The combination of pain and addiction challenges both the medical and legal systems. Treatment is complex, expensive and entangled with conflicting social norms about drug use and personal responsibility. Overdose and illegal diversion of prescription pain medication is a leading cause of accident death. Many suffer from undertreatment of pain. Chronic, non-cancerous pain is frequently comorbid with multiple physical and mental illnesses, causing and resulting from disfunctional family relationships and financial stresses.
This section of the website will go into the meanings of "addiction" and its relationship to the Buddhist term "attachment." It will address causes, types and responses to addiction. It will explore the public health issue of treatment of people who have complex conditions combining pain, addiction and multiple illnesses, including Dr. Kimber Rotchford's role in this public policy question.

Silicon Valley Venture Capitalist Confidence Index SVVCCI
Silicon Valley Venture Capitalist Confidence Index™ Falls to Lowest Level in Nearly 10 Years
SAN FRANCISCO (Feb. 7, 2019) -- The Silicon Valley Venture Capitalist Confidence Index™ for the fourth quarter of 2018 registered 3.2 on a 5 point scale (with 5 indicating high confidence and 1 indicating low confidence). This quarter's index measurement fell from the previous quarter's index reading of 3.52 to the lowest point since the end of the financial crisis.
This is the 60th consecutive quarterly survey and research report and, thus, provides unique quantitative and qualitative trend data and analysis on the confidence of Silicon Valley venture capitalists in the future high-growth entrepreneurial environment. Dr. Mark Cannice, department chair and professor of entrepreneurship, innovation, and strategy with the University of San Francisco (USF) School of Management, authors the research study each quarter.
"Political uncertainty and its impact on the health of the venture ecosystem, along with broader macroeconomic concerns, were the primary driving factors weighing on sentiment," Professor Cannice indicated in the new report.
"Long-term, I'm bullish and confident that the innovation economy will continue to define the future of business," noted Shomit Ghose of Onset Ventures. "In the short-term, however, the innovation economy is bound to feel the headwinds from the macro-economy."
Mark Platshon of Ice Breaker Ventures cautioned, "I am concerned that the government shutdown, China trade-war, Brexit and other political traumas could trigger slower growth or a recession. I think political turmoil domestically will impact the market as well."
Professor Cannice also noted that, "A reassessment of the value proposition on technology firms appears to have begun." For example, Venky Ganesan of Menlo Ventures declared, "The era of Big Tech is over. Trust, confidence and social good trump user engagement and growth. Every company regardless of whether it is consumer or enterprise needs to show that it values social utility and trust higher than revenues." Finally, John Malloy of BlueRun Ventures observed, "Capital access is already constricting and will get worse over this timeframe."
Professor Cannice concluded the report, writing, "Having macro political machinations directly impact the specific dynamics of venture growth is a rare occurrence in the 15-year history of this ongoing quarterly research. This should be a signal to policy makers in the U.S. and beyond to curtail the uncertainty that is directly impacting innovation and economic growth."

Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program Building Care and Prevention Capacity: Addressing the HIV Care Continuum in Southern Metropolitan Areas
The summary for the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program Building Care and Prevention Capacity: Addressing the HIV Care Continuum in Southern Metropolitan Areas grant is detailed below. This summary states who is eligible for the grant, how much grant money will be awarded, current and past deadlines, Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) numbers, and a sampling of similar government grants. Verify the accuracy of the data FederalGrants.com provides by visiting the webpage noted in the Link to Full Announcement section or by contacting the appropriate person listed as the Grant Announcement Contact. If any section is incomplete, please visit the website for the Health Resources and Services Administration, which is the U.S. government agency offering this grant.
Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program Building Care and Prevention Capacity: Addressing the HIV Care Continuum in Southern Metropolitan Areas: This announcement solicits applications for fiscal year (FY) 2016 to support a single organization that will serve as the Coordination and Technical Assistance Center (CTAC) for a new Secretary's Minority AIDS Initiative Fund (SMAIF) program entitled Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) Building Care and Prevention Capacity: Addressing the HIV Care Continuum in Southern Metropolitan Areas. The purpose of this program is to implement innovative models of service delivery that result in improvements in RWHAP Part A jurisdictions' HIV care continuum for minority populations.
The CTAC will provide technical assistance (TA) and service delivery funding to one subrecipient in each of four different RWHAP Part A jurisdictions located in the Southern U.S. In order to broaden the impact, no more than two subrecipients shall be from Part A jurisdictions in a single state. The goal of the project is increasing capacity to serve minority populations with a focus on men who have sex with men (MSM), youth, cisgender and transgender women, and people who inject drugs (PWID), resulting in improved health outcomes along the HIV care continuum. The four subrecipients must be selected from the 18 RWHAP Part A jurisdictions located in the following states: Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, North Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia. Please note that a subrecipient under this cooperative agreement does not have to be a current RWHAP provider. The project period is up to three (3) years. For more information and a list of RWHAP Part A jurisdictions, please visit http://hab.hrsa.gov/abouthab/parta.html.
Applicants must have a minimum four year history of developing and disseminating TA to RWHAP recipients and subrecipient providers, and are expected to collaborate with these partners in the development of this project.
In collaboration with HRSA's HAB, the CTAC will:
Provide start-up and ongoing TA (onsite and virtual) to subrecipients located in four of the 18 RWHAP Part A jurisdictions in Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, North Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia on a wide range of programmatic activities that have potential to positively impact the HIV care continuum in each jurisdiction by reducing disparities among minority populations.
Provide subawards to expand evidence-based/informed interventions, within a jurisdiction.
Provide ongoing consultation on the use of subaward funds to help with start-up of new programming.
Provide TA to increase the identification of newly diagnosed individuals and access points for entry into HIV care and prevention services among newly screened, newly identified and previously identified but out-of-care minority people living with HIV (PLWH).
In coordination with HRSA's HAB, collaborate with the HRSA Office of Regional Operations and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on any regional activities, through virtual and face-to-face meetings to provide opportunities for learning collaborative discussions.
The CTAC will also collate and share information on a wide range of effective (evidence –based or informed) programmatic interventions. This will include interventions that emanate from the HRSA HAB Special Projects of National Significance (SPNS) dissemination efforts, the CDC Effective Interventions Compendium, other efforts such as the International Association of Providers of AIDS Care (IAPAC) guidelines, interventions published in the peer-reviewed literature, and the recently concluded SMAIF-funded Care and Prevention in the United States (CAPUS) projects, many of which occurred in southern States. It is also recommended that interventions considered include a "test and link" model (described in the methodology section), where individuals would move directly and almost immediately from their HIV test result to specific treatment or prevention interventions in a community or health setting. Overall, this project could thus include a number of potential domains for use of subawards in programmatic implementation such as:
Increasing HIV testing and linkage to care
Increased testing and linkage to care for HIV/Hepatitis C virus (HCV) co-infection
Increasing HIV treatment coverage
Increasing retention in care and antiretroviral therapy (ART) adherence and HCV curative treatment
Increasing viral suppression
Tailored approaches to certain minority populations of focus [MSM, youth, cisgender and transgender women, PWID]

I need help. I haven't been diagnosed with Bipolar but I have a lot of the symtoms. I'm not saying that just because either. I really do think I have bipolar. It's either bipolar or maybe I just think these things because there is just something else wrong with me. All I know is that ppl aren't suppose to think this way and feel this way. Ever since a couple years ago I've been feeling more depressed and then I would get into fights with my family and then the next day I would be happy like nothing ever happened. Sometimes I have thoughts of just ending it all because then I wouldn't have to deal with life. I could just sleep forever. I'm broke and I can't even afford to visit a doctor let alone make an appointement. I don't know what to do. Life isn't cheap. I'm trying to live life but sometimes I just don't want to bother. On top of all that. My sisters use this site too. So If I keep bipolar as a community they are going to be thinking I'm nuts or something worse. If you have any advice for me please leave a note here. What do you think I should do?
See a psychiatrist soon, get diagnosed begin treatment for it. That's the road to go with.
to thadius: I would go see a psychiatrist but I don't have any money. so wouldn't that be kinda hard to do?
There's a reason why you're here. Maybe it's just to find out you're NOT bipolar.
There are two types of bipolar disorder in general, one more severe than the other. You could have the milder form, if you have it.
There are several online tests you can take to get an idea, it won't give you a diagnisis, but an idea.
If you don't have funds, local community resources should be able to help you out.
Congratulations Jol! You've picked door number 3! And what's behind that door? (Vanna, open the door...) It's a diagnosis as being a bi-polar! Just to be sure, contact your nearest psychiatrist and verify it! You'll be amazed how the world will open up for you! Plus, you must hide your prize from your friends. They may not understand. AND... you have to discuss it with your family! What a lucky girl! You get to convince them that you have a disease and you need help! How exciting!
Seriously... go see a psychiatrist and tell him everything. You'll probably be diagnosed BP, by what symptoms you told us... so, get ready for the medications! BP can't be cured... just controlled.
Jol, when you say your sisters use this site, do you mean DS or the bipolar site. If you mean the bipolar site and you're telling us you have two sisters dx with bipolar and you have mood swings we can almost assure you you win the bp prize. Genetic definitely play a role.
If you don't have any genetics involved, Hang out a while and visit. Theres alot of overlapping in dx. Sometimes Borderline Personality disorder looks like BP, or Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, so, I wouldn't label too quickly.
Check out local community service agencies, free clinics, if you're in the states call NAMI and ask for resources for insurance coverage or free care so you can get to see a psychiatrist for an evaluation. It's the only way to know for sure.
my sisters don't have BP. my one sister has FAS (Fetal Alcohol syndrome) and Poster Matic Stress, my older sister has FAE (fetal alcohol effect). My other sister isn't diagnosed with anything but her and I share a lot of the same problems. We have so much in common. But I could have PMSD. Afterall my little sister has it.
Just a quick correction -- It's called Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and its from some type of trauma, for many, it's from childhood traumas.
I have bipolar and ptsd.
yeah, sry I just forgot to write disorder. My sister has it.

What Is Zen Buddhism and What Is Its Primary Goal?
Jennifer Spirko - Updated September 29, 2017
Religions That Predate Christianity
Zen is a form of Buddhism that relies heavily on the practice of meditation. In fact, the word itself is the Japanese pronunciation of the Chinese term "Chan," deriving from a Sanskrit word for meditation. This linguistic basis reveals not only the key practice at the heart of Zen, but also its long cultural history, dating back to the early years of Indian Buddhism. Like most Buddhists, Zen practitioners aim for enlightenment, called "satori," but in the case of Zen, that enlightenment takes a uniquely pragmatic approach.
Za-Zen
The key to Zen practice is za-zen, which Shigenori Nagatomo in the "Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy," translates as "sitting meditation." The practice of za-zen is crucial, because Zen is an experiential approach; it is, in other words, not something one believes in, but something one does. Meditation typically takes either of two forms, Nagatomo explains: koan meditation or shikan taza, translated as "just sitting." "Koan" does not easily translate into English, although some writers call them "Zen riddles." Koan forces the Buddhist to solve an intellectual puzzle without relying on intellect. The seeming paradox forces the meditator into "breaking through ego-consciousness," according to Nagatomo.
The goal of Zen practice is satori, Japanese for enlightenment. Every person has the capacity to attain this state, meaning that each of us is, potentially, a Buddha. Nagatomo calls this state the "perfection of personhood." While enlightenment is, generally speaking, the goal of all branches of Buddhism, Zen differs in its focus on the practice. Achieving satori, in other words, doesn't make the practitioner a morally better person. Dale S. Wright of Occidental College makes this case, arguing that the extent to which Zen masters were ethical people relies upon the extent to which they developed a morality from sources other than Zen. Satori is a pure state, beyond culture or morality.
The Japanese term mu connotes "no" or "not," and it often appears in Zen writing to express the negation of ego or intellect. Zen master Keido Fukushima, abbot of Tofuku-ji Temple, explained the concept in Kateigaho magazine, noting that humans tend to become "wrapped up in layers of ego," both that of our own consciousnesses and those of our societies and cultures. Like koan, the concept of mu is intuitive rather than intellectual. Indeed, according to Nagatomo, some thinkers argue that this striving to empty the intellect makes Zen an anti-philosophy rather than a true philosophy, since the latter should rely heavily on the use of reason.
The opposite of mu, in a sense, is duality, and duality is what a Zen practitioner strives to eliminate. Dualities can take many forms: self versus other, real versus unreal, love versus hate, and so on. Among the dualities is good versus evil, which leads, Wright contends, to an ethical void. Elimination of dualities yields not one, however, according to Nagatomo, but "not-two," a uniquely Zen construction that avoids the inherent duality of one versus two.

Long-term follow-up of patients with benign thyroid fine-needle aspiration cytologic diagnoses
Clive S. Grant*, Ian D. Hay, Ian R. Gough, Patrick M. McCarthy, John R. Goellner
Surgery, Cardiac Surgery Division
Reliance on fine-needle aspiration (FNA) of the thyroid as the key determinant whether to observe only or proceed surgically is predicated on achieving a minimal false-negative error rate (the incidence of malignant disease in nodules diagnosed benign by means of FNA). To provide convincing data that malignant disease has not been overlooked requires extended follow-up on a large' number of patients with cytologically benign lesions. The intent of our study was to assess the long-term accuracy of thyroid FNA-based diagnoses-particularly with respect to false-negative errors. From our total experience of more than 8000 patients, we reviewed the cases of 680 patients who underwent FNA in 1980, the first year we used it clinically. Follow-up information was obtained on 641 (94%) of the patients with a mean time since FNA of 6.1 years. Benign cytologic findings were reported on 439 (68%) of these patients, and only three (0.7%) had false-negative diagnoses. The false-positive rate was 0% for the 24 (4%) patients with positive aspirates. FNA is a safe, reliable, effective means of accurately discriminating benign from malignant thyroid lesions.
Dive into the research topics of 'Long-term follow-up of patients with benign thyroid fine-needle aspiration cytologic diagnoses'. Together they form a unique fingerprint.

Unraveling Khipu: The Inca Knot Language
by Jesslyn Shields Nov 26, 2018
Inca Khipu knots found in Peru, shown on a main cord, composed of cotton, plant and camelid fiber, indigo and red dye. Dallas Museum of Art/Wikimedia Commons (CC0 1.0)
The Incas were no slouches: During the Bronze Age, they built the largest pre-Columbian empire in the Americas, extending along the west coast of South America from Bolivia to Chile. They not only thrived in the harsh climate and dry, steep slopes of the high Andes, they also served up a master class in technical road building that would have made the Romans quake in their sandals (they created a 25,000-mile (40,000-kilometer) highway system, complete with rope bridges across treacherous mountain chasms), engineered millions of acres of high-altitude, terraced farmland and constructed an earthquake-proof citadel on top of a craggy mountain peak, 1.5 miles (2.4 kilometers) above sea level. They even figured out how to freeze-dry potatoes.
But, unlike the neighboring Maya and Aztecs, and the ancient Mesopotamians, Chinese and Egyptians, the Inca never developed a system of writing. What they did have were khipu, or knotted lengths of cord made from cotton, llama or alpaca wool. They hung in rows like a curtain from a thicker central rope, which was sometimes coiled up to resemble a string mop. These bundles were often color-coded (although most surviving khipu are now a uniform camel color) and could contain just a few strings or hundreds. When the Spanish conquistadors arrived and wiped out the entire Inca civilization, they found khipu everywhere, but destroyed many of them.
In the 1920s, a science historian named Leland Locke studying the khipu at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City discovered the knots in the khipu represented numbers, and the bundles of textiles were most likely record-keeping devices similar to abacuses, probably used to hold census data or keep track of the contents of storehouses or how many llamas were paid as tribute. He realized the height of a knot and its position on its cord symbolized units — tens, hundreds, thousands and so on — and the position of a string off the main rope could denote things like specific people or villages. But even after Locke cracked the code, he noticed that some of the khipu he studied seemed to be anomalies — he figured these were used for ceremonial purposes.
There are, however, anecdotal clues that entire narratives could be passed along through khipu — one 17th-century Spanish conquistador reported meeting an Inca man on the road who carried khipu he insisted told of all the deeds of the Spanish in Peru, good and bad. But finding living people who can help researchers unravel the secret of the knots has proved very difficult, if not impossible.
So, khipu research has made slow progress in the past century. Since the early 1990s, a Harvard anthropologist named Gary Urton has been working to decipher what, if anything, the khipus that don't fit the normal mold of accounting devices might mean, collecting a database of over 900 khipu in the process. Urton has discovered that, beyond the position and height of the knots, there are other factors to take into consideration when reading a khipu: the color of the string, the direction the knots are twisted, the type of knots used. Through cross-referencing khipu in the Harvard collection with Spanish documents from the exact time and location in Peru where they originated, he has recently been able to prove that the direction the knots are tied in could denote which clans individuals belonged to.
Another researcher named Sabine Hyland at St. Andrews University in Scotland has recently found that some khipu still exist within villages in the Andes. The locals have shared some new information about them — for instance, that the different materials used in the strings is significant, and their understanding is that the devices were used to tell stories of warfare, for instance. She has even found evidence of phonetic symbols in the strings.
It could be, for all their ingenuity, the Incas never learned to use symbolic language. But it looks like they may have been just a little more creative with their storytelling than any other major civilization to date.
Now That's Interesting
Khipu couriers reportedly ran all over the Incan empire, the cords looped over their shoulders.

Death Toll Rises From Two Disasters In Indonesia; Minister Says Aid Not Needed Yet
The death toll from two recent disasters in Indonesia – a tsunami and volcano eruption – "rose to more than 340 Thursday" and hundreds were reportedly missing, the Associated Press reports. According to an official, "a warning system installed after a deadly ocean wave in 2004 had broken from a lack of maintenance," the news service writes (Ibrahim/Riyadi, 10/27). "Relief workers struggled to overcome rough seas in order to assess damage and deliver aid to islands smashed" by the tsunami, according to the Wall Street Journal, which adds that some relief boats were forced to turn around after reaching affected areas because of bad weather (Yuniar/Barta, 10/27). IRIN reports on the "increased health risks" of people displaced by the volcano, including respiratory illnesses caused by volcanic dust (10/27). Reuters reports that the volcano, Mount Merapi, erupted for a second time on Thursday (Sari, 10/28).
"[D]espite the death and destruction of the last 48 hours, Indonesian Foreign Minister Marty Natalegawa said today that he doesn't yet see a need for foreign aid or rescue assistance," the Atlantic writes, adding that both the U.S. and the Philippines have offered aid (Weingarten, 10/27).
NewsHour Reports On Maternal Health Among Flood Victims In Pakistan
PBS NewsHour reports on maternal and infant health among flood victims in Pakistan. The report follows the Pakistan Medical Association, which has set up tents in camps and provided midwives to monitor pregnancies. "The U.N. estimates half-a-million women will give birth in the flood-affected zones in the next six months. Those that make it to the camps are relatively lucky. They should get some medical assistance. Others are still wading in the water, with no access to even basic health care, the unseen and the unlucky," according to NewsHour. The report includes interviews with Nagina Ilyas, a midwife, Shershah Syed, a doctor with the medical association, and women who were displaced by the floods (Mohsin, 10/27).
Gates Foundation Awards Nine Projects In Grand Challenges Program
The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation will award nine grantees "up to an additional $1 million over five years" in the next phase of its Grand Challenges Explorations program, according to the Canadian Press. Projects that will receive new money "to take their ideas to the next level," include the development of "light barriers to stop mosquitoes from reaching humans," examining proteins to destroy gene mutations created by HIV, adding gold particles to infectious disease drugs to "help treatments withstand drug resistance," and studying the structure of malaria parasite genes to prevent drug resistance. The initial phase of the program awarded seed money to 340 projects (Blankinship, 10/27).
SciDev.net Examines USAID's Development Innovation Ventures Fund
SciDev.net examines the Development Innovation Ventures (DIV) fund, "a major new initiative to link its aid agency USAID to the private and entrepreneurial sectors in a bid to promote technological innovation in the developing world" that was launched earlier this month. The venture has invested $1 million so far in eight projects including "an affordable, clean, fuel-cell bike, solar lighting in rural Uganda" and Dimagi, Inc., which received $100,000 to test its mobile phone disease diagnosis software in India. The article quotes Neal Lesh, CEO of Dimagi, Rajiv Shah, USAID administrator, Cathy Campbell, the CEO of the U.S. Civilian and Research Development Foundation and Maura O'Neill, chief innovations officer at USAID, who said over 100 projects have requested funding so far (Tatalovic, 10/26).
Roche Explores Possibility That Drug Initially Developed For Hepatitis C Could Aid Patients With Dengue Fever
Bloomberg Businessweek reports that the drugmaker Roche in July began testing "a drug initially developed for hepatitis C to see if it helps patients with dengue fever," a disease the WHO estimates infects 50 million people annually. According to the news service, "[a]s many as 100 patients may potentially be recruited for the study, sponsored by Basel, Switzerland-based Roche, [Jeremy] Farrar [one of the researchers involved in the Roche trial] said. It's the first of three stages of clinical trials that regulators usually require to approve a new medicine. Doctors will also look to see whether by using an antiviral to fight the infection, patients can avoid bleeding complications linked to an exaggerated immune response, he said." The article notes the relationship between the hepatitis C and dengue viruses, the growing number of dengue cases globally and the annual dengue-related productivity and health care costs (Gale, 10/26).

Q: Dynamically adding layouts I am attempting to dynamically add FrameLayouts inside a RelativeLayout but am getting the following error:
java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'void android.widget.RelativeLayout.addView(android.view.View)' on a null object reference
which occurs during rl.addView(fl)
public class StartingPage extends AppCompatActivity {

//set to 1 temporarily
int count = 1;

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_starting_page);

    RelativeLayout rl = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.mainMenu);
    FrameLayout.LayoutParams params = new FrameLayout.LayoutParams(ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, 100, Gravity.CENTER_HORIZONTAL| Gravity.CENTER_VERTICAL);

    for(int i=0; i < count; i++){
       FrameLayout fl = new FrameLayout(this);
       fl.setLayoutParams(params);

       TextView item = new TextView(this);
       fl.addView(item);

       rl.addView(fl);
    }
}

}

My research seems to conclude that this would work, why is the FrameLayout fl null? I understand that a LayoutInflater is an option, which I have briefly tried to no avail, but it seems that many people were simply able to create the layouts and views and add them to the desired parent in this simpler manner.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    android:id="@+id/mainMenu"
    tools:context="com.marcel.joseph.project.Main_Menu">

</RelativeLayout>

Furthermore, what makes a layout null? Is it the lack of children, undefined attributes, or something else?
Thanks

A: Check with below code:-I think you are not set layout prams to Textview because of that it gives error.
        public class StartingPage extends AppCompatActivity {

        //set to 1 temporarily
        int count = 1;

        @Override
        public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
            super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
            setContentView(R.layout.activity_starting_page);

            RelativeLayout rl = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.mainMenu);
            FrameLayout.LayoutParams params = new FrameLayout.LayoutParams(ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, 100, Gravity.CENTER_HORIZONTAL| Gravity.CENTER_VERTICAL);

            for(int i=0; i < count; i++){
               FrameLayout fl = new FrameLayout(this);
               fl.setLayoutParams(params);

               TextView item = new TextView(this);
            RelativeLayout.LayoutParams objParams=new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);

    item.setLayoutParams(objParams);
item.setText("test");
               fl.addView(item);

               rl.addView(fl);
            }
        }

        }

hope it helps you.Let me know if gets any error in code.

A: You need to initialize your FrameLayout first.Something like this
// Initialize a new FrameLayout
 FrameLayout fl = new FrameLayout(this);

Then you can Create Layout Parameters for FrameLayout.
FrameLayout.LayoutParams params = new FrameLayout.LayoutParams(ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, 100, Gravity.CENTER_HORIZONTAL| Gravity.CENTER_VERTICAL);

One thing i am not clear that why your xml file name is mainMenu?are you try to use a menu resource file?

Q: Equivalent for unsigned char * in c#
Possible Duplicate:
unsigned char ** equivalent in c# and have to write the return value in a file

I have to call a win32 dll function
int func1(int arg1, unsigned char *arg2, int *arg3);

and i wrote wrapped c# as
public extern int fuc1(int arg1, out IntPtr arg2, out IntPtr arg3);

The arg2 has to allocate 2048 bytes and send it to the win32 dll. I'll get arg2 and arg3 as output.
how can i declare in c# test application as well as c# wrapper. am i doing it right ?

A: byte in C# is unsigned 8-bit int. byte[] is an array of them. To get a pointer to this array, use:
 var myArray = new byte[2048];
 fixed(byte* arg2 = myArray)
 {
      // use arg2
 }

or:
 var myArray = new byte[2048];
 GCHandle pinnedRawData = GCHandle.Alloc(myArray, GCHandleType.Pinned);
 try
 {
    // Get the address of the data array
    IntPtr pinnedRawDataPtr = pinnedRawData.AddrOfPinnedObject();
 }
 finally
 {
    // must explicitly release
    pinnedRawData.Free();
 }

Alternatively, if the called function will not cache a pointer to the array, you can simply do this:
 public static extern int fuc1(int arg1, [In,Out] byte[] arg2, ref int arg3);

 var arg1 = 0;
 var arg2 = new byte[2048];
 int arg3 = 42; // If this value won't be used, you can skip initializing arg3 and mark arg3 as out instead of ref (of course, this is pedantic and extraneous, and C# shouldn't even have 'out' as a keyword)

 func1(arg1, arg2, ref arg3);

P/Invoke will pin it automatically.
MSDN Marshaling Arrays of Types
Related SO question

A: Declare the function in C# like this:
[DllImport(@"MyDll.dll", CallingConvention=CallingConvention.Cdecl)]
public static extern int func1(
    int arg1,
    StringBuilder arg2,
    out int arg3
);

And then call it like this:
int arg1 = ...;
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(2048);
int arg3;
int retVal = func1(arg1, sb, out arg3);
string arg2 = sb.ToString();

Note that C# IntPtr does not match C int. You need C# int to match that because IntPtr is the same size as a pointer, either 32 or 64 bits. But int is always 4 bytes.
I am assuming that your DLL uses the cdecl calling convention. If you are using stdcall, you can make the obvious alteration.
I also assumed that your data is in fact text data. If it is just a plain old byte array then the code is simpler.
[DllImport(@"MyDll.dll", CallingConvention=CallingConvention.Cdecl)]
public static extern int func1(
    int arg1,
    byte[] arg2,
    out int arg3
);

And then to call:
int arg1 = ...;
byte[] arg2 = new byte[2048];
int arg3;
int retVal = func1(arg1, arg2, out arg3);

Offseason Checklist Must Include Chaney
One of the many critical decisions the Eagles must make in the months ahead involves the middle linebacker position and, in fact the entire group. Stewart Bradley's dislocated elbow late in the season opened the door for rookie Jamar Chaney, who went out and showed in three starts that he deserves a chance to be on the field in 2011 -- some where, somehow.
A seventh-round draft pick last April, Chaney went through the usual "no-chance" rap that all late-round picks hear. He was too small, they said. A knee injury that hampered his career at Mississippi State was an issue, some insisted. At 6 feet, 242 pounds, Chaney would have to make his mark on special teams to earn a spot in this league.
He did that, compiling 11 tackles and 177 points on special teams. Then Bradley went down, an ugly injury in the victory at Dallas, and Chaney was summoned.
The young man did not shrink from the sudden rise in responsibility. He recorded 8 tackles in Dallas, then had 16 and a forced fumble against the Giants and suddenly the Eagles felt a huge sense of trust with Chaney playing all three downs at middle linebacker.
Chaney was far from perfect in his three starts and four games with substantial playing time at middle linebacker. The Eagles allowed too much rushing yards in losses to the Vikings and the Packers and Chaney, as the middle linebacker, accepted some of the responsibility for breakdowns. That's part of the territory, too: All players have weaknesses, and the young ones' get theirs exposed very, very quickly.
But, clearly, the promise is there for Chaney. He has range, he has speed, he tackles well and he gets off of blocks well. Chaney uses his hands and his technique to free himself and to flow to the football. He has the instincts and the intelligence to play the middle linebacker position and he can run with tight ends.
The question the Eagles have to answer moving forward is this: What do they do with Chaney?
A lot depends on Bradley, who suffered a second straight season-ending injury. He missed all of 2009, of course, and the Eagles never replaced his three-down ability. Bradley ranked second on the team in 2010 with 88 tackles in just 10 games before he went out for good with his elbow injury. He wasn't quite all the way back from his pre-injury form after recovering from ACL surgery, but he was close. And the Eagles were among the best teams in the league against the run, and they had a lot of takeaways, and the defense had its moments of dominance with Bradley on the field.
Complicating the what's-next decision is that Bradley is, as of now, slated to be a free agent when the new Collective Bargaining Agreement is hammered out between the players and owners. Of course, free agency could take on an entirely different bent when an agreement is reached. Bradley may or may not be an unrestricted free agent. Nobody knows the answer.
The Eagles have plenty of questions of their own, not the least of which is what to do and where to play whom at all three linebacker spots. Veteran Ernie Sims, acquired in a trade prior to the draft from Detroit, is also scheduled to be an unrestricted free agent after an up-and-down year in his first season in Sean McDermott's defense. Moise Fokou played pretty darn well at the SAM spot after he won the starting job back from Akeem Jordan, who was one of the team's stars on special teams. Veteran Omar Gaither is due to be an unrestricted free agent as well after serving as a key reserve and special teams player here.
Another rookie, Keenan Clayton, was used as a hybrid linebacker/safety and he opened eyes late in the year, particularly in the regular-season finale against Dallas and in the playoff loss to Green Bay.
The Eagles have not had stability at all three linebacker positions in many, many seasons. They would love Chaney to advance beyond the promise that he showed in 2010 and they hope that Clayton is the real deal as a WILL linebacker. Fokou made terrific strides at SAM, so maybe he is the guy there for years to come.
Bradley? He has been a core piece of the defense since 2007. He has all the tools and the leadership qualities to be a top-flight middle linebacker. Some think he would be a superb SAM linebacker, rangy and fast enough to blanket tight ends and physical enough to win the battle against the run.
What happens next? Well, there are many issues to address around here. Who plays the linebacker positions, all three of them, is one very big question to answer, indeed.
The Tom Brady Factor: 'A big-time challenge' awaits the Eagles' defense
The Eagles got to see the quarterback up close back in Week 6. A lot has changed since then, but the mission remains the same against a player who has seen it all.
An appreciation of Jeff Stoutland and the Eagles' marvelous offensive line
A look at the maestro of the O-line and some insight into the process that allows his position group to be a strength of this team.
Eagles will face the Buccaneers in the Wild Card Round
The Eagles finish the regular season as the No. 7 seed and will travel to face the defending Super Bowl Champions next Sunday at 1 PM on FOX.
Opening drive presents short-term and future potential for Eagles
With 10 players inactive and another 11 on the Reserve/COVID-19 list, the Eagles got to feature young players in spotlight roles in the regular-season finale.
Chasing a dream: The 'craziest underdog' Cameron Malveaux gets another chance Saturday night
While it remains to be seen how Head Coach Nick Sirianni will handle the starters, Malveaux savors the opportunity to suit up once again.
Greg Ward epitomizes the Eagles' team-first mentality
His role isn't as expansive as last year, but the wide receiver has been a reliable presence both on and off the field.
From 2-5 to the playoffs, an offensive and a defensive perspective on how it happened
The Eagles are 7-2 in their last nine games with a playoff berth secured before the final week of the regular season. Also, Jake Elliott talks about his season filled with career highs.
Poise and leadership shine through as Eagles win fourth straight
It was a gritty NFC East battle, but a stout defensive performance in the second half ensured a winning season in Nick Sirianni's first year as head coach.


Valentine's Day is about love in every shape, size, and form.
Better than the cheesiness we've been sold, isn't it?
This is what love looks like to me today.
Bearing that in mind, here's a short love letter where I tell you what's really happening around these parts.
It's been a weird couple of months filled with ups and downs.
The most viral Bevoya story to date happened a couple of weeks ago.
Professor Lakoff's initial response to the virality was stressful. I really admire him.
I decided to embark on the first-ever Beautiful Voyager t-shirt sale. When the shirts landed, seeing everyone together was amazing!
Final tally: 68 shirts sold!
Then a crazy thing happened.
Because of it, I was forced to confront my inner customer service avoidant demons.
A wonderful first-time writer shared his story of learning about how his mind works after leaving a career in professional baseball.
Is it possible to earmuff the news for a specific period of time? How do you earmuff dinner party conversations?
Getting to write to you — and for you — is an honor and a privilege.
Thank you for being my Valentines.
Those are little Snapchat leaves around my nose btw. Nothing weird happening there.
Watch Out! Your Brain is Listening.


Employers should always be aware that non-compete agreements will be strictly construed against it as the party in charge of drafting the contract; presumptions regarding ambiguities almost always devolve in favor of an employee. It is here where lawyers need to be particularly scrupulous in drafting agreements that reflect the intentions of the employer and guard against potential loopholes.
A recent Washington appellate case illustrates what happens when the precise contract language renders a non-compete totally ineffectual, such that traditional notions of reasonableness and protectable interests never even get addressed.
Fluke Corp. v. Milwaukee Electric Tool involves a dispute over the termination of Jonathan Morrow, who left Fluke to begin work for Milwaukee Electric in its Test and Measurement Field. But Morrow was initially hired by Jacobs Chuck Manufacturing, a subsidiary of Danaher Corporation. Fluke was a separate subsidiary of Danaher.
Morrow's two-year, broad non-compete restriction was contained in a contract with Jacbos Chuck; Fluke was not a party to it and the definition of "Company" in the preamble to the agreement referenced only Jacobs Chuck as a division of Danaher.
The non-compete clause broadened the definition of Company to include any affiliate of Danaher, but the expanded definition of Company was limited just to the non-compete term. Morrow was transferred to Fluke after he signed the non-compete contract, and he never signed a new agreement with Fluke.
Fluke balked when Morrow quit to join a competitor. Reversing the trial court's order of injunctive relief, the appellate court held that the unambiguous contract language rendered the non-compete unenforceable by Fluke against Morrow.
The reasoning: Morrow's transfer to another subsidiary - Fluke - constituted a termination of the employment agreement. It was critical that other contract provisions not at issue stated that a transfer of Morrow to another affiliate of Danaher would not constitute a termination of the agreement. However, by limiting the effect of transfer to just a few paragraphs, the fact the non-compete section was silent on this issue meant Morrow's transfer to Fluke was a termination for purposes of the non-compete covenant.
Finally, the agreement did not provide for automatic assignment to a subsidiary in the case of a transfer. Had it, the outcome may have been different - or at least the court would have been forced to address the substance of the non-compete.
The decision is an example of how employers must be careful in analyzing when the non-compete purports to operate, either in terms of an inter-company transfer, a termination or an assignment following an acquisition. It is critical that terms in one paragraph match up with another so that employees cannot argue that the strict construction rule releases them from any post-employment obligations.

TEXT QUEENSLAND | QUEENSLAND'S PAST ONLINE
One of the best kept secrets with regards to all those hard to find things like copies of government gazettes, hansard, out of print books, journals, the copies of the very early publication, The Queenslander... so many hidden treasures, is the site, Text Queensland.
Make yourself a cuppa, set aside an hour, or maybe more, get comfortable and indulge yourself. Be sure to let me know what treasures you find... as for me, I'm heading off to read more of The Queenslander, which is actually accessed through Trove, another gem.

SELLING OUR ASSETS INDEED... CELIA LARKIN...
http://www.independent.ie/opinion/analysis/celia-larkin-our-country-cousins-could-teach-us-a-thing-or-two-about-reaping-what-we-sow-3031784.html
http://tinyurl.com/7ogkjcw
Celia Larkin: Our country cousins could teach us a thing or two about reaping what we sow
Selling our assets indeed. You wouldn't catch a farmer selling his/her main assets. Oh what fools we city slickers turned out to be. We thought we were sophisticated, with our million-euro properties, big cars and holiday homes.
"Look at us," we thought, "haven't we got it made." Not for us acres of land just to graze cattle on. No, land to us meant building sites, dollar signs, quick profits. No long-term investments, no tiddly little loans of €50k. It had to be millions or it wasn't worth the bother. And the banks bought into it.
As Connie Francis once sang: "Who's sorry now?"
Today, during one of the deepest recessions the county has ever witnessed, the farming industry is booming. The only property increasing in value is farmland. The bottom has fallen out of the fancy housing market, but the value of those boring acres of farmland has been rising steadily over the last two years.
And the banks? Those institutions that scoffed at the modest requirements of farmers wishing to invest €50k in farm buildings, machinery or livestock? Those institutions preferring to host a stand at the Ideal Homes exhibition rather than an agricultural show, as happened in Galway with the ACC bank (traditionally a farmers' bank) a few years ago? They'd give their right arm to have a farmer as a customer now.
Is it any wonder farmers are rapidly moving back up the list of Ireland's most eligible bachelors, according to Macra na Feirme? So what's the attraction, apart from the solvency issue?
Me, a Dub from Finglas, I live in the heart of rural Ireland in Co Clare. Who'd have thought it possible? But fact can often be stranger than fiction. I'd love to say I followed, or rather, lost my heart and that's what led me to Clare but, alas, my change of abode was an accident of circumstance rather than any great life-changing master plan.
And, as often happens when fate takes the lead, I couldn't be happier.
Living in the 'country' may not be everybody's cup of tea, but for me, the benefits far outweigh the drawbacks. In fact I'm finding it hard to think of any drawbacks.
Yes, you are further away from the shops (not a bad thing in my financial circumstances), and, yes, everybody does know your business, but then everybody seems to know my business anyway, so no great change there.
I could give you all the cliches about the open spaces, the clean air, the sounds of nature. And without doubt they are a factor. But it's the sense of community that gets me. It's the knowledge that if I didn't venture out for a couple of days, someone would come looking for me.
You rarely hear stories of people dead in their homes for weeks before being found. It's the knowing that if you have a problem you really can call on your neighbour for assistance. Of course the catch is, you have to be available to give assistance too. And there's
a respect for people that is sometimes hard to find in the city.
While people will know your seed, breed and generation, your comings and goings, your flaws and your failings, there's a tolerance for human weaknesses, an understanding and acceptance of human nature, warts and all.
The slow, steady pace of life sucks you in. There's no rush, just a steady moving forward, all things having their time and time for all things. The social life is very different. There is no doubt the drink-driving laws have knocked the stuffing out of the pub business, traditionally the hub of the rural social scene. However, communities still celebrate and mourn together. In fact, there can often be a bigger gathering for a funeral than there is for a wedding.
What I found most touching was the fact that neighbours dug the grave. Not for them the impersonal presence of a digging machine, but the slow process of hollowing out the earth where a neighbour and friend will finally rest.
When it comes to weddings, boy do they know how to have a hooley. It's a three-day event and it would take you a week to recover. They never go to bed. I don't know where they get their energy from. They certainly know how to play hard, but they work hard too.
I laughed to myself when, last week, I saw on the front of the local paper. Mr Xi Jinping, vice-president of China no less, having an Irish coffee with James Lynch and his family from Six-Mile-Bridge. It wouldn't have happened a few years ago. It would have been hard hats and boots in front of some massive development with bankers and builders and TDs in tow. Oh, how the tables have turned.
The quiet progressive pace of a community that largely ignored the roar of the Celtic Tiger, the real keepers of our State assets, the custodians of the land providing one of the lifelines that will rescue us from the mire of our own making.
Our food and dairy industry has doubled its exports to China since 2008 and the fact that we still import so much food provides one of the few opportunities to improve the balance of payments with import substitution. And all the signs are that the export market will continue to grow.
We could learn a lot from our country cousins. I was particularly taken by a story told to me recently. Reminiscing about the purchase of his first car, a neighbour told me that back in 1964 he sold 10 cattle at £74 each to buy an Austin A 40.
To this day that is the country way. You sell something to buy something. You don't accumulate debt for non-essential goods.
Oh, what fools we city slickers are.

GRAND OLD MAN OF IRISH ACTING DIES, AGED 82
The Irish Times - Monday, February 13, 2012
ALISON HEALY
THE ACTOR David Kelly died in Dublin yesterday after a short illness. He was 82 years old.
He worked in theatre, television and film for more than 50 years and had continued to work up until last year. He was perhaps most highly-regarded for his portrayal of "Rashers" Tierney in the 1980 RTÉ series Strumpet City . He singled it out as one of his favourite pieces of work.
In 1975 he had a brief but memorable role in Fawlty Towers when he played the part of the hapless builder O'Reilly. He often remarked that he had performed on stage for more than 50 years but the nine minutes on Fawlty Towers made him recognisable all over the world.
Kelly was born in Dublin on July 11th, 1929 and educated at Synge Street Catholic Boys School. He started acting at the age of eight in Dublin's Gaiety Theatre but also trained as a calligrapher and was a talented watercolour artist.
He was a dapper dresser and known for his colourful bow ties. He later said the bow ties became his trademark as he tried to look the part of a bohemian artist.
He became a familiar face to British audiences in the 1960s and 1970s when he played eccentric Irish characters in sitcoms such as Oh Father, On the Buses and Never Mind the Quality Feel the Width. He performed in 50 episodes of the Richard OSullivan vehicle, Robin's Nest, in which he played the one-armed dishwasher Albert Riddle. Other television work included Glenroe, Ballykissangel and Emmerdale Farm.
He had a long list of film credits including the 1969 version of The Italian Job, Into The West and Waking Ned , which he credits for making him a sex symbol after he appeared nude on a motorbike.
He also appeared in films such as Agent Cody Banks 2, Laws of Attraction, Stardust and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory , in which he played Grandpa Joe Bucket. He had been tipped for an Oscar nomination for that role.
On stage he will always be associated with Samuel Beckett because of his legendary performance in the title role of Krapp's Last Tape . He won many awards and acknowledgements for his work, including a Helen Hayes award for Moon for the Misbegotten , and a Screen Actors' Guild nomination forWaking Ned.
He won an ESB Theatre Award in 2003 and an Irish Film and Television Academy lifetime achievement award in 2005.
He recalled that he regularly played people much older than himself. In 2005, he told The Irish Times : "I remember, six years ago, on my 70th birthday, some journalist writing: David Kelly is 70 today. But what I want to know is how come he's been 70 for the past 40 years'. . ."And it's perfectly true. It's a very strange thing." He was asked if he had ever considered retiring and replied "Oh God, no. Ah no . . . I will continue hanging on to the script until they prise it from my cold, dead hands."
Kelly was married to actor Laurie Morton. The couple had two children, David and Miriam. Funeral arrangements will be announced later.

FAMILY SEARCH CHANGES, and CHANGES AGAIN!
The Link to the Classic FamilySearch Site is Gone!
STOP PRESS!!!
What was gone, has returned .. there is now a link
on the new site, back to the old site!!!!!
February 7, 2012 - 8:44am by AndersonSF
We've heard from many of you telling us that the link to the Classic FamilySearch
site no longer appears on the home page.
This was not intentional and we apologize for the premature removal of this link.
However, after careful consideration we've decided not to replace it. The reason
for this is because in the very near future, we will remove the Classic FamilySearch
site entirely. When that happens, the link to that site will no longer be needed.
The shutdown of the Classic FamilySearch site will take place after we have
completed the addition of some of our improved and new site features.
We also need to finish transferring all of our data to the new site. Until we make
that move, you can still get to the Classic FamilySearch by typing

Watch a Video of the 2011 St Patrick's Day Parade Brisbane!
The History....
History indicates that the Saint Patrick's Day Parade first started in Brisbane in the 1890's and was a Brisbane annual event up until WWII.
Parade organisers of the 1890's met to organise the Parade at what was then, the Valley Hotel.
In 1989 Jan Dooley, founder of Brisbane's first Irish pub and an Irish descendant decided to re-establish the Saint Patrick's Day Parade much to the delight of the Queensland Irish community and the thousands of people who turn up each year to cheer it on. Today the Parade is administered by the The Irish Club (Queensland Irish Association), Queensland's longest running national association. The Club has been in existence for over 100 years and is the hub of Irish culture and activity in Brisbane, ensuring the relevance and cultural integrity of the Saint Patrick's Day Parade.
A large percentage of Queenslanders have some Irish heritage thanks to our convict beginnings and our immigrant policy of last century. Even if you're not Irish or have no Irish roots it seems throughout Queensland there has always been a strong cross cultural affiliation with the Irish. Maybe it's because Queensland has always been a place in which you may have been taught by an Irish brother or nun, your local policeman or publican was an Irishman or the local shopkeeper was Irish. You may have cut cane or knew a farmer who was Irish or you may have worked the railroad, had a drink with or heard a great story from someone Irish.
Regardless of race or religion Saint Patrick's Day has always been a popular day for celebration in Queensland. The Parade's main vision is to celebrate and honour the feast day of Saint Patrick. In doing so the Saint Patrick's Day Parade also works to educate, promote and celebrate the contribution of Irish immigrants and their descendants to Queensland. It is about fun, music and the craic and welcoming anyone and everyone to celebrate and enjoy a day of celebration. It's a way of sharing with the wider community a culture that has been a major influence in the development of our Queensland and Australian way of life.

Bird strike in Milas-Bodrum Intl. Airport (LTFE), Turkey. | Rating: 5!
The video shows ILS approach, landing and taxi of a heavy business jet Challenger 604 on runway 28 of Milas-Bodrum Airport (IATA: BJV, ICAO: LTFE). It is an international airport that serves the Turkish towns of Bodrum and Milas. The airport is situated 36 km northeast of the town of Bodrum, and 16 km south of Milas. A spacious new international terminal was completed in 2000.
The old terminal, now reserved for domestic flights, is 1 km away, a 15-minute walk across a grassy field. The terminals host about 2.5 million travellers per year, and are especially busy during the peak summer tourism months when charter flights arrive frequently from major cities in Europe. Aerodrome has a single concrete-surface runway 45m x 3000m long.
The second closest airport to Bodrum is Kos International Airport, 70 km to the SW, accessible by boats from Bodrum across a 20 km stretch of the Aegean sea.
A new terminal, designed to handle 5 million passengers a year, opened in June 2012 and operation of the airport was transferred to a private company who run the airport on behalf of the Turkish Government. The terminal itself is now large and spacious with additional seating and two outdoor smoking areas which can be accessed, from the departures lounge. Improvements were made to the check in area and the former international terminal was converted into a domestic terminal.
ILS approach for RW28 on video carried out by summer cloudy day in light windy weather conditions. At 11:59 you can see a birdstrike happened under the right sidewindow's left corner (see screenshot nr.1). Taxiing ends on the parking stand number 29 of the apron.
The video was filmed by GoPro 3 camera.
