could someone explain the follwing to me
public class X {
public class Y extends X {
public class Z extends X {
public static void main(
args[]) {
X x = new X();
Y y = new Y();
Z z = new Z();
X xy = new Y(); // compiles ok (up the hierarchy)
X xz = new Z(); // compiles ok (up the hierarchy)
X x1 = y; // compiles ok (y is subclass)
X x2 = z; // compiles ok (z is subclass)
Y y1 = (Y) x; // compiles ok but produces runtime error
Z z1 = (Z) x; // compiles ok but produces runtime error
Y y2 = (Y) x1; // compiles and runs ok (x1 is type Y)
Z z2 = (Z) x2; // compiles and runs ok (x2 is type Z)
Object o = z;
Object o1 = (Y)o; // compiles ok but produces runtime error
why does this
Y y1 = (Y) x; // compiles ok but produces runtime error
Z z1 = (Z) x; // compiles ok but produces runtime error
and this
Y y2 = (Y) x1; // compiles and runs ok (x1 is type Y)
Z z2 = (Z) x2; // compiles and runs ok (x2 is type Z)

Yopu have to keep in mind the 'is a' rule. If a class extends or implements something then all objects of that class can be considered as 'is a' object of the class or interface they extended or implemented.
In your questions they will all compile because you are using a valid cast and the compiler cant know that at runtime they wont be valid.
For the two that dont work:
Y y1 = (Y) x;
Z z1 = (Z) x;
the variable x 'is a' x object. You cant cast it to a Y or Z object because it isn't an object of that type.

So what you're really asking about it upcasting vs. downcasting and when each is legal, right?
You can check out this section of the JLS for all the details:
§15.16 Cast Expressions
. However, I'll try to briefly explain.
Always remember that a class that extends another class is said to have an "is a" relationship with that class. In your case, Y "is a" X and Z "is a" X. However, X is not a Y and X is not a Z. The "is a" relationship doesn't go both ways.
When you execute code like this:
// Case 1 X x = new X(); Y y1 = (Y) x; // compiles ok but produces runtime error // Case 2 X x1 = y; // compiles ok (y is subclass) Y y2 = (Y) x1; // compiles and runs ok (x1 is type Y)
We have two distinct cases here. In the fist case, we're performing a downcast (hence the cast is required) on the reference variable x. IN effect, we're telling the compiler, "Look, I know that the variable x is of type X, but I know that, at run-time, it'll reference a variable of type Y, so let's just cast it and do the assignment." Once you've done the cast, the compiler says, "Fine, I trust you - I'll compile this." Without the cast, this wouldn't even compile.
However, when you try to execute that code, a check will be done to make sure that the cast can truly be performed. In this case, it can't. Remember, an X object is not a Y object (it's the other way around). Therefore, a
is thrown.
The second case is a little different. In this case, we first assign a reference to an object of type Y to a variable of type X. This is okay as this is a downcast. Downcasts can be done implicitly - that's why no cast expression is required.
Then, in the second line, we're again asking the compiler to trust us and do the upcast, so the code compiles. Again, at runtime, the check is done to see if the cast can really be done. In this case it can because the variable x1 really references an object of type Y. Therefore, you can convert that object to type Y. Hence, no runtime error.
I hope that helps,
SCJP Tipline, etc.
I agree. Here's the link:

Speeding on the Roadmap-The Future of 3D NAND FlashHosted by the Chemical & Gases Manufacturer Group (CGMG) of SEMI
TechXPOT North, North Hall
Based on the realization that there are perhaps one or two more shrinks for planar NAND flash devices, several memory producers recently announced plans for various technology approaches to next generation 3D NAND memory devices, with samples expected in 2014. In comparison to planar NAND, 3D NAND will offer higher endurance, faster write speed and lower power consumption, while at the same time relaxing the lithography requirements. Instead of a lithography-driven roadmap, and the associated costs of double patterning and other critical lithography steps, memory device producers will rely on advanced etch and deposition processes, which are inherently less expensive than critical lithography processes. In addition, the need for advanced materials, with low temperature deposition, selective etch, critical clean and planarizing capabilities will also be critical in bring these new 3D NAND technologies to market.
This two hour forum will investigate the markets for new devices; review new device structures; shed light on critical thin film technologies; discuss the implications for materials suppliers, and: allow participants to ask questions of industry leaders.

New project links arts to Central Corridor
New project linking Saint Paul arts-based community development to Central Corridor receives $750,000 grant
A New National consortium of arts funders called ArtPlace selected project for potential to be replicated across the U.S.
Soon, hundreds of projects led by local artists will bring new life and vibrancy to the Central Corridor Light Rail Line in Saint Paul, thanks to a new partnership announced September 15 between the City of Saint Paul, Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation and Springboard for the Arts.
The partnership's project, called Irrigate, has received $750,000 in support from ArtPlace, a new private-public collaboration. Each project supported by ArtPlace has been selected for developing a new model of helping towns and cities thrive by strategically integrating artists and arts organizations into key local efforts in transportation, housing, community development, job creation and more. ArtPlace has now announced its first round of grants, investing $11.5 million in 34 locally initiated projects, including Saint Paul's Irrigate.
Over the next three years, Irrigate will mobilize and train artists in community development and creative placemaking, and activate hundreds of artist-led projects along the Corridor to benefit businesses and neighborhoods. These projects will change the landscape of the Central Corridor with art, creativity and a population of artists who are engaged in their community.
"In Saint Paul, we've known for a long time that our artists aren't just the soul of our city, but the arts industry is a huge economic engine. You need look no further than Lowertown to see clear evidence of this. It only makes sense that we turn to these same strategies to achieve our goals for the Central Corridor," said Mayor Chris Coleman, whose office is a key driver in the effort.
The effort plans to bring together a period of significant infrastructure development, a high concentration of resident artists on both ends of the Corridor, a wide ethnic and cultural mix across the Corridor and a city with a strong track record of artist community engagement.
Saint Paul's Irrigate project will emphasize cross-sector participation with public and private sector partners. It will be a model of artist-led community development during major infrastructure improvement, and will also create a lasting cultural identity for the Corridor.
"We're excited to demonstrate that artists are a powerful, creative force to be mobilized during major infrastructure projects like this.We know that these creative people who live and work along the Corridor can engage communities and build lasting cross-sector relationships through projects that are practical, fun and surprising. Ultimately, we think this can be a model for cities across the country," said Laura Zabel, the executive director of Springboard for the Arts, a Saint Paul based economic and community development organization for artists.
ArtPlace, an initiative of 11 of America's top foundations working in conjunction with the National Endowment for the Arts and seven federal agencies, was also announced today. It aims to drive revitalization across the country by putting the arts at the center of economic development.
"The Central Corridor Light Rail Transit line is a billion dollar infrastructure investment in this city, and the hope and expectation for that investment is that it will increase the vibrancy and livability of the community around it.Irrigate is a unique and exciting project that will help us get to that vibrancy faster and more effectively by engaging artists as assets in their own communities," said Polly Talen, Saint Paul program director for the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, which is funding ArtPlace's efforts in Saint Paul and is also deeply engaged in Central Corridor development..
As longtime supporter of Minnesota's artists, The McKnight Foundation in Minneapolis is also among the collaborating private funders behind ArtPlace. "Irrigate is a terrific example of exactly the type and quality of work McKnight seeks to support through ArtPlace," said Kate Wolford, McKnight's president. "At the intersection of regional development and the arts, this public-private collaboration is beautifully positioned to forge creative, comprehensive approaches to transit-oriented development in the Twin Cities, with a strategic focus on how artists will contribute to its success."
The approach ArtPlace is taking, known as "creative placemaking," has emerged over the past twenty years as a promising way to increase the vitality of communities and help them grow. In 2011, the National Endowment for the Arts built on its two decades of work in creative placemaking by announcing the first grants in its new Our Town program, designed to support public-private partnerships to strengthen the arts while energizing the overall community. ArtPlace takes this movement a step further, as the first major public-private partnership to encourage creative placemaking across America.
"ArtPlace is accelerating creative placemaking, where cities and towns are using the arts and other creative assets to shape their social, physical and economic futures," said Rocco Landesman, Chairman, National Endowment for the Arts. "This approach brings new partners to the table to support the arts and recognizes the arts as vital drivers of community revitalization and development."
"Economic development historically has been about bagging the buffalo—competing for the big employer to move operations to your city," said Carol Coletta, President of ArtPlace."But now we know the economic development game is all about how you deploy local assets to develop, attract and keep talent.So why would you not deploy every asset you have—including artists and the arts—to do that?That's what ArtPlace is all about."
"ArtPlace represents a new paradigm," said Luis A. Ubiñas, President of The Ford Foundation and Chairman of the ArtPlace Presidents' Council. "It brings to the arts the kind of economic development thinking that has long been pursued for attracting and developing businesses, big and small, across the country. ArtPlace's integrated, interwoven approach has the potential to kick-start local economies and transform communities.The arts can play a central role spurring local economic activity."
ArtPlace grants are given through the combined support of Bloomberg Philanthropies, The Ford Foundation, The James Irvine Foundation, The John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, The Kresge Foundation, The McKnight Foundation, The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, The Rockefeller Foundation, Rasmuson Foundation, The Robina Foundation and an anonymous donor.In addition to the NEA, federal partners include the departments of Housing and Urban Development, Health and Human Services, Agriculture, Education and Transportation, along with leadership from the White House Office of Management and Budget and the Domestic Policy Council. Federal partners do not provide funding to ArtPlace, but participate in the ArtPlace Presidents' Council and Operating Committee meetings, ensuring alignment between high-priority federal investments and policy development and ArtPlace grants.
Concurrent with announcing its first round of grants, ArtPlace has initiated its second funding cycle. A Letter of Inquiry has been posted on www.artplaceamerica.orgas of September 15, 2011. Submissions may be made through November 15.

Each Thanksgiving, after the meal is long finished and everyone is munching on leftovers, the real highlight of the day for Leslynn Abbott and her family unfolds.
Children and grandchildren gather around the television to watch the lighting of the Macy's Christmas tree in downtown Atlanta.
As soon as the singer hits the high note in "O Holy Night," the family claps and rushes around the house to light the Christmas trees -- all 30 of them.
"That to me is the best part of Thanksgiving," Abbott said.
Abbott has Christmas trees in her living room, dining room, kitchen, three bedrooms, bonus room and even in the big garden tub in the master bathroom. All the trees are lit, and each has a unique theme.
"It is absolutely festive," Abbott said. "I don't have to turn on any lights in the house. You can almost read by them."
A lifelong Newton County resident, Abbott said she remembers as a child driving by a house with a Santa and sleigh on the roof. As part of her tree collection, she has put a life-size Santa decorating a tree in the front window of her home. In fact, all of her windows have trees in them.
"I hope that other kids will have that same excitement when they drive by and see Santa in the window," Abbott said.
Abbott's Christmas tree collection started about 14 years ago when she wanted a white and silver tree to go along with her annual family Christmas tree. Then she realized that she had so many ornaments, she could put up another themed tree.
"Then it just kind of rolled," Abbott said.
She has a Santa Claus tree, a peppermint tree, a snowman tree, a Mardi Gras tree (with pink, purple and green ornaments), a Nativity scene tree, a gum drop tree, a patriotic tree, a gingerbread tree and a kitchen gadget tree.
Her husband, Gordon, is working on building up his NASCAR tree. Abbott also reserves two trees in her bonus room for her grandchildren to decorate.
Abbott's favorite tree is the family-themed tree in her living room, which displays decorations from her childhood as well as her two daughters' days as children.
"That's the one I'd put up if I could only put up one tree," Abbott said. "It's probably not the prettiest tree, but it's very sentimental. Every ornament is wrapped and labeled. They're precious to me."
About the middle of October, Abbott starts the process of decorating the trees. Her husband brings the trees up from the basement. She fluffs and decorates them.
"My husband has to move around at Christmas because if he stands still, I'll decorate him," Abbott joked.
She admits that preparing all the trees is a big job, but she manages to keep the process organized, with help from her husband, who is also responsible for storing all of the ornaments and trees.
"When two-thirds of it is done and I've made the hundreth trip, I think, 'Have you lost your mind?' But then I get a second wind," Abbott said.
The trees shine from Thanksgiving through Christmas.
"I know how it makes me feel when it's all done. When I turn on the lights at night, it's almost a magical thing. I can't imagine not doing it," Abbott said.
By the first of the year, the trees are down and put away.
"I'm not superstitious, but I've always been raised that your Christmas decorations should not come into the new year," Abbott said. "I'm ready for them to be gone and ready to get my house back."

|Improvement of the probiotic effect of micro-organisms by their combination with maltodextrins, fructo-oligosaccharides and polyunsaturated fatty acids.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 12215187 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|Probiotics could represent an effective alternative to the use of synthetic substances in nutrition and medicine. The data concerning the efficacy of probiotics are often contradictory. This paper focuses on the enhancement of the efficacy of probiotics by their combination with synergistically acting components of natural origin. Maltodextrins can be obtained by enzymatic hydrolysis of starch and are suitable for consumption. Administration of Lactobacillus paracasei together with maltodextrin decreased the number of Escherichia coli colonising the jejunal mucosa of gnotobiotic piglets by 1 logarithm compared to the control group. Fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) are naturally occurring oligosaccharides, mainly of plant origin. L. paracasei administered in combination with FOS significantly increased counts of Lactobacillus spp., Bifidobacterium spp., total anaerobes and total aerobes compared to the control group as well as the L. paracasei group. It also significantly decreased Clostridium and Enterobacterium counts in the faeces of the weanling piglets compared with the control group. Dietary lipids influence the gastrointestinal microbiota and specifically the population of lactic acid bacteria. In gnotobiotic piglets the oral administration of an oil containing polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) significantly increased the number of L. paracasei adhering to jejunal mucosa compared to the control group. Our results showed that maltodextrin KMS X-70 and PUFA can be used to enhance the effect of probiotic micro-organisms in the small intestine, and similarly FOS enhance the effect of probiotic micro-organisms in the large intestine.

Can brand marketers apply metrics to SEM? Meet BEI.
Brand marketers have an advantage in their ability to maximize the volume of clicks they receive from search engines. But it's not all roses. Brands have it tough using metrics to measure effectiveness and to adjust search engine campaigns. Sure, search text listings have some branding impact. Yet it's far more likely a brand advertiser wants to create a brand experience on its site, not on a search results page. That requires post-click metrics.
That's a dilemma. A marketing professional with a branding objective wants to use search engine marketing (SEM) efficiently. In an e-commerce or business-to-business (B2B) SEM campaign, not all clicks are created equal. Metrics are used to differentiate between the best and less-valuable traffic. Most marketers are forced to "do a study" to compare media effectiveness or different creative executions. Many studies are cosponsored by industry organizations such as the Interactive Advertising Bureau, which coordinated research to examine online media as part of effective overall campaigns, or Dynamic Logic, which employs metrics that compare creative and media. None of these metrics lends itself to effectively measure the differential between keyword/position/engine combinations search engine marketers use.
We need easily measurable data that correlate with branding metrics to make necessary, ongoing adjustments in search engine campaigns. I propose a new metric, based on a behavior mapping strategy, called the Branding Effectiveness Index, or BEI (pronounced "buy"). BEI is a work in progress but has already proven useful in comparing campaign results.
Each marketer's branding needs are unique. Each determines which measurable actions and metrics combine to create his own BEI. The result is a flexible metric that measures branding impact. It won't measure ad effectiveness, rather the effectiveness of a given site on a visitor driven by an ad. A visitor interacts with the brand on the site and, ideally, positively changes the way she feels about that brand. If results aren't positive, there may be serious problems. You probably shouldn't spend on media until your site provides a good user experience.
A site does the branding in this case. So instead of using metrics designed to measure advertising brand effectiveness, we use the following proxies to build our own BEI:
BEI is a flexible, relative metric. It's used to compare campaign elements to achieve optimized results.
To generate your own BEI, set the most valuable measurable action to a value of 1. Other significant actions are assigned a percentage value of that variable, based on importance. For example, if a brochure request is 70 percent as important as newsletter registration, assign it a value of 0.7. All actions are added up and multiplied by their factor. These are totaled and divided by spending to determine BEI.
Any campaign or campaign segment (even a single keyword listing) can be measured by how well it did achieving BEI. Using the example above, 20 newsletter registrations and 10 newsletter requests for a $1,000 spend results in a BEI of ((20*1)+(10*.7))/1,000, or 0.027. If the number of newsletter registrations rises to 40 for a different campaign segment, BEI is 0.047. This value is useful in comparing campaign segments when using the same formula.
If a second campaign with a different set of measurable actions exists, results aren't comparable. A simpler way to think of BEI is as a variable, like a weighted average cost per action (CPA) that incorporates a host of post-click actions. I'm working with statisticians on how BEI might be normalized to allow comparison across various sites. That requires a more complex formula to set "factors" for actions.
Let's look at AdAge's top brands to see what metrics they might use to build BEI.
I'll spare you more examples.
Whether you think BEI is a wonderful new way of combining existing metrics to capture a site's branding impact or the nonsensical ravings of a guy who's looked at too much data, the fact remains Web sites impact brands.
Marketers should plan and adjust campaigns based on brand awareness measurements. My branding clients are glad to have an empirical way to effectively manage their paid search campaigns.

Favorite thing about Penn State Shenango: The small class sizes allow for a more individualized education. I liked being able to get to know my professors. Everyone learns at a different level and speed and with the closeness of the classes you feel comfortable to say whether or not you've completely grasped a concept.
Plans after Shenango: At the moment I am undecided as to the direction I intend to take. The major I've chosen has many possibilities. But whether I stay here in the valley, or pursue employment elsewhere, I know the education I've received at Penn State Shenango will carry me to the best possible place.
Favorite Instructor and why: When I saw the question about my favorite instructor I was torn. So I can't choose just one. Both of the professors I've chosen are truly passionate about what they teach. It comes across in their lectures every day. Some of the most uninteresting material is brought to a new light. I've never dreaded their classes or watched the clock for the time to leave. I look forward to their lectures and the way they conduct their courses. Both are very personable, willing to help a student in need of additional help, or are willing to just discuss whatever you might have on your mind about a topic that maybe wasn't expanded upon. And for all that I say thank you to, Lisa Reeves Bertin, and Dr. Phillip Nash. You both are excellent instructors and I am honored to have been a part of your courses.
Advice for students considering Penn State Shenango: Don't let the small class size fool you! They may be small but the courses are mighty. You don't have to travel far to get a great education, because Penn State is right in your backyard.

When 3M marketers studied office computing habits recently, they determined that although 63% of users worked with confidential information, 67% had monitors that were open to view by passersby. Therefore, their operators tended to come in early or stay late to process confidential work.
Voila! 3M came out with a PC version of the viewing-angle-reducing shield its engineers had developed for automated-teller machines. The apparatus is hung atop a monitor screen and, like a vertical Venetian blind, prevents peeking from either side. Called the Privacy Filter, the product comes in either a 13-inch or a 15-inch diagonal, for about $100.
Unfortunately, there's no version that snugs up to a laptop so a businessperson on an airplane can massage a spreadsheet without fellow passengers tuning in. But if the company gets enough requests, it's likely to market one, since the technology is equally effective with LCD screens. Until then, in-flight keyboarders can fashion a kludge, using tape -- Scotch Tape, of course. -- Robert A. Mamis* * *

Talented traveler: Rapinoe's soccer journey
Rapinoe is a long way from home, on pitch at London 2012
Megan Rapinoe was raised far from the bright lights of the London Olympics.
The 5-foot-7 midfielder for the U.S. women's national team was raised in a big family in Palo Cedro and eventually Redding, as the youngest of six children.
"Growing up in Redding was just pretty peachy, really," she said, in a U.S. Soccer YouTube video about her coming home to visit. "...We travel so much, it's nice to come back to something so familiar."
It wasn't just about soccer, either.
Rapinoe, who played her club soccer in Elk Grove, just south of Sacramento, played three years of basketball and competed in two years of track and field at Foothill.
Her intensity was too much for prep basketball.
"I fouled out of almost every basketball game in high school," said Rapinoe, in the YouTube video.
She didn't play soccer for the Cougars, and instead made her mark in a bigger, more competitive market.
With the Elk Grove United soccer club, Rapinoe played at nationals in 2003, and was a runner-up, in addition to her state and regional championships with the team.
Commuting back and forth in a two-plus hour drive was more than worth it for Rapinoe. A World Cup and an Olympic appearance later, those long hours seem perfectly viable. She was a national runner-up with Elk Grove in 2003.
Success on the pitch, though, wasn't Rapinoe's only forte as a high school student.
She hit the books and made the honor roll every semester at Foothill.
With a combination of athletic excellence and academic ability, Rapinoe was a perfect fit for soccer on a bigger stage.
Next level
Along with her twin sister Rachael, Rapinoe headed north to the University of Portland to play her college soccer for the Pilots.
In Portland, Ore., Rapinoe was a First-Team All-American as a senior in 2008, after recovering from an ACL injury, and led the West Coast Conference with 13 assists.
She only appeared in 60 matches in college after losing time to injury and international play, but is 10th in school history with 88 points – on 30 goals and 28 assists.
Some of that missed time came with good reason.
Rapinoe decided to forgo her freshman season to play in the 2004 FIFA U-19 Women's World Cup in Thailand.
In that tournament, Rapinoe was tied for the team lead with three goals, including a big one in a third-place match victory over the Brazilians.
She debuted with the senior U.S. team on July 23, 2006, and punched in her first goal on Oct. 1, 2006.
Rapinoe now plays for the Seattle Sounders FC, along with U.S. goalkeeper Hope Solo.
Multi-talented Megan
An avid guitar player as well, Rapinoe could never limit herself to just one hobby.
She's an adamant fan of artists like Adele, Kings of Leon and Florence and the Machine, and has well-viewed videos on YouTube of her talking about music, and playing the guitar.
"It's just a nice release, and a sort of haven for me," she said, in a U.S. Soccer YouTube video entitled 'Megan's Medley'. "...I think it relaxes me because I can just zone out and go into a different world."
Yet, she's taken soccer to its highest point – as one of the most versatile, creative and dangerous women's soccer players on the planet.
She may not have the capacity to score like teammate Abby Wambach – the Americans' all-time leader in Olympic goals scored – but she can do a bit of everything.
Her eclectic skills started with humble north state roots, and exploded for the world to see.
She's done it all so far in London.

Out of the tragedy of the Boston Marathon bombings last week, two things have become evident: 1) No matter how many precautions government agencies, safety officials and the public take, those who are bent on doing us harm will find a way to do so, and 2) they will never win.
Many questions surrounding this national tragedy remain unanswered. Who would do such a thing -- and why? No individuals or groups have come forth publicly to take credit for this act, but there is no doubt it was deliberate and it was intended to kill, injure and instill fear.
We can't make the leap to terrorism just yet, because we don't know "the why." Terrorism is an act done to advance a political cause, and we simply don't yet have that information. And really, the official definition doesn't matter. It was a terrible, terrible act, regardless of why.
The New York Times reports the toll in Boston -- three dead and more than 170 injured -- ranks as the highest U.S. casualty count exceeded only by 9/11, the World Trade Center Bombing of 1995, the Oklahoma City bombing of 1995 and the poisoning of restaurant salad bars with salmonella by religious cultists in Oregon in 1984.
Government has done an amazing job of thwarting bomb plots and terrorist activities. Count among them the Times Square bombing attempt of May 1, 2010; the so-called underwear bomber of Christmas Day 2009 in Detroit, Mich., and a host of other actions designed to disrupt our lives thwarted. Statistically, the number of attacks has been falling since the 1970s.
Boston, though, has shaken us out of our complacency. We will all be looking over our collective shoulder, scrutinizing anybody or anything that doesn't look "right." In the age we live in, we should never let our guard down.
Security will undoubtedly be increased at future public events such as the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure this Sunday in Indianapolis, the OneAmerica 500 Festival Mini-Marathon and the Indianapolis 500, an event that draws more than 250,000 people to watch the race.
No matter the steps taken to make us safe, we will continue to be vulnerable to people and organizations that can only find an outlet for their hatred or "cause" by trying to kill, maim and create an atmosphere of chaos and fear.
Life is full of risks and your safety can never be fully guaranteed. But the risks can be reduced, and must be. It takes all of us pulling together to do that.
Most of us are comfortable with these risks and the steps necessary to make us safe, which is why any attack, terror or otherwise, is bound to fail. Events on Sept. 11, 2001 served as a wake-up call, and perhaps more than 10 years later, we were lulled into believing such despicable acts would never occur. Boston demonstrates the fallacy of that mindset.
Americans are a resilient people, and we tend not to dwell on past events to the point of refusing to look toward the future. That's why we predict next year's Boston Marathon will draw just as many participants and spectators as ever, maybe even more. Those who carried out the Boston bombings have only filled us with a resolve to pull together, to refuse to live in fear and to carry on as normal.
That's something the people who would harm us don't understand. The death and injury they cause might be viewed by cohorts as a victory, but it's only temporary. It will only be a victory if we allow the bad guys to fundamentally change how we live. It didn't work after 9/11; it won't work now.

Zack's Kernel News
Kernel News
Chronicler Zack Brown reports on the latest news, views, dilemmas, and developments within the Linux kernel community.
make MODSIG=1
Mimi Zohar introduced a patch to support ephemeral module signing. The idea is that if you use a private key to sign modules, the kernel can use a public key to ensure that it only loads modules signed by you. Anyone trying to crack into your system by loading a hostile module would find the way blocked.
The problem is that if they do get a certain level of access to your system, they might locate your private key, sign their hostile module with it, and thus crack deeper into your system anyway.

The Alabama Department of Agriculture is getting a big hand from a famous homegrown musician in a bid to help state farmers.
Television commercials, billboards and posters are popping up statewide. They tout Alabama produce as "A-plus" and encourage Alabama consumers to buy homegrown products.
The 30-second television spot features Ag Commissioner Ron Sparks and Alabama lead singer Randy Owen. Owen is also a member of the state Board of Agriculture and Industries.
The campaign also features billboards along Alabama's highways and labels on products identifying them as Alabama grown.
The new ad campaign was paid for by a U.S. Department of Agriculture grant.
Sparks says it should help farmers who are reeling from a very wet spring that saw flooding through much of the state.
Sparks says the campaign is only the beginning of a multi-faceted plan to help farmers.

CHICAGO (AP) -- Marquis Grissom agreed Tuesday to a minor league contract with the Chicago Cubs, and the 38-year-old outfielder will compete during spring training for a roster spot.
Infielder Augie Ojeda, who saw limited playing time with the Cubs from 2000-2003, and outfielder Mike Restovich also agreed to minor league deals.
Grissom, a veteran of 17 major league seasons, spent the last three years with the San Francisco Giants. A third-round draft pick of Montreal in 1988, Grissom also has played with the Expos, Braves, Indians, Brewers and Dodgers.
He has a batting average of .272 with 227 homers, 967 RBIs and 429 stolen bases in 2,165 major league games. He was limited to 44 games last season with the Giants while battling a hamstring injury and hit just .212 with two homers and 15 RBIs.
Grissom will try to make an outfield that currently includes offseason acquisitions Juan Pierre and Jacque Jones, holdovers Matt Murton, Jerry Hairston and Corey Patterson and rookie Felix Pie.
The 31-year-old Ojeda has batted .219 in 178 big league games for the Cubs and Twins. He spent last season with Triple-A Rochester in the Orioles' organization.
Restovich, 27, has seen major league action over the past five seasons, including 52 games with the Pirates and 14 for the Rockies last season.

Hello There !
How are you today ranchers ?
Well, I'm confused about how does
layouts my components in a
. it's as simple as this; I'm using:
//bottomPanel is an instance of
And I start to add components to it, but they don't start to occupy space from the Right margin, instead... The components start filling the panel from the middle, and then start moving to the right as more components are added.
Is there something additional I can do to get it to look just like I need it ?
Thank you very much in advance,
Best Regards,
This is what I want to do.
This is the current state, components are added and appear starting in the middle

Orientation is used for languages where people read from right-to-left, instead of the way we use left-to-right. As your topic title says, you are concerned with "alignment" of components.
Read the API or tutorial for the correct method to use.
Also, posting pictures is not the best way to ask a question because we can't see your actual code that is causing the problem.
If you need further help then you need to create a
SSCCE (Short, Self Contained, Compilable and Executable, Example Program)
, that demonstrates the incorrect behaviour.

For the Sake of Message Length, I avoided posting any additional code, Probably I'm making the wrong assumptions as to where the problem lies, so... Here's the rest of it:
private void createGui() { window = getInstance(); JPanel mainPanel = new JPanel(); mainPanel.setName("mainPanel"); mainPanel.setBackground(new Color(255, 255, 255)); innerPanel = new JPanel(); innerPanel.setLayout(new BoxLayout(innerPanel, BoxLayout.PAGE_AXIS)); innerPanel.setBackground(Color.WHITE); innerPanel.setName("inner"); JScrollPane scroller = new JScrollPane(); scroller.setVerticalScrollBarPolicy(javax.swing.ScrollPaneConstants.VERTICAL_SCROLLBAR_ALWAYS); scroller.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(250, 100)); scroller.setViewportView(innerPanel); JButton addButton = new JButton("Search"); addButton.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(80, 25)); addButton.addActionListener(new java.awt.event.ActionListener() { public void actionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) { addButtonActionPerformed(evt); } }); JPanel topPanel = new JPanel(); topPanel.setName("topPanel"); topPanel.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(250, 40)); topPanel.setBackground(new Color(248, 248, 255)); FlowLayout flow = new FlowLayout(); topPanel.setLayout(flow); topPanel.setComponentOrientation(ComponentOrientation.RIGHT_TO_LEFT); topPanel.add(addButton); topPanel.add(new JTextField(13)); JPanel bottomPanel = new JPanel(); bottomPanel.setName("bottomPanel"); bottomPanel.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(250, 40)); bottomPanel.setBackground(new Color(255, 250, 250)); FlowLayout bottomFlow = new FlowLayout(); bottomPanel.setLayout(bottomFlow); bottomPanel.setComponentOrientation(ComponentOrientation.RIGHT_TO_LEFT); bottomPanel.add(new JButton("Hello")); ImageIcon icon = createImageIcon("/resources/guardar20x20.gif", "A Wonderful Diskette"); JLabel buttonLabel = new JLabel(icon, JLabel.CENTER); buttonLabel.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter() { @Override public void mousePressed(MouseEvent me) { System.out.println("Gooood !"); } }); bottomPanel.add(buttonLabel); window.setContentPane(mainPanel); window.getContentPane().add(topPanel, BorderLayout.PAGE_START); window.getContentPane().add(scroller, BorderLayout.CENTER); window.getContentPane().add(bottomPanel, BorderLayout.PAGE_END); window.setVisible(true); }
I'm still not posting everything there, but that's all that has to do with GUI-creation. Oh, and by the way, I have reviewed the Layout tutorials, and unless I understood incorrectly that's how I think I'm supposed to do it to get the components to place themselves there (Right Margin). If I'm wrong please tell me, I'm an Just a student, and you are the master.
Thank you again Rob.

That is NOT a
You questions is about alignment of components to a panel. To create a SSCCE you ignore your existing code and start from scratch:
a) you create a panel
b) you add a couple of components to it
c) you add the panel to your frame
d) you make the frame visible
It should be about 10-15 lines of code in this case. That is NOT too much to post and is extremely easy for us to read.
Did I not suggest "orientation" is wrong and "alignment" is correct. So why did you post old code when I already gave you the answer to your question. Read the API, the word "align" is used multiple times in the API. I will not spoon feed you the answer, you need to learn how to read the API. This is the last time I repeat myself when I give an answer.

I must apologize for the unnecessary code. it is my fault not to pay attention to your instructions. I should be more careful.
I hope you're not completely upset towards me about it. Sometimes I'm just too eager to get help.
I solved the problem with the hint you provided me, and for that I give you thanks...
I'm deeply sorry for all the inconveniences.
I agree. Here's the link:

This photo-article in The Atlantic contains some rare and disturbingly beautiful photos from the era of reckless American nuclear testing. It includes a few of the really interesting photos taken just a millisecond after detonation, when the explosion is still a relatively tiny ball of plasma.
… Read the rest
"Since the time of Trinity — the first nuclear explosion in 1945 — nearly 2,000 nuclear tests have been performed. Most of these occurred during the 1960s and 1970s. When the technology was new, tests were frequent and often spectacular, and they led to the development of newer, more deadly weapons. Since the 1990s, there have been efforts to limit the testing of nuclear weapons, including a U.S. moratorium and a U.N. comprehensive test ban treaty. As a result, testing has slowed — though not halted — and there are looming questions about who will take over for those experienced engineers who are now near retirement?
