The circuit is very simple. The RGB LED is hooked up to the PWM outputs on PORTB1 , PORTB2 and PORTB3 of the ATMega8. There is also a resistor between the LED and the ATmega8 to limit the current to 20mA. There is also a link to the datasheet of the RGB LED that is used in this project.

WASHINGTON - THE worst of the US's credit crisis may have passed, Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson said, though he acknowledged rising gas prices will blunt the effect of 130 million economic stimulus checks. He ruled out a second stimulus package for now. In an interview on Wednesday, Mr Paulson said the turmoil that has gripped Wall Street and that took a turn for the worse again in March has eased somewhat. 'There's progress', he said. 'I think we're closer to the end of this' than to the beginning. A prolonged housing slump, a severe credit crisis and soaring energy costs have pushed the economy to the edge of a recession. To help cushion the blow, the Bush administration and Congress speedily enacted a US$168 billion (S$230.7 billion) stimulus package of tax rebates for people and tax

If you are one of those who desperately want to get rid of your tattoo, either due to dissatisfaction or career concerns or perhaps changing fashion trends, you can try laser tattoo removal or fading, which is a virtually a painless procedure when compared to other tattoo removal methods. But before you decide to go for laser tattoo removal treatment or laser tattoo fading, it is necessary to take certain precautions to ensure that no complications arise when you undergo the laser treatment: · Avoid going out in the sun as much as possible and strictly stay away from sun tanning booths for two or more weeks prior the treatment.· Avoid taking oral as well as topical acne medications six months prior to the treatment.· Make sure that the skin is clean and dry.· Do not apply any cream

The slide show of featured posts which appears in my sidebar was among the most talked about feature of my recent redesign. This slide show is powered by JonDesign's SmoothGallery: a combination of JavaScript and Mootools which creates a cross-fading gallery of images which link to these posts.In this article, I'll explain the simplest methods of using SmoothGallery to create your own slide show of featured posts which you can display in your blog sidebar.
SmoothGallery offers many different styles of gallery, but unfortunately not all options function properly in Blogger powered blogs.So in this tutorial I will explain two different styles of SmoothGallery slide shows which I know can be used in Blogger blogs and have tested in different browsers:

[aggh! this post didn't post last night when it was supposed to! CURSES.][thanks for doing my work for me, WhoWhatWearDaily!]My fashion news sources tell me that prints are losing steam season by season. I'd never thought about it, but once I did, I realized that yeah, most people aren't walking around in anything other than solid colors. And for sure, the trends I've been into most are all about solid colors and definitely devoid of patterns. Not sure why this is...maybe people are letting the vintage-look trend peter out (a patterned blouse or dress can automatically signal "vintage" or be an easy fake) in favor of futuristic styling with solid colors. I mean, think about robots. Robots NEVER wear prints.On the flip side, though, the hot new thing that occasionally performs as a print is
It’s unbelievable how much it costs to buy a house these days.

Google doesn’t stop when it comes to improving their ad technology (Google Adsense). Timely, Google introduces new features to Google Adsense which prove to be beneficial for both advertisers and publishers. Later this year we have seen a lot of improvement in the Google Adsense program which can be summarized as:
Google Adsense gets a whole new fresh look
Google Adsense introduces Recent Messages and Optimization tips
Google Adsense gets round corners
Google Adsense launches dynamic ad management feature
Google Adsense offers payments through Western Union

An interesting sense of perspective appeared yesterday on Newsnow, perhaps by accident, possibly on purpose, one could never be sure with computers. A mind of their own or just a bunch of technophobes at the helm. It’s the same result.
The Hamhigh’s preview of April’s visit to Newcastle appeared on the roll and made interesting reading. Malcolm MacDonald’s insights proved to be rather more perceptive than anything a Setanta pundit could offer – no names, no pack drill. Oh, alright, the drongo known as Tim Sherwood (I just should not let people like him get under my skin but hellfire, he did) and although at a still relatively young stage, this season is starting to bear some fruit as far as Mr. MacDonald’s predictions go,
But for Arsenal it has been ultimately a poor season - and that is what you get when you play with kids

Diya, she was named! Diya which signifies light but ironically her fate made her the carriage of darkness for her family! Her mother loved her initially but couldn’t tell her, she wouldn’t have understood anyways. Then it was her father and grandma, who were expecting a male child. As if this wasn’t enough, fate played another joke, she was blind. With four more girls, her mother soon started hating her, cursing her and telling her that she was the cause of all the troubles, all this now, when she was able to understand! How much her mother wanted her to die, but she grew up, thin, lean, with a pale skin like withered leaves, rotting in the soil, with freckles all over, like a seventy year old, she grew up with the eternal wheel of time. Time flew…Her father was no more in a job, all what he did now was drinking and drinking endlessly. A mother with a burden of four girls and one blind girl, she thought of nothing but of ways to live, to survive. All the five girls were pu

Static tone on the phone I'll be breaking again
電話裡平穩的語氣中有我心碎的傷心Must be something better, babe
應該會好起來的, 對嗎寶貝?All the names that you called out in bed seem to fade
在床上曾呼喊過的名字似乎熱情不再To sometime never planned
那些曾經失控的出軌I won't cry for all the hunger in my heart, no
我不會因為內心的失落和寂寞而落淚I won't cry because I've made it through this far
我不再哭泣 只因為一直以來我承受了這麼多

Just coz you're raising the bet and call the shots now on
The dream is slowly fading for anyone who's still hoping that persistent rumors of Sonic appearing in Smash Bros. Brawl were true. As the game's launch approaches he's still nowhere to be seen...A new character has been unveiled, but it's not the blue-spike hedgehog. It's a much less known character (on this side of the planet anyway) called Lucas; a young boy with psychic power from the Japan-only Nintendo classic, Mother 3."while he is timid in nature, he fights splendidly. Is it possible he can surpass even Ness,", says Nintendo.But as the American release of the game draws nearer, and with the unveiling of a hedgehog-less box art, it's looking increasingly unlikely that Sega's mascot is going to show up.source: computerandvideogames.com
Okay.. maybe if I write about this one the memories will come back. I did dream last night… and I woke up remember it all, but then made breakfast for my husband, and got distracted… was it about dogs? No… was it about a man? Oh maybe… It could have been about dog shows, dog training.. I remember a building, and a restaurant?
Gah, it’s not coming back to me now, darnit! I wish I could retain dreams longer during the day.

Before the performance, Bob Weir and Grateful Dead historian Dennis McNally (who also wrote Desolate Angel, an acclaimed Kerouac biography) will take to the stage to discuss Kerouac and Neal Cassady, who was immortalized in the novel as Dean Moriarity and would later be a pivotal force in the formative years of the Grateful Dead, as primary driver (“Cowboy Neal at the wheel”) of the legendary Merry Pranksters bus known as “Furthur.” "http://www.dead.net/features/news/help-way-ratdog-kimock-steps-karan
When you meet someone that you really click with, the two of you soon become inseparable. After a whirlwind period of dating and getting to know each other, before you know it, the two of you are cohabitating and that feeling that you once shared, that uncontrollable urge to just be around that person, to touch and feel that person, is slowly fading away. How can this be? Just a few months ago, the two of you were all over each other and now it's almost as if you're good friends at best. If this describes your relationship in any way, it's definitely time for a romantic vacation getaway.Life's StrugglesNo matter what your field, or position in life, today's world is a hectic one. There is so much stimuli from every angle, not to mention the responsibilities we must endure just to keep our heads afloat, it's very difficult to find time for intimacy and that closeness that keeps a bond like love together. It's not that you don't like your love anymore; it's just that i
The differences between traders and faders are mostly their market momentum and entrance. A trader will wait for the market to get momentum in one direction or another and then buy-sell some stocks to make some money before the run ends. A fader will use a solid understanding of price shields to determine the end of a run and buy/sell in the other direction to catch some of the retracement. A trader will mostly try to live by the mantra, “trade with the trend, the trend is your friend” which is not a horrible plan, and you can believe me or not, I think you can be a fader and still use the trend.
If we were to ask you the trend that we were in right now on a certain pair, you probably couldn’t answer and it would be a very unfair question. This question would be unfair because many times we are in an upward trend, of a downward trend, and then of another upward trend etc. The direction of the trend just depends on the scale of your trade. A fader would trade with the

Buick was the special child in the GM family: the beautiful and temperamental second-oldest daughter that somehow always got the most attention from Daddy. Sure, oldest daughter Caddy got to wear the family jewels and formal gowns, but Buick was lavished with style. Whether it was Harley Earl or Bill Mitchell, GM’s top stylists always blessed Buick with their best efforts. For decades, Buick was maintained in the style to which she had become accustomed, and remained America’s fashion-conscious upscale buyers’ wheels of choice. And then, not.Scotsman David Dunbar Buick founded his eponymous automobile company in 1903. The following year, the inventor of the overhead valve engine sold the struggling concern to James Whiting, an ambitious wagon builder. Whiting turned to William Durant to help jump start Buick.With an excellent product to sell (the Model C), Durant’s energy, affability and marketing genius ensured Buick’s ascension to profit and glory.

Kibout, 59, spent the afternoon sitting in front of the old Chinese shop in Pasar Baru market, Central Jakarta. The exterior of the dilapidated two-story shop, dominated by faded red and decorated with oriental ornaments, bore the sign "Toko Kompak". "This house was built by Mayor Tio almost 200 years ago. This was the first building in the market," said Kibout, who grew up in the local neighborhood. Mayor Tio was one of the five mayors appointed to lead the Chinese ethnic community during the Dutch colonial period two centuries ago. The government declared Toko Kompak a cultural heritage building in 1993, along with four other shop buildings in the Pasar Baru Market area. However, only Toko Kompak has preserved its original appearance. The other buildings have already been renovated, maintaining only their original second floor exteriors. With its remarkable structure belonging to an older time, Toko Kompak now stands alone as a reminder of the past.

Hillary's star appeal fading - By Dick Morris and Eileen McGannExcerpt:"It’s now obvious that Hillary Clinton’s negatives are rising among American voters. A Harris Interactive survey says that a majority will not vote for her, and a Gallup poll this week finds her favorability among Democratic primary voters dropping from 82 percent in January, to 74 percent in March.By itself, this slippage would not be fatal. But it begs the key question: Why is Hillary dropping?"http://www.townhall.com/columnists/DickMorrisandEileenMcGann/2007/03/30/hillarys_star_appeal_fadingAlex

Just a few more thoughts on the intermediate-term sentiment backdrop based on one of my favorite indicators, The Merrill Lynch Fund Managers Survey. This is one of those "soft" indicators that can't be easily quantified but still offers a great deal of insight on the overall sentiment backdrop.Prior to the surge over the last 2 weeks, this year's high water mark for the NDX/QQQQ was made on January 12th. And what did the Fund Managers Survey say at that time?..."Investors Gung-Ho as U.S. Rate Risks Recede NEW YORK and LONDON, January 17, 2006 — Investors are celebrating what they see as the end of the U.S. Fed's rate-hike cycle with a headlong rush into equities, according to Merrill Lynch's Survey of Fund Managers for January. Compared with two months ago, cash levels have fallen from 4.3 percent to 3.5 percent, investment time horizons have lengthened and investors are increasingly taking on above-normal levels of risk."Fast forward to this year's low for the NDX/QQQQ and what
A few of you dear readers, thinkers, and autodidacts have written to let me know — in civilized but certain tones — that my affection for Newsweek bespeaks a certain, shall we say, shortcoming. You were too kind to define precisely what that shortcoming might be, but I suspect you were dancing perilously close to saying I should rely on better news sources.And I do, which should be apparent in the variety of links I provide here.But, yeah, I like Newsweek. Let's all get past that now, shall we?One of my favorite Newsweek features is the "My Turn" column [no apologies], and "Leave Your Hat On, But Lose the Jeans" from the December 15 issue was memorable in that, a month later, I'm still musing on the idea that "we have lost the glamour of a not-so-distant time" by favoring our jeans (overalls) and Birks over pumps and basic black. My first thought? It's hard to keep up with sneakered set when you're wearing 2.5-inch heels. My second thought? That uniforms, not unlike those in St
