11.Mum,it's me.Hopefully,this Mothering Sunday you will get to hear those three words.I will,of course,try to phone you.I hope we will be able to speak for the allowed 10minutes.But I suspect many inmates will be using the phone,so if I don't call and if we don't speak,then this is what I would have said:
It's not your fault that I am here.I know that deep in your heart you have questioned whether my current circumstance is somehow your fault,if the reckless stupidity of my past is somehow a failure on your part.It is not.Only one person is to blame,only one person should hurt-me.You have always taught me that when the room goes dark,you can wait for the lights to be switched back on or you can search in the dark and turn the light on yourself.You are my light.You always have been and always will be.There is nobody I admire more,nobody I have strived harder to please in my life,which is why my current failure hurts me so much.
I am so sorry that I will not be there to see you,but I want you to know that now,as always,you are here with me.In my darkest hours,and in the coldest loneliness of my past few months,my mind has so often wandered to the past,to when it was you and me-and I have been able to smile.Yours is the strength that I draw upon.
A parent's job is to make sure that they pass on the best of themselves to their children.You have done that.It is the inner you in me that will get me through this.
I have failed you so epically,but you have never failed me.If I think back to the tears I shed when Dad left,all those years ago,I see you through their misty glaze.You holding me and you telling me we'd be OK,and we will be.We are and always will be the best team.
Childhood heroes such as footballers,actors and rock stars are clichéd.If the job's done right,a child's heroes should be their parents-you are mine.The strength you showed after the divorce from Dad to find your biological parents,to go to university and get your teaching qualifications,to begin your life again,is the strength that I draw on now.It is the belief in myself,it is the belief you have in me,that tells me that once I am released I can and will rebuild my life.I will make you proud again.I will make you happy to have me as your son.Yours is the will that gets me through every day.
I don't believe you can judge a person for the mistakes they make,as we all make them,but you can judge them for what they do afterwards.And after this,when it is all over,you will still have a son with the same hopes and dreams.They have not diminished.If you can dream it,then you have to believe it can happen-right?
So this Mothering Sunday,please think back to that morning in the 80s,the first Mother's Day without Dad,when a six-year-old me got up early and made breakfast for you.Do you remember it?Could you ever forget?A slice of bread a doorstep thick and a wedge of cheese equally dense.You didn't have to eat it,but you did,chewing every dry mouthful.I know now why you forced yourself-because it had been made with love.Well,things don't change this year-this letter is that bread and cheese (it sure has plenty of the cheese!).
I love you so much.I am sorry I have let you down,but you have taught me that we will always pick ourselves up and become better than we were before.Thank you for everything and this year,more than ever:
Happy Mothering Sunday.
Love,your son

5.Why buy a new car when you can improve the one you have with the latest technology?Here are two new methods that will not only make life behind wheel more comfortable but may also end up saving you money.
WI-FI on Wheels
 It's not enough that children complain
about having nothing to watch on television.
These days,they even complain about having
nothing to watch in the car.Fortunately,for
every unsatisfied youth,there is a new
technological solution:Wi-Fi Internet access 
for the back seat of your vehicle. 
   In the United States,Chrysler is the first
to offer such a system,which turns any
Chrysler or Dodge into a Wi-Fi hotspot,Called
UConnect,the  499 dealer-installed option is a
high-speed cell-like Internet connection with a
wireless router that sits in your car's trunk(行
李箱).Monthly service costs  29 for Internet
access,which is available to any device that
has Wi-Fi and is within 100 feet of your car.
With UConnect,passengers can check
emails messages on a laptop,send instant
messages to friends or watch YouTube videos
online.It allows passengers to search for
movie listings on a smart phone or connect a
Sony PSP video game player to the Web.It
also offers the ability to freely upload photos
from a Wi-Fi-equipped digital camera to an
online sharing service like Flickr.
For critics who claim that putting Wi-Fi
Internet access in a car feeds the danger of
driver disfr2K;(ion(分散注意力),parents may
well disagree:What's more distracting,the
temptation to check email or a lot of children
talking to you from the back seat?
             Watch Your Back    
Blind spots behind cars and SUV's make
backing up dangerous as well as potentially
deadly for children.Nationally,the group Kids
and Cars estimates that two children a week
are killed by cars backing up.The  
Transportation Department  is  establishing
visibility standards for future vehicles,but
there's no need to wait.   
    A back-view back system can be an 
expensive option in a new car.In the 2008  
Subaru Tribeca,for example,the back-view
camera option is available only in connection
with the inner navigation system,at a price of

vehicle's backup light.It can send a back-view

Audiovox claims the camera housing is

by occasional interference,but the picture,
with its wide 110-degree camera point,is good
enough to see things or children behind you.
