I would like to start a series of posts devoted to best practices when designing mobile applications. So in this first post I will describe the MVC pattern that I have been using when creating CF applications for the customers.
I realize that a lot has been written on the subject, explaning what the MVC pattern is. If you don't know what it is, you can start from the Wikipedia. The main purpose of the MVC pattern is to decouple data access and business logic from data presentation and user interaction. While Mobile Client Software Factory developed by the P&P group implements it (actually it's a combination of MVP and MVC patterns), I think that their implementation is too heavy and slow for mobile devices. That's why I came up with my own implementation which I think is much more lightweight and simpler than the P&P one. So let's start, shell we?
For simplicity, I am going to create a very straightforward application that contains just a Login form.
1. Interfaces
First we need a few simple interfaces: IView and IController:
public interface IView
void Show();
void Hide();
void Close();
string Text { get;set;}
public interface IController
IView View
As you can see, IView interface essentially declares methods that exist in any Form, it means that we wouldn't even need to implement them.
2. Add a new form: LoginForm
Let's add a new form, drop a few textboxes and labels (txtUser and txtPassword), add menu items (Exit and OK). It should look like this:
Since it's a login form, the requirements should be obvious : when the OK menu is selected take the values from the text boxes and either compare them to some existing values from the local database or via a web service etc... and return the result to the same form and show it in the status label. If we would not use the MVC pattern, we'd just end up with the code that makes appropriate calls to let's say a web service directly in the OK menu event handler, making future modifications for the business logic or UI more difficult.
3. Add ILoginView interface
public interface ILoginView : IView
void UpdateStatus(string status);
event EventHandler Exit;
event EventHandler Login;
string User { get;}
string Password { get; }
This new interface inherits from our base IView interface.
4. Implement LoginController class
This class is going to hold the logic that will be using the ILoginView interface to communicate with the LoginForm. We add the LoginController class and make sure that it implements the IController interface we've declared earlier:
public class LoginController: IController
private ILoginView view;
public LoginController(ILoginView view)
this.view = view;
private void AttachView(ILoginView view)
// Hook up into the view's events
view.Login += new EventHandler(view_Login);
view.Exit += new EventHandler(view_Exit);
void view_Exit(object sender, EventArgs e)
void view_Login(object sender, EventArgs e)
// The login event is been raised from the form.
// Ideally we should pass the user and password to a Business layer to validate against database or a web service
// For now we'll just compare to some hardcoded values
if (view.User == "Alex" && view.Password == "test")
// Update the status on the LoginForm
view.UpdateStatus("Login successfull.");
view.UpdateStatus("Login failed.");
#region IController Members
public IView View
return view;
view = (ILoginView)value;
5. Implement the ILoginView interface in the LoginForm:
public partial class LoginForm : Form, ILoginView
private string user;
private string password;
public LoginForm()
#region ILoginView Members
public void UpdateStatus(string status)
lblStatusValue.Text = status;
public event EventHandler Exit;
public event EventHandler Login;
public string User
return user;
public string Password
return password;
private void menuOK_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
this.user = txtUser.Text;
this.password = txtPassword.Text;
// Notify the controller
if (this.Login != null)
this.Login(this, null);
private void menuExit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
// Notify the controller
if (this.Exit != null)
this.Exit(this, null);
As you should notice from this code, we don't directly talk to the controller. All what the LoginForm knows about is the ILoginView interface, which it faithfully implements and it just raises the appropriate events for whoever is listening to them. That's all for now. You can be wondering how would you connect the LoginController and ILoginView together without destroying the decoupling that we are trying to achieve. And where do we create an instance of the controller for the view? I will explain it to you in my next post. Meanwhile I welcome your comments or suggestions on how you think we should proceed.

This blew me away.
This blew me away.
I run my GoPro on my Helmet or hanging from my Rear View Mirror everyday while commuting and today I saw this Rear-Ender Accident. Since the law states that in California if a car rear-ends another, the one doing the hitting is always at fault, hence I did not stop to offer the Passat Driver a copy of the…
Yesterday I had to ride up to Temecula, CA to visit a client and on the 15 Freeway through Fallbrook I saw this JEEP Wrangler with a pickup bed on it labeled "BRUTE" on the side riding on this car carrier.
We are told that Distracted Driving, specifically reading or sending text messages on ones cell phone while driving is as dangerous if not more dangerous than driving while under the influence of Drugs or Alcohol.
How about reading off a Tablet computer that is in your lap while driving your kids around on the Freeway.
Currently there are 5 major brush fires in Northern San Diego County where I live, and two of them have caused major freeways to close because the fire jumped over the freeway. The 5 Freeway as it runs along the Coast and Camp Pendleton has 5 lanes of traffic in each direction, with the average lane being 12 feet wife…
So, with my bike in the shop I am driving my STI to work and having to sit in traffic with all the other cagers.

My wife and my in-laws, total 8 people, vacationed in Jaco, but we stayed at Hotel La Rosa de America our first and last nights in Costa Rica. This is a perfect place to start and end such a trip. The botanical gardens are wonderful, you can hear a little wildlife when you wake up in the morning (this can be good or bad), and the complimentary breakfast is delicious. The hotel booked us shuttles to and from the airport and provided some helpful tips on the adventures we were looking into.
Additionally, Hotel La Rosa de America helped us retrieve some overcharges on our rental car. We were overcharged $180.00 and figured we stood little chance on getting this back seeing we were arguing with a rental agency 2000 miles away. The hotel helped us out with our communications and we have received every penny back.

Not enough drama in my wardrobe lately, hence the slightly over-the-top blazer selection. A man-repeller, if you will.
I'm not quite sure how a necklace can be beachy, yet vintage-y, yet regal, but this piece somehow is. There's something very striking about it, which of course I love. Anyway, you can find this and other covetable beauties on JewelMint. Use the promo code: BOCT50 before Oct. 31 and get 50% off your first JewelMint purchase!

Large arenas across America—and now in the United Kingdom—have been hosting the high-tech spectacle Walking with Dinosaurs
Fifteen full-size dinosaurs "stomp" across the stage, fight, and kill each other in a choreographed retelling of "their 200-million-year domination of life on earth."
The 2.5 million Americans who paid to watch the $20 million show were probably not expecting a 70-minute sermon on dinosaur evolution. But the non-stop evolution content shouldn't be so surprising, given that Walking with Dinosaurs was spun off the BBC TV program of the same name.
Walking with Dinosaurs is hosted by an actor who plays the role of a paleontologist named "Huxley" (homage to Thomas Huxley, "Darwin's bulldog" who popularized Darwin's evolutionary ideas in the late 1800s). The show is so well-crafted that its incorrect claims come across as legitimate.
In a world easily deceived by appearances, this spectacle will surely buttress the BBC's agenda to indoctrinate young people and adults in evolution and millions of years of earth history. The truth, however, is not found on a manmade stage. It is found in God's inspired Word.

She thinks there are nebulae
in the rough of my gutter bones,
some stargazing sanctuary
for lonely outcasts to lay their heads.
I am but a car crash,
inside eyelids,
& red inked corrections
on crosshatched skin.
Made up of moans,
the clutching of bedsheets;
I am contemplating
ripping my ribs apart
& proving
I never had a heart at all.
But my moon shy love;
she is determined
to try & wake the dead.
After I read this ... I was talking to a friend of mine, and I started talking in a poetic way, I was talking in a style like this (your poem thing), and he said "what has gotten into you?" And I responded with "Can I speak in poetry from now on?" But still, this is an amazing poem, I love all your work, and can relate to allot of it. Thanks for making such wonderful work for the rest of us to enjoy
congratulations on the DLD, dearling

Sometimes I feel like I'm a car crash, too. But then someone comes along and picks up the parts to make a new vehicle and the road goes on. This is a random comment, I'm sorry. Just thought I'd let you know I'm still here reading and enjoying your poems even though I don't have much to tell you in terms of constructive criticism or whatever. How is your scrapbook coming along, by the way?
Aww, I've missed you--though I figured you were probably lurking around somewhere. My art journal is coming along slowly, but I am enjoying it. I might post some more from it one day.

Once Upon A Read-A-Thon Mini-Challenge #1
This mini-challenge is hosted by Bailey at IB Book Blogging. She asks:
Mini Challenge Question 1:
What is your favorite type of myth (Greek, Roman, Egyptian etc)?
Honestly, I find myself being drawn to myths from all cultures. However, I do find myself liking creation myths above others.
Mini Challenge Question 2:
What is your favorite book with some type of mythology in it?
Oddly enough, one of the first books that I read and completed for this read-a-thon was FALLING UNDER by Gwen Hayes, which is reminiscent of the Hades/Persephone myth, and I really enjoyed reading it.
I'm not sure that I could choose one favorite, but I've been reading a good amount of YA books lately that deal with mythology. Of these recent reads, I absolutely loved DARKNESS BECOMES HER by Kelly Keaton. Another recent read, in which the world-building was fantastic was the adult urban fantasy by Jenna Black, DARK DESCENDANT.
Now, I'm off to take a short lunch break, and then I'm going right back to reading. If you are participating in the read-a-thon, leave a comment. I'll be sure to check back in, so if you want to leave a link to your challenge or update post, I'll come visit during my next break!

The 2009 Import and Export Market for Raw Sisal and Other Genus Agave Textile Fibers in Italy
- August 2009
- Region: Italy
- 16 pages
- ICON Group International
On the demand side, exporters and strategic planners focusing on raw sisal and other genus agave textile fibers in Italy face a number of questions. Which countries are supplying raw sisal and other genus agave textile fibers to Italy? How important is Italy compared to others in terms of the entire global and regional market? How much do the imports of raw sisal and other genus agave textile fibers vary from one country of origin to another in Italy? On the supply side, Italy also exports raw sisal and other genus agave textile fibers. Which countries receive the most exports from Italy? How are these exports concentrated across buyers? What is the value of these exports and which countries are the largest buyers?
This report was created for strategic planners, international marketing executives and import/export managers who are concerned with the market for raw sisal and other genus agave textile fibers in Italy. With the globalization of this market, managers can no longer be contented with a local view. Nor can managers be contented with out-of-date statistics which appear several years after the fact. I have developed a methodology, based on macroeconomic and trade models, to estimate the market for raw sisal and other genus agave textile fibers for those countries serving Italy via exports, or supplying from Italy via imports. It does so for the current year based on a variety of key historical indicators and econometric models.
In what follows, Chapter 2 begins by summarizing where Italy fits into the world market for imported and exported raw sisal and other genus agave textile fibers. The total level of imports and exports on a worldwide basis, and those for Italy in particular, is estimated using a model which aggregates across over 150 key country markets and projects these to the current year. From there, each country represents a percent of the world market. This market is served from a number of competitive countries of origin. Based on both demand- and supply-side dynamics, market shares by country of origin are then calculated across each country market destination. These shares lead to a volume of import and export values for each country and are aggregated to regional and world totals. In doing so, we are able to obtain maximum likelihood estimates of both the value of each market and the share that Italy is likely to receive this year. From these figures, rankings are calculated to allow managers to prioritize Italy compared to other major country markets. In this way, all the figures provided in this report are forecasts that can be combined with internal information sources for strategic planning purposes.
After the worldwide summary in Chapter 2 of both imports and exports of raw sisal and other genus agave textile fibers, Chapter 3 goes into detail on imports, but for each major country of origin serving Italy. A "major" market is defined as a country where Italy represents a substantially large share of either imports or exports. For each major country exporting to Italy, one can thus observe how important Italy is to that exporting country compared to other countries of the world. Chapter 4 does the same, but for exports of raw sisal and other genus agave textile fibers originating from Italy, for each major country of destination. In doing so, one can discover the share that Italy has in each major market; this share value is often used as a measure of competitiveness for Italy. In all cases, the total dollar volume and percentage share values by major trading partner are provided. Combined, Chapters 3 and 4 present a the total picture for imports and exports of raw sisal and other genus agave textile fibers to and from Italy to and from all other major countries in the world. "Raw Sisal and Other Genus Agave Textile Fibers" as a category is defined in this report following the definition given by the United Nations Statistics Division Classification Registry using the Standard International Trade Classification, Revision 3 (SITC, Rev. 3). The SITC code that defined "raw sisal and other genus agave textile fibers" is 26541 . SHOW LESS READ MORE >

July is a great month to come to Sicily if you like your food! Here are some ideas about what ingredients are in season (if you're cooking at your villa!) and what to order if you're eating out!
In-season local ingredientstomatoeschick peasgreen beanscourgettesleaves of the "long" courgette - tenerumicourgette flowerszucchini lunghi (long, light green courgettes)auberginespeppersseafood and fish in abundancepearsgrapesplumsmelonspeacheswatermeloncherries
What to order
Pasta con i tenerumi (a light very liquid soup often served cool with tomatoes, garlic, the leaves of the "long" courgette (tenerumi), onion and broken spaghetti)Insalata all'Eoliana (light salad of anchovy fillets, capers, red onion, garlic, cherry tomatoes and toasted bread)Caponata (a chutney of fried aubergine chunks, tomatoes, capers, olives, onions, celery, vinegar and olive oilPasta con pesto Trapanese (pasta with a raw paste of tomatoes, garlic, almonds and a little basil)Involtini di pesce spada (swordfish roulades filled with breadcrumbs, raisins and pine kernels)Pepata di cozze (mussels cooked in lots of pepper, olive oil and garlic)Frutta di stagione!
See our definitive Sicilian recipe page >>
1. Go to the beaches "off-the-beaten-track": many of Sicily's best beaches can get crowded in late July so why not head to those which remain relatively free. You will have to walk a bit, and take provisions for the day (there are no lidos at the following beaches) but it is well worth the effort and you'll be on some of the most unspoilt stretches of sand anywhere in the Med! Try the pebbly coves and transparent waters of Lo Zingaro Nature Reserve, accessed from Scopello or San Vito Lo Capo in the north-west of Sicily, or the Vendicari Nature Reserve in the south-east, near Noto. Just east of Sciacca is the beach of Torre Salsa and a little further east the large pine forest-enclosed beach of Eracloa Minoa.
2. All aboard! Another way of beating the sometimes crowded beaches in July is to hire a boat for a day or two. It's a great way to discover parts of the coast that are difficult to get to on foot and you'll always find some translucent waters in which to dive... Take a look at our boat charters!
3. Take a nap in the afternoon... It can get quite hot in July in the early hours of the afternoon, so why not do as the locals have done for centuries? Head off to the beach or to see the sights early in the morning, have a light lunch and then take to your bed for a snooze. Then, at around 4pm, head back to the beach or your pool and start anticipating the balmy, Epicurean evening ahead, complete with well-earned aperitif, and a convivial al fresco dinner stretching long into the night!
4. Head up Mount Etna for the last of the snow! That's right, over the 3,000m level you might still find a little snow on Etna! The summer is an excellent time to go up A Muntagna, with visibility often good. You can get off the beaten track by taking one of our 4x4 vulcanologist-guided trips...
Having a car will help you make the most from your holiday to Sicily. Get the best deal here.

A fter 63 years in its previous location, Schoolcraft Memorial Hospital is now officially settled into its new home.
T he move has been a work in progress for about a year and a half.
Most of Schoolcraft Memorial Hospital's 240 employees say the hospital's move is bittersweet, but they believe the benefits of the new building outweigh the nostalgia they feel.
"It's a dream come true to be able, to be working for somewhere for 27 years, and to walk into this building, it's just, this is a dream come true for all of us. We've worked very hard, and I can't wait to start my day," said Ann Taylor, a Registered Nurse in Schoolcraft Memorial Hospital's Emergency Room.
At 8 o'clock Monday morning, the brand new one opened, and patients were moved there. Now, any new patients will be in the new hospital.
And according to doctors and employees alike, there are plenty of positive attributes the new building has to offer. Overall, they say patient convenience is the biggest plus. The new building is more handicap accessible than the old one, and rooms are more privatized for patients. Staff also say the technology improvements and bigger rooms are very helpful.
"We have two O.R.s (operating rooms), and one of them is one of the largest O.R.s available in the U.P., and it's for doing those special procedures you need the extra space for, when you're doing some of the orthopedic-type situations," said Cathy Flores, Schoolcraft Memorial Hospital's Emergency Preparedness Coordinator.
"I'm very proud of our hospital. There's good times, there's bad times, just like any place that you work, but this is where I want to be and I am so proud of our E.R.," said Taylor.
The hospital is now the newest health care facility in the Upper Peninsula. As for the old hospital, there is a tentative plan in place for demolition.

Best Bar with Snacks (2011)
Jimmy's No. 43
Deep in the confines of a nearly windowless basement on 7th Street, there is a transportive Euro-style gastropub featuring an array of beers from far and wide (12 on tap and 29 by the bottle) and wines (a good array, with several by the glass), as well as snacks that transcend the chicken fingers, nachos, and potato skins you'd expect at a pub. Because this is Jimmy's No. 43, where food is not a second thought. The bar offers regular wine and brewery tastings and dinners, and an array of seasonal, local menus and events. To call the food "snacks" minimizes the reality—there's a full blue-plate special on Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays that will run you just $15 with a pint, plus oysters, burgers, shrimp and grits, and mussels. But there are bona fide snacks, too, including addictive spiced candy walnuts, mini skillet-fried beer sausages with Dijon mustard, blistered, salty shishito peppers that were once described to us by a waitress as "like popcorn" (they are!), and the requisite cheese plate. This is not your grandpa's bar food—or maybe, actually, it is. 43 East 7th Street, 212-982-3006, jimmysno43.com (10003)

Peritoneal Dialysis Diet
(Dialysis Diet [Peritoneal Dialysis])
What Is a Peritoneal Dialysis Diet?This is a special diet for people receiving peritoneal dialysis .
Why Should I Follow a Peritoneal Dialysis Diet?The kidneys help:
- Filter waste from your body
- Control fluid levels
- Regulate levels of potassium and sodium
- Protein
- Sodium
- Potassium
- Phosphorous
- Fluid
Peritoneal Dialysis Diet BasicsThis diet is strict. It may also need to be changed as your kidney functioning changes. That is why you have to work closely with your dietician. The dietician will determine how much of each nutrient you can eat and design a meal plan that is right for you.Elements that are managed include:
ProteinYou will need extra protein. This is because some protein is lost into the peritoneal fluid. If you do not eat enough protein, dialysis can cause protein deficiency and muscle loss. Your dietitian will help determine how much protein you need. Make sure that the protein you eat is high-quality. High-quality protein sources include meat, fish, poultry, and eggs. Milk contains high-quality protein, but it is also high in potassium and phosphorous. Grains and vegetables contain low-quality protein. You may need to limit your intake of these.
SodiumSodium is found in table salt and many other foods. Most canned and processed foods contain high amounts. Because sodium is found in so many foods, it is easy to eat too much of it. When the kidneys are not fully functioning, extra sodium can result in fluid retention and high blood pressure . Dialysis can help remove some of the extra sodium, but it does not remove all of it. Limit the amount of sodium in your diet. Do not add salt to foods while cooking or eating. If you want to add more flavor to your food, use herbs and spices. Salt substitutes contain potassium.
PotassiumPotassium is found in many fruits and vegetables. It is a mineral that is essential for proper muscle functioning and heart rhythm. When you have kidney failure , potassium can build up in the blood. This could cause heart failure . While on dialysis, your potassium level will be closely monitored. You may need to restrict your intake. Foods high in potassium include potatoes, tomatoes, citrus fruits, avocados, bananas, and dried fruit. Try to choose low-potassium foods. You may still be able to eat your favorite high-potassium foods if you limit them to a very small portion size. Your dietitian can help with this.
PhosphorousPhosphorous is another mineral that needs to be limited on this diet. If phosphorous builds up in the blood, it can draw calcium out of the bones. This causes your bones to weaken. Phosphorous is found in protein-rich foods. Examples include dairy products, meat, legumes, nuts, and seeds. Whole grains and cola also contain phosphorous. Your doctor may have you take a medicine called a phosphate-binder. This soaks up extra phosphorous and passes it out in your stool.
FluidsIn peritoneal dialysis, fluid is added and later withdrawn from the peritoneal membrane. You may need to increase or decrease your fluid intake. This depends on the balance of fluid in your body. It is important to remember that many foods are made up of mostly fluid. Examples include fruits, soups, and dairy products. Consuming too much fluid can result in fluid retention. This can lead to increased blood pressure and edema.
CaloriesThe type of dialysis that you are having provides some extra calories from the dialysis solution. The sugar in this solution gets absorbed into the blood and can provide an extra 500 calories per day. This varies from person to person. In your case, you may still need to increase your caloric intake. Your dietician can help you with this.

Five Weeks in a Balloon is a 1962 adventure film loosely based on the novel of the same name by Jules Verne filmed in CinemaScope. It was produced and directed by Irwin Allen; his last feature film in the 1960s before moving to producing several science fiction television series. Though set in Africa, it was filmed in California. Balloonist Donald Piccard acted as the film's technical advisor. For visual effects, a model of the balloon was used as well as a full-sized unicorn gondola hung on a crane.

The film begins with the flight of the balloon Jupiter, invented by Professor Fergusson (Cedric Hardwicke). In the unicorn-shaped gondola, the passengers Chiddingfold (Ronald Long) and Sir Henry Vining (Richard Haydn) scream in horror as the balloon rapidly descends, but the Professor remains calm as he planned for this to happen. He then signals the pilot Jacques (Fabian) to ascend the balloon, who explains how balloon is able to ascend and descend without the loss of gas or ballast. The balloon successfully lands and attracts a crowd, but Sir Henry and the other passenger are dissatisfied after the seemingly disastrous descent. Sir Henry, the president of the Royal Geographic Society, refuses to fund the Professor's plan to explore east Africa, while Chiddingfold leaves claiming he has an "appointment". The Professor seems out of financial backing for his plans, but an American journalist talks to Fergusson about having his nephew and star reporter Donald O'Shea (Red Buttons) as part of Fergusson's plan to explore east Africa.[further explanation needed]
When he[clarification needed] arrives at the Prime Minister's office in Zanzibar, he[clarification needed] is given the mission to use his[clarification needed] craft to claim areas of uncharted west Africa for the Crown before slave traders make their claim to the territory. Fergusson agrees. The following day, Consul tells the bad news that the slave traders know of his plan and would reach the river Volta in six weeks, leaving him with five.[clarification needed] To make matters worse,[editorializing] the Queen has sent Sir Henry Vining to accompany him. He wants to be referred to as General Vining and proclaims himself the "expert on Africa."
Meanwhile, in the marketplace, Jacques finds O'Shea rescuing a slave girl named Makia (Barbara Luna) and they bring her along, and they go to the Consul's office. Consul Townsend orders Makia to be returned to her owner, but she fights the slave trader and leaves on a horse. The people in the marketplace become outraged and threaten to destroy Jupiter. O'Shea begins to be viewed as a troublemaker and as the balloon takes off he is shocked to know that the plans of the journey have been changed. The balloon lands in a forest and they have dinner. As they converse at the table they notice their food is being taken away and find Makia hiding under the table. She says she hid up in the crow's nest of the balloon and will not leave O'Shea, who does not want her and offers her to the others on board. Disappointed she tries to leave into the dangerous wilderness only to be stopped and eventually agrees to be a passenger aboard. Meanwhile, a wild chimpanzee walks out of the forest and joins the crew. As the rest of the crew sleeps, Jacques and the chimp drink coffee. Makia comes out of the gondola unable to sleep in fear of the wilderness and suggests Jacques to buy her. Jacques explains how slavery is uncivilized and explains marriage. Lightning is heard and they take off the balloon.
The following day, they land in the Arab city of Hezak. People run in fear, until a Muslim priest comes out and refers to O'Shea as the Moon God. The crew have dinner in the Sultan's palace, where a slave trader named Ahmed (Peter Lorre) comes in with a kidnapped American woman (Barbara Eden). Ahmed points at the moon emerging in the clouds, to which the Sultan (Billy Gilbert) proclaims them as fakes. The crew escape quickly, but Ahmed climbs a ladder aboard. When they land they find out that Ahmed has stolen diamonds and medals from the Sultan. The American woman introduces herself as Susan Gale explains that she is a missionary. The professor explains they are headed for the Volta river to claim the land and stop slavery, but claims O'Shea doesn't care about the slave trade. He tries to explain that he is only a journalist but Susan interrupts saying "trafficking human lives is everyone's concern, either you're for it or against it," to which Ahmed says "I'm for it."
The balloon continues its progress and lands near a forest. Susan is still angry at Donald and still thinks he doesn't care about slavery but Makia explains how he saved her from slavers. Meanwhile, O'Shea goes out hunting with a gun provided by General Vyning. He walks into the forest and sees a lion, but when he tries to shoot it he realizes that the gun is unloaded. He then falls into a trap set by natives, who free him, but when he runs away they chase after him with spears. Quickly the crew takes the balloon off as a spear narrowly misses them inside the gondola. As they fly again, Donald and Susan build a relationship. After they land again, however, O'Shea accidentally hammers the anchor away, setting the balloon free. The anchor luckily catches the top of a tree, but everyone including Susan becomes disappointed at him. The Professor and General consider offering O'Shea to the slavers, as they tell how he was only aboard to carry testimony for Americans, but now they had a less troublesome Susan Gale. However, O'Shea wins back the crew's trust when he spots out a sandstorm. The balloon lands in an oasis and the crew relaxes. Ahmed, however, is ordered to work and thinks he is being treated as a slave, telling Jacques "I'm not a slave, I sell them!" A gunshot is heard and the Sheik's men on horseback come to arrest the Professor, Vyning, Makia and Susan, taking them to Timbuktu. Ahmed and Jacques stay the gondola while O'Shea, who was picking dates, and the chimp stay in the trees until the men leave.
In Timbuktu, the arrested crew are set to die as infidels and Makia be sold as a slave under the order of the Sheik Ageiba. Disguised as Arabs, Jacques, Ahmed and Donald purchase Makia from a slave trader (also played by Billy Gilbert). Makia tells of the plan to kill the rest of the crew and they fly their balloon to the top of a tower to save them. After defeating many of the men, they take off, but a sword is thrown onto the balloon's envelope, causing a slow leak to occur. The Professor, now knowing the slavers have less than two days, feels certain defeat, but Donald suggests they fly over night.
The following day, they reach the Volta river, but sword plugged on the envelope starts to rip away, causing the balloon to descend. Everything is thrown overboard to help the balloon gain some lift as they fly towards a bridge, but see the slavers. The head slaver shoots the balloon causing it to deflate as the crew climb into the crows' nest. The anchor is thrown onto the bridge and the gondola is released, causing the balloon to ascend and break the bridge, causing most of the slavers to drown. The head slaver, however, survives with their flag. The balloon's crew swim across the river, except for Ahmed, who remains seated on the balloon's drifting envelope because he can't swim. Donald goes back to retrieve the Union Jack as the envelope raft tumbles over the waterfall. Ahmed tells Donald to jump with the flag. He then kills the slave trader by throwing a dart into his chest, sending him falling into the water. The crew are finally proud that O'Shea had done something triumphant, but he falls into the water. Susan tries to save him and falls in the water and they kiss, while Jacques and Makia also kiss. General Vyning admits to Professor Fergusson that he was wrong about his balloon. The film ends with the chimpanzee finding a companion for itself.

In 1955 Tony Curtis announced plans to produce and star in a version of the novel for his own company and hired Kathleen Dormer to write a script.[3] In June 1961 Irwin Allen announced he had secured rights to the novel after six years of negotiation and would likely make the film at 20th Century Fox.[4]
One of the themes of Five Weeks in a Balloon is a race. Verne's novel features the Professor attempting to make discoveries ahead of other explorers whilst Allen's film has the Professor trying to beat the claims of a slave trading expedition. There was also a race between two producers attempting to be the first to film the story; Irwin Allen, producer of Five Weeks in a Balloon, and the Woolner Brothers, who in 1961 made Flight of the Lost Balloon directed by Nathan Juran. Though Verne's novel was in the public domain, Fox and Allen brought legal pressure against the Woolners to drop all mention of Jules Verne from their film. The Woolner's also were stopped from using another title for the film, Cleopatra and the Cyclops, intended to exploit the hype of Fox's own Cleopatra.[5] Allen's film is played much more for comedy than Juran's film.
In Verne's novel and the Woolner Brothers' film the balloon was named the Victoria. Allen's film renames it the Jupiter with Allen giving the name Jupiter II to the spaceship in Lost in Space.
