YingHuo-1 -- Martian Space Environment Exploration Orbiter, http://www.cjss.ac.cn/qikan/manage/wenzhang/2008-05-06.pdf
Scientific Objectives of China-Russia Joint Mars Exploration Program YH-1, http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2010ChA%26A..34..163W
The Phobos-Grunt/Yinghuo-1 spacecraft did not perform its scheduled burn to begin its trajectory to Mars.
The Yinghuo-1 ("Firefly") mission was a Chinese Mars orbiter scheduled to launch in tandem with the Russian Phobos-Grunt mission. The primary scientific objectives of the mission were to study Martian space environmental structure, plasma distribution and other characteristics; the solar wind-atmosphere coupling and energy deposition processes, martian ion escape processes and mechanisms, the regional gravity field of Mars, and to perform martian and Phobos surface imaging.
The mission also would have tested deep space navigation and communication techniques.
Spacecraft and Subsystems
The Yinghuo-1 satellite had a mass of 115 kg. The main body was box-shaped, 0.75 x 0.75 x 0.65 meters with two solar panel wings, extending to 6.85 meters from tip to tip, and a 95 cm diameter high gain antenna. The solar panels would have provide an average power of 90 W. The communications and tracking of Yinghuo-1 would have been achieved using an X-band receiver and 12 W transmitter system at 8.4 and 7.17 GHz and open-loop tracking using Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI), DOR/DOD, and one-way Doppler measurements. Data transmission would have been up to 16 Kb/sec. Yinghuo-1 and Phobos-Grunt carried similar space physics payloads to allow coordinated observations of the Martian space environment. They also would have combined to study the Martian ionosphere using UHF radio occultation links. The payload included a camera, plasma detector, and magnetometer.
Mission Profile
Yinghuo-1 was stacked on a common booster below Phobos-Grunt. Yinghuo-1 launched on 8 November 2011 at 2016 UT on a Zenit 2SB41.1 rocket from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan into an elliptical Earth orbit. The plan was to use a Fregat upper stage to carry Phobos-Grunt and Yinghuo-1 on an eleven month cruise to Mars. However, the later firings never occurred and the spacecraft remained in Earth orbit. The spacecraft are expected to re-enter the atmosphere.
The plan for the mission if it had made it to Mars was as follows: after a 10-11 month cruise to Mars, the connected spacecraft would have been injected into an 800 x 80,000 km near-equatorial (1 - 5 degree inclination) orbit with a period of about 72 hours. The spacecraft were to stay connected for approximately three of these orbits, after which the Phobos-Grunt would have detached and headed towards Phobos. Yinghuo-1 would have remained in this orbit.

" Fisherman Lobster Clubhouse Restaurant " - The 'other' giant lobster specialist in town
This 'other' GTA's Giant Lobster Specialist had been well covered by members of the other food blog that begins with a 'Y'. However, based on my recollection, no chowhounders had written any detailed review about this super popular seafood place!
After recently moved to its new location further west on Steeles, this restaurant, notorious for pushy service and setting a time limit of 2 hours per sitting, is now located in a huge modern cavernous space with curved walls. Wrapped around these walls were array of 27 fish tanks, all housing giant lobsters and king crabs, up to 11 pounds in weight!
Our party of 5 arrived at 6.00pm and the place was already packed!. We ordered one of the 'lobster' set dinner and augmenting it with a couple more dishes. ( there were also more expensive 'king crab' set dinners for 2 to a party of 8 or more ).
The dishes included:
- Complimentary Soup of the day ( Pork and Chinese root vegetables )
- Fried jumbo size BC oysters with black pepper and honey sauce.
- Stirred fry Angus beef filet mignon cubes with cashew and garlic chips
- 6 pound lobster prepared Hong Kong Typhoon Shelter style ( spicy )
- Poached 'Choi Sum' in seafood broth topped with BC clams & Tobiko.
- Steamed whole live French Turbot with ginger, scallions and cilantro.
- Fried rice with lobster Tamale
- Complimentary Black Sesame soup dessert.
First off, be-warned! Sizes of the dishes were huge! Next, prices including those of the lobsters and King crabs, were very reasonable especially when compared to their 'other competitor' in Richmond Hill.
However, as foodies, we were all here for the taste!! And it was here that things started to fall apart..
The oysters, though crunchy and moist inside, has too thick a batter and the black pepper used in the sauce was way too overwhelming! All we can taste was the burning sensation of the pepper! The Emperor's version is way way better!
Stirred fry Angus beef cubes were of high standard. Full of smokey wok-hay flavor, this dish was at par if not better than Maple Yip's. Best dish of the evening.
The poached 'Choi Sum' vegetable dish was a delight. Simple, delicate and flavourful, just the right dish to offset some of the more 'intensely flavoured' dishes.
The steamed French Turbot unfortunately was way overcooked. For sure, Maple Yip's Chef Ho will weep if he sees how they treated such fine product! BTW, O'Mei, the only restaurant close by serving this fish, also beats Fisherman's version hands down.
Fried rice was a bit dry but flavourful.
The star and supposedly, climax of the evening was next! The giant lobster was cooked 'Hong Kong Typhoon Shelter style'. Fried using a mixture of minced garlic, scallions, cilantro, chilis and fried silver ray fish, the end result should be a taste bomb! Unfortunately, the way it was executed, the dish was a major disappointment!! Under seasoned, bland and greasy, fortunately, the huge size of the lobster pieces allowed the sweetness and moistness of the meat to be retained. In comparison, O'Mei's version (s), though $5 more expensive per pound, had flavour profiles that were way more superior and well worth the price premium!
The only selling point of Fisherman's lobster offering was its ' shock and awe' gimmicky tall tower presentation!
Lastly, after spending mega-bucks on the main meal, the lumpy and gooey black sesame dessert soup offered at the end was a total travesty!! Considering O'Mei hands out 4 complimentary and utterly 'yummy' desserts, they should head over to O'Mei and steal a page from them!!
IMO, trying to use gimmicky and showy presentation to offset the rather mediocre tasting food might work on a few non foodies. However, anyone with a more discerning palette can easily see through this smoke screen. I, for one, will not be taken in and as such will not be returning in the near future!
They always try to upsell the set dinner. Most of the tables end up with 4 or 5 boxes of leftover to take home.
Most dishes are oily and overcooked.
The black sesame soup dessert was a joke. Couldn't be worse.
Set menu for 2 can feed 4 and the one for 8-10 will feed 12-14.
What a waste of the expensive ingredients.
I won't go back.
re: ace123
Hello ace123! Foodies do think alike!!!
However, I'm really surprise to find so many 'Yelpers' giving it 4-5 stars and saying the lobster preparation(s) are tastier than O'Mei?!
In fact, comparing Fisherman's offering to say the Emperor and Maple Yip. The latter can do a much better job!!
I first reported on them 2 years ago, Guess they have gone down hill quite a bit. Too ambitious and overload for the kitchen after this huge expansion?
re: Charles Yu
No way can it be better than O'Mei.
I can taste the delicate flavour of lobster in O'Mei's dishes, be it steamed, HK typhoon style or Maggie sauced.
In Fishman Lobster Clubhouse, I can see the lobster mountain but the taste is wayyy off. I think they do a very good job in building mountains!
re: ace123
BTW, I've noticed a new opening called ' Fisherman Wharf Seafood' across from Casa Imperial!! Wonder anyone has tried it?
Thanks for the review, I can tell by the presentation that they have put some work on it compared to the typical Chinese restaurants.
Is the lobster $15/lb or was it part of the set?
If so, that is pretty expensive. I recently had a very nice dinner at a restaurant on the second floor of Oriental Centre at Brimely/Sheppard, the name escaped me but the place escapes me now. Their lobsters are $5.99 a lb and there's an option for the Typhoon Shelter Style for $5 more. We had a 5 pounder so the total cost was $35. You have to order a couple of dishes to get this special price.
Overall, the lobster was tasty and the the value simply cannot be beat. Take a look at the pic I'm attaching and try to give it a try and let us know how it stacks up to the places you've tried.
re: ragged25
Wow!! Based on your photos and description, sounded like a really great deal!!
For our 'set dinner', Fisherman limits the size of the lobster to 5 pounds. Option is available to increase the weight of the beast if one would like to splurge! Additional cost is $16.99 per pound!! Ouch!!
FYI, O'Mei's Giant Lobster, 4, 5 or 6 ways, the current price is $21.00 per pound. Sounded steep, but considering the way one gets to savor 4 different unique ways of tasty preparation and the Tomale Fried rice is included. Its not bad! Do not forget a 3-4 course complimentary dessert is also included as well!. Totally stand alone! No extra dishes required. However, most would order a veggie dish to go along!
Yes! If one knows where to look, there are a lot of great deals around town right now!
re: Charles Yu
The dinner was $70 tax and tip all in. Not in the picture was a complimentary soup and two desserts. A goji berry/lychee jello and a chilled dessert soup with papaya and white fugus. Both were surprisingly good.
Service was really good there too as our plates were changed at least 6 or 7 times as we were working through the lobster. I received similar service at Emperor in the past, to a point where you almost wanted to tell them that your dish is fine and does not need changing every 5 minutes...haha.
But Charles, you seriously should give it a try.
BTW, they have a ton of other seafood dinner sets and prices are reasonable too, including an Alaskan Crab/Giant Lobster combo that looked very inviting.
re: ragged25
Hi ragged 25,
I was just a oriental centre for lobster for $5.99 per pound and a few days later we went to fishman lobster clubhouse..
Lol....I have a lot to complain...their service tactics is very deceiving...
1. Force up sell
2. We order a set dinner for which include a 6 pound lobster. But we were surcharge $17 as the lobster was 7 pound. They ran out of 6 pound lobster. Conniving way to upsell?
3. They don't accept credit cards and debit cards. No mention in front of door! You have to carry wads of cash in order to eat there!
re: qpzqpz
These tactics were at Fisherman or at the one at Oriental Centre? Btw, I just learned the name of the place LHL Seafood Restaurant.
I had dim sum there today and I had no problem paying by Visa on a $45 bill.
re: ragged25
Hey ragged25,
This was at fisherman lobster. Very expensive but does not take credit card.
Yes, LHL takes credit card and they have specials on giant lobster for $5.99 per pound. So funny, I was there for dimsum today.
ditto what the other posters have said. the waitress was pushy about up-selling the set dinner. this place is all hype. yes the presentation has a wow factor (see mountain of lobster) but the food is just OK.
charles yu is 100% spot on about this place using "wow" as a smoke screen.
just an FYI. you need to place a reservation days in advance. forget about walking in and getting a table. we tried that one day and the hostess told us to come back at 10pm. what a slap in the face. might as well tell us to NOT come back that evening. what's more funny was that they were serious! my friend got a phone call at 10pm asking if we still wanted a table.
worst of all is that they accept only CASH. no debit. no credit. there were no signs posted in either english or chinese. and of course the manager gave the bull**** excuse that the machine was down/they haven't received the machine yet...blah blah blah. tax evasion much?
re: Charles Yu
Hey Charles,
I agree despite negative reviews....it's always packed.
People got suckered into the food presentation!
Give it try....you will really understand blogger have bad reviews.
Food presentation: A+
Service: F minus
Ps. Bring at least $300 cash to eat there. Also, dinner for 3 feeds 5 people (not 3).

RIDGWAY – Elk County Commissioners on Tuesday voted to approve a five-year deal with Zito Media for the purchase of a new phone system.
According to Jim Abbey, director of the county's IT department, the switchover will do wonders and provide a higher level of service.
"We decided we wanted to go with a voice over IP system and we'll be able to save money almost immediately," Abbey said. "The return on the investment will probably be about two years, two and a half years tops."
The current phone system utilized by the county recently hit its end-of-life date as well.

Not only is this low-calorie pork dish rich in vitamin A from the carrots, but it's also low in both fat and sodium.
* Nutrition information is estimated based on the ingredients and cooking instructions as described in each recipe and is intended to be used for informational purposes only. Please note that nutrition details may vary based on methods of preparation, origin and freshness of ingredients used.
I had to cook this for two hours. The carrots were still hard after all that time. The flavor was good and the meat was moist. I did cover with aluminum foil. Next time I'd plan on a much longer cook time than the recipe calls for and I would cut all of the vegetables smaller than the recipes says. I added garlic, also, to help with flavor.
This made a very tasty dish and moist. I wasn't sure if I needed to cover it. I did cover with foil. It took at least two hours to cook. The smell while cooking was wonderful!
It wasn't terrible just a bit bland for my liking. If I make it again I'll have to spice it up some.

Test ID: FOBT
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Colorectal cancer screening
Screening for gastrointestinal bleeding
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is 1 of the most commonly diagnosed cancers in the United States (US), and the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths. CRC almost always develops from adenomatous polyps, yet patients remain asymptomatic until the cancer progresses to a fairly advanced stage. Screening for colorectal cancer is strongly advocated for by the US Preventive Services Task Force, the American Cancer Society, the American College of Gastroenterology, and other clinical societies, due to the high incidence of disease and decrease in mortality with medical intervention. Men and women at average risk for colorectal cancer should be screened at regular intervals beginning at age 50, continuing until age 75. Individuals with certain high-risk factors (age, African-American race, inflammatory intestinal disorders, family history of colon cancer, obesity, diabetes, poor diet) may consider earlier screening strategies.
Several options are available for CRC screening and includes fecal occult blood testing (FOBT), sigmoidoscopy, and colonoscopy. FOBT historically utilized guaiac-based tests that identify the presence of hemoglobin based on a nonspecific peroxidase reaction. Guaiac-based FOBT is no longer recommended for cancer screening because it does not detect most polyps and cancers. Furthermore, the false-positive rate with guaiac tests is high if patients do not follow the recommended dietary (withholding notably meat, certain vegetables, iron supplements) or pharmaceutical (withholding nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, vitamin C) restrictions. Finally, multiple stool collections are needed for optimal interpretation of guaiac-based FOBT results.
Fecal immunochemical testing (FIT) has evolved as the preferred occult blood test for colorectal cancer screening due to the lack of specificity and sensitivity of guaiac-based methods. FIT specifically detects the presence of human hemoglobin, eliminating the need for dietary and medication restrictions. For colorectal cancer screening only a single collection is required. The specificity of FIT is routinely >95% with reported sensitivities ranging from 40% to 70% based on the patient population. The clinical specificity of FIT is 97% based on internal studies conducted at Mayo.
To evaluate occult GI bleeding in patients with anemia or iron deficiency, the HemoQuant test should be used (HQ / HemoQuant, Feces). Neither FIT nor guaiac testing detects upper gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding because globin and heme are degraded during intestinal transit. In contrast, the HemoQuant test detects occult bleeding equally well from all sources within the GI tract. The HemoQuant test utilizes a specific fluorometric method that will detect any hemoglobin or heme-derived porphyrins in the stool, is very sensitive, and provides quantitative results.
Reference Values Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.
This test has not been validated in a pediatric population, results should be interpreted in the context of the patient's presentation.
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
This is a quantitative assay but results are reported qualitatively as negative or positive for the presence of fecal occult blood; the cutoff for positivity is 100 ng/mL hemoglobin. The following comments will be reported with the qualitative result for patients >17 years:
-Positive results; further testing is recommended if clinically indicated. This test has 97% specificity for detection of lower gastrointestinal bleeding in colorectal cancer.
-Negative results; this test will not detect upper gastrointestinal bleeding; HQ / HemoQuant, Feces test should be ordered if clinically indicated.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
Fecal immunochemical tests do not detect upper gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding due to the breakdown of globin during intestinal transit; HemoQuant is the most sensitive test to detect upper and lower GI bleeding.
Patients with hemorrhoids or females who are menstruating should not undergo occult blood testing until the bleeding has ceased.
Urine and excessive dilution of specimens with water from the toilet bowl may cause erroneous test results.

text: This year the traffic in Miami defeated me. The amount of activity generated by more than twenty art fairs would benefit from public, and preferably underground, transportation. While I saw plenty of art over two days at three fairs, I saw nothing sufficiently new or challenging to make up for bumper-to-bumper traffic and streets, endlessly clogged, with drivers who didn't know where they were going. After three fairs, I gave up. So this won't pretend to be a best of the best, or even an overview. I spent the first afternoon at Art Basel Miami Beach with my friend, neighbor ... More » »

For a lot of people, playing sports is an important activity in their everyday life for several reasons, from the health related benefits to the social interactions they get out of it. And in the world of sports, soccer occupies a very special place. It's the number one sport on the planet, and for good reasons.
In this article, we will show you – from a believer's point of view – why soccer is such a great sport for everyone.
Soccer Promotes Team Work
In this sport, you're nothing without your teammates. You could be the best player on the planet, if there is no one to keep the goal safe, no one to pass the ball to you or no one to shoot the free kicks, you will not be able to win any game.
In order to have good results, you not only need to work together, you need to listen to each other and become so in-tune with one another that you can read one's movement without giving any tell-tale. Thus, soccer teaches you to listen to your fellowmen and find ways to understand each other.

"So pleased with my order. Will definitely order again. Paper quality, print quality are outstanding. And the design templates were easy to use, made customizing so simple."
"I used these cards for my son's Thank You notes for graduation by changing the name to say "Thank You". I actually received a phone call from a Tiny Prints rep who was worried about some of the sizes of the prints I wanted to use on the card. I was very impressed! He even sent a complimentary proof to make sure I was happy with the changes. The only thing I would change is to have the outside of the card be printed on semi-gloss. It still turned out better than I had hoped for, but I think the semi-gloss would have made the pictures pop more."

3 capsules and I had an allergic reaction, severe rash, very intense itching, gasping for air like a fish out of water. I am 73 and have never been allergic to anything before, this was a nightmare.
its a very effective drug in my point of view well tolerated not very expensive when compared to our own health so i advice it to be taken with pneumonia's
I found out I was allergic to cefaclor after 2 days. I was swollen all over. My eyes was swollen shut. My throat was swollen. Had to go to ER. Broke out with rash ALL over which turned into blisters and lasted a month and a half. this is a mean medication to me. The pharmacist said 99.9% of people are not allergic to this medicine.
Took this medication (Cefaclor) for 7 days of a 7 day regimen. I felt somewhat better, however i still had the infection. Now I have been perscribed a course of V-CILLIN K.

What is mentoring?
Mentoring is a structured and trusted relationship that brings a young person together with a caring individual who offers guidance, support, and encouragement aimed at developing the competence and character of the mentee. A mentoring relationship is most often one-to-one, but some group mentoring relationships exist which entail one mentor with no more than four mentees. Group mentoring of this nature allows for one-on-one relationships to be developed within a group setting.
What is a mentor?
A mentor is a trusted and faithful friend who listens, supports, and guides a young person on a consistent basis over a specified period of time. To children, mentoring means having a trusted friend who cares about them and listens to them; a role model they can look up to and someone who will help them achieve their dreams. The mentor is the one who initiates the flow of the relationship and invites the mentee to share and explore through open communication. A mentor helps the mentee find out where they want to go and helps them find positive and effective ways to get there, while also helping them to grow and develop along the way.

It's safe to say that a barn fire is every horse owner's worst nightmare.
While visiting Stachowski Farm last week, the Schneiders crew discovered a fascinating safety measure that I personally have never seen before. By the barn door, under two fire extinguishers, was a rack full of red halters with red and white leads attached.
Upon closer inspection, we noticed that the chin pieces had been removed and the lead ropes threaded through the brass attachment.
In case of a fire, your first objective is to safely remove your horses from the area. Seconds count. In this situation, you don't have time to run around looking for halters for everyone. Even if you have halters and leads on each stall door, trying to fasten buckles or tie rope halters on panicky horses wastes valuable time. With these particular fire halters, handlers can slip them on quickly and go. Having them all in one place so everyone knows where to find them saves even more time.
Want to implement this safety measure in your barn? Simply invest in one halter (like this one) and lead (like this one) per horse. Cut the chin piece and throat piece off the halter so you are left with the nose piece, cheek pieces and crown piece alone. Then clip your lead to the brass ring on the right side of the halter and slide the opposite end of the lead through the brass ring on the left side.
Now your fire halter is assembled and ready to go! Keep your halter(s) in one easily accessible place in case of emergency, and let everyone at your barn know where to find them.
Do you keep fire halters at your barn? What other creative safety measures do you implement?

Common Sense, Knowledge, and Science: Similarities and differences if any...
Please share your views to get a good and viable understanding of the world around us ... .
W. Ying
Mar 15 2013: .
- +3
Common sense is the science proved many, many times in our everyday life.
Mar 17 2013: see below...Mar 15 2013: Common sense is looking at the situation, evaluating it using the knowledge you have and past experiences and reacting to it in the sensible way. We call it common sense and not reason because sometimes we are not able to pinpoint the logic that was used or all the data that we used to come to our decision. When someone looking at a situation and feels that it is a dangerous one, they are not normally able to pinpoint what made them enter fight or flight mode. Our animal bodies have evolved to sense danger by using sensory input and previous experience. We are just not able to easily explain it or understand it, so we call it common sense.
Knowledge is the data we have accessible to us.
I am a physics major. I know science. That being said, quantum mechanics does not increase my common sense or give me an advantage in day to day activities (other than when I am doing physics). Knowing the trajectories of balls in the park allows me to know when to duck. I can also determine whether certain physical things make sense, like climbing a precarious staircase or setting up a latter. Understanding some psychology allows one to understand how people work so that they can say or do the right things, or gain more insight into people. Science is a tool that we use to understand this data that we receive. It is how we understand and evaluate it in a more accurate way. For example, the more I learn about psychology, the more I am able to understand why some of my friends act the way they do. Science explains the world around us and gives us a way to understand what is going on as well.

So that knowledge was spread & soon (yrs.) became common sense.
Just using that example, you could say: Common sense comes from knowledge but in a lot of cases, intuition plays a big part too. That small voice that says: Don't do that! OR Go for it!.
To break these down into similarities & differences, or even sciences, would depend on how each human thinks & the amt. of knowledge & common sense they each have. Even their ancestral brain might play a large part.
I am a lay person & intelligent but I rely on my common sense.

Mar 14 2013: Generally, science represents the very top quality information and knowledge available to us. Even so, not all scientifically derived knowledge is completely reliable. Some scientific results are better than others.
- +1
Science is limited to phenomena that can be reliably repeated and measured in the here and now.
Every day everyone uses information and knowledge that has not been gained or confirmed scientifically. Even in the twenty first century our survival and prosperity relies on non-scientific knowledge. The quality of this information and knowledge varies from useless to completely reliable. Unfortunately society has developed no standards for the quality of knowledge. The quality of knowledge and information is a matter of judgment, either of the individual or of a group. This leads some people to believe that all non-scientific information is unreliable and useless in public situations, particularly for making public policy. That attitude is baseless and is just as risky as the rejection of scientific results because they do not fit into some world view.
The proper use of science in the making of public policy is becoming an important issue. The issue should be expanded to how we judge the quality of any and all relevant knowledge. If we could develop a consensus on that issue, most arguments would fade away.

EQ (emotional intelligence quotient) is huge amount of "science" saved in our souls.
It is proved by our ancestors 10,000 years ago.

TXSMar 17 2013: Thanks for all your nice answers and since quite some friends talked of the extensive nature of the question, this time let's limit the discussion to the fact that KNOWLEDGE and definitely SCIENCE leads us to scientific method which is the basis for Research while common sense has no connection here and Knowledge is the main disturbing and more or less Abstract causing lots of pros and cons among scientists and philosophers...Mar 15 2013: Three overlapping views out of many. Now you have to look at valences, weigh, evaluate, and decide.

Father's Day Gifts
It's a problem as old as time itself: what presents should we buy for our Dad? Between birthdays and Christmas, this peculiarly complex issue arises most obviously around Father's Day. Impressively stoic when asked what they want, and often already owning every screwdriver and pair of socks under the sun, getting something they'll like and actually use is a perennial worry.
Inside our excellent collection of gifts for men - with something for even the most stubborn and difficult to buy for the man in your life - there is everything from geeky gadgets, funky homeware and novelty gifts to enable you to generate some awesome gift ideas to leave you feeling spoilt for choice.Is your dad a workaholic? Then get him some cool office gifts, like one of our comical mugs for his tea or coffee. Perhaps he's big into his sports - in that case why not get him a great experience day at a football ground or driving a fast car (boys love their toys, after all). Whatever you decide to pick up, make sure it is something unique and memorable to show your dad how much you love him!
