World Vision joins more than 150 other aid organizations in calling on Congress to support U.S funding to help reduce poverty around the world.
As aid agencies begin to gain access to Vanuatu's outer islands, the full extent of the damage from Cyclone Pam is becoming clearer. World Vision's emergency team chartered a flight to Tanna Island on Tuesday, which they described as "a scene of utter devastation."
One day after Cyclone Pam slammed into the Pacific islands of Vanuatu, the full extent of the damage remains unknown. It is believed that the cyclone may have impacted as much as 50 percent of the country.
The category 5 storm pounded the islands of Vanuatu with heavy rain and winds last weekend. We are distributing critical relief supplies, including clean drinking water and shelter materials.
Analyzing satellite images, scientists based at Wuhan University in China, in co-operation with the #withSyria coalition of 130 non-governmental organizations, have shown that the number of lights visible over Syria at night has fallen by 83% since March 2011.
As the conflict in Syria enters its fifth year, a new poll finds most Americans still have no idea how many people have been affected by the violence. The reality is that more than 3 million Syrian refugees now make up the largest refugee population in the world.
More than half of American adults say the crisis in Syria has impacted fewer people than other recent disasters; in reality, Syrians are currently the largest refugee population in the world.
Aid agencies today released a scathing critique of the UN Security Council powers, detailing how they have failed to alleviate the suffering of civilians in Syria amid intensifying conflict four years after the start of the crisis.

This invention pertains to processes for converting a layer of amorphous or polycrystalline silicon on insulator into single crystal Si, and to Si device manufacture by a process comprising such conversion.
Recently, there has been increased interest in techniques for recrystallizing thin layers of semiconductor, especially silicon, on a buried noncrystalline insulator layer. This technology is generally referred to as silicon-on-insulator (SOI) technology.
SOI technology offers the promise of, inter alia, improved device isolation, reduced junction and parasitic capacitance, and of improved radiation hardness. The method of forming a monocrystalline layer of Si on a layer of SiO2 that is of interest herein will be referred to as the melting/recrystallization (MR) method. See, for instance, H. W. Lam et al, in VLSI Electronics: Microstructure Science, Vol. 4, N. G. Einspruch, editor, Academic Press (1982), pp. 1-54.
In the MR method, typically a layer of SiO2 is formed on a single crystal Si substrate, is optionally patterned, a layer of poly-Si is deposited thereover, the poly-Si layer is melted in whole or in part, and one or more solidification fronts are caused to advance laterally across the poly-Si layer. See, for instance, U.S. Pat. No. 4,323,417, issued Apr. 6, 1982, to H. W. Lam.
Various heat sources have been used in the MR method, including strip heaters, electron or laser beams, and tungsten halogen lamps or other sources of high-intensity noncoherent radiation. Various variants of the MR method are known to the art. Among the techniques is a global melting approach, typically comprising simultaneous exposure of a whole wafer to high intensity visible and infrared radiation (G. K. Celler et al, in Laser-Solid Interactions and Transient Thermal Processing of Materials, J. Narayan et al, editors, North Holland, N.Y. (1983), pp. 575-580). A different technique comprises zone melting, i.e., the relatively slow scan of a strip-like hot zone across the sample. The sample, e.g., a wafer, is typically coupled to a heat source that maintains the sample at a temperature several hundred °C. below the melting temperature of the semiconductor material, and the strip-like hot zone (in which the semiconductor material is molten) is scanned across the sample. A variety of means exists for producing the moving hot zone, e.g., a line-focused laser or other light source, or an electron beam. Graphite strip heaters are also used in the prior art. See, for instance, the Fan patent or M. W. Geis et al, Journal of the Electrochemical Society: Solid State Science and Technology, Vol. 129(12), pp. 2812-2818 (1982).
Typically, a capping layer is formed atop the deposited poly-Si to prevent agglomeration and evaporation of the molten Si. The capping layer typically comprises an oxide, e.g., SiO2. See U.S. Pat. No. 4,371,421, issued Feb. 1, 1983, to J. C. C. Fan et al (Fan). It has been found, however, that the presence of a bare SiO2 capping layer cannot reliably prevent balling of the molten portion of the poly-Si layer. Improvement has been achieved by coating the SiO2 capping layer with a Si-rich SiNx film deposited by sputtering of a Si3 N4 target, with nitrogen diffusing through the cap layer to the Si/SiO2 interface where it promotes wetting. Although capable of producing recrystallized Si films of relatively high quality, wetting was found to be not reliable, with film agglomeration, void formation, and thickness variation occurring with unacceptably high frequency.
A capping technique which was said to have greater reproducibility was disclosed by C. K. Chen et al, Applied Physics Letters, Vol. 48(19), pp. 1300-1302 (1986). These workers reported that annealing of a Si/SiO2 /0.5 μm poly-Si/SiO2 sandwich at 1100° C. for 3 hours in NH3, oxidizing for about 20 minutes in O2, and annealing in NH3 for an additional 3 hours results in a cap that is wetted well by the molten poly-Si. The reference reports also that the above treatment results in the presence of a small amount of nitrogen (N) at the poly-Si/cap SiO2 interface, and that the interfacial N promotes wetting of the molten Si during MR. For thicker (1 μm) poly-Si films a single 8 hours NH3 anneal was reported to be also effective.
Despite the fact that incorporation of N by the above prior art annealing method improves the reliability of wetting, it has been found that thus produced recrystallized thin Si layers frequently still contain imperfections that limit their usefulness as device material. In particular, recrystallized Si layers have been found to frequently have substantial surface roughness, especially if the melt parameters are not closely controlled. A Si layer comprising such rough surface areas frequently would not be acceptable as device material. Furthermore, as is apparent from the above discussion, prior art techniques for introducing interfacial N require lengthy heat treatment at elevated temperature, and may result in the introduction of N, a donor element, into the recrystallized Si, thereby changing the conduction characteristics of the Si.
In view of the potential significance of SOI devices, availability of a reliable MR method that can result in formation of device quality Si on SiO2 and that is not subject to some or all of the above discussed shortcomings of the prior art would be desirable. This application discloses such a method.
By a "single crystal" Si film or "monocrystalline" Si film, we mean herein a thin layer of crystalline Si that has essentially the same crystalline orientation throughout the layer. In agreement with current usage, a Si film is still considered to be a single crystal or monocrystalline Si film even though it may contain defects such as dislocations, and even though the defects may form two-dimensional arrays such as small angle grain boundaries, as long as essentially no portion of the volume of the Si film is enclosed by such boundaries.
By a "poly-Si" layer we mean an amorphous or polycrystalline Si layer.
FIG. 1 schematically depicts a cross sectional view of a SiO2 /Si/SiO2 sandwich on a Si substrate; and
FIG. 2 shows schematically one type of apparatus for the practice fo the MR technique.
It is an objective of this invention to provide a MR method for producing a SOI structure that use an effective wetting agent which, if it becomes incorporated into the recrystallized Si film of the SOI structure, does not have any substantial effect on the electrical conduction properties of the Si film.
It is another objective of the invention to provide convenient, reliable, and effective methods for introducing a wetting agent into the SiO2 /Si/SiO2 sandwich that do not require the long heat treatment associated with the preferred prior art method of introducing nitrogen.
And it is a further objective to provide an improvement in the strip heater MR technique that results in substantially improved quality of the monocrystalline Si layer produced thereby. In particular, the improvement can result in Si film having Rutherford backscattering χmin<5%, with the only significant defect typically being widely spaced small angle tilt boundaries (typically misalignment of 0.2° or less) formed by threading dislocations.
These (and other) objectives are attained, respectively, by use of carbon (C) as a wetting agent, by introducing the setting agent (N or C) by exposing the Si film (prior to completion of cap formation) to a gas that comprises a wetting agent-containing molecular species, and by choice of conditions such that the thermal gradient across the solidification front is substantially smaller than used by the prior art.
Carbon has been found to be an effective wetting agent that, in the amounts incorporated into the Si film, does not have any significant effect on the electronic properties of the recrystallized Si. Carbon can be introduced into the SiO2 /Si/SiO2 sandwich by any appropriate method, including ion implantation, and at any appropriate time prior to melting of the Si film. Although the invention is not necessarily so limited, it is currently believed that in order to be effective, a certain amount (currently believed to be about 0.1-3 monolayers) of C has to be present at least at one of the two SiO2 /Si interfaces. The currently preferred methods for introducing C are the inventive methods that will be discussed next.
In one (and currently preferred) embodiment, the inventive technique for causing an effective amount of the wetting agent to be present in the SiO2 /Si/SiO2 sandwich comprises "soaking" (prior to cap formation) the wafer in an atmosphere comprising a wetting agent-containing molecular species. Exemplarily, the soak is carried out after deposition of the poly-Si layer, the atmosphere comprises a hydrocarbon such as methane (CH4), C2 H2, C2 H6, or ammonia (NH3), the wafer is maintained at a temperature effective in causing a pyrolytic reaction of the wetting agentcontaining species (e.g., 500°-900° C.) for a period of time sufficient to result in deposition of an effective amount of C or N, respectively, on the Si film. Typically, the effective time will be within the range from 1-30 minutes. Prior to exposure of the poly-Si surface to the wetting agent-containing atmosphere the surface is typically cleaned by a known technique. After exposure, the cap layer is advantageously formed in situ, without exposure of the sample to air. The SiO2 cap layer can be formed by any appropriate deposition technique. We have found growth by chemical vapor deposition (CVD), using known precursors such as tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) or silane, to be advantageous.
Although currently not preferred, it is possible to soak the wafer in the wetting agent-containing atmosphere prior to the deposition of the poly-Si layer on the (first) SiO2 layer.
In another embodiment the inventive technique comprises incorporation of the wetting agent into the cap layer during cap formation. This is advantageously accomplished by formation of the cap material by CVD, with the atmosphere comprising, in addition to an appropriate precursor such as TEOS or SiH4 +O2, an effective amount of a wetting agent-containing molecular species such as CH4, C2 H2, C2 H6, or NH3. Exemplarily, the flow ratio of Si-containing precursor gas to wetting agent-containing precursor is within the range 100:1-5:1, and the sample is maintained at a temperature in the range 500°-900° C. The above capforming procedure results in the formation of SiO2 cap that contains a minor amount of wetting agent (not necessarily uniformly distributed). During the heating that attends the melting of the Si film, diffusion of the wetting agent can take place, which can result in the presence of an effective amount of wetting agent at the Si/cap interface. Although not currently preferred, the wetting agent can be incorporated into the first SiO2 layer.
As is apparent from the above description of two embodiments, the inventive method does not require a separate heat treatment of the wetting agent-containing sandwich prior to the melting of the Si film. The attendant simplification of processing, and shortening of processing time, are of economic significance and constitute an advantage of the inventive technique. A further significant advantage is the reproducibly high quality of the resulting monocrystalline Si film, including the substantially uniformly smooth surface of films produced by the inventive method, that can be attained under a broader range of MR processing conditions.
Although the wetting-related aspects of the invention are primarily discussed wherein in reference to MR techniques in which a melt zone is scanned across a capped Si layer, the invention is not so limited. In particular, C can be used as a wetting agent also in the global melting technique (see G. K. Celler et al, op. cit.), and the above described inventive techniques for incorporating the wetting agent into the SiO2 /Si/SiO2 sandwich can also be used inconjuction with the global melting technique.
We have also discovered the existence of a previously unknown parameter regime in the MR technique that can result in monocrystalline Si films of substantial improved crystalline quality, as compared to prior art Si layers. In particular, we have found that Si films that solidified under very low thermal gradient conditions (the gradient typically being less than about 4° C./mm across the solidification front, normal to the front in the layer plane) have a qualitatively and quantitatively different defect structure than have films grown under the moderate to high thermal gradient conditions (gradient substantially greater than 4° C./mm) typically employed in the prior art.
In at least some circumstances, it may also be found desirable to reduce the speed at which the solidification front is scanned across the film to a value substantially lower than customary in the prior art. For instance, we have advantageously used scan speeds in the range 50-300 μm/sec. This can be compared to typical prior art speeds ≧0.5 mm/sec. Furthermore, we have found that use of a higher base temperature (the temperature at which the wafer is maintained by the lower heater without any heating by the strip heater) than commonly used in the prior art can reduce the incidence of slip in the Si substrate. We have thus found the use of a base temperature that is 25°-100° C. lower than the melting temperature of Si to be advantageous.
Si films produced by the prior art (high gradient) MR technique typically show a network of branched tilt boundaries, with misalignment across boundaries typically in the order of 1°-3°, the tilt boundaries containing edge dislocations that typically run approximately in the plane of the film. On the other hand, monocrystalline Si films produced by the inventive (low gradient) MR technique contain essentially only unbranched subboundaries that contain mostly "threading" dislocations (i.e., dislocations that run approximately normal to the plane of the film and thus have less detrimental effect in device manufacture than in-plane dislocations), with the misalignment across a subboundary typically being about an order of magnitude smaller than in the prior art films. Typical misalignments in Si layers according to the invention are about 0.1°-0.2°. Monocrystalline films grown by the inventive technique furthermore have wider spacing (e.g., about 50 μm) between subboundaries than prior art material (which typically has spacings of about 5-20 μm), and can have a Rutherford backscattering yield χmin (a common measure of crystalline quality) essentially in distinguishable from bulk single crystal Si (3%). This is to be compared with typical prior art χmin of 50-80% for unseeded material.
Essentially all prior art IC technologies, including C-MOS, can be implemented in SOI wafers produced by the inventive method. In some of these ICs all of the devices may be formed in the Si layer formed according to the invention, whereas others may be of a hybrid type, with some of the devices formed in the substrate Si. Among devices that can advantageously be implemented (in SOI as well as in the referred to hybrid technique) on inventive wafers are devices of the type disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,453,306, co-assigned with this.
The previously discussed aspects of the invention are currently believed to be most advantageously used in the MR growth of thin (typically less than about 2-3 μm) monocrystalline Si layers on SiO2. However, a thin layer grown according to the invention can serve as the substrate in the epitaxial growth, by a known technique, of a "thick" (typically about 3-30 μm) monocrystalline Si film.
Our past attempts at growing epitaxial thick Si films by using thin prior art monocrystalline Si films as substrate resulted in thick films that comprised an unacceptably large portion of highly defective material. However, these problems are absent when "low gradient" thin films according to the invention are used as seed layer for the epitaxial growth, by any appropriate method, of thick monocrystalline Si films. Not only can the thus grown thick film consist essentially exclusively of epitaxial material of quality comparable to that of the thin Si seed film, but at least in some cases we have found that the subboundaries that were present in the seed film did not propagate to the surface of the thick film grown thereon. The inventive technique thus can conveniently and inexpensively result in the formation of device quality thick Si films on relatively thick (e.g., 1-5 μm) high dielectric strength SiO2 layers. In such material, high voltage semiconductor devices such as transistors (discrete or integrated) can be fabricated by known techniques. A particular and significant application of such high voltage integrated electronic devices is considered to be a voltage step-up circuit that permits elimination of the ballast transformer in fluorescent lighting means. A circuit that achieves this function using several discrete transistors is known, and lighting means comprising the discrete circuit are believed to be commercially available from North American Philips. However, these prior art means are quite costly and cumbersome, and replacement of the discrete devices by a high-voltage SOI integrated circuit would result in lower cost and increased convenience. For instance, it would permit substitution of fluorescent light bulbs for incandescent ones, without change of fixture. The economic significance of such replacement probably requires no discussion.
FIG. 1 shows a cross sectional segment of an exemplary capped SOI wafer 10, in which 11 is a standard single crystal Si wafer, 12 is a (about 1 μm) SiO2 layer, 13 is a thin (about 0.5 μm) Si layer, and 14 is (about 2 μm) SiO2 cap layer. The quoted thicknesses are exemplary only. Prior to melting and recrystallization, 13 is polycrystalline or amorphous (collectively referred to as poly-Si), whereas after recrystallization, it is monocrystalline, typically of (100) orientation.
FIG. 2 is a schematic representation of a known MR technique, namely, the strip heater zone melting technique. Numeral 20 refers to the lower heater, 21 is a strip heater (e.g., a 1 mm2 graphite strip maintained about 1 mm above the top surface of wafer 10), and 22 indicates the portion of the wafer in which Si layer 13 is molten. The molten zone is scanned across the wafer by moving the strip heater, as indicated by the two arrows. The lower heater is set such that the wafer base temperature is about 300°-25° C. below the melting temperature of Si, and the strip heater typically is set to about 2000°-2500° C. Prior art scanning speeds typically are 0.5 mm/sec and above, whereas we have found that substantially slower speeds frequently are advantageous. The MR technique can be practiced in air (except when using a graphite or other oxidizable heater), in vacuum or in an inert atmosphere.
The (100) surface of a standard 100 mm Si wafer was cleaned by a known procedure and a 2 μm thick unpatterned layer of thermal SiO2 formed thereon by heating at 1100° C. in pyrogenic steam. After completion of SiO2 growth the wafer was transferred to a low pressure CVD (LPCVD) apparatus, in which a 1 μm thick continuous amorphous Si layer was grown on the SiO2 layer by pyrolysis of silane at 570° C. The thus produced Si/SiO2 /Si wafer was then transferred to a second LPCVD apparatus in which the wafer was heated to 730° C. in flowing argon (Ar), the pressure reduced to about 0.1 Torr while the Ar flow continued. The Ar flow was then terminated and CH4 flowed (0.1 Torr pressure) through the chamber. The sample was soaked in the CH4 for 10 minutes, then the CH4 flow was terminated, and TEOS gas introduced. A 2 μm thick layer of SiO2 was formed atop the methane-treated Si by a known LPCVD process. After removal of the wafer from the LPCVD apparatus, it was introduced into a graphite strip heater MR apparatus. The apparatus was evacuated to 10-6 Torr, the wafer temperature raised by means of the lower heater to a base temperature of 1200° C., the apparatus backfilled with 250 Torr of Ar, and then the graphite strip (4×0.25 mm cross section) was resistively heated to about 2000° C., (the temperature adjusted such that the width of the molten strip is about 0.5 mm). The strip heater was about 2 mm above the wafer surface, and was scanned at 200 μm/sec across the wafer in a direction aligned with a <010> crystal direction.
After cooling of the wafer to room temperature, the cap oxide was removed by etching in concentrated liquid HF and the recrystallized Si examined by means of Rutherford backscattering and electron microscopy. The measured χmin was 3%, the orientation was (100) throughout, with subboundary spacing of 40-80 μm, with cumulative orientation misalignment not exceeding 0.2° over the examined area (several cm2).
A SOI sample was prepared substantially as described in Example 1, except that, after completion of the cap layer, a 5 μm wide circular line, located 2 mm from the edge of the wafer, is defined lithographically and etched by reactive ion etching through the cap, the underlying poly-Si, and the buried oxide, to the substrate. This line provided crystallographic seeding (connecting the molten Si film to the (100) Si substrate by capillary action) for the MR process. The recrystallized Si film was of the same crystallographic orientation as the Si substrate except for subboundary misalignments of less than 0.2°.
A SOI wafer is produced substantially as described in Example 1, except that the poly-Si is soaked in NH3 instead of in CH4.
A SOI wafer was produced substantially as described in Example 3, except that the sample was not soaked, and that the cap layer was produced by pyrolysis of a TEOS-NH3 atmosphere (flow ratio 20:1).
A SOI wafer was produced substantially as described in Example 1, except that after removal of the cap layer, the wafer was cleaned in a CVD apparatus (30 sec at 1200° C. in flowing H2 +HCl, 95 l/min:0.9 l/min), and 20 μm of epitaxial Si was grown in situ on the Si layer (4 minutes at 1150° C. in H2 +SiHCl3, flow rate 100 l/min of H2 +18 gm/min of SiHCl3). The resulting thick film of single crystal Si had a uniform, smooth surface, χmin of 3%, and the cumulative misorientation did not exceed 0.2°.
A SOI wafer was produced substantially as described in Example 1, except that the scan velocity was 1 mm/sec, the strip heater temperature was about 2250° C., and the melt width was about 3 mm. The recrystallized Si film showed branched tilt boundaries (average spacing about 10 μm), with cumulative misorientation of about 3°.
An approximately 20 μm thick layer of Si was produced substantially as described in Example 5, except that the seed Si layer was produced substantially as described in Example 6. The thick Si film had a rough surface due to presence of a substantial amount of highly defective material in wedge-shaped sections originating at the subboundaries of the seed material.
A SOI wafer was produced substantially as described in Example 1. The resulting 0.5 μm thick Si layer was doped p- by implantation of boron, and n-channel FET devices produced in the doped Si layer by a standard known technique. The thus produced devices functioned in the expected fashion and had electron mobilities essentially identical to those observed in control devices, having the same doping levels and geometry, fabricated in bulk Si.

DM Collins5 Stars Out Of 5June 9, 2010DM CollinsIn August 2007 I began to put into practice the principles found in Doug Addison's training seminar, Accelerating Into Your Life's Purpose, which is based on the book, Personal Development God's Way. Every time I take ANY step in this process, my life seems to go "whoosh!" and I truly find myself "acclerating into my life's purpose." My longest-held dream is to become a published writer, to help and encourage others through the dark and difficult issues of life (many of which I have personally experienced) and to live their lives with greater joy and satisfaction. Like most writers, I struggled with self-doubt, fear of failure AND fear of success, procrastination and many other purpose-killing thoughts and behaviors. Doug showed me how to create a MAP (pg. 242) for my life and to take positive actions toward accomplishing my dream in spite of the obstacles that I perceived to be in my way. I learned to Ask the Right Questions (pg. 109) and to put a positive SPIN on my life (Pg. 120). I now truly believe God's Good Intentions (pg. 96) toward me. I now make choices and take actions that reflect my confidence in His love and goodness for my life.I started taking positive steps toward my dream, like writing blog articles and designing a writer's Web site (currently under construction). I even took a chance and submitted a manuscript to a publisher. Less than three years after beginning this process of personal transformation, I signed my first publishing contract and have an invitation to write for that publisher again! Approaching my life God's Way (pg. 45) made all the difference. Today I am living a Breakthrough Lifestyle (pg. 60)!

Singer Jimmy Scott
Singer Jimmy Scott. There's a new biography on Jimmy Scott called Faith in Time by David Ritz. Scott's album, Falling in Love Is Wonderful, has just been reissued. He sang with Lionel Hampton's band in the late 1940s and early 1950s and influenced such singers as Nancy Wilson, Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder. Qunicy Jones who played with Hampton's band then said of Scott's singing, "It's a very emotional, soul-penetrating style. Jimmy used to tear my heart out every night." Scott has had a sporadic singing career marked by long periods out of the limelight. He returned to performing and recording in the early 1990s. This interview first aired July 23, 1992.

I travelled to West Palm Beach this month for 8 days of glorious sun and surf! Love the ocean waves, lazy days and good food too:)
I would probably enjoy a wine tasting evening or a music festival.
Love to dance to the 70's music, of course! Also like 99.5!
Italian dishes are a favorite.
If it happens...it happens.
I am an over 50 gal, who still feels like a 29 year old! I love people, music, and travel. My wonderful family keeps me grounded. Connection and communication is important to me.

King Cobra is a ripped-from-the-headlines drama covering the early rise of gay porn headliner Sean Paul Lockhart (Garrett Clayton), a.k.a. Brent Corrigan, before his falling out with the porn producer (Christian Slater) who made him famous. When Sean decides he'd be better off as a free agent, a cash-strapped pair of rival producers (James Franco and Keegan Allen) aims to cash in by any means possible. Molly Ringwald and Alicia Silverstone also star.
The recently premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival and has surprisingly received a great reception. The Wrap loved it. I can't wait to check out the film myself.
On the heels of the first clip which featured Clayton showering, comes another sneak peek. This time around, Allen and Franco are shown working out. Check it out below.
The highly-anticipated film King Cobra, premieres this week at the Tribeca Film Festival. The ripped-from-the-headlines drama covers the early career of Sean Paul Lockhart aka gay porn star Brent Corrigan. Teen Beach Movie actor Garrett Clayton plays the adult film headliner.
Feeling frustrated from his small earnings, Corrigan has a fall out with the producer who made him famous played by Christian Slater. When Corrigan decides he'd be better off as a free agent, a cash-strapped pair of rival producers aim to cash in by any means possible. An all out porn turf war then ensues.
James Franco, Keegan Allen, Alicia Silverstone and Molly Ringwald also star in the film. Check out below an exclusive clip from Entertainment Weekly.
This looks so ridiculous and that's why it's beyond brilliant. You'll never eat a baby carrot, peel a potato or grill another sausage without feeling a little guilty ever again 😉
Sausage Party is the brainchild of Seth Rogen and spoofs Disney and Pixar films. The film screened a work-in-progress cut at South by Southwest Film Festival just last night and based on immediate reactions, Rogen has a hit on his hands.
Sausage Party Movie Synopsis
The film tells the story of one sausage setting out on a quest to discover the truth about his existence. After falling out of a shopping cart, our hero sausage and his new friends embark on a perilous journey through the supermarket to get back to their aisles before the Fourth of July sale.
Also lending their voices to the raunchy animated film are Kristen Wiig, Jonah Hill, Bill Hader, Michael Cera, James Franco, Danny McBride, Craig Robinson, Paul Rudd, Edward Norton and Salma Hayek. It's set to arrive in theaters on August 12. Check out the red band trailer below.
The iconic publication announced in October it will no longer showcase naked women in their magazine, after 60+ years of doing so. Jenny McCarthy didn't make it a secret that she wanted to grace the final cover. She wasn't alone. Many also publicly expressed their interest in snagging the honor. Well, they're all S.O.L. Playboy magazine has gone with one of their all-time favorites instead.
"I got a call from [Hugh Hefner's] attorney who said, 'We don't want anybody else. There's nobody else, could you do the last cover of Playboy?'" the former "Baywatch" star told ET.
Fittingly, Pamela Anderson is the covergirl for the final issue. Great choice!!! The 48-year-old actress has now scored the cover a record 13th time. It also marks her 15th Playboy pictorial to date. Before she committed to Hefner, she checked in with her teenage boys– Brandon (19) and Dylan (17).
"I said, 'Hef just called, he wants me to do the last cover of Playboy,' and he goes, 'Mom you've got to do it,'" recalled Anderson. "'We're older, we're not embarrassed anymore of you. You know, we think you're great.'"
Anderson returned to the Playboy mansion for the momentous occasion. Famed photographer Ellen Von Unwerth helmed the shoot while James Franco conducted the accompanying interview. Check out the full cover below, along with a behind-the-scenes video of Pamela at the mansion.
What is it, 2007 all over again? That's when Guitar Hero was all the rage, appearing everywhere including shows like Gossip Girl. Admittedly, I was on the bandwagon and was obsessed with the video game. I even used to have Guitar Hero parties. How lame looking back now 😉
Activision shut production on the once-popular game in 2010, but the brand is being resurrected this month. In a new commercial, Lenny Kravitz and James Franco take each other on in Guitar Hero Live coming October 20. Watch below, Franco trying to keep up with the "Are You Gonna Go My Way" singer on "Keep On Swinging," by Rival Sons.
Nicole Kidman steps in front of the camera once again to play a famous person. This time, the 48-year-old Aussie portrays British traveller-writer-archaeologist-explorer-cartographer Gertrude Bell. The multi-hyphenate is sometimes described as the "female Lawrence of Arabia."
Director Werner Herzog brings Bell's life to the silver screen. The film chronicles her journeys of love and loss in the Middle East during the early 20th century.
Queen of the Desert premiered at 65th Berlin International Film Festival. Kidman is surrounded by a bevy of gorgeous men in the film, including James Franco, Damian Lewis and Robert Pattinson who plays T.E. Lawrence aka Lawrence of Arabia. Check out the trailer below.
Anyone else starting to lose count on how many times James Franco has played a gay character on film? I have and I'm sure there are plenty more homosexual parts in his future.
It's never my intention to push anyone to come out, but can he just get it over with already. We all know one day it's going to happen 😉
For his latest role, the 37-year-old plays the estranged gay son of Robert Duvall's character in the crime film, Wild Horses. The movie which premiered at South by Southwest was written and directed by Duvall and also stars his wife, Luciana.
Rounding out the cast are Josh Hartnett, Adriana Barraza and True Blood's Jim Parrack. Wild Horses rides into select theaters and on VOD on June 5, 2015. Check out the trailer below.
Movie Synopsis
Texas Ranger Samantha Payne (Luciana Duvall) reopens a 15-year-old Missing Persons case, uncovering clues linking a local boy's death to wealthy family man, Scott Briggs (Robert Duvall). Samantha will stop at nothing to discover the truth even if it means risking her own life.
With the unexpected return of his estranged son Ben (James Franco), Briggs must find a way to either silence the law for good, or come to terms with the relationship between Ben and the boy that he tried to conceal all those years ago.
If James Franco's sexuality confused you before, this latest interview will have you scratching your head even more. The 36-year-old actor addresses his sexual orientation by having his straight persona interview his gay one for FourTwoNine magazine. In essence, Franco is 'gay' in his art, but 'straight' in his life.
"Straight" James asked himself, "Are you f–king gay or what?," to which "gay" James replied, "Well, I like to think that I'm gay in my art and straight in my life. Although, I'm also gay in my life up to the point of intercourse, and then you could say I'm straight. So I guess it depends on how you define gay. If it means whom you have sex with, I guess I'm straight. In the twenties and thirties, they used to define homosexuality by how you acted and not by whom you slept with. Sailors would fuck guys all the time, but as long as they behaved in masculine ways, they weren't considered gay."
James has several films coming out in 2015, including three this Spring alone- True Story, Everything Will Be Fine and I Am Michael. I'm most looking forward to the latter where he plays a real life former gay activist who denounces homosexuality and becomes a Christian pastor.
Check out more riveting questions answered by Franco asked by himself below, along with photos snapped by Damon Baker.

Franciscan Monastery
La Rábida monastery has been a Franciscan community since the 13th century. It was declared a Historic-Artistic Monument in 1856.
It was constructed over La Rábita, a small Almohad building that gave it its name. It became a monastery in 1261, as shown in a papal bull from Benedict XIII allowing Fray Juan Rodríguez and his companions to set up a community. The Franciscans exerted a great influence in the area. The building is in the Gothic-Mudejar style and is for the worship of the Virgen de los Milagros, of whom there is a 14th century alabaster statue. Columbus took refuge in the monastery in 1490, after being told that the Catholic Monarchs had rejected his petition to mount an expedition to look for the Indies. The prior and Queen Isabel's confessor, Juan Pérez, persuaded them to listen to the proposal.

Gossamer fabric rolls are the ideal material for draping, covering and adding beautiful colors and textures to an event space. We feature a unique selection of patterned gossamer that includes vibrant tie-dyed patterns, wild animal prints and tranquil water patterns that are perfect when decorating for a beach theme or Under the Sea party. Select soft, easy to use gossamer material as backdrops with large decorations such as cardboard cutouts and standees to create interesting backgrounds for photo spots. Our Mardi Gras patterned gossamer roll is the ideal material to pair with Jazz Sax Player standee or any one of our other large, Mardi Gras themed cutouts. Drape the gossamer fabric so it hangs in a flowing manner down the wall to create a cascading effect. Highlight this décor with specialty lighting or soft spotlights to enhance its beauty.
Combine patterned gossamer with solid color or metallic gossamer material for a stunning layered look. Create an ethereal atmosphere with light blue gossamer, silver metallic gossamer and the cloud patterned gossamer, draping these along walls and in between room columns for a fairytale themed Sweet 16 party. Easily form an elegant bridal walkway for an outdoor wedding by draping gossamer material in between white wedding columns. Wrap strands of twinkle lights within the gossamer for a beautiful, sparkling look. Choose the green palm gossamer roll when material is needed for specialty décor projects with a tropical or island theme. Don't forget to add a lighted palm tree or two to complete the overall design. No matter the event or its location, patterned gossamer adds a unique touch to any theme party.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. - The Virginia men's soccer team faces off with Radford at 7 p.m. Tuesday in a friendly at Klöckner Stadium. Admission to the exhibition match is free, and parking is available in the University Hall lot.
Ranked No. 25 nationally in the preseason NSCAA poll, the Cavaliers opened their fall training last Wednesday. UVa also will play an exhibition at 7 p.m. Saturday at Rutgers. The Cavaliers' 2013 regular-season opener is Friday, Aug. 30, when they entertain 10th-ranked Louisville as part of a doubleheader with the UVa women's team at Klöckner Stadium.
Virginia posted a 10-7-4 record, including a 3-4-1 mark in the ACC, in 2012. Despite featuring a starting lineup which typically consisted of six freshmen and 10 underclassmen, the Cavaliers reached the second round of the NCAA tournament before falling 3-1 at No. 13-seeded New Mexico. UVa returns a wealth of experience, with 18 letterwinners and 10 starters returning from its 2012 side.
2013 ACC All-Freshman Team honorees Darius Madison (Philadelphia, Pa.), Marcus Salandy-Defour (Kensington, Md.) and Todd Wharton (Glen Allen, Va.) all are back in the mix for the Cavaliers.
The Cavaliers also are bringing in a heralded recruiting class which has been tabbed as high as No. 2 nationally. The recruiting class features 11 freshmen and is highlighted by a pair of top-five recruits, Jordan Allen (Rochester, N.Y.) and Nicko Corriveau (Potomac, Md.).
Sophomore transfer Jeff Gal (Bartlett, Ill.) figures to get the starting nod in goal for the Cavaliers; he transferred to Virginia this season from Creighton, where he went 13-1-1 with seven shutouts last year while leading the Blue Jays to the NCAA College Cup.
UVa once again will play one of the nation's toughest schedules, featuring 17 regular-season matches including seven ranked foes: Maryland (2), North Carolina (4), Notre Dame (7), Louisville (10), Wake Forest (17), Syracuse (20) and VCU (24).
2013 Ticket Information Season and single-game tickets are on sale now. To purchase tickets online, visit VirginiaSports.com/Tickets. In-person purchases can be made at the Virginia Athletics Ticket Office in Bryant Hall at Scott Stadium on weekdays between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. Telephone purchases can be made by calling 1-800-542-UVA1 (8821) or locally at 434-924-UVA1 (8821).
General Admission All-Soccer Season Passes are available for adults ($40), Youth/Senior ($30) and UVa Faculty/Staff ($30).
Single-game tickets are on sale now and are $7 for adults and $5 for youth, seniors and faculty/staff. Group ticket orders of 20 or more tickets are $4.

Grow and Behold Foods brings you delicious OU Glatt Kosher pastured meats raised on small family farms. We adhere to the strictest standards of kashrut, animal welfare, worker treatment, and sustainable agriculture.
All Grow and Behold products are strictly Glatt Kosher and produced under the supervision of the Orthodox Union (OU). Our Shochtim (ritual slaughtermen) are experts in their field, and uphold the highest standards of kashrus.
We work in small, family-owned processing plants, where we can personally supervise every step of the process. Our Shochtim have plenty of time to check their knives and thoroughly inspect the lungs of each animal (for beef). We ensure that each animal is treated humanely, without electric prods or other painful techniques.
We never shackle and drag our beef. This cruel practice is the standard in South America where nearly all the grass-fed kosher meat is produced for the US market.
