This past week was the City of Palo Alto Employee Appreciation Picnic - a picnic at Mitchell Park.
No City Management (city manager or assistant city manger) attended. No service awards were given. What is the regard to employees by the City of Palo Alto citizens, city management, and city council for it's employees? What role does the Human Relations Committee play in this blatant disregard for the contribution and participation of employees for the community of the City of Palo Alto?
How are these employees and families regarded by the community?
What is the overall responsibility of us all for community and quality of life?

Linux 2.2 and the Frame-Buffer Console
Linux is a fascinating and fast-paced beast. It seems like only yesterday the hardy developers of the Linux kernel were busily putting the finishing touches on ELF support, loadable modules and SMP (Symmetric Multiple Processing)--things we take for granted today. In those days, more time was spent on the critical hurdles, the ones that would turn Linux into the great server platform it is today. In today's Linux world, more time is spent on the less critical components of the system: new file systems, television and radio cards and parallel-port drives. I feel the increased interest in the operating system by the world's corporations will make even more "non-critical" hardware be supported in the future.
Linux 2.2 is a milestone for Linux's development. No longer is Linux a niche operating system—it is a viable solution for the masses. With support for so many new options, it's no wonder.
Text-mode, Linux's most basic output method, is also one area where Linux has changed little since the "old" days. The text-mode console of Linux 2.0 is pure in its simplicity with one obvious (and maybe striking) fact: no code for graphical primitives is in the kernel. The lowest level interface to the text-mode kernel is as simple as the file stream. Higher level functions, such as would be required for full-screen text console applications (Pine, etc.), are done through a superset of the vt100 terminal protocol. Libraries, such as ncurses, are built on top of this to simplify programming and to provide a sort of terminal abstraction. Applications written for Linux's text-mode console using this abstraction can run on just about any terminal. Scroll back and Linux's famous virtual consoles are not a sophisticated extension of those basic building blocks, but rather an extension provided because of the text-mode driver's close relationship to the VGA hardware on which it was designed.
Other utilities exist, such as SVGATextMode, which allow us to access some of the graphical capabilities of hardware in text mode. These utilities generally allow one to change text resolution, fonts and colors. However, these extensions directly interface VGA features and do not call on any extensions in the kernel. Generally, the Linux console is so modular in design that it does not notice the low-level VGA feature changes. These utilities should not be confused with SVGALib or the frame-buffer console, as they allow manipulation only within the hardware's text modes.
There is obviously quite a bit more to modern hardware than simple text modes. As mentioned before, kernel hooks are not provided for accessing these functions, but many user-space programs and libraries are available that bypass the kernel altogether to access the hardware beneath. ("User space" is a term used to describe the limited and protected "space" in which user programs run. In contrast, "kernel space" routines are generally unprotected and can cause crashes and other problems. User protections can be removed in order to allow user programs to access hardware.) Unfortunately for SVGALib, the most popular alternative, the support API provided is heavily tied to the features of the VGA hardware, making it difficult to port either the SVGA library or the end application to any other type of hardware. The other downside is that this library does not support all VGA hardware at its full potential, but that can be forgiven due to the turbulent nature of hardware design. Limitations aside, SVGALib has proven to be a stable and popular solution to the console problem and is the primary interface used in Quake and other games.
The final and most popular option for accessing the video hardware under Linux is through the X Window System, the most common GUI subsystem for UNIX. The X Window System includes an "X Server" which is similar in purpose to a Windows-style video driver. In addition to "driver" features, the X server includes code for running programs over a network and handling many GUI tasks internally. In this respect, the "driver" portion is not truly separate from the "server" portion. A program that wishes to access the video hardware would do so by communicating with the X server through its API.
The first and most obvious disadvantage of this approach is that it would be difficult, if not impossible, on some setups to run a "console" (full-screen) application via this method. Second, because of the combined driver/server features of the X system, servers tend to be very large, making it difficult to allow programs to run in low-memory situations. The third disadvantage of this approach is that it is fairly common for companies to profit by selling closed-source X servers for new hardware. However, the primary advantage of this system, having a long-standing and cross-platform pillar to base graphical applications on, seems to outweigh the negatives.

It doesn't matter how large or small an organization is, or even whether it's historically slow moving or risk averse — there are ways to adopt DevOps sanely, and get measurable results in just weeks.

Coke proposes Chinese model to its bottlers
September 7, 2010
Ratna Bhushan , ET Bureau
NEW DELHI: Beverage maker Coca-Cola has asked its independent franchisee bottlers in India to weigh a new distribution and manufacturing model it follows in China , said two officials in direct knowledge of the development. The new model involves pooling investments and setting up common manufacturing capacities, and would mainly be for non-carbonated drinks. Coca-Cola's bottling arm, Hindustan Coca-Cola Beverages (HCCB), is not expected to invest in the shared-bottling model and will continue to operate independently.

Ratna Bhushan , ET Bureau
NEW DELHI: Big ticket endorsement deals, which had slowed down over the past eight to 10 months with brands tightening the purse strings because of an uncertain economic scenario, are making a comeback. The renewed clamour - primarily for tinsel town celebrities - talent management firms say is being fuelled by newer categories like online portals, search services and even smaller brands. "Brands are spending more on marketing now, perhaps between 20 and 40% more than they were at the beginning of the year...

Mayur Shekhar Jha & Deepshikha Monga , TNN
NEW DELHI: The cola majors are back with their marketing blitzkrieg. The pesti-cola controversy behind them, expect some more action from Pepsi and Coke- new launches, ad campaigns, the works. This time round, a lot of it will also involve non-cola beverages- juices, energy drinks, tea and coffee. Pepsi is learnt to be planning to launch its Tropicana Twister, a move industry sources say the company has been planning for a long time. The company is also expected to give a further marketing push to its Slice brand.
Coke kicks off 3A strategy to hike share

HYDERABAD: In a bid to complete its unfinished agenda from last year, Coca-Cola India has kicked off the 3A approach to garner greater market share during the current year by increasing the affordability, availability and acceptability of Coke products in the country. The company in April brought down price barriers for several products by introducing affordable packaging, like 600 ml PET bottles for all its four mainline products at Rs 15 each, and Maaza in tetra packs at Rs 5 each.
Coca-Cola strapping up to get back fizz
August 31, 2003
HYDERABAD: IT is back to business," says Sanjeev Gupta, president of beverages giant Coco-Cola India, barely a month after the pesticide controversy hit the cola majors in the country. Getting over the flak it has received in the wake of the test results announced by the Centre for Environment and Science (CSE), Gupta is preparing the company for the coming festive season. Apart from kicking off a new advertising campaign next week to usher in the festive period, Coke will also be finalising its business plans for the current and next years next month, Gupta told The ET. "We had noticed some level of de-stocking in the market following the pesticide controversy but now we see sales coming back as we continue to get the clean chits from test results conducted by various state governments as also the positive verdict from the Bombay High Court," he said.

February 13, 2003
NEW DELHI: Coca-Cola India on Thursday announced 23 per cent growth in carbonated soft drinks sales volume for the 12 months ended December 31, 2002. "Our marketing has connected powerfully with consumers through a number of fresh measures taken during the year. The rural initiatives for CSD, driving affordability through lower price points and strengthening distribution to make our products available in new markets proved to be a great success substantially expanding our consumer base," Coca-Cola India president Alex von Behr said in a statement here.
Coke ups concentrate prices
June 16, 2008
Ratna Bhushan , ET Bureau
NEW DELHI: Soft drink major Coca-Cola has hiked the prices of concentrates?the main ingredient in soft drinks?by a steep 10-15% on an all-India basis for most of its brands. While the move has begun hurting its bottling partners, which are already operating under pressure, Coca-Cola has no immediate plans of hiking the retail prices of its products. For Coca-Cola's bottlers, the hike in concentrate prices could not have come in a worse season. In addition to all-time high raw material and packaging costs and the recent fuel price hike, this season is witnessing a slump in sales in the North and Delhi-NCR region because of unseasonal rains.
Coke plans R&D centre in India
August 23, 2007
NEW DELHI: Increasing its focus on localising its portfolio of beverages, Coca-Cola is planning to set up an R&D facility in India, the first for the soft drink major in the country. The facility will focus on non-carbs and flavours. Till now, Coca-Cola India has been outsourcing all R&D functions from its facility in Shanghai. When contacted, a Coke spokesperson said, "The concept of launching an R&D centre for beverages in India by Coca-Cola is being discussed.

Debutantes return with good shows
June 11, 2008
ET Bureau
Every year, in the run-up to the Most Trusted Brands survey , brands that have been languishing at the bottom of the power list ? those that show no signs of rising up the ranks, even within their respective categories ? are retired, and place is made for new brands that have the potential of making an impact on the rankings. This year, 41 new brands were introduced into the list that was administered to respondents, and surprisingly enough, seven of these have managed breaking into the overall Top 100 list: Maaza at No 50, Dabur Amla at No 59, Vatika at No 72, Hajmola at No 74, Boroplus at No 87, TVS Scooty at No 88 and Sonata watches at No 96.

Actor Stephen Amell, who plays Oliver Queen on the hit CW series Arrow, is definitely a convention favorite. A passionate fan himself, during his NerdHQ panel in San Diego, he was charming and engaging, paying special attention to fans who were dressed in costume and even breaking into song.
During the conversation, Stephen Amell talked about David Ramsey's salmon ladder video, who he most enjoyed working with on the Legends of Tomorrow promo, working with The Flash star Grant Gustin, what he most enjoys about the Oliver-Felicity relationship, how Oliver and Diggle might react to Supergirl, his desire to do a giant DC Super Friends cross-over, what a cross-over with the Winchester brothers from Supernatural might look like, deleted dream sequences, the toughest death scene to shoot, the most challenging stunt he's had to do, and what he might be doing with the WWE. Here are the highlights of the chat.
Oliver Queen's masked alter ego is upgrading his look for season four of CW's superhero series "Arrow."
The new look was debuted by series star Stephen Amell on Saturday at the Comic-Con event Warner Bros. Television Presents A Night of DC Entertainment. It's meant to be an upgrade to the crime fighter's trademark leather, hooded vigilante gear that was originally designed by Colleen Atwood.
This version comes from the show's resident costume designer, Maya Mani, who also created the suits for show supes Arsenal (Colton Haynes), Black Canary (Katie Cassidy), Speedy (Willa Holland) and Ray Palmer's A.T.O.M. (Brandon Routh).
The new duds weren't the only things the "Arrow" crew had in store for fans. They also released a recap of season three to was set to remind viewers that a lot has happened in and around Starling City. But now that Oliver has taken down Ra's al Ghul (Matt Nable) and he was seen riding off into the sunset with Felicity Smoak (Emily Bett Rickards), is everything good with Team Arrow?
Fans will have to wait a few months to find out. "Arrow" returns for its fourth season at 8 p.m. October 7 on CW.
Source: http://variety.com
When Arrow fans last saw Oliver Queen he was making his way out of town, leaving friends and family behind in Starling City as he hit the road with Felicity. Where will Season 4 find Oliver and Felicity when the superhero drama returns in the fall to the CW? Stephen Amell offered up a few cryptic hints and teases about Olicity and what's ahead to The TV Junkies.
"Well they've been away," jokes Amell about where we pick up with the couple in the premiere. "They are away and I believe they are still away when we get going again," he says. Does this mean that Season 4 may actually give Olicity a shot at being happy together? "Well you never know, but I think if anyone has a decent chance it's Oliver and Felicity. Time will tell," Amell teases.
As previously confirmed by Amell in one of his Facebook chats, the action will pick up several months later which is something he says shouldn't really be looked at as anything out of the ordinary for Arrow. "When I said there was a time jump people were like, 'Oh my God really?' I didn't think that was very spoilery because the show has always followed chronologically when we air. Whenever we've taken a break and go off the air from May til October, when we leave it's May and when we come back it's October," he explains.
Having gotten his hands on the first few scripts of Season 4, Amell did say that "it still feels like our show but there are different elements that I think people are going to enjoy." One of the early highlights for him has been that "we get to see some characters interact that weren't always the closest of friends or interacting on a regular basis which is neat when you're doing new stuff in the fourth season of a show."
Would that new stuff ever including a spot in the director's chair for Amell? "I am actually interested in directing and I've been asked a couple of times if I'd be interested in directing an episode of Arrow by Greg Berlanti," he tells us. However, the actor has some concerns about stepping behind the camera. "I would like to do it eventually, but to direct an episode of Arrow I think would be a nod towards my own vanity a little bit. It's not just the fact that I'm in most episodes, but it's the fact that there's a prep period before where I'd be shooting and there's cutting the episode on the B-side where I'd also be shooting. I just don't think it's the most practical instance." he explains
Unless Oliver decides to take a sabbatical in the near future and go away for a few weeks directing doesn't seem in Amell's plans for the near future. "There were a couple of episodes last year where I could have done it, but I'll tell you, if I ever have an episode where I'm not shooting 7 out of the 8 days I use that time to regenerate," he says.

Wednesday's Arrow finale ended with Oliver (Stephen Amell) and Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) getting something more elusive than anything else on the show: a happy ending. But what exactly do retired superheroes do?
"What I think is so interesting is that once you help people and have served justice for so long, is that it might become an addiction to a certain extent," Bett Rickards tells TVGuide.com. "It's one thing to go and be happy and sit on an island, but you want to still be doing important work. So I don't know what that's going to be for them. They're going to have a balance of that and hopefully in their relationship as well."
Shortly before running off together, Oliver and Felicity weren't exactly on the best of terms. She was (very rightfully) pissed at him for marrying Nyssa and – more importantly – for his attempted suicide mission. But while Felicity is finally able to convince Oli to break free from the prison he's built around himself and actually live his life, that doesn't guarantee Olicity will succeed as a couple.
Who road off into the sunset and who didn't make it out alive?
[Warning: Spoilers ahead for Wednesday's Arrow season three finale, "My Name is Oliver Queen."]
"How can the show go on?"
That's the question executive producer Marc Guggenheim promised fans would be asking once the credits rolled on season three of Arrow — and he wasn't kidding. Oliver (Stephen Amell) road off into the sunset with Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) after killing Ra's al Ghul (Matt Nable), abandoning his superhero identity and leaving team Arrow scattered to the wind in Wednesday's season finale.
Going into the finale, the series had already dismantled many of the things it depended upon. Sara (Caity Lotz) died and Roy (Colton Haynes) left the show after faking his own death to protect Oliver. But there was more to sacrifice in the finale.
"City's under attack? Must be May." (Quentin Lance)
It's an Arrow season finale, which means the fate of Starling City hangs in the balance. Like the season it is concluding, "My Name is Oliver Queen" is an uneven episode with many thrilling and strong moments. Arrow makes very little effort trying to hide the fact that stopping Ra's al Ghul from destroying Starling City is secondary to its other goals: bringing Oliver's personal journey to a close and dealing with Olicity. There's a lot to talk about, so let's just dive in.
As Ra's, Oliver, Nyssa, and the rest of the League are making their way to Starling City for the newlyweds' mass murder themed honeymoon, the rest of Team Arrow regains consciousness in the dungeon. Malcolm reveals that one of Oliver's associates used Oliver's blood to manufacture a vaccine for the virus, and Malcolm administered it to all of them subcutaneously. He's expecting a thank you for saving their lives, but is left very disappointed. Felicity points out one flaw in the plan: their still trapped in the cell.
The CW's "Arrow" kicks off its season three finale with its titular hero (Stephen Amell) in a markedly unheroic place, married to Nyssa al Ghul (Katrina Law) and next in line to succeed her father Ra's (Matt Nable) as the leader of the League of Assassins. Oliver seemingly left his team for dead in a cell in Nanda Parbat and set off for Starling City with Ra's to unleash a deadly virus on the unsuspecting populace — so where does the series go from here? Variety spoke to showrunner Marc Guggenheim about the consequences of Oliver's choices, how the finale ties into The CW's newly announced "DC's Legends of Tomorrow" spinoff, and what we might see from season four.
As Ra's al Ghul (Matt Nable) sets his sights on destroying Starling City in the Arrow finale, Oliver (Stephen Amell) faces the unenviable task of beating the man that nearly killed him. Will everyone come out of the Arrow finale alive? Spoiler alert: Nope! EW turned to executive producer Marc Guggenheim to get the scoop:
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: What can you tell us about the season finale?
MARC GUGGENHEIM: It's really the culmination of everything that we've been doing all year long. There's obviously a fair amount of cliffhangers from the penultimate episode that need to be resolved. There are a lot of legitimate questions that people have, probably starting with, "Does Team Arrow survive?" This is a somewhat different finale than years past because it's got a lot more character going on in it. There are plenty of pyrotechnics and two really huge sequences—one on a plane and another on top of a dam. It's got the production value of years past, but there are a lot more character moments woven throughout here than we've typically done in a finale.
Marc Guggenheim says of the big episode: "We've never ended a season the way we're ending this season, where literally you are going, 'How can the show go on?' "
Is Arrow about to destroy everything it holds dear?
Wednesday's season finale picks up after Oliver (Stephen Amell) left his friends to die in a cell in Ra's al Ghul's (Matt Nable) Nanda Parbat prison. Ra's plans to release a toxin and destroy Starling City, and in order to stop him, Oliver has played along with the plan. Secretly, he's been working with Merlyn (John Barrowman) to put a stop to it.
The season has already dismantled the Arrow lair and seen Sara (Caity Lotz) and Roy (Colton Haynes) exit the series. Though the CW series is coming back for season four, executive producer Marc Guggenheim says the episode has the feel of a series finale and that its conclusion will leave viewers asking, "How can the show go on?"
In a chat with The Hollywood Reporter, Guggenheim weighs in on the finale's big events, The Flash's (Grant Gustin) role in the episode, and how it ties into the upcoming spinoff DC's Legends of Tomorrow.
There's a party here in Nanda Parbat, excitement and a deadly virus are in the air! Yep, Oliver Queen Al Sah-Him is finally getting married, but there's no verdict yet on if it will be the wedding of the century. However, Oliver and Nyssa don't tie the knot until the end of the episode and there's a ton of stuff to explore before we get there.
"This is Your Sword," another strong installment of Arrow, focuses primarily on the scars Team Arrow incurred during their confrontation with Al Sah-Him last week. Some are definitely more scarred than others, and all of those wounds are readily apparent. One of the joys of the back half of Arrow's third season has been seeing how far along Team Arrow has come since the first season, and tonight's episode is definitely a reminder of how essential Arrow's supporting cast is to the show. (Like, we need a reminder though.) As the episode unfolds, "This is Your Sword" reminds of us something Tatsu said to Oliver in "Uprising": "To defeat a man like this Ra's al Ghul, you must be willing not just to die, but to know what you have to sacrifice in order to beat him…It will be whatever you hold most precious."

Book of the Week: Peter Beard's Into the Wild
As Peter Beard celebrates his birthday today, why not lose yourself in his legacy
with the newly reissued Into the Wild, which chronicles his romance with Kenya — all 706 pages worth?
The book documents both the African wilderness and a man's fascination with it, transforming already powerful scenes through the photographer's signature mixed-media manipulation and collage work. The result is both commanding and electrifying: breathtaking (and at times shocking) photographs mixed in with diary entries, ephemera and newspaper clippings, plus a shot of high glamour with appearances by Veruschka, Mick Jagger, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Andy Warhol…

Friday 05 December 1997
Ian Bostridge Sings
Choice: Concert: The Sibelius Cycle, Barbican Hall, London EC1 (0171-638 8891)
Wednesday 26 November 1997
It must be said that when Michael Tilson Thomas took over the LSO in 1988, the orchestra was a shadow of its former great self. Tilson Thomas has since stepped down in favour of his principal guest conductor Sir Colin Davis, but thanks to their work, the LSO now makes a powerful case for being the best band in town. Some of Davis's tempi in the present Sibelius cycle have been on the broad side but there is no denying the thrilling orchestral sound - from the sonorous low strings to the triumphant bloom of the brass playing. Anne-Sophie Mutter joins them tonight (with a repeat tomorrow) for the fiendish Violin Concerto, flanked by the freshness of the Sixth Symphony and the stunning cumulative power of the single- movement Seventh. The cycle closes on Sunday with a rare performance of the early Kullervo Symphony. See you there.

Sunday 27 July 1997
When the curtain comes down it usually means the show is over. But not on the opening night of Glyndebourne's new Le Comte Ory, when the director, Jerome Savary, made it an occasion for the most grotesquely self-satisfied display of exuberant luvvery I've ever writhed through in an opera house. He hugged the cast. He kissed them. He proposed to them on bended knee. He all but cartwheeled round the stage. No, we would not leave - for Savary was having a good time, and wanted us to know it.
CLASSICAL MUSIC Marc-Andre Hamelin QEH, London Richard Goode Wigmore Hall, London
Tuesday 22 April 1997
Sometimes London audiences get better piano recitals than they deserve. At Marc-Andre Hamelin's programme on Friday, only the front half of the Queen Elizabeth Hall was filled. Perhaps the prospect of Charles Ives's "Concord" Sonata and Reger's Variations and Fugue on a theme of Bach was too much for many people. Hamelin almost made light of it. Performing from memory, he played both with a restraint and delicacy, a quiet sense of concentration, that compelled attention and rendered these very different but equally dense works as digestible as they could be.
CLASSICAL MUSIC: Icebreaker; Queen Elizabeth Hall, SBC, London
Wednesday 04 December 1996
As the group's concert at the Queen Elizabeth Hall last Friday made clear, Icebreaker have come a long way since their formation in 1989 to play the works of Louis Andriessen and Diderik Wagenaar. At the time, doubt was shed on the continuing relevance of this Dutch brand of minimalism, raunchier and more dissonant than most American varieties. Seven or so years on, things have changed, of course; some would argue that Andriessen - whose work has become much better known internationally in that time - is more in tune with current concerns than, say, Philip Glass.
Proms: Handel: Semele; Tan Dun: On Taoism, Orchestral Theatre II Royal Albert Hall, London
Friday 09 August 1996
Monday's Prom, a memorable account of the the oratorio Semele given by William Christie and Les Arts Florissants, was the latest fixture in what is surely proving a perfect summer for lovers of Handel's music. Conducting the work at the Lufthansa Baroque Festival some months back, Ivor Bolton chose to stress the score's strands of character development, chiefly in the figure of the scheming Juno. This performance took up the theme, mezzo Kathleen Kuhlmann's goddess vocally not quite right for the role, but full of theatricality. Into the part of Semele herself, a flat-as-cardboard character, soprano Rosemary Joshua poured so much life and feeling that the music was several times interrupted by spontaneous applause, and no wonder: the liquid embellishments to her Act 3 aria "Myself I shall adore" were as fluent as a nightingale.
Live review Amanda Roocroft Wigmore Hall, London
Friday 16 February 1996
Amanda Roocroft has a lot of voice, a sound technique, and a big career. She's a young singer who's been around. The voice sounds lived- in, mature, worldly. Which leads the listener to expect more, much more, than she has to give. In the testing environment of the recital hall, she is far from ready to hold a handful of songs in the palm of her hand and share them with a discerning audience - to draw that audience into her confidence, to identify the defining character of each composer, each song, to offer insight and illumination. Who's to say when, if, she will be. It's that elusive little word - artistry. You can't define it, but you know when you're in the presence of it.

Obituary: Sir Alex Alexander
Wednesday 10 August 1994
ALEX ALEXANDER was a Trustee and a Director of Glyndebourne from the mid-Seventies until the late Eighties, writes Sir George Christie (further to the obituary by Steven J. Berger, 1 August). He did more to change the face of Glyndebourne's fortunes than any other single individual. He was the best fund- raiser in the business - and got his colleagues at Glyndebourne to think in terms of large five-figure sums rather than in four-figure sums.
OPERA / Resonances of Fate: Edward Seckerson feasts on Glyndebourne's Eugene Onegin, the first production purpose-built for the new theatre
Saturday 04 June 1994
AT Glyndebourne, the memory of the old theatre has died as quickly and surely as did its brittle, dried-out orchestral sound. Tchaikovsky's Tatyana can now dream on and on in limpid string phrases which descend all the way to a rich and searching bass line. Fate has resonance at last. The London Philharmonic sounds like the London Philharmonic. Intimacy, bloom, and atmosphere co- exist. And not a note has yet been sung.

Ed Koch's timing failed him, on occasion. The New York mayor was very late reacting to the AIDS crisis and overstayed his welcome in City Hall.
And he died in February, at age 88, just before Neil Barsky's entertaining, image-burnishing documentary appreciation for his career, "Koch," opened.
"How'm I doing?" he asked constituents during his first mayoral campaign, and all through his tenure in office (1978-1989). "Koch" does a pretty good job of answering that question.
Non-New Yorkers won't remember that he was a three-term congressman and a World War II combat vet. And even New Yorkers, with no sense of history, might have forgotten what he did to make the city livable and worth visiting by tourists, two features it had lost by the middle of the '70s.

OH MY GOD. That is all i have to say when it I think of Stacey. This chick is a BRICK HOUSE she is so stacked. Beautiful face, delicious round bubble butt ass, and huge natural round tits. I mean BIG ASS BOOBS. I had to keep wiping my mouth from drooling on myself. I loved the way the oil was just making her chocolate skin look in the sun. After tons of big tit worship went down, we went on inside where Reno was waiting to taste this chocolate bunny.

"What a beautiful retreat destination! The condo is the best in the entire area - easily accessible, comfortable and close to everything. A lovely place to walk, enjoy the pools and easy access to the beach. Our trip was terrific. We explored New Smyrna Beach (loved it!) and did a day trip to NASA visitor center. A cruise on the St. John's River was a great time of dolphin watching. Found some great eating spots, too. We recommend this condo highly.

Step 1: Materials
1. Drill with a drill bit (size depends on the diameter of the marker)
2. Screwdriver to attach the wheels to the servos.
1. (X2) spray paint can caps.
2. (X2) small screws
3. (X3) rubber bands
4. Piece of wood ( size, shape and thickness could be any to fit all the parts)
5. Arduino UNO Rev3
6. Breadboard
7. (9V) battery
8. (9V) connection harness to provide power to the Arduino.
9. (X4) wires for all the connections.
10. A marker ( any color)
11. (X2) Parallax Servos with the 360º MOD
12. 12 pin connector
13. USB cable to prgram the Arduino.
14. Something to add traction to the wheels ( I have use from lego, two rubber tires, but you can use any electrical tape also).
Arduino software (to upload the code)
Step 2: Step 1
The piece of wood I am using is a 2'' wide by 1/4'' of thickness.
You can use whatever you got (plastic, metal or even a good piece of cardboard)
Step 3: Step1 (Bread board)
Step 5: Step 4 (Servos)
Also it is a good practice to write in the back of the base the letters L and R to make the final connections of the servos easy. ;)
Step 6: Step 5 (Wheels)
You don't need to drill a hole here, the plastic is thin for the screws to go through.
Then add the traction to the caps, it could be electrical tape. ( I have use rubber tires from a lego)
Step 7: Step 6 (First Connection)
Notice that I have use a 12 pin connector to connect the servosto the breadboard.
Step 8: Step 7 (Second Connection)
Second: Connect the GND connection from the Arduino to the breadboard.
NOTE: (BreadBoard Basics)
When you make a connection from the Arduino to the breadboard it will provide either power or a Pin function connection to the whole row.
Step 9: Step 8 (Third Connection)
Second: Connect the pin 10 from the Arduino to the breadboard for the Right Servo and that is the white cable connection of the servo
Look at the pictures to have a clear understanding on how the connections go.
Step 10: Step 9 (Fourth Connection)
Make sure the white cable connection on the servo is were the pins to the Arduino are.
Almost done... DOUBLE CHECK THE CONNECTIONS!!! ;)
As you see on the second picture I have run the cables under the Drawbot to make everything clean and organized. ;)
Step 11: Step 11 (Programing)
The code was found on the internet and I have use it and it is working.
AWAYS COMPILE the code before uploading it to the Arduino ;)
* 5 Minute Drawbot.pde
int servoPinL = 9;
int servoPinR = 10;
void setup() {
void loop() {
Step 12: Step 12 (Power)
Watch it making circles, as you can change the markers to make different circles in different colors.
I have use a sharpie but I rather use a washable one in case of an accident.
ENJOY your first ARDUINO BOT ;)
Step 13: Troubleshooting
A. Put some tape arround the marker to make it fit.
2. What else can I use as wheels?
A. There is a lot of stuff to use an example is tupperware tops or lids.
3. The servos wont move.
A. Make sure all the connections are not loose double check them.
A. Also make sure the 9V batterty is new this servos will drain all its power.
4. When connected to the power I have check all connections still servos wont move.
A. Double check that you upload the code to the Arduino, and when connected to the power you don't see servos move a little
it means that there is no code running in the Arduino.
When the power is connected if you dont see any light on the Arduino that means the battery does not have any power.
Any help needed let me know I will be glad to help all of you.
cheap cheap cheap arduino parts...
The code was from the arduino web site
Great, thanks!
umm!!! interesting I will try something like that
You can also find connectors with built in switches and hard cases.
2. And this picture will help you see the connector to provide power to the arduino.
3. And here is were you connect the 9V battery to the Arduino.

Philadelphia 3 at New Jersey 0
Bryzgalov saves 20 as Flyers blank DevilsSaturday, Oct 8, 2011
NEWARK, N.J. (AP)—The new-look Philadelphia Flyers have started the season with a pair of solid victories on the road.
They hope the momentum continues Wednesday for the home opener against the Vancouver Canucks.
Ilya Bryzgalov(notes), the former All-Star brought to Philadelphia to cure one of the league's shakiest goaltending situations, made 20 saves as the Flyers spoiled New Jersey Devils season opener with a 3-0 victory on Saturday night.
The Flyers launched the season on Thursday with a 2-1 win over the defending Stanley Cup champion Bruins in Boston. Philadelphia improved to 2-0 with the victory at the Prudential Center.
"I can't say enough about the whole team work ethic," Bryzgalov said. "Everybody's doing their part. It's been amazing."
Claude Giroux(notes), Matt Read(notes) and Wayne Simmonds(notes) provided the goals to support Bryzgalov, among the Flyers' major offseason signings. It was his 24th career shutout and improved his record against New Jersey to 2-1-0.
The Flyers win spoiled Peter DeBoer's debut as Devils coach.
"Obviously, it's not the way you drew it up," DeBoer said. "It looked to me like we were at practice speed and they were at NHL game speed. Our reaction time never caught up to where there's was tonight."
Martin Brodeur(notes) made 26 saves as one of the lone bright spots for New Jersey.
Giroux, scoring for the second time in as many games, gave the Flyers the lead at 12:05 of the first period with a shot from the right hash mark following a backhand pass by James van Riemsdyk(notes) from the corner.
The Flyers almost got a second goal in the closing seconds of the period when Andreas Nodl(notes) had a short-handed breakaway, only be denied by Brodeur's glove save.
Philadelphia continued to have the better chances in the scoreless second period. Brodeur made a pad save on Sean Couturier(notes) to deny a 2-on-0 break, and later came up big on a close-in bid by van Riemsdyk.
The Devils generated pressure in the closing seconds as Petr Sykora(notes) put a sharp-angled shot on Bryzgalov.
Read got his first NHL goal at 2:41 of the third to put the Flyers up 2-0. Taking a centering feed from Scott Hartnell(notes), Read beat fired a shot from the slot that glanced off Brodeur's shoulder on it's way into the net.
"There's definitely a lot of new faces in this locker room, and I'm one of them," Read said. "Sometimes, it can get you nervous. But there are so many guys in here, who have done it, and they can make you relax and just have fun."
Only six seconds later, Patrik Elias(notes) was whistled for tripping and Devils managed to kill off the penalty.
By then the momentum had swung decisively in the Flyers favor. Simmonds fought his way to the crease to poke a shot past Brodeur at 4:50, giving the Flyers a 3-0 lead.
Then it became a matter of preserving Bryzgalov's first shutout as a Flyer.
"Sometimes you get lucky, and sometimes, you have to work extra hard," Bryzgalov said. "Tonight, the Devils had some good chances, for sure."
Bryzgalov is just one of a number of new Flyers looking forward to their home-ice debuts on Wednesday.
"Can't wait," said Jaromir Jagr(notes), who signed with Philadelphia after three seasons in the KHL. "It's very good to go back home with two wins, with the team playing well. Good team coming in to play us, and it should be fun."
While the Flyers relish their fast start, the Devils know they have to play better avoid a repeat of last year's slow start that doomed their playoff chances.
"We played a really good team," said Zach Parise(notes) following his first game as Devils captain. "That's going to be one of the better teams in the Eastern Conference. We're going to have to elevate our game. They have a really good defense. With us not generating much, we sometimes helped them. We turned pucks over. We have to have a little more patience. You could definitely tell they had played one game and we hadn't."
NOTES: Brodeur made a 17th straight opening-night start for the Devils. … The New Jersey scratches were D Mark Fraser(notes), C Rod Pelley(notes) and RW Cam Janssen(notes)…The Philadelphia scratches were D Matt Walker(notes) and LW Jody Shelley(notes). … Philadelphia was 0-for-8 on the power play; the Devils went 0-for-5.

Virtually Unabraded Gem 1915 Eagle
1915 $10 MS65 NGC. CAC. This Gem 1915 eagle is certified in
an old-style NGC "no-line fatty" holder, eagerly pursued by some
collectors. The coin is a rich, lustrous golden-yellow with deeper
amber accents on the lower obverse and only a single mentionable
mark running diagonally on Liberty's cheek. A small, inoffensive
area of copper alloy on the reverse detracts not a whit from the
strong eye appeal. The 1915 was the last Philadelphia Mint eagle
