Developing, running and packaging AIR mobile applications for Android
From IntelliJ-Wiki
This tutorial walks you through the main tasks related to developing AIR mobile applications for Android devices in IntelliJ IDEA:
- We start by preparing for AIR mobile application development. This includes enabling the Flash/Flex Support plugin, registering a Flex SDK in IntelliJ IDEA and creating a project with a Flash module. The resulting project infrastructure is briefly discussed along with the features available "out-of-the-box" (sections Exploring the project structure and Running the sample application).
- Then, we develop a simple AIR mobile application showing you some of the coding techniques and coding assistance features.
- Discussed separately is a way of creating a template for an AIR application descriptor.
- We proceed by preparing run configurations and then running the application, first using an emulator and then a real Android mobile device.
- We complete the tutorial by creating a distribution-ready Android application package and exploring the project output.
Before you start
- Download and install the latest version of Apache Flex Software Development Kit (SDK). (You need a Flex SDK for producing Adobe Flash Player, Adobe AIR and AIR mobile-oriented Flex applications.)
- Download and install the latest version of Adobe AIR SDK.
- Copy all the contents of the AIR SDK installation folder into the Flex SDK installation folder. (Generally, a Flex SDK includes an AIR SDK as its part. Depending on a version, however, a Flex SDK may be incomplete or outdated in its AIR part. That is, not all of the files present in the latest AIR SDK version may be included, certain files may be out-of-the-date, etc. To avoid related problems, it's worth "updating" your Flex SDK using the AIR SDK as a source.)
For Mac OS X users: Don't use the Finder for copying. Instead, open the Terminal window and run the following command:
ditto <path_to_air_sdk_installation_folder> <path_to_flex_sdk_installation_folder>
(There are also other commands for performing the same operation, see Merging directories on Mac OS X.)
- Get an Android 2.2+ mobile device (e.g. a phone) to be able to run a sample application on it. Besides, you can view here the addition article that can help you.
Making sure that the Flash/Flex Support plugin is enabled
IntelliJ IDEA's support of Flash and related technologies (AIR, AIR mobile) is based on the Flash/Flex Support plugin. So, the first thing to do is to make sure that this plugin is enabled:
1. Open the Settings dialog (e.g. by pressing CTRL+ALT+S).
2. In the left-hand pane of the dialog, under IDE Settings, select Plugins (1 on the picture below).
3. On the Plugins page that opens in the right-hand part of the dialog, type
fl in the search box (2). As a result, only the plugins whose names and descriptions contain fl are shown in the list.
Make sure that the check box next to Flash/Flex Support is selected (3).
4. Click OK (4).
5. If suggested, restart IntelliJ IDEA.
(For more information on working with plugins, see Managing Plugins in IntelliJ IDEA Help.)
Specifying a Flex SDK and adding documentation URL
IntelliJ IDEA should be aware of your Flex SDK to be able to use it. To specify the Flex SDK in the IDE:
1. Open the Project Structure dialog (e.g. CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+S).
2. In the leftmost pane, under Platform Settings, select SDKs (1). Above the pane to the right, click (2) and select Flex/AIR SDK (3).
3. In the Select Home Directory for Flex SDK dialog that opens, select the directory in which you have the desired Flex SDK installed (1).
Click OK (2) or press ENTER.
The specified Flex SDK is added to IntelliJ IDEA.
4. Though this is optional, add the URL of online Flex SDK documentation to the SDK configuration. (Later, we'll show how to use this documentation when working with your code.)
To specify the documentation URL, select the Documentation Paths tab (1) and click (2) (alternatively, press ALT+S).
The Specify Documentation URL dialog that opens already contains the URL that you want.
So, just click OK or press ENTER to accept the specified URL and close the dialog.
The URL is shown on the Documentation Paths tab.
5. At this step, configuring the Flex SDK is complete. Click OK in the Project Structure dialog.
(For more information on working with SDKs, see SDK and SDKs in IntelliJ IDEA Help.)
Creating a project
Any new development in IntelliJ IDEA starts with creating a project. (To find out why a project is needed, see Project in IntelliJ IDEA Help.)
So now we are going to create a project suitable for AIR mobile application development, that is, a project with a Flash module.
To create such a project:
1. If no project is currently open in IntelliJ IDEA, click Create New Project on the Welcome screen. Otherwise, select New Project from the File menu.
As a result, the New Project wizard opens.
2. In the left-hand pane, select Flash Module (1).
3. In the right-hand part of the page, in the Project name field, type the name of your new project (e.g.
HelloWorld) (2).
4. Click Next (3).
On the next page of the wizard, specify initial setting for your new Flash module:
5. Select Mobile from the Target platform list (1). (The application that we are going to develop is intended for the AIR mobile platform).
6. Clear the iOS check box (2). (This disables generating the output for iOS devices. When the project is created, you'll be able to change this setting if necessary.)
Note that the Create sample app option is selected. IntelliJ IDEA, will create a sample application as part of the project creation process. We'll use this application for showing certain IntelliJ IDEA features and also as the basis for our own application development.
7. Click Finish to complete the wizard (3).
Wait while IntelliJ IDEA is creating the necessary project structures. When this process is complete, you can see the structure of your new project in the Project tool window (in the left-hand part of the workspace). At the same time, the file
HelloWorld.mxml which represents the sample application opens in the editor (in the right-hand part of the workspace).
Exploring the project structure
Let's take a quick look at the project structure.
There are two top-level nodes in this structure:
- HelloWorld. This node represents your Flash module. The
.ideafolder and the file
HelloWorld.imlinside are used to store configuration data for your project and module respectively. The folder
srcis for your source code. At the moment, this folder contains only one file, the main sample application file
- External Libraries. This is a category that represents all the "external" resources necessary for your development work. Currently in this category are the
.swcfiles that make up your Flex SDK.
(For more information on tool windows in general and the Project tool window in particular, see IntelliJ IDEA Tool Windows and Project Tool Window in IntelliJ IDEA Help.)
Running the sample application
Applications in IntelliJ IDEA are run according to what is called run/debug configurations. Such configurations, generally, should be created prior to running an application. (For more information, see Running, Debugging and Testing and Running and Debugging ActionScript and Flex Applications in IntelliJ IDEA Help.)
In our case, however, we already have one run configuration. When creating a Flash module, we specified that we'd like the sample application to be created. So, IntelliJ IDEA has created
HelloWorld.mxml containing the application source code and also a run configuration for running this application.
Let's take a quick look at this run configuration.
Accessing run configuration settings
One of the possible ways to access run configuration settings is by using the main toolbar. There is an area there containing controls related to running applications. These include the run/debug configuration selector and icons for running applications in various modes.
The configuration selector, obviously, lets you select a run/debug configuration that you want to be used. It also lets you access the run/debug configuration settings. To open these settings, select Edit Configurations.
The Run/Debug Configurations dialog opens showing the settings for the run configuration HelloWorld.
Exploring the run configuration settings
The Run/Debug Configurations dialog, at the moment, looks similar to this:
As you can see:
- The run configuration has a build configuration associated with it (shown in the Build configuration field). (See the discussion of build configurations in IntelliJ IDEA Help.)
- The application is going to be run using an emulator of an Android device (the Emulator option is selected).
- An auto-generated application descriptor will be used (as set for Android: generated in the App descriptor field means as specified for Android in the associated build configuration. Later, we'll see that the use of auto-generated application descriptor is currently specified in the corresponding build configuration).
- Prior to running, IntelliJ IDEA will automatically build the application (the Before Launch task list includes the Make option).
(To find out more about the settings in this dialog, use the Help button (alternatively, F1). This will open the dialog description in IntelliJ IDEA Help.)
We are going to use the run configuration HelloWorld as is and won't make any changes to it. Click OK to close the dialog.
Studying the source code. Using online documentation
To find out what to expect when running the sample application, let's take a look at its source code (
The source code is very simple, and you can, possibly, guess at a glance what it does. Even so, we suggest that you make use of the context-sensitive online documentation to study the code. Though this might be unnecessary in this particular case, you may find this ability very useful in other circumstances.
(When configuring the Flex SDK we specified the documentation URL. So, the online documentation is only a couple of clicks away from you now.)
Place the cursor within
ViewNavigatorApplication and press SHIFT+F1. The description of the
ViewNavigatorApplication class opens in your default Web browser. Read more the description and then switch back to IntelliJ IDEA.
Repeat this procedure for
click and
popToFirstView(). Finally, you'll know that there is one screen (view) in the application that contains the Home button which doesn't really do anything useful.
Let's now see that this is so by running the application.
(As an alternative to SHIFT+F1, you can also use CTRL+Q. In this case, the documentation extracted from the Flex SDK sources will be shown. For more information on working with documentation, see Viewing Reference Information in IntelliJ IDEA Help.)
Running the application
1. To run the application, click on the toolbar. (Alternatively, press SHIFT+F10).
As a result, the Run tool window opens at the bottom of the screen. This tool window is responsible for displaying all the output from executed run configurations. (For more information, see Run Tool Window in IntelliJ IDEA Help.)
At the moment, the tool window contains only the command line IntelliJ IDEA used to run the application, including all options and arguments.
After a while, the emulator window opens with the sample application running in it.
2. You can give the Home button a couple of clicks to see that it reacts somehow. There's nothing more you can do with the application at the moment, so close the emulator window.
The Run tool window responds by outputting Process finished with exit code 0 (meaning that the application has been successfully stopped.)
3. Close the Run tool window by clicking . (If you don't see this icon, point to the leftmost first.)
To complete this discussion, there are more options for running and debugging applications in the Run menu.
The options for running applications and for working with run/debug configurations, if appropriate, are also present as context menu commands in the Project tool window and the editor.
Expanding the application
Now we are going to expand the sample application to show some of the coding assistance features.
The application we are aiming at will contain two screens (views). The first of the screens, the Home screen, will contain the Say Hello button. Tapping this button will display the second of the screens, the Hello screen. This screen will show the text Hello, World! and contain the Back button. Tapping Back will bring you back onto the first of the screens.
The application file structure and code
The application in its final state will include three
.mxml files.
HelloWorld.mxml (which already exists) will just define the initial application view. Here is what it will look like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <s:ViewNavigatorApplication xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009" xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" firstView="views.HomeView"> </s:ViewNavigatorApplication>
The remaining two files (
HomeView.mxml and
HelloView.mxml) which we'll create in the
views package will implement the application views. (The
views package doesn't yet exist and we'll create it as well.) Here is the source code for these files:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <s:View xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009" xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" title="Home"> <s:VGroup width="100%" height="100%" verticalAlign="middle" horizontalAlign="center"> <s:Button label="Say Hello" click="navigator.pushView(HelloView)"/> </s:VGroup> </s:View>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <s:View xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009" xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" title="Hello"> <s:VGroup width="100%" height="100%" verticalAlign="middle" horizontalAlign="center"> <s:Label text="Hello, World!"/> <s:Button label="Back" click="navigator.popView()"/> </s:VGroup> </s:View>
Modifying HelloWorld.mxml. Creating views.HomeView.mxml from its usage
1. First of all, let's get rid of unnecessary code in
HelloWorld.mxml, namely:
<s:navigationContent> <s:Button label="Home" click="navigator.popToFirstView()"/> </s:navigationContent>
To do that, select the corresponding code lines and press DELETE.
2. Now place the cursor between
spark" and
> and press ENTER to start a new line.
3. Type
f and select firstView from the suggestion list. (You can use the UP and DOWN arrow keys for moving within the list and ENTER for selecting a highlighted item).
4. Between the quotation marks (that are added automatically), type
Note that
views and
HomeView are red. This is because IntelliJ IDEA doesn't know what these are and marks them as an error. (In fact, the referenced view
HomeView and the package
views don't exist.)
Also note a light bulb at the beginning of the line. This indicates that there is a quick fix available for the current context.
5. To access the quick fix list, click the light bulb or press ALT+ENTER.
6. Select Create View 'HomeView' (ENTER).
7. In the dialog that opens, confirm that you want to create the package
views by clicking Yes. (Alternatively, press ENTER).
As a result, the package
views and the file
HomeView.mxml are created.
At the same time the new file (
HomeView.mxml) opens in the editor.
Before we start editing
HomeView.mxml, let's summarize what we've just seen.
You don't need to create entities such as packages, classes, etc. prior to referencing them in your code. Instead, you can reference the entities that don't yet exist and then use a corresponding quick fix to create the referenced entities.
(For more information on quick fixes and related features, see Intention Actions in IntelliJ IDEA Help.)
Writing code for HomeView.mxml
Let's start modifying the file by adding the title attribute to
1. Place the cursor between
spark" and
> and press ENTER to start a new line.
2. Type
ti and select title.
3. Between the quotation marks, type
4. Go to the end of the current line (press END) and press ENTER to start a new line.
What's left to be added is this:
<s:VGroup width="100%" height="100%" verticalAlign="middle" horizontalAlign="center"> <s:Button label="Say Hello" click="navigator.pushView(HelloView)"/> </s:VGroup>
The quickest way to add this fragment is by moving from the "inside outward", that is, by adding
<s:Button> first and then "wrapping" it in
5. Type
<s:B and select s:Button.
6. Type
/ to close the tag.
7. Place the cursor between
Button and
/. Type space, then
l and select label.
8. Between the quotation marks, type
Say Hello.
9. In a similar way, add the remaining attribute and its value (
Note that
HelloView is red because a non-existing view is referenced. Now we are going to use a quick fix to create this view (the way we did to create
Creating HelloView.mxml
1. Press ALT+ENTER and select Create View 'HelloView'.
2. In the dialog that opens, click OK to confirm that you want to create the view in the package
The file
HelloWorld.mxml is created and opened in the editor.
Completing the code for HomeView.mxml. Using the Surround With operation
1. Go back to editing
HomeView.mxml. (To switch between the editor tabs using the keyboard, press ALT+LEFT ARROW or ALT+RIGHT ARROW.)
2. Highlight
<s:Button label="Say Hello" click="navigator.pushView(HelloView)"/> and select Surround With from the Code menu (alternatively, press CTRL+ALT+T).
3. In the Surround With menu, select Surround with <tag></tag>.
A pair of tags (
<>...</>) is added that surrounds the
<s:Button> element.
4. Within the opening tag, type
s:VGroup width="100%" height="100%" verticalAlign="middle" horizontalAlign="center".
5. When the opening
<s:VGroup> is completed, press ESCAPE.
6. Delete the empty lines. (You can use CTRL+Y to delete a current line.)
Developing the code for HelloView.mxml
Because the code in
HelloView.mxml is going to be similar to that in
HomeView.mxml, let's start by copying all the contents of
HomeView.mxml into
HelloView.mxml and then make the necessary changes:
1. To select all the contents of
HomeView.mxml, press CTRL+A. Then, to copy the selected contents to the clipboard, press CTRL+C.
2. To switch to
HelloView.mxml, press ALT+RIGHT ARROW.
3. Now to replace the contents of the file with the contents of the clipboard, press CTRL+A and then press CTRL+V.
4. Change the value of the
title attribute from
Home to
5. Start a new line after the
<s:VGroup> opening tag.
6. Using code completion, type
<s:Label text="Hello, World!"/>.
7. Within
<s:Button .../>, change the label from
Say Hello to
Back, and replace
pushView(HelloView) with
The source code of the overall application is now ready.
We could run the application right away the way we did before but let's first have a look at a bit different thing, an AIR application descriptor template that you are most likely to deal with in your development work.
Creating an AIR application descriptor template
An auto-generated application descriptor (see a definition of the application descriptor in Adobe AIR documentation) was created when we ran Hello World for the first time. Though that let us run the application, this is, basically, the only good thing about an auto-generated descriptor.
In fact, you have very limited control over that kind of descriptor. In practice, you are more likely to be using a descriptor template which can be flexibly adjusted to your needs. In this section, we'll show how to create such a template and briefly discuss its contents.
Functions for creating the descriptor templates can be found in the UI for working with Flash build configurations. (See the discussion of build configurations in IntelliJ IDEA Help.) So now we are going to take a look at this UI and create the template.
Opening build configuration settings
Build configurations for Flash modules are managed in the Project Structure dialog. To open this dialog, generally, you can use File | Project Structure, the toolbar icon , or CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+S. However, for accessing build configurations, there is a shortcut on the Status bar. Let's use this shortcut:
In the right-hand part of the Status bar, click HelloWorld (app) (1) and select Project Structure (2).
The build configuration settings are shown in the Project Structure dialog.
Note where in the Project Structure dialog the build configurations are located. (They appear as elements of a Flash module.)
At the moment, there is one (Flash) module HelloWorld and one build configuration with the same name. (This build configuration was created automatically when creating our Flash module.)
The build configuration settings are shown in the right-hand part of the dialog, on the Build Configuration page.
Exploring general build configuration settings
The settings on the General tab all seem to be clear. (To see their explanations, click the Help button or press F1.)
Basically, there is only one thing that we'd like you to note. This is where the module output is generated and stored (the Output folder field). By default, this is
Creating the descriptor template
1. The settings and functions related to Android (including those for creating the application descriptor template) are on the Android tab. So, click this tab (1).
Note that at the moment an auto-generated application descriptor is used (the Generated option is selected under Application descriptor).
Now, to create the template:
2. Under Application descriptor, select Custom Template (2) and click Create (3).
The Create AIR Descriptor Template dialog opens. Note the template file name and location. If interested, also take a look at other settings. These will affect the initial template contents and may be edited manually when the template has been created. (As in most of the cases, you can use the Help button or F1 for opening the dialog description.)
3. Click Create.
4. Click OK in the Project Structure dialog.
As a result, the template file is created which you can see in the Project tool window.
Let's take a quick look at the template contents.
Exploring the descriptor template
Open the template file in the editor. To do that, select the template file in the Project tool window and press F4.
Almost all that the template contains goes to the descriptor file as is. (The descriptor is generated in the output folder each time the module is built.)
The only variable part in the template is the
<content> element (within
When generating the descriptor, the text SWF file name is set automatically at compile time is replaced with the name and extension (
.swf) of the application file.
So, to control the descriptor contents, you will, generally, comment and uncomment elements, change their content, add new elements and so on.
(To uncomment a commented element, place the cursor within the element and select Code | Comment with Block Comments or press CTRL+SHIFT+SLASH. In the same way you can comment an element. However, in this case you should highlight the element first.)
Preparing run configurations
Now we are going to:
- See that the use of the template-based descriptor has been automatically set in the run configuration for the emulator (HelloWorld).
- Create a configuration for running the application on a real Android device.
Checking the existing configuration
Open the HelloWorld run configuration as we did before.
Note the setting in the App descriptor (emulator) field. Now, it's as set for Android: HelloWorld-app.xml (it was as set for Android: generated before and now changed because we changed the descriptor settings in the associated build configuration HelloWorld (app)).
This is fine, so no changes are necessary in this run configuration.
Creating a run configuration for an Android device
To create a run configuration for an Android device, we will create a copy of the existing configuration (HelloWorld) and then adjust the settings. (The alternative way is to create a run configuration from scratch by using ).
1. Click Copy Configuration (1) (CTRL+D). As a result, a copy of the run configuration with the name HelloWorld (1) is created.
2. Let's change the name to HelloWorldD (D for Device) to distinguish this configuration from the one intended for the emulator (2).
3. Under Run on, select Android device (3).
No other changes in this run configuration are needed.
4. Click OK in the Run/Debug Configurations dialog to save the changes made (4).
Running the application on the emulator
To run the application using the emulator-oriented run configuration:
1. Select the HelloWorld run configuration.
The result is similar to that we had when running the sample application for the first time. What is now different is the application behavior.
3. Play with the application in the emulator for a little while, and then close the emulator window.
4. Close the Run tool window.
Running the application on an Android device
Before running the application we have to prepare the device and, on Windows, possibly, also to install a USB device driver.
Preparing the device
To prepare the device, you should set the default USB connection type to Charge only and also turn USB debugging on.
To set the USB connection type:
1. Press the menu button and tap Settings.
2. On the Settings screen, tap Connect to PC.
3. On the USB connection type screen, tap Default connection type and then tap Charge only.
Now to turn USB debugging on:
1. Go back to the Settings screen and tap Applications.
2. On the Applications screen, tap Development.
3. On the Development screen, select the USB debugging check box. Optionally, just for convenience, select Stay awake (Screen will never sleep while charging).
Connect the device to your PC using the USB cable.
Installing the device driver on Windows
For a Windows PC to communicate with an Android device, the corresponding device driver is needed. Sometimes, the driver is installed automatically as soon as you connect the device to your PC. If this doesn't happen, you can install the driver included in your Flex SDK (the corresponding drivers are located in
Just in case, here are the instructions (if you know how to install the driver, skip the instructions and proceed to running the application).
1. Click Start (1), right-click Computer (2) and select Manage (3).
2. In the Computer Management dialog, under Computer Management (Local), select Device Manager (1).
3. In the second-from-the-left pane find Android Phone (it may be within the Other devices category). Right-click it (2) and select Update Driver Software (3).
The Update Driver Software wizard opens.
4. Click Browse my computer for driver software.
5. In the Browse For Folder dialog, select the folder that contains the necessary drivers (1) (
<flex_sdk_installation_folder>\install\android\usb_drivers) and click OK (2).
6. In the Update Driver Software wizard, under Search for driver software in this location, select Include subfolders (1) and click Next (2).
7. If a Windows security warning is displayed that looks similar to this:
click Install this driver software anyway.
The driver is being installed. When this process is complete, the following page of the wizard is displayed:
8. Click Close.
In the Computer Management dialog, Android Composite ADB Interface (ADB stands for Android Debug Bridge) is shown under Android Phone which means that the driver has been successfully installed, and your PC can now properly communicate with your Android device.
9. Close the Computer Management dialog.
Running the application
Now, to run the application:
1. Select the run configuration HelloWorldD.
A set of messages is displayed describing the application installation process (creating an Android package, checking for the previous installed version of the application and uninstalling it, if found, and so on). When the installation process is complete, the following is shown in the lower-left corner of the workspace:
At the same time, the starting screen of the application is shown on your device.
3. To check if everything is fine with the application, tap Say Hello and then Back when the second of the screens is shown.
Uninstalling the application (optional)
Optionally, uninstall the application:
1. Go to Settings | Applications | Manage applications.
2. Tap HelloWorld, and then tap Uninstall. Confirm your intention to uninstall the application by tapping OK.
Packaging the application
Once your AIR mobile Android application is tested and ready, you can package it for distribution. This is how you do that in IntelliJ IDEA:
1. Select Package AIR Application from the Build menu.
2. In the Package AIR Application dialog that opens, select the necessary options for your Android package and click Package. (Click Help (F1) to see a detailed description of this dialog.)
Wait while IntelliJ IDEA is packaging your application. When the process is complete, the following message appears in the upper-right part of your workspace:
Exploring the output folder
To open the output folder in your file manager (e.g. Windows Explorer), click the HelloWorld.apk link under AIR application created (see the picture above). As a result, you may see something similar to this:
By now, the output folder (
<project_folder>\out\production\<module_name>) contains the following files:
HelloWorld.apkis your Android application package.
HelloWorld.swfis your application file.
HelloWorld-app.xmlis your template-based AIR application descriptor.
At this step our exercises are complete, and we hope that you now have a general idea of how to develop AIR mobile applications in IntelliJ IDEA. Special thanks to the app development company for assistance.

Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.
—Mahatma Gandhi
Like most private institutions, Concordia University, St. Paul (Minnesota) is acutely aware that sticker price is a big hurdle in today's college marketplace—and that the hurdle has become more like an obstacle for families in recent years.
"Six years ago, we conducted price sensitivity research and found that people were making decisions in their college search based on their assumptions that Concordia was too expensive," says Kristin Vogel, director of undergraduate admissions. Even though the majority of Concordia students receive substantial discounts on their tuition, too many prospects never even made it to the stage when they could discover the reality of what their net cost would be, because they were stopped by the perception of unaffordability created by Concordia's sticker price.
When the University repeated the same study a year ago, the results showed the gap (between what prospective students expected they would need to pay and what their actual net cost would be) was even wider.
"Every year it was a bigger and bigger challenge for us to get those individuals to even consider us," says Eric LaMott, senior vice president and chief operating officer. "The high discount wasn't fixing the problem, because they didn't even look."
So Concordia's leadership decided to do something that would bring families' price assumptions closer to reality: It approved a $10,000 tuition reduction for all new and returning undergraduate students beginning in fall of 2013. This 33 percent drop, from $29,700 to $19,700, effectively "reset" tuition to what it was a decade ago—and in the process, reset families' perceptions of whether or not they could afford Concordia.
Vogel explains that because the University has had a history of being fiscally conservative, steady revenue streams from degree-completion and graduate programs, and solid enrollment numbers for its traditional undergraduate programs, "we had the operating capacity to move from a high-tuition/high-discount model to a low-tuition/low-discount model without sacrificing the quality of education or reducing any programs and services."
Since institutional scholarship and grant amounts will be reduced along with tuition, most students who qualify for need- and merit-based financial aid will find their net cost only slightly improved. But while the reality of actual price changes little for these students, Concordia is betting that changed perceptions will remove an obstacle to finding out about actual price.
Meanwhile, families with higher income can potentially experience a significant drop in their out-of-pocket cost due to the tuition reset—creating more willingness to pay for Concordia's private Christian college education among those who have the ability to pay.
The reaction to Concordia's tuition reset announcement has been exceedingly positive, according to Vogel. "Current students and alumni both are very proud of their institution for responding to the marketplace," she says. "We are excited about talking to more prospective students who might find Concordia isn't just their 'best fit' college, but their 'financial first choice,' too."

openmtbaustria new autorouting
Attention, currently openmtbmap austria has a different routing setup. This does not really like it's supposed too, and goes far too long ways to reach the destination. On the other hand it's possible to route over much larger distances now. I'll have to find a compromise. I will update openmtbmapaustria several times during the day (whenever I feel significant improvements have been made), so results may vary….

Many children love historical fiction, and teachers and parents like it because it helps teach a period in history that's in the curriculum. I chose to write a historical fiction novel because of my background as a teacher and of how much I loved to read novels like Little House on the Prairie and Sarah, Plain and Tall when I was young. But do children understand the difference between historical fiction and history/nonfiction books? This is a quick mini-lesson you can do to introduce the genre, work on compare and contrast, or just make sure children understand the difference and the benefits of reading both!
1. Draw a Venn diagram on the board or on a piece of paper. Children can do their own, too.
2. On one side write: History/Nonfiction book. On the other side write: Historical fiction.
3. Ask children to tell you some characteristics of both–for example: "True facts." This could actually go in the middle because nonfiction books are full of true facts, but so is historical fiction. Another example would be: "Made-up characters" This should only go in the historical fiction side. "Real people"–this could go in both because real people often show up in historical fiction books–such as General Grant and General Pemberton who are both in my book, Finding My Place, but they, of course, were also in real life.
4. Once the Venn diagram is filled out, write some sentences (conclusions) that you can draw from the activity. For example: Historical fiction has made-up characters, and nonfiction history books do not. Sometimes, authors will put real historical figures in historical fiction books.
5. The important conclusion to draw is that although historical fiction is based on fact, there's a lot of fiction. Nonfiction history books SHOULD BE filled with only facts!

ALL RIGHT, LET'S DO THIS SHIT. I am still loopy and tired and having a legit nutty but I will try to get my thoughts together because this shit needs to be discussed. First, the marathon was OUTSTANDING. OUT. STANDING. Best $40 I ever spent. I showed up over two hours early and was horrified to see a considerable line already formed on 42nd Street, but then they let us in right away and it turned out there were three separate theatres, so I got an awesome spot (back row, center), not to mention some awesome swag:
And the manager guy later told us that they added the other two because ours, the first, sold out in three days. A-YEAH-YEAH! So I hung around and ran into some friends (and made a Starbucks run, meriting an entirely unbefuck-given response from the cinema staff) and then at 11:30 it finally started and we were just PUMPED. Adorably, Coulson did intros to every movie and we cheered every single time. And we cheered every time he showed up in each one of the movies. And every time Stan Lee showed up. And any time anything badass happened at all. Basically it was the most amazing audience I've ever had, outdoing TDK and all of the HP films and even Grindhouse, which 'til yesterday had been my #1. :') Mostly guys, which disturbed me a little at first--like, because of Tumblr I sort of forget that sometimes straight boys are nerds too and I was like "...oh, right. Well, I guess you can come too." Stray thoughts on the various films (which I have of course all seen before):
...oh, and there were 20-30 minutes breaks between each one, and I brought lots of food. And I won a prize!! They did trivia and I got the first question (!) and it was about the tesseract and I nailed it, obvs, so I won a prize. (The Captain America toy in the pic above.) \o/ BALLIN'. And people were already lined up for regular midnight shows when I went into the lobby around 6:45. O_____o Wow. That's devotion.
AND THEN IT WAS FINALLY MIDNIGHT AND THE TRAILER STARTED AND WE GOT...a Chris Pine romantic dramedy. Really, tho. >___> That was lame and everyone booed (heh), but then we got Lawless and I was like EVERYONE SHUT THE GODDAMN HELL UP IT'S GARY OLDMAN and they did (basically it's Deep South Boardwalk Empire, yes? EXCIIIIITE) and we cheered for Prometheus the instant we saw "from Ridley Scott," and best of all, The Amazing Spider-man got a wildly favorable response--people haven't seemed to be too excited, and I REALLY am, but I guess they're coming around. "Oh, you've found my weakness! It's tiny knives!" PETER. ♥ But we did NOT get TDKR and I am not at all okay with that. >___________< The one big disappointment of the night. But then the movie. THE MOVIE!:
(I mean, by my standards that's a perfectly functional relationship. Downright cuddly.)
is all I'm saying, basically. ♥_____♥ ("Please tell me no one kissed me." Someone in the audience pointed at Steve and yelled "HE DID!" ...OK, fine, it was me.)
And then when it was over I wasn't tired AT ALL; I was jazzed up on pure adrenaline and I was like "THIS MOVIE, I LIKE IT! ANOTHER!" but then we had to leave and I got to bed around 4:00 and slept in and went to work a bit late and spent all day in a nerdy haze of happiness. And now I wanna see it again. Like, I really really wanna see it again like NOW. I'm feeling all withdrawal-y and twitchy and jittery and I swear I learned about this in middle-school health class. I JUST NEED THE CRACK AGAIN OKAY
(and now I'm watching SPN oh my god what the actual devil is happeniiiiiiiiiiing)
OH AND MAY THE FOURTH BE WITH YOU. And tomorrow is Free Comic Book Day, so don't forget to get on that shit.

Two former Enron Corp. legal officers settled charges that they did not disclose company transactions with partnerships controlled by its chief financial officer in 2000 and 2001, the US Securities and Exchange Commission said on Jan. 26.
It said that a federal court in Houston ordered Jordan H. Mintz, a former Enron vice president and general counsel of its global finance group, and Rex R. Rogers, also a former Enron vice president and associate general counsel, to each pay $1 in disgorgement and a $25,000 civil money penalty on Jan. 20.
Mintz and Rogers also agreed to a consent order on Jan. 26 suspending each of them from practicing before the commission for two years, the SEC said. The order also permanently enjoins them from violating provisions of the 1933 Securities Act and the 1934 Securities Exchange Act. Neither man admitted nor denied allegations in the complaint in settling the charges, it added.
The SEC charged on March 28, 2007, that the pair failed to disclose Enron's related-party transactions with partnerships controlled by Enron CFO Andrew S. Fastow. Rogers also was charged with not disclosing related-party transactions involving insider stock sales by Kenneth L. Lay, Enron's chairman.
Their total $50,002 payment will be deposited into the court registry investment system for distribution to injured Enron investors under the "Fair Fund" provisions of the 2002 Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the SEC said.

Congratulations to the winners: Southdowns Orienteers
Controller's Comments
Having spent nearly 4 hours chatting to competitors at the finish, the comment I heard most often was "this is a much better area than I remembered". In my view this was partly due to ongoing clearing work but also due to the excellent courses planned by Anthony. Anthony's decision to use 2 starts stretched the resources of the small band of determined helpers but was the right one to allow light green, green and short green courses to visit the better terrain.
Several of you made helpful suggestions to improve mapping of vegetation and I have passed your constructive comments on to the mapper. HAVOC were expecting about 220 of you and got well over 300 - many thanks to those of you who gave up your maps at the finish to enable others to have a run.
For those of you who saw a HH runner covered in blood I can report that he is now well, after first aid from the Red Cross and some superglue at his local casualty unit - thanks for those that stopped their runs to go to his aid.
Overall an event of this type is big challenge for such a
small Club and one I am sure you will agree that Janet and her small gang of
helpers handled it well.
Mike Edwards (HH)
Planner's Comments
I hope you all enjoyed your courses and, as I heard from many finishers, you
were pleasantly surprised by the area. My aim was to use the area to the best of
it's capabilities and provide testing courses. This is tricky with an area like
Epping where the vegetation is so variable and paths come and go so quickly,
however I didn't wish to compromise the use of the most interesting bits.
Looking at the splits it was the complex areas near the beginning and the
"sting-in-the-tail" second last controls that seemed to have caused people the
most problems. These were uncompromised TD5 level controls (relatively rare in
the South East), so it's no surprise that they were testing. I feel all the
controls were navigable to based on the mapped information, but have sympathy
that precise relocation would have been difficult, especially with the
distraction of groups forming in these areas.
On reflection the course lengths/winning times look under called for the Short Blue and Blue. I used the course planning guidance ratios (and in
fact increased them based on initial controller feedback), but still people were 'too quick' on these courses. Not sure if this is the case with other events, and maybe the planning guidelines need tweaking, or if it's just an anomaly due to the quality of these age group competitors in this region.
Thanks to Mike for his controlling guidance and to the HAVOC control collectors who helped swiftly clear the forest.
This was HAVOC's showcase event/area, so thank you again for attending in such numbers and hope you retain positive memories of Epping SW & HAVOC events.
Anthony Squire (HAVOC/INT)
Organiser's Comments
Thank you all for coming to HAVOC's event at Epping SW. I
hope that everyone appreciated the facilities at the event centre in Gilwell
Park albeit some of the car parking was very tight, but the marshals work hard
squeezing you all in. As we did not lose anyone between Gilwell Park and the
forest the signage and route marking must have worked well enough, thanks to my
team who did a lot of walking! I did not get to the main start on the day, but
the team there did a good job. The small team at the WYO start had to spend much
of their time waiting and I thank them for staying at their post in the cold.
Thankfully my order for good weather for the event was partly met as it did stay
dry but chilly.
My decision on map numbers was based on the number of entries we had received by the lower rate closing date but, in the end we were a little overwhelmed and had to disappoint some people while others were not able to run their first choice course. The entries, registration and download team worked wonders in trying to meet all your requests and I believe most people went away having enjoyed the day. Thankfully the British Red Cross first aiders did not have much to do but the casualty they treated was fit enough to drive home afterwards. The Cake Stall made a profit to go towards funding the Guides' trip to Sweden. The management at Gilwell Park appreciated our good behaviour and will welcome us back.
Lastly thanks to Anthony and Mike for the courses without which there would not have been an event. Now, I have the bills to pay!

Testimony to House Commerce H. 852 Workforce Education and Training
February 20, 2014
VBSR supports economic development policies that build on Vermont's strengths: our extraordinary workforce, high quality of life, beautiful open spaces and clean environment. We believe healthy people, healthy communities, and a healthy environment are the foundations of a healthy economy.
We continue to support initiatives, such as the Vermont Benefit Corporations legislation passed in 2010 was a direct result of VBSR advocacy, that build on Vermont's unique strengths such as our green brand and great quality of life. In 2009, VBSR advocated for the creation of the Vermont "Farm to Plate" Investment Program, that is currently being implemented through the Vermont Sustainable Jobs Fund. That program focuses on economic sustainability through the development of local food production.

Gordie Howe Biopic is Too Slick but Family Fun
Mr. Hockey: The Gordie Howe Story (Saturday - Hallmark Channel, 9pm) - They say the woman makes the man, but in this case, she makes
everything happen. Kathleen Robertson (Boss, Tin Man) stars as the
late Colleen Howe, wife to Detroit Red Wings
giant Gordie (now 85) and son wannabes Mark and Marty.
The men of the
family made 1970s hockey history by playing together on the Houston
Aeros, champs of the insurgent NHL-rival World Hockey Association.
Gordie gets title billing -- and Michael Shanks (Stargate shows, Saving Hope)
makes a suitably humble "old man" Howe -- but this movie's motive power
is Mrs. Hockey's behind-the-scenes nudging, negotiating and wrangling
of her men.

GREENSBORO – The similarities were as eerie as they were disturbing for the North Carolina basketball team.
Same building. Same locker room. Same crowd of reporters milling around in the hallway waiting for news on a key player who had just suffered a potentially serious hand injury.
The result wasn't good the first time the Tar Heels played a game at Greensboro Coliseum, when point guard Kendall Marshall broke the scaphoid bone in his left wrist late in a second-round NCAA tournament win last spring. He ended up not playing another game.
Friday, just as everything looked to be going UNC's way again, the Tar Heels were hit by another potential disaster when sophomore P.J. Hairston suffered a cut between the ring and middle fingers of his left hand with 4:13 remaining in an 83-62 ACC quarterfinal victory against Florida State.
The gruesome-looking wound required eight stitches to close, four in the front and four in the back, leaving Hairston's availability for today's semifinal matchup with Maryland in doubt.
"We're extremely concerned right now," coach Roy Williams said. "His hand is torn up. We have no idea, I have no idea, won't have any idea (if he'll play today), so I told you everything I know.
"It doesn't look good. I saw where it was split. It's in between the webbing of his fingers."
Hairston wasn't available after the game, but according to Williams he suffered the injury while trying to keep the Seminoles' Aaron Thomas from stealing the ball near midcourt. Apparently the ball hit Hairston in the hand, spreading his fingers so far apart that the skin between them tore.
The cut produced so much blood that it took workers more than five minutes and two stoppages in play to clean it all up.
Hairston, who was described last year by Williams as being "a little dramatic with his injuries," nearly passed out and looked to be crying as he was helped to the locker room by team trainer Chris Hirth.
"When that kind of thing happens and you see all the blood, you're a little delirious," Williams said, who added that he and Hairston agreed not to watch while they stitched the hand up. "He's delirious anyway."
The injury put a damper on an otherwise encouraging performance in which the Tar Heels (23-9) won handily, even though star forward James Michael McAdoo – their lone big man in a four-guard lineup – played only 14 minutes because of foul trouble.
Hairston picked up most of the slack by scoring a game-high 21 points on 7 of 11 shooting, including 5 of 6 3-pointers.
The 6-foot-5½ swingman has been playing the power forward position since being inserted into the starting lineup as part of UNC's smaller alignment. The Tar Heels have won seven of nine games since making the change.
If Hairston isn't available today or beyond, it's going to force Williams into another – less desirable – adjustment.
"Conventional wisdom would say you have to go back big," Williams said, "because you can't teach Reggie (Bullock) the out-of-bounds plays from the four spot between now and (today) at three o'clock."
If that happens freshmen Brice Johnson, who had two rebounds and no points in eight minutes Friday, said he'd relish the opportunity for the added responsibility.
"I've been ready for it ever since he went to the small lineup," Johnson said… "That was his decision, so we're going to have to come back out and play like we were before that. We just have to play a little harder."
While Johnson is ready if needed senior guard Dexter Strickland isn't ready to rule out the possibility of Hairston playing.
"I'm just trying to think positive," Strickland said. "Hopefully he can get his hand wrapped up. He's a pretty tough kid. Hopefully he'll be able to shoot around and he'll be back ready to play."

Ndamukong Suh was the first Lions rookie since Barry Sanders to be picked as a Pro Bowl starter — and it's easy to see why. Amassing 66 tackles and 10 sacks in his first season as a pro, Suh dominated the Lions' opponents with his speed, strength and ability. In the Ngemba language, Ndamukong means "house of spears." Considering his status as one of the most decorated college defensive tackles as well as his selection as Defensive Rookie of the Year in 2010, he's aptly named, to say the least. Ndamukong Suh has hand-signed this Riddell authentic full-size helmet which comes complete with a Certificate of Authenticity from Palm Beach Autographs and a photographic print of Suh during the actual signing.

- Due to the individual nature of this product, variations may occur

This week topic is Weekly Photo Challenge: Urban. I don't go to city street. But I want to share what is next to my house in Malang City, Indonesia. There is vacant lot next to my house. Every day, there is a Buffalo come to eat grass. Off course Buffalo did not come by itself :-). You can see there are houses, cars, trees, grass, and buffalo. All mixed in this urban society where people grew up here. Did you see some bricks in this picture? In few months, I think buffalo have to move to other vacant lot.
