Mechanical engineer Maurizio Porfiri, of the Polytechnic Institute of New York University, designs robot fish. A few years ago, he found that real fish would mill about his aquatic robot, and now he's trying to understand why. His research suggests that it has less to do with how the robot looks, than how it makes fish feel.

802.11n Finally on Fast Track?
January 12, 2006
The upstart Enhanced Wireless Consortium says it has the backing to become the high-speed Wi-Fi standard of the future.
It was only in October of last year that the Enhanced Wireless Consortium (EWC) was formally announced by a number of Wi-Fi chip companies (though rumors had swirled since the summer). The EWC agenda was simple: create a high-speed 802.11n specification that would win approval sooner rather than later.
Maybe they were right. Or, at the very least, they've won a round, even if it didn't speed things up.
The 58-member group issued a media advisory last night stating that the Joint Proposal (JP) Team working to bring together the previously warring factions within the task group (World Wide Spectrum Efficiency (WWiSE) and TGn Sync, as well as the revived MITMOT proposal) voted 40 to 0 (with two ballots not cast) to adopt the EWC specification.
WWiSE and TGn Sync were in a stalemate throughout 2005 with neither able to get the 75 percent super-majority of votes needed to become the draft for the 802.11n standard. Because of the prolonged stalemate, under IEEE rules, even previous proposals like MITMOT became viable again. In July, the camps got approval to form the JP and work together. By then, the EWC was allegedly already working in the background despite the fact that the EWC's main member companies also had membership in the JP. Ancient Rome has nothing on the inner workings of an IEEE standards body.
The JP will spend the next two days finalizing the EWC's 802.11n proposal. If all goes as planned, presentation will formally be made to the Task Group N at its meeting next week in Hawaii, which is part of the overall 802.11 Working Group's bi-monthly gathering.
When EWC came on the scene, helmed by four big Wi-Fi chip makers Intel, Atheros, Broadcom and Marvell some saw it as existing mainly to undercut the market momentum of Airgo Networks.
Multiple in, multiple out (MIMO) technology is used by many companies to describe their wireless technology, but no matter what 802.11n proposal you see, Airgo's MIMO, in some form or another, is going to be a big part of the technology of 802.11n. The company is not waiting for 802.11n to be finalized to sell chips. Its silicon already powers lots of big-selling products from companies like Belkin, Netgear and Linksys.
Airgo CEO Greg Raleigh thought in October 2005 that EWC was out to sabotage the standards process. He said at the time, "We are disappointed at the approach being taken to try and create an interoperable standard that goes around the open process."
At the time, Raleigh accused EWC of delaying the JP's work, but said that in the end, "The JP group will form the right compromise." Still, he pointed out that "then there will be more changes," as the IEEE's groups don't work fast. Even with this 802.11n proposal potentially moving forward next week, a final specification won't be done for months, if not years.

This is my first pair that I got off of Eyebuydirect. I was skeptical at first thinking that I was going to get some cheaply made glasses. But when I received it in the mail I couldn't be more surprised! It is well crafted! It looks and feels great! My dad thought the glasses costs over $200. He was shocked when I told him I got it for [$]! Good buy! Definitely recommend!!
Color: Matte Navy; Size: L
I wasn't updated about the status of the glasses every step of the way and they came very soon! The glasses look exactly like they do online and they fit very well. I am very excited about them and I will definitely be buying more.

Discharge rate ("C") multiplied by capacity (mAh or Ah) gives you the maximum rated current you can draw from the battery. For a 30C 2200mAh battery, we have 30C x 2.2Ah = 66A of current. This number isn't really a hard limit, and most sport and trainer planes will never come near an appropriately-sized lipo's discharge limit.
Higher discharge ratings mean less internal resistance, which means the pack will maintain greater voltage under load, which results in more power at the motor. Note that a battery doesn't "push" current through a system. The motor will draw exactly what it needs to spin the prop at a given RPM. Even if the battery is capable of putting out those 66 amps, it can be used with a motor rated for like ten amps as long as that motor has an appropriate prop. |
Hey thank you both,,,so for this motor what c would I want im still little lost on that part ?
http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...50kv_785w.html |
"20c..30c what does it mean when looking at battery"In reality, it means almost nothing. There are no testing standards to which manufacturers must adhere when picking a C-rating for their product's label, so they're essentially free to make it up as they go along. Naturally, that means vastly over-inflated C-ratings which are practically meaningless, except perhaps if you're trying to gauge the probable relative performance of different lipo lines from the same manufacturer. This thread is technical, and not exactly meant for beginners, but if you really want to know the answer to the question in your thread's title, it's in there. The short version is that even the very best lipos struggle to maintain a true 30C current rate (which means being completely flat in two minutes!), and the 50C, 60C, 100C () ratings are pure marketing fantasy. Also, the "25C" line from one manufacturer may easily be better than a "30C" product from another, again because the way the ratings are determined is completely arbitrary. As C₄H₁₀ said, the battery's internal resistance (IR) is a much better indicator of its true potential and health, but only a handful of the more expensive chargers can measure IR presently. To make this more fun, manufacturers almost never publish their IR specs |
That motor has a 55A max current rating, with a 60A recommended ESC, so say the overall draw is going to max out at 60A, unless you over-prop it (not recommended!). To get a 20C battery to supply 60A, its capacity must be at least 3000mAh (3 x 20 = 60). Anything less, and the battery may not be able to sustain 20C for very long, or it won't last long if you regularly subject it to borderline harsh treatment. Lotsa current makes the battery heat up (because of its IR), which in turn makes it vent methane ("puff up"), which causes further erosion of its capabilities... You don't want to routinely subject a lipo to currents at the edge of its performance envelope. Another thing... Just because it was "20C" (real) when it was purchased, doesn't mean it's still 20C a few weeks or months later. A common mistake people make is to leave their lipos fully charged (4.20V/cell) and ready to go, so that they can leave home quickly on Flying Day. It's understandable, but the IR of a cell which is stored above 4.0V is rising all the time - more quickly if it's full or close to it. IR never comes down again, so that "20C" battery may in fact be 17C or worse a few weeks later, if it sat fully charged. Charge your batteries the day you intend to use them, and discharge the ones which come home without being depleted for some reason. (3.85V/cell is a commonly accepted safe storage voltage.) This is especially important whenever you're intending to push a drive system to its limits. |

Yeah wasnt doing much flying when I lived there. They did have gliders going up on the weekends somtimes at the RAFF base that you could go up in for like 50.00 or something cheap like that, I never did I so wish I would have. That was a really nice place to live.I was only there bit over a year,but what a beautiful country you have.

the black desert house by marc atlan + oller & pejic

all images courtesy of the black desert house / marc atlan design
designed by renowned creative director marc atlan, alongside architecture office oller & pejic, 'the black desert house' offers expansive vistas across joshua tree national park in california. the low-profile dwelling forms a desirable and distinctive desert retreat, providing constantly changing panoramas of color, light and shade.
centered around a external courtyard, the kitchen and dining areas become the focal point of the project's interior, before a deeply tiered stairway leads to a sunken living room where soaring panes of glass frame views of the impressive terrain. throughout the residence black walls, midnight quartz, high-gloss anthracite and darkened steel form the backdrop for the carefully selected use of color.
the low-profile structure is set amid outcrops of prehistoric boulders
photo © marc angeles, 2013
at the south-eastern corner of the plot, the home's three bedrooms open out onto an angled black-tiled pool, where the adjoining patio is sheltered between the house and a boulder formation. at night the rocks can be gently illuminated from below.
despite being located only thirty minutes from palm springs, the serene and mystical atmosphere allows occupants and guests to feel as if they are completely detached from the rigors of modern day life. 'the black desert house' is currently available for professional location rentals, such as fashion and editorial photo shoots, advertising campaigns and TV and film production.

I understand the need for Hollywood drama but the house would have been 'cooler' in at least two ways if it was not Stealth Fighter black.
Bravo – a house that dares to blend in black with the sand. Awesome.
is it actually built on the park's premises?
Black pearl….
The black and the sand colors don't blend. The black surface will be extremely hot in the summer time. Make the color adobe and blend in with the rocks and sand and be cool. The black is jarring.
All true..
Feels kinda lonely out there.
Bravo, Black? I love the house, and it even looks dramatic in black, but it's going to be 120 in the summer time. What is the thinking here? When does architecture stop being so smitten with itself and it "dares" (yes, let's use the word) to reflect reality and its relationship to its location and the needs demanded by that location. How many gallons of fossil fuel will it take to keep this house cool or even warm in the winter? The desert can be very cold in the winter. I mean this house is really terrific but how dumb can you be?
The sun. Is it that the black does not absorb the sun's heat? My base reaction is that it's gorgeous, but it's got
to be unreasonably hot. I mean really hot. The black is going to absorb and hold the desert heat. Down the road
there have to be significant repairs. All the materials are going to dry out faster than normal.
This house looks absolutely beautiful. Me, here behind me computer watching at the pics, do really enjoy it. And i'm glad i don't have to experience the climate that will reign inside this oven/freezer-combo. I suggest the architects to use a good 3D software if they like producing nice pictures, it's cheaper than actually building the thing.
Hey! Now this house is cool (possibly an oxymoron) It's brave to say the least but looking at the photos it's more a charcoal than jet black offering changes in hue according to light variations hence getting the straight black effect as well. So what if it's black & stealthy! The contrasts it presents are awesome & besides with technology today, why not take advantage of what's available with insulation techniques such as ceramic paints using dark colors but offering a cut of several degrees plus all other forms of insulation. As for fossil fuel consumption.. That's what solar power is for! It's out in the sticks so why wouldn't the house be totally self sufficient. Good on you Marc, I think "Well Done!"
too bad i arrived at the comments too late… but for all the people who are speculating about the color making the house a giant heat sink… The roof is where the bulk of the sun's energy is directed and absorbed…This house has a white roof (incidentally, in this location, one of the only houses to have such…) What the sun sees is a white roof.
Since the house is at approx 4000 ft elevation during the winter when the sun's angle is lower, the building can absorb more heat.
A lot of you are too conservative. I love it because of its black stealth look. Great contrast to the natural surroundings!
There was another black house in the area about 5 years ago- Rosamuerta- that has all kinds of texture, details and ideas that really makes something interesting with black. This is just a normal modern house painted black – a bad copy of Maltzan's white one- it looks like a superficial pose- like a goth kid self-consciously hanging around the mall.

It's my own fault that I did not read the description for the size. I was so excited to find a plain hot pink blanket that I simply ordered it immediately. It arrived and I was dissapointed to find that it is the size of a lovie, i.e., small enough to hold in your hand and cover my newborn's tush, and nowhere near big enough to use for a stroller, carseat, or in bed...

When a woman is beautiful and sexy almost any man would enjoy fucking her. I find you to be very desirable and fuckable. I would love to fill your pussy with pleasure in person. I would then do everything to give you the sexual pleasure you want and deserve. If I can get you to climax while my cock is enjoying your nice pussy I would be happy to fuck you again. I think you could give my cock as much pleasure as I want to give your pussy. The only thing we have to do to have great sex is to meet, kiss, fondle, suck, and fuck. Let's enjoy what we crave.

Norman Butler is a widower, and has a grown-up son who does not live at home. Through prudent saving over many years, he has built up several pension policies with four companies. He has also built up a portfolio of shares, gilts and unit trusts, and he now needs to maximise his income from all of these sources.
Norman approached the companies directly but found the array of available options highly confusing. Then he looked for an independent adviser to help him. He also wanted advice on his other investments, so he looked for a company which he believed would offer impartial advice and help on everything.
The adviser: Gareth Tregidon, Financial planner at Chartwell Investment Management Ltd, 9 Kingsmead Square, Bath BA1 2AB (01225 321700)
The advice: Norman has identified that he needs advice on two main aspects of his finances, namely the conversion of the pensions into an income, and an analysis of his existing investment portfolio.
The pensions he holds are mainly Retirement Annuity contracts taken out before the newer Personal Pension Plans came into being in 1988. The first step is to ascertain whether or not any of them had a "Guaranteed Annuity Rate" attached to the benefits. In previous years, to help in the marketing of their products, some insurance companies provided a guaranteed minimum income from a pension plan invested with them.
This contrasts with the more recent trend which does not guarantee any particular minimum payment, and simply relies upon the investment performance of the funds and the annuity rates available at the time an income is required.
The rates which were guaranteed were far lower than annuity levels being offered to people taking their pension benefits at the time, and the companies believed that the guarantees would never be required. As annuity rates have fallen so significantly over the last few years they have fallen below these guaranteed levels in most cases.
On further review, of the four plans held, only one offered a guaranteed annuity rate, and this was significantly higher than the rates available elsewhere. Two of the other companies' rates were not competitive, and the fourth company was offering a competitive annuity rate themselves.
For Norman, his best option is therefore to leave the first plan with the company which issued it, in order to obtain the guaranteed income level, to transfer the second and third plans to another annuity provider, and to leave the final plan with the company concerned, due to their higher annuity rate.
But as complicated as this might at first seem, there was another element which needs to be considered. At retirement most pension funds offer a tax-free lump sum payment in addition to the pension income, and all of Norman's plans do this.
We therefore need to consider whether it would be beneficial taking these lump sums and reinvesting the money. Bearing in mind Norman's requirement to maximise his income, it is therefore worth considering taking the cash and using it to take a Purchased Life Annuity. Purchased Life Annuities are similar to the annuity bought with the pension funds, with the exception of the way they are taxed.
The Inland Revenue treats the monthly income partly as interest and partly as capital, and tax is applied only to the interest element. This means that income derived from a Purchased Life Annuity tends to be higher than from a pension annuity, which is all taxable.
For Norman, it was beneficial for him to take the lump sums from two of the plans. These sums can be reinvested to generate a monthly income payment for the rest of his life. The net effect of looking in detail at all of these options would be to increase the net monthly income by around 20 per cent per annum.
In comparison, reviewing Norman's investment portfolio was a simpler task. The main changes we suggest are due to the emphasis he has on a small number of key holdings, which account for over 60 per cent of the total.
This reliance upon just six companies, as good as they are in their own right, brings with it a greater degree of risk both in terms of the capital value and the dividend income derived from them.
In general, Norman has held these shares for some considerable time and built up sizeable capital gains. He does want to simplify his investments over the next few years, so we would recommend a structured program of realising some of the profits as and when we are able to minimise the potential Capital Gains Tax.
This will take time. But the end result will be a more manageable portfolio, spread more evenly and invested to generate a high but sustainable income well into the future.

Fort Point is a masonry seacoast fortification located at the southern side of the Golden Gate at the entrance to San Francisco Bay. This fort was completed just before the American Civil War by the United States Army, to defend San Francisco Bay against hostile warships. The fort is now protected as Fort Point National Historic Site, a United States National Historic Site administered by the National Park Service as a unit of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area.
In 1769 Spain occupied the San Francisco area and by 1776 had established the area's first European settlement, with a mission and a presidio. To protect against encroachment by the British and Russians, Spain fortified the high white cliff at the narrowest part of the bay's entrance, where Fort Point now stands. The Castillo de San Joaquin, built in 1794, was an adobe structure housing nine to thirteen cannons.[2]
Mexico won independence from Spain in 1821, gaining control of the region and the fort, but in 1835 the Mexican army moved to Sonoma leaving the castillo's adobe walls to crumble in the wind and rain. On July 1, 1846, after the Mexican-American War broke out between Mexico and the United States, U.S. forces, including Captain John Charles Fremont, Kit Carson and a band of 10 followers, captured and occupied the empty castillo and spiked (disabled) the cannons.
U.S. era[edit]
Following the United States' victory in 1848, California was annexed by the U.S. and became a state in 1850. The gold rush of 1849 had caused rapid settlement of the area, which was recognized as commercially and strategically valuable to the United States. Military officials soon recommended a series of fortifications to secure San Francisco Bay. Coastal defenses were built at Alcatraz Island, Fort Mason, and Fort Point.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers began work on Fort Point in 1853. Plans specified that the lowest tier of artillery be as close as possible to water level so cannonballs could ricochet across the water's surface to hit enemy ships at the water-line.[3] Workers blasted the 90-foot (27 m) cliff down to 15 feet (4.6 m) above sea level. The structure featured seven-foot-thick walls and multi-tiered casemated construction typical of Third System forts. It was sited to defend the maximum amount of harbor area. While there were more than 30 such forts on the East Coast, Fort Point was the only one on the West Coast. In 1854 Inspector General Joseph K. Mansfield declared "this point as the key to the whole Pacific Coast...and it should receive untiring exertions".
A crew of 200, many unemployed miners, labored for eight years on the fort. In 1861, with war looming, the army mounted the fort's first cannon. Colonel Albert Sidney Johnston, commander of the Department of the Pacific, prepared Bay Area defenses and ordered in the first troops to the fort. Kentucky-born Johnston then resigned his commission to join the Confederate Army; he was killed at the Battle of Shiloh in 1862.
Fort Point and the Civil War[edit]
Throughout the Civil War, artillerymen at Fort Point stood guard for an enemy that never came. The Confederate raider CSS Shenandoah planned to attack San Francisco, but on the way to the harbor the captain learned that the war was over; it was August 1865, months after General Lee surrendered.
Severe damage to similar forts on the Atlantic Coast during the war - Fort Sumter in South Carolina and Fort Pulaski in Georgia - challenged the effectiveness of masonry walls against rifled artillery. Troops soon moved out of Fort Point, and it was never again continuously occupied by the army. The fort was nonetheless important enough to receive protection from the elements. In 1869 a granite seawall was completed. The following year, some of the fort's cannon were moved to Battery East on the bluffs nearby, where they were more protected. In 1882 Fort Point was officially named Fort Winfield Scott after the famous hero from the war against Mexico. The name never caught on and was later applied to an artillery post at the Presidio.
Into a new century[edit]
In 1892, the army began constructing the new Endicott System concrete fortifications armed with steel, breech-loading rifled guns. Within eight years, all 103 of the smooth-bore cannons at Fort Point had been dismounted and sold for scrap. The fort, moderately damaged in the 1906 earthquake, was used over the next four decades for barracks, training, and storage, however, in 1913, part of the interior wall was removed by the army in their short-lived attempt to make the fort the army detention barracks using soldier and prisoner labor[citation needed]. The detention barracks were later built on Alcatraz Island and was used until becoming a federal prison. Soldiers from the 6th U.S. Coast Artillery were stationed there during World War II to guard minefields and the anti-submarine net that spanned the Golden Gate.
Preserving Fort Point[edit]
In 1926 the American Institute of Architects proposed preserving the fort for its outstanding military architecture. Funds were unavailable, and the ideas languished. Plans for the Golden Gate Bridge in the 1930s called for the fort's removal, but Chief Engineer Joseph Strauss redesigned the bridge to save the fort. "While the old fort has no military value now," Strauss said, "it remains nevertheless a fine example of the mason's art.... It should be preserved and restored as a national monument." The fort is situated directly below the southern approach to the bridge, underneath an arch that supports the roadway.
Preservation efforts were revived after World War II. On October 16, 1970, President Richard Nixon signed a bill creating Fort Point National Historic Site.
Landmark status[edit]
Fort Point is designated as California Historical Landmark #82, officially listed under the site's original name, Castillo De San Joaquín.[1]
The rocky point north of the fort produces waves, in the winter months, that are popular with surfers.[4]

It's been a very long week for the once and future members of the Union High football program in Roosevelt, Utah. On Friday night, they were disbanded. On Saturday morning they learned what they needed to do to re-gain eligibility and re-start the team. On Monday the community service and citizenship classes, taught by their coach, began.
Now, on Friday, all but nine of the players who were universally and unilaterally suspended have been reinstated, just in time for the school's Friday night game against Emery High from nearby Castle Dale, Utah. In the end, head coach Matt Labrum re-instated 71 players after a long week of work.
They earned the right to put the jersey back on by digging weeds, spending time at senior citizen centers and even performing additional "services" for their families.
As Labrum told Utah TV network KSL and the Deseret News, the process of reinstating the players was not an easy one, largely because of those who have still been left behind.
"We have enough that we'll be playing all the games this week," Labrum told KSL. "It was mixed. It's hard. You have mixed emotions because some guys are so elated they have their jerseys back, but maybe the guy next to him wasn't getting his. It was very mixed. But I think the guys handled it well."
While the players who weren't reinstated may be disappointed now, Labrum made it clear that they would still get another shot at being a member of his football team … if they earn it.
"It doesn't mean they're off the team," Labrum told KSL. "It means they won't be playing this week. Most of them had done 85 or 90 percent of what they needed to."
And just as players return to the football field, Labrum insists that the national exposure his program has received here at Yahoo and elsewhere will only serve to reinforce the values the team has worked to instill both at home and to a much larger audience.
"It's really quite overwhelming," he said. "It's been a positive thing all around.
"We told them, 'This isn't just Utah. We have an opportunity to be an inspiration to an entire nation by doing the right things, by following through -- and not just this week. We need to continue to do the right things."

Doorman is a collection of PSGI middlewares that are designed to perform authentication jobs. It stores authentication info in the session or env, you just configure it properly.
builder { enable "DoormanOpenID"; enable "DoormanTwitter"; enable "DoormanAuthentication", authenticator => \&auth; sub { my $env = shift; my $doorman = Doorman->new($env); # "user" and "admin" are scope names # current_<scope> are dynamic methods. # return undef value when the scope is not authenticated. my $user = $doorman->current_user; my $admin = $doorman->current_admin; $doorman->is_user_sign_in; } }
Doorman put a lot of objects to $env
in the request life cycle. They are named like this:
- doorman.${scope} - doorman.${scope}.${middleware} - doorman.${scope}.${middleware}.${name}
is, by default, "users"
if not specified. Mulptile scopes can exist in the same time. For example, "users"
and "admin"
scopes will take $env-
{"doorman.users"}> and $env-
{"doorman.admin"}>, respectively. They are objects of Doorman::Scope class. These Doorman::Scope
objects are responsible to provide URI paths that are responsive by middleware objects.
Scope objects have 3 methods:
sign_up_path sign_in_path sign_out_path
These paths are named after the scope name. The scope name "users" will provide these paths
/users/sign_up /users/sign_in /users/sign_out
And for the scope "admins", they will be
/admins/sign_up /admins/sign_in /admins/sign_out
Your PSGI app can enable multiple doorman authentication middlewares to allow your app visitor to sign in with one of them.
enable "DoormanAuthentication", authenticator => \&my_authenticator; enable "DoormanOpenID";
When it is about to authenticae the session, Doorman middlewares are all implemented following these policies:
1. If all the required parameters are missing, skip. 2. Otherwise, perform the real authentication event though it is likely to fail 3. If it does fail, store the error status and message in C<$env>
The authentication chain is iterated in the same order you specify in the code.
Depending on your sign-in form design, you may choose to have multiple forms for each authentication method, or you may design to have one big form with all credential fields, say, username, password, and openid. Visitors either fill openid, or username and password, or maybe all of them.
If so, it is recommended that you put DoormanOpenID
at the end, for the response of POSTing a openid URL, is to perform a redirect to openid server. The original username and password will be missing by the time it is redirected back from the openid server.
For example code that facilitate chaining, see examples/openid-with-local.psgi
in the distribution tarball.

More than 70 of you wrote comments—mostly in support of—my recent blog post opposing a New York state bill that would make short-term sublets illegal. The story was picked up by USA Today, Drudge Report, The New York Times, The Village Voice, London's Guardian, Virginia Postrel, and Gothamist.
Well, Governor David Paterson has to make up his mind within the next 24 hours or so.
Interestingly, Stephen Kaufer, the CEO & Founder of TripAdvisor, has pleaded with the governor to veto the bill. Arthur Frommer, who needs no introduction, also hoped the governor would veto. Yesterday, more than 500 protesters gathered outside of City Hall, mainly bed and breakfast owners and private homeowners. They dramatically outnumbered the roughly 50 supporters of the bill, mostly hotel owners, who were there as well.

In 1908 William Russell Roesch, my great grandfather, built a new farmhouse five miles west of his Highland Avenue home in Eau Gallie, Florida. He named the street leading to his home Aurora Road. The name came from Aurora, Illinois, "The City of Lights". it was one of the first cities in the United States to implement an all-electric street lighting system in 1881 and it made quite the impression on the Judge when he saw it for the first time. (William was called Judge because he was the Mayor of Eau Gallie.)
His new home was a modest three bedroom home painted white with a porch across the front. It had a white picket fence with a gate that opened and shut with a latch. Once inside the gate, a dirt driveway led directly to a one car garage. William was one of a very few people at this time to own a vehicle, a wooden platform truck with wood paneling that he always parked inside the garage.
The roads were dusty dry sand and hub deep. High clearance vehicles were needed on account of the grass ridge in the middle. The roads were impassable for most vehicles. Oil pans and axles were destroyed on the Model T.
Behind the house and behind the garage lay the land for farming. He had chickens and two cows. He grew squash, cucumbers, green beans, tomatoes, peanuts and watermelon. There were also citrus trees of oranges, tangerines and grapefruit.
Every year he would set up a long table on the right side yard and load it up with freshly picked watermelon for family, friends and neighbor to enjoy a big juicy feast.
He would use his truck to take his produce to market, and every week he delivered a variety of produce to his daughter's home.

Hoosier Park Racing & Casino's 2012 Thoroughbred meet came to a close on Saturday, October 27th awarding Fernando De La Cruz with his first leading rider title at Hoosier Park Racing & Casino. The Peruvian jockey won 68 races to finish nine victories in front of Hoosier Park's two-time defending leading jockey winner, Leandro Goncalves.
De La Cruz earned more than $1.3 million in purse earnings during the 64-day meet.
In the midst of his best season to date, De La Cruz has already posted over $3.1 million in purse earnings and ridden 155 winners in 2012. He has also posted four consecutive seasons with purse earnings toppling the $2 million mark. In 2011 alone, De La Cruz bankrolled over $3.5 million in purse earnings with 170 trips to the winner's circle, many of which were accumulated between Hoosier Park and Indiana Downs.
De La Cruz has relocated to Churchill Downs before heading to Tampa Bay Downs for the winter. De La Cruz palns to return to the Indiana circuit in the spring when racing resumes.
"I'm very thankful to all the trainers that gave me the chance to ride some great horses," De La Cruz noted. "Indiana has been very good to me and my family and I can't wait to get back."
In the trainer ranks, Tom Amoss won an allowance optional claiming event with Senor Rain on the closing day card to edge out three-time Hoosier Park leading trainer, Gary Patrick by one victory. With 25 trips to the winner's circle, Amoss saddled the winners of over $506,000 in purse earnings throughout the meet to take home his second leading trainer title at Hoosier Park.
A native of New Orleans, Louisiana, Amoss has nine previous leading trainer titles to his credit with titles at Churchill Downs, Ellis Park, Kentucky Downs and the Fairgrounds.
Amoss, 50, has started more than 10,700 horses and has won over 2,400 of those starts. For 12 years in a row, he has won more than 100 races, and in 2011 Amoss sent out a career-best 163 winners, bankrolling over $4.3 million in purse earnings. The multiple Graded Stakes winning trainer has recently worked as a racing analyst for TVG and ESPN.
Amoss was followed in the standings by Gary Patrick with 24 wins and Walter Abner, who ended the season with 23 wins.
Gary Patrick didn't go home empty-handed as he took home the leading owner trophy with 22 victories. A native of Ohio, the trophy notched Patrick's third leading owner title in the 18-year history of Hoosier Park. Patrick also earned leading owner honors during the 1998, and 2011 seasons. Henry Mast's Mast Thoroughbred, LLC finished second with 11 wins.

Advice Roundup
The Week's Worst Relationship Advice
-Judy McGuire
Though we all speak the same language, the difference between British and American advice columnists is wider than the 3,000 or so miles that separate us. Basically, we Yanks are a whole lot less polite. See for yourself . . .
This stay-at-home mom's partner of 20 years has two other secret girlfriends, another house (where he keeps all his expensive toys), ignores their children and she's wondering if she should stay?
Daily Mail columnist Zelda West-Meads correctly points out that this cad is no doubt planning to leave her as soon as the children come of age, but is less adamant that this woman should see a lawyer – or as they say across the pond, a "solicitor" – stat. Not only that, but she should start squirreling money away immediately, make sure her name is on the deed of the house she's living in, and get him to pay for classes so she'll have some job skills once she gets the inevitable heave-ho. Better yet, with a job and a secure future, she'll be in the position to kick him to the curb. So much more satisfying to be the dumper, especially when it's so richly deserved.
The Guardian's Pamela Stephenson Connelly is also very circumspect in her advice to a gentleman who is concerned that his wife's new short haircut (four days before her wedding) means she doesn't want to have sex with him. Why this concerns him more than the fact that she refuses to have sex with him and calls him "childish" for wanting it, I can't figure out.
Connelly says, "Her low desire might have physiological, psychological or other causes that require treatment; perhaps she would be willing to investigate – with your support." All very nice, but his wife has already made it clear that she doesn't seem to think she has a problem. I agree that he should speak to her – calmly and clearly – but he also needs to seriously consider whether he's prepared to remain in a sex-free zone for the rest of his life.

Mother's Day Simnel Cake (Old N' Traditional)
There is a Jewish proverb that says 'God could not be everywhere, so he made mothers'.
There cannot be a more apt way to describe what a mother does for her young ones. This mother's day it is time to make her something special for all the special things she had been doing for us all these years.
In the old days, 'Mothering Sunday' was a time put aside for relaxation and enjoyment during the long Lenten fast. It is what we now know as 'Mother's day'. In those days young girls often worked or served as maids in rich households to fend for their families. However come the 'Mothering Sunday', they were given time off by their masters to visit their mothers on this special day and they would bake a simnel cake to present as a gift.
As you good folks all know, I'm a no-egg-in-the-cake veggie and love my egg free cakes here is a delightful and lovely simnel cake recipe that is fruity and delicious.
Simnel Cake Recipe
• 110g/4oz butter or margarine
• 110g/4oz soft brown sugar
• egg substitue, equivalent to 3 eggs
• 150g/5oz plain flour
• pinch of salt
• ½ tsp ground mixed spice (optional)
• 350g/12oz mixed raisins, currants and sultanas
• 55g/2oz chopped mixed peel
• ½ lemon, grated rind only
• 1-2 tbsp apricot jam
• butter, melted, for glazing
For the almond paste: (Marzipan)
• 125g/4oz caster sugar
• 125g/4oz ground almonds
• ½ tsp almond essence
• egg substitute
• To make the almond paste: place the sugar and ground almonds in a bowl.
• Add enough egg substitute to give a fairly soft consistency.
• Add the almond essence and knead for a minute until the paste is smooth and pliable.
• Roll out a third of the almond paste to make a circle 18cm/7in in diameter and reserve the remainder for topping of the cake.
• Preheat oven to 140C/275F.
• To make the cake: cream the butter and sugar together until pale and fluffy.
• Gradually beat in the egg substitute until well incorporated and then sift in the flour, salt and spice (if using) a little at a time.
• Finally, add the dried fruit, peel and grated lemon rind and mix into the mixture well.
• Put half the mixture in a greased and lined 18cm/7in cake tin.
• Smooth the top and cover with the circle of almond paste.
• Add the rest of the cake mixture and smooth the top leaving a slight dip in the centre to allow for the cake to rise.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 1½ hours.
• Once baked, remove from the oven and leave to cool.
• When you are ready to decorate the cake, preheat the oven to 180C/350F.
• Brush the top of the cooled cake with the apricot jam.
• Divide the remainder of the almond paste into two; roll out a circle to cover the top of the cake with one half and form 11 small balls with the other half.
• Place the circle of paste on the jam and set the balls round the edge.
• Return the cake to the preheated oven for about 10 minutes or long enough for the almond paste to brown.
This recipe for simnel cake serves 10 to 12 individuals. Adjust the proportion of the ingredients to your serving needs and enjoy!
