!Bates Family
!!Norman Bates
[[caption-width-right:350:''"Maybe some people don't get to start over."'']]
->'''Played By:''' Freddie Highmore
A smart, quietly funny, handsome and sometimes shy seventeen-year-old boy with an intensely close bond to his mother. Norman is resistant to starting over in a new town, but begins to change his mind as he spread his wings a little.
* {{Adorkable}}: Norman is awkward around others but means well. As long as you're not trying to hurt his mother that is...
* BadLiar: Whenever he tries to lie, he avoids eye contact, stammers and even becomes outright aggressive.
** [[spoiler: Adverted when he passes the polygraph test ordered by Sheriff Romero.]]
* BerserkButton: Insult Norma in front of Norman, just try it. If you're lucky, you'll be able to defend yourself from a killing blow.
** Anytime a member of the opposite sex shows interest in Norma in front of him.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Norman is polite and nice to most everybody he meets. Most characters don't realize that this shy momma's boy is who they should be worried about angering.
* BigOlEyebrows: See the picture.
* ChickMagnet: Seriously. Every teenage girl seems to want a piece of him for some reason.
* CuteAndPsycho: He's well-mannered, a little shy and even-tempered...but when you hit one of his [[BerserkButton buttons]], he'll do his utmost to ruin you, as [[spoiler:his father, Dylan and Ms Watson found out.]]
* DisappearedDad: His father dies prior to the show.
* TheDutifulSon: In contrast to disobedient rebel Dylan, Norman is usually at his mother's beck and call.
* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette: The show took cues from Anthony Perkins' appearance in the original film and cast the tall, pale, dark-haired Freddie Highmore.
* ExtremeDoormat: Mostly when it comes to his mother. Norman has a hard time saying no to her though he tries sometimes when he believes Norma has really crossed the line. He also goes along with most things others ask him to do as well.
* IncestSubtext: He checks out his mother through a window when she's getting dressed.
* InTheBlood: Every living member of the Bates family [[spoiler: has murdered at least one person in a rage.]]
* MommasBoy: He's practically the poster boy. Norman can't help but act like a jealous, possessive lover with her...and she's the same with him. They both seem to want some measure of freedom from each other, but won't allow the other to have it.
* MommyIssues: After Norma [[spoiler:gets raped, Norman keeps the rapist's tool belt as a memento of it. Even he is unsure of why he did this.]]
* OedipusComplex: He hates it when men show attraction to his mother, and is fiercely protective of her even when she doesn't need it.
* {{Patricide}}: [[spoiler:Norman killed his father while he was in a trance.]]
* TookALevelInBadass: [[spoiler: Norman fares much better in his second fight with Dylan, so much so that one wonders if he's been secretly attending wrestling school.]]
* SplitPersonality: Just like in the original movie, Norman seems to be developing a split personality that takes over whenever Norma is in trouble. Afterwards, Norman can't remember what he did but when he gets into these states he's always violent, refuses to talk to anyone, and very, very dangerous.
* VillainProtagonist: The entire show is based around him before he became a SerialKiller; essentially, his StartOfDarkness is the show.
* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: With a manipulative mother and a town that keeps threatening to kill him, it's hard not to feel sorry for him even if he [[spoiler:killed his father and most likely killed Miss Watson.]]

->''"What's important is that we're together. As long as we're together, nothing bad can really happen. Right, Norman?"''
The resilient, intelligent, beautiful, complicated and mercurial mother of seventeen-year-old Norman Bates. A contemporary single mother, she is emotionally complex and utterly devoted to her son, constantly juggling her own needs and some hardcore baggage while trying to create a new home in a new town for herself and Norman.
* AbsurdlyYouthfulMother: To Dylan, who she had when she was a teenager.
* AmbiguouslyEvil: She's willing to cover up murder and emotionally blackmail her sons to get what she wants, but she's also motivated by love and devotion. So far, she hasn't intentionally sought out an illegal situation.

* BerserkButton: Anytime a member of the opposite sex shows interest in Norman in front of her. Their jealousy goes both ways.
* BlondesAreEvil: Or AmbiguouslyEvil.

* BrotherSisterIncest: [[spoiler:With her older brother. It was non-consensual.]]
* DeadpanSnarker: Norma has an exasperated wit.
-->''"Who is going to book a room in the 'rape slash murder' motel?"''
* {{Determinator}}: Nothing, not a [[spoiler:rape and murder]], [[spoiler:sex slave business]] or [[spoiler:police corruption]] will stop her from 'starting over'.
* DoomedByCanon: If you're familiar with the [[Film/{{Psycho}} classic film]]'s twist...
* EvilMatriarch: Subverted, to everyone's surprise. Norma wants the best for her sons, and even though she does cross moral boundaries it's due to her deep, psychological damage as opposed to any active malice.
* IncestSubtext: With Norman, who she imagines having sex with Bradley...and that's just the tip of the terrifying, incestuous iceberg.
* KickTheSonOfABitch: [[spoiler:Keith Summers had it coming]].
* ManipulativeBitch: She isn't exactly TheChessmaster, but Norma is capable of manipulating others into doing what she wants them to with guilt trips and carefully placed lies.

->''"Can I give you some advice? You gotta cut that shit out. "Mother?" Seriously, it... it's just weird."''
Normas son by her first marriage and half-brother to Norman, Dylan is an edgy outsider in the Norma/Norman tea party. Hes a lost soul and a drifter who finds himself, by necessity, drifting back into the troubled lives of his mother and brother.
* AloofBigBrother: To Norman. Though honestly it's probably just a "played with" example since Norman really isn't looking for any closeness with him, at least at the start.
* {{Badass}}: Dylan shows himself to be very competent and skilled; he becomes the unofficial 'muscle' of the Bates family.
** He [[spoiler:kills the man who shot Ethan. With a car.]]

* [[CallingTheOldManOut Calling The Old Lady Out]]: Dylan is more than willing to call Norma out on her various manipulations and guilt trips.
* CarFu: He runs over the guy [[spoiler:who shoots Ethan]].
* ChildByRape: [[spoiler:He's the unintentional son of Norma and her brother Caleb, during Norma's teenage years, when Caleb would rape her.]]
* DeadpanSnarker: It seems that biting sarcasm runs in the family.
* TheDrifter: Dylan pretty much moved from place to place, although for the time being he's settled in White Pine Bay.
* HiddenDepths: He isn't the rebellious punk jerk he first appears to be; Dylan is actually a thoughtful and considerate young man who is very loyal.
* {{Jerkass}}: When we first meet Dylan, he's abrasive, disrespectful and outright insulting toward Norman and Norma.
** JerkWithAHeartOfGold: When the situation calls for it, Dylan is fiercely protective of his family. It becomes clear that he '''does''' love his family dearly.
* MommyIssues: Despite the distance he tries to create with Norma, Dylan can't get past his issues with his mother either.
* OnlySaneMan: Though compared to Norma and Norman, that isn't saying much.
* TheUnfavourite: He and Norma have a very difficult relationship; it's clear that she prefers the more submissive, polite Norman.
* WellDoneSonGuy: His relationship with Norma is...strained.
!!Caleb Calhoun
->'''Played By:''' Kenny Johnson
Norma's estranged brother and Norman's uncle.
* BigBrotherBully: Assumed, since he [[spoiler:sexually abused Norma.]]
* BitchInSheepsClothing: Caleb can appear affable and even banal, but underneath he's a terrible human being with a streak of sadism as [[spoiler:evidenced when Norman confronts him, and after disarming the kid Caleb needlessly kicks him when he's down.]]

->''"You and I have no connection. We're not on the same playing field. Don't ever assume that we are."''

* {{Badass}}: He successfully [[spoiler:kills the very dangerous Jake Abernathy.]] He also beats the shit out of AxCrazy Zane.

* DeadpanSnarker: Particularly when he's talking with Norma when they snark back and forth.
* DeathGlare: He's good at these.
* DirtyCop: [[spoiler:After Shelby's true nature is revealed, he covers everything up to make himself appear competent. He later arrests Kyle Miller for Miss Watson's murder and lets him get convicted despite being aware of the mounting evidence that throws Miller's 'guilt' into question.]]
* GoodIsNotNice
* ItsPersonal: He and Keith Summers were friends before his murder.
* INeverSaidItWasPoison: When questioning Norma she mentions Keith disappearing, but Romero never mentioned anything of the sort.
* {{Jerkass}}: Romero is cold and uninterested. He treats others with mild disdain or outright contempt.
** JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Possibly, given that he covers for Norma even after finding out [[spoiler:that she killed his best friend, and when he goes out of his way to protect Norma and her family from Jake Abernathy.]] His methods are certainly questionable, and he's not a friendly guy, but he seems to have good intentions.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Gives a small one to Norma when she tries to procure his help. He makes it very clear that they are not friends.
-->''"Are you trying to say that you have something on me? Is that it? Because if you did, that really wouldn't be good for you, okay? I mean I might have to burn you down to the ground, you know? Don't ever try to intimidate me. Don't walk into my office and ask me for political favors based on nothing. You and I have no connection. We're not on the same playing field.

Brewers, Carlos Gomez avoid arbitration with one-year contract
Jan 17, 2013, 6:39 PM EST
The Brewers and outfielder Carlos Gomez have avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year contract, according to Brewers senior director of media relations Mike Vassallo. Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports that he'll get $4.3 million, which is more than double the $1,962,000 he earned last year.
Gomez was arbitration-eligible for the fourth and final time this winter. The raise is well deserved, as the 27-year-old is coming off a career-year in which he batted .260/.305/.463 and established new career-highs with 19 homers, 37 stolen bases and a .768 OPS. A notorious free-swinger, he had never hit more than eight homers or posted an OPS higher than .679 in his previous five seasons in the big leagues.
Gomez began last season on the short side of a platoon with Nyjer Morgan, but he's expected to be the everyday center fielder for the Brewers in 2013. While still flawed, he should continue to be useful if the power is here to stay and he plays his usual brand of excellent defense.

Missionary daughter pranks dad with fake marriage proposal
Not only did Sarah Munafo want to keep it a secret from her dad that she was working on her LDS mission papers, but she decided to break the news to him by giving him a surprise that caused him to sweat bullets.
Munafo, 19, is studying at Brigham Young University-Idaho and had been tossing around the idea of serving a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints ever since President Thomas S. Monson announced the lowering of the missionary age requirement during her senior year of high school.
Following the announcement, Munafo began part of the application process before moving to Idaho for school. During this time, Munafo's father had consistently shared his desire for her to serve a mission.
"I'm a convert to the church, I joined when I was 18 and went on a mission, and it just was a fantastic experience for me. I always was pushing — we have a large family of five daughters and three sons — and I always pushed the missionary aspect and wanted to encourage my daughters and sons to go on missions," James Munafo said. "So with my daughters, I got excited when the age dropped."
James Munafo had shared the importance of missionary work with his children through his own conversion story, as well through discussions about the blessings he received from serving a mission in South Africa.
"I don't really know how hard it is to find the gospel and take missionary discussions, but from my dad's experience I've learned that missionary work is important," Sarah said. "His sister was actually the one taking the discussions, and he wanted to protect her from people filling her head. So he sat in on the discussions ,and he actually ended up being the one to stay with the church. So that really made me think that missionaries are important to help bring the gospel to those who haven't even heard of it."
But before Sarah made the decision to serve, her father would often check in on her thoughts regarding the topic.
"I probably teased Sarah and put a little bit of pressure on her about going on a mission, always in a playful way," James said.
Sarah retold one of her favorite mission plugs her dad made.
"My favorite line from him, I was telling my mom about the guy drama I was in and he would just say stuff like, 'Um, Sarah, it sounds like you need an 18-month break.' He would constantly say stuff like that, so it was funny," Sarah said.
But regardless of his jokes, James and Rebecca made sure Sarah knew that whatever she decided, they would support her.
"She was dating some really nice guys, and we kept telling her, 'You know, despite Dad's teasing — and you know I'm biased towards a mission — you need to find out for yourself. You need to go to your Father in Heaven,' " her dad said.
So as soon as Sarah decided that serving a mission was what she wanted to do, she decided to fool her father by not telling him about submitting her papers and lead him into believing that she was about to get engaged.
"At first I wasn't going to tell him about my mission papers just in spite of the fact that he really wanted me to go," Sarah said. "So it started out that I was just not going to tell him until I got the papers, but as it got closer, I was thinking about how at one point I might not have gone on a mission because of the possibility of getting married soon — and that that would be the best prank ever for my dad."
Soon her family, her home ward and even all of Facebook knew that Sarah's mission papers were in, except for her father. But it wasn't always easy to hide the news.

from the moment we checked in the reception and the service was excellent, although one of the rooms were not ready, we were welcomed and given coffee and stacks with compliments - Deepak

Do they call Robert Bobby? I have Alfred being born 18 Jan., 1907. I think I got this off the SSDI and it said that he died in Aug.,1970. If this is the same Alfred he was the brother to Henry (Harry Jr.) PIPES father to my father-in-law Albert W. Pipes. There were several boys born to Harry and Gertrude PIPES. There were also two girls. I would love as much information on the PIPES as you can get from Robert if he is my Robert/Bobby. You can e-mail me at email@example.com

Alice Könitz's Constructions
The name and the work of Alice Könitz wasn't familiar when we initially checked out her website. But, after poking around for a bit, we realized she was one of the many, many creatives involved with last year's production of Crescent City, a super interdisciplinary theatre piece that Alice built a set for. We hadn't check in on the artist to see what she was up to in a while but, after hearing about a new group show she's in, we thought it was a fitting time to take a look at her work as we really dig it.

I have a
SurfaceListBox that uses the
ScrollViewer.CanContentScroll="True", so the transition does not look like a continuous drag, but it is immediate, you can see how it works here: http://youtu.be/zyWmiN8GtpI.
There are two problems here: the transition is immediate; when I get to the end and swipe right (to get the item on the left) it sends me back to the first item. Now I want to add a swipe effect transition to this, like you see on most smartphones and you can see here: http://youtu.be/O9xGHRL0Zn4 that works fine both ways.
I'm using a
SurfaceListBox, but this can be made other ways, simply using WPF.
I looked around and I found some stuff in WPF, but all over-complicated for my purpose.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to do this?
*A sample project with the SurfaceListBox can be downloaded here: http://sdrv.ms/TJd3oy

NOTEBOOK: 'Everyone's eligible' for Rebels
Some of Ole Miss' football players won't play a down this season, but it won't be because they didn't make the grades. For the first time in his three-year tenure, coach Hugh Freeze announced the Rebels won't suffer from an academic casualty. Players reported to campus on Friday — the first day before the start of fall camp — and everyone's ready to go. (August 4, 2014, Page 6)
Rebels mix work, play in final local practice
Ole Miss' football team eventually got down to business Friday morning, but the Rebels had a little fun first. (December 23, 2013, Page 6)
Ole Miss falls to Mississippi St., 17-10, in OT
BLOG — The Golden Egg is going back to Starkville. (more…) (November 29, 2013)
Red-zone woes thwart Rebels' chances
Ole Miss and Missouri both created plenty of scoring chances Saturday night. The Tigers turned them into points. Ole Miss didn't. (November 25, 2013, Page 1B)
Rebels set yardage record in blowout
By the time Ole Miss' offense was finished disposing of Troy's defense, the Rebels turned in the most productive performance in program history. (November 18, 2013, Page 1B)
Rebels aren't satisifed with bare minimum
Ole Miss has already locked up a bowl berth with three games left in the regular season and has a game it should win easily this Saturday when the Rebels host Troy in their final non-conference game at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium. (November 12, 2013, Page 6)
Rebels a healthier team with Arkansas looming
The good news for the Ole Miss football team is that two straight wins, including one over a top-10 team at the time, have erased the bad taste of a midseason swoon. The bad news is that the momentum of those victories may have been halted with the season's second open date last week. (November 5, 2013, Page 6)
Ritter's 'dream' comes true against Tigers
Andrew Ritter envied Josh Lambo.
A week prior to Ole Miss' matchup with LSU, Ritter, the Rebels' senior place-kicker, watched Lambo trot out on the field with the score tied at 38 and boot a game-winning field goal as time ran out to send Texas A&M to a three-point victory over Ole Miss. (October 21, 2013, Page 1B)
Manziel rallies Aggies, again, past Rebels
For a few minutes, it looked as if Ole Miss wouldn't have to deal with Johnny Manziel. But Ole Miss did, and the reigning Heisman Trophy winner turned a game in the balance into a case of déjà vu for the Rebels. (October 14, 2013, Page 1B)
No. 1 Crimson Tide shuts down Rebels
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Different year, same result.
Alabama tailbacks T.J. Yeldon and Kenyan Drake combined to run for 220 yards and two touchdowns, and the top-ranked Crimson Tide continued their dominance over Ole Miss with a 25-0 victory over the No. 21 Rebels Saturday night at Bryant-Denny Stadium. (September 30, 2013, Page 1B)

WIFR Holiday Shopping Guide">
November 28, 2014
Retailers are predicting this will be one of the best retail seasons since 1999.
Holiday sales are expected to hit approximately $219 billion, an estimated five percent more than last season.
Across the stateline and across the nation, parking lots were full; cash registers were ringing and shopper's hands full with bags. There will be a lot more packages under the Christmas tree this year, if analysts are correct.
Some expect there'll be a lot more giving going on this year, sales for November, December and January could be up 5.5 to six percent.
On average shoppers are expected to spend upwards of $700 this season.
But despite the lines and crowds, some say Friday is not actually the biggest shopping day of the year, it's the weekend before Christmas.
Retailers are doing their part to lure customers. Many are offering deeper discounts. Some opened earlier Friday than they did last year.

CHEETAH CHEERS: The Zeitz Foundation, a nonprofit organization that funnels money into environmental projects, raised 175,000 pounds, or $226,000, in aid of the cheetah and other green projects. The foundation, founded by PPR director and Puma chairman Jochen Zeitz, held a dinner last week in London at the ZSL London Zoo in Regent's Park, where Olympic gold medalist and Zeitz Foundation ambassador Usain Bolt played host to guests including Stella McCartney, Alasdhair Willis, Ron Arad, Michael Craig-Martin and Mollie Dent-Brocklehurst.
Auction lots included Bolt's running shoes, a Vivienne Westwood Couture gown and works by artists including Isaac Julien and Chris Ofili. Richard Branson donated a surprise lot — the chance to fly to his property Necker Island and run 100 meters against Branson himself — which eventually sold for 30,000 pounds, or $48,000. The money went toward the foundation's efforts to protect habitats and ecosystems around the world and to the Zoological Society of London's efforts to conserve the cheetah, African wild dogs and the landscapes that support them.

"Glad I listened"
I chose this book because of the controversy surrounding it. I'm glad that I did. The story by Ayn Rand was well written, and the conclusions were interesting, but it was truly built on some glaringly false premises. A bit of a straw man. Still, I enjoyed it.
He's a fantastic reader.
Dagny. Sounds hot.
"A must for any thinker."
This cerebral piece of literature is at the top of my Recommend To Others list. I find the writing easy to lose oneself in, easy to follow, yet indefinitely complex, blended with incredible insight and nuance that can only come from someone knowledgeable and passionate about their writing.
This is a wonderful addition to an intelligent persons library, interested in expanding their understanding of the world. Don't buy if you're an idiot.
The paragraph from which the title comes. I won't spoil it for you, but it's when the full idea for the book comes full circle and you can continue with an even better concept of what is happening.
"Great story with incredible plot"
This was a great story with a complex plot. It is long (53 hours) but went quickly as I listen in my car. The narrator was very good and was able to keep my attention. Although the timing was set a few decades ago, I think the overall concepts are quite relevant today and applicable in any scale (global to local).
Without giving away any of the story, it develops well and builds upon itself dramatically. There are a lot of twists and turns throughout the story that keep you on the edge of your seat.
I did run into a minor snag as this was a very long audiobook. I do not sync frequently with my computer so I download multiple parts. It is very easy to lose your place as the titles on my Ipod Touch do not display enough characters to see what part is what. I had to keep a notecard with the times that each segment took as that was the only way to identify each ~8 hour segment and make sure I listen in the correct order. It would be nice if the narrator stated "Part 1 of 8" at the beginning and end of each segment.
"Excellent performance by Scott Brick"
I haven't read the print version.
I am not finished with the book but I find all of the characters excellent.
I think he captures the essence of what Ayn Rand's characters through his voice and pacing.
I don't know.
I am about 20 hours in and it is excellent.
"Fantastic Story / LONG book"
yes, when I have another three months of my life to devote to it. Great story, fantastic themes, good characters, fun surprises / plot turns. Overall, loved the book even though at times I found myself wondering if it would ever be over
I can't believe how many different voices this guy could do. I was truly impressed. You really get the idea that each voice is its own personality. He is able to make each character their own.
I loved the themes even though at times they are over embellished. You have to believe in capitalism and libertarian ideas to get through this book otherwise you'll be vomiting after the first chapter.
great book I would recommend everybody read it once. Difficult to get through at times because its so long but after it ended I found myself missing the story. Maybe thats because I spent every day of my life with this book for almost two months.
"A must read before you can vote in 2012 election"
I was blind.....
I love that this book was published in 1957 but it applies to today even more than in 1957. It is a very long book and I will read it again, and again. Because that its such a valuable story. If you think capitalism is evil, you must read. If you feel envy for the rich, if you feel that doctors should work because they love helping people, if you feel that we should be more equal...............READ this book.

I find audio books to be the way to go for me. The down time can be put to good use anywhere.
"Classic Classic Classic"
An accurate picture
Dagney Taggart because she is a strong conservative.
It raised my patriotism to an even higher level. I have never ordered people to read a book before (I even begged a few).
Ayn Rand was brilliant. She learned the hard way and it shows.
"The most amazing book I've ever "read"!"
I have been putting off reading this for more than two decades, ever since I first heard of it. I wish I hadn't. This put so much of what I've been thinking and feeling into perspective and words in ways that had eluded me. Ayn Rand's way of articulating complex thoughts through dialogue has broadened my own capabilities in rational argument and reasoning. Absorb the book in whatever way is available to you and, as you advance, check your premise.
"My favorite story! Terrible narration"
Love all Ayn Rand books. Would never download this narrator again, all characters of worth sound like they're growling!
He only shows inflection or interest in characters you don't want to hear. All my favorite charcters are bland.
"A Glimpse of Today from Yesterday"
Very good book. I almost decided against listening to it because of its length but I am glad I did and now understand why this book is so popular. Interesting story, good character development and I even thought the reader, Scott Brick, did a nice job in bringing the story to life. First and foremost, the book is meant to be philosophical but Rand's points are clearly and entertainingly made within the fictional tale. Say what you will about how much you agree or disagree with her viewpoints, you can not argue the timeliness of its assertions and it's depictions of what faces us today. I found it to be almost eerie considering the book was written in 1957.

Bugfix release v2.9.1
In parallel I submitted new versions of StitchBuddy HD / View for Apple's App Store, with native support of the new iPhone 6 / 6 Plus screen sizes, and a fix of Dropbox syncing in combination with case-sensitive file names. I expect them to be approved in about one week.
Update (2014/10/11): I just decided to withdraw both iOS versions and resubmitted v2.9.2 today: the "zoom-to-fit" (by two-finger double-tap) didn't honor device orientations, and I just fixed it. Now the design will always zoomed to the maximum size while remaining fully visible.
StitchBuddy v2.9
More details can be found in the version history on StitchBuddy's website.
StitchBuddy v2.9 is a free update for all registered users, and can be either downloaded from the corresponding Download page (OS X), or updated in Apple's App Store (iOS).

Minor bugfixes on iOS
- When a file exists on Dropbox, but not on the iPad, and its modification date is before the previous synchronization: It can be assumed that this file has already existed at the last successful synchronization, was synchronized, and afterwards was available on both sides, Dropbox and StitchBuddy. So after the last sync it was deleted on the iPad and therefore needs to be deleted on Dropbox, too.
- When a file exists on the iPad, but not on Dropbox, and its modification date is before the previous synchronization: The same case vice versa ... the file has already existed at the last successful synchronization, so it was on both sides afterwards, and was delete on Dropbox in the meantime. Therefore it is now deleted on the iPad.
In addition the sort order in the folder navigation view was corrected, which was confused by folder names beginning with numbers or special characters, and I fixed a minor issue, when the scroll position was slightly offset after leaving the app from the gallery.

Currently, I have an
Activity, with a
ListView on the top, and
LinearLayout on the bottom.
When a row in my
ListView is scrolled and the row is partially shown, it looks like this. (
LinearLayout is the one with Value wording)
However, I wish to have the following effect.
It seems that
LinearLayout adds a "glooming layer" at the bottom of the
ListView. - I am sure this is not optical illusion. :)
How I can achieve such an effect?
