Posts Tagged 'Saturday Night Fever'
Islands in the Stream
July 14, 2014 | by Bob Stanley
The elephant in the discotheque: the Bee Gees.
The Bee Gees' dominance of the charts in the disco era was above and beyond Chic, Giorgio Moroder, even Donna Summer. Their sound track to Saturday Night Fever sold thirty million copies. They were responsible for writing and producing eight of 1978's number ones, something only Lennon and McCartney in 1963/64 could rival—and John and Paul hadn't been the producers, only the writers. Even given the task of writing a song called "Grease" ("Grease is the word, it's got groove, it's got a meaning," they claimed, hoping no one would ask, "Come again?"), they came up with a classic. At one point in March they were behind five singles in the American Top 10. In 1978 they accounted for 2 percent of the entire record industry's profits. The Bee Gees were a cultural phenomenon.
Three siblings from an isolated, slightly sinister island off the coast of northwest England, already in their late twenties by the time the Fever struck—how the hell did they manage this? Pinups in the late sixties, makers of the occasional keening ballad hit in the early seventies, the Bee Gees had no real contact with the zeitgeist until, inexplicably, they had hits like "Nights on Broadway," "Stayin' Alive," "Night Fever," and the zeitgeist suddenly seemed to emanate from them. This happened because they were blending white soul, R&B, and dance music in a way that suited pretty much every club, every radio station, every American citizen in 1978. They melded black and white influences into a more satisfying whole than anyone since Elvis. Simply, they were defining pop culture in 1978.
Like ABBA, there is a well of melancholic emotion, even paranoia, in the Bee Gees' music. Take "How Deep Is Your Love" (no. 1, '77), with its warm bath of Fender Rhodes keyboards and echoed harmonies that camouflage the cries of the lyric: "We're living in a world of fools, breaking us down, when they all should let us be … How deep is your love? I really need to learn." Or "Words," with its romantic but strangely seclusionist "This world has lost its glory. Let's start a brand-new story now, my love." Or "Night Fever," their '78 number one, with its super-mellow groove and air-pumped strings masking the high anxiety of Barry Gibb's vocal; the second verse is indecipherable, nothing but a piercing wail with the odd phrase—"I can't hide!"—peeking through the cracks. It is an extraordinary record.
Total pop domination can have fierce consequences. Elvis had been packed off to the army; the Beatles had received Ku Klux Klan death threats—the Bee Gees received the mother of all backlashes, taking the full brunt of the anti-disco movement. Radio stations announced "Bee Gee–free weekends"; a comedy record called "Meaningless Songs in Very High Voices" by the HeeBeeGeeBees became a UK radio hit. Their 1979 album Spirits Having Flown had sold sixteen million copies and spawned three number-one singles ("Too Much Heaven," "Tragedy," "Love You Inside Out"); the singles from 1981's Living Eyes—"He's a Liar" and the title track—reached thirty and forty-five on the chart respectively, and didn't chart in Britain at all. Almost overnight, nobody played Bee Gees records on the radio, and pretty much nobody bought them. The biggest group in the world at the end of 1978 went into enforced retirement three years later. Could they rise again? Of course they could. Read More »
Live Long and Prosper
February 27, 2014 | by Sadie Stein
Saturday is a special day for buying and doing beautiful things. A whole day stretching ahead. It's a new lifestyle. A man. A woman. Art exhibits. Antiquing. Movies. Cocktails. Shopping. … together. You're searching for a special gown. You want something different. You find it at Regalia, a fully-lined chiffon and velvet gown with matching hot pants. You know fashion. You're a member of Saturday's Generation. —Schenectady Gazette ad for Regalia Boutique, 1971
Recently, Gothamist featured a 1976 60 Minutes story on said "Saturday's Generation"—a short-lived term for the young people who "walk and glide, trip and mince, and stride" through a Bloomingdale's of a Saturday, doing and buying beautiful things and picking each other up.
In the segment, Blair Sabol (of the Village Voice) describes Saturday's Generation in terms that, today, may as well be a foreign language, but that seem to spell out proto-yuppie. "I think of a couple, and they live on the Upper East Side, and they have chrome and glass furniture, and they've got the brie cheese, and they're wearing the Famous Amos T-shirt, and they've got the right patch jeans … that's a very heavy identity."

This program is a wonderful opportunity for children to make lasting creations for their families. They color paper plates, mugs, or trays that will be permanently transferred onto plastic ones. It is especially a great experience for those children who have a deployed parent over the Holiday Season, because it gives them a chance to create a very special Christmas gift for their parent. The ASY staff member that teaches the class said that, "seeing the excitement on the Military children's face is heartwarming when their moms say, 'Daddy will just love this and be so happy to get it.' You can just see the very special effort they put in to it knowing that their dad is going to be getting it"

Thanks b2bwild.My Suse 10.0 dvd came with an older version of ndiswrapper that is compatible with my linux kernel and I was able to load the driver without a hitch.

Is the US entering its own era of austerity?

Economists and policymakers have for years shirked the austerity measures deployed by Europe to deal with the recession. But now the U.S. is making the same type of spending cuts in a weak economy that European leaders are now distancing themselves from.

Rich People DON'T Create Jobs: 6 Myths That Have to Be Killed for Our Economy to Live
Stay up to date with the latest headlines via email.
The following article first appeared in Mother Jones. For more great content from Mother Jones, sign up for free email updates here.
When it comes to the economy, we're stuck in our own version of Groundhog Day—and this one doesn't seem to be coming to an end. America is in a deep and persistent slump, and unemployment is mired at more than 9 percent. Yet when you turn on the TV, all you hear are the same manufactured sound bites delivered in the same apocalyptic tones from the same pack of talking heads—over and over and over. Groundhog Day has turned into the eighth circle of hell.
Unfortunately, these zombie talking points aren't just wrong; they're dangerous. If we're ever going to revive the economy, we've got to tackle them head on. Here are six of the worst.
For the first four years of his presidency, Franklin Roosevelt tackled the Great Depression with inflation, easy monetary policy, and government spending. But in 1937, FDR's advisers persuaded him to reverse gears. After all, interest rates had been close to zero for years, commodity prices were climbing, and fear of inflation was on the rise.
Bust or Boost?
What happened next is now called the " Mistake of 1937" (PDF). Federal spending was cut and monetary policy was tightened up, with disastrous results: GDP immediately began to plummet, and industrial production fell by a third. Within a year everyone had had enough. In 1938 the austerity program was abandoned, and the economy started to grow again.
The truth is that stimulus worked in 1933 and it worked in 2009. So why is our economy still in such bad shape? For one, partly due to political considerations and partly because it was rushed through Congress, the 2009 stimulus wasn't as well designed as it could have been. It was also sold badly. If the bill passed, administration economists predicted, unemployment would peak at 8 percent and then start declining ( PDF). But the recession was far worse than the White House originally thought. Unemployment peaked in the double digits, and that's made the stimulus a fat target for Republican critics ever since.
But as awkward as it is to argue that things would have been worse without the stimulus—"Not as bad as it could have been!" isn't a winning slogan—well, the truth is that things would have been a lot worse without the stimulus. Everyone from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office (PDF) to private-sector forecasting firms have concluded that it increased economic growth, reduced unemployment, and put millions of people back to work. It just wasn't big enough, or long-lasting enough. Unfortunately, this has given conservatives an opening to demand tighter money and lower spending—exactly the same mistake we made in 1937.
If your credit card company offered you $30,000 interest-free to buy a car, would you take the deal? Sure you would. It's a three-way win: You replace your clunker, the auto industry keeps its assembly lines humming, and the credit card company is happy to have made a safe loan, even at no interest. Apparently, they think you're a pretty good credit risk.

Universal Adapting THE JANSON DIRECTIVE, a Novel by BOURNE Author Robert Ludlum
by Brendan Bettinger Posted 3 years, 53 days ago
The works of Robert Ludlum, when turned into movies, have grossed $945 million for Universal. And that's just the three Bourne movies. The studio is adding to the Bourne legacy in 2012 with The Bourne Legacy, but Ludlum authored a couple dozen potentially profitable stories before his death in 2001. Universal is ready to try another flavor of Ludlum, The Janson Directive. The story centers on Paul Janson, a former government agent who takes on the job of rescuing a billionaire philanthropist. The mission goes awry, and Janson finds himself marked for death on the wrong end of a "beyond salvage" order from the highest level of government. Sounds a bit like Burn Notice to me, but with more of a cat-and-mouse element since Janson is being pursued by "a young agent of astonishing ability who can anticipate and counter his every move." Actually, given the man-against-government premise and the familiar cadence of that title, this sounds like Bourne Notice. Not a complaining: depending on casting, that's a solid hook for a thriller.
John Hlavin (The Shield) will adapt the screenplay. Ben Smith and Jeffrey Weiner are producing through Captivate. Read the synopsis for The Janson Directive after the jump.

Czech Language Foundation Annual Banquet
02.05.2012 / 21:31
On April 1, the Czech Language Foundation held its annual banquet recognizing both the students of the University of Nebraska at Lincoln attending courses of Czech language and literature and those members of the community who, through their financial and other support, continue to preserve the Czech heritage in the United States.
The UNL Czech Language Program celebrates the fact that in 1907 students first started to learn Czech language and literature at UNL. The program is one of only seven in the USA offering 3 or more years of continuous instruction and one of the oldest ones. The program offers a Czech language minor after six semesters of coursework. The UNL Czech program has been a very successful one, thanks to its instructors and a number of outstanding students who have also been engaged in the cultural programs of the Czech Komensky Club. The Czech Program was started in 1907 by chancellor Andrews, after members of the Czech community and Czech legislators in the state of Nebraska asked UNL to include it in its curriculum. The Czech language instruction in Nebraska is closely tied to the history of the Czech Komensky Club, named for Jan Amos Komensky, or Comenius, the pioneer educator. Conceived by UNL students in December 1903, and officially established in 1904, it became a nursery for influential personalities in Nebraska political and cultural life. Past members include state and U.S. politicians such as Roman Hruska, Otto Kotouc, Joseph Vosoba, and Rudy Vrtiska; poets Ferdinand Musil, Jeffrey Hrbek, and Hrbek's sister the writer, politician, and educator, Dr. Sarka Hrbek. The Nebraska born Dr. Olga Stastny, recipient of the French Croix De Guerre and many other international medals for her work as a doctor and organizer of international health care, was also a member. According to the club constitution, its aim was to form a bond among Czech-Americans and to provide a model of cultural association to other university settings, where students could study Czech language, history and literature first informally, and later formally, in regular courses. The Czech language and literature program founded in 1907 replaced the informal instruction within the club with formal course work, but it continued to involve students in the Czech Program in the cultural program offered to the university.
The main persons who work hard on promoting the czech language and heritage are Layne Pierce, President of the Czech Language Foundation, Dr. Mila Saskova-Pierce, Professor of Russian and Czech at UNL, and Katarina Cermakova, Czech language instructor at UNL. However, there are many others who contribute to the good cause of the foundation. You can read more about it on the foundation website.

Wasteful sanctions, underperformance, and endogenous supervision
With Kareen Rozen
Forthcoming in The American Economic Journal: Microeconomics.
Abstract: We study optimal contracting in team settings where agents have many opportunities to shirk, task-level monitoring is needed to provide useful incentives, and it is difficult to write individual performance into formal contracts. Incentives are provided informally, using wasteful sanctions like guilt and shame, or slowed promotion. These features give rise to optimal contracts with underperformance, forgiving sanctioning schemes, and endogenous supervision structures. Agents optimally take on more assigned tasks than they intend to complete, leading to the concentration of supervisory responsibility in the hands of one or two agents.

Tom Brady is part of a commercial for Butters' Creamy Goo. He chugs it down and is ready to get back in the game. Pyeton Manning is disheartened that he and the team have to practice on a Monday. Randy wants him to be more sarcastic about it, and he obliges. Randy approves. The first cheerleader says "Go Broncis Go!" and the second one says "Whoop de fuckin' do!"
In a wet dream, Butters is greeted by a crowd of fangirls who scream at him as he drives by looking cool. This fangirl is just one of them, but she tells him she loves him. Number 24 heckles at Randy in the sidelines by saying "Lovin', not shovin'." Cee Lo sings the sarcastaball anthem, which is modeled on the American Anthem. Fan 1 is glad to see more Cee Lo on TV, fan 2 is a big fan of all his hit song.
Roger Goodell joins Dan and another commentator on commentary in the Broncos - Cleveland Browns game. Later on he brings Randy into the new sarcastaball league and names him the new coach of the Denver Broncos. Jim Rome is the host of Football Tonight, and in intervieews Randy via satellite about his victory over the Steelers. He promotes Butters' Creamy Goo during his show, but learns later that he was promoting semen from a boy, who's surely grounded for a long time. The side judge looks at the replay on a controversial call (touchdown or safety?) and declares it a field goal, in Denver's favor. The doctor who looks at Randy tells both Randy and Sharon that the sarcasm has done permanent damage to Randy's brain, so Randy does his best to warn others against sarcasm.
The photographer gets a photo-op with Randy and Commissioner Roger Goodell after Randy becomes the new Broncos' coach, while the two reporters interview Randy in the post-game conference after the Broncos' win against the Steelers.

Pain relief is something that a lot of people search for these days. Whether your pain is neurological, psychological, or physical, it seems that we all struggle with our own kinds of pain throughout our lives. The solution has been in recent years to provide drugs and medication and send you on your way. This has not been useful, by and large, as we continue to see many instances of mental illness and pain killer abuse that hurts us in ways that are hard to measure. Fortunately, we are also seeing a rise in alternative medications that may be able to offer pain relief in new ways. For example, medical marijuana strains that can be used medically are becoming more prevalent and are used more frequently, especially as more and more states make the bold move to legalize at least medical marijuana. Think about the many ways that marijuana might be able to help give a patient the kind of pain relief that he or she was used to getting from a pill. The benefits here are clear. Here are a few of the popular CBD cannabis strains that are being used to treat a variety of ailments:
- Depression, ADD, ADHD: With these kinds of mental and social disorders on the rise, it cannot be good form to constantly pop our children full of pills to treat these disorders. Instead, try medical marijuana (in oil form if for use for with children) to treat these disorders. Depression especially can be treated with the right kind of medical marijuana. G-13 Haze is a popular strain for these ailments as it provides an uplifting high for those who use it.
- Asthma Relief: Canna Sutra (named for its other positive effects) has been shown to elevate the mind as well as stimulate the mind. More pertinently, it can assist with bronchial problems and also help asthmas suffers find relief from their symptoms.
- Insomnia: While some people find that most indica strains will provide a high that puts them to sleep, Lavender is a great strain for relaxing and for treating insomnia, as is Mazar, an indica strain that gives patients aid in muscle relaxation.
- Muscle spasms and pain reduction: Crimea Blue is an interesting hybrid of Ukrainian Hash and Blueberry strains, hence the name. This strain offers a creativity-inspiring high, but has powerful medical benefits. For patients who suffer from Multiple Sclerosis, muscle spasms can be quite painful. Neuropathy that HIV/AIDS patients suffer from can also be very painful. Crimea Blue can help solve these problems.
- PTSD, some anxiety, and depression: Nigerian is jokingly referred to as "amphetaweed" because of its energizing effects. For this reason, this is a good treatment option for people who suffer from mental disorders that result in them being "in their head." With this high, patients are able to relax and enjoy the high that comes with this strain.
- Chronic Pain: Purple Kush gives patients a deep body high that can be very helpful for patients who suffer from chronic pain. This will help them keep more comfortable.

An elderly New Mexico woman died and her husband was found on a remote forest road Wednesday near Globe after the couple had been missing for several days following a visit to Chandler.
Dana Davis, 86, who left Chandler with his wife, Elizabeth, 82, on Dec. 1, was found by an Arizona Game & Fish Department officer walking along a forest road in a remote area east of Globe. His wife, Elizabeth, 82, was found deceased by Gila County Sheriff's deputies.
Dana Davis, who is recovering in a Globe hospital, told authorities that he and his wife were leaving Globe on Dec. 1 with the intent to travel on U.S. 60 to Socorro, N.M., but inadvertently ended up on U.S. 70. They tried to take a forest road to connect to U.S. 60, but after about six to 10 miles, their vehicle became disabled. At the same time, two winter storms moved in bringing snow and very cold temperatures to the area, according to a release from Chandler Police.
The Davises survived in their vehicle until Tuesday, Dec. 6, when they ran out of gas. They tried to hike back to the highway, but not long into the hike, Elizabeth Davis collapsed and died. Dana Davis told authorities he tried to revive his wife, then continued walking along the road through the night, where he took shelter under a tree.
He was found by an Arizona Game & Fish Department officer near U.S. 60 on Wednesday morning, and the Arizona Civil Air Patrol then located the Davis' vehicle.
The Gila County Sheriff's Office arrived on scene and deputies confirmed Elizabeth Davis had died.

He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls. – Proverbs 25:28 KJV
I believe this verse illustrates a clever way the Enemy gets through to us, and influences us. He tries to get us to lose our spirit, our patience, our self-control.
The walls around our hearts fall – giving him the perfect foothold to come right on over and create more havoc as he tries to influence our actions.
And I know, in the midst of child-raising, marriage, and home-management, that there are daily, sometimes hourly, opportunities for me to:
1) seek help from the Lord to choose a right spirit or 2) lose it.
Sometimes, it feels like I don't have a choice – like I just can't control it.
Not true, of course.
A few months ago, my Boy Two was in need of some new shoes. Because of some foot/ ankle issues, he needed to get properly fitted for a supportive pair. I braved the errand with all three boys.
Long story very short: he lost it in the store, shouting, and throwing a huge tantrum (and shoes) in the process. I had finally come to the place where this no longer embarassed me, but was still emotionally draining and distressing. Trying to help him get calm, I knelt down to his eye level, and spoke to him firmly but quietly. A nearby mom, watching the scene, remarked, "You have a world of patience."
I looked at her, weary, and said, "It's only because I'm in public."
On the way home, God spoke to me – clearly.
Hey, Rhonda – if you can keep a good spirit in public at the shoe store, you can do it in private at home with your children.
Not a rebuke. Just a gentle admonishment that I was in complete control of my actions, and I needed to remember this – regardless of where I was.
Here's to keeping your walls from crumbling down.

Simple Android application from scratch in IntelliJ IDEA 10.5
From IntelliJ-Wiki
IntelliJ IDEA supports development of applications to be executed on mobile phones that run under the Android operating system. Besides general coding assistance, the IDE lets you test Android applications on user-configured emulators of physical devices.
IntelliJ IDEA helps:
- Create an Android application using the New Project Wizard.
- Explore an Android application as a tree-view of files and folders.
- Create elements of an Android application and manage static content resources, such as strings, colors, etc. via tight integration between resources and the R.java file.
- Run an application.
- Configure an emulator of a physical device to run Android applications on.
This tutorial will walk you step-by-step through developing and launching a simple Android application.
- You are working with IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate edition version 10.5 or higher.
- Java SDK (JDK) and Android SDK are installed on your machine. This tutorial uses SDK 3.1.
Creating a New Project
Let's start from the very beginning and create a project for our application.
Choose File | New Project on the main menu or click the Create New Project icon on the Welcome screen (Image 1).
On the first page of the New Project wizard (Image 2), make sure that the option Create project from scratch is selected.
On the second page of the wizard (Image 3), choose the parent folder (1) to create the project in and specify the name of the project (2). As you type the project name, IntelliJ IDEA updates the path to the location of the project files accordingly. Select the Create module check box (3) and choose Android Module (4) as the module type. By default, the module will have the same name (5) as the project. The name of our project and module will be android_hello_world.
On the third page of the wizard (Image 4), choose the Create source directory option (1) and accept the default name src (2) for it. IntelliJ IDEA displays the full path to the src folder (3) for your information.
Configuring Android SDK and Java SDK
On the fourth page of the wizard (Image 5), we'll integrate IntelliJ IDEA with the Android SDK and specify the target Android platform for which the application is intended.
Previously, you could configure an Android SDK inside the Android module facet settings, while the JDK played the role of the main project/module SDK. IntelliJ IDEA 10.5 considers the Android platform itself as the project/module SDK.
Besides an Android SDK, you still need a JDK because IntelliJ IDEA uses it in compilation.
When you are creating a project for the first time after IntelliJ IDEA installation, no Android or Java SDKs are configured at the IDE level yet. This means that IntelliJ IDEA does not know the location of any Android SDK or Java SDK home directories, even if you have several of them on your computer.
To configure a Java SDK and an Android SDK at the IDE level, click the Browse button (1) next to the Android SDK drop-down list.
Click the Configure button and specify the location of the desired JDK in the Select Home Directory for JSDK dialog box that opens. When you click OK, you return to the wizard where the selected JDK is listed as the Project JDK. The specified JDK is now available at the IDE level. IntelliJ IDEA will treat this JDK as the default project JDK for any new project and will not bring you to this page anymore.
Configuring Java SDK
Let's first configure a Java SDK. In the Configure SDK dialog box that opens (Image 6), click the Add toolbar button (1) and choose JSDK (2) from the list:
In the Select Home Directory for JSDK dialog box (Image 7), specify the folder where the relevant version of Java SDK is located (1):
Upon clicking OK (2), you return to the Configure SDK dialog box (Image 8), where the selected JDK is already on the list (1):
Configuring Android SDK
Click the Add toolbar button (1) again. This time, choose Android SDK (2) from the list (Image 9):
In the Select Home Directory for Android SDK dialog box (Image 10) that opens, specify the folder where the relevant version of Android SDK is located (1):
When you click OK (2), IntelliJ IDEA asks you to specify which version of Java SDK (JDK) configured at the IDE level you want to use in this project (Image 11):
We have just configured the first JDK after IntelliJ IDEA installation, so the list contains only one item (1). Just click OK.
In the dialog box that opens (Image 12), select the Android target platform. This is the Android platform for running on which your application will be intended. Choose Android 3.1 (1):
Upon clicking OK, you return to the Configure SDK dialog box (Image 13), where both new SDK configurations – the Java SDK (1) and the Android SDK (2) – are on the list:
Click OK (3). At last we are back to the fourth page of the wizard (Image 14). As you can see, IntelliJ IDEA has detected and recognized the newly configured Android SDK (1):
Completing Project Creation
Now let's specify some additional set-up parameters for our project (Image 15).
- To have the data automatically arranged so the compiled application completely fits the selected platform, select the Create default Android application structure check box (1).
- Select the Application (2) project type. We are not going to share the module resources with other modules so there is no need to declare it as library project.
- Accept the suggested application name (3) and package (4).
- To have a sample application created, select the Create "Hello, World!" activity check box (5) and accept the suggested activity name MyActivity (6).
When you click Finish (7), IntelliJ IDEA creates a project and generates the skeleton of our application. First, let's look deeper into its structure.
Note: If you still have not configured an Android SDK yet, you can do it right now. Choose File | Project Structure on the main menu, the click the SDKs node in the Project Structure dialog box, that opens, and configure the Android SDK as described above.
Exploring an Android Application
To explore our application, we'll use the Project tool window (Image 16) that shows the following files and folders:
The .idea (1) folder contains a number of subfolders, mainly with internal IntelliJ IDEA information.
The src (2) folder contains the
MyActivity.java (3) file source code that implements the functionality of your application. The file belongs to the
com.example package.
The res (4) folder contains various visual resources.
- The layout/main.xml file (5) defines the appearance of the application constituted of resources of various types.
- The values folder (6) is intended for storing
.xmlfiles that describe resources of various types. Presently, the folder contains a
strings.xmlfile with
Stringresources definitions. As you will see from the Adding a Color section, the layout folder can also contain, for example, a descriptor of colors.
- The drawable folders contain images (7).
The gen (8) folder contains the
R.java (9) file that links the visual resources and the Java source code. As you will see from the sections below, IntelliJ IDEA supports tight integration between static resources and
R.java. As soon as any resources are added or removed, the corresponding classes and class fields in
R.java are automatically generated or removed accordingly. The
R.java file also belongs to the
com.example package.
Creating Elements of Your Application
To illustrate the mainstream Android development workflow in IntelliJ IDEA, let's expand the stub "Hello world!" application with a piece of text to explain the main goals of the application. Let's also define the color in which the explanation text will be displayed on the screen.
As you can see from Image 17, the source code of
MyActivity.java (1) just references the
layout/main.xml file (4) that defines the application appearance. To navigate to the referenced code, position the caret at the reference (2) and press Ctrl+B.
main.xml file (4) opens.
As you can see, the text to be displayed is
Hello World, MyActivity.
We need to add two things to the application layout: an explanation string and a color to display it.
Adding a String
In the
main.xml file, place the following piece of code inside the
<LinearLayout /> tag:
<TextView android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="@string/explanation" />
As you can see (Image 18), IntelliJ IDEA reports an unresolved reference and highlights it red.
But IntelliJ IDEA also suggests a quick fix for the problem: just press Alt+Enter or click the red bulb (1), then choose Create resource explanation in strings.xml option (2) from the list (Image 19):
IntelliJ IDEA opens the
strings.xml file where a new empty string definition is added to the list (Image 20).
Type the application description inside the <string /> tag, for example:
This simple Android application illustrates the mainstream Android development workflow in IntelliJ IDEA.
Image 21 illustrates the updated source code of the
strings.xml file (1). If you click the Go to resource button (2) in the left gutter area, the
R.java file (3) opens, with the new string added to the list of string resources (4) and the cursor positioned at this new resource:
Adding a Color
Now let's define the color to display the explanation string, To do that, we will create a
color resource file with a
string_color definition (Image 22).
In the project tree, right click the values folder (1) and choose New (2) | Values resource file (3) on the context menu. In the New values resource file dialog that opens, specify
color as the new file name (4).
When you click OK, IntelliJ IDEA displays the new file in the project tree (Image 23):
Now, let's add a
string_color resource definition. Open the
color.xml file in the editor by double-clicking it in the Project tool window.
Inside the
<resources /> tag, type the color definition in the form:
<color name="string_color">hexadecimal identifier of the desired color prepended with #</color>
In our example (Image 24), the hexadecimal identifier is #
As you type the color definition (1), IntelliJ IDEA shows the preview of the specified color (2) in the left gutter area:
As you might have guessed, the new resource definition is automatically reflected in
R.java (Image 25):
Now, let's apply the new color to the explanation string. In the
main.xml file, locate the following
<TextView /> item:
<TextView android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="@string/explanation" />
and add the following code inside it below
That's all with developing the sources of our application.
Running Android Application
During the project creation, IntelliJ IDEA has generated the default run configuration android_hello_world. To launch the application straight away, we only need to configure a virtual device to run it on. This device will emulate execution of the application on the target physical device.
Configuring a Virtual Android Device
From the Run/Debug Configuration (Image 26) drop-down list on the toolbar, choose Edit Configurations (1).
IntelliJ IDEA opens the Run/Debug Configurations dialog box (Image 27) that shows the details of the default android_hello_world run configuration (1).
As you can see, IntelliJ IDEA has already selected the module
hello_world(2) to apply the configuration to and the activity to launch (3).
Make sure the Deploy application check box (4) is selected and the Choose target device manually check box (5) is cleared.
Click the Browse button next to the Prefer Android Virtual Device for Deployment drop-down list (6). In the Select Android Virtual Device dialog box (Image 28) that opens. click Create:
The Create Android Virtual Device dialog box (Image 20) opens. Accept the suggested device name
MyAvd0 (1) and
Android 3.1 as the target platform (2):
The target platform must be the one appointed during the module Android SDK configuration.
When you click OK, IntelliJ IDEA brings you to the Select Android Virtual Device dialog box (Image 30), where the virtual device you've defined is already added to the list and selected.
Click OK to save the settings and return to the Run/Debug Configurations dialog box (Image 31), where the Prefer Android Virtual Device for Deployment drop-down list (1) now shows the emulator you've defined.
Complete the configuration definition settings by clicking OK.
Fortunately, you need to configure a virtual device only once, during the first application start. IntelliJ IDEA will use it by default when you start your application with the android_hello_world run configuration. Moreover, IntelliJ IDEA remembers this virtual device at the IDE level so you can use it for running other applications.
Start Application
Now that we are through with all the preliminary steps, let's launch our application.
On the toolbar (Image 32), click (2) next to the Run/Debug Configuration (1) drop-down list where the android_hello_world run configuration is already selected by default.
IntelliJ IDEA launches the configured emulator (Image 33) and deploys the Hello world application on it:
Click the lock symbol twice to have the application output displayed (Image 34):
Congratulations! You have developed and launched a simple Android application.

Students with reading problems can work around their problems by listening to recorded text (books, journals, newspapers) rather than reading it from a printed page. Most public libraries and many bookstores sell books-on-CD or other media. Electronic books or "E-books" can often be read using reading software. E-books are books that are in digital format. The format typically is in a different format for a reader with a visual impairment. Sometimes the company offering e-books also provides the reading software. E-books are also available with a narrated recording of the book. Scanning hard copy print takes time. Sources for electronic text are increasing, and more web-based textbooks are becoming available.

Thomas Sowell was born in North Carolina and grew up in Harlem. As with many others in his neighborhood, Thomas Sowell left home early and did not finish high school. The next few years were difficult ones, but eventually he joined the Marine Corps and became a photographer in the Korean War. After leaving the service, Thomas Sowell entered Harvard University, worked a part-time job as a photographer and studied the science that would become his passion and profession: economics.
After graduating magna cum laude from Harvard University (1958), Thomas Sowell went on to receive his master's in economics from Columbia University (1959) and a doctorate in economics from the University of Chicago (1968).
In the early '60s, Sowell held jobs as an economist with the Department of Labor and AT&T. But his real interest was in teaching and scholarship. In 1965, at Cornell University, Sowell began the first of many professorships. Thomas Sowell's other teaching assignments include Rutgers University, Amherst College, Brandeis University and the University of California at Los Angeles, where he taught in the early '70s and also from 1984 to 1989.
Thomas Sowell has published a large volume of writing. His dozen books, as well as numerous articles and essays, cover a wide range of topics, from classic economic theory to judicial activism, from civil rights to choosing the right college. Moreover, much of his writing is considered ground-breaking -- work that will outlive the great majority of scholarship done today.
Though Thomas Sowell had been a regular contributor to newspapers in the late '70s and early '80s, he did not begin his career as a newspaper columnist until 1984. George F. Will's writing, says Sowell, proved to him that someone could say something of substance in so short a space (750 words). And besides, writing for the general public enables him to address the heart of issues without the smoke and mirrors that so often accompany academic writing.
In 1990, he won the prestigious Francis Boyer Award, presented by The American Enterprise Institute.
Currently Thomas Sowell is a senior fellow at the Hoover Institute in Stanford, Calif.
The cold-blooded murder of two New York City policemen as they sat in their car is not only an outrage but also a wake-up call. It shows, in the most painful way, the high cost of having demagogues, politicians, mobs and the media constantly taking cheap shots at the police.
Critics and defenders of the harsh interrogation methods applied to captured terrorists can argue forever over whether those methods were "torture." But any serious discussion of a serious issue -- and surely terrorism qualifies as serious -- has to move beyond semantics and confront the ultimate question: "Compared to what alternative?"
The fiasco of "Rolling Stone" magazine's apology for an unsubstantiated claim of gang rape at a University of Virginia fraternity house -- and the instant rush to judgment of the university administration in shutting down all fraternities, when those charges were made -- should warn us about the dangers of having serious legal issues dealt with by institutions with no qualifications for that role.
This year, Christmas shopping may be an especially welcome respite from the ugly events going on across the country, as mobs take to the streets because grand juries that examined evidence reached different conclusions from those reached by mobs who made up their minds without examining that evidence.
Everyone seems to have an opinion about the tragic events in Ferguson, Missouri. But, as Daniel Patrick Moynihan used to say, "You're entitled to your own opinion but you're not entitled to your own facts."
Jonathan Gruber's several videotaped remarks about the gross deceptions that got ObamaCare passed in Congress should tell us a lot about the Obama administration. And the way that the mainstream media hesitated for days to even mention what Professor Gruber said, while they obsessed over unsubstantiated charges against Bill Cosby, should tell us a lot about the media.
Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes said there were "phrases that serve as an excuse for not thinking." One of these phrases that substitute for thought today is one that depicts the current problems of blacks in America as "a legacy of slavery."
If anyone still has any doubt about the utter cynicism of the Obama administration, a recent agreement between the federal government and the Minneapolis Public Schools should open their eyes.
Just what happened last week on election day? And what is going to happen in the years ahead?
One of the biggest voter frauds may be the idea promoted by Attorney General Eric Holder and others that there is no voter fraud, that laws requiring voters to have a photo identification are just attempts to suppress black voting.
In the Congressional elections this year, many Democrats are running away from Barack Obama, but they can't hide their record of voting for Obama's agenda more than 90 percent of the time.
Just what is predatory lending? It is lending that charges a higher interest rate than people like those at the New York Times approve of. According to such thinking -- or lack of thinking -- the answer is to have the government set an interest rate ceiling at a level that will be acceptable to third parties like the New York Times.
Goddard College's recent decision to have its students addressed from prison by a convicted cop killer is just one of many unbelievably irresponsible self-indulgences by "educators" in our schools and colleges.
Speaker of the House Tip O'Neill once said, "All politics is local." That may have been true in Tip O'Neill's day, but some elections are decisively on national issues -- and the Congressional elections this year are overwhelmingly national, just as the elections of 1860 were dominated by one national issue, namely slavery.
The Ebola outbreak in West Africa is both a danger in itself and a wake-up call for Americans -- about President Obama, about the institutions of this country and, most important, about ourselves.
What a non-judgmental society amounts to is that common decency is optional -- which means that decency is likely to become less common.
Some pundits are saying that President Obama has been floundering in his response to the ISIS crisis because public opinion polls show most Americans don't want another war.
Anyone who knows what anxiety, and sometimes anguish, parents go through when they have a child who is still not talking at age two, three or even four, can appreciate what a blessing it can be to have someone who can tell them what to do -- and what not to do.
While we talk about democracy and equal rights, we seem increasingly to let both private and government decisions be determined by mob rule. There is nothing democratic about mob rule. It means that some people's votes are to be overruled by other people's disruptions, harassments and threats.
Those people who say that President Obama has no clear vision and no clear strategy for dealing with the ISIS terrorists in the Middle East may be mistaken. It seems to me that he has a very clear and very consistent strategy. And a vision behind that strategy.

What Is Murder?
Many people think murder is any killing of another person. Under the law, though, murder must involve:
- Direct action(s) which causes a person's death. Some states include fetuses when defining "person". Killing a pregnant woman will thus count as two murders.
- Malicious intent – the defendant must, at the time of the killing, wish to severely injury and/or end another person's life.
- The killing was unlawful.
Gradations of Murder (vary by state)
- First Degree Murder - generally, a killing which is deliberate and premeditated or in conjunction with a felony
- Many states consider the killing a First Degree Murder where:
- There is movement of the victim (kidnapping)
- The defendant was lying in wait, usually with the intent to ambush the victim
- There is a death of a police officer
- The killing has taken place during an inherently dangerous felony (Felony Murder)
- Torture has taken place
- Many states consider the killing a First Degree Murder where:
- Second Degree Murder - a non-premeditated killing resulting from an assault where death was a distinct possibility
- Second Degree Murder can be found where there was:
- Heat of passion
- A sudden fight or quarrel
- Second Degree Murder can be found where there was:
What Is The Difference Between Murder and Manslaughter?
Manslaughter is defined as the killing of another human being without malicious intent. However, states will often have different distinctions between the degrees of murder and manslaughter.
This means that a second degree murder in one state may be a voluntary manslaughter in another. California, for example, considers a killing through the heat of passion as manslaughter rather than murder.
The main difference between murder and manslaughter though, intention, remains the same in all states.
Are There Any Legal Defenses To a Murder Charge?
The best way to defeat a murder charge is to negate one of the elements of murder: act and intent. Obviously, if a defendant can prove that there is no evidence he committed the act, then he would be clear of any murder or manslaughter charges.
If, however, the defendant is linked to the act, then it may still be possible to reduce a murder charge by proving that there was no intent. Lowering the crime would reduce the sentence. A list of possible defenses to reduce the intent element can be found here.
What Is the Penalty For Murder?
The penalty for murder will differ based upon the degree and from state to state. Murder sentencing is subject to "enhancements" which may increase or decrease the punishment. Murder with a deadly weapon, for example, can increase the punishment while youth may work in the defendant's favor.
In general, first degree murder sentencing ranges from death to life imprisonment without parole.
Second degree murder entails imprisonment with parole. The exact number of years will depend on the state, the judge and any enhancements included.
What Can You Do if Accused of Murder?
It is important to note that different states have different systems of gradation each with its own subtleties. Immediately consult a criminal defense lawyer familiar with your particular state's criminal laws regarding your rights and defenses.
What Can You Do if Someone You Know or a Loved One Has Been Murdered?
Contact the police immediately. If there is sufficient evidence, the police will forward the case to the District Attorney's office to prosecute the suspect who murdered the person. If you are interested in bringing a civil suit against the person, learn more at Wrongful Death.

There is a great man who makes every man feel small. But the real great man is the man who makes every man feel great.Gilbert Keith Chesterton
He (Martin Luther King) was very pure in mind and heart. He was a lover: a lover not only of his race but a lover of all mankind. His heart was so broad, so great, so magnanimous, and this gave him a most sincere feeling of absolute oneness with everyone. This is what made him so divinely great.Sri Chinmoy
The character of greatness must be measured in two ways, else the measurement is flawed. First, and by far most popular of all, is by one's ability to succeed in times of trial where others may fail. But of no less importance, and perhaps foundational to any form of greatness, is one's willingness to start over in spite of failure, when success seems farthest away.Guy Finley
In America, they want you to accomplish these great feats, to pull off these David Copperfield-type stunts. You want me to be great, but you don't ever want me to say I'm great?Kanye West

Ok, I just installed a rearview mirror today in the Z. It took about 2 hours, because I took my time taking everything apart and running the wires. It was a very easy install and was very inexpensive. Camera + Local pickup from ebay distributor = $45. I don't feel like making a write-up so if anyone plans to this or has any questions feel free to PM me. BTW, it is wired to a reverse signal so it automatically comes on when I put the car in reverse. Here are a couple pics.
|yeah, maybe I just got one from a bad batch...but it didn't look too bad, so if they all matched I would've been fine with it

Title: Awesome costume!
Date: Mar 23, 2010
I bought this costume in late 2008 and its probably the best costume I've ever bought, which is saying a lot because I go to conventions and I also Cosplay. But onto the review. The only flaws were; I'm relatively short and I wear a size medium, therefore I got this in medium and when I first got it it was /really/ long on me as it's probably intended for taller people. I had a seamstress hem it for me and then it was fine. The tiara also is very flimsy and it broke off the headband and I couldn't find it, therefore I bought a better crown. The petticoats bottom boning, I think its called, also poked a hole in the fabric around it and it began to stick out. I had to have the bottom of that completely redone and it was a bit expensive but otherwise those were the only issues. This costume, otherwise, is beautiful! I've worn it to quite a few conventions and its really durable and its held up fine. If you don't have small arms, you might find the sleeve to be a bit tight around the upper arm but its not that big of a deal. All in all I recommend this to anybody looking for a costume of theater quality~ <3 I personally love it. I wouldn't buy this just for Halloween wear though, its much too nice for that.
