I'm standing on the old medieval bridge looking at the new one.

Prats de Mollo la Preste was once a walled town defending the northern border of Catalonia against the French.
However, the Treaty of the Pyrenees in 1659 divided Catalonia between France and Spain so its role was changed.
The large fort on the hill, Fort Lagarde, was built by Vauban (who else?) in 1683 as much to keep the locals under control as to defend against the Spanish after the locals rebelled against French rule up until 1667.

After yesterday's odyssey we went on a slow drive up the local Vallespir valley.
Robots were in action on Saturday, Jan. 21, at Penn State York when 35 teams of middle and high school students took part in the FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC) South Central PA Regional Qualifier, a robotics competition. More than 500 attendees, including competitors, volunteers, and spectators attended the event. The winning alliance, comprised of three teams, were the Javengers from Enola, Pennsylvania; Cubix^3 from Hampstead, Maryland; and Sparks from Villanova, Pennsylvania. The finalist alliance, or second place winners, included Imagine It from Palmyra, Pennsylvania; Metal Works from Lancaster, Pennsylvania, and GearHounds, from York, Pennsylvania. This was the seventh time the campus has hosted an FTC event.
Tech Wars was held October 22, 2014 at Valley City State University in Valley City, ND. It was a competition between 40 university students from VCSU. Topics included Raspberry Pi, GPS Treasure Hunt, and software programming with MIT's Scratch environment. Teams were rewarded points based on software requirements criteria and speed. Winners received tablet computers, Best Buy gift card, or an iPod Shuffle for 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place.

In 2009, I was asked by Indiana Tech's women's soccer coach to photograph soccer games. It was my first paying gig and it was pretty sweet. These are some of my favorites.

Microvision promises that a "fully functioning, self-contained prototype that should be available as a real product-possibly from Motorola-later this year." There are no specs out yet, but the publicity photos display a device apparently similar in size to the iPod. Such portability means that the SHOW, as the pocket projector is named, could be the perfect complement for smartphones and PDAs. Which is why I'm going to watch this product's development eagerly-and hope that Microvision also finds a way to get it to work with other gadgets aside from "laptops, the iPod touch, and some phones."
