RuBot II - The Rubik's cube solving robot
This is the new version of RuBot by Pete Redmond from Dublin, Ireland. It's very different to the prototype but it has to be the coolest looking robot solver ever. RuBot II set a new Guinness world Record in Jan 2009.
There are cameras in the eyes of the head that scan the cube before the pneumatic arms solve it. It usually solves the Cube in about 35 seconds (not including the scan) no matter how much it is mixed up. LINK: Youtube
There is another video I liked but there was no embed for it. Here is the LINK: Youtube

Howth Beautiful Pictures
Howth is a small peninsula about 12 km north-east of Dublin. You can visit the Howth Castle Gardens, which cover 12 hectares of magnificent flora. The small port village is also very nice. You can make a wonderful trip by boat around the peninsula.
Howth is a small paradise near the sea!
A small village 20 minutes by train from downtown. Howth is located at the north Dublin on a small peninsula, it is busy every Sunday with a small market on the port. A real pleasure to go through this walk which mixes scents and colors.
You can have lunch near the water while watching the seals which float around the harbour. Far from everything, it feels like you are on holiday!
At Howth Harbour, a large dam with a lighthouse has been erected at the east. Walking on the long dam is highly recommended. Feel the ocean wind blowing on your face and let your hair rocked.
The sight is simply exceptional at Howth, green hills ending with a cliff, the beach at the other side and opposite an island. Far from all worries and preoccupations, a corner of paradise..

The main entrance to Phoenix Park is located in Parkgate Street in Dublin 7, near Castleknock.
The name Phoenix Park comes from its pronunciation in Gaelic "fionn uisce" which means clear water.
Regularly in the summer, Phoenix Park allows many bands to perform outdoors (U2 in 1983 at a festival, The Cranberries in 2001 ...).
