I'm looking for handwriting recognition solution. I've found one here, which is a flash application. What's the principle of how it works? Does it make any queries to db to find the character?
Have done this once for japanese (includes chinese character set). I had divided the operation in 4 steps, repeated at each stroke:
You could use various pieces of information, such as number of strokes, starting and ending angle of strokes, number of intersections in each stroke, etc. to help narrow things down (your example app only seems to narrow the results down), given a database, of course. Handwriting recognition is not a very easy thing to do however.
There are a few different solutions to handwriting/gesture recognition. The one that I have learnt about is with artifcial neural networks, in particular multilayer perceptron network. In a nutshell you feed in some test samples thats are correct, you then train this network and then use it to test on the new input. Similar things in flash that also use this network are those 20 question games.
There are a few other ways to do it, some simpler and some probably more complicated but my knowledge on them is poor.

Outrunner a six legged machine developed at Florida-based Robotics Unlimited which can touch a speed of 45 miles per hour on treadmill and 25 miles per hour outdoor, which beat the past record by robot of 16 miles outdoor and 28.3 miles an hour on a treadmill. Robotics Unlimited has planned to bring it on sale after achieving a fund of $150,000 which has already raised 1/4th of its total fund. They are planning to host a worldwide race of robots which is open for all, one's the fund is raised. The live update of the fundraiser can be found here Kickstarter
Outrunner when starts running feels like some alien running on the streets. Outrunner looks nothing like animal though but it uses the same logic and pattern of mass to length ratio. The center of mass of robot is lower than the axis of rotation, making it stable and run without falling or of-balance. Outrunner is able to run on any surface from grass , gravel , going down the hills and also on the Olympic tracks. It can also perform running on its 4 legs as well. Outrunner has the potential to steer itself by shifting its center of mass to one side to other. Outrunner turns its legs when it touches the ground, it keeps moving forward that's the basic concept of this robot. It is now the fastest Robot to run at this speed . It uses same process of legged animals to save energy which allows it to fluctuate and conserve kinetic energy while it's on the move. Can Outrunner be used for the training of sports runner ? Will find it out soon….

Overall: 5.0 / 5 based on 6 reviews
6 of 6 reviewers would recommend this product to a friend.
very nice -
By: hoosierboy from Indiana
Top 10 Contributor
Very nice suede fabric with a beautiful color too.It has a relaxed fit for layers and my medium is just a little long in the sleeve but fits over a sweater.It's not good over a long sleeve T-shirt because the length hangs below my wrist. It fits well in the shoulders and drapes nicely too. I haven't been in rain yet so I'm hoping for the best.Overall it's a very stylish jacket and a good buy on sale.
No Problem -
By: shaku
There is no problem about this coat. Good in the rain and wind,can be worn as a coat or a jacket and remarkably light weight,
Suede Coat -
By: Johnsey from Omaha, NE
The coat was very soft, light weight and comfortable to wear. The color was beautiful, light brown doesn't describe it accurately. I had to return it because it was too big, just waiting for a smaller size to be restocked.
By: massey57
Great jacket -
By: BMCFWB
Great looking, fits perfectly. Can be worn as a light jacket or as an over sized heavy shirt.
Suede Car Coat -
By: GJA1 from Toronto, Ontario, Canada
This suede jacket is everything that Orvis promised - so full marks there. Second, it was exactly what I was looking for. I have several leather jackets and I was looking for an easy-fitting suede jacket that I could wear with - or without - a blazer. This is the perfect jacket. I also tested it in the rain and it did not discolour. I am going to buy another one AS SOON AS ORVIS ADDS A TOBACCO or DARKER BROWN COLOUR TO ITS CATALOG!

Looking for holiday inspiration? Our Advent and Christmas devotionals are here.
The apostle, having in the foregoing chapter set forth the sin and punishment of the ancient Jews, proceeds in this, I. To declare that our privileges by Christ under the gospel exceed the privileges of the Jewish church under Moses, as a reason why we should make a right improvement of them, Heb. 4:1-4. II. He assigns the cause why the ancient Hebrews did not profit by their religious privileges, Heb. 4:2. Then, III. Confirms the privileges of those who believe, and the misery of those who continue in unbelief, Heb. 4:3-10. IV. Concludes with proper and powerful arguments and motives to faith and obedience.

I gotta say I enjoyed that movie more than I thought I would. It was much better than Burton's Alice In Wonderland. I didn't know who was who going in, so I was actually surprised that Kunis turned out to be the green witch, I thought it was going to be Weisz.
My one great complaint; they should have ended it with a flashforward to Weisz plotting revenge against the wizard and them BOOM a house falls on her

Difficult phylogenetic questions: more data, maybe; better methods, certainly

BMC Biology 2011, 9:91 doi:10.1186/1741-7007-9-91Published: 29 December 2011
Contradicting the prejudice that endosymbiosis is a rare phenomenon, Husník and co-workers show in BMC Biology that bacterial endosymbiosis has occured several times independently during insect evolution. Rigorous phylogenetic analyses, in particular using complex models of sequence evolution and an original site removal procedure, allow this conclusion to be established after eschewing inference artefacts that usually plague the positioning of highly divergent endosymbiont genomic sequences.

Apple thwarting independent music podcasters?
updated 08:25 am EDT, Tue July 26, 2005
Apple filtering podcasts?
A group of independent music podcasters says that Apple is . The group announced that Apple is not publishing some of the feeds of some of its members' podcasts at the iTunes Music Store. "Even though most podcasts only take 48 hours to appear, many music podcasters are finding themselves left out in the cold. Despite the widespread proliferation of podcasts through Apple"s new iTunes version 4.9, it appears music podcasters that legally distribute independent music are being left behind and effectively locked out of the iTunes podcast directory."
The Association of Music Podcasting (AMP) claims it represents the largest podcasting content group in the world, with forty three members and says that 34 AMP podcast feeds remained unlisted in the iTunes directory, despite being listed at other popular podcast directories and being submitted to Apple for inclusion in iTunes.
"It appears Apple has placed procedural obstacles for many older, established podcasts to quickly enter its iTunes directory. Despite that brand new podcast submissions appear to be taking a reasonable amount of processing time (approximately 48 hours), many legacy podcasters have waited weeks without a presence on iTunes," according to a press release issued by AMP.
"Moreover, podcasts taken from the original iPodder.org listing are barred from resubmission, with no available option to resolve the issue of podcasts 'on hold.'"
Derrick Oien, President of AMP says that his podcast, which began in the fall of 2004, is among many not yet listed in the iTunes directory. "It appears that Apple is more concerned with molding the community to their immediate commercial needs than with embracing this open community and adhering to an effective long term strategy. We have witnessed the early evolution of podcasting at a break-neck pace; partly because podcasting"s open format rapidly adapts to fit the needs of the community at large. Successful corporations will embrace rather than attempt to control this phenomenon."
Formed in January of 2005, AMP says its mission is to unite podcasters who play legally available independent music. "AMP DJs are music lovers who have access to great, mostly independent music that you probably haven't heard of (yet). AMP provides a fresh alternative, and it's all legal and safe to download. AMP members operate their own unique podcast shows." The grouop says that music podcasters who legally distribute independent music are being left behind and effectively locked out of the iTunes podcast directory.

Hamilton was the leading scorer in the event while playing for Lamar Odom's I-Can All Stars AAU team.

Adams Express' New Distribution Policy Well Intentioned but Poorly Executed 3 commentsSep 10, 2011 12:45 PM | about stocks: ADX
As Winston Churchill remarked, "The Americans will always do the right thing... after they've exhausted all the alternatives.
Apparently, The Adams Express Company's (NYSE:ADX) Board hasn't exhausted all its possibilities.
Its current commitment to target a distribution of 6% of the trailing month-end stock price as of October 31 through the use of a special year-end distribution is a silly piece of logistics.
Apparently, ADX will continue to make quarterly distributions at its current rate of $0.05 per share and for its annual year-end distribution it will distribute the balance to fulfill its 6% commitment.
So, if I'm interpreting this correctly—and I hope I'm not, this is no different than its current distribution schedule with the exception of targeting a 6% total distribution to the average trailing 12 month end stock price--which is only slightly higher than the 5.2% total distribution the past two years from net investment income and capital gains.
Now, all the Board has accomplished is "gaming" the stock price for the year-end special distribution.
Why wouldn't the Board consider a managed/level distribution program that would incorporate the CEFs long-term capital gains history into the quarterly distributions? They certainly have enough history to come-up with this calculation. This would have a tendency to maintain a higher stock price year long as quarterly distributions would be level.
If the Board's goal is to narrow the discount, they probably accomplished this objective around the special year-end distribution period. Then after the ex-dividend date the stock will go back to its one of the CEFs market segments highest discounts.
The Board needs to establish a level quarterly distribution policy if it wants to accomplish its goal of permanently narrowing the discount.Joe Eqcome
This new policy is well-intended but poorly executed.

What about couponing?
Posted By Dave Ramsey On 08/16/2012 @ 7:36 pm In Commentary,Opinion | No Comments
Dear Dave,
Is it worth the time and effort to use coupons, or are they just a waste of time and a ploy to get you to buy things?
Dear Tammy,
Coupons are definitely a ploy to entice you to buy something you may not have purchased otherwise. But that doesn't mean they're bad things. The practical and sensible application of coupons can definitely help you save money.
The main things to watch out for when using coupons are overbuying and spending your money on things you don't really need. Seriously, you don't need to hit Sam's or Costco and walk out with nine gallons of mustard. I've even heard of people buying things they know they don't like just because it was on sale or they had a coupon. I mean, how dumb is that?
I guess there is a time factor involved in collecting coupons, especially if you still like to clip them from the newspapers or flyers that come in the mail. Plenty of folks still do that every week. I think online coupons are a lot easier to search for and save though. There's a company I love called eMeals that will work with you to plan recipes and also give you information on coupons and sales in your area to make the meals.
I'm definitely not anti-coupon, but at the same time couponing alone won't change your family tree. It's like any other tool. If used in a smart way, it can help you save money. And that's not a bad thing!
The kids' birthday money
Dear Dave,
What's the best way to save or use money given to a baby as a birthday present?
Dear Ron,
I think it depends on your financial situation along with your plans and goals. If you're at a place where you can't afford necessities, then there's absolutely nothing wrong with using birthday money for food, diapers or clothes. That's not a fun answer, but sometimes you have to do whatever it takes to properly care for your family.
If money isn't a big issue, though, you're left with figuring out a plan. In our case, we invested lots of it toward their college funds. Then we taught them to save for other things themselves. For instance, we didn't buy any of our kids their first cars. But we did agree to match whatever they saved when it came to this purchase.
There's also nothing wrong with just setting up a simple savings account and watching it grow. As they get older, you can involve them in the process and begin to teach them about the three uses for money: spending, saving and giving. And if you start something like this when they're really little, chances are they'll already have a nice pile of money already stashed away when they become old enough for those teachable moments.
The point is to have a plan. Once you have a definite idea in mind, it's a lot easier to achieve the goal!

thanks for comment
Nominating Constructive Critique
Hi there, you have three very interesting images here and they are all different subjects and convey different messages. I humbly recommend you upload these separately as it makes offering critique a much harder job. Also, your question "good or bad" is a bit too generic - so the replies will be generic. I hope my comments help you determine whether they're good, or bad, for YOU. Something is good/bad relative to what you wanted to achieve with it, keep that in mind.
So, one by one now...
IMAGE 1: I like this a lot. It's well-taken and I like the textures that are visible; on the model's skin, the cloth covering her face and her hair...I also like the clarity and the contrast in this image. Those make it "good" in my eyes. What I think can improve is the composition, and the negative space around the model. On the left it seems that there are some "grey" areas that you could easily clone out to retain only the model in the image. I would also add some space up top to put her head closer to a third and give her space to "look into", (despite her eyes being covered). I'll upload a mod later to explain this visually.
IMAGE 2: I like this as well, it's an interesting subject once again and I feel like the b/w adds to the image by "throwing the viewer" back in time, in a way, to the days were jazz was all the rage! I also like how the character's hat, on the other hand, contrasts with the jazz mood. This all adds up to the interest in my view. What I find distracting is the tilted verticals at the back of the image. I would have preferred these to be straightened out. Depends on how much canvas you had available. The straightening out of these verticals would likely also result in giving a bit more space to the left of the saxophone, which I feel shouldn't be so tight and close to the edge of the frame. I feel like the circle formed by the bottom part of the saxophone could have easily created a point of interest from which the viewers' eyes go upwards to meet with the musician's face. As it is, though, I think it doesn't work well. One final comment on this, the "face?" in the background is also hauntingly attractive, and detracts a bit from the main subject. I think trying to clone it out won't be an easy job but I'll try it in the mod later.
IMAGE 3: Haunting. Scary. Right out of a horror movie... That's what I thought upon seeing this. I think it works well in a confusing and disorienting way. I like this and the processing helps as the absence of colours makes the viewers focus on the faces and the weirdness of the scene. There are some elements that I'd try to crop or clone out though, for instance the MERCHANTS wording and possibly the men in the background (in the suit, high-visibility jacket and the one carrying the placard). These seem to jar from the medieval feel of this image. I think doing this in post would be very time consuming, so maybe waiting for them to walk out of the image would have been an easier solution. You possibly have an image where these distractions are not there, if you took more than one image. Consider a similar processing on an image with a bit less "distractions" in the background and I think you'd have a better final image.
Hope this helps you determine just how good or bad these images are. Keep up the good work,

Two mods uploaded - the second mod also has some burning in in shadows and midtones to add a bit more punch and contrast to the image.

love the first one, really good tones.
Nominating Constructive Critique
There's not a lot that I can add to Alistair's very detailed comments, espeically on the first two images. I particularly like the first one, because it's such a strong (and rather disturbing) picture.
The third shot is another of your pcitures from (at a guess) the Edinburgh Fringe: and looks liek a publicity stunt for "The Crucible"... Really effective, as the clothing and eye contact from the girl at the bottom of the frame offer a disturbing suggestion that witch trials had a strong sexual element... As Alistair says, straight out of a (Hammer) horror movie!
Nominating Constructive Critique
As dudler says, Alistair's critique is so detailed that it's hard to add anything else and I'd be hard pushed to know what to say anyway! So, for what it's worth ... V1 - I thought I recognised this from somewhere and I've just gone through your portfolio to find it (yeah, I'm that sad ) ... I loved it the first time round, and still love it this time round (I thought I'd commented on it years ago, but obviously not ... but it stuck in my mind). V2 - although I do like this, I don't like it as much as the other two for some reason. V3 is veerrryyy interesting, to say the least. The subject matter, the treatment you've given it and the ethos behind the scene (witches) really tweaks the imagination.
A good set

Picture: Images of Jude Law and Sienna Miller's new home in Highgate, North London. London, England - 24.01.11
Jude Law, who has separated from girlfriend Sienna Miller, asked the actress to stop bringing up their first failed relationship during interviews.
JUDE LAW, the British actor who has split from SIENNA MILLER for the second time, asked her to stop mentioning their first break-up in public, reports MTV News.In an interview in Vogue in 2009, Miller began to discuss the first time she split for Law. The actor was alleged to have had an affair with his children's nanny and Miller said, "It's dangerous to bring this up. I talked about him in an interview not long ago, saying that I still love him, and he was like, 'Please stop talking about it". She later went on to admit that the publicity surrounding the couple's relationship became an issue, saying, "It couldn't have been more public! I had people on the street being like, 'Ang in there, loov!' and all you want to do is crawl into a cave and weep for a week".
JUDE LAW who has three children with the British fashion designer Sadie Frost, was previously in a relationship with SAMANTHA BURKE and the model gave birth to their daughter in September 2009.

Did nobody catch Gov. Sonny Perdue's latest pride and joy, the cycling race from Savannah, Georgia to Atlanta, Georgia? I thought I even saw Greg Lemond give Sonny a yellow jersey, on the condition that he start riding a bike.
This race is to finish in Centennial Park on (I think) April 27 (the same weekend as Confederate Memorial Day, a holiday for many of us) and is hoped to become a major race in times to come.
I hope it generates popularity of cycling in and around Atlanta.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - A soldier based at Fort Campbell, Ky., drowned over the weekend while trying to swim across the Cumberland River, Nashville police said.
Investigators didn't immediately release the victim's name.
The soldier and a friend might have been drinking on Saturday when the victim tried to swim the river near downtown, investigators said.
The river is more than 500 feet wide in the area, said a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers spokesman.
The soldier's body was found Sunday afternoon not far downstream
from where he went in.

Cuba abuzz over 'secret Twitter'Comment on this story
Havana - Revelations of a secret US program to set up a phone-based social network in Cuba are being trumpeted in the island's official media.
It is being presented as proof of allegations that Washington is waging a "cyber-war" to stir up unrest.
The findings of an Associated Press investigation have featured prominently on state TV newscasts and occupied a full page in the Communist Party newspaper Granma on Friday.
Documents obtained by the AP said the network dubbed ZunZuneo attracted some 40 000 cellphone users.
The AP revealed that the network sought to build an audience and then nudge it toward dissent.

I'd say "I think I gave my TA chlamydia" is an accurate way to sum up my life.
Got to use the phrase "sweet pukas dude." My day is made.
Waffles and pussy, what else is there?
I tried eating pop-rocks while giving him a bj, I honestly think I was more disappointed with the results than he was.
He wanted to watch the vow, cuddle, and not have sex. An upgrade is in order.
Seriously just told the plant the cheese Pringles are mine.
The whole bar erupted and in happiness and confusion as I went on about pancakes.
The sex is great, I just think it'd be better if we listened to Deftones during it.
I've discovered my ability to crush a man's ego is greater than my hate for beer.
Nothing says "First Single Holidays" quite like getting baked with the guy that took your virginity four years ago.
I seriously want to say to him "Do you know how many blow jobs you could have gotten this summer?"
The waitress at the airport bar just asked me if I wanted a "to go" beer, hahahahaha OF COURSE I WANT A TO GO BEER.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder in dogs and cats appears to be a genetic trait more common among certain breeds, and researchers find that only about one in ten dogs with OCD comes from an animal shelter.

text: The Negative is quite vague in places, paradoxical in others and does not carry over well into active practice. I've spoken with many photographers that have a disdain for Adams and his teachings, preferring to learn to meter their way (this includes me: I mastered spot, duplex spot, incident and reflective long before I came across the first Adams book!) through trial and error; this has merit of course on an individual basis. Adams was a method photographer and his methods are solid foundation in reasoning and theory, but many do have difficulty grasping what is being said. Here is a suggestion. Put the book down. Just go out with a spot meter and meter a scene v.i.z., hi, midtone, low then average, then shoot. Work your way along there and take notes as you go.

After logging all the miles prescribed on your training plan, your legs will probably be ready to run the marathon. But your mind is a whole different muscle. Most people overlook the mental preparation that can make life during training (and those 26.2 miles) much easier. Last year, a study at Staffordshire University in the U.K. looked at 706 ultramarathoners and found that mental toughness accounts for 14 percent of racing success—a fairly large chunk when your race takes multiple hours to complete. Bulk up your mental reserve now so you can tap into it on race day and make it to the finish line with this advice from sports psychologists who've worked with Olympic runners and marathon newbies.

Dexter - Season 7 (with Spoilers)
View Single Post

Rear Admiral
Location: the real world
Re: Dexter - Season 7 (with Spoilers)
I gave up on Dexter years ago. But quite aside from the previous Deborah character was a daddy's girl who thought Daddy was an upright cop, any version of Deborah extant should be able to see more objectively than Dexter. Meaning, she would realize Daddy was actually crazier than a bedbug, guilty of a horrendously unique form of child abuse. Having
realize this is far less interesting or significant than having Dexter learn it for himself. But the newest Deborah should at least develop a terrible case of survivor's guilt over having survived Psycho Daddy.
It occurs to me that Psycho Daddy is awkwardly long. I suggest he be dubbed Zeus, since he gave birth to Deborah sans female. There was the occasional woman in the odd flashback, but she was obviously just a prop.
The people of this country need regime change here, not abroad.

The multinational pharmaceutical company GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) has announced promising results for its phase 1 trial of the exon-skipping drug drisapersen in boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) who are no longer walking.
The phase 1 trial was designed to test safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (what the body does to the drug) of drisapersen, not to test drug efficacy.
Update (Feb. 1, 2013): Dutch biopharmaceutical company Prosensa announced Jan. 29 that it has received orphan drug status in the United States and the European Union for compounds in development for the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
Experimental anti-cancer drugs that block IAP (inhibitor of apoptosis) genes and kill cancer cells have unexpectedly been found to induce the growth and repair of muscle tissue, say scientists supported in part by MDA.
A left ventricular assist device (LVAD), which helps the heart pump blood throughout the body, was implanted in the chest of a young man with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center in September. The patient is 29-year-old Jason Williams, of Peebles, Ohio.
A multicenter study of the use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) to measure the progression of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is open at sites in Florida, Oregon and Pennsylvania for boys with DMD who meet study criteria.
Editor's note (Oct. 26, 2012): This story has been modified to note that it's possible for the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to give conditional approval to a promising rare-disease drug prior to a larger confirmatory trial being performed.
Update (Nov. 9, 2012): This story has been updated to reflect that recruitment for this study ends Dec. 31, 2012.
An MDA-supported, short-term trial of the vasodilating drug tadalafil (Cialis) in teens and men with Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) has undergone some minor restructuring and is now open to 12 additional participants.

Looking sultry in black lingerie and menswear, "Drinking Buddies" star Anna Kendrick appears in the September issue of GQ, where she opens up about her own adult beverage of choice -- "every single Belgian-style beer" -- and the increasing frequency with which she gets asked for an autograph these days. It seems Kendrick, 28, has a particular knack for being spotted while shopping for underwear. "There's something deeply embarrassing about being approached when you're holding knickers," said the "Twilight" actress. "And it's happened twice!"

Delaware City facts and figures
Population: 1,453
Government: Incorporated. Five-member City Council, a mayor and a city manager. The municipal building is at 407 Clinton St.
Location: Off Del. 9, about five miles south of the city of New Castle
Median house cost: $140,000
Property tax: 99 cents per $100 of assessed value
Operating budget: $635,000 proposed for fiscal year 2003
Industry: Formerly peaches and commercial fishing. Recently aiming to become a tourist destination.
Most popular events: Delaware City Day in July and Canalfest in September
Name: Area formerly known as Newbold's Landing. Daniel and William Newbold laid out the streets and dubbed the town Delaware City in 1826. The name reflected the optimism that the town would become a big metropolis once the nearby Chesapeake & Delaware Canal was completed. It opened in 1829. But the boom was short-lived, because the Army Corps of Engineers straightened out the canal's eastern end, which had curved toward Delaware City, opening a new tidal canal in 1927 and bypassing the town.
You haven't experienced Delaware City until:
• You've gone on a Ghost Tour in October at Fort Delaware.
• You've had the under-the-tent dinner at Canalfest.
• You've watched the Delaware River breakers spray over the bulkhead into Battery Park during a big storm.
• You've had dinner on the deck of the Olde Canal Inn.
• You've watched the fireworks finale at Delaware City Day.
Many people zip through Delaware City but don't see much of it.
Take scenic Del. 9, approach the lone red light, glance up and down at the handful of nearby homes and businesses, and many drivers think they have passed through the heart of town.
By not turning at the light, they miss the tree-lined main street that could serve as a model for small-town America, said Denise August, promotion manager for Main Street Delaware City Inc. The group seeks to preserve and improve the town's historic character.
"It's beautiful house after beautiful house. It's so pretty coming down here, all these flowering trees – and then you come to the water."
The Delaware River, at the foot of Clinton Street, flows like a rippling timeline between what the town used to be and what some people would like to see it become.
It was the town's lifeblood in the 1800s and early 1900s, with commercial fishermen netting shad and sturgeon from the busy waterway. But that way of life died long ago, and August and others have been trying to remake the town, capitalizing on the river and nearby Fort Delaware State Park on Pea Patch Island to attract tourists.
They would like to see more people turn at the light.
The town embarked on a plan four years ago to renovate the downtown business district on Clinton Street at the river. Recent work to enlarge nearby Battery Park and kindred projects have begun to bring in new tourist-type businesses such as the blacksmith shop now under construction at Clinton and Williams streets.
Delaware City has stood at the threshold of big things before.
There was a steady stream of visitors when the Chesapeake & Delaware Canal ran alongside the town. Daniel and William Newbold anticipated heavy traffic in 1826, when they laid out the town's straight, wide streets and optimistically named the town Delaware City several years before the canal opened.
But when the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers created a new sea-level canal in 1927 – with its entrance two miles south of town – it helped dash any hope of Delaware City becoming another Philadelphia.
City Manager Paul Morrill, who has led efforts to renovate the town's business district, said it was a blessing, too, because the riverside community has retained its small-town charm.
"We've ended up with a nice small town with a lot of good architecture and great history," said Morrill, 53, who moved to Delaware City 13 years ago. "That's because the buildings are still here, so that throwback to the past is visible."
Most of the town from Del. 9 to the Delaware River is on the National Register of Historic Places, with many 19th-century Federal- and Victorian-period homes and businesses.
Visitors are attracted by the town's historic charm. But residents say they like it because it is a safe and quiet place to live.
"It's peaceful," said Alice Roberts, 72. "I don't have to go to bed and worry about someone coming through my window."
Rosetta Bulin, 58, recently moved back to the town where she spent her youth before leaving in the early 1960s.
"It was the greatest place to grow up," she said. "It was like Tom Sawyer. It was just natural fun. Everybody knew everybody. I was the happiest kid. There isn't a house in Delaware City I haven't been in. I was everybody's child."
The town's old-timers also have noticed that a lot of new people have moved into town in recent years.
Henry Nickle, 44, president of Nickle Real Estate on Washington Street, said about 30 of the town's 700 houses go on the market each year, and they have sold quickly for the past several years, coinciding with the town's revitalization efforts.
"It's sort of like a Norman Rockwell-type setting," said Nickle, whose family goes back six generations to the 1820s in Delaware City. What's more, it is difficult for developers to re-create this feel in new construction.
An example of the town's Americana-type atmosphere is the Delaware City Post Office on Clinton Street. The town is too small for home delivery, so residents pick up their mail there, and chat with their neighbors while they're at it.
"Customers come in and tell us who's sick, who's well and who had new babies – good news as well as bad," said Postmaster Margi Turner, 47, of Bear. "It's a meeting place. I think it's a focal point in town."
The post office also is a focal point in ongoing plans to develop a closer relationship with Fort Delaware State Park, and an important step in revitalizing the business district.
The Delaware River & Bay Authority bought the post office building and two adjoining properties last year to build a parking lot and develop a gateway for its ferry operation to Fort Delaware and to Fort Mott in New Jersey. Postal officials are looking for a suitable site to relocate in town.
By working aggressively to obtain state and federal grants, Morrill also has lined up a number of other projects designed to make fort visitors linger a little while longer downtown.
A $360,000 project to construct brick sidewalks and bury utility wires in the business district should go out to bid this fall, he said. And a $600,000 phase of a proposed canal promenade to eventually run along the Branch Canal (the old C&D Canal) from the river to Del. 9 also should reach the bid stage in the fall.
Morrill said public investment in projects such as these has spurred private investment, with many new businesses opening on Clinton Street. They include the Grand Illusions Costume Co., the Ice Cream Parlor, the Delaware City Soap Co. and gift shops such as the Imaginary Place and Roadrunner Junction.
But, he said, "We don't have enough shops yet that are attractive to visitors. That's a priority."
Jim Pileggi, 53, president of the Delaware City Area Business Association and owner of Adams Woodworking on Clinton Street, also finds fault with the business district's makeup.
He said some shops are "extra-income types of businesses" with only part-time hours. Many of the businesses tend to be seasonal, too, because Fort Delaware operates April through October and the town depends on it for visitors.
Delaware City also needs to accommodate more overnight visitors, August said. The Olde Canal Inn is the only business in town with rooms for overnight guests. More bed-and-breakfast-type places will have to open to attract visitors from outside the region.
Some have come anyway. Delaware City Marina owner Jo Ann Barnard said boat owners from as far away as Australia, South Africa and France have docked there because it is sheltered and off the C&D Canal.
She said the marina and inn teamed recently to create a program for boaters that features a place to dock their boat, a two-night stay at the inn and continental breakfast for a $109 per couple package price.
Most visitors still come to town to visit Fort Delaware, a prison for Confederate soldiers during the Civil War that also has undergone some recent renovations.
Lee Jennings, a state parks historian and former fort historian, said the fates of the town and fort are linked, with the town providing infrastructure such as parking and restaurants and the fort drawing visitors.
Jennings said the fort now attracts about 30,000 visitors a year. The goal is 50,000, and recent efforts to make over the town's waterfront and business district could help lead to that figure being realized.
"When I first came here, Delaware City was a little rough around the edges, but it has really come up," he said.
"This is a town that has a vision for itself, and it's trying to re-create itself, and I think it's certainly on the right path."
