6 LEDs setup like this: flickr.com/photos/randomskk/2158769361/
They flash on and off at high speed, so when waved about produce a message.
This new version has a little switch on the breadboard, when pressed it flashes the message once. This allows me to just have the message go by on the correct swing direction, and also makes it a LOT easier to get a good photograph.
I'm looking at using an accelerometer to do the same, but it would be able to automatically detect direction and speed and hopefully compensate to get a 'perfect' display.

This photo was taken in the early morning on March 24th of 2013.
While I was holding umbrella and walking by the West Lake, I saw this interesting scene a few steps in front of me. So I clicked...
I did not stay long enough, so it is hard for me to tell if he was doing regular and routine exercise or just randomly doing stretching.
One way or another doesn't affect how interesting and cute within this image. It is also cute to catch those elder people holding umbrella and chatting with each other in a distance.

Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men of talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.
- Calvin Coolidge
Time is the coin of your life. It is the only coin you have, and only you can determine how it will be spent. Be careful lest you let other people spend it for you.

"If I were asked to give what I consider the single most useful bit of advice for all humanity, it would be this: Expect trouble as an inevitable part of life and when it comes, hold your head high, look it squarely in the eye and say, "I will be bigger than you. You cannot defeat me.""

La dernière fois que je suis venu, les salles de l'abbaye étaient remplies de sable. Je me demande s'il n'en reste pas des grains par terre.
Salvador Dali
Spanish, 1904-1989
"The Persistence of Memory" 1931
Oil on canvas
Dali rendered his fantastic visions with meticulous verisimilitude, giving the representations of dreams a tangible and credible appearance. In what he called "hand painted dream photographs," hard objects become inexplicably limp, time bends, and metal attracts ants like rotting flesh. The monstrous creature draped across the painting's center resembles the artist's own face in profile; its long eyelashes seem insectlike or even sexual, as does what may or may not be a tongue oozing from its nose like a fat snail.
