The van is an autonomous vehicle developed at the University of Parma’s Artificial Vision and Intelligent Systems Laboratory,...

Whole shrimps, beef & tofu, egg & tomato, pork & melon soup and something green. Oh and some nice Longjing green tea - a speciality of the area. Tastes all the better for being served in a “Budweiser” glass. As we were eating, in some back-street place full of locals, we were approached by numerous fortune-tellers and men selling vegetables.

RT @fling iPhone OS 3.1 is the worst update so far. After multiple restores it is still locking up, crashing and overall semi-bricked. #N97

So the first time it broke, about 6 weeks ago, it wasn’t his fault, the original Nintendo DS case had cracked plastic around the right-hand hinge on the lid, making it all floppy. So, I got him a replacement replica case from http://www.ebay.co.uk/ for £15. Took me about 2 hours to replace the whole thing - he wanted to go from his original red case to camoflague - so I had to dismantle...
