ProTrack by Myers
Acquire, schedule, monetize, and distribute content with greater efficiency than ever before. Learn what sets ProTrack, our broadcast management system apart.
One System. Total Control.
Industry Leaders Use ProTrack
Software Integrations Simplified.
ProTrack leverages the power of software integrations to bring forward valuable insight to decision-makers and drive workflows across technical systems, enabling them to work as a coordinated whole.
ProTrack is easy to adopt and no other broadcast management solution integrates as easily with your existing systems. Myers has developed relationships with nearly all of the vendors that have a stake in content acquisition, media management and distribution.
Educational Broadcaster, Montgomery College Television (MCTV), Readies for Multi-Channel Operation with Myers' ProTrack
Myers, a leading developer of broadcast management software, announces Montgomery College Television (MCTV) as the latest educational broadcaster to deploy their broadcast management system, ProTrack. Being an independent broadcaster that produces their own content, MCTV wanted to advance the efficiency of their workflow in order to do more with less. By implementing ProTrack, MCTV is better positioned to manage multi-channel operations and benefit from the economy of scale, when they launch their new HD channel later this year.
Customer Focus: Gospel Broadcasting Network (GBN)
The Gospel Broadcasting Network (GBN), an American Christian satellite broadcast network, had reached a point where it become necessary for them to move away from its existing in-house system processes and implement a fully integrated broadcast management solution that could provide complete control over its produced and acquired content. GBN found the solution they were looking for with ProTrack, as it offered a centralized system for metadata, scheduling and traffic.
Partnership Spotlight
Partnership Spotlight: Pebble Beach Systems
Myers, a leading developer of broadcast management software, and Pebble Beach Systems, a leader in automation, channel-in–a-box, and integrated channel technology, have partnered to deploy a Broadcast Exchange Format (BXF) integrated solution to their shared customer base. The BXF integration, a SMPTE standard for data exchange in the broadcasting industry, provides mutual Myers and Pebble Beach Systems clients with more seamless and automated workflows between Traffic and Automation.

This is AMAZING! You should totally continue...where will the story go?
| Bloodly Romance chapter 10 . 6/14/2012
I love this story! Does anyone know who is now writing it? :)
| bourgeoicheese chapter 10 . 3/5/2012
What happened that you can't post your story anymore? Just got out of the wonderful addiction that is Hetalia?
And by the way, teenytinybiscuit did NOT post the rest of the story. D:
So now, I'm just all sad becuz I have read a story that will never be complete. D':
But just in case... *clicks follow story option*
| Cheshire Stripe chapter 10 . 9/21/2011
I found this story very fascinating and hope to find the where the new story is!
| Night13 chapter 9 . 11/19/2010
What you're quitting it no I really did like it. I liked having dark romance for this pairing. Oh well choose wisely who will be the new author though _
| Night13 chapter 8 . 11/19/2010
Lol messy job that Belatus did since Alfred doesn't even know who did that to him. _
| Night13 chapter 7 . 11/19/2010
Not "Russia is mine cause it could be reffering to him taking claim of Russia. I'd probobaly go eith making the message Russian it would be more symbolic although if he doesn't know any Russian the there wouldn't be much meaning into it.
| Night13 chapter 6 . 11/19/2010
Man Belarus is such a batch. Russia should have done something to her to at least stop her from being so crazy, oh well. Poor Canada had to see what happened to China. Francis being serious for once is a surprise. _
| Night13 chapter 5 . 11/19/2010
Is Belarous seriously that scary to scare Russia? O.O Thought Russia was going to do something to her when she didn't shut up though. _
| Night13 chapter 4 . 11/19/2010
Lol i knew he would do something to China, but i got a question wouldn't a country only be able to die if its own land was destroyed or all its citizens died? Just wondering. Poor Alfred must be confused as to why he fainted _
| Night13 chapter 3 . 11/19/2010
How come Alfred seems so oblivious in most of the fics i have read? . Oh well it goes with the story. Wonder what Russia will do to China.
| Night13 chapter 2 . 11/19/2010
A fair match, didn't think he would go to beat Alfred by that way i was thinking more on him using something against him to weaken him. The last sentence reminded me of Light with his ideas from Death Note. _
| Night13 chapter 1 . 11/19/2010
Kinda sounds like dark type of romance. _
| Peirl chapter 9 . 11/10/2010
Ah, you won't be writing anymore...that's sad. I would like to see more. I bet that you have a wonderful storyline and I would be glad to read it.
| BelarusLockhart1827 chapter 10 . 11/10/2010
Its such a shame you will not be finishing it. (Sigh) hopefully the new author will keep like you did. I'll probably not continue the story. Well maybe sometime in the future you'll write another. Well bye bye

Help Us: Do these Pornstars appear in this video?
Pornstar Name:
All Comments (28)
they're not fucking, these girls are making love and i think is beautiful
This is the BEST video I have ever seen, hands down. I love seeing women make love!
the look on her face is worth a million dollars
So nice to see two women who are so in tune with each other. The girl with the strapon is just so sensitive and skilled in the way she fucks her lover. The girl being fucked enjoys it so much. So much more than with a man.
The girl with the strap on is really passionate. I've seen her before in a scene with tracy, she made her cum so many times. Brandy is really great. I can tell she enjoys making women have orgasms. For me, eufrat is number 1 and brandy is number 2. Also, does anyone know Brandy's full name? It's hard searching for her on here. :-/
My ex's never let me fuk them with a strap-on,I so want to try it! Love how Gina knows wen her lover is guns cum she speeds up rydin her in time with brandy's breathing so sexy-nice to c a girl who can actually use a strap proply totally hot
What is the full name in brandy's
Can ѕoмeone lιcĸ мy pυѕѕy and ғυcĸ мe really нard wιтнoυт ѕтoppιng ғυcĸ мee and I нave вιg вooвѕ and ѕo ѕeхy and wanт тo нave ѕeх rιgнт now
Made me cum
My god this is one of the best video's I have seen in a little time. That one totally dominated the one from the beginning and I loved watching it. From when she went down on her making her to cum that nice creamy white cum. Than got into diffent postions fucking her. Great job ladies.
Qui veux baissée
just dedicated a cumshot!
qui est cette actrice avec le collant noir?????????
Très sensuel aimerais y être
Im soo wet soo sexy
I'm cumming
they do this because they love cock and pussies. They should have cocks glud on so that they can fuck each other.
Who is the lingerie black girl?
So much sexyness
Gina has one fine pussy that salamander slithered out of !
I love it when both mates are happy and love to fuck with their partner
This one is my new favorite. Nice to see some actual girl loving girls who know what to to do with other. She sure knows how to use that dick

Computational Indistinguishability Logic
Computational Indistinguishability Logic (CIL) is logic for reasoning about cryptographic primitives in computational models. It captures reasoning patterns that are common in provable security, such as simulations and reductions. CIL is sound for the standard model, but also supports reasoning in the random oracle and other idealized models. The authors illustrate the benefits of CIL by formally proving the security of the Probabilistic Signature Scheme (PSS).Cryptography plays a central role in the design of secure and reliable systems. Nevertheless, designing secure cryptographic schemes is notoriously hard.

Could you imagine "more me time"? It almost seems impossible sometimes, right? Well, it doesn't have to be. Health and wellness go beyond stress relief.
Having a Massage Envy membership means having easy access to massages, spa facials, Murad® products and more at hundreds of locations nationwide. Now you can enjoy less stress, more energy and improved wellness on your schedule. Best of all, the benefits of spa facial treatments and massages are cumulative. So the more you go, the healthier you feel.
Massage Envy Spas are a nationwide franchise offering an extensive range of therapeutic services including massages and facials. The Massage Envy Membership Package is really one of the best ways to make sure you schedule some monthly "me time." The monthly membership dues are $69.99, which includes a choice of a customized monthly massage OR a Murad Healthy Skin Facial (for $10 extra), along with a myriad of other perks.
I was lucky to pay a visit to the Massage Envy in Clarendon last weekend for a relaxing, restorative deep tissue massage treatment with Yadira.
The moment I walked thru the door, the stress that I felt from the entire week slowly began to melt away. Every single detail of the treatment was ironed out and carefully considered including my preference of essential oils for the aromatherapy portion of the session. Everything about this Massage Envy was like being in a luxurious spa.
I was impressed with the cleanliness of the spa and the professionalism of the staff during my entire experience. Upon checking in, I was given a few forms to fill out, with questions that would assist my massage therapist as to what areas needed more attention and also inform her of any sensitivies, allergies or health problems I might have. I was also able to provide her with what type of pressure I wanted (soft, relaxing, or deep tissue).
From that point, I was seated in a more intimate wait area. The biggest difference between Massage Envy and more luxurious spas is that you're not getting a fluffy robe, sauna, steam room or even a semi-private changing room. You're expected to change in the same room that you get massaged in. The idea is to come here to keep on the path for personal wellness – take an hour or so out of your day, get recharged, and then, well – head home. I think this concept is awesome!
After getting situated in my massage room, and the lights and music were turned down, I was blissfully unaware of anything going on around me. My therapist, Yadira placed hot towels on my problem areas (my neck, shoulders and upper back) and began her magic. This was possibly the deepest tissue massage I've had to date! And although it was intense, I was in total bliss! This may sound cliché, but I felt healed from the inside out. I realized then that I needed to do this more often!
To get a true breather this summer, a trip your local Massage Envy is a must. Also, to give you an opportunity to get a true sense of Massage Envy is all about, I'm offering an Introductory One Hour Massage (Gift Card) to one lucky winner!
To enter, Visit my Facebook Page at Facebook.com/likeclarendonmoms and leave a comment there letting me know why you'd like a massage this summer! This contest is open to the US and will close at 11:59 PM on Tuesday, August 2, 2016. I will draw the winner by Rafflecopter, and they will have 48 hours to respond to the email notification that they won.
{Thank-you to Massage Envy for partnering on this post!}

- [Voiceover] Hi, I'm Justin Seeley, and I wanna welcome you to Illustrator CS6 New Features. Illustrator is one of my favorite Creative Suite applications, and in this course I'll be showing you all of the new and exciting things that Adobe has included in this latest release. We'll start off by taking a look at Illustrator's all-new user interface. That's right, the UI has been completely redone in Illustrator CS6 and so have the panels. Next we'll explore the all-new pattern creation tools in Illustrator. This is going to be a huge time saver for those of you who need to create seamless tiles for web backgrounds or any other project.
My favorite new feature has to be the revamped image trace. This feature allows you to transform bitmap images into scalable vector artwork. We'll also cover other various performance and file management upgrades that Adobe has made to Illustrator, as well as a small but cool feature that allows you to add gradients to strokes. I'm excited to show you all these new things, so if you're ready, let's get started with our look at Illustrator CS6 New Features.

REPORT: Suspects Are Brothers, Chechen Descent, From Kyrgyzstan, Moved to US in Early 2000's, Appear To Be Islamic... [Updated]Chris | InformationLiberation

Via NBC News:
With a bomb strapped to his chest, one of the Boston Marathon suspects was killed early Friday after he and his accomplice brother robbed a 7-Eleven, shot a police officer to death, carjacked an SUV and hurled explosives in an extraordinary firefight with law enforcement, authorities told NBC News.
The second suspect — the one in the white hat in photos released by the FBI — was on the loose. Gov. Deval Patrick ordered the entire city of Boston and some suburbs to stay inside during what he called a "massive manhunt," and police began a house-to-house search. Boston shut down its buses and subway system.
The suspects are brothers of Chechen origin with the last name Tsarnaev, law enforcement officials told NBC News. The suspect at large, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, is 19, was born in Kyrgyzstan and has a Massachusetts driver's license, they said. The dead suspect was identified as Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, born in Russia.
Tamerlan Tsarnaev was run over by a vehicle during the firefight, law enforcement officials told NBC News. Law enforcement officials also told NBC News that the brothers entered the United States with family in 2002 or 2003, and that Tamerlan Tsarnaev became a legal permanent resident in 2007.

The use of microstructures as sensors, motors, gears, levers and movable joints in integrated circuits is becoming increasingly common. In the automotive industry, microstructure sensors capable of sensing mechanical variables such as acceleration are being used widely in the construction of anti-lock brake systems. The silicon diaphragm pressure gauge, a microstructure useful in monitoring fluid flow, is presently manufactured in large quantities. Microchemical sensors are expected to have wide spread application in demanding environments where small amounts of a chemical must be sensed and where conventional sensing devices are too large.
Along with the increasing demand for microstructures, there is also a demand for ever smaller microstructures. Although at present microstructures may be characterized by dimensions of upwards of 1000 μm (1000 microns) and as small as 1 μm or smaller, as industry moves toward ever smaller geometries, it is expected that the size of microstructures will continue to shrink.
With the development of microstructures and ever more intricate micromachines, new engineering problems arise that are unique to the microsizes involved. One such common and costly problem in the micromachining industry is stiction, which can occur during the release of free-standing microstructures by removing sacrificial layers used to support the free-standing microstructures when they are being constructed. Typically, sacrificial materials such as silicon dioxide are removed in a so called `wet release method` by use of an aqueous hydrogen fluoride solution. Stiction occurs when liquid, such as aqueous hydrogen fluoride or rinse solutions, comes into contact with microstructures causing the microstructures to stick to one another or to the substrate. This can occur either during or after the release process. Moreover, this phenomena is not limited to semiconductor substrates but may occur on other substrates as well.
Solutions to the problem of stiction include the use of micromechanical temporary supports, sublimation of the final liquid by plasma ashing, removing the final liquid through the supercritical state, the use of low surface tension liquids and photon assisted release methods. An example of the use of micromechanical temporary supports may be found in U.S. Pat. No. 5,258,097 to Mastrangelo wherein temporary posts or columns are erected to support the microstructure. Unfortunately, techniques such as this add additional costs to the fabrication of chips; as the desired structures become increasingly intricate, the design of dry release methods will become more complex and expensive. Moreover, as with all of these release techniques, stiction can recur should a subsequent process step introduce moisture into the system once the structure has been released.
Currently, the process of unsticking stuck structures is time consuming and laborious. Stuck structures are freed by physically manipulating the structures with a probe. Because of the size of the structures, this process must be carried out under a microscope. Accordingly, there is a need in the art for a novel method of freeing stuck microstructures which avoids the necessity of unsticking the individual structures one-at-a-time in a painstaking process.
The present invention offers a method for eliminating stiction by cooling the microstructure and subjecting it to a force. One such method involves the use of cryogenic aerosols. Cryogenic aerosol technology has been developed as a cleaning means for substrates. U.S. Pat. No. 4,747,421 to Hayashi describes an apparatus for cleaning substrates using carbon dioxide aerosol particles. U.S. Pat. No. 5,294,261 to McDermott et al., the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference, discloses a method for cleaning microelectronic surfaces using an aerosol of at least substantially solid argon or nitrogen particles. Copending US application, titled "Treating Substrates by Producing and Controlling a Cryogenic Aerosol" of Patrin et al., filed contemporaneously with the present application, and assigned to the same assignee, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference, discloses an improved method for forming a cryogenic aerosol at low chamber pressure. U.S. Pat. No. 5,378,312 to Gifford et al., the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference, discloses a method of fabricating a semiconductor structure which includes the use of a cryogenic jet stream for the removal of films from the surface of the semiconductor. The present invention, in one embodiment, applies the technology of cryogenic aerosols to the problem of stiction with surprisingly good results.
The present invention is directed to a method for reducing and eliminating stiction in microstructures. In one embodiment, stuck microstructures are released through a process using an impinging stream of a cryogenic aerosol. A liquid, gaseous or combination of liquid and gaseous stream is expanded, forming at least substantially solid gas particles in the stream. The resulting cryogenic aerosol is directed at the surface of the microstructure and applied to the entire substrate.

FIG. 2 is a side view of FIG. 1.
FIG. 3 depicts the wafer of FIG. 1, following treatment with deionized water, with microstructures exhibiting lateral stiction
FIG. 4 depicts a partial perspective view of FIG. 3.
FIG. 5 depicts a side view of the wafer of FIG. 1, following treatment with deionized water, with microstructures exhibiting vertical stiction.
FIG. 6 depicts a schematic representation of the apparatus used in the present invention.
One of the major issues in the production of microstructures is process induced stiction of highly compliant or otherwise moveable microstructures. Stiction is often caused by capillary forces that arise when liquids come into contact with the microstructures during the manufacturing process. These liquids when dried may also leave behind thin films with adhesive characteristics which hold the microstructures together.
Examples of stiction include, but are not limited to adjacent microstructures sticking to one another, microstructures sticking to substrate surfaces and moveable microstructures such as wheels, rotors and gears freezing in place. FIGS. 1-5 illustrate the problem of stiction between two adjacent freestanding beams. FIG. 1 depicts a top view of part of a sensor containing many freestanding beams which are free of stiction. The two beams 41 shown in FIG. 1 are not subject to stiction. FIG. 2 is a side view of the beams showing the beams 41 as freestanding, not subject to vertical stiction-stiction to the underlying substrate 43. FIG. 3 depicts a top view of the two adjacent freestanding sensors following wet treatment of the device. The beams 41 are now subject to lateral stiction having joined together at the ends. FIG. 4 is a partial perspective view of the area subject to stiction. FIG. 5 depicts a side view of a sensor on a wafer with the sensor exhibiting vertical stiction.
The present invention describes a method for freeing stuck areas of a microstructure such as a sensor, motor, gear, lever, movable joint, mirror or any other type of microstructure subject to stiction in which the area subject to stiction is subjected to a force in order to free the structure. The method is applied subsequent to any stiction causing process steps and may be used to treat multiple substrates simultaneously.
In the preferred embodiment of the invention, a cryogenic aerosol is directed from a nozzle at an area of a microstructure subject to stiction in order to free the microstructure. The cryogenic aerosol is formed by delivering gas and/or liquid to the nozzle. Upon expelling the mixture from the nozzle, the cryogenic aerosol is formed. The cryogenic aerosol contains substantially solid particles and/or liquid particles in a gaseous stream. The term "particles" as used herein shall refer to droplets comprised of liquid and/or solid generally of about 0.01 to about 100 microns in diameter or larger. The particles may further be partially solid or partially liquid Typically, cryogenic aerosols are formed from chemicals such as argon, nitrogen, carbon dioxide and mixtures thereof. Other inert chemicals may be used as well. Without being bound by theory, the small liquid droplets may be formed from larger droplets of cryogen that are atomized by high pressure gas that expands from the orifices of a nozzle into a lower pressure process chamber. Particles so formed are generally of about one tenth to one-hundred microns although they may be as small one one-hundredth of a micron or they may be larger than one hundred microns in diameter.
In the preferred embodiment an apparatus as depicted in FIG. 6 is used to treat the microstructure. Referring to FIG. 6, the microstructure 12 is mounted on a movable chuck 14, which is at ambient or heated temperature. The chuck 14 functionally supports the object to be treated. The chuck includes the appropriate slide or glide mechanism or turntable. A rotatably adjustable nozzle 18, from which the cryogenic aerosol emanates, is supported within the process chamber 16. Nozzle 18 is connected with a supply line 26, which itself may be connected further with discreet supply lines 28 and 30 connected with the actual gas or liquid supplies of argon, nitrogen or the like, depending on the specific process. Further processing steps, such as gas cooling, may take place within the supply line 26, again, depending on the specific process, so that the nozzle 18 expels the desired cryogenic aerosol. The inside of the process chamber 16 can, optionally, be connected further with either a vacuum device or a pressurizing device for selectively controlling the desired pressure within the process chamber 16 based on the specific process parameters. A vacuum device (not shown) can be connected through the exhaust duct 20.
To control the fluid dynamics within the process chamber 16, a flow separator comprising a baffle plate 34 is connected to an end of the moveable chuck 14 and extending into the exhaust duct 20. Additionally, a shroud 36 is provided within the process chamber 16 and comprises a plate connected to the process chamber 16, such as its upper wall, for controlling flow around the nozzle. The controlling of the fluid dynamics within the process chamber 16 by the baffle plate 34 and the shroud 36 are more fully described in copending U.S. application Ser. No. 08/712,342, filed Sept. 11, 1996 and incorporated herein by reference.
Also shown in FIG. 6, a curtain gas, preferably an inert gas such as nitrogen, can be introduced into the process chamber 16 via one or more supply conduits 38. Although not necessary, such curtain gas is preferably introduced at a location opposite the exhaust in the process chamber 16. The curtain gas may be used to compensate or make-up for slight pressure deviations within the process chamber caused by instabilities in the nozzle and pressure controls allowing for the overall positive flow across the chamber. Conventional supply techniques may be used.
In one embodiment, an argon/nitrogen mixture is filtered free of any contaminating particles and cooled to a temperature at or near its liquification point in a heat exchanger. Following the cooling operation, the argon/nitrogen mixture is a combination of gas and liquid.
In another embodiment, an argon/nitrogen mixture is filtered free of any contaminant particles and pre-cooled to a temperature slightly above its liquification point. Following the pre-cooling operation, the argon/nitrogen mixture is gas. The pre-cooling operation permits additional purification by allowing for partial condensation and removal of any remaining trace impurities onto the heat exchanger walls. Pre-cooling may be combined with simultaneous removal of trace impurities using a molecular sieve or catalytic impurities removal device or any other suitable impurities filter upstream of the heat exchanger. The argon/nitrogen mixture may then be fed into a second heat exchanger for the purpose of further cooling the mixture near to the point of liquification. Such methods for removing trace molecular impurities from inert gases are well known in the field. The pressure of the argon/nitrogen mixture is typically held in the range of 2.4�105 Pascal to 4.8�106 Pascal, preferably 2.4�105 Pascal to 7.8�105 Pascal. The temperature of the mixture is typically in the range of from about -200� C. (73.15 K) to about -120� C. (153.15 K) and preferably from about -200� C. (73.15 K) to about -150� C. (123.15 K). The nitrogen flow rate is between 0 and 600 standard liters per minute (slpm), preferably 100-200 slpm, and the argon flow rate is between 0 and 600 slpm, preferably 300-600 slpm.
The mixture, whether gas, liquid or a mixture of both, is then expanded from a nozzle 18 from a pressure of approximately 2.4�105 Pascal to 4.8�106 Pascal, preferably 2.4�105 Pascal to 7.8�105 Pascal, to a lower pressure, and a temperature at or near the liquification point of the argon/nitrogen mixture to form at least substantially solid particles of the mixture with gaseous argon and/or nitrogen. Preferably, the process chamber is maintained at a pressure 1.01�105 Pascal or less, more preferably at a pressure 1.6�104 Pascal or less and most preferably at a pressure 1.2�104 Pascal or less. The nozzle is rotatable and/or translatable toward or away from the microstructure to be treated as described in copending application Ser. No. 08/773,489 filed Dec. 23, 1996 and previously incorporated herein by reference.
The nozzle and the cryogenic aerosol emanating from the nozzle, are directed at the substrate at an angle between substantially parallel and perpendicular, suitably at an inclined angle between 5� and 90�, more preferably at an angle between 30� and 60� toward the surface of the substrate containing the microstructure. An angle of 0� denotes directing the cryogenic aerosol perpendicular to the substrate while an angle of 90� denotes directing the cryogenic aerosol parallel to the substrate. One skilled in the art will recognize that the cryogenic aerosol will likely diverge from the nozzle such that a steady single stream of particles will not necessarily be directed at a microstructure. Rather, the aerosol itself may diverge from the nozzle in a range from a 1� to 180� angle. The nozzle is typically at a vertical distance of approximately several millimeters to several centimeters above the microstructure.
Depending on the choice of nozzle and/or chamber design, multiple substrates may be treated simultaneously.
One device capable of forming such a cryogenic aerosol and so treating microstructures subject to stiction is an ARIES™ cryogenic aerosol tool, supplied by FSI International, Inc. Chaska, Minn., and configured with the above described process chamber and nozzle.
A number of parameters will affect the efficacy of the process. First, the choice of chemical or chemicals is preferably limited to chemicals which are unreactive with the substrate or any microstructures or microdevices on the substrate. Preferably, nitrogen, argon or mixtures thereof are used. A preferred embodiment of the present invention uses an at least substantially solid argon/nitrogen particle-containing aerosol to eliminate stiction in microstructures. Argon and nitrogen, inert chemicals, are preferred so as not to harm the substrates on which the microstructures are located or any microstructures on the substrate. Argon or nitrogen can be used alone or mixed in the present invention, preferably argon and nitrogen will be in the ratio in the range of 5:1 to 1:1 by volume. The present method is not, however, limited to the use of argon/nitrogen mixtures. Argon or nitrogen may be used exclusively. Other chemicals that may be used include carbon dioxide, krypton, xenon, neon, helium, chlorofluorohydrocarbons, inert hydrocarbons, and combinations thereof with each other or with argon and/or nitrogen.
The size of the particles comprising the cryogenic aerosol will desirably be controlled so as to avoid damaging the microstructure. Particles that are excessively large may cause pitting or other damage to the microstructure. Particles that are too small may prove ineffective in eliminating stiction. Of course, the lower limit of particle size will depend on the size of the microstructure. A suitable particle size range is from 0.01-100 μm.
Additionally, the direction of the cryogenic aerosol must be chosen to eliminate stiction and reduce damage to the microstructures. The specific orientation of the microstructure relative to the flow of the cryogenic aerosol will depend on the nature of the microstructure and nearby microstructures.
The microstructure may be held stationary and the nozzle directing the flow moved. However, in a preferred embodiment the microstructure is translated through the flow of the cryogenic aerosol at a uniform rate of 0.2 cm/sec to 15 cm/sec, preferably at a rate of 2 cm/sec to 10 cm/sec, and most preferably at 2 cm/sec to 5 cm/sec through the chamber, thereby ensuring that the entire stuck structure is subject to the impinging cryogenic aerosol. Suitably two or more passes under the cryogenic aerosol are made by the chuck. It should be noted that the chuck speed and the number of passes may be varied to suit the particular microstructure. Thus, the substrate may be subjected to additional passes under the cryogenic aerosol as necessary to eliminate the stiction. A rotatable chuck may also be used to orient the microstructure in the path of the cryogenic aerosol.
The velocity of the particles in the cryogenic aerosol should be sufficient to allow the aerosol to penetrate any gas boundary layer that might exist on the substrate. Yet, the velocity must not be so high as to initiate etching of the substrate or damage the microstructure. A suitable particle velocity is in the range of 10-100 meters per second.
The invention is illustrated by the following non-limiting example.
A sensor comprising microstructures free of stiction was treated with deionized water to induce stiction. The sensor prior to water treatment, when viewed from the top looked similar to the sensor shown in FIG. 1. The two adjacent polysilicon beams 41 of 11 μm thick and 225 and 250 μm in length are not touching each other. FIG. 2 is a side view of the beams 41 showing the beams to be freestanding, not subject to stiction to the underlying substrate 43. Following treatment with water, the beams, subject to lateral stiction, resembled those depicted in FIGS. 3 and 4. The substrate was subjected to two passes under a cryogenic aerosol consisting of argon and nitrogen in the ARIES™ tool with operating parameters as follows: argon flow: 340 standard liters per minute (slpm), nitrogen: 170 slpm, carrier nitrogen: 100 slpm, chuck speed: 2.25 cm/sec, chuck temperature: 20� C., chamber pressure: 1.6�104 Pascal. Following treatment with the cryogenic aerosol, the beams again resemble those shown in FIG. 1.
Those skilled in the art will recognize that the process of the invention will also be useful in applications other than those specifically identified herein and such other applications should be considered to be within the scope of the patent granted hereon.

Smog contributed to crash, death of Spanish Fork man, police say
SPANISH FORK — Police say dense smog was the main contributing factor in a fatal traffic accident on U.S. 6 Thursday.
Nathan Hales, 48, of Spanish Fork, attempted to make a left turn at the intersection of 2550 East and U.S. 6 about 8:15 a.m., when he was struck by a semitrailer truck hauling a flatbed loaded with steel that ran a red light, according to Spanish Fork police.
Hales, who was declared dead at the scene, is the first cousin of Spanish Fork Police Chief Steven Adams. He is survived by his wife and five children.
The driver of the semitruck, a 59-year-old Orem man, told investigators that he slowed down as he approached the intersection due to the dense visibility, but he entered it sooner than he was anticipating.
Police estimate visibility was about 100 feet at the time of the accident.
The Utah Highway Patrol is investigating the crash due to the victim's relation to the police department. Officials had not determined Thursday whether charges would be filed against the truck driver.

The epic graphic novel by Frank Miller (Sin City) assaults the screen with the blood, thunder and awe of its ferocious visual style faithfully recreated in an intense blend of live-action and CGI animation. Retelling the ancient Battle of Thermopylae, it depicts the titanic clash in which King Leonidas (Gerard Butler) and 300 Spartans fought to the death against Xerxes (Rodrigo Santoro) and his massive Persian army. Experience history at swordpoint. And moviemaking with a cutting edge.]]>

Gerard Butler (Phantom of the Opera, Dear Frankie, etc.) adds yet another impressive and wildly different character to his arsenal of screen roles. As Leonidas, King of Sparta, Butler is, from his pigtail to his muscled, sandled feet, every inch a king; a true leader of men. His passion and intensity is matched by a splendid performance by Lena Headey as his wife, Queen Gorgo. Though a dutiful wife and a woman in an age when being such was near equal to slave status, she is, in her way, as bold and fearless as her husband/King. Dominic West is properly evil and oily as the traitor Theron and he's as nasty and duplicitous a villain as one can hope for. Rodrigo Santoro as a larger-than-life Xerxes is both comical and fearfully creepy equal parts drag queen and wanna be god. Behind all the glitzy piercings and bling, he is little more than self-inflated egotistical child.
While there is blood and gore aplenty, the film also happens to be emotionally satisfying and I found myself with tears welling up in my eyes more than a few times, as well as wanting to raise my fist in the air along with the jacked-up Spartans!Read more ›
And the adaptation of "300" is a stunning one -- literally stunning, since it bombards the viewer with larger-than-life characters, smashing visuals and tight direction. It goes a bit too fast for its own good, but it's a truly epic film that takes the historical war movie to another level -- all the more so because it actually happened.
As the introduction tells us, the Spartans were the ultimate warrior people. Babies were inspected for weakness or faults, and killed if they had any; as they were growing up, they were taught and toughened by a savage regimen. Their only true hope was to "die beautifully" for their land.
A Persian messenger arrives, telling King Leonidas (Gerard Butler) that the god-king Xerxes (Rodrigo Santoro) wants the Spartans to bow to him. Leonidas' response: shove the Persians into a pit. But before he can go to war, he must consult the corrupt priesthood of Ephors and their beautiful Oracle. She predicts that Sparta will fall and the gods forbid war at the approach of the Carneaian festival -- courtesy of a hefty bribe from a Spartan traitor.
So Leonidas takes out three hundred of his best men, along with their nervy Arcadian allies, and begin trouncing the Persians. But they are being sabotaged, both by a hunchbacked outcast and by a treacherous councilor, whom Queen Gorgo (Lena Headey) is battling. And so at Thermopylae, Leonidas prepares for a final battle against the monstrous Persian Army -- knowing that their story of freedom will live on.Read more ›
Not being much of a history buff, the only famous last stands I can instantly come up with are the Battles of the Alamo, of the Little Big Horn, and of Thermopylae (I guess I could also throw in Game 7 between the Lakers and the Blazers, 2000). Of these, the legendary Battle of Thermopylae is the most dramatic and is the mother of all last stands. I first heard about the Battle of Thermopylae (480BC) and the 300 Spartans way back when I was in high school, and I thought it a nifty story from the very first. A few years ago, I read Frank Miller's graphic novel 300 and enjoyed it tremendously, not caring at all that he altered things here and there as he opted instead to focus on the story's artistry, its sense of grandeur, and its mythological aspects. The filmmakers, make no mistake, take their cue from Mr. Miller. Remnants of historical facts are still somewhat represented under the film's glossy veneer but with some tweaking. You just have to see past the somewhat ridiculous parade of grotesque LORD OF THE RINGS-like creatures which Xerxes and director Zack Snyder send out.Read more ›

CHP Help Coming to Parents of Newborns January 1
Last week, The Atlantic published an article entitled "The Unconscionable Difficulty of Getting Health Insurance for a Newborn." The article tells the story of contributing writer Ester Bloom and her difficulties getting immediate Child Health Plus (CHP) insurance coverage for her newborn son. Coverage for Bloom's son did not begin until six weeks after his birth, and in the interim she instead had to pay for much more expensive individual coverage through the Marketplace.
However, the original article neglected to mention the passage of Bill S4745/A7155 in December of 2015, which allows babies born into low and middle-income families eligible for Child Health Plus from the day they are born. Under this law, which takes effect January 1, 2017, parents who apply before the baby is born, or within 60 days of birth, will have CHP coverage for the newborn from the date of birth. Those who submit an application more than 60 days after the birth will be covered from the date of application. This law addresses the 45 day gap between parent application and newborn enrollment in CHP that Bloom describes in the article. For more details please see HCFANY's original blog post from December 28, 2015.
We were excited to see a correction published on June 21, which included information about the law and how it will improve coverage for newborns under CHP.
This article also highlights the many challenges that consumers face when navigating the health insurance system as well as the importance of the trained assistance that health care Navigators, Certified Application Counselors, and Community Health Advocates can provide. New York State has been a leader in offering consumer assistance through these programs.
Parents who would like to enroll a child in CHP can do so through the New York State of Health Marketplace or by connecting to the Community Service Society Navigator Network at (888) 614-5400 or through their website.
Hospitals have been consolidating at increased rates over the last five years. Merger and acquisition transactions grew from 66 transactions in 2010 to 112 in 2015. Earlier this month, the MergerWatch Project released the results of a national survey, which concluded that current state hospital oversight programs are inadequate to protect consumers' access to needed health care services in their own communities.
By analyzing current Certificate of Need (CON) laws for hospital oversight, MergerWatch found that only 35 states and the District of Columbia actually have a Certificate of Need Program in place. California has a similar procedure through the Office of the Attorney General. In states that do have CON Programs in place, the majority do not require CON review for affiliations that do not involve formal sale, purchase, or lease or for hospital closures.
These less formal affiliations can still lead to a loss of access to critical health care services for consumers. In Sierra Vista, Arizona, for example, women lost access to many reproductive health services, including tubal ligation, when a nearby secular hospital joined a Catholic hospital system in 2010. Women in need of such services are sent to the nearest non-religious hospital, which is 80 miles away.
MergerWatch also developed a grading system based on whether a state's hospital oversight program meets certain criteria including when CON review is required, CON review standards, and effective engagement with affected consumers and the public. Under this grading system only six states receive an A or A-. New York State receives a B grade overall.
Many existing CON Programs are not consumer friendly and make it difficult for consumers to access material information about hospital transactions and how they will impact their access to health care. Notably, only nine states require consumer representation on the CON reviewing body, and only six states require a separate public hearing for each CON application.
The final section of the report outlines model policies for state oversight of hospital transactions and action steps for advocates to take ensure that consumer interests are protected.

Guest blog by Caroline Davidson, LGBT Outreach Intern for Raising Women's Voices-NY. LGBT health coverage and care have improved in recent years, but a surprising number of individuals still are unaware or unsure of how to apply for coverage. Once insured, LGBT people can have trouble finding LGBT-competent providers, and can encounter other roadblocks and frustrating delays using their health plans to get the care they need.
To address this need, Raising Women's Voices-NY (as co-chair of the HCFANY LGBT Task Force) has developed an LGBT outreach team called REACHLGBT. It's dedicated to meeting LGBT individuals where they're at – to listen to their needs, get them referrals and hear their stories to understand needed policy changes. The outreach team has been attending LGBT- and youth-focused events, including Queens Pride and Brooklyn Pride. You can find Team Member Jacob Barela at Harlem Pride this Saturday, June 25, from noon to 6 p.m. The event is taking place in Jackie Robinson Park (entrance is at 148th and Bradhurst Avenue). The team will also be at the ROAR youth event next Wednesday, June 29, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at Manhattan's LGBT Center, 208 West 13th Street.
Here are some of the key messages the REACHLGBT outreach team members are sharing:
- Health plans may NOT…
–discriminate against LGBT people
–refuse to cover medically-necessary gender transition services
–deny coverage to anyone based on a pre-existing condition (like HIV/AIDS)
- ALL health plans must cover emergency care, doctor visits, prescription drugs and preventive care.
- You can get free application help from an LGBT-friendly enrollment assistor.
- You can apply year-round for FREE or LOW-COST health coverage through Medicaid, the new Essential Plan, or Child Health Plus.
Team members have been making a special effort to connect with LGBT adolescents and young adults about the care they need. Outreach workers like Caroline Davidson, in the photo at right, have thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to work on the ground with LGBT folks. "While wanting health insurance or care might not be someone's idea of a 'glamorous' pride, it is a highly necessary part of being LGBT," Caroline says. She notes that 60 percent of the LGBT New Yorkers reached so far through these outreach events have been young people ages 16 to 24.
Many of the individuals who approach the REACHLGBT table are looking to get enrolled in health insurance because they are new to New York City or had a recent life event resulting in the need for coverage. The team provides referrals to LGBT-competent navigator agencies, including organizations that belong to the HCFANY LGBT Task Force. For those young people who already have insurance, many of the questions posed to the outreach team concern how to find LGBT-competent health providers, where to obtain care for gender transition services, and how to understand the rights of transgender or gender nonconforming people in society. As outreach workers point out, tabling is a great chance to not only give individuals information, but also to hear their information and perspectives.
Often people who approach the REACHLGBT table offer health services themselves or work for organizations that do, and are therefore looking to make connections. This has enabled the REACHLGBT team to build into an ever-growing referral database of individuals and organizations to which LGBT people can be referred for help. You can contact the REACHLGBT team at 212.870.2010 or firstname.lastname@example.com
Guest blog by Max Hadler, Health Advocacy Specialist at The New York Immigration Coalition
Despite the major health care coverage gains achieved under the Affordable Care Act, more than 450,000 New Yorkers remain uninsured because their immigration status makes them ineligible for affordable coverage. As a result of the continued failure to approve federal immigration reform or lift health coverage restrictions on many groups of immigrants, it continues to fall to state and local governments to pick up the slack. Health Care For All New York has responded to the dire lack of coverage options for immigrants by launching the Coverage 4 All campaign under the leadership of two of the coalition's member organizations, Make the Road New York and the New York Immigration Coalition.
The campaign's mission is to obtain affordable coverage options for all New Yorkers, regardless of immigration status. A shorter-term goal is to expand coverage to a smaller group of immigrants who are "permanently residing under color of law" (PRUCOL). These are people whose presence in the U.S. is known and may be unauthorized, and who have received confirmation from the federal government that it has no intention of deporting them. In New York, immigrants who are PRUCOL are eligible for state-funded Medicaid when they meet the income requirements (less than $16,242 annual income for a single person). However, the same people are not currently eligible for the Essential Plan, New York's low-cost, comprehensive coverage program for low-income residents whose incomes are too high for Medicaid (up to $23,540 annually for a single person). This restriction runs counter to New York's history of providing coverage to many immigrants who are excluded from federally-funded programs.
Most immigrants who are PRUCOL are young adults who grew up in the U.S. and have Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) as a result of President Obama's 2012 executive order providing them two-year work authorizations and a reprieve from deportation. These young people are encouraged to work as a result of their DACA status but are then faced with a dearth of affordable coverage options when their incomes increase beyond the Medicaid threshold because they are ineligible for the Essential Plan and prohibited from accessing tax credits through the New York State of Health insurance marketplace.
To begin to remedy these coverage gaps, the New York State Assembly is working to expand Essential Plan eligibility to include immigrants who are PRUCOL. The Assembly included $10.3 million in its 2016-17 budget to provide this coverage, but the funding was ultimately cut in budget negotiations. Assemblymembers Richard Gottfried and Marcos Crespo have since introduced legislation that would expand Essential Plan eligibility to include immigrants who are PRUCOL. Bill A10054 was successfully voted out of the Assembly Health Committee on May 17 and is now awaiting a vote by the Ways and Means Committee. HCFANY has submitted a memorandum of support for the bill. Others are encouraged to submit their own memorandums and to borrow language from the HCFANY memo as needed. Please contact me at the New York Immigration Coalition if interested in registering your support (email@example.com).

Zuiderdam Cruise Review by Lucy12345: Panama Canal/Aruba/Costa Rica
Overall Member Rating
Panama Canal/Aruba/Costa Rica
Destination: Panama Canal & Central America
Embarkation: Fort Lauderdale (Port Everglades)
Took first cruise on the Holland America line and was generall very pleased. Food was excellent, service in the main dining room was very good, ship was clean, deck chairs were readily available, pool warm, entertainment excellent and lectures by Brett and Microsoft workshops by Molly great. Having a daily Catholic mass on board was a plus. I did not try the spa,bingo, gym or art auctions. There is a great deal on laundry but no self-service machines. You can put all you can in a bag for $20! We had so much in it that I wondered how they got it out!
However, the shops on board were way overpriced and the service in the Italian (reservations needed but no extra charge) restaurant was awful. It left us wondering if this is where the line trains their waiters. Salads were forgotten one night and bread another. Wine had to be ordered three times one night and two the other. That said, the worst rip off was the internet - slow and expensive. In Aruba there is a very cheap internet More cafe right on the dock at the terminal. Wait and walk around town and do it later when there are no lines. I think it was $6 for 90 minutes! The ship charged $50 for less time.
In terms of side trips: the travel through the whole Panama Canal was expensive ($149) but worth it if you have never done it. Less
