"Sadly, Come Fly with Me proves that British television comedy is at a very low ebb."
Colin Mehigan
"I liked it and so, oddly enough, did everyone else in a house with an age range of 15 to 85. As entertainment it seems to have worked."
Richard Curtis
"The most dire piece of television from the festive season. At best cringeworthy, at worst racist."
Millie Riley
"Give me a break... have we forgotten how to laugh at ourselves? Can we not portray funny characters from other parts of the world without been cast as racist? The British were the butt of many of the jokes too. Was I offended? Nope. I was too busy chuckling."
Joanne Panayi
"Not funny enough to be a parody, not realistic enough to be a reality show. Just a mess."
Cathal McQuaid
"I did find it quite amusing. What can I say? I'm easily entertained."
Nikki Jayne Guest
"If you tolerate this, your children will be next."
Habib Anibaba
"Venom and menace... funny and cruel. Worth watching."
Ade Akinboyewa
"Good costumes, good characters, but missing that certain zing. Although there were plenty of characters I didn't find one that really grew on me. Some of the stereotypes have been done so many times it becomes tedious."
Nadja Nüs-sqen
"Really refreshing comedy from the BBC. For once this was not a poor sitcom that appealed to the middle classes, looking at everyday situations like meeting your mother and falling over. Come Fly with Me is not racist. Does comedy have to follow the politically correct agenda, where the thought of offending anyone is subject to mass disapproval?"
Liam Beattie
"Hardly refreshing – more like rehashed Little Britain."
Paul Whitehouse
"I watched the two episodes and I didn't raise a smile once, let alone laugh. Matt and David, if you're going to do satire then have the balls to find a subject that is controversial and hard hitting. This was a vanity project that the BBC really shouldn't have funded. That said, I can't get over the fact that this most benign of shows has sparked a discussion on racism."
Paul Price
"It's a rather accurate (if slightly over-exaggerated) parody of those airline shows on channels like Sky Three and Fiver. Those who say it's racist need to take the stick out of their backside. It's only a bit of fun, after all."
Becca Dunn
"England is multi-cultural and they are trying to make us all laugh... whether they are successful is a different matter."
Farzana Ahmad
"OK to pass the time, but nowhere near as good as Peep Show and How Not to Live Your Life."
Mark Brown
"Those who find this show offensive are politically correct numpties. If you don't like it, don't watch it. I like anyone who offends people like you."
David L Malatesta
"It is what it is... I didn't tune in expecting to see The Thick of It."

The role of socio-demographic factors on self-rated happiness: The case of Malaysia
This study examines the role of socio-demographic determinants on individual's level of happiness. Primary survey data on Penang, Malaysia is used for analysis. Based on the findings, being married and Malay are associated with higher probability of feeling very happy or happy. Nevertheless, individuals who suffer from chronic diseases are more likely to have unhappy or very unhappy feelings. The rest of the factors such as income, education, age, gender, and employment status are found to have insignificant effects on happiness. Several policy implications can be recommended based on the outcomes.

Since I'm from Austria I had to attend the KDevelop/Kate sprint which is held in Vienna this year. Thanks to Joseph for organizing the sprint. We are having a great time here - hacking all day long...
After two days I have been productive and implemented a few small but still possibly useful features.
Since quite some time the project view supports moving items using drag and drop. However copy was not supported. I added there a drop menu allowing you to copy - and as a side effect also allow you to cancel an accidental move operation.
The second new feature is similar: it gives you the possibility to copy/paste items in the project view through the clipboard. Even pasting files that where copied eg. in dolphin is supported.
The third one is bookmark support for the filesystem view - just a kate has it. The bookmarks are stored per session. This can be useful for web developers to store the fish:// locations of test/production servers for quick access.
And last but not least, it is now possible to add two filesystem views - which might be useful to connect to test/production server.
All features can be found in master branch and will not be in the recently released KDevelop 4.4. But 4.5 will follow early next year...

Good stuff, thanks!ReplyDelete
I wonder: I have a strange recollection that back in KDE3 times, KDevelop's filesystem would integrate with the VCS plugins and highlight files that have been modified but not committed. Is my recollection correct, and is this functionality present in the KDevelop 4 series?
Cheers :)Replies
We have a VCS changes view that does basically that. But it's not integrated in the filesystem or project view.Delete
Of course there are some good positive parts to consider before we actually go to write something and then by moving forward to the point there would almost come more priorities regarding your contexts. html to wordpress conversionReplyDelete

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
we did not sue yet
the driver who hit me is 100% liable
Strongly suggest you try to resolve the issue with your current attorney first. If that cannot be accomplished then you should interview a few attorneys before making a change. You have an absolute right to change and it will not cost you an additional fee. Usually there may be a simple miscommunication.
Personal injury cases only; I'm good at it; you be the Judge! All information provided is for informational and educational purposes only. No attorney client relationship has been formed or should be inferred. Please speak with a local and qualified attorney. I truly wish you and those close to you all the best. Jeff www.nyelderinjurylaw.com
Your current lawyer may not have a lien if case not in suit. Again, always see if your reason to switch is warranted.
Yes. Retain someone you are comfortable with and he/she will make arrangements with the out going attorney. Be sure that the reason you want to change rests with lawyer and not expectations that will never be achieved. In case it's the latter, you will never be happy with any lawyer you choose.
Disclaimer- The information you obtain at our web-site or through postings on such sites as this is not, nor is it intended to be, legal advice. You should consult an attorney for specific advice regarding your individual situation. Any response given here is not intended to create, nor does it create an ongoing duty to respond to questions. The response does not form an attorney-client relationship, nor is it intended to be relied upon as legal advice. The response given is based upon the limited facts provided by the person asking the question. To the extent additional or different facts exist, the response may change appropriately.
Yes, you may change. However, make sure it is for the right reasons as discussed above.
Please note that we are not forming an attorney - client relationship and the advice is meant to be general. Law Offices of Joel J. Kofsky 1616 Walnut Street Suite 2110 Philadelphia, PA 19103 http://www.phillyinjurylawyer.com/
A client always has the right to change lawyers, even if for no vaild reason, but follow the wisdom of Mr. Post's commentary and make sure your decision to change is because of a lack of confidence in what your lawyer is doing versus an unrealistic expectation that no lawyer will likely wind up meeting, If you are going to switch lawyers, it is best to do it quickly particularly since your lawsuit has not actually been filed yet.

The short answer is yes you can change counsel. The long answer is that most other lawyers are not going to touch the case unless your current lawyer puts in writing that he will waive any fee liens. You see, a personal injury lawyer on contingency is entitled to be paid in quantum merit (in part) for the work he did on the case. What could happen is that your new lawyer gets the case, settles it, and ends up in a fee dispute with the other lawyer. I would take the case so long as the other lawyer waived any fee lien, or you agreed to pay any additional fee that lawyer would be entitled to out of your recovery.

That very first day that we met
It's a feeling I'll never forget.
All the experiences that we've shared,
I knew right away that you were rare.
You see, it's hard to find a someone like you,
Usually they're too good to be true.
Though I should've entered with more ration,
But with you I felt so much passion.
I wish those things had never happened.
It feels as though my love's been abandoned.
All I wanted was to make you happy,
So why is it that I have to feel so crappy?
I want nothing more than for us to move on,
But it's so hard now that the trust is gone.
I want to get past this, I really do...
What can I do to make you be true?
My love for you is like an undying flame.
And I once wished for our love to remain.
Do you remember that day, the day that it snowed?
It's the day that I wished for our love to grow.
You hurt me that night, you need to know that you did.
And I need you to know that I can forgive.
But I'm really struggling with trying to forget,
Because I still feel the same as that first day we met.

Jason Shingleton and Kyle Wuchterl joined Benefield in the final round. Sonic Drive-In sponsored the event by donating $1 per home run to the winner's charity of choice. Benefield chose to donate the $268 to Veteran's Memorial Monuments.

Kimiko Date Krumm of Japan, who may have set a new record for length of time away from professional tennis when she began playing again after 12 years and who is currently competing in the U.S. Open qualifying tournament, answered Bonnie D. Ford's questions via e-mail.
Bonnie D. Ford: You stayed physically fit during your retirement, but how much work did you have to do to be in shape for top-level tennis?
Kimiko Date Krumm: Before returning to the court, I had personal training sessions three-four times a week. However, since I cannot just think about training and building up my physique considering my current age, I spent a considerable amount of time for recovery. As I am currently in the midst of a season, it is quite difficult to find time for serious training, but I try to find time as much as I can to keep it up.
Ford: Was it also difficult to get yourself mentally ready? I would like your opinion on the psychological challenges of competing again after such a long time.
Krumm: The first year that I returned back on court, my goal was to compete in the All Japan Tennis Championships. Thus, I wasn't thinking about going back on WTA Tour, so obviously I hadn't had much preparation mentally back then. I started out with the ITF tournaments in Japan to get back my sense of competition, and as I played match after match, I was able to compete on a reasonable level in Japan, and was able to win both singles and doubles.
I did spend a lot of time thinking before I made my decision for this challenge. I contemplated things like whether I would be able to accept myself for not being on the level that I was in my teens, twenties, and when I was 25; whether I would be able to accept losing, moreover be able to accept a losing streak. I did spend a lot of time contemplating about this. Yet, after I made my decision to be back on court again and challenge myself, I haven't really thought about it.
Ford: Were you nervous about how well you would do when you came back?
Krumm: My goal was to first compete in the All Japan Tennis Championships. In the preparation process, I competed in ITF tournaments in Japan, and as I did so and remembering how it was like in the past, my feelings for WTA tour and Grand Slams had grown. But back then, I never even dreamt of challenging myself in competing at the Grand Slams qualifying [or] being on a world tour. So I feel what I have achieved until now has been beyond my imagination.
Ford: In interviews this year, you have said you sometimes felt lonely and pressured as a younger player, and can enjoy playing more now. Would you change anything about the way you handled your career when you were younger?
Krumm: There has been a lot of changes in many aspects since my first eight years of my career ['89 to '96]. There were less direct flights to major cities in the world during [the] late '80s and early '90s, which obviously made travel time much longer, and the world felt much more far compared to now. Now, there are more direct flights and the world seems much closer.
Technological advancement, such as computers and Internet in which I can get almost any information on a real-time basis and be connected to home and to my loved ones, is also one of the aspects that help me not feel lonely on the tour. Also, adding on years to my age has also changed me and matured me, as I see things differently now and am able to accept things more, thus don't feel lonely or feel too far away from home.
When I look back, if I were that age at this time frame, I may have had different perspectives. Yet, I feel my age has a lot to do with the way I am now. How I was back in the days was who I was at that time, so I don't think I could handle things the way I do now even if I were younger at this time.

That makes a great deal of sense... In planting an Artemesia 'Guizo' <sp?>,
a couple of years ago, a small piece broke off the original plant. Instead
of tossing it out, I just poked it into a back corner of one of the beds and
ignored it. Well, the original plant has never been great - the 'broken'
piece not only took root but is almost three times the size of it's mother
plant and beautiful despite having an inferior location with less sun.

Why is an amended soil sometimes bad? Roots are adapted to the
soil they are in So if there is large difference between the garden
soil and your amendement/ the soil in the pot, the roots are not fit
for your garden soil They dont make new roots because they
already have roots but of the wrong kind!. I would suggest amend
the soil but use a fifty fifty mix of the garden soil and your amended
soil. I once had a small sedum plant with roots from the wild. It
refused to grow Then I made a cutting from the same plant without
any roots and off it went.

Rusty Roof Replacement - 1968 Cougar

In this video, Andrew takes matters into his own hands to replace his rusted roof skin with a solid donor roof from another car. He is by no means a restoration expert, just an amateur trying to save some money and save his car. Need a roof or other body panels for your classic Cougar? West Coast Classic Cougar has it all.

Prevailing Winds
For decades, Big Energy blew off renewable energy as insignificant. Now the industry's biggest players are racing to build wind farms -- and cash in on the latest energy boom.
If Ben Givens ever needs reassurance that his bosses at American Electric Power (AEP) -- the country's biggest generator of electricity and a leading coal-mining company -- support his work to develop wind energy, all he has to do is whip out his company credit card. There on its face, pictured beside an image of belching smokestacks, is a cluster of huge, pinwheel-like turbines. "Pretty cool, huh?" says Givens, who operates the company's three wind farms in Texas. "We're finally hitting the big time!"
The credit card might seem like a public-relations ploy. But behind the green imagery is a remarkable corporate about-face: After decades of belittling wind as a puny and unreliable energy source, AEP and other major companies are scrambling to cash in on what is now the world's fastest-growing source of electric power. Multinationals like Shell and General Electric are investing hundreds of millions of dollars in wind operations from Washington state to Massachusetts. Last year, energy firms spent a record $1.7 billion on wind projects in the United States, increasing wind power capacity by some 60 percent, to more than 4,200 megawatts -- enough to provide electricity to 1 million homes. (By comparison, solar photovoltaic cells currently supply about 200 megawatts.) "The big players who didn't give a hoot about this a few years ago are finally getting in the game," says Ronald Lehr, a former Colorado public utilities commissioner and a wind energy expert. "Which is precisely what's needed to make wind a viable energy source."
Even with the recent growth, wind power fills only about one-half of 1 percent of the country's total electricity demand; the European Union, with a total population only about one-third larger than the United States, has four times as much wind power capacity and plans to obtain 22 percent of its electricity supply from renewables by 2010. Yet a growing number of industry experts say it is the United States -- with its huge electricity market and its vast, windswept plains and blustery coastlines -- that has the greatest potential to reap power and profit from wind. And perhaps nowhere is the trend more apparent than in Texas -- home to many of the nation's oil companies and their longtime champion, George W. Bush.

This film is good and informative, but not to the level of votes it has
received. The protagonists accomplished some good by focusing their
AIDS/HIV education efforts on a high school in Swaziland. But they
should be slapped for advancing an abstinence program when there's so
much data indicating they don't work. Surprise, it turns out they are
some stripe of missionary Christians (ballot stuffing by whom likely
accounts for the very high scores this film has received on IMDb). In
fact, many of the health officials interviewed describe numerous social
and economic reasons why preaching abstinence would be useless here,
but the producers/missionaries never seem to clue into that.
Dear Francis also subjects us to some fervent prayers that mostly reveal their misunderstanding of the situation. Aside from these serious and annoying drawbacks, the film is pretty good. Hairy scary factoid: of 35 people tested daily at the local health clinic, about 30 are HIV positive.

Finnis on Justice
John Gardner
University of Oxford - Faculty of Law
June 11, 2012
John Keown and Robert George (eds), Reason, Morality, and the Law: The Jurisprudence of John Finnis (Oxford: Oxford University Press 2012)
Oxford Legal Studies Research Paper No. 29/2012
In Natural Law and Natural Rights (1980), Finnis offers a famous treatment, with Thomist roots, of the subject-matter and the departments of justice. I have doubts about whether he gets either the subject-matter or the departments exactly right. In this paper I offer a rival treatment of both, with roots in Aristotle unmediated by Aquinas. Finnis later came to doubt the Thomist departments of justice. I argue that he was right to do so but that he overreacted by doubting all attempts to departmentalize justice. I stand up for the Aristotelian departmentalization. I nevertheless credit Finnis with important insights concerning the relationship between justice and law.

In most areas, there is an organisation that works to protect the safety of a child and their family. They investigate claims of maltreatment, make judgements on the levels of risk to a child and decide on a course of action. Accurate and unbiased judgements and decisions are crucial. Unnecessarily removing a child from their home may be detrimental to the family bond, while leaving a child in a place of potential harm may make them the victim of abuse.
As part of my Bachelor of Psychological Science (Honours), this year I am writing a thesis on 'Decision Making within the Child Protection Context'. Basically, I'm aiming to create a theoretically based and empirically supported report on how different individual factors influence the judgements and decisions of child protection practitioners. This information will be then used to support a workshop for child safety practitioners that aims to improve their judgements and decisions. At the moment, I'm collecting a 'community sample' that will be used to compare against the results of a 'professional sample' (individuals who work within chid safety).
If you could complete my survey then that would be very helpful! It takes approximately 20 minutes. However, once you begin the survey you can not save and return to it (it needs to be completed in a single session). First you will complete a battery of questionnaires and then read a case scenario and respond to questions about it. The survey has been adjusted to be relevant to members of the community (who don't work within child safety). And, of course all data collected is anonymous.
The link to the survey is- http://tinyurl.com/CPCommunity
If you have any questions, then feel free to ask. My thesis will be ready in October for anyone that wants to read about the outcome of this research!
Thank you for your help!!

The story of how the original blemish balm creams became a 'household name' cosmetic item throughout the world illustrates how innovation can jump across geographical borders and take decades to develop into a popular consumer product.
Originally, blemish balms were created by a German company to protect, soothe and help regenerate skin after surgery. Samples of the creams were taken to Korea by nurses in the late 1970s who had been working in Germany, and these became popular as cosmetics, primarily by word of mouth. During the 1980s and 1990s, blemish balms gained popularity in Asia and by the late 2000s, blemish balms (or BB creams as they are commonly known) were one of the most popular cosmetic products in Japan. In the last couple of years, BB creams have travelled back to Europe and the West, and are now a popular way of producing a quick, effective, even skin tone. However, as the original medical product was refined to a cosmetic, once again the blemish balm is being refined. BB creams managed to fit the need for quick, easy-to-use cosmetics (the 'Turbo Beauty' trend), enabling consumers to adjust colour while moisturising their skin. The new breed of creams, known as colour control (CC) creams, aim to retain these qualities while enhancing the skin care benefits and the quality of coverage on the skin. Additionally, CC creams are said to be less oily, resulting in fewer problems with spots, and offer a greater brightening effect. Currently, CC creams have only been launched in Asian markets. The highest profile of these was Chanel's launch this year of CC Cream (Complete Correction) on the Chinese market. However, the likelihood is that the trend will soon transfer across the globe in much the same way as the BB is currently doing.
The transition from Asia to Europe
The initial popularity of BB creams was largely based on their ability to even the appearance of Asian skin tones. So, as BB creams have made their way back to Europe (and the US), modifications have had to be made to formulations in order for them to suit the ethnic profile of the consumer base. The introduction of these products has coincided with a growing desire among European consumers for cosmetic products to appear more natural on the skin, so people are starting to use BB creams in place of a foundation, which would have a much 'heavier' look. The ability of BB creams to offer luminosity will appeal to people wanting to revitalise the appearance of their skin, producing a younger, healthier look. The added benefits of CC creams are likely to find considerable support in Europe as well. With people working longer hours, a single product that can potentially be a genuine replacement for a moisturiser, foundation, anti-ageing cream, concealer, skin lightener, with SPF protection, will perfectly meet the requirements of timestarved individuals. In many ways, BB and CC creams are the ultimate multifunctional cosmetic product.
Formulation challenges
In an article published in the November 2011 issue of Personal Care Asia Pacific,1 BASF discussed the particular challenges of formulating BB creams. These include achieving: "…the right combination of pigments for Asian skin types, incorporating a high pigment content into a homogenous emulsion system, and ensuring that the product has the right sensory properties." The article also pointed out that BB creams were originally W/Si emulsionbased, but over time O/W emulsion-based creams became more popular. In O/W emulsions, it is recommended to use untreated pigments as they are hydrophilic. The main consideration from a formulating perspective is that although BB creams feature colour enhancing or corrective qualities, they fall firmly into the skin care category rather than colour cosmetics, and therefore need to exhibit suitable attributes. Whereas W/Si emulsions are common formats for colour cosmetics such as foundations, the market preference for skin care emulsions, particularly facial skin care, is for the lighter O/W emulsion option. In short, the key challenge is to effectively differentiate the formulation so it is a lightly pigmented skin care emulsion, and not simply a diluted foundation. Why is that a challenge? As the BASF article rightly pointed out, skin care emulsions have evolved to be carefully balanced formulations to deliver the desired application properties, drying time, in-use feel and after-feel. The preference, particularly in Europe, is for lighter and less oily emulsion bases. The challenge comes with successfully incorporating pigments of the right type, at the right levels and importantly without compromising the emulsion aesthetics. What is the answer? Hydrophilicallytreated pigments offer a very good start, although it is important to evaluate whether they still give the desired level of coverage. Achieving the correct level of pigment delivery and distribution onto the skin is not an easy task. The oil phase composition and level offers a big challenge, as depending on the chosen pigments will require the presence of effective solvents to achieve suitable dispersion. Emolliency is of course key in order to retain the desired aesthetics so the choice and combination of oils, esters and waxes will require careful balance. Polar esters such as those found commonly in sun care formulations are known to work well with pigments yet also retain pleasant and light emolliency. Some emulsifiers and waxes, including micronised powders (polyethylene etc.) are perfect options to offer suitable emulsion structure and effective pigment dispersion. The aqueous phase will need consideration, as your usual preferred hydrocolloid may be incompatible or compromised by the introduction of pigments into the formulation. The presence of one or more hydrocolloids is of course vital for ensuring emulsion stability but they also typically play a key role in providing the desired rheology and aesthetics. Often natural gums are better equipped to cope with pigments, but inclusion rates are of course vital to prevent the likelihood of imparting inherent stickiness to the formulation. When starting a project to develop a BB cream, a good initial reference point is to study how some skin care brands have recently modified their formulations to incorporate high levels of UV filters. An example from UK is the Boots No7 brand, which was recently reformulated to ensure its skin care emulsions offer a minimum SPF 15 plus the highest level of UVA protection (5 star using Boots' rating system). Many of the same formulation challenges applied, as the potentially negative impact of UV filters on formulation structure/stability and aesthetics are virtually identical to those with pigments in BB creams. Of course with growing market and consumer expectation that daily-use skin care products carry suitable protection from UVA & UVB, it is likely your BB cream requires incorporation of the UV filters as well! By studying the ingredient lists and trying the emulsions, you will be able to understand how the challenges were addressed.
Blemish balms and colour control creams will continue to win supporters across the world from consumers looking to reduce the time it takes to complete their daily make-up regime, as well as those looking for a more natural look. By following some of the recommendations discussed in this article, hopefully others will be able to create exciting and effective creams in this interesting new sector of skin care and colour cosmetics. In summary, the main challenge when formulating a BB cream is to make sure the product retains its skin care identity and aesthetics, while successfully incorporating and delivering a suitable level of pigments. If the balance is not perfectly struck, the formulation is likely to either become a foundation, a less elegant skin care emulsion, or simply unstable.

Here too obviously, doesn't affect functionality, but *super* ugly.
Nexus S users just got 4.1.1 [1], just got it on my phone. Confirming same issue on my Nexus S.
[1] http://www.androidcentral.com/android-411-jelly-bean-ota-now-appearing-some-nexus-s-variations
The background texture is specified in windowBackground -- which is responsible for showing a screen right when the application icon is tapped in launcher.
The setContentView() happens "after" Gecko initialization currently.
So, the windowBackground and the setContentView() arent working in tandem!
One possible solution:
Remove windowBackground attribute.
Loss: Faster showing of the screen when icon is tapped.
This happens well before Gecko starts up.
I know this happens before Gecko starts up because it happens before loadGeckoLibs runs. I can start this in gdb, and the black flash happens before I even get a command prompt, which makes me think it's in Java.
I have also entirely failed to get the Android developer tools in Eclipse up and running so that I can debug this before Firefox starts on my handset. More trying tomorrow...
I gave up on debugging from the first launch in Eclipse, and just put a 30s delay at the beginning of GeckoApp.initialize().
I now know some things it definitely isn't, but I don't know what it is. Sriram had a theory that it's from quickly opening and closing the profile migration dialog, but I commented out that code and it didn't fix anything.
I thought this might have something to do with about:home, so I hooked my Galaxy Nexus up to an Eideticker box (thanks mdas!) and captured the output. Frequently, but not every time, about:home appears immediately after the black flash - i.e., the very next frame is about:home.
At this point, I am running up against the limits of my Android knowledge. I'm happy to learn more and continue debugging this, but I also wouldn't be offended if someone took this bug off my hands.
With absolutely no evidence to back this up, I would try disabling the GfxInfoThread code and see if that helps any. My half-baked theory is that the triple-buffering in JB tries to do something clever if it detects the app create a GL context and that causes some reinit to happen resulting in the black screen.
Actually, scratch that. The flash happens on 14 as well so it can't be because of that.
Some other things it isn't:
- GfxInfoThread :(
- Flash
- Form Assistant popup
I give up :(
Confirming that this black screen is from GL layer initialization.
I did a trace view and the time of flashing was just around GL layer initialization (took some 40 ms or so).
I suspected it and commented out code here: https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/file/tip/mobile/android/base/GeckoApp.java#l1827 to avoid GL layer initialization. The app started without any screen flickering on JB. (And the app crashed ofcourse :P).
Adding kats...
Commenting out that line kills a lot more than just GL layer initialization, it kills all of gecko startup...
I isolated the flash to this line of code:
Commenting it out makes it go away. I suspect it is GL-related, and android is doing something that causes the flash when we add the SurfaceView to the layout. I can dive through the android code to try to see what's going on, but I suspect the best way to fix it will likely involve moving that line of code so that the flash happens at a less noticeable time (either earlier during startup, or when we navigate to the first non-about:home page)
Created attachment 646597 [details] [diff] [review]
WIP - attempt at a fix
I tried to fix this by moving the layerview directly into the XML layout, so that hopefully the flash happens way earlier on startup and isn't noticeable. However for some reason this patch is throwing an NPE because the findViewById(R.id.layer_view) is returning null. I have no idea why. Sriram, any thoughts?
Also note that the Log.e I added to GeckoViewsFactory exposes some other errors that should be fixed.
NPE is because of this:
When LayoutInflater inflates, it requires this constructor:
CustomView(Context, AttributeSet);
You have supplied this: return new LayerView(context);
Please change it to take AttributeSet. The AttributeSet passed from GeckoViewsFactory can be null -- which is not a problem. (But I guess, in your case, it's better to pass the attrs you get to the LayerView, and the LayerView can call its super with attrs, so that the layout_params are set properly).

Review of attachment 646712 [details] [diff] [review]:
This is awesome! :)
I'm loving LayerView :)
I have some doubts:
Why should GeckoApp holds mLayerController? Why can't it hold mLayerView and get the controller from it. After this patch -- LayerController.setView() and LayerView.connect() -- I feel we can restructure it this way.
In GeckoApp.java:
LayerView mLayerView; is stored.
getLayoutController() {
return mLayerView.getLayoutController();
In LayerView.java:
public LayerView() {
LayerController = new LayerController(this);
In LayerController.java:
public LayerController(LayerView view) {
Basically GeckoApp holds mLayerView instead of mLayerController -- thereby it feels like holding a view than a controller for the view.
On a side note: Do we need those calls to getLayoutController() in other places? Is there a way to avoid it?
Looking into the code again:
1. Most of the places we do: layerController.getView().doSomething(). Instead layerView.doSomething() would be better.
2. getViewportMetrics() can be at LayerView and inturn return mController.getViewportMetrics().
3. convertLayerPointToViewPoint() and its converse can be at View level.
Basically the Controller and Renderer are more like "presentation" of the LayerView and can be known only to the view. The Activity and other dependent Views can get required values from LayerView.
Created attachment 646825 [details] [diff] [review]
I couldn't stop myself from experimenting this :P
This places LayerController and LayerClient inside LayerView. GeckoApp knows only about LayerView (just like a SurfaceView). And required calls are through LayerView.
GeckoLayerClient initialization happens at LayerView's creation -- not sure if this is right.
There are so many checks for LayerController being null. What's the possibility of this happening -- given that initialization of LayerController happens at creation of LayerView -- which inturn happens during inflation of XML -- which is during onCreate -- which makes me feel LayerController can never be null.
Note: Robocop tests might need to be changed to make sure it's not dependent on getLayerClient().
These are some good ideas but they should be done in a separate bug since they are refactoring that should not be uplifted, whereas this bug will need to be uplifted.
Also I have a long series of changes in the dependency list of bug 776030 that I've been working on which changes a lot of the gfx code. I will try to do this on top of that work, it will be much easier. One of the patches merges LayerController into GeckoLayerClient, for example.

Minusing this for now, but I can move it to a new bug and rebase it on top of bug 777351.

[Approval Request Comment]
Bug caused by (feature/regressing bug #): none
User impact if declined: there is an unsightly black flash when starting fennec
Testing completed (on m-c, etc.): on inbound
Risk to taking this patch (and alternatives if risky): mobile only. in theory it shouldn't be too risky by itself, but these types of changes (which change the order in which things are initialized) have a history of exposing more prominently races that already exist in the code. this might result in a higher crash rate, for example. i suggest letting bake on nightly/aurora for a few days before uplifting to beta.
String or UUID changes made by this patch: none

[Triage Comment]
Approving for Aurora 16, but I don't think we need to risk any new regressions on Beta (esp. given the fact that 14 was affected).
Giving that there are many jelly bean devices now -- and even Galaxy Nexus S got it! :O -- this is going to affect a lot of users. Why don't we want this for beta? The release is one month away, if I'm right.

It's the tradeoff between a black Flash and the possibility for bad race conditions that possibly aren't caught by the crash reporter. We'd need somebody from product to weigh in on the necessity of this fix.
(this feels cosmetic)
This is the first thing I noticed on upgrading to Jelly Bean and it's super-ugly. It's viscerally bad.
I don't know what our testing coverage is likely to catch or not catch so it's hard to make a call here. Can we get it into _a_ beta and pull it from the final beta if we're seeing a spike in crashes?
Also, is the risk as limited to Jelly Bean as the reward is?
I think this is not purely cosmetic but is also a perceived-performance issue, since our startup no longer feels instant and seamless.
The change that happened here is that the View in inflated in XML (like all other views) and then accessed in Java -- instead of creating in java and inflating into exisiting view.
The "creating in java" caused the black screen (of not death) in Jelly Bean. Now that it's in XML, we won't have any issues.
I'd like to see this patch in the next beta. That means we can observe Nightly and Aurora for a few days.
Matt is right about this being a perceived-performance issue and that is the _only_ reason I'd consider it for Fx15. I don't care about the super-ugly factor. We would just let it ride the trains if that was it.
Also, the patch is not too risky. Let's just watch Nightly and Aurora for any issues.

The perceived-performance issue is the super-ugly factor. If feels (and is) a broken start-up experience. That's just ugly.

OK - risk of startup regressions (without feedback from beta users) is what I'm most worried about. Sounds like this may be worth the risk, and we think we'll catch most new regressions through crash reporter.
We'll leave this nominated for beta and check back before the next build.
Comment on attachment 646712 [details] [diff] [review]
Let's get it into beta 4 and see what happens, with time to backout if needed.
Jumping into this thread now, for what it's worth. I'd really like to see this make it into the next beta so there's time to pull it if crash rates spike as a result. Whether it feels cosmetic or not, it's a very bad user experience and taints overall perception of the browser upon startup, not a place we want to be. Jelly Bean has been getting lots of press and upgrades are happening all around, so we want to do what we can to get the best experience we can.
This is approved for mozilla-beta and needs to be landed before EOD Pacific tomorrow to make it into the next beta. Please land asap.
Sorry for the delay, I was gone for the long weekend. Landed on beta:
Please note that this patch caused bug 769269 to be un-fixed by exposing an error in the code. Bug 780699 is tracking the regression and I have a patch that seems to work, but may need to be tweaked and tested more.
