes separated by a dielectric layer thus creating an embedded capacitor within the circuit board itself.
Each component 82 includes a transmitter 88 and a receiver 90. In particular, the component 82(A) includes a transmitter 88(A) which is configured to transmit a differential signal 92(AB) to a receiver 90(B) of the component 82(B) through the differential pair 86(AB). Similarly, the component 82(B) includes a transmitter 88(B) which is configured to transmit a differential signal 92(BA) to a receiver 90(A) of the component 82(A) through the differential pair 86(BA).
More specifically, each transmitter 88 (e.g., see the transmitter 88(B)) includes a serial input 94, a differential signal output 96 (i.e., a positive output 96(+) and a negative output 96(−)), a core voltage terminal 98, an input/output (I/O) voltage terminal 100, and a ground terminal 102. Similarly, each receiver 90 (e.g., see the receiver 90(A)) includes a differential signal input 104 (i.e., a positive input 104(+) and a negative input 104(−)), a serial output 106, a core voltage terminal 108, an input/output (I/O) voltage terminal 110, and a ground terminal 112.
Each differential pair 86(AB), 86(BA) (e.g., see the differential pair 86(AB)) includes a positive line 118(+) configured to carry a positive signal relative to the ground 114, a negative line 118(−) negative signal relative to the ground 114 which are electrically contiguous and thus capable of carrying direct current between the components 82. In such an arrangement, there are no DC blocking capacitors along the differential pairs 86(AB), 86(BA) that would otherwise consume circuit board real estate.
As further shown in
It should be understood that the ground terminal 102 of the transmitter 88(B) is connected directly to the ground 114 even though such a connecting line has been omitted from
The configuration of
However, in contrast to conventional circuits which place DC blocking capacitors on differential pairs, there is no need for DC blocking capacitors on the differential pairs. That is, the differential link 84 between transmitters 88 and receivers 90 of the components 82 is free of DC blocking capacitors (see
As shown in
By way of example, the components 82(A), 82(B) are illustrated as high-density area array package (AAP) devices. Along these lines, Ball Grid Array (BGA) packages, Ceramic Column Grid Array (CCGA) packages, and the like are suitable for use. In this example, the component interfaces are arrays of surface mount technology (SMT) pads which solder to the components 82(A), 82(B) using an SMT soldering process.
As shown in
In some arrangements, a single pair of ground planes form the embedded capacitor. For example, the conductive material 140(A) forms a ground plane 140(A1), and the conductive material 140(B) forms another ground plane 140(B1). In these arrangements, the dielectric 142 is a layer of non-conductive circuit board material which separates the ground plane 140(A1) from the other ground plane 140(B1) thus forming an embedded DC blocking capacitor (also see the DC blocking capacitor 120 in
In other arrangements, a multiple pairs of ground planes form the embedded capacitor. For example, as shown in
It should be understood that the embedded DC capacitor within the circuit board 132 provides advantageous high-frequency properties of very low inductance. Accordingly, this arrangement greatly improves high-speed differential channel performance over conventional circuit boards using DC blocking capacitors on differential signal pairs.
Nevertheless, it should be understood that, for additional capacitance, one or more discrete DC blocking capacitors 144 (e.g., one, two, and so on) can be mounted to the circuit board 132. Such discrete DC blocking capacitors 144 are placed on the board in parallel with the plane capacitance (i.e., the capacitance provided by the ground planes). By way of example,
It should be further understood that the example above shows two components 82(A), 82(B) as AAP packaged devices connected to each other on a single circuit board 132. In other arrangements, a component 82(A) is a high-density packaged device and the other component 82(B) is a circuit board connector. Accordingly, the component 82(A) can communicate with components on other circuit boards through the component 82(B) and the differential signal pairs 136 extending therebetween. Further details will now be provided with reference to
As shown in
It should be understood that the power supply 202(A) further includes a transformer 204 for converting voltage. As such, the power supply 202(A) connects to both sides 116(A), 116(B) of the return path 116. In particular, the transformer 204 of the power supply 202(A) includes a primary winding 206 on the side 116(B) (e.g., for a 10 Volt input) and a secondary winding 208 on the side 116(A) (e.g., for a 3 Volt output). A leg 210 of the primary winding 206 (i.e., an input ground terminal of the transformer 204) electrically connects to the side 116(B) of the return path 116.
Likewise, a leg 212 of the secondary winding 208 (i.e., an output ground terminal of the transformer 204) electrically connects to the side 116(A) of the return path 116. Nevertheless, the DC blocking capacitor 120 and the direct current isolation of the windings 206, 208 of the transformer 204 maintain DC isolation between the sides 116(A), 116(B) of the return path 116. It should be understood that the non-grounded leg of the primary winding 206 is connected to other input voltage circuitry which is omitted from
Similarly, the power supply 202(B) includes a ground terminal 214(B), a core voltage terminal 216(B) and an I/O voltage terminal 218(B). Additionally, the component 82(B) includes a ground terminal 220(B), a core voltage terminal 222(B) and an I/O voltage terminal 224(B). The ground terminals 214(B), 22(B) connect to the side 116(B) of the return path 116 leading to the ground reference 114 (recall that the return path 116(B) corresponds to the conductive material 140(B) of
For the arrangement in
It should be understood that the component 82(A)′ is thus able to operate using two separate ground nets. One ground is for core power from the power supply 236(A), and the other ground is for I/O power from the power supply 202(A). The ground for core power connects directly to the return path side 116(B) leading to the ground reference 114 (e.g., common ground) while the ground for I/O circuitry of the component 82(A)′ is dedicated and DC isolated from the ground reference 114.
In other arrangements, the power supply 236(A) provides power to the core circuitry and some I/O circuitry of the component 82(A)′. In these arrangements, the power supply 202(A) provides power only to other I/O circuitry of the component 82(A)′ which is directly involved in transmitting and receiving the high-speed differential-mode communications.
As mentioned above, improved techniques employ a DC blocking capacitor 120 along a signal return path 116 of a circuit board 132 (e.g., along a ground path) and alleviates the need for two DC blocking capacitors for each differential pair. In certain arrangements, the signal return path 116 is formed by at least two ground planes (e.g., see ground planes 140(A1), 140(B1) in
While this invention has been particularly shown and described with references to preferred embodiments thereof, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
For example, it should be understood that the DC blocking capacitor 120 along the return path 116 (

Best Of :: Arts & Entertainment
The Isley Brothers loved to cause a ruckus. They released "Shout" in 1959 and "Twist and Shout" in 1962 (and a few people probably made some noise to their 1983 single, "Between the Sheets"). Both songs are classic singalongs at parties and weddings and are perfect fits, thematically, for Shout Karaoke in downtown West Palm Beach. Like its musical namesake, Shout is a fun, friendly, and often silly karaoke joint with options for both the attention whores and the shy guys. An unassuming entrance leads directly into the heart of the action in front of the main bar. The entire floor is the stage, allowing singers to hide near a hi-top or strut their stuff in the faces of passersby. In the rear is a second bar and lounge area, and eight private karaoke rooms line either side of the lounge. It's ideal for birthdays and private parties, and upstairs in the pool hall, there's an escape from all the wailing banshees. The best thing about Shout is how supportive the room always is. Regardless of your level of suck, people will always clap. (Yes, a bit of liquid courage poured by the awesome bartenders helps.)
Readers' choice: Dubliner Irish Pub
A show whose title conjures swingers clubs and hedonistic Craigslist searches had better be hot. And the Theatre at Arts Garage's production of Laura Eason's Sex With Strangers was indeed smokin', with enough sexual tension and torn-off clothing to turn its spectators into voyeurs. It was also a witty, sophisticated, and trenchant observation on the changing social mores and literary shifts of the 21st Century. Jacqueline Laggy starred as a 40-something novelist piecing together her sophomore book after a middling response to her debut, and Michael Uribe shone as a misogynistic millennial with a successful media empire centered on his playboy ethos. The actors smoldered and simmered and punched and counterpunched in equal measure, their pitch-perfect chemistry humanizing this pointed mystery through its boldly open conclusion. Arts Garage's entire theater season scratched at libidinous itches, but only Sex With Strangers had the performances to back it up.
Slow Burn's regional premiere of this Steven Sater/Duncan Sheik Tony winner offered the visceral thrills of a rock show within the tight structure of a Broadway musical. In the inspired hands of director Patrick Fitzwater, this tragic coming-of-age narrative about teenage sexuality flowering in an authoritative 19th-century Germany bristled with the sort of angst, frustration, retaliation, and liberation rarely heard (or seen) since Pink Floyd's The Wall. From the precarious chair choreography of "The Bitch of Living" to the ravishingly lit, cobalt dreamscape of "The Mirror Blue Night," Fitzwater's choreography reinvented wheels and kept them turning efficiently at the same time. Sean McClelland's set, with its subtle nooks and crannies, flawlessly balanced artistry and economy, while the actors conveyed oceans of feeling with single drops of expression, finding an aching tenderness among the adolescent cacophony. Whether or not you've seen the Broadway tours of Spring Awakening, it's hard to fathom a better production.
Michael Leeds' world premiere of Who Killed Joan Crawford? at Island City Stage was an amusing respite from a season dominated by works of political and social provocation. Predicated on the durable stereotype (or just flat-out reality) that gay men love Joan Crawford, Leeds' comedic murder mystery is built on an ingenious conceit: a birthday gathering of Crawford devotees who are required to show up dressed as a favorite Joan role. When one of the Joans is found in a closet, hung in more ways than one, it sets off a chain of mysterious deaths, forcing the others to suspect the obvious: One of these men, clad in the frocks of '40s femmes fatale and crazed, eyebrow-arching matriarchs, is a killer. Spiked with the inside-showbiz humor at which Leeds excels — on top of everything, it's the night of the Tony awards, whose importance is just as paramount for some of the Joans as fingering the serial killer in their midst — Who Killed Joan Crawford? proved equally adept at surprising us. And at a lean 75 minutes, it didn't overstay its campy welcome.
Dramaworks began its recent season with back-to-back Carbonell-winning gems late last year: William Inge's classically structured, voluminously populated Picnic, with its career-best performance from a virtuosic Margery Lowe; and Alan Bennett's coming-of-age drama The History Boys about, among other things, sexual misconduct in an English grammar school. Don't be surprised if the company accrues more statuettes for its stellar, benchmark-setting work in early 2016 as well. In an era when intermission-less 80-minute plays are the new standard, few companies would subject their audiences to the three-and-a-half-hour family exorcism that is Long Day's Journey Into Night. But Dramaworks' exemplary production forced us to wallow with Eugene O'Neill's demons, the final act representing the most artistically fertile discomfort imaginable. Its follow-up play, the sweet and teary Outside Mullingar, flawlessly exhibited the company's romantic side with a superbly acted, wondrously designed rendition of the John Patrick Shanley hit. These four works added up to a perfect synthesis of source material and production values.
Readers' choice: Broward Center for the Performing Arts
When she's not acting in musicals, Avery Sommers brings grace and elegance to her solo performances at cabaret venues around the country. But as the pioneering blues siren Bessie Smith in the Theatre at Arts Garage's The Devil's Music, she easily eschewed tact and niceties, embodying the brassy and boisterous legend through every lascivious hip movement and shrapnel-leaving F-bomb. From her mannerisms to her voice to her costuming, she could have passed for Smith's doppelgänger. Without ever leaving the stage and besotted by a bottomless selection of alcohol, Sommers' version of Bessie performed 15 numbers in a variety of styles — from a cappella gospel to swing to spartan blues — while sharing a life story rife with triumphs and tragedies. Though primarily a celebration of Smith's art, Sommers expressed plenty of subtle acting chops between the numbers, evident in the way her righteous anger segued naturally into knowing smiles or when she found the cracks of vulnerability in her character's towering persona.

In the mini-commentary, both Matt Stone and Trey Parker remarked that they never saw "An Inconvenient Truth" but were still outraged that it won every major award that year for Best Documentary as in Stone's own words, "It's not a documentary. It's a Power-Point Presentation." Actually, "Inconvenient Truth" was done on Apple software, which makes it a Keynote Presentation. Power-Point is done on Microsoft.
At the first scene, when the kids are listening to Al Gore's lecture in school, Tweek's seat alternates every time. When the camera zooms out, we can see him seating with Craig in front of the boys, but on the close-ups, he seats behind them.
While in the cave cartman is seen drinking a bottle of water with a label that reads "Wottur".
Did you notice in the picture of Cartman's "treasure" there was a Ginger kid?
Al Gore: All right kids, I need you to keep an eye out for ManBearPig droppings.
Kyle: What do ManBearPig droppings look like?
Al Gore: Similar to pig droppings but more manbear-like.
Woman : Take a picture of the sound Steven.
Tour Guide: This one here we named "The Hanging Mushroom", and over here we have "Man With helmet and two bowling balls", and finally here of course are "The Two Sisters".
Cartman: Dude, what are you doing?
Al Gore: I'm spreading manbearpig awareness.
Mr. Mackey: M'kay, students, we have a very special guest speaker today. Who can tell me the name of our country's last vice-president?
Kyle: Dick Cheney?
Mr. Mackey: No, the last one.
Butters: Bill Clinton.
Mr. Mackey: No, Clinton's vice-president. He is here today to talk to you students about some very serious issues. Please welcome Al Gore.
Stan: Who?
Al Gore: Why won't anybody listen to me?! ManBearPig is in there and we have to kill him while we all have the chance! I'm cereal!
Miner: Mr. Gore, please, we need you to calm down. Now, what exactly do you suggest we do?
Al Gore: I told you we need to fill the cave with hot molten lead, cause it's the only way to make sure ManBearPig never comes out! And I'm sane and I'm totally cereal, but everyone just keeps digging!
Miner: Well, see, the problen is that if we fill the caves with hot molten lead, it will kill those boys too.
Al Gore: They're already dead! Didn't you listen to me? They got attacked by a ManBearPig and ManBearPig leaves nobody alive! I'm super cereal! Nobody will listen to me but I'm cereal! (he starts to weep)
Officer: Do you want me to get the ex vice president out of here?
Miner: Naw, I feel kind of bad for him. I don't think he has any friends.
Al Gore: (on the phone with Stan) Can you and your friends make it to an emergency ManBearPig meeting tomorrow morning? I have some evidence he could be in this area.
Stan: Eh look, I'm sorry but, we're all kind of busy.
Al Gore: … Oh. I get it. You don't believe me either.
Stan: No, no, it's not that.
Al Gore: Yes it is! Nobody believes me! I'm trying to warn everybody and nobody takes me cereal! (starts weeping) I just want somebody in the world to take me cereal just for once!
Stan: It's okay, Mr. Gore, I, I believe you.
Al Gore: No you don't!
Stan: Yeah, I'm sure ManBearPig needs to be stopped. I'm just… I'm just scared that I can't do anything to stop him.
Al Gore: Are you cereal?
Stan: … Yes, I'm cereal.
Al Gore: (reinvigorated) Don't worry! We CAN stop him! Bring everyone you can to my ManBearPig meeting tomorrow at 8 a.m. sharp!
Kyle: We need to get our friend to a hospital right away!
Cartman: No! No I'm fine! I just need to get home, a-and rest.
Stan: Cartman, seriously, you need to see a doctor!
Cartman: No! I just need to get to a toilet. See you guys. I… habbeh… HABBEHHHHHHHHHH! (he craps out the treasure he ate. Everyone stares at him)
Kyle: Dude, did Cartman just crap treasure?
Cartman: It's mine! It's mine, you hear me?! I got it out of the cave! It belongs to me! Keep your greedy hands away!
Tour Guide: Hey, that looks like the fake treasure from our Smuggler's Den photo room.
Cartman: That's right, and I… fake treasure?
Al Gore: I am super duper cereal!
(Cartman poops out treasure)
Kyle: You made us pull you back up because you ate treasure?! You son of a bitch!
Cartman: Shut up, Kyle!
Stan: (talking to Kyle while carrying Cartman) I can't keep carrying him, dude! I got no strength!
Cartman: (while coughing) Yes, you can!
Cartman: (begins coughing) Christ! Gotta' be strong! Still a lot more treasure to go! (Cartman starts eating and drinking water)
(The boys break through to the surface)
Rescuer Team: Oh, my god! It's the kids! They're alive!
Al Gore: Kids! I saved you!
Stan: Stay away from us, asshole! I was nice to you because I felt sorry for you, because you don't have any friends. But now I see WHY you don't have any friends. You just use 'ManBearPig' as a way to get attention for yourself because you're a LOSER!
Al Gore: Yeah right. The man who single-handedly killed 'ManBearPig' is a loser?
(Stan, Kyle, and Kenny are sleeping)
Cartman: All that treasure. It's all mine-so long as these greedy assholes don't find out about it. You would all just love to get your hands on my treasure, wouldn't you? Even though I found it, you'd love to think it's somehow yours, too. God, I hate you guys. (he starts crawling toward Kyle) Especially you, you money-grubbing snake in the grass. (Cartman is now inches from Kyle's face, and he starts to whisper) Well, I've got news for you, Kyle. You're never going to get my treasure. I've got a little plan going to get the treasure out of here without you ever knowing.
(Kyle wakes up, they are still face-to-face)
Kyle: C-Cartman?
Cartman: Oh, hey, Kyle. How's it going?
Kyle: Dude, what are you doing?
Cartman: Not much. You know, just hanging out. How you been, man? Good?
Kyle: Dude, get away from me.
Cartman: Yeah. Nice talking with you, Kyle. See you around.
Randy: Boys, I don't want you hanging out with that ex-vice president anymore, okay?
Stan: Aw, he's alright, dad. He was just trying to warn us about Manbearpig
Randy: Manbearpig?
Kyle: He's half man and half bearpig.
Cartman: No dude. He's half man, half bear, and half pig.
Kyle: That doesn't make any sense.
Stan: He could be half bear and half manpig.
Randy: Boys, there's no such thing as Manbearpig. The vice president is just desperate for attention.
Stan: But I feel kind of bad for him dad. I don't think he has any friends.
Al Gore: I am here to educate you about the single biggest threat to our planet. You see, there is something out there which threatens our very existence and may be the end to the human race as we know it. I'm talking, of course, about 'ManBearPig.'
Kyle: ManBearPig?
Al Gore: It is a creature which roams the Earth alone. It is half man, half bear, and half pig. Some people say that ManBearPig isn't real. Well, I'm here to tell you now, ManBearPig is very real, and he most certainly exists--I'm cereal. ManBearPig doesn't care what you've done. ManBearPig just wants to get you. I'm super cereal. But have no fear, because I am here to save you. And someday, when the world is rid of ManBearPig, everyone will say, "Thank you Al Gore--you're super awesome!" The end.
Mr. Mackey: Uh, Okay. Thank You, Mr. Gore.
Al Gore: Thank you class. Excelsior!
Al Gore: Excuse me. excuse me! This cave-in was no accident, and it isn't going to stop unless we move fast. I am super, duper cereal.
Rescue Leader: What do you mean, the cave-in is over.
Al Gore: I'm afraid you have a much bigger problem than a cave-in.
(Al Gore holds up a sketch of ManBearPig)
Fireman: What is that a Pigbearman?
Al Gore: No stupid, it's a ManBearPig.
There is no real ManBearPig in this episode. The only times ManBearPig appears in the episode are in Gore's drawing or when it turns out to be Gore in costume. This is in contrast to the earlier episode "Volcano", in which Scuzzlebutt is a real monster. This is due to the fact that MBP is a symbol for Global Warming.
This is Al Gore's second appearance on the show. His first appearance was on The Red Badge of Gayness.
This is the second time Cartman gain lots of weight.
Cave of the Winds:
The Cave of the Winds is a real tourist attraction in Colorado. It allows people to take a tour inside the mountain on which it is located.
Apple Computers :
One of the computers in Al Gore's headquarters looked very similar to an Apple system. The box near the monitor even had the Apple logo.
Stan Lee:
Al Gore: Excelsior!
Throughout the episode, Al Gore says "excelsior", which means "higher" in Latin. The word is used largely by Stan Lee, creator of many superheroes of the Marvel Universe. The Al Gore portrayed in this episode seems to think that he is a superhero for defeating "ManBearPig" and even wears a cape at the end.
The episode name is similar to the CatDog episode named "CatDogPig".
Heroes of Might and Magic:
When Al Gore is at the school telling the class about ManBearPig, right after he turns the page to show the sketch, a sound effect plays. (As if signifying danger or caution.) This sound effect comes from the game Heroes of Might and Magic II.
City Slickers 2:
The fake treasure in the Cave of the Winds is reminiscent of the "gold" in the 1994 film City Slickers II: The Legend of Curly's Gold.
Al Gore:
The Al Gore bashing in this episode is probably a response to Al Gore's upcoming movie, An Inconvenient Truth. South Park has frequently ripped on global warming, and Al Gore's "ManBearPig" speeches resemble his speeches in the movie's trailer.
This can be used as slang for the word serious.
Comfort Inn:
Al Gore's base of operations is a room at the Komfort Inn, a parody of Comfort Inn.

To change this, you'll need to create a 'forrest.properties' file in your project root, with the entry: project.skins-dir=src/skins There are a bunch of other project.* properties that must be defined if one's project deviates from the default Forrest layout.

Yes, but you've caught us halfway through two systems that means it can't be done the 'official' way (in the sitemap, we went from @skin@ tokens to {defaults:foo} parameters). The temporary hack is to: - copy xml-forrest/src/resources/conf/sitemap.xmap into your project's src/documentation directory, and replace all references to '{defaults:skin}' with '@skin@'. - Add the line 'project.skin=<my-skin>' to forrest.properties, where <my-skin> is the name of the skin directory.

Great experience
I saw the doctor for a reconstructive issue, not something cosmetic. He was running late and the first thing he did was sincerely apologize to me when he came into the consult room. He is a good listener, very courteous, did not talk down to me, offered me several options and took his time answering all of my questions and addressing my concerns. The staff was polite, attentive and accommodating. My only "criticism" is that the space needs some art work and bigger coffee tables in the waiting room!

Avoid at all costs
Had Dr. Miranda as the on call doctor for CPMC ER for a laceration above the eye sustained while playing basketball last fall. ER experience was professional and he did a good job on the eye.Unfortunately that is where the good experience ended. Found out afterwards that he was an out of network doctor (How did this happen and why was I not told this when I asked at CPMC that this would be covered?), and after several rounds with insurance was denied coverage.DOUBLE insult that Dr. Miranda's bill had multiple double charges, and grossly over inflated charges for a 30 minute procedure (bill was over $5,000) which was then sent to collections while I was still in process with insurance and state of CA. Blue Shield list price is $1500 for the same procedure.Ended up paying to collections as Dr. Miranda's office would not help on any fronts other than to punt me back to my insurance carrier (which they did not recognize or belong to). Even though several of the charges were clearly doubled and erroneous.Avoid at all costs. Medical care is painful enough without being extorted on the back side.

Worst dr. in the Bay Area
Dr. Miranda is one of the worst plastic surgeon in the Bay Area. He is so unexperienced (do not trust his web site) and uses his patients as guinea pigs. I got sucked in when I read about his teachings in Asia on his site and all....but I regret I let him perform plastic surgery on me. One of my regrets in life. So, do yourself a favor and avoid this dr. quack.

Nashua – In response to President Obama's release of the National Climate Assessment, Former State Senator and 2nd District Congressional candidate Gary Lambert released the following statement:
"While President Obama spends time promoting his job-killing energy policies, American families and businesses are suffering," said Lambert. "Speeches and interviews don't help lower a middle-class family's energy bill at the end of each month, they don't help them overcome the high cost of gas prices when trying to plan a family vacation this summer; and they don't help businesses create jobs and grow. If President Obama were serious about an all-of the-above national energy plan, he would approve the Keystone XL pipeline, he would end his war on coal-fired energy plants, and he would stop the EPA's quest for a national cap and trade program."

|Next chapter:
|Chapter 208: The Black Sapphire of Kalu
|Chapter 210: Incense of Forgetfulness
Flash comes to as deadly disintegrator sparks shower him. Fortunately in his haste to leave the room, Tarnak left the Nitron gun behind. Flash uses it to blast a hole in the wall and is able to escape.
The enraged Ming orders a search but Flash dons a Martian guard's uniform and uses this disguise to trick his way onto the aerodome platform where he turns a destroying ray onto the Nitron beam, managing to cause it serious damage before he is recaptured. Tarnak takes the black sapphire from him and places it into a special box made of neutrinium, which will neutralize its power.
Meanwhile, Prince Barin has arrived back at the Valley of Desolation with Queen Azura as his captive. The Clay King insists that Azura return the Clay People to their normal state or else she will be kept there until she herself turns into clay. But with the black sapphire now neutralized, Queen Azura is able to transport herself away in a puff of smoke. Reckoning that the restoration of Queen Azura's magic power is an indication that Flash must be in trouble, Zarkov and Barin take a Stratosled to the palace to rescue him.
Flash is taken before Ming, who vows that the Earthman will pay for his interference with his life. Flash is unconcerned by Ming's words; his job, which was to save the Earth by destroying the Nitron Lamp, is now done. Ming swears he'll not rest until the Earth is a useless cinder in space!
On Earth, the mysterious disturbances have now stopped. The world's top scientists meet once again and are agreed that the cessation of earthquakes, floods and hurricanes can only be the result of the actions of Flash Gordon and Doctor Zarkov.
On Mars, Ming tricks Azura into believing that Flash Gordon has hidden the black sapphire, whereas in reality the scheming Ming now has it safely in his own possession.
Barin and Zarkov arrive at the palace and jump Tarnak, forcing him to reveal that Flash is beng held in the Disintegrating Room. Before they can get there, Tarnak raises the alarm. As Zarkov and Barin try to break into the Disintegrating Room via the skylight, they are shot at by Martian soldiers. The both fall into the Disintegrating Room and, like the helpless Flash who is bound to a chair, find themselves at the mercy of the deadly disintegrating ray.
Recap card
Queen Azura, captured by / the Clay People, escapes by / means of her restored magic.
Returning to the palace, she / orders out the guard to / search for Flash.
Flash is taken prisoner / and thrown into the Dis- / integrating Room.
Barin and Zarkov, suspecting the dan- / ger confronting Flash, make their way / to the roof to save him.
- How does Flash know that the Black Sapphire would still be able to prevent Queen Azura from using her magic when she is miles away from it? Would he not have been better giving the black sapphire to Prince Barin, who was traveling with Azura?
- "Search every building on Mars if you have to, but bring me Flash Gordon!"
- "So Earthman, you thought that you could outwit the imperial Ming and Azura, Queen of Magic?"
- "You have interfered with my plans for the last time, Earthman."

The NFL is set to prove in the next weeks that you can't have a sea change without making some waves.
And the biggest splashes are happening in Oakland, Denver, Minnesota and Washington.
All are changing or thinking about changing quarterbacks. Now we find out which ones made the right decision.
THE HUDDLE: Ponder taking over Vikings
RAIDERS: Carson Palmer going to Oakland
On a day when Carson Palmer was traded to Oakland, the Minnesota Vikings named Christian Ponder their new starter over Donovan McNabb.
Old news but new beginning is Tim Tebow getting a start in Denver and still pending is whether John Beck is going to be the man in D.C.
Raiders coach Hue Jackson called getting Palmer "the greatest trade in football."
Do you agree with Jackson or does one of the other newbies have the best upside?
While we wait for the plays to be sent in, here is some good work by some good people that we might have missed while sleeping or wonder whether a couple of senators can get tobacco banned in Major League Baseball.

På vores rejse videre sydpå, brugte vi hotellet som en enkelt overnatning. Det kan vi varmt anbefale andre at gøre, da vi fik en meget fin modtagelse.
Forkert info om parkering. Det blev noget dyrere da der ikke var mulighed for at parkere på hotellet.
Excellent location, very good value for money, friendly staff - highly recommended
Clean & secure accomodation with helpful staff and free internet and Wifi Nothing to fault
The rooms were fairly comfortable, matched the price. The location was perfect. The bathroom (in the room) was small, not practical, it had no sewage drain on the floor, so spilled water couldn't leave (and it wasn't mopped during the day, although the trash bin was emptied). The internet infrastructure was slow (for the amount of people that tried to use it) and the wi-fi didn't work on the second floor. The breakfast was expensive for what it could offer (therefore we didn't eat there - fortunately great bakeries are available in the area).
Staff is very friendly and helpful, location is very close to the train station and the Dom.
Located near Dom, good and cheap breakfeast Parking is 10€
The rooms and bathrooms were extremely clean. You sleep in your own bed instead of a bunk bed. There's a full bar and the food at the restaurant is pretty good. The staff is really helpful and polite. Plus, the hostel is about a 5-10 minute walk from the train station in Cologne. There aren't too many bars or clubs located close to the hostel.
Great Location, good staff No room service so no room cleaning.
Everything was nice there. Nice space, nice rooms, nice people. There were two lounges (smokers & No smokers) with free wireless. Location is awesome, close to the central station and the Cathedral.

Kenyan butchers are happy to have eager hands to take useless bones off their hands, so they sell these unexpected craft materials to artisans for a small pittance.

5 things to know about San Antonio's largest budget proposal ever
Updated 11:55 am, Thursday, August 6, 2015
SAN ANTONIO — City Manager Sheryl Sculley presented on Thursday her $2.55 billion budget proposal for fiscal year 2016.
The spending blueprint is the largest in city history. The city's consolidated budget includes the general fund, along with several restricted funds -- such as solid waste and aviation. The plan is just that -- a roadmap on how the city will spend over the next year. But it's not set in stone. The City Council reviews it periodically throughout the year and makes needed adjustments.
The fiscal year begins Oct. 1 and the council will adopt the plan in mid-September.
See the slideshow above for 5 things to know about the budget or read ExpressNews.com for an in-depth look at the proposal.

Who Killed Hed Kandi Lounge?
We don't know who he is, but we bet he's sad Hed Kandi closed.
Hed Kandi Lounge was supposed to be South Beach's elite dance club, a classy refuge from Mansion across the street. You could go there and eat expensive foam -- um, molecular gastronomy -- and then dance to psychedelic Muzak -- um, house beats -- while sipping a $14 cocktail. Ecstasy not included.
Unfortunately, the club didn't work out that way. But it did make a lot of trial lawyers euphoric.
The club, located on Washington Avenue at 12th Street, was the brainchild of 32-year-old Panamanian promoter Juan Carlos Dominguez. Among the shareholders who bought in: Juan Carlos "Tito" Fernandez Tapias -- aspiring reality TV star and 26-year-old son of Fernando Fernandez Tapias, vice president of international soccer juggernaut Real Madrid.
"All he talks about is 'My father the billionaire,' " Dominguez mimics. "But Tito's from a third marriage. He doesn't have money; I have money. He's not liquid; I'm liquid."

As you might have guessed, relations between the two young Juan Carloses have soured.
The trouble began shortly after the grand opening in October 2008, when Ministry of Sound, the British nightclub and record label that owns the trademark Hed Kandi, sued for copyright infringement -- even though, Dominguez claims, he had arranged franchising rights.
After a prolonged battle in federal court, the club owners changed the venue's name to Fierce Angel. But business lagged, and after an ill-advised remodeling in summer 2009, the club's coffers dwindled perilously. Dominguez returned from a trip to Panama, he says, to find the locks changed, his office trashed, and his ownership share in the club he created lost through legal machinations. It was a "hostile takeover," Dominguez says.
Although Fernandez Tapias says "it's a legal thing," he implies that his former partner used club funds on personal expenses. "There was always money missing," he says. "Eventually, we asked, 'Where's that cash going?' "
Dominguez angrily denies that implication. "Where is the proof," he demands, "and why did he never take legal action?"
The club was sued by a construction manager named Roman Roman for not paying for the remodeling, and the suit was settled in April 2010. A month later, after being evicted from the space for not paying rent, the troubled club finally went bellyup, and today the two club kids blame each other. Promoter Dominguez claims he lost more than $730,000 in the debacle. And Fernandez Tapias, who also lost six figures, incurred the wrath of an angry soccer tycoon: "I had to ask my father for money again," he laments. "I just told him what happened, put my head down, and he was really angry at me."
There's some good news, though. Both Juan Carloses are too broke to sue each other. "If I were to start legal action, it would cost me $20,000," Fernandez Tapias says. "My family told me to move on and take it as a learning experience."

The Siege of Athens was a siege that was in late September. There is no clear evidence that it took place in late September. However, we do know that the Battle of Marathon took place in mid-September and it didn't take the Persians long to reach Athens. It was made by the Persian invaders after they won the infamous Battle of Marathon. They absolutely destroyed the capital city which once was Ancient Greece.
Today, what's left of Athens after the siege is rubble and evidence of the ancient civilisation. It is a place which thousands of tourists go each year. It was an estimate that over 500,000 people visited it last year alone.
Build Up to the Siege
Persia began an invasion of Greece after Greece aided the Ionic Rebels. Persia had the upper hand able to invade Greece. After many years of horrible war Persia and Greece fought the Battle of Marathon what historians consider Greece's last stand before falling to Persia.
A messenger who watched the battle hurried back to Athens to tell the terrible news: Greece has lost the Battle of Marathon and soon Persian troops will be at Athens. A few Greek politicians decided to escape from Athens and stay in the French Greek colony until the trouble died down. These politicians would eventually form New Greece.
Every able-bodied man now had the duty of defending Athens from the invaders.
The Early days of the Siege
On the 16th September 490 BC the Persians arrived at Athens expecting the city to be in chaos. They found about 1000 men defending Athens from the walls.
Morale decreases, Athens nearly falls
Athens Falls
A City in Ashes
Athens Today
Ever since the siege, the site of Athens hasn't been used. Due to the Persians not bothering to rebuild the city after the heavy siege, it has just remained rubble until the modern day.
In the middle of the 20th Century historians applied to dedicate what's left of Athens to historical research. The Greek government rejected several attempts, saying that it was a plan for Russia to get more information over the country, that would help them in a possible invasion. Finally in 1957, after years of trying, it became a historical research centre.
In 2015 the Ruins of Athens is a popular tourist resort. Over 500,000 tourists visited the site in 2014 and there's subject to be more in 2015. Most tourists who are interested in Greek or ancient history.

1974 railway strike in India
1974 railway strike in India was the strike by workers of Indian Railways in 1974. The 20 days strike by 17 lakh workers is the largest known strike.[1] [2][3][4]
The strike was held to demand a raise in pay scale, which had remained stagnant over many years, in spite of the fact that pay scales of other government owned entities had risen over the years. Further, since British time the Railways termed the work of the loco staff as "continuous", implying that workers would have to remain at work as long as the train ran on its trip, often for several days at a stretch especially on the goods trains. Independence did not change this. The spread of diesel engines and the consequent intensification of work in the Indian Railways since the 1960s created much resentment among the workers. The Railways, although government-owned, remained an organization in which the accepted worldwide standard of an eight-hour working day was violated with impunity. When the crafts unions raised the issue, they demanded a 12-hour working day for loco running staff.[3][4]
As President of the all India Railwaymen's Federation George Fernandes led the strike. The strike commenced on 8 May 1974. The strike was brutally suppressed by Indira Gandhi government with thousands being sent to jail and losing their jobs.In Chennai it was under C.Bala Krishnan and Sakthidasan. The strike was called off on 27 May 1974.[5]
