I'll let you know in a week or two. That was my experience. I was induced for two days. I plan on vbacing my do for will induce 10 days after my due date and I'm due in 5 days. I have posted this question on the vbac board and there are a lot of plus size women that have went on to have successful vbacs.

VBAC is definitely possible and is better fir you and baby than a repeat c section. Join ICAN
For information and how to best go about it. The biggest factor is going to be who your provider is and what facility they practice at.

Yes...my first born on the day of my scheduled induction my water broke, but 27 hours later, after dilating the full 10 and pushing for over an hour he still wouldn't come out (he was a big baby) so I had an emergency c-section. My second son I had a vbac and was in labor for 8 hours, everything went great (btw I was 302 when I went into labor with my 1st and 317 when I went into labor with my 2nd) I'm currently 290, almost 38 weeks pregnant with my third and hope to have a 2nd vbac...good luck

The season's final mow can be slightly shorter, up to a half inch, than the regular lawn mowing height, according to turf experts at Michigan State University.
When mowing is completed, wrap up other late fall yard projects.
Install tree guards or wire mesh cages around the trunks of smooth-barked trees and shrubs to protect them from rodent damage this winter. The guard's top should be higher than the maximum expected snow depth. Bury the bottom a few inches deep into the soil.
Remove annual flowering plants as they succumb to frost. Those that remained healthy this season can be added to the compost pile.
Cut off and discard, rather than compost, leaves from peonies, bearded irises, hollyhocks, monarda, phlox and other plants prone to pests and disease.
Established trees or shrubs that didn't perform as well as usual this year may benefit from fertilizer applied after the leaves drop.

Where can I find the clips that secure the digitizer?
I have done the ultimate sin! I have broke the clips that hold the digitizer ribbon into the logic board.
Now the digitizer will not pick up touch!
The only thing I can do is try to replace the plastic clip that is on the connector.
i have done a massive search of google and cannot find the part without buying a complete logic board. Anyone have a source for these???
I may need more than two because I broke the other one trying to learn how to remove and reinstall!
Is this a good question?
I'm sorry to say that I can't really help - since I have the same problem. Did you ever find a solution that works?

The London Development Agency is looking for a new Chief Executive. They dangle a 'significant six figure salary' in front of prospective applicants and demand 'truly exceptional leadership credentials gained in a complex, dynamic environment'.
The Times, however, claims that the Agency will in fact seek 'an entire new board when the members' four-year term expires at the end of this month', including a chairman who must be from the world of business'. Such a reshuffle would, of course, signal the final purge of all things Livingstone.
Is anyone jobseeking?

Mayors Design Awards nominations open
Mayor Tom Barrett has spent a lot of time in recent weeks talking about culture, placemaking and design. Envigorated, perhaps, by Bloomberg's Mayors Challenge, he spent the first several minutes of his State of the City address talking about art and placemaking. He also spent the better part of a day showcasing artists and arts venues to celebrate the city's recent designation as a top "art place" in the nation.
Now, the mayor is taking nominations for the annual Mayor's Design Awards, which showcases projects that contribute to the urban landscape and neighborhoods through restoration, construction or enhancement projects. The mayor's office is accepting nominations for the Design Awards through March 22. »Read Full Blog Post

I'm still working on finding a name I love, but Violet is always up there. If we decide to go with Violet I don't like it with our middle name choice, Caroline. If we named her Caroline Violet, which I like the sound of better, could she still be called Violet?
Calling by the middle name
As an adult who goes by her middle name - it is a royal pain! I made very sure my children were going to be called by their first names. Violet Caroline is a lovely name.
I like Violet Caroline and just go by the first name! It will save her many headaches!!
Passionate about working from home!
Passionate about homeschooling!
Passionate about staying FIT!
Legal documents, taxes, voting, etc are all a hassle when I have to decide to either (a) pretend I go by my first name or (b) go through the "yeah my middle name is Brooke, so I actually go by that rather than my first name...thing.
And don't even get me started on roll calls at school every friggin year...first day of school x how ever many classes I had...
No, just no. It's such an unnecessary hassle. And Violet Caroline sounds far better flow wise IMO too.
McElliesyn is not a name precioussss...
Brooke aka "The One" mom to 4 hobbitses:
American Mom to 2 Foreign Exchange Students "G" and "G!"
I wouldn't do it. Everyone I know who goes by their middle name thinks it's a hassle. My DH goes by his middle name among his family (per his parents' preference, which they chose to do for reasons similar to yours), and he hated it so much that he started going by his first name. Yet his family still calls him by his middle name. Double confusing. ;)
I think Violet Caroline is pretty. I don't think it's any less flowy than Caroline Violet.
Gisele is my daughter's middle name. We all go by middle names on my side of the family b/c we're all named after each other. I'm named after my mom with the first name and my sister & brother are named after my dad with their first name. Gisele's named after her dad with her first name. So we go by middle names to reduce confusion as to who we're talking to lol.
BTW: I go by my first name in a professional setting (made that decision in the first grade when school was my "professional setting") and I go by my middle name in family setting. For the longest time people thought my middle name, which is what my mom calls me regardless of what setting we're in, was my nick name. lol
And I like the way both arrangements sound.
I'm so V.I.P. with my baby girl Gisele (12/6/11)!
I like Caroline Violet. It's a very pretty name!
My cousin's name is Caroline Daisy and honestly she uses both names about equally, that way in formal settings it's not frustrating to her to hear Caroline, but a lot of relatives call her Daisy.
My husband and I are thinking of naming the baby Benjamin Matthew but calling him Matthew because Matthew Benjamin doesn't flow right.
A boy and a girl, can't wait to find out the third :-)
My husband, his mother and grandfather are all people who went by their middle names. It is an unnecessary hassle. No one knows why my husband's mother gave him a first name that is a) blech and b) she never intended to use. Now it's just awkward when we constantly have to correct/explain it. The most annoying environment is medical things. Our son is having open heart surgery so we've met a much of new doctors and offices. They all call him Blech (for example) because that's what we put on the insurance forms.
His mother legally dropped her unused Blechy first name when she changed to her maiden name. His grandfather never wanted to hear his (he thought "girly") first name uttered. Ever.
WAHM to red head DS "Spaghettio" 9/10
My husband has always gone by his middle name. My thesis advisor in grad school did too. We named my son for his dad but call him by his middle name. I don't think it's that big a deal, it was actually my husband's idea to call our son by his middle name after he went through the same thing, so there's a different perspective for you.

Deputies remove distraught woman from Foresthill Bridge
By: Gus Thomson, Journal Staff Writer
Placer County sheriff's deputies answered a call for help on the Foresthill Bridge and prevented a distraught woman from a possible suicide jump today. Sheriff's dispatch received a call to alert emergency personnel that a distraught woman in her 20s was on the bridge, Sgt. Kurt Walker said. Deputies spotted her crouched on the walkway on the north side of the bridge shortly before noon. They were able to approach her and detain her without incident. The woman was taken into custody for a psychiatric evaluation. The 730-foot-high bridge just east of the Foresthill exit has been the scene of nearly 50 deaths from falls and jumps over its 36-year history. Foresthill Road traffic was stopped temporarily at the bridge during the emergency but had resumed shortly after noon.

The main stylesheet file (style.css) should not be edited. Instead, place custom css in a custom.css file in your theme folder
Shaken Grid is built on HTML5, CSS3, and a little bit of jQuery. The grid structure is controlled by the jQuery Isotope plugin. The main stylesheet file (style.css) should not be edited. If you have CSS customizations to make, add them to custom.css in the theme folder. These styles will overwrite the main stylesheet (and all other stylesheets). When updating your website, be sure not to overwrite your custom.css file.

Granted I did a lot of walking today, but regardless lately I have been feeling very hungry late at night and I am really always thirsty-- always drinking (mostly water) and thus always peeing :)-- am sure many of you can relate!
Any night owls out there (or even otherwise) who get hungry later at night-- I find especially between 9:30 or so and even up until midnight sometimes I just feel so hungry, even if I ate dinner at 7:30! I also try to eat smaller quantities throughout the day-- fruits, granola, etc etc to space it out, but just so hungry (& thirsty!) I think the hungry/thirsty (and of course the peeing) keep me up
I am now 25 weeks!! :) I feel baby kicking early in the a.m. sometimes too and I think maybe he is hungry

Developers of the post-apocalyptic massively multiplayer online game (MMO), Fallen Earth, today announced a partnership with Nuclear Blast Records the world's largest independent heavy-metal record label. With plans to incorporate several of the label's popular tracks into the game, developers have alerted players that life in the wasteland is about to get a little more metal.
In the next month, developers plan to uncover a brand new underground bunker bar in game, introducing Nuclear Blast Radio and featuring hit tracks from several of the label's artists including Meshuggah, Soilwork and Testament.
"We listen to so much of Nuclear Blast's music at the office," said Senior Game Designer for Fallen Earth, Marie Croall. "This is an awesome opportunity to share our favorite music with our players."
According to developers, artists and tracks featured on Nuclear Blast Radio will cycle out periodically, offering a new variety for listeners.
Nuclear Blast USA's Label Manager Gerardo Martínez comments on the partnership: "The music and gaming worlds are natural allies. Luckily, we're working with game developers who know quality music. Get ready to hear the sounds of Fallen Earth on tour busses across the country!"
By means of the new partnership, several upcoming promotions and artist Q&A sessions have been planned for Fallen Earth.

reusable grocery bags
Comments (6)
I bought a thick, high quality sheet with a pattern I liked that was bleachable and made a few bags of varying sizes. They worked well, but need internal supports to stand up by themselves. Otherwise, Whole Foods and other places (like medical companies) have bags lined with foil that has bubbles in it to insulate that wash easily and are really inexpensive.
These might be worth looking into: www.getmyeco.com/solutions/
They have four separate bags, each designed for a specific type of grocery (produce, frozen, dry goods, and one for glass products.)
Or try here: shop.truereusablebags.com/shop_now....
Their bags are made in the country and from 100% recycled material. They also have pretty decent prices.
I just checked my Whole Foods bags and they are made in China. Kind of upsets me since I would expect more from that company. Looks like I'll be switching mine over too.
Good luck!
I have a bunch of different kinds. The ones I like the best aren't meant to be grocery bags. They are just the canvass craft bags I've collected over the years . Some were given to me when I was teaching, and others were made (with decals or embroidery) by friends. They wash well, are strong, and last forever.

I upcycled a bunch of my old t-shirts into bags. I came across a tutorial online and went for it. They hold a lot and are very strong. Plus I can wash them and they didn't cost me anything.

During his time in Fresno, Rick Roddam has been a radio personality, a comedian, a program director, an event host, a local advocate and the head of his own clothing line. On Monday, he bids Fresno farewell after 11 years. We couldn't let him leave without one last exit interview — he insists he's done plenty during his time here (that's radio for ya), but was up for one more.
Radio listeners remember Roddam's name from KRZR, Y-101 and The Blaze. Recently, however, he hasn't been able to find a new radio gig, so he's leaving for Denver. But not without his comedy pals sending him off in the best way they could — with a roast Sunday night at Heroes Sports Lounge.
What's so awesome that it's getting you to leave Fresno?
I had a Jules Winnfield style moment of clarity and I've decided to 'wander the earth.'
Tell us a little background on how and when you came to Fresno. Did you think you'd be here this long?
I came to Fresno in 2000 because KRZR offered me a job. I planned on staying here for a few years and then moving on to someplace bigger and better. Little did I know that Fresno sucks you in … and you never really leave.

Aging Hejduk represents 'wild card' on offensive end
Using the newly debuted projection system of Puck Prospectus, VUKOTA, Insider takes the temperature of players on every NHL team, moving deeper into the Northwest Division on Thursday with the Avalanche.
Summer Skate -- Colorado Avalanche
Possibly no team in the league will have lower expectations going into the season than the Colorado Avalanche, who not only finished third-to-last in the league last season but also lost their captain to retirement and traded away their top scorer, Ryan Smyth. The Avalanche will be in full rebuilding mode, looking to see their young players develop in the hopes of becoming a competitive team in a few years.

Anyone know the reason why it's not okay to use this on a 2 month old? My sister told me she put it on my niece's feet and put socks on her when she was under 3 months old.
Is it not safe to put on their chest if they're under 3 months? The description says can be use as needed on babies 3 months and older. I assume that means you have to use it as directed by a pediatrician on babies on under 3 months???
He has wet strong cough and I've sucked out some serious mucus a few times. I'm sick too and mine is allergies so I assume his is too since he has not a fever or any other signs of a cold. I use a humidifer in his room at night. I just thought I'd try the babyrub on his feet like my sister suggested but I was curious as to why I can't use it on his chest.

Currency Outlook: More Euro Bounce?
TheStreet) -- The dollar was mostly weaker vs. the majors Friday, as what started as a classic risk-off day in Asia and Europe turned into a risk-on day as North America opened. With the eurozone being the source of all the market mayhem, and with restructuring risks still present, we do not think that the euro outlook has shifted. Monday's trading will be key: Do markets sell into euro strength or do they bet on a bigger euro bounce? Intervention fears are overblown, in our view, and so once this period of correction/consolidation has run its course, the euro will likely be very vulnerable once again.The pace of weakness may ease a bit, but we cannot make a case for a bullish euro trend anytime soon. Key levels up ahead for the euro/dollar (EUR/USD) are 1.2619 and 1.2731 (50% and 62% retracement levels, respectively, of the big May 10-19 drop). The yen (JPY) was weaker across the board Friday and underperformed the buck. Thus, dollar/yen rose to test 90. Emerging-market foreign exchange was mostly firmer, with the dollar/Brazilian real (USD/BRL) falling after being unable to pierce 1.90. The biggest gainers on the day vs. the dollar were the zloty (PLN), the New Zealand dollar (NZD), the Australian dollar (AUD), the koruna (CZK) and the krona (SEK), while the biggest losers vs. the dollar were the won (KRW), the ringgit (MYR), the Philippine peso (PHP), the baht (THB) and the yen. There were no U.S. data Friday, but it probably wouldn't have mattered much as most economic data have been sidelined by what's going on in Europe. Mexico's central bank kept rates steady at 4.5%, as expected, and voiced concern about the impact of European crisis. U.S. equity markets were higher, recovering from early selling and surging in the last half-hour of trading. The Dow Jones Industrial Average, S&P 500 and Nasdaq ended up 1.25%, 1.5% and 1.1%, respectively. European markets were up, too, with the Euro Stoxx 50 rising 0.2%. Asian equities are likely to open up Monday as Asian ADRs were higher during North American trading Friday. Nikkei futures point to an up open for Japan, and the soft yen should help Japan exporters.NEW YORK (

Arthur Sarnoff (1912 – 2000) was an American painter and illustrator famous for his tasteful pinup girls and humorously humanized hounds that played cards, pool and golf. Becaming an extremely successful freelance illustrator, he was known for his flair for Americana advertisements and cover art for numerous magazines, including the "Saturday Evening Post," "Cosmopolitan," "Good Housekeeping" and "Esquire." Sarnoff created fine art prints, including portraits of President John F. Kennedy, Jackie Kennedy, Bob Hope, Arnold Palmer, and other luminaries. His anthropomorphized dogs were among the best-selling prints of the 1950s and his iconic work was frequently exhibited at museums.

Starring Karl Markovics, August Diehl and David Striesow. Written and directed by Stefan Ruzowitzky. 99 minutes. At the Varsity, Sheppard Grand. 14A
The green triangle overlaying the yellow one on the death camp garb of Salomon Sorowitsch gives pause to automatic feelings of sympathy.
Yellow marks "Sally," played by Karl Markovics, as one of the millions of Jews brutally persecuted during the Nazi Holocaust of World War II. But green further identifies him as a habitual criminal who would have been in prison regardless.
How should we feel now?
This is just one of the moral complications of The Counterfeiters, a drama based on true historical events that leaves no conscience unchallenged. It's the winner of this year's Oscar for Best Foreign-Language Film.
Written and directed by Austria's Stefan Ruzowitzky, who isn't interested in knee-jerk reactions, it's the rare Holocaust drama that blurs the line between light and dark.
The Counterfeiters is Ruzowitzky's retelling of The Devil's Workshop, the wartime memoirs of Adolf Burger, who was a member of Operation Bernhard, a secret Nazi project to bankrupt the economies of the U.S. and Britain. Concentration camp prisoners skilled in the art of currency forging were given special treatment and prolonged lives if they agreed to participate.
The movie is significantly not told from the perspective of the reluctant Burger, who is played with righteous dignity by August Diehl. Ruzowitzky instead wants us to consider the much more troubling complicity of Sally, whom we first meet in a post-war prologue that is heavy with guilt.
Flashback to 1936, and Sally is enjoying the high life in Berlin. A talented artist, he prefers to use his skills making counterfeit cash.
"Why earn money by making art?" he says. "Earning money by making money is much faster."
It's also a fast route to trouble. Sally is arrested by Insp. Herzog (Devid Striesow), the Berlin fraud squad chief who is looking for advancement by collaring a major criminal.
Jump ahead three years and Sally's lot has dramatically worsened: he's interned in the Mauthausen camp in Austria, where even his fellow prisoners are wary of his underworld status.
The resourceful Sally, his face a blank slate, quickly learns how to curry favour with his Nazi tormentors by sketching heroic portraits of them. His sycophancy earns him a reprieve from the worst of the abuses, and also a transfer to the Sachsenhausen camp, where living conditions are superior by concentration camp standards.
He's been selected by his old nemesis Herzog, now an upwardly mobile commandant, to head Operation Bernhard, the counterfeit ring the Nazis hope will flood the Allied economies with ruinous loads of fake currency. The money will be made entirely by prisoners, who will enjoy ample food and clean beds for their services, even as they prolong the war – and indirectly cause many more people to die.
It's a terrible choice, but not one that seems to trouble Sally: "One adapts or dies," he tells a conscience-stricken fellow internee. But not everyone agrees with him. The idealistic Burger, a skilled user of the collotype machine needed to print the fake money, is determined to sabotage Operation Bernhard.
It is here where the film makes its greatest impact, and where the skills of Ruzowitzky and Markovics are most apparent. Neither man is willing to invest Sally with much in the way of redemptive features, no clue to how his attitude might shift. It's a brave choice that makes us consider the possibility that Sally is completely amoral and contemptible. On the other hand, he could be stalling for time, looking for a way out of the situation.
We are also forced to look inwards. What choice would we make, placed in the same circumstances? Would we accept certain punishment and death, to help forestall the uncertain goal of economic devastation? And who would judge us?
There's no such easy relief in The Counterfeiters, which views human nature through the clearest of lenses.

Bank representatives provide opotions, info to servicemember homeowners
August 15, 2011
By Nick Spinelli, Fort Gordon Public Affairs

Mortage Assistance Program
- Memorandum of Commitment
FORT GORDON, Ga. -- (Aug. 5, 2011) With the current state of the economy, many homeowners feel they have a great deal to be concerned about. This can be especially true for homeowners who are also servicemembers. Their biggest concern: what happens to my house if I have to PCS or deploy? Fortunately, there is an Army-wide program (which began on Fort Gordon) designed to assist military homeowners. As part of this program, representatives from Chase Bank were on post Aug. 5 to meet with military personnel and discuss their concerns and options.
"Our military and veteran customers are especially important to us," Steven Charles, associate vice president of the Chase Military Homeownership Center in Norfolk, Va., said. "And it is our commitment to never foreclose on deployed active duty servicemembers. We will help them find a way to keep their home."
Charles was one of three Chase representatives on hand during the presentation. Afterward, they met one-on-one with the servicemembers in attendance.
Chase is one of five mortgage lending companies (also including Bank of America, Citi Bank, USAA and Wells Fargo) that have signed a mortgage assistance program memorandum of commitment for Soldiers and Families alongside the Assistant Secretary of the Army (Installations, Energy and Environment) and Fannie Mae last September (see below). Earlier this year, Chase was outed to the public for charging servicemembers higher interest rates and in some cases, foreclosing. Charles explained how the company made a mistake and is working to correct it by offering even bigger incentives.
"In addition to their recommitment to avoiding foreclosure for deployed active duty servicemembers, Charles said the company has also, "set up a free distance education training program through Syracuse University, donated 1,000 homes to veterans, and is leading a coalition of 10 companies to hire 100,000 veterans within the next decade."
Mary Scott, Fort Gordon housing program director, said she's glad Chase as well as the other major lending companies, are stepping up their efforts to assist servicemembers.
"It all ties in to Fort Gordon's Homeowners Assistance initiative," she said.
Last year, Scott received a Superior Civilian Service Award for her work dedicated to assisting military homeowners.
During the award ceremony, former Fort Gordon garrison commander Col. Glenn Kennedy said, "[her] tremendous efforts are just another example of the hard work that is being done every day to improve the lives of our Soldiers and their Families. Mary Scott's work began as a Fort Gordon initiative but was quickly recognized as being so critical to our Soldiers and Families that it was adopted by ... the Army and resulted in the Army-wide Mortgage Assistance Program."

Education Engineer @ Sparkfun
With over 5 Million units sold in 2014 alone, Chromebooks are a growing trend among schools and homes. One of the biggest drawbacks to Chromebooks has been the inability to connect it to any hardware (i.e. Arduino) -- until now.
Courtesy of Terrence Fagan, Engineering Chair at Central Piedmont Community College. Terrence has done a lot of great work in engineering education and outreach in his community. He had the opportunity to attend the Fab10 Symposium in Barcelona last July. When he started telling me about his experience there, I felt it was a must for a blog post.
This Saturday was the kick-off for the 28th FIRST Robotics Competition. This competition has grown from a couple dozen schools to over 3000 teams internationally. This year, Sparkfun has reached out to help teams in this year's competition.
Last Friday at Skyline High School, rather than taking a traditional final exam, students in the Introduction to Electronics class with Ms. Vadovzski prepared poster presentations of projects that they created during the semester. Each project was required to demonstrate some type of interactivity using an Arduino and traditional electronics.
We often teach beginning learners that the standard 16 MHz Arduino Uno is fast... really fast. 16 MHz means 16 Million cycles per second -- or that translates to 1/16 millionths of a second per cycle. That's a mere 62.5 ns. That's fast. So, is the Arduino _really_ that fast? Let's see...

Back in January, we announced a small contest for teachers and educators using the SparkFun Inventor's Kit in their classes. We wanted to highlight and reward teachers for their hard work and dedication to promoting STEM education in the classroom.
On the third Thursday of every month, the Denver Museum of Nature and Science hosts an evening event for adults in the area called, Science Lounge. Their programming features live entertainment, demonstrations, hands-on demos, and an evening filled with science, education, and exploration! Each month features a different theme. For April, the Science Lounge theme was "Electrify!" What a perfect match for us here at SparkFun!
Our education team is headed to Boston this week for NSTA 2014. Please stop by our booth and see what we've got going!
A simple search on-line for "Arduino resources" results in "About 3,920,000 results (0.30 seconds)," but if you're just starting out and interested in getting Arduino into your classroom - this can be terribly overwhelming. So - here's a list of some of the sites I like to use.

We currently do not have any plans to design / build a Mega version of this shield, but if there is enough interest, we can bring this up in our next new product proposal discussions. Please let us know if this is something you think would benefit you as well as other builders / makers / hackers out there!
Here are the correct pins – at least the ones that I think are relevant:
TB6612FNG Dual H-Bridge DC Motor Driver
XBee Port with HW/SW Serial Switch
The 4 AA batteries are rated at 1500 mAh. In series, this is still 1500 mAh of "energy" to the robot. Your 10,000 mAh power pack will run for considerably longer.
Yes. Thanks! Crouton and ChrUbuntu are both alternative solutions to this – but, if you're in a school, it's unlikely that you're going to dual boot or have students boot into an alternative OS for you classroom projects. I ran the Arduino IDE under ChrUbuntu a while back, and it worked like a charm – installing ChrUbuntu and trying to get teachers / students to do the same seemed like too much. But – yes, there are other solutions to getting a ChromeBook to run Arduino. Booting it into a more fully featured distro of Linux is one of those ways.
Thanks @swarren. Fixed the link.
Has anyone tried using Upverter? It appears to work on my chromebook! Maybe that's the solution for teaching some PCB design in the classroom too?
@jkurleto – Thank you for the feedback. Yes. Chromeduino also works, and it's been around for a while, but it was a little buggy when we tested it – especially for use in a widespread classroom setting. It uses AVRChick (ChromeOS version of AVRdude) – which is pretty slick.
And, if you want to give it a try – there is a beta release of a blockly version of codebender http://blockly.codebender.cc/ – it's still missing some real key features like clone/duplicate, but it's a great demonstration of the two working together.
The original version of the library has a feature that causes the RedBot to stop when it is bumped. This was creating some issues, so this feature was removed, and now the only thing you can do is read the state of the bumper. We apologize for the change in the revision.
Glad to hear the PicoBoard example worked! It's a great additional feature to the DS. To answer your question, the DigitalSandbox can be re-programmed with any standard Arduino Sketch. The original condition generally has something like the Blink example loaded on there. You can find this under File –> Examples –> Basics –> Blink.
If you'd like to see some examples of code that you can try out on your Digital Sandbox, check-out our virtual Digital Sandbox here.
That's very cool. Thanks for sharing that. I love what the team at RevRobotics have done. The RIOduino is pretty cool. We are definitely not looking to copy or re-invent something that's already been made. I also really like their new structural system!
