A new documentary following a running group for homeless people in the notorious area of downtown Los Angeles arrives in London for preview screenings this week, and the Big Issue is delighted to be on board as one of the film's media partners.
Skid Row Marathon follows a running group formed by Craig Mitchell, a 61-year-old superior court judge who runs alongside homeless people and recovering addicts every week.

Recovery and running go hand in hand
As a keen runner himself, Judge Mitchell offered to lead the Midnight Mission's residents on regular runs around Los Angeles. Filmmakers Gabi and Mark Hayes spent three years tracking the group's progress – producing this inspirational documentary.
Skid Row Marathon will then be in cinemas nationwide for a special one-night-only release on May 9 – with tickets and information about screenings available here.
"The film was very important for our participants because it conveyed to them that their lives are worth chronicling, they have a story that other people need to hear," says Judge Mitchell.
"Oftentimes, we try to avoid looking at people who are homeless or addicted to drugs. We don't want to know their stories. The film provided the exact opposite."

"I used to run when I was younger until my addiction wouldn't allow me to do anything," says Ben Shirley, a musician whose addictions led him to Skid Row. "Recovery and running go hand in hand."
Runners from the group have now competed at marathons in Accra, Rome and Jerusalem, as well as in LA.

Foilborne boats likely to be a theme.Adamhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-29859768.post-17314382215484986492017-10-28T13:06:00.000+01:002017-10-28T13:06:22.587+01:00Foiling A ClassBack in the UK, post AC, and time to catch up on so many things!

I thought I'd fire up the blog again, but it might be a little bit of a random selection of topics initially. Time for the blogs to make a comeback.

Life was so hectic up until the end of the AC that I didn't get a chance to finish off my Moth upgrades. With no Moth sailing for years, and Garda straight after the Cup, I focused my summer sailing plans on another foiling boat; the A class.

I'd been following the A's for a while to be honest. They had always appealed with their light weight efficiency.

During my time in Valencia actually I'd been pondering a foiling cat project before foiling cats were a thing! I found a perfect old boat to convert and got it to the base. After a few evening sails with the small fleet from the office I realised what a great light wind boat it was, and decided to keep this one as a traditional A, and look elsewhere for my foiling conversion boat.

That project is another story, that hopefully I now will have time to finish, but back to the more normal A.. It eventually went to San Fran, and did a little bit of sailing there, with various upgrades along the way. Firstly to curved boards, and then tips on those boards to enable it to foil.

The AC workload got in the way and I needed to move the boat on before heading to Bermuda, but I followed the foiling developments with interest.

I'd kept in touch with Gonzalo Redondo, who was with us at Artemis for the 34th AC, and he'd been putting a nice package together with Jakub Kopylowicz of Exploder boats in Poland, so I ordered one for after Bermuda.

Rigging a new boat at the Worlds is never ideal, but Stevie Brewin and Simon Nelson had been stars and given me plenty of pointers ahead of time.

The Worlds was fun to be racing again. I had moments up at the front of the fleet, and some near the back! Speed was good enough I just needed to get off the start line! 21st overall was the end result.

I'd opted to go for the shorter mast, and lower CE mainsail, because I think that is the direction the class will go with foiling. (And it was quite nice for my weight!) I struggled a bit in the light, but I think that was more in set-up, and it was early days.

Only a week or so after the Worlds it was straight into the UK Nationals at Stokes Bay. Two drifting first days demonstrated how good the UK fleet is in the light, and how fast the classic boats still are! I got to experiment with my set-up a bit more than I was comfortable to do at the Worlds, and I found another gear in the light which was useful. As the wind got into foiling range I was in my comfort zone, and won every race in which I could foil downwind.

With the Worlds in Weymouth in 2019, and the Nationals here in 2018 I'm looking forward to a load more racing in the class, and pushing forward with development ideas.

Barts Bash was next on the regatta list, which resulted in a battle of the Star squad. John and Anna won in the Nacra 17, with me in second, and Iain in the Star in third. No foiling for me in this race, but at least the A cat in this stuff is quite pleasant. The Moths were battling with the Oppies and Mirrors!

More detailed photos of the boat soon. The modern A cat with mainsheet and traveller hidden inside a double surface tramp is quite nice. If I was racing an F18, I'd be taking a much closer look at what is going on in the A cats. It is not just about decksweeper sails and foiling.

So to finish off with a general update, so I can dive into some more boat related stuff in future posts, I'm taking a nice break from the AC. There is always a natural break in between cycles, but having been non stop for the last 7 years in the AC bubble it is refreshing to take a step away. With a return to monohulls, there are others more qualified than me to be involved early so I'll watch and see how things develop.

I'm enjoying being home, and working on a number of design projects alongside a load of British Olympic squad member coaching.

I've got a new Mach 2, but I've had got a few upgrade topics sketched in the notebook. I figured I'd dive right in and do most of them in one hit before getting back on the water.

It is fair to say the Exocet has established itself as the dominate boat at the moment. It has shown its pace for a while, but only recently won a Worlds.

To combat this, a number of upgrades have appeared across the Mach 2 fleet.

Not all of these have been done all in one boat yet, so I've taken the hacksaw and dremel to mine.

Bowsprit. Control benefits through the spacing of the wand from the main foil. Becoming universal across the front of the fleet. Not a standard Mach 2 item (yet), but a few kits and custom options around. (Note: this was originally tried by John Ilett at the Garda Worlds in 07)

Lower king post. Lowering the rig for RM gains. A number of boats have been doing this. Some with shortening the mast as well to have the measurement band just above the boom.

No compression struts. Not many have done this as the narrow beam of the Mach2 in the bow area is not ideal for the required support but there is a nice windage gain.

Fairings. Originally fairings were added to the existing platform, but with the best way to reduce drag being to get rid of the item in question some of the areas where fairings were added are now removed ( comp struts and high king posts for example). Rear beam fairings have featured in the past, but have often been impractical. Small aero gain, but they look good! The aft wing bar connection on the M2 has always looked a bit messy, with the bars straight into the hull being a neater solution. New deck and internal structure required though, so we are into bigger mods.

No rear strop. Another benefit of doing new stiffer rear wingbars is the windage gain of removing the aft strop.

Bow modification. The dreadnought bow does nothing for you when foiling other than use up some of your allowed overall length. Trimming the bow back to a vertical stem, the length recovered there can be added to the transom, and the gantry can be made longer, increasing foil spacing. Approx 85mm can be gained in foil spacing.

And a few other upgrades planned as well....

Photos coming soon.

And another year passes….. Wow really been in a bubble here.<o:p></o:p>

Not doing so well on his Blog lark. I'm not a great facebook poster either, and I don't do twitter so I'd better get back into this blog. <o:p></o:p>

So plenty to report in the world of foilborne adventures. The AC continues to keep me incredibly busy. We upgraded our original AC45 foiler with a new incarnation, and then followed that with a sistership. The "Turbos" are quite a weapon of a boat and would beat an AC72 round a course now. Firmly set up in Bermuda now, and it is quite a foiling boat playground!

The main project at the moment is my new commuter boat. Living near the water now, and with our base being in the middle of the Great Sound, a commute to work via water seemed like a good idea. I've done it a few times now by kayak which is nice, but it was time to get a powerboat. Chunky plastic boats with big engines was the trend, and not really my thing, but then I remembered a Paul Bieker designed kit I'd seen a few years ago. Efficient hull, wooden construction, small outboard that is good on fuel. So with a strange bug to go straight into another build project after finishing my kayak, I ordered a kit. I did all the flat panel and prep work in Alameda, and then I've been finishing it off in Bermuda. It looks like a boat now, and is into the final stages of sanding and painting.<o:p></o:p>

In Moth world I bought a new boat for the Melbourne Worlds, but I was far too busy in Alameda so didn't attend. I've only recently found time to even rig the boat, and it will go in the water soon. I think the Bermuda regatta in December will be the focus. Quite a few little upgrades and mods planned…<o:p></o:p>

My foiling A cat has been good fun, but sadly not everything could fit in the container over here. I did a full foiling conversion on an old Flyer 2, taking it out of class by sticking some extra tips to the daggerboards and making it into a foiler. It was fun to learn a new flying boat, and I'd like to do more in the class. Nice to see many of the things I've had in my sketch book for a while appear on some of the new boats this year.<o:p></o:p>

I've got another foiling cat project I've had sitting in the background for a while now. I drew it up back in 2010 before this whole foiling cat thing really kicked off. I think the concept has stood the test of time though and I haven't changed anything from those original drawings. I just need to find the time to finish it. It is based on an A cat platform, but will be supercharged and for two people. Full blog post on that coming soon, but here is a teaser:<o:p></o:p>

A project at the end of last year was a place to store all my watercraft. I bought a 20ft container, fitted shelves and a workbench, and now have my own mini workshop. With a solar panel on the roof, I'm totally off the grid, and self-sufficient.<o:p></o:p>

For the trip to Bermuda I had a Moth, Moth wing, kayak, A class, and all the panels for the PT Skiff. (Oh and some furniture thrown in as well.)<o:p></o:p>

Not sure when I'll post again, but I miss the days of Moth blogging. I'm thinking Instagram may be my platform of choice. I'm more of a photos person.<o:p></o:p>
Adamhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-29859768.post-70290986460526657622015-07-08T06:12:00.000+01:002015-07-08T06:12:43.298+01:00I'm back!Hello World! Okay time to get the blog back in action.

So I am fortunate enough to be heavily involved in a fascinating period of hydrofoil development as the 35th AC gathers pace. Smaller boats than last time yes, but seriously cool.

Outside of this there are still many interesting foilborne adventures going on. Small catamaran foiling has taken off with numerous products in the market now.

I regret being so busy in a way because I've been working on a two man foiling cat since before the last AC took flight. Just haven't had a chance to finish it off. The concept hasn't changed since my first sketches, but more on that another time....

In a more traditional vain I dabbled with the A cat. Initially a great boat for evening sea breeze sailing in Valencia, it was upgraded to a foiling package in San Fran. (I'll post pics soon) Although not on par with the Moth yet it has been really interesting following developments in that class.

My most recent project has been somewhere to store all my toys, so I bought a 20ft container and converted it into my own little workshop. Sure I've got access to an old airplane hanger here, but I wanted my own space. Workbench down one side, shelves on the other, A cat in the roof, kayak and Moth wing on the wall, and Moth box on the floor. Oh and solar panels ordered last night to be totally off the grid.

How can it have been that long? Then I saw my last post was in May 2013, and remembered rather vividly why I haven't had much of an online presence. We've been in a bit of a bubble here since that tragic month.

I cannot express quite so eloquently as many have done online my thoughts of Bart, but he was a good friend and will be greatly missed.

While it was hard to think about 72 sailing for a while after that, there was an amazing effort by the team to regroup and get back on the water. It was sad for the event that we were not ready to compete, but our battle was to just make it back out onto that race course. We gave Luna Rossa a run for their money, getting closer by each race. The final was great to watch. ETNZ with an early advantage that was ground down by Oracle as they learnt their boat. Foiling wingsailed catamarans match racing at over 40 knots - who would ever have thought we'd get an AC final like that?!

During the AC final I went back to the UK to watch the C Class cats battle it out at a smaller scale. I'd wanted to do a foiling one for a while so it was great to see Groupama and Hydros looking so impressive up on foils against the conventional fleet. Lake Geneva in 2015 should be interesting.

From Falmouth it was on to Hawaii for the Moth Worlds. Once again I hadn't done much training time, but it was a venue not to be missed, and nice to see what the state of the fleet was.

The standard continues to improve, and this year was hard with 80 boats on one light wind startline. Having not raced for several years was a slight weakness for my starting!

While the Mach 2's dominated the numbers, and took out the podium, the Exocet was a worthy opponent in the conditions we saw. Those high aspect ratio foils had them foiling really early, and tacking looked so easy. Bora was confident in his kit before the Worlds and it showed in his racing as he pulled off an impressive series. After chatting to him before the event and seeing that he wasn't worrying about what rig to use as has often been the case I predicted he might win. Nathan had done hardly any Moth sailing in San Fran, and reminded the fleet of how good a standard large standard set of Mach 2 foils can be in the more marginal stuff. Nathan was long gone in some of the abandoned races. (We had more abandoned races than I have ever experienced!)

As far as tech shown at the Worlds:

Canting rigs: Rob Gough and Amac both ran canting rigs. Amac had most of his controls linked to one another and I'm still trying to go through the photos to figure out the system! Rob used some very neat tiny hydraulics, and a larger than normal spreader set. I heard he had a great high mode, and he seemed happy with the canting, but others who had tried it decided it wasn't worth the hassle and extra weight.

Double rudder foils: Something else that both Rob and Amac were using before the event was an extra small horizontal on the rudder vertical just under the static waterline. This helped in light wind take-offs, and marginal foiling tacks. Rob broke his off in training though, and neither of them used them in racing.

Fairings: As the boats get quicker and quicker, the aero of the platform is getting more attention. Bora had fairings on his rear wing bars, compression struts and boom end. Rob Gough and Simon Hiscocks had looked into the kingpost and foredeck area more.

New boats: I was great to meet Int Canoe World Champion Chris Maas at the event, and take his new Moth out for a spin after racing one day. It is a well built interesting boat, filled with new ideas. Although diving straight into a highly competitive Worlds was a big leap for Chris, he learnt loads, and I look forward to his next developments.

Macita mainfoil (Designed by Lister & Damic). Bora obviously used it to great effect, and that got a lot more people looking at it. Several people even started adding downward tips to their small Mach2 foils and fixing the flap at the end. I don't think anybody really got this to work for them though as each one was quite last minute. The foil looked to be a nice blend of aspect ratio, nice sections, and appropriate area.

Right time to get on with a few other things on the job list. I'm more of a blog fan than facebook so I'll endeavour to keep this more up to date. Plenty of interesting projects going on to talk about coming up...

We've got two America's Cup teams based here now that our new neighbours Luna Rossa Racing have arrived. In a boatyard just round the corner is Hydroptere having a refit, and then we've got the Kiteboat Project guys in the video below playing with kites and foils here.

I got a tour around their workshop recently and they have got a great collection of cool foilers in there.

On top of all that we've got a growing fleet of Moths and other small boat foilers.Adamhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-29859768.post-81128163903318769672013-05-03T04:42:00.000+01:002013-05-03T04:42:28.051+01:00Foiling 45 RacingThe foiling 45 is proving to be a pretty cool boat. Although originally only a bit of a test platform, this week we took on Oracle Racing in their foiling 45. It was great to watch both boats foil into the prestart and straight into a dial-up bows in the air. Should be fun racing the 72's!

So in 'Foilborne' news I had the privilege of sailing on Hydroptere at the end of last year, upping my personal best speed to 43 knots! It was an awesome afternoon cruising round San Francisco Bay with Alain Thebault and his team.

They were the fastest sailboat in the world, before Paul Larson smashed the outright record in such impressive style.

Back in 2010 I got to sail on Mirabaud during Weymouth speed week, so my collection of cool foilers sailed on is getting impressive.

2013 is looking good to improve on that list...

Oops, It's been a bit longer than planned between blog posts!<o:p></o:p>

Bumping into some old F18 friends in Plymouth reminded me that some people do actually read this stuff, and are interested in what I'm up to, so I'd better make an effort to update it.<o:p></o:p>

So what's been going on? Well I'd made my Moth wing, but unfortunately a hernia operation prevented me from going to the Worlds. Although disappointing to not be able to go to Belmont, I was fortunate enough to be able to dive into a new job at Artemis Racing. Carrying on where I'd left off after TeamOrigin stopped rather abruptly.<o:p></o:p>

I'll play safe by not going into detail about what we are up to within Artemis at the moment, but it is fair to say it is always pretty busy and has been eventful recently! In the World of wings I've managed to upscale rather quickly over the last two years with Moth, Tornado, AC45, and then an AC72 wing on a lengthened Orma 60 trimaran. So all very interesting.<o:p></o:p>

Now we are into a catamaran AC, my personal fleet has expanded to include an A Class to get back into some catamaran sailing. Great fun to learn a new class even if it feels quite slow compared to the Moth. It has had a few mods undertaken already, with plenty more little tweaks planned.<o:p></o:p>

Best of luck to all the Mothies who go to Garda, unfortunately I won't be able to make that one, but plan on Hawaii after the Cup.

But I thought I'd better post and mention that sadly I'm unable to attend the Worlds. I've got a slightly unscheduled hospital appointment, nothing serious, but it will unfortunately keep me off the water at a rather inconvenient time. My wing debut will have to wait for another time.

Best of luck to all out there, and it is great to see so many entries. I'm sad to be missing it.Adamhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-29859768.post-10996939539663388012010-09-01T12:59:00.005+01:002010-09-14T11:20:21.141+01:00Wing WalkingIt has been a busy time in the World of wings. The 34th America's Cup will now be raced with wing sailed cats - making the Moth the perfect feeder class!

It has been a bit of a hectic period recently, but I managing to get my boat back off Katherine for a few minutes on Sunday and went out crash testing the wing! Before I do a few mods I've got planned, I thought I'd to take the opportunity to really learn about the weak spots in a structure like this, and find out what bits need reinforcing, and which bits are fine. I'd start with some basic capsizes, and work my way up to some bigger moves! The skin is coming off, and some ribs being replaced anyway so I might as well learn about the survivability beforehand.

The initial test was to let Katherine have a go.... It survived that, so I had to work a bit harder. (See her blog http://www.foilingboatadventures.blogspot.com/ for the more colourful (pink) version of events soon)

I capsized, and stayed there for 5 minutes to see how much water would get inside. Hardly any was the result. More in the trailing element actually, and that should be sealed, so my control line entry points obviously worked okay on the front.

The C Class guys actually punch holes in the skin to drain the water out when they capsize as otherwise the water rushing down inside the wing can take out numerous ribs on its way down! Fortunately a well sealed wing laying flat in the water prevented the need for this, and stage one was passed.

Whilst capsized, I did the walk to the transom and flipped the boat over the transom. This is a nice way to load up the leach element! Five of those and still no cracking noises!

Okay time for a little party trick.. I thought early on that with a fully sealed leading edge structure, I'd have a nice buoyancy tank in the rig! Actually the volume of it would probably hold my weight quite well, and it was pretty bulletproof...

Not a typical load case, but a good example of the fact that these structures can be made quite tough!

 It survived that fine, so with the wind picking up a bit, I tried for some pitchpoles! Of course this is quite hard to do when you actually want to do it! But I managed one eventually, and although it made a good splat noise as the leading edge hit at pace, all was fine, and we came away from that one unscathed.

So back to the workshop for a few mods, although I think pondering over 44m versions will be taking up a fair bit of my time soon.

Oh well exciting times.

Updated: It is a little weird logging onto a webcam and seeing your car and boat in another country! Katherine called to say she'd made it to Silvaplana okay, so I did a quick check of the webcam, and I see the car and trailer!

I hope the weather clears up okay, and wish everybody a great event.

----------------

Unfortunately due to TEAMORIGIN commitments I shall be unable to attend the Europeans. I'm at an interesting time in a new team, with growing responsibilities, so it would be silly for me to miss up on opportunities as they arise.

A great shame as I was looking forward to going back out to Silvaplana, especially with such a good reception to the wing. So we'll have to wait for another time to unveil it in competition.

I've done a brief bit more testing. Lining up against Nathan the other day. I had height upwind, he had pace downwind. I came away with a long list of improvements in my head, pleased with the potential I know it has.

Katherine is still going out to the Euros, and will now be taking my Mach 2 which she has been getting a sneaky bit of practice in this week. (and I'm not sure if I'll be able to get it back off her!) With me not now able to help with the drive we are looking for help from the Moth fleet. She can drive out with Nathan, but needs a possible lift back, and car to tow a trailer? Or she'll be driving out and back on her own.

Any UK mothies able to help out?

A go with the wing open to best offer!

For pretty much as long as I've sailed I've had a fascination with the futuristic looking C Class cats, and their wing sails. I've always wanted to do a wing, but had imagined it would be as part of a C Class team one day. But what about building a nice scale version to get to know about them that bit better? Good plan – unless your own boat is already one of the most extreme sailing boats out there.... Oh well, got to be a bit bold sometimes. I've got a whole bunch of cool stuff in my little black book of design ideas, and was getting frustrated at seeing other people do things that I'd been pondering long ago. Rigs had received much thought, regarding what the next step might be. Rigging configs, wing masts and a variety of things have been sketched, but a wing was always at the end of the list as an end game solution. So why not give it a go, and miss out those intermediate steps? I knew there was interest in doing wings in USA, Switzerland, and Australia, so the race was on – who would be the first to do one? A covert race began, wondering each day if you would just go online to see somebody else had got there first. Bora and I joked at the Worlds that the code word for completion of a wing should be 'The Eagle has landed' A simple skype status update would be understood to mean only one thing. The wing had long been discussed with regard to the Moth, and I'd always thought you couldn't do it, we capsize the boat just to launch – a wing wouldn't like that. It would probably be heavier, and sailing a heavy rigged Moth would not be that nice in terms of handling. But what if it did work?
I'd been considering it for ages, and my weighs spreadsheet kept me honest for a while, until I simplified it enough, and had gone into some depth with thinking about the structure. It is an interesting problem, because the design and structure are so linked. Post launch, I'd say I worried about the weight too much. Launching and capsize recovery was easy enough, and the effect in tacks and gybes wasn't noticeable. The added weight up high is probably a performance gain upwind for those of us with less righting moment anyway! Design wise it is a very simple two element wing, with camber and rear element twist control (although I probably went too far in making it capsize safe, and the rear element is quite stiff!). Being quite weight conscious I played safe on the sizing, going a bit under area. Slightly less span because I was concerned over the cg height, and slightly smaller on chord because I wanted to fit it onto a standard Mach 2 Moth, and the mainsheet location imposed a few size restrictions on me. I could have done a transom mainsheet system like some use, but having used that system and capsized on the first tack, I thought it was a little punchy given how little sailing time I had available to me. It was never intended to be a fully finished product straight away. Most people thought it couldn't be done on a Moth, (or at least was a stupid idea!), so this was a little step into the unknown slightly. Rules wise many people have been in touch about how you measure it. We have an ISAF sail measurement document that describes the procedure for wing sails, and I've chatted to the C Class guys about how they measure theirs. The Moth class measurement manual is being updated to include these documents. Ultimately whether something like this remains within the class is up to the class, as we have a philosophy of retrospective legislation. I'm not fussed either way, somebody was going to do it one day, so I just fancied being the first. It is a cool project I wanted to do, and has been worth every penny already.
Performance. A question a lot of people have been asking is how was the performance? Well I was only out for 30 mins, and that was really more of a structural test than anything else! Would it destroy itself in a shower of carbon splinters? Could you launch it? Would it survive a capsize? These where the more pressing points in my mind, but there was another boat out, and there is something in all Moth sailors – a pressing need to buzz the tower Top Gun style! It was Simon Hiscocks out in his 49er (new rig). I lined up with him briefly downwind. I was faster, and at times was lower as well, but this was still inside the first 5mins from launch, and I was still playing with camber settings, and getting to grips with the fine line of wing trimming downwind at 19 knots. When I was in the groove, I was faster and lower at times, but occasionally I'd stall it, and have to head up to re-attach. VMG wise, about the same as my normal rig I'd say, but with plenty of potential to go better with a bit more time. Upwind was a nice case of higher and faster. I've lined up against most of the GBR 49er squad, and have generally had an edge, but this felt like a fair bit more... Hard to judge though for sure, so we'll see next week when I get to go up against some other Moths. Data logging with my PI Garda box starts on the next sail as well. Many people have asked about how practical it is – well it is obviously not as practical as a standard rig, but this one fits on my current road trailer, and I plan to make the top section above the hounds come off after the Euros, and then it will pack into a box about the size of our current Moth travel boxes, so that then isn't too bad.
Cost? – I had the initial mould costs, but if you forget that, the wing probably cost me only a little more than going out and getting a new mast, boom and sail together. Having done one – the time to build another would be a lot less. Interestingly a home builder could buy the component bits and get a rig for cheaper than currently. With less than a weeks sailing time before I head off to the Euros – it is unfortunately my standard championship preparation again! But faced with the choice of sailing around just outside the top bunch regretting not doing enough sailing, or go radical and put up the wing – it was an easy call, the wing is going. Chatting to Nathan the other day – he's done almost as much sailing in one month as I've done in my Mach 2 in total! Ironically a good reason for me to do it was the lack of time I had. I was set up for another season of minimal training time in my boat due to coaching commitments. My schedule only got more hectic with TeamOrigin work as well, and I saw a careful build and sailing timeline get smaller and smaller! But the project lent itself well to me designing it, and having it going as a project in the background whilst busy with other things. The most work is in the thinking time on a project like this, and I had thinking time – whether it be in the evenings at events, or on a plane travelling to and from a variety of events around the globe, but I didn't have sailing time available to me until much later in the year, so it fitted in well.
Successful projects are often about the people behind them, and I was fortunate enough to have had some great help with this.Kevin Driver: Originally I'd planned to get somebody to build me some leading edge moulds and do the big laminating jobs, then I'd do the rest in my workshop. I approached Kevin Driver over at the boatyard at Beer about my idea, and he was really keen to be involved. Kev was my National 12 helm many many years ago, and had a huge influence on my sailing. He made the moulds and leading edges, and got really into the project. With me snowed under with work, Kev undertook the full build project, and I concentrated on design, and small part production. I'd pop over every month or so with a programme of work, and a pile of parts of materials, explain the next stage and leave him to it. In the end Kev overtook me, building parts quicker than I could produce drawings. Working with Kev again was really cool. It was nice to be able to thrash ideas around, solve problems, and then he'd just get on with it. He kept me on track when I was pondering ways of doing it that were a little too complex or time consuming for version one. It was a shame he couldn't be there for the launch, but hopefully he'll get over to Weymouth in a weeks time when I sail it next, or I'll do some showboating off Beer beach soon. Iain Percy and Andrew Simpson – working for these guys has been great, a real privilege, and I've learnt a lot working with them. They were early fans of the project, and their 'just do it' attitude was an important encouragement early on. With my extra work coaching for them recently, I've looked on them in part as sponsors of the project, for without them it probably wouldn't have happened. Katherine – She's put up with me being away a lot recently, and then when I was home, I'd be doing a late night trip over to Beer, building another random part, or had my head stuck in my design notes. She's now a master of the 'clean room' skills such as splicing and wing skinning but went above and beyond the call of duty, swimming out with the wing to support it on the first launch! (She'll be glad it passed the launch/capsize test later on, so we won't be doing that again)

As a final note: I nearly started with this, but as there are a number of non-mothies reading this I'll finish with it instead. I've been suffering from Babbageitis for a long time. In Dubai, Scott admitted that he often thought about what he would write in his next blog post while sailing along. Well I've had a bad dose of it as I've been pondering my possible blog posts on the wing far too much!

Thank you for all the nice messages about this. I'll post more details soon, but I've got a busy week with TeamOrigin in Cowes, so I'd better focus on that.

 The ribs following me, all predicted I'd play safe, and tack round on the first sail. It felt fine so I rolled straight into a foiling gybe - that got a few cheers!

Many thanks to Ben Rhodes for these photos. (Ace 49er crew, and top photographer as well it now appears!)

Will do a full blog post tomorrow, but all went well for sea trials. Doing a nice quiet launch in Weymouth the week before the biggest regatta of the year here wasn't going to happen, so it was with quite a crowd gathered that I finally launched.

Upwind felt really good, downwind needs some tuning, but all good for a shake down sail.

Full update shortly - got to pack now for Cowes week with TeamOrigin and the 1851 Cup.

Special thanks to Katherine for wing skinning today, helping with the launch and taking photos!

A severe lack of blog posts recently as I've been so busy. Skandia Team GBR 2.4 work and Star work with Percy & Simpson have taken up a lot of time.

So not much time for much Mothing. Finished off a few jobs I wanted to do to the boat on unpacking it from its Dubai trip though. The hinged wand bonnet is now on, and a new style reinforced forestay attachment.

Next week should be interesting though - off out to Marseille to work for Team Origin with their TP52 programme...

Katherine and Carbon Footprint have gone on a little adventure today. They've entered the Sunrise to Sunset charity event that is going on all around the country. (For more info she blogged about it on her site: http://www.foilingboatadventures.blogspot.com/ - thanks to those who have sponsored her!)

I was shore crew today. Having only just got back from a long period away in Valencia, my boat hasn't been put back together yet, and some last minute workshop time was needed to get Katherine's mainfoil and flap attached again, so I was rigger and photographer. And now home for a cup of tea!

5:20am

 Unfortunately not much wind.... Registering about 4 knots for the first three hours sailing, although it looks like is might be building now.

(25 knots forecast for the afternoon - so a shift to a spot of windsurfing might happen!)

Didn't really start very well, and never got the first beats quite right. Funny chop around as well that I never got figured out on the run, and had a few pop outs. Oh and I hit a fish up one of the first beats! A day of missed opportunities I think.

Today was good though. After a morning of catching up with some work I went for an afternoon sail, and got in some very constructive tuning runs with Mike Lennon. I learnt a lot about my set-up, and how to sail the boat differently downwind, so looking forward to the next load of races.

Dalton made my day on Wednesday when looking over boats to see what tweaks people had done, he said - "I'm disappointed to see that nobody has figured out a tacking velocitek mount". Ha ha I might not have done much sailing, but not being able to see the gps when hiking upwind had bothered me so I created the tacking gps mount for this event! More details soon....Adamhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-29859768.post-5498278974852137982010-03-09T18:37:00.003+00:002010-03-09T19:02:57.204+00:00Day 2A day of two solid results and then frustration with picking up two plastic bags in the third race. 8th overall after four races. I'm happy enough with that.

The first race started in foiling conditions, but the beat was light - we were sailing some big angles upwind, and it was all about staying foiling. It was light at the windward mark, and I think everybody was lowriding in the area. I rounded the top mark around tenth but felt I was really close to getting up onto the foils again, so carried on upwind a fraction beyond the spectator boats into some pressure. I held my breath and up we went. It was a tricky run, but I kept it up, and made the gybe to be pleasantly surprised to find myself on the layline. Getting close to the target time, the race was finished at the bottom, and I'd got up to 5th. Amac won, having turned around on the run to go upwind a bit to get up onto the foils!

Race two had more breeze, and I was happy to have a good start, round the top in sixth, and stay there for the race. Amac showed great up the beat, but overstood the layline massively, and left himself quite a job to get back.

A secret to his speed could be his early prep - leaving the boat rigged overnight last night meant he was rigged and ready before anybody this morning!

Race 3 was held in more breeze again, and the usual suspects started to show through. I had an okay first beat to be looking at a 10th ish at the windward mark only to hit a plastic bag, and drop off the foils. I had to capsize to clear it, and was back in the late teens. A good run though saw me back into the mix a bit, but playing the left up the next beat was not a good move and the pack I'd got down the run had go passed me again. I then hit another plastic bag on the stbd layline, and had to capsize again. I clawed passed Alex Adams on the final beat and after a battle down the run beat him to take 16th.

My 6,5,6,16 leaves me in 8th overall after 4 races, but the discard comes in tomorrow, and there are a lot of races to go.

After racing I met up with Shirley and the CNN crew to give Shirley a go in a Moth for their next CNN Mainsail show. (Only fair given that I got to sail her VX40 in Hyeres last year.) Bora had done his bit trying to get her foiling yesterday in very light winds yesterday so I was the reserve today. We got lucky with the breeze though, and she was happily foiling around. Should be a good little piece for the class.

It has made me laugh at this event though that part of the Moth event experience now is the media interviews! I think I've seen everybody from the top 15 being interviewed for some TV show, website, local paper/magazine or online broadcast! Si Payne headed off after racing to do a local TV interview and came back with make-up on!

Oh how the class has changed.

I didn't get a great start, and was in the teens for the first beat. After a good run I was up near the top ten, and did well out of playing the right hand side up the beat to find myself with not many people in front. I was on the stbd layline with Mike Lennon the final time, but stuck in his dirt, in marginal conditions I lost a fair bit of distance. Si Payne closed up, and soaked inside me a bit on the run. I gybed out, and he dropped off the foils on his gybe. He got up again though and had good pressure down the middle. I came foiling back across but not at a great angle. It was all on at the finish though as I foiled through my final gybe and Simon was coming in lowriding. He pipped me at the line on a beep beep finish. I was happy with my 6th place though, I had no idea on what to expect having done so little sailing since the last Worlds.

I'm pleased with my speed - especially as I'm using a MSL10 in marginal conditions. (Using a 10 in Dubai, and a 13 in the USA might not be the right way round!) A last minute wand change made a world of difference, and suddenly I can gybe and tack again after a week of thinking it was just my lack of sailing time since the last Worlds.

Shirley Robertson is out here with CNN Mainsail, and as they are only here for three days they are trying to squeeze in getting as much coverage as possible for an upcoming feature on speed.
I agreed to help out by putting some cameras on the boat before racing and get some underwater shots of the boat taking off. It was a bit high risk with the camera attached to the gantry and therefore a high speed touchdown was not to be recommended! I eventually got up in the air despite the extra drag. De-misting cameras 30mins before the start and getting some more footage wasn't quite the normal first race of a Worlds prep, but hopefully it'll be good footage. Shirley tried sailing Bora's boat after the finish, but the wind had dropped too much for her to get up. They are now a little nervous today, as shots of Shirley doing 4/5 knots do not make for a good article on speed!

Third in my heat in the slalom, so just went for a sail, and played around with the camera. James Phare and I took it in turns to try and get some shots from in the water, and managed to get some okay ones. So here are the alternative shots for those who just went for a sail.

 Much interest in Amac's MSL15 onshore

 Tuning with Brad.

Dougie Imrie. Boat came out as oversized luggage on the plane! - great work!

It is time for another Moth Worlds, and once again I travelled out with Si Payne. On arrival in Dubai we joked about the large greeting party that would be there to meet us, and then we saw the sign...<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>

How nice to have somebody there to meet us!

A taxi ride later, and we got to the club to find a neat row of travel boxes. Fortunately our logistics coordinator Ricky Tagg had done a superb job, and all the British boxes were there.  (We are still waiting for a load of boxes for Team USA!)

I got stuck into unpacking straight away, once again forgetting to mentally log how I'd packed it in order to save time after the regatta! I got keen with the camera, and set it up to take a photo every minute while I built the boat. It proved how much chatting goes on during assembly! James Phare got keen and wanted a salute on film so stood there for a minute and a half to be sure to get one recorded! You can see me doing a bit of karate sailing, and pondering my gantry with hands on hips.

After lunch most people went for a sail once the seabreeze had come in, and with the boat pretty much ready to go we got out there. A nice benefit of our early arrival. <o:p></o:p>

It was nice to get out on the water again. I think I've only done a few days sailing in Weymouth, and the Tide Ride in Hayling since the last Worlds, so my preparation for this is less than ideal! My gybing needs some work, and I need to get up to speed a bit with my height adjuster, but all worked and I was going okay.<o:p></o:p>

So who was fast? – well it was day one for several people, so it is hard to tell too much, but I'd say Si Payne had the edge on people in the runs I saw.<o:p></o:p>

There are quite a few boats here sailing already, and so far nothing too new. The Swiss have some netting tramps, and a variety of neat little fittings. There are North V8 version ? sails, the standard collection of KA MSl10's and 13's andJP had a new Swiss sail I believe. The kit Team USA have brought over is eagerly awaited.. <o:p></o:p>

Today we have a bit of a storm. Torrential rain should ensure some blogging by most this morning, then we'll probably all head down to the boats to check on them later today.<o:p></o:p>

I thought BMW Oracle looked familiar....

So while the sailing World was thinking that wing sails on trimarans were new, I went home and dug out some photos of a craft, design and technology project I did when I was about 11 (quite a few years ago now!)

Wing sail, wave piercing hulls, T foil rudder, articulating floats.

Being a simple boat that was just meant to be set and released, it was never meant to fly a hull, so I adopted the pivoting float technique used on the Formula 40 'Adrenalin'.

Once a techno sailing geek always one.....

Good drinks and foods served. Service is okay, music also good
Staff was really friendly and the food was great ! Will go back again :))
Great service. Great portions of food - all of excellent value and quality.
Great service and good foods. The service crew are excellent.
The service was great and far exceeded our (my boyfriend's and my) expectations. We went on 14th feb 2015 for our valentine's dinner and the whole set up and ambiance was just amazing. The servers were attentive & efficient, making sure we didn't have to wait or ask for them to clear our plates after each course, or for a refill of drink. A lady also gladly offer to help us take pictures when I surprised my boyfriend with his gift! (Even after providing each couple a Polaroid picture to keep for memory) the food was superb as well and the servings were generous. the staff really made our visit enjoyable and memorable, and just for the great service itself, I'm definitely coming back! :)
Food was pretty good, we ordered the meat platter & their signature salt & pepper calamari as well as the Dallas fries. The meat platter was huge! Definitely can be shared between 3 people at least (if you order other items) even though it was meant for 2. My friend enjoyed the lamb very much. The calamari was a tad bland, but extremely tender. Fries were decent. I wasn't very pleased with the ambience though. We opted for indoor seating since it looked like it was going to rain and the only indoor seating available was the first floor which was the bar. I had hoped to dine at their restaurant located on the second floor, but it was not open. The bar was noisy and was not really the kind of setting I was hoping for, but I guess this is just a personal preference & it depends on the kind of gathering you intend to have? If I do return in the future, I will definitely call to check if the second floor is open. Service was decent.
Please make sure that my compliments reach the management coz all the staff deserves to be recognized. I was surprised of the excellent and warm service of all the staff . They were consistently helpful throughout our dining experience. They were all smiling and made you feel that they were willing to serve you. This is considering the fact that we are dining in using Groupon promotion. Normally, I receive discrimation whenever the staff would know that. I failed to get their names but I am referring to all the filipina ladies on duty between 8-9:30. Will really be back again:)) food are nice by the way:))
Once I found out this was a sports bar, I lowered my expectations for the food, but we had the Chicken Burger and BBQ Salmon Greek Salad which were delicious! The cocktails were also great. We were celebrating my husband's birthday and had the entire upstairs part of the restaurant to ourselves while the cricket match was going on downstairs. It was a perfect night. The wait staff was friendly and on point and even brought out a candle with our dessert. We'll definitely be returning.
Was initially disappointed that the second floor was closed due to problems with the aircon, but all was good after the manager moved us to the riverside tables where we saw the water display on the Singapore River and fireworks at Marina Bay. Manager explained and apologise as service was abit slow yesterday due to two of the chefs had take ill. Quality of food was not compromised. Overall, a wonderful riverside evening with the family and enjoyed awesome food.
We were there for lunch on a Saturday and upstairs seating was closed - a pity on that. It would have been lovely for our party of 7 celebrating a birthday to be granted the level 2 seats. Service was great given that they are short-handed during lunch. Food portion was big and we could not finish all that we ordered. We each ordered a main, a platter for 2 to share, and 2 starters. The Roast chicken I had was definitely frozen meat and I could taste the chill. Seasoning used for the lamb was too salty, so was the miso for the cod. Other food items are average.

Nakuru storm Prinsloo quarters unbeaten
Saturday August 17 2019
Hosts Nakuru stunned defending champions Homeboyz 14-12 in a Pool 'D' decider but both sides qualified for the main Cup quarter-finals of the Prinsloo Sevens at the Nakuru Athletics Club on Saturday.
Nakuru, the 2015 champions, finished day one flawless crushing Kenya Harlequin 27-5 before stopping Kenyatta University's Blak Blad 19-12. They would then pip Homeboyz to top the Pool.
Homeboyz started their Prinsloo Sevens title defence soundly, beating Blak Blad 48-0 before stopping Kenya Harlequin 34-5.
Four-time champions Mwamba, 2009 champions Strathmore and Gibson Weru's Oilers emerged from their respective pools unscathed to reach the main Cup quarters alongside Kabras Sugar.
Notably, it's the first time Kabras Sugar are reaching the Cup quarters this season.
Nakuru face Impala Saracens while Mwamba, the Kabeberi Sevens champions, meet Kabras Sugar in the main Cup quarters. Also, Strathmore take on Homeboyz while Menengai Oilers confront Kenya Commercial Bank (KCB), the winners of Kakamega and Dala Sevens.
Mwamba stopped KCB 19-12 moments after clipping Northern Suburbs 22-12. They claimed Pool 'A' with a resounding 36-0 victory against Mombasa as KCB finished second after beating Northern Suburbs and Mombasa 24-7 and 29-5 respectively.
Geoffrey Olouch opened the scores for Homeboyz against Harlequin with a try as Collins Shikuli sprinted past the Harlequin defence to score their second try. Alvin Otieno touched down again for Homeboyz before Jasper Ochieng's try for Harlequin.
Charles Omondi made a brilliant run on the touchline and evaded two harsh tackles to score a try near the post as Mohammed Amolo added the extras before Augustine Lugonzo hammered the last nail into Harlequin coffin with the final try.
Strathmore Leos launched the campaign on a superb note when they beat Nondies 15-0 as Impala Saracens also edged out the White Shirts 21-10. The Leos booked a quarter final slot after slaying Western Bulls 15-7.
Western Bulls gored Impala Saracens 12-10 but faltered to go down 29-12 at the hands of Nondies.
Menengai Oilers crashed Kabras Sugar 21- 19 before stinging Egerton Wasps 24- 0. Oilers wrapped up the day with an emphatic 37-10 win over Masinde Muliro University to book a quarter final berth.
Main Cup quarter-final pairing
Nakuru v Impala Saracens
Mwamba v Kabras Sugar
Strathmore v Homeboyz
Menengai Oilers v KCB

text: original source: beatportal Milwaukee the New LA? By burnedwithin - 01.19.2009 After thriving scenes having come out of nowhere in Los Angeles and San Francisco, Milwaukee Wisconsin may not be the first place that comes to mind when one thinks of EDM. This beer-swaggling town with more bars per capita than any other US city just does not seem to show love for the "techno music." Or does it? Lee Burridge [a] teased Wisconsonites at Summerfest (and mingled with them too!). Paco Osuna [a] demolished the Havana Nightclub barely a month ago. JPLS is on his way. M-town alums like James Amato bring it home and drive crowds wild. Is it possible that Brew-City is on the fast track to an electronic music renaissance? The historically strong artistic and hipster contingent, as well as the cultural diversity of Milwaukee have provided for the perfect environment for a revolution to start. Venues and promoters abound, not the least among them being projekt, a local group with a reputation for having the master hand on the best parties. Fast Forward to January 23rd, the perfect way to keep the new year coming: A Warehouse party featuring minimal don JPLS! Word has even come from as far as LA's legendary parymakers, DROID, who have already allegedly tipped their collective hat to the projekt team, praising their vision and future. If LA says it is good, Milwaukee is good! x CLOSE

In January, a Chase representative called and said she had missed several mortgage payments. The commission says it can be investigating the matter and will forward its final report to Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) Keriako Tobiko for doing things, next as former acting Youth Fund CEO Catherine Namuye appeared before Parliament's Public Investments Committee (PIC) Thursday morning to respond within the scam. Looking deeper, they love the notion of payday loans. His rally was geared towards drumming up support for President Barack Obama's jobs plan.

Chase Bank will probably be open on Halloween 2015 its normal hours. It's good to realize that Detroit's own Dan Gilbert would be a catalyst for this effort since the Quicken Loans founder is sincere about his commitment for the city, something he has conveyed in my opinion several times. Some banks, and also credit unions, waive a certain variety of overdrafts a year. The bank will have to find ways to have the most of the basic clientele.

The bank also said that, if a forex account had no activity for five-years, a letter should happen to be sent on the owners in the account to tell them that this account is going to be closed as well as any unclaimed funds transferred for the state. This dude then had the nerve to see me I should lecture my son on watching his balance. Any controversy within the proposed Chase signage is limited with a single building at present. We continue to talk to our customers so that individuals understand their needs and exactly how we can help. A week-long investigation conducted through the FBI and Sheffield Lake police resulted inside the two men charged, Campo said.

Dell has a pretty impressive deal on the 65SJ8000 TV from LG. This is a 65-inch LED TV that is on sale for $949, but you also get a $250 Dell Gift Card at that price, which really knocks the price down, especially if you are already a Dell customer. On top of that, if you are an American Express card holder, you can get another 10-percent off, knocking the price down further.
This TV from LG is a 65-inch 4K Smart TV with LG's webOS software on-board. That means you are going to get some great apps and games available on this TV out of the box, which is a good thing. All of the big names are there – including YouTube, Hulu, Netflix, Google Play Movies & TV, and much more. There is also four HDMI ports available here for connecting other set-top boxes like a NVIDIA SHIELD TV, PlayStation 4 or something else. As well as an ethernet, composite, component and three USB ports. For sound, there are two speakers included, which will give you decent sound, but it's no Dolby Atmos audio here, unfortunately. LG does market it as ULTRA Surround Sound, but you can do better with a soundbar and wireless sunwoofer for a few hundred bucks (perhaps with that $250 gift card from Dell).
Dell does offer up free shipping on just about everything on its site. And with larger products like this, that's definitely a good thing. If you are a Dell Advantage Rewards member, you can earn even more points on this purchase. Now if you are not looking forward to spending this much cash today, Dell does offer 0% financing for 12 months. So you can apply for Dell's financing and get this for just $0 today – though you'll want to make sure you make your payments of course. You can pick it up from Dell's website using the link down below.

Phoenix, AZ – Arizona Society of Human Resource Management (AZSHRM) has announced that it is leading the charge in bringing the thrill of eSports to the HR industry, right here in Arizona. AZSHRM has partnered with EDGE Challenges to develop AZ HR Games. This competition is HR driven, but uses real-time strategy computer games. The platform allows participants to quickly see and feel the impact of their leadership skills and competencies on the mission and their team. Since AZSHRM is a trusted leader in providing HR expertise to achieve a sustainable competitive advantage and help companies 'win' at business, this seemed to be a natural fit.
Through the two-day competition, teams of college students will compete against each other, where each side must work to have better teamwork and chemistry within the confines of the game in order to win. Much like business, players fill different roles and positions, and then these students will need to figure that out on-the-fly in order to take their team to victory. In addition to the gaming component, students will also have a case study that they'll work through and present to a panel of prestigious community business and human resource leaders. The winning team and most valuable player will receive scholarship prizes.
"eSports is exceptionally popular, having hundreds of millions of fans each year. AZSHRM wants to leverage that power and be the first to bring that level of excitement and fun to our very own HR games", says Matt Wilson, President of AZSHRM. AZSHRM and EDGE Challenges collaborated to bring AZ HR Games to life. "EDGE Challenges hosts a series of leadership simulations for executives, so designing a program to showcase the strength and leadership skills of future human resource professionals was a perfect next step in our organization's evolution," says Kevin Black, Principle and Founder of EDGE Challenges, Phoenix, AZ.
The competitions are modelled off the NFL Combine, where NFL team scouts watch and identify the best players during practice seasons. The AZ HR Games allows local recruiting companies, HR consulting firms and employers the opportunity to gain an inside look at the best and brightest HR talent from our local colleges and cheer on the best team. "Creating the environment where college students can apply their extensive education to real-world human resources situations, where everything isn't so cut and dry, will be exciting to watch. How they choose to handle each situation will demonstrate their leadership skills as well as their ability to collaborate effectively," says Laurie Brednich, CEO of HR Company Store who has been recently appointed as the new Director of College Relations for AZSHRM.
AZ HR Games takes place at Galvanize on October 24 and 25, and tickets go on sale April 1 and can be purchased directly through www.azhrgames.com.
