Well you can’t log on to any site right now without seeing some news about the confirmed, but still not really confirmed collaboration between Apple Inc. and Dr. Dre‘s Beats Electronics. A partnership, that would make Dr. Dre the wealthiest hip-hop artist in history, and most likely, based on his entrepreneurial savvy, the first hip-hop billionaire.

She’s baaaack! Stella Myers, founder of Stellie Bellies Kiddie and Maternity Resale Boutique, is back in the stores. Ok, okay, truthfully she was never really gone; she has been in the background focusing her time on the big picture of expanding her business, by branching out into franchise locations. She, along her husband and partner Mike Myers, added their first franchise this February in Trinity, FL to the family of stores in St Petersburg and Palm Harbor. And now, just like the families her stores serve, she is delighted to walk through the front doors again to share time with store employees and customers.

My cousin Bert Novilla, a fellow Entrepreneur, and Assembly Language Programmer and Commodore computer enthusiast, has published an interesting article about his efforts, obstacles, solutions and personal obsession. Bert begins his article titled “The Assembly Line $00: An Introduction and Tools of the Trade” and continues by saying..
“Well, here we go. This is the first installment of a series focused on learning
to write assembly language programs for the 65x family of processors found in
Commodore computers. I would like to publicly thank Nigel at Commodore Free
for allowing me to share some of my programming knowledge and experience
with you here. My belief is that as the current computer “Renaissance” plays
out it is important to have modern information regarding assembly language
available to all of us. This series of articles is my effort. Thank you, Nigel.”
