Improved light bar controller

Improved Light Bar Controller

I made several improvements to my light bar controller.  I added a push button that pauses the controller on a desired color. I added a red LED to indicate if the controller is paused.  I also modified the light bar so that it easily plugs into the breadboard.  I did this by replacing the polarized right angle connectors with non polarized headers (one straight and one right angle).  The improved controller also uses the Bare Bones Board from the Modern Device Company instead of the Diecimila.  Below is an updated schematic of the controller. Get the code here.
