I have been immersed in music and the arts since before I can remember. The more I experience music, the more I want to share my knowledge and talent with people of all ages, from five year old kids to grandparents, complete beginners to professionals.
I believe that every person has a story, and no matter how small or big, music always plays a part, so here is my story.
I was born in the United States, but only lived here for 4 years before moving overseas to a country called Azerbaijan, where I lived with my family for 14 years. In Azerbaijan I studied at a private music and ballet school under the instruction of many well known Russian and Azerbaijani professional musicians, while also learning the language at the same time. After becoming fluent in Azerbaijani I continued to study music at home with my mother. She is a professional flute player, but I chose to learn piano and singing from her while still keeping up my studies in dance. At the age of 15 I had already performed singing and dancing on television and the radio many times.
When I turned 17 and graduated from high school I spent six months in Australia, Sri Lanka, and India, working with a non profit organization performing tsunami relief work. In India I also gained experience in teaching music and dance to large crowds of little children at the schools, orphanages, and relief camps I visited. Seeing the joy and life that these simple music lessons brought these children is what inspired me to continue studying music and begin teaching.
I turned 18 in 2005 and moved to Seattle to study music at Seattle Pacific University. I specialized in vocals and music technology, while also teaching lessons on the side in both piano and vocals. During my four years in Seattle I played in several bands, and really developed my skills as a song writer and recording artist. After graduating with my Bachelors degree, I moved to San Francisco in 2009 to pursue my music here. It was hard to leave my students that I had in Seattle, but now I am 26 years old and am currently writing and recording my own music and playing shows all over the bay area.
Now I am looking forward to having knew students to teach and share my passion of music with here in San Francisco.
Bass Guitar, Guitar, Music Performance, Music Recording, Music Theory, Songwriting
I have been a musician for over 20 years. I have a BA in Music & Sound Recording, and am equally comfortable in the studio as I am on the stage. I currently lead my own band which plays all original music and I have released two CDs of my own music, in addition to playing and recording with many local acts. I also write, record and produce music for TV and movies. Let's just say I wear a lot of hats.
I love music, and surround myself with it at all times. There are very few styles that I don't like or don't listen to, and I try to stay current as much as I can. I play a number of different instruments besides the ones I teach, including harmonica, piano, organ, drums and percussion. I also have been singing for as long as I can remember.
I believe anyone can be musical, even if you don't play an instrument. Music is everywhere, and we all tune into it, whether we know it or not. I hope that we can learn something about music and each other, then throw it all aside and just jam!
Drum, English, Language, Music Performance, Reading
Hello Students/Parents:
I have been drumming for 19 years and currently I am playing professionally in the Bay Area. I studied Music Performance at Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA and at California State University, East Bay.
I am funny, friendly, outgoing, great with kids, , and have been teaching music for 4 years.
I tend to work mainly as a "For hire" drummer on multiple acts. Styles include: Pop/Rock/Funk/Reggae and Hip-hop.
I currently play with Street Drum Corps ("Percussion ensemble of the Year" from Drum Magazine! -2012)
I have been fortunate to have toured with great acts such as; The Vans Warped Tour, Rise of the Revolution, Collie Buddz, Blood and Water, The Phenomenauts, The Groovie Ghoulies, and many others. Also have shared the stage with: Neon Trees, Linkin Park, Bad Religion, The Limousines, Foster the people, Filter, Snoop Dogg, Sunspot Jonz, The Grouch, Murs, Living Legends, Tech-9, Andre Nickatina, and The Hieroglyphics' Crew.
I have had the pleasure to study with such greats as; Mylious Johnson (Pink, Nsync) Berklee College of Music Percussion Staff, Rick Algeria (Bo Diddly, Paul Williams), Dawn Richardson (4 Non-Blondes, Tracy Chapman) and Mike Vanderhule (YNT).
I like all kinds of music from Classical to Punk rock, and everything in between. Some drummers who really inspire me are from some of my favorite bands/artists such as: No doubt, The Police, Isreal and New Breed, P!nk, Mental 99, Cream, Michael Jackson, Aretha franklin, and the Red hot chili Peppers.
Sharing my craft to make others happy is what makes me happy, and drum lessons should be fun, yet challenging.
Thanks for reading!

Tega Cay is unique in the Fort Mill/Charlotte area as the only 27 hole golf course in the region. With extreme topographical changes it is the ultimate "target golf-mental game" challenge. It is no coincidence that the last hole of the Grande View Nine was recently voted "Favorite 18th Golf Hole in the area" by WFNZ listeners. Rolling hills, bent grass, bermuda fairways. New clubhouse with delicious meals in the Grande View Grille. 27-Picturesque holes on Lake Wylie, some challenging key shots make this golf course a must to play.

Politics of Israel Political parties Elections |
Kach (Hebrew: כ"ך) was a far-right political party in Israel. Founded by Rabbi Meir Kahane in the early 1970s, and following his Jewish nationalist ideology (subsequently dubbed Kahanism), the party entered the Knesset in 1984 after several electoral failures.[1] However, it was barred from participating in the next election in 1988 under the revised Knesset Elections Law banning parties that incited racism. After Kahane's assassination in 1990, the party split, with Kahane Chai (Hebrew: כהנא חי, lit. Kahane Lives) breaking away from the main Kach faction. The party was also barred from standing in the 1992 election, and both organisations were banned outright in 1994. Today both groups are considered terrorist organisations by Israel,[2] Canada,[3] the European Union[4] and the United States.[5] The groups are believed to have an overlapping core membership of less than 100 people.[6][7]
Early history[edit]
Kahane immigrated to Israel from the United States in September 1971, at first declaring that he would only involve himself in Jewish education.[8] However, he soon became involved in controversy, initiating protests advocating the expulsion of Arabs from Israel and the Palestinian territories. In 1972 Jewish Defense League leaflets were distributed around Hebron calling for the mayor to stand trial for the 1929 Hebron massacre.[9]
In 1971 Kahane founded a new party, Kach, which ran in the 1973 elections under the name "The League List".[10] The name "Kach" ("Thus") was inspired by the Irgun slogan "rak kach" ("only thus").[11] The party won 12,811 votes (0.82%), just 2,857 (0.18%) short of the electoral threshold at the time (1%) for winning a seat. The party was less successful in the 1977 elections, in which it won 4,396 votes, and in 1980 Kahane was sentenced to six months in prison for his involvement in a plan to commit an "act of provocation" on the Temple Mount.[9] The 1981 elections were another failure, with Kach receiving only 5,128 votes.
Electoral success[edit]
However, events in the next couple of years increased the party's popularity. In 1982 Israel returned the Sinai Peninsula to Egypt as part of the Israel-Egypt Peace Treaty which involved evacuating Israeli settlers living in the peninsula. There was fierce resistance, particularly in Yamit, the largest settlement, where several extremists had barricaded themselves inside a synagogue and were threatening to commit suicide. Menachem Begin's government asked Kahane to act as an intermediary and convince them to give in.
Prior to the 1984 elections the party was barred by the Central Elections Committee for racism. It successfully appealed to the Supreme Court, which reversed the CEC's decision, ruling that the Knesset Elections Law (one of the Basic Laws of Israel) did not allow a party to be barred on the grounds of racism, but did suggest that the law be amended.[9] In the elections the party won 25,907 votes (1.2%), passing the electoral threshold for the first time, and winning one seat, which was duly taken by Kahane.
Kahane's legislative proposals focused on revoking the Israeli citizenship for non-Jews and banning Jewish-Gentile marriages and sexual relations, based on the Code of Jewish Law compiled by Maimonides in the Mishneh Torah.
As his political career progressed, Kahane became increasingly isolated in the Knesset. His speeches, boycotted by Knesset members, were made to an empty parliament, except for the duty chairman and the transcriptionist. Kahane's legislative proposals and motions of no-confidence against the government were ignored or rejected by fellow Knesset members. Kahane often pejoratively called other Knesset members "Hellenists" in Hebrew (a reference from Jewish religious texts describing ancient Jews who assimilated into Greek culture after Judea's occupation by Alexander the Great). In 1987, Rabbi Kahane opened a yeshiva (HaRaayon HaYehudi) with funding from US supporters, for the teaching of "the Authentic Jewish Idea".
Despite the boycott, Kahane's popularity grew. Polls showed that Kach would have likely received three to four seats in the coming November 1988 elections,[12][13] with some earlier polls forecasting as many as twelve seats,[14][15] possibly making Kach third largest party.
In response to Kach's electoral success and following up on the recommendation of the Supreme Court, the Knesset passed an amendment to the Elections Law, which stated:[9]
A candidates list shall not participate in elections to the Knesset if its objects or actions, expressly or by implication, include one of the following:
- negation of the existence of the State of Israel as the state of the Jewish people;
- negation of the democratic character of the State
- incitement to racism
As a result, Kach was disqualified from running in the 1988 elections by the Central Elections Committee. The party once again appealed the decision, with Kahane claiming that security needs were justification for discrimination against Arabs. This time the appeal was unsuccessful, with the court stating that the aims and action of Kach were "manifestly racist."[9]
Kahane's death and party split[edit]
On 5 November 1990, Kahane was assassinated [16] after making a speech in New York. The prime suspect, El Sayyid Nosair, an Egyptian-born American citizen, was subsequently acquitted of murder but convicted on gun possession charges.[17] The party subsequently split in two, with Binyamin Ze'ev Kahane (Kahane's son) leading a breakaway faction, Kahane Chai, based in Kfar Tapuach (an Israeli settlement in the West Bank) and Kach initially under the leadership of Rabbi Avraham Toledano (later replaced by Baruch Marzel) in Kiryat Arba. Both parties were banned from participating in the 1992 elections on the basis that they were followers of the original Kach.
Following both parties noting their support of a grenade attack in Jerusalem's Old City, government minister Amnon Rubinstein asked the Attorney General to launch criminal proceedings against both Kahane and Marzel on the charges of incitement to terrorism.
In 1994 both groups were banned outright by the Israeli cabinet under 1948 anti-terrorism laws [18] following statements in support of Baruch Goldstein's massacre of 29 Palestinians at the Cave of the Patriarchs (Goldstein himself was a Kach supporter).[19] Many of their leaders spent time in Israeli jail under administrative detention, particularly Noam Federman, who spent more than 6 months in lockup without being indicted. Yigal Amir, who assassinated Yitzhak Rabin in 1995 who was in contact with Eyal (the Jewish Fighting Organization), established and headed by Avishai Raviv (a paid government informant) and portrayed as linked to Kach and Kahane Chai.[20]
After being convicted for sedition for distributing pamphlets advocating violence against Arabs, Binyamin Ze'ev Kahane and his wife were both killed in a Palestinian ambush in December 2000.[21]
Following the banning of Kach and Kahane Chai, the movements officially disbanded. The leadership of the former Kahane Chai formed an advocacy group known as The Kahane Movement. The group's activities consist mainly of maintaining the Kahane website, kahane.org. However, the Kahane Movement is listed on the United States' list of terrorist organizations as an alias for "Kach", though the group denies this.
The New Kach Movement existed during between 2001 and 2003 and maintained websites posting Kahanist political commentary and held meetings with informal members. Headed by Israeli-born student Efraim Hershkovits, it had chapters worldwide as well as a youth movement, Noar Meir. Upon returning to live in Israel in 2003, Hershkovits disbanded the movement to avoid harassment by the Israeli government, advising its former members to support the Kahane Movement. After the organization had disbanded, its name was also added to the United States' list of terrorist organizations as an alias for "Kach". Hershkovits was arrested on 7 August 2005 and placed in administrative detention for three months by Israeli authorities.
Today the United States continues to designate the group a terrorist organization,[5] and says that it has engaged in terrorist activity by
- using explosives or firearms with intent to endanger the safety of individuals or cause substantial damage to property (including an attempt to car bomb a Palestinian girls school in East Jerusalem)[22]
- threatening and conspiring to carry out assassinations
- soliciting funds and members for a terrorist organization
The State Department also says that the group is suspected of involvement in a number of low-level attacks since the start of the Second Intifada in 2000.[6]
In the 2003 elections former Kach leader Baruch Marzel ran as number two on the Herut – The National Movement party list. The party narrowly missed obtaining a seat. In 2004 he founded the Jewish National Front, which gained 24,824 votes (0.7%) in the 2006 elections, less than half needed to win a seat. Michael Ben-Ari, elected to the Knesset in 2009 on the Ihud Haleumi list, where he represents Eretz Yisrael Shelanu, is a self-declared follower of Rabbi Kahane who was involved with Kach for many years. Jewish National Front merged into Eretz Yisrael Shelanu prior to the election.

Power pop is a popular musical genre that draws its inspiration from 1960s British and American pop and rock music. It typically incorporates a combination of musical devices such as strong melodies, clear vocals and crisp vocal harmonies, economical arrangements and prominent guitar riffs. Instrumental solos are usually kept to a minimum, and blues elements are largely downplayed.
Recordings tend to display production values that lean toward compression and a forceful drum beat. Instruments usually include one or more electric guitars, an electric bass guitar, a drum kit and sometimes electric keyboards or synthesizers.
While its cultural impact has waxed and waned over the decades, power pop is among rock's most enduring subgenres.[1]
Power pop has been described as mixture of hard rock and melodic pop music.[2] Power pop tends to be more aggressive than pop rock.[3]
Author John M. Borack has stated in his book the genre is often been applied to varied groups and artists with "blissful indifference" noting incorrect labeling of the genre to Britney Spears, Green Day, The Bay City Rollers and Def Leppard.[4]
Formative years: mid-1960s through the early 1970s[edit]
Writing for Allmusic, John Dougan described the genre's origins:
The musical sourcepoint for nearly all power pop is The Beatles. Virtually all stylistic appropriations begin with them: distinctive harmony singing, strong melodic lines, unforgettable guitar riffs, lyrics about boys and girls in love; they created the model that other power poppers copied for the next couple of decades. Other profound influences include The Who, The Kinks and The Move, bands whose aggressive melodies and loud distorted guitars put the "power" in power pop.[2]
Pete Townshend of The Who coined the term "power pop" in a 1967 interview in which he said: "Power pop is what we play—what the Small Faces used to play, and the kind of pop The Beach Boys played in the days of 'Fun, Fun, Fun' which I preferred."[5] The Beatles and The Byrds, along with The Who, The Small Faces and The Beach Boys, are often cited as the progenitors of power pop.[6]
The Who, inspired by the melodicism of The Beatles and the driving rhythms of American R&B, released several songs—"I Can't Explain", "The Kids Are Alright", "Substitute", "I'm a Boy" and "Happy Jack"—in their early mod phase (1965–1966) that can be considered the first true power pop songs. These songs are propelled by Keith Moon's aggressive drumming and Pete Townshend's distinctive power chords, and have strong melodies and euphonic harmonies.
The Who's role in the creation of power pop has been cited by singer-songwriter Eric Carmen of the Raspberries, who has said:
Pete Townshend coined the phrase to define what The Who did. For some reason, it didn't stick to The Who, but it did stick to these groups that came out in the '70s that played kind of melodic songs with crunchy guitars and some wild drumming. It just kind of stuck to us like glue, and that was okay with us because The Who were among our highest role models. We absolutely loved The Who.[7]
The Beatles released similar-sounding singles such as "Paperback Writer" and "Day Tripper" in 1965–66, as well as guitar-driven but melodic album tracks such as "And Your Bird Can Sing". However, four years before the term "power pop" was coined, The Beatles were already recording pop hits that some have retroactively classified as power pop, including "From Me to You", "She Loves You", "I Want to Hold Your Hand" and "Can't Buy Me Love".
Several groups that arose in the wake of The Beatles' success were important in the evolution and expansion of the power pop style, such as The Hollies and The Monkees, as well as "softer" acts such as The Beau Brummels, The Cowsills, The Zombies and the "bubblegum" singles of the Kasenetz-Katz production team. Other acts such as The Knickerbockers, The Easybeats and The Outsiders contributed iconic singles. Writer John Borack has noted, "It's also quite easy to draw a not-so-crooked line from garage rock to power pop."[8]
By 1970 the distinctive stylistic elements of power pop were clearly evident in recordings by the British group Badfinger, with singles such as "No Matter What", "Baby Blue" and "Day After Day" serving as templates for the power pop sound that would follow.[8]
Although the formative influences on the genre were primarily British, the bands that developed and codified power pop in the 1970s were nearly all American. The Raspberries' 1972 hit single "Go All The Way" is an almost perfect embodiment of the elements of power pop and that group's four albums can be considered strongly representative of the genre. Some of Todd Rundgren's early and mid-1970s solo work also touched on power pop, as did the recordings of Blue Ash, the Flamin' Groovies, Artful Dodger and The Dwight Twilley Band. The most influential group of the period may have been Big Star. Though Big Star's initial early 1970s career met with no commercial success, they developed an avid cult following and members of later bands like R.E.M. and The Replacements spoke enthusiastically of their esteem for the group's work. The Replacements even recorded a song entitled "Alex Chilton" in honor of Big Star's frontman.
Commercial peak: late 1970s to early 1980s[edit]
Spurred on by the emergence of punk rock and new wave, power pop enjoyed a prolific and commercially successful period in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
Although coined in the 1960s, and used as early as 1973 in reference to Sweet,[9] the term "power pop" was not widely used until around 1978. As the novelist Michael Chabon has written, "Power pop in its essential form... did not come into existence for a number of years after it was first identified. Like so much of the greatest work turned out by popular artists of the 1970s, true power pop is quintessential second-generation stuff."[10] The term was often used in reference to critics' favorites Elvis Costello and Nick Lowe, whose style was viewed as a less-threatening version of punk rock.[11][12] Los Angeles-based Bomp! magazine championed power pop in its March 1978 issue, tying the genre's roots to 1960s groups like The Who and The Easybeats through Raspberries of the early 1970s.[13]
Like their punk brethren, late–1970s power pop groups favored a leaner and punchier sound than their early–1970s predecessors. Some occasionally incorporated synthesizers into their music, though not to the same degree as did their new wave counterparts. Representative singles from the period include releases from the Bomp! Records label by 20/20 ("Giving It All"), Shoes ("Tomorrow Night") and The Romantics ("Tell It to Carrie"). Major label groups like Cheap Trick, The Cars and Blondie merged power pop influences with other styles and achieved their first mainstream success with albums released in 1978. Cheap Trick's 1979 album Cheap Trick at Budokan went triple platinum in the United States,[14] and singles such as "Surrender" and "I Want You To Want Me" brought power pop to an international audience.
Visually taking their cue from 1960s British Invasion groups, some power pop bands decked themselves out in skinny ties and matching suits. Other groups such as the The Romantics adopted matching red leather outfits reminiscent of 1950s rock n roll stars such as Little Richard. Some bands such as The Beat adapted the look of punk rocker contemporaries such as the Ramones and the Sex Pistols.
The biggest chart hit by a pure power pop band was The Knack's debut single, "My Sharona", which topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart for six weeks in the summer of 1979. The accompanying platinum-selling album, Get the Knack, paved the way for major label debuts that fall by The Pop, Shoes, 20/20 and The Beat. However, "My Sharona"'s ubiquitous radio presence that summer spawned a popular and critical backlash against the band, which in turn led to a backlash against the power pop genre in general. Few of the power pop albums which followed Get the Knack charted at all, and those that did attained only middling positions on the Billboard 200. The Romantics had a minor hit with "What I Like About You" in early 1980, but, by then, power pop was seen as a passing fad by many critics.[15] Most of this crop of bands continued to release albums throughout the early 1980s, but with the exception of The Romantics' In Heat (1983), none garnered much attention. Other groups such as The Plimsouls, The Smithereens and the dB's found a home on college radio, where power pop would endure for the remainder of the decade.
United Kingdom[edit]
The term "power pop", as used in the United Kingdom, referred to a somewhat different style of music than that of the United States. The Evening Standard used the term in January 1978 while writing about The Rich Kids and Tonight.[16] Other British bands labelled as power pop included The Jam, The Incredible Kidda Band, The Amber Squad, The Boys, The Pleasers, The Stukas, The Monos!, The Boyfriends, Squeeze, Buzzcocks, Starjets, The Vapors, The Soft Boys, and The Chords. The term became something of a catchall, as many of these groups have also been described as "mod revival", "punk rock" or "new wave". Lacking the influence of American pioneers such as Big Star and Raspberries, these bands were more directly inspired by 1960s beat music bands, particularly The Who, The Kinks and The Beatles. They also took a cue from the energy and aesthetics of the contemporary punk movement, speeding up the tempo of their music.
Other UK artists of the late 1970s commonly identified as power pop were the new wave bands XTC and Elvis Costello & The Attractions. They played driving, melodic music, but neither group sported the mod image or overt 1960s influence of The Jam and their followers. A handful of successful bands in the United Kingdom did boast the traditional power pop sound as inspired by the Raspberries and Big Star. Singles from such groups, such as The Records' "Starry Eyes", Nick Lowe's "Cruel to be Kind" and Bram Tchaikovsky's "Girl of My Dreams", rivaled or even surpassed their American counterparts in capturing the essential elements of power pop. Perhaps as a consequence, these bands were more commercially successful in the United States than in their homeland.
Additionally, the American new wave group Blondie was often labelled as "power pop" by the UK press. The band's songs "One Way or Another" and "11:59" from Parallel Lines clearly demonstrated Blondie's power pop side. The most notable Australian power pop band of the period was probably The Innocents; rock historian Glenn A Baker claimed they were "the greatest power pop band since the demise of Raspberries".[17]
Having influenced the development of power pop from the beginning, British rock group The Kinks made several well-received songs in the style in their 1984 album Word of Mouth, such as "Do It Again".[18]
Contemporary power pop: 1980s to 2000s[edit]
In the 1980s and 1990s, power pop continued as a commercially modest genre. Artists such as The Spongetones,[8] Marshall Crenshaw, Del Amitri, The Smithereens, Enuff Z'Nuff, Matthew Sweet, Tommy Keene, Redd Kross, Material Issue, Let's Active and The Posies drew inspiration from Big Star, The Beatles and glam rock groups of the early 1970s like T. Rex and Sweet.[2] Albums such as Material Issue's International Pop Overthrow (1991), Jellyfish's Bellybutton (1990) and Teenage Fanclub's Bandwagonesque (1991) would be greatly influential within the genre, but few translated to mainstream success.
In the mid-1990s through the 2000s, power pop flourished in the underground with acts such as Sloan. Independent record labels such as Not Lame Recordings, Parasol, Kool Kat Musik and Jam Recordings specialized in the genre. The sound made a mainstream appearance in 1994 with Weezer's commercially successful "blue album" (produced by Ric Ocasek of The Cars)[19] and hit single "Buddy Holly".[20] In the late 1990s, several Scandinavian power pop groups such as the The Cardigans, Merrymakers and Wannadies enjoyed a modicum of critical favor.
Power pop traits are also currently displayed by North American bands such as Gin Blossoms, Fountains of Wayne, Brendan Benson, The Posies, The New Pornographers, Guided By Voices, Semisonic, Jimmy Eat World, The Click Five, The Dandy Warhols, Sloan, Wheatus, The Brother Kite, The Apples in Stereo, Cotton Mather and Fastball. The influence of power pop is also apparent in contemporary British groups such as Silver Sun, Snow Patrol, The Futureheads, Maxïmo Park, Farrah, 1970s. Acts such as the Jonas Brothers have also sometimes been referred to as "power pop."[21][22][23][24]
Festival bills[edit]
International Pop Overthrow – named after the song of the same name by Material Issue – is a power pop festival that has been organizing events since 1997. Originally taking place in Los Angeles, the festival has expanded to several locations over the years including Chicago, New York, Boston, Cleveland, San Francisco, Vancouver, Toronto and Liverpool, England (the latter event included performances at the re-created Cavern Club). Paul Collins of The Beat and The Nerves hosts the annual Power Pop-A-Licious music festival, which features a mixture of classic and rising bands with an emphasis on power pop, punk rock, garage and roots rock. The yearly festival is held in Asbury Park, New Jersey. Paul Collins and his group The Beat headline the two-day event.
Books and internet resources[edit]
Ken Sharp and Doug Sulpy released Power Pop: Conversations with the Power Pop Elite in 1997. The book contained interviews with power pop artists from throughout the genre's history. Sharp has also written books on Raspberries and Cheap Trick.[25] In 2007, John Borack published Shake Some Action: The Ultimate Power Pop Guide in association with power pop label-retailer Not Lame Recordings. The book contained essays by several writers including Borack, a list of 200 "essential albums" and an accompanying CD.
The popular blog PowerPop includes daily entries on "the precursors, the practioners and the descendants of power pop".[26]

Getting Started with Spring RCP
Creating a View
Now we will create a new window in our application.
- Right-click the project node and choose New | Spring View, as shown here:
- In the New Spring View dialog, type "CustomerView" and set the existing package as your package name:
- Click Finish. You now have a new class that extends the Spring RCP AbstractView class:
package simple;
import javax.swing.JComponent;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import org.springframework.richclient.application.support.AbstractView;
public class CustomerView extends AbstractView {
protected JComponent createControl() {
JPanel panel = new JPanel();
return panel;
}Open the richclient-application-context.xml file. At the end of the file, notice that your view has been automatically registered for you as follows:
<bean id="CustomerView" class="org.springframework.richclient.application.support.DefaultViewDescriptor">
<property name="viewClass" value="simple.CustomerView"></property>
</bean>Finally, open ui/messages.properties and notice the new entry for the menu item that will open the view:
- Run the application and go to Window | Show View, from where you can open the new Customer View:
- Let's make our new view open by default whenever the application starts. In other words, our Customer View will be the application's initial view. To do that, open the richclient-application-context.xml file and find the bean that has "lifecycleAdvisor" as its "id" attribute. Add this property to that bean's list of properties:
<property name="startingPageId" value="CustomerView" />
Notice that the "name" attribute can be completed automatically if you call up code completion (which is Ctrl-Space, by default):
Therefore, the whole bean definition is now as follows:
<bean id="lifecycleAdvisor" class="simple.SimpleLifecycleAdvisor">
<property name="startingPageId" value="CustomerView" />
<property name="windowCommandBarDefinitions" value="ui/commands-context.xml" />
<property name="windowCommandManagerBeanName" value="windowCommandManager" />
<property name="menubarBeanName" value="menuBar" />
<property name="toolbarBeanName" value="toolBar" />
</bean> - Run the application again and notice that the Customer View now appears when the application starts.

Don't get me wrong, it's a nice effort...but the amount of XML config required to make the most basic of setup makes my stomach turn. Really, most of this should be one method call to some common ancestor or static class to register and configure your views.
I don't want to even think what sort of havoc you could wreck on your app if you did any major refactoring of your code and your IDE didn't update the Spring XML files correctly.
It seems like the wrong solution for an issue than in 95% of the cases will not change over time any way and hence does probably not need to be soft-coded in XML, down to every last little detail.
But Spring is the hot kid on the block these days, so I guess that's the way everyone is going...I for once would prefer that someone creates something equivalent but lets you configure it with simple annotations like EJB 3.0. Isn't annotation support part of the new Spring release?
Could this example be re-worked to avoid configuring every single detail in XML and using the new Spring annotations instead?

Yes, but let's face it....since the project lead left to join Adobe, JSR-296 seems to be as dead as the dodo, if I recall correctly.
The last release is from Nov 2007 when Hans was still employed with Sun...doesn't exactly install confidence in the long term viability of this JSR. Say what you want about Spring, but at least it has a large active community.

True enough, except that Spring RCP hasn't existed in any real form over the past years. Now it's back but there's no guarantee that it'll go anywhere. (The 1.0.0 release just came out, after two years, and so who knows when the next release will be with us?) I would personally like it to do so (hence this article and hence the tooling I'm providing, should you need evidence), but there's no guarantees (hard to argue with Kirill's comments here). In that sense, depending on Spring RCP is as problematic as depending on JSR-296, but for different reasons. (And that's why I focused only on the technology in this article without being distracted by the politics around it.)

You're right, but the registration you speak of is just the sort of locator pattern we want to refactor out of the system. I'm looking into the annotation based configuration, which works great as long as you don't do a lot of configuration besides injecting other beans (f.e. using a propertyplaceholder configurer in conjunction with the component scanning provided in Spring 2.5 is proving to be a real PITA).
I don't think the XML configuration is that much of a burden, if you have a good IDE with Spring support I don't think you'll have a lot of issues. I've worked in a company where all products were made with Spring RCP, and I haven't encountered any problems concerning writing all those bean definitions. There could be some improvement, but I'm thinking more in the line of custom namespaces.
Anyway, you're right in many ways. Things should be simplified. But then again, writing all my forms in YAML also seems a real hassle, and I'm sure a refactor will certainly cause all sorts havoc there too... :)
Jacek Furmankiewicz replied on Tue, 2008/07/01 - 10:23am in response to: Lieven Doclo
Point taken :-) I guess I just like YAML a lot more than XML (and I think writing the forms in YAML is a lot less hassle than coding them by hand, but hey...I recognize it's an off the beaten path approach).
It just seems that with Spring it's an all or nothing proposition, even the most basic config stuff is externalized. Seems overkill for 90% of apps.
Peter Karussell replied on Tue, 2008/07/01 - 4:24pm
Great Geertjan!
Thanks a lot!
Does NetBeans handle the refactoring in XML? If yes, how?
>> Secondly, you can try the Swing Application Framework (JSR-296) if you want annotations rather than XML.
Isn't it possible to configure Spring with Java or a scripting language? In picocontainer this is possible with nanocontainer.
Any hints?

Excuse me, if this is the wrong place for such questions.
I was interested in using a view to display the changes made in another view, both dockable.
How would you do that, when the both views are not known and they are created by the VLDockingApplicationPageFactory?
I though I could implement the Observer Pattern, but since the views are created by the factory I can´t get any Observable object registered in the Observer View.
Any Ideas?
Weggy Boy replied on Sat, 2008/09/20 - 3:03am in response to: Peter Karussell
Thanks for your answer Peter!
What I´ve done is exactly that, just I´m having some problems with the GUI actualization, since the form inputs works on a DialogWizard. The Other docked View must first be "resized" before the changes can be shown... Tipical GUI Problem...
Best Regards!

Jaworski's Meats
In 1935, Fred Jaworski stood behind the counter of his small meat stand in the old Newburg Market. Jaworski Meats was born, another ethnic market amongst the dozens in Slavic Village. But through the years, his modest meat stand became the Grande Dame of Polish markets in Cleveland, its success a product of Fred's most important ingredients: hard work, dedication to his customers and, of course, family. Fred's wife Dorothy and their son Mark quickly became integral parts to Jaworski Meats and have worked there for as long as they can remember. The market has always been regarded as a part of our family. Three generations of nephews, sons and daughters have worked within the venerable walls of Jaworski Meats.
In 1996, Fred wore his unmistakable paper butcher hat for the final time, when he passed away in March of that year. To the community, Fred was known simply as "The Kielbasa King." To his family, he was a husband, a father and a papa. It is in all of these images that Fred's heritage lives— today Jaworski Meats is owned and operated by Mark Jaworski, the Kielbasa Kid. Mark continues to operate on his father's principles and our establishment is more than proud to meat the needs of the greater Cleveland community, continuing in the family tradition. Mark's nephew, Adam, works full-time at the market alongside his uncle. And of course, Dorothy, still going strong, continues full-time at Jaworski's, too. You'll see her making Kielbasa, standing over the cranky mixer, steeping the ground pork in spices consistent with the age-old family recipe.
Receiving multiple deliveries a week, all of our meat is fresh— steaks, ribs, chops, chicken, cold cuts, cheeses. You name it. All of our specialties are homemade— kielbasa, sausages, smokies, Czernina, stuffed cabbage, pierogi and even kiszka. Check out our lunch menu, backed by a deli counter full of more than just the standard fare. Our homemade roast beef, roast pork and kielbasa loaf are second to none. Or try the daily lunch special— homemade soups and unique sandwich creations. And who knows what else you will find— Mark is always tucked away in the back, tending to ovens and stoves, synthesizing flavors and creating new tastes that redefine the idea of food.
But we pride ourselves on more than just food. We offer a shopping experience you won't find in any grocery store. Our walls proudly display photographs and tools of the Polish culture. We'll cut your meat to order, right in front of you. And we still use white butcher paper. On Saturday's, you'll hear the unmistakable sound of the old squeeze-box in stereo. But don't be surprised if you hear a little Neil Young, too. Talk Browns, Indians, Buckeyes and Cavs with Mark and Adam. But keep quiet if you are a steelers, red sox or michigan fan. You might 'accidently' get a thumb on the scale. We do our best to make sure folks leave our store with a smile. At Jaworski's we don't just run a business. There is a difference. To us, our market is a way of life, a reflection of the proud dedication of the Jaworski name.
So stop in, say "Hi." We'll be happy to cut you a nice two inch steak, right off the loin. But please, don't ask us for a vegetarian meal.

I won't, and you can't make me.
Kevin Winslow I mean Wayne Morgan
For me, it's Orr, Eustachy, Floyd. Hoiberg's reign isn't done, but he could top them all in the end. Johnny got the magic started and put a spotlight on the program. Coming here from Michigan was really a coup for Iowa State. And he was HILARIOUS. And while I always felt we could beat ANYBODY coming into Hilton, his team's could never win on the road in conference. I thought Floyd was a good game coach. Scoring 55 points a game wasn't the most exciting thing in the world, but getting Ws was nice, regardless. Pulling together a Big 8 Conference Tournament champion out of a bunch of JUCO transfers picked for last was amazing. That and a Sweet 16. And he recruited Marcus Fizer as part of a top-5 class. The rest of that class didn't pan out, but Fizer was the foundation for Larry's first conference title. I was disappointed to see him leave for the NBA but he did get his hands a little dirty at USC. Larry gave us back-to-back Big 12 regular-season titles (with and without Marcus Fizer) and a tournament title. Plus an Elite 8. Take Michigan State in Auburn Hills out of the equation, and I think we win the national title in 2000. Tom Izzo said Iowa State was the toughest team they played in tournament. Larry knew what he had here and what he could have had. He said the ingredients were here to win a national title and I believe that. We all know what caused his downfall. Sad and disappointing. Never really knew what to think of Wayne Morgan. Didn't hate him. Didn't love him. And a messy exit. McDermott. In over his head. Tripped up the program and then dragged it along behind. World record for transfers out of the program. Losing to MVC teams and worse. Beating only one ranked opponent during his tenure. Hilton's atmosphere went from one of the best in college basketball to mediocre at best. His biggest plus was probably signing Craig Brackins. I cannot thank Creighton enough for taking him. Fred. So happy to see the team progress during this season. They did not look good early but really came together. Time will tell, but the best thing about Fred, even moreso than his NBA experience, is that he is Clone to the Bone. And that is worth a whole hell of a lot in my book.
Compared to a lot of you guys, I'm a new Cyclones fan. To me, it feels like I've liked them for a long time, but I only started following their sports when I came here for school in the fall of 2009. So it's obvious what my choice is but I'll say it anyway. The Mayor. Great guy and I'm looking forward to many more great seasons with him.
Eustachy - Put together the best team of the last 50 years at ISU. Developed Fizer and the other talent left further than anyone imagined they could get, plus brought in the perfect pieces to fill in the gaps. That team was more about buying into what LE was selling than it was about the talent Floyd left. Hopefully, CFH will take Eustachy's spot at the top of my list someday. It will take a final four run to do that.

Yes Nation, that is right. I was in the audience of the Colbert Report, wearing my awesome Chairman Meow t-shirt. I was in the center of the left group, aisle seating. I saw myself twice in the show. Unfortunately it was while the camera was doing a quick pan and scan, but STILL! And on top of that, not only did I get a lot of looks and smiles, BUT, I got to ask the wonderful Mr. Colbert a question, and he undoubtedly saw my shirt as he was but 20 feet away from me. :-)
