Avoiding the money pit
By John Schooler
Remember the movie "The Money Pit" where a young couple struggles to repair a hopelessly dilapidated house that literally falls in around them? That 1980s slapstick comedy may not be funny for many first-time homebuyers dealing with unexpected bills that squelch the joys of home ownership. To avoid surprises that could move you from your dream house into the poor house, follow these suggestions:
- Get a home inspection.
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. While home inspections vary dramatically from state to state, according to the National Association of Certified Home Inspectors, your home inspection should address:
- Structural Elements
- Exterior Elements
- Roof and Attic
- Plumbing
- Systems and Components
- Electrical
- Appliances
- Garage
Although your home inspection report will not describe in detail the condition of every component, it should note items that are defective or require immediate service. Serious problems that should be spelled out include: health and safety issues, roofs with a short life expectancy, furnace malfunctions, foundation deficiencies, and moisture or drainage issues. Keep in mind that you may need to hire an additional inspector with a specific license to inspect and address asbestos, radon, lead, mold, or rodents and other pests.
Naturally, it's rare that a home inspector compiles a report without a punch list of items that need attention. While the seller may offer to address issues raised in the report, it's often wiser to negotiate a price reduction and hire your own contractors so you can supervise the repairs.
- Get the right mortgage.
Maybe you've experimented with mortgage calculators to determine how much mortgage you can afford, but as you become more serious in your home search, it's a good idea to get pre-qualified for a loan. That means you go to a lender and apply for a mortgage so you'll know exactly how much you can afford.
- Plan for the full cost.
If you are making the transition from renter to homeowner for the first time, there may be additional expenses you have not factored into your monthly budget. For example, if your utilities have been covered in your rent, you may want to ask your real estate broker to help you get information from the seller on how much they pay annually for heat and electricity. In addition, you might have to budget for homeowner association fees or condo association dues. Of course, you will also have to set money aside for property taxes and homeowner's insurance.
- Start a home repair account.
Remember Murphy's Law? If something can go wrong, it will, and at the worst possible time. Accordingly, if your home inspection revealed a host of "problems waiting to happen," it's wise to establish and continue to contribute to an account designated for essential future home repairs. That way, when your furnace fails in mid-January, you won't be left scrambling for the funds to fix it. Additionally, if you are new to the area and have not worked with local plumbers, electricians, or contractors, it may be a good idea to ask neighbors for referrals before you actually need these services.

Are these firms too big to fail, and too influential with politicians to successfully prosecute ANYONE? If this is allowed to go on, and no one is held accountable, what does the future hold for other veterans, much less the public? It seems that this fraud went on in a very large number of banks, and for quite awhile. Who is supposed to be watching for this fraud? Who is in charge of investigating it? Who is in charge of fines, penalties, criminal charges, etc? http://realestate.bryanellis.com/5395/13-banks-accused-of-defrauding-veterans-treasury/ This is on top of the robo signing scandal and fraud. That is on top of the scandal about secretly printing up TRILLIONS and sending it out to foreign banks, via the Federal Reserve, which has not been audited, and maybe never will be. That is on top of Fort Knox, which has not been audited since the 1960's. Is there any gold left in there? What are we doing with this gold? What purpose does it have? Why not use it? Who owns it? Who controls it?Much like the largest corporations getting bailed out during the last financial crisis, and then no one being charged and no one going to jail. Nothing seems to be changing on the legislative side to protect from another crisis from happening. We the people have lost control of our destiny through the normal channels of power. Corporations seem to be running the whole show. The can break laws at will, raid the public money coffers whenever they want for as much as they want. They can print up money on demand, (in the TRILLION, via a private for profit corporation called the Federal Reserve. They can elect anyone they want, and create laws that favor them against the people's will.
Alan Greenspan gave an Economic Outlook speech that was shown on C Span.. here are his predictions.......
A Call to Action
December 6, 2008 - Celebrating a New Day for the Earth
Friday, November 14, 2008
To Friends of the Climate Crisis Coalition,
On Saturday, December 6, 2008, concerned citizens around the world will be participating in the fourth annual Global Day of Climate Action. This important day will be midway through the annual UN climate conference, taking place this year in Poznan, Poland. The Climate Crisis Coalition's international ally, The Global Climate Campaign, is synchronizing demonstrations around the world in as many places as possible - to call on world leaders to take urgent action on climate change. As in previous years, CCC is calling on friends and allies to partake in any way they can.
This year, actions in the U.S. are particularly pertinent because the U.N. conference is going to set the parameters for the all-important post-Kyoto treaty to be signed in December, 2009 in Copenhagen. And with the hoped-for dawning of a new era in Washington, this will represent a last chance for the U.S. to clearly reverse its obstructionist role and set the tone so that a significant, strong and binding treaty can be negotiated. The perils our planet faces demand no less.
CCC will again provide an online network where people can find out about events taking place across the country and groups and individuals can register new events. We only have three weeks to put this together, but with our all-consuming elections behind us, and growing number of citizens eager to keep the President-elect Obama and the new Congress focused on the climate crisis, CCC is convinced that it is not too late for significant actions to take place across the U.S. on or around December 6th. Many are all ready in the works.
WHAT YOU CAN DO: Rallies, teach-ins, forums, vigils, movie showings and other gatherings of all types are encouraged. CCC will publicize and report on these actions through postings at the Climate Action: 12/6/08 site.
The Issues
CCC is urging participants to concentrate on four demands.
Binding and enforceable climate legislation in the U.S within the first 100 days of the new Congress that will begin to sharply curtail greenhouse-gas emissions. The U.S. must also exert leadership toward reaching a similarly effective post-Kyoto treaty.
Reduced levels of atmospheric CO2. Our allies at 350.org, inspired by climate scientist James Hansen and author Bill McKibben, are making a compelling case for a drastic reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, not just to level off atmospheric concentrations that are already far to high, but to reduce them to a level where the earth and life as we know it has a fighting chance. Top climate scientists have come up with the number of 350 parts per million: that must be our goal and our rallying cry.
100% carbon-free electricity within 10 years. Al Gore has issued a five-part plan to repower America with a commitment to producing 100 percent of our electricity from carbon-free sources within 10 years. This is a goal that must be embraced by all.
Pricing carbon pollution will create powerful incentives for our economy to rely upon energy efficiency and renewable energy sources, both of which will reduce emissions, create green jobs and promote economic and social equity. This involves gradually-increasing carbon taxes on the use of coal, oil and gas, with revenues used to reduce other taxes or distributed directly to individuals on an equal basis. Any of this revenue directed toward developing green energy must be for truly renewable sources - excluding nuclear power and 'clean' coal.
CCC and its allies are planning a major petitioning campaign to Congress and the Obama Administration requesting that equitable carbon pricing be an essential component of a new comprehensive climate bill that needs to be enacted in the first 100 days of the 111th Congress. The website where groups and individuals can support this effort, sign the petition, and send letters to Washington will be launched on November 20th!
We now have remarkable opportunities at a unique juncture in our history. Any help that you can offer would be most appreciated. Please let us know by return email if you can assist with the December 6th Global Day of Action or with our Carbon Pricing Initiative. And, please click here to make a contribution which would now be especially appreciated.
Together, with allies around the world, we can make December 6th, 2008 an event that helps move us toward a New Day for the Earth.

Note the above news please...
Senator Phil Gramm slipped legislation that DEREGULATED banks and securities firms, which allowed them to sell ARM loans and then repackage them as bonds, stocks and more... making them invisible and part of the larger financial global market..
Gramm is solely and individually responsible for this crisis, as he CAUSED IT. Where is he now? He was promoted and is now advising McCain, and will be the new Treasury Secretary if McCain is elected. DO YOU WANT HIM IN THAT POSITION?
This crisis is so complicated that no one can figure out where the loans went, who bought them, or how it will affect anyone..
The net result though is easy to see. Banks and insurance companies are melting down, and becoming worthless, as witnessed by AIG, the largest insurance company in the world selling for what amounts to a NICKEL. The largest securities dealing firm also sold for a NICKEL..
The Feds have printed almost TRILLION dollars in the last year to bail out major companies and firms, but basically ignored the people at the bottom.. The rich get the money, while the poor suffer. The last Depression was caused by this same self centered short sighted focus.
What would happen if they bailed out every consumer with an ARM loan? Would that not stabilize the market, feed money to banks and the rest, as well as give a helping hand to those who are REALLY SUFFERING, instead of shoveling Billions to people who already own twenty mansions?
Who is directing this fiasco? President Bush... is in charge.... but I get the idea that neither Gramm nor Bush, nor McCain has any CLUE what to do. They are certainly not helping the little guys.
What will be the result? My prediction is that there will be a panic, and then a Depression... That is my prediction, based on what happened in the past.
Get ready, it will be wild ride. When people and nations lose faith in the dollar, which has nothing behind it except over stressed citizens who are losing their homes, and are now paying to bail out major corporations, banks and stock traders, what then?

November 3, 2009
It was a blue crowd at the Creigh Deeds headquarters at the Westin in Richmond on election night, both politically and emotionally. Much to the disappointment of those in attendance, Deeds lost his bid to be the next governor of Virginia to Republican Bob McDonnell..
In his concession speech, Deeds spoke to his crowd of supporters Tuesday night, letting them know, this defeat does not mean it's the end of the road.
"We loose an election but we don't give up. We still have, fight we still have spirit, we still have things to say. There's still people that need a voice, and we're gonna give them that voice," Deeds said.
The voices could be heard. Supporters continued to rally behind Deeds chanting "Deeds, Not words."Deeds made sure to take time to thank his family and Governor Tim Kaine for his support throughout the campaign.
"The role he's played here cannot go underestimated, and we have to be eternally proud of the job he's done in the toughest economy since the 1930's," Deeds said.
The state Senator tried to stay positive at the end of his speech, by looking toward the future. "This chapter is closed, but the next chapter is yet to be written."
So what does this mean, for that next chapter? For Deeds, it's back to his seat on the Virginia state Senate where democrats still have a majority.
For governor Kaine, the win for McDonnell is a big blow to his role as the Democratic National Committee Chairman. For a governor whose approval numbers have been falling recently, Kaine has to ask himself if the results are partially a referendum on him.
Lastly, for the Democratic Party as a whole, which is coming off eight years in the Governor's Mansion, the result is a possible reevaluation on their platform moving forward.

Asian Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Crispy Fried Shiitake Mushrooms
We did it! Today marks the official last day of #BrusselsSproutsWeek. I'm kind of sad actually, even though I have decided to announce a formal separation from sprouts for at least a month (next Thursday excluded). Hopefully I've convinced some haters out there to give them a second chance though!
Five Brussels sprout recipes in five days. We fried the leaves and tossed them with chili flakes and lemon, roasted them with squash for the perfect last-minute Thanksgiving side dish, shaved and eaten them raw in a salad, and tossed them with pasta.
Today, we're roasting them again, except this time we're tossing them toasted sesame seeds and a really delicious Asian-inspired sauce that totally brings back memories of this other salad I shared back in September.
Then I went all out and topped them with crispy fried shiitake mushrooms! I got the idea at the very last minute, hesitated for about a second, and then decided to fully commit to it.
In fact, they totally remind me (at least in appearance) of the crispy onions that people put on top of green bean casserole. I know I'm supposed to be focused on selling this dish, but you should totally swap out crispy onions for crisp fried shiitakes on your green bean casserole this year.
Hello wow factor.

Changing Router

Posted October 27, 2010 at 8:33AM
I currently have a Thomson TG585v7 router that was provided by Tiscali (now TalkTalk) when we signed with them two years ago.
Recently, a problem has occurred that has left me thinking that my router is on the blink. Every now and then, the "Internet" led goes off and I can no longer access the internet. It is normally a couple of hours before normal service is resumed.
However, I have a Netgear router (WPN824v2) that my Dad wants me to sell for him, but I may well buy it myself if it seems a decent replacement.
So my question is, am I able to install the Netgear router without needing to notify TalkTalk? (i.e. Can I just simply install it and be up and running, or do I need to I need to speak to TalkTalk about changing it?)

Thanks for the replies.
The Netgear DGN1000 looks pretty decent. I'm definitely going to look into getting it.
I see that it is an N router. I currently only have B/G compatible adapters. Do I need to upgrade them to be able to connect to an N router at all, or is it a case of being able to connect but just not getting the benefits of N technology?

>>> is it a case of being able to connect but just not getting the benefits of N technology?
That is the situation. An 802.11g adapter will connect as though the router were a "g" router.

Ok cool, thanks.
Just one last question - my desktop PC uses a Belkin wireless adapater (F5D7050), should this still be able to work with any Netgear router?

Posted November 17, 2010 at 4:48PM
Tell talktalk it is on the blink - maybe they will supply a free replacement. They did for me a few years ago.

To be honest, it has stopped cutting out now. But I would like to have a replacement as I still have trouble playing with friends on my PS3. I'd rather just buy a router with a well known brand and one that works well with gaming.
Thanks for the advice though :).

There shouldn't be a problem using your Belkin wireless adapter with a Netgear router. Wireless networking uses standard protocols to which all 802.11g, 802.11n etc hardware conforms.

Well I went ahead an bought a "refurbished" Netgear DGN1000 from ebay, but it's going straight back where it came from.
I get a hissing on the phone line when it's in use. I tried using different filters and cables, but it still continued. Download speeds are poor as well, barely reaching over 1mbps.
I'm thinking about buying the same model brand new from PC World, so I hope this one is just a faulty one off.

Carey Price. Hmm. What to think of him?
Everyone has him pegged already to be the next great goalie. It's possible, however, didn't writers also say that of a goalie by the name of Jim Carey?
I just don't see anything special about Carey Price. He had a bad playoff and people say he was tired from playing too much. If that's the case, does it mean he can't handle a heavy workload like most NHL goalies?

eBay's Q2 earnings beat estimates despite analyst fears over security breach
Summary: However, eBay followed up with softer sales and earnings guidance ranges for the current quarter.
A major cyber attack on eBay back in May was widely expected by analysts to play into the e-commerce giant's second quarter earnings report, published after the bell on Wednesday.
The San Jose, Calif.-headquartered corporation reported a net income of $676 million, or 53 cents per share (statement).
Non-GAAP earnings were 69 cents per share on a revenue of $4.4 billion, up 13 percent year-over-year.
Wall Street was looking for earnings of 68 cents per share on a revenue of $4.38 billion.
In prepared remarks, CEO John Donahoe acknowledged the second quarter was "challenging," but praised the commerce and payments platforms for delivering growth upwards of 26 percent annually.
PayPal generated another strong quarter while eBay's growth was hampered by its global password reset for all users. We continued our momentum in the four competitive commerce battlegrounds of mobile, local, global and data. We delivered new experiences for PayPal and eBay customers, extended PayPal and eBay into new markets, made it simple and easy for developers to integrate PayPal and offered new ways to help merchants grow.
All three of eBay's principal departments grew revenue on an annual basis. The enterprise group delivered revenue of $267 million as gross merchandise sales grew by 15 percent and same-store sales by nearly as much at 14 percent.
PayPal accounted for $1.9 billion in revenue while growing the user base by 15 percent (approximately four million new active registered accounts) to end the quarter with roughly 152 million users.
Marketplaces rounded out the quarter with $2.2 billion in revenue and 3.8 million users to end the quarter with 149 million active buyers, up 14 percent.
For the current quarter, analysts are expecting earnings of at least 71 cents per share on a revenue of $4.42 billion.
eBay followed up with a slightly softer revenue guidance range between $4.3 billion and $4.4 billion with earnings projected to fall between 65 and 67 cents a pop.
For the year, eBay's revenue forecast calls for a range of $18 billion to $18.3 billion with earnings between $2.95 and $3.00.

Every so often, someone throws up the R word (it's in the title), and businesses are called on to justify their existence beyond maximizing revenue and profits. Facebook has been put in the public crosshairs a few times this past year. There are concerns that Facebook is manipulating its user's emotions, that its ads are uncomfortably well-targeted, and, most recently, that Facebook dumbs us down by showing us spammy, substance-free garbage. On the last issue, Facebook has announced its plan to reduce its link-baiting content from sources such as Buzzfeed and Distractify.
There are plenty of legitimate gripes about Facebook. The research is pretty clear on the power of Facebook to make us feel alone rather than connected. The site is surely addictive, and it really is our responsibility to avoid being on it all day. Wait, I think I'm jumping the gun on my main point. Let's dig into the Buzzfeed issue and try to apply a reasonable standard, gripes aside.
Why is my newsfeed full of articles like "17 Animals That Are Not OK With Sweater Weather" (no, I will NOT link to that)? Facebook has a complex newsfeed algorithm based on likes/shares/comments and the poster's relationship to you. We see spammy content because this is what a lot of our friends, even the smart ones, like to read when they are browsing. The algorithm would begin to phase the junk out, if you didn't like it a little bit as well.
This is where the R word comes in. First are my arguments against a social responsibility for better content:
If Upworthy puts more eyeballs on Facebook for longer, it is good from a shareholder's perspective. Surely we don't apply a standard of right and wrong in industries like, for example, cleaning products or batteries or appliances. In most industries we applaud rather than complain when an innovation wins out. For the Menlo Park, California company to alter its newsfeed would be a significant exception to its goal of maximizing user engagement (and by extension, ad dollars). Maybe this strategy might be more profitable from a user experience perspective in the long run. Yet, if we assume the company has smart decision makers (it certainly has the money to hire them), we wouldn't need critics to demand a change based on responsibility when self-interest would suffice. The content is here because, by and large, we like it. All hail Buzzfeed, the new leader in journalism. Let's not impose our higher ideals on other Facebookers and instead let live.
And by know I bet you're jumping out of your seat waiting to give me counterarguments, in favor of Facebook's social responsibility:
The social media industry has switching costs so great that it does not function properly (what are you going to do, use Google+?). Financial pressures encourage Facebook to think short term as opposed to long term. We can acknowledge behavioral scientists who show that small corrections can "nudge" people to much better decisions (we could demand a limit to linkbait, or use a more creative approach such as making link font be smaller and red and have a disapproving emoticon next to it. See mandatory nutrition facts - shame works). In these cases, a course correction could be in both the public and private good. At some point can't we call a spade a spade and say Distractify is a bad influence?
Yes, I believe we can say pretty objectively that reading spam is worse for society than staying informed. Businesses, even armed with tons of data, do not always produce the best products. Part of the problem is Facebook's fault, because people (myself included) have limited self-control and will click on, read and eat what is in front of them.
Also, maybe we shouldn't look businesses to be our saviors. Just as you wouldn't demand Kellogg to make Poptarts healthy or Sony's Playstation help you get fit, we shouldn't demand a social media company be not something it is not.
Facebook is not the New York Times. My main point is that we should not wait and expect Facebook to act in the public good, and instead should look inward to improve our habits.
For those who believe thinking and learning is important, what could we do instead? We can unfollow spammy sites (or spammy friends) in our newsfeeds, unsubscribe to our junky sources, and shame ourselves to consciously avoid clicking on what we know is a waste of time. The same consciousness can apply to Facebook.com as a whole. Set a (clear and public) limit of how much you will visit unproductive sites without first doing what you need to do. We can and should adopt a growth mindset and say, "I have the capacity to change and make reasoned decisions" so that we keep Buzzfeed to a sometimes snack. I still believe in us.
What do you think? What should Facebook *have* to do? What should it *want* to do? I appreciate everyone's thoughts.

GQ Endorses: The New White Suit
Don't treat the white suit like some dainty costume. Split it in two, dress it down, get it dirty—and know which style icons to emulate

This is a project I did a couple of years back for a business friend of mine to automatically log all his phone calls into his computer. The hardware (pictured above) uses an microprocessor to monitor the phone calls (incoming and outgoing) and send the data out the serial port to be read by the computer.
The hardware is controlled by an Atmel AVR ATmega32 microprocessor. The processor uses optoisolators to see if the phone is off-hook and to check if the incoming line is ringing. If the phone is off-hook a DTMF decoding chip CM8870CP is used to decode the number that is dialed. If it is an incoming call an FSK decoding chip XR2211 is used to decode the Caller ID data.

For the second year in a row we decided to announce our new products at Maker Faire in NYC.
Tomorrow morning, if you come to the Arduino tent, you will be able to see:
Arduino 1.0, we finally froze the Arduino API, the IDE and the layout of the boards. We've made some minor additions to the Arduino connectors to make them more flexible. Tomorrow you will be able to download the release candidate and in 1 month of frantic testing with the community, the platform will be ready and stable.
Arduino Leonardo, a low cost Arduino board with the Atmega32u4. It has the same shape and connectors as the UNO but it has a simpler circuit. On the software side it has a nifty USB driver able to simulate a mouse , a keyboard, a serial port (with more drivers coming later). As usual for Arduino, everything will be released as open source (Core, Bootloader, Hardware).
Arduino Due, a major breakthrough for Arduino because we're launching an Arduino board with a 32bit Cortex-M3 ARM processor on it. We're using the SAM3U processor from ATMEL running at 96MHz with 256Kb of Flash, 50Kb of Sram, 5 SPI buses, 2 I2C interfaces, 5 UARTS, 16 Analog Inputs at 12Bit resolution and much more.
Instead of just releasing the finished platform we are opening the process to the community early on. We're going to be demoing the board and giving away some boards to a selected group of developers who will be invited to shape the platform while it's been created. After Maker Faire, we will begin selling a small batch of Developer Edition boards on the Arduino store (store.arduino,cc) for members of the community who want to be join the development effort. We plan a final and tested release by the end of 2011
Arduino Wifi Shield. It adds Wi-Fi communication capabilities to any Arduino. Instead of using any of the classic WiFi modules on the market we wanted to have something that will provide the maximum level of hackability to the user. The shield is based on a wifi micro module made by H&D Wireless coupled with a powerful AVR32 processor that carries the full TCP-IP stack leaving room to add your own protocols and customisations. We've also worked hard to make sure that you will be able to migrate your code from the Ethernet Shield with minor changes.
We're also going to show some prototypes of new platforms we've been working on: We have robots, new IDEs and more.
It has been a crazy few months and we want to thank ATMEL very much the support that we got on all the new products.
Come over to Maker Faire and have a look for yourself!

About two months ago, Atmel announced a smart new set of AVR development boards, the XPlained series. One of these boards (which I've just recently purchased for $30) boasts a shiny new AVR XMega microcontroller. What? An XMega you say? Why yes, haven't you heard? Come now, they've been around for fully three years at this point. Well, don't worry if this is fresh news, you're not alone. For some reason, adoption of the powerful new XMega MCU has been slow amongst hobbyists.

I developed a nifty way to send data from any microcontroller to any PC running any operating system with zero components and hardware you probably already have sitting in front of you. Traditional interface methods (namely serial port and usb port, both have been referenced on Electronics-Lab) have drawbacks. For serial, you need a level converter IC (like a max232) and an archaic PC with a serial port, or a USB serial port adapter (many of which don't run on Linux or newer versions of windows), and a crystal specifically chosen for transfer at a certain bit rate. FTDI makes a series of USB/serial interfaces, but they're expensive and SMT only I don't feel like paying even more for a breakout board just to communicate with a $1 microcontroller. Also, many ATMEL chips (most of the ATTiny series) don't have rs232 capability built in, so you have to bit bang it in software (not fun). USB is another option, but requires a crystal and some level conversion circuitry, and isn't supported by most small/cheap ATMEL chips. It's built in some simple PICs (like some of the 18F series) but I don't want to switch architecture just to send a few bytes to a PC! The V-USB project helps ATMEL chips bit-bang the USB protocol, and I've gotten it to work, but it's not easy (their hello world program is hundreds of lines of code), and you have to mess with writing USB drivers or interfacing pre-made USB drivers with OS-specific solutions, it's not fun either.
I've long wished there were an easier way! In this post, I demonstrate a simple way to send data from a microcontroller to a PC (and a more advanced second example showing bidirectional communication) using PC a sound card! Although the one built in most PCs would work, I decided to do it with $1.30 sound cards that are all over eBay. The chip sends pulses of data to the PC and a Python script (which can be run on virtually any OS) listens to the sound card with the pyAudio library and waits for data. When it's received, it measures distances between pulses and dumps data values to the screen (optionally logging them to a CSV file ready for graphing by Excel or some other program). A series of calibration pulses precede the data stream allowing the PC to adapt to incoming data at any speed (no specific clock speed or crystal is required).
Although it's not a refined method suitable for consumer applications, it sure is a useful hack for anyone looking to quickly exchange data between a microcontroller and a PC!

Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) is a technique widely used in modern switching circuit to control the amount of power given to the electrical device. This method simply switches ON and OFF the power supplied to the electrical device rapidly. The average amount of energy received by the electrical device is corresponding to the ON and OFF period (duty cycle); therefore by varying the ON period i.e. longer or shorter, we could easily control the amount of energy received by the electrical device. The Light Emitting Diode (LED) will respond to this pulse by dimming or brighten its light while the electrical motor will respond to this pulse by turning its rotor slow or fast.

Sometimes we need to extend or add more I/O ports to our microcontroller based project. Because usually we only have a limited I/O port left than the logical choice is to use the serial data transfer method; which usually only requires from one up to four ports for doing the data transfer. Currently there are few types of modern embedded system serial data transfer interface widely supported by most of the chip's manufactures such as I2C (read as I square C), SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface), 1-Wire (One Wire), Controller Area Network (CAN), USB (Universal Serial Bus) and the RS-232 families (RS-423, RS-422 and RS-485). The last three interface types is used for long connection between the microcontroller and the devices, up to 1200 meters for the RS-485 specification, while the first three is used for short range connection.
