Scaloid is an open-source library that enables Scala developers to create Android apps without having to migrate to Java. Scaloid takes full advantage of many of Scala's features, such as the efficient way of creating Domain Specific Languages (DSLs), implicit conversions, pattern matching, and type safety. Scaloid proposes a novel method of developing Android apps, which is worth a second look. In this lead article of a two-part series on Scaloid, I explain some of its most interesting features.
Simplifying Android Code with Scala Features
Scaloid focuses on simplifying and reducing the required Android code as much as possible while taking advantage of type safety. You can make incremental use of many Scaloid features in your Android projects because you can mix Scala and Scaloid with Java and the Android API.
Think of Scaloid as a library that provides shortcuts to tasks that usually require a large amount of code. Scaloid replaces the XML layout description required by the Android SDK as well as the Java code that specifies the logic with a single piece of Scaloid code that uses a Scala DSL. In this way, you can build a UI layout by writing type-safe Scala code and wire your logic into the layout. However, you will use Scaloid to access widgets defined in XML layouts, so you can continue working with XML layouts if you don't want to make a big paradigm shift in your Android development process.
There is an automatic layout converter that translates an Android XML layout description into a Scaloid layout at http://layout.scaloid.org. The converter is still a beta version and might lose some precision during translation. However, the converter allows you to easily start working with Scaloid layouts using your existing knowledge of Android XML layouts, and you can still use the graphical layout designers provided by your favorite IDE.
Figure 1 shows a very simple Android UI with two
TextView widgets, two
Password fields and a
Button widget in a
LinearLayout with a vertical orientation.
Figure 1: The graphical layout designer in Eclipse with an Android UI preview.
The following code shows the XML for the UI. It includes hardcoded strings in order to make it easy to understand the conversion to a Scaloid layout. However, as you already know, you shouldn't use hardcoded strings for the UI in real-world apps.
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" android:id="@+id/item_detail_container" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" tools:context=".ItemDetailActivity" tools:ignore="MergeRootFrame" > <LinearLayout android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:orientation="vertical" > <TextView android:id="@+id/textView1" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="Enter your password" /> <EditText android:id="@+id/password" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:ems="10" android:inputType="textPassword" > <requestFocus /> </EditText> <TextView android:id="@+id/textView2" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="Repeat your password" /> <EditText android:id="@+id/passwordConfirmation" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:ems="10" android:inputType="textPassword" /> <Button android:id="@+id/login" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="Sign in" /> </LinearLayout> </FrameLayout>
If you paste the XML code in the layout converter at http://layout.scaloid.org and you click on
Submit, the results of the translation will be the following lines of Scala code:
override def onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState) contentView = new SFrameLayout { this += new SVerticalLayout { STextView("Enter your password").<<.wrap.>> SEditText().inputType(TEXT_PASSWORD) STextView("Repeat your password").<<.wrap.>> SEditText().inputType(TEXT_PASSWORD) SButton("Sign in") }.<<.fill.>> } }
The layout description with Scaloid (see Figure 2) is greatly reduced compared with the XML code. As you might guess by reading the code, the Scaloid UI definition adds an
S prefix to the equivalent Android SDK classes. For example, Scaloid defines the
SFrameLayout class in the
org.scaloid.common package.
SFrameLayout is a concrete helper class of
Figure 2: An Android device emulator displaying the UI generated with the Scaloid code.
The Scala code requires the
import org.scaloid.common._ import line, and the overridden
onCreate method must be placed in a class that extends the
SActivity (
org.scaloid.common.SActivity) trait. I'll discuss the creation of a Scaloid project from scratch later, but for now, I want to focus on the way Scaloid defines the UI.
The classes with the
S prefix, known as prefixed classes, allow you to use Scala-style getters and setters because they provide the necessary implicit conversions. In addition, these classes provide the instance of
Context as an implicit parameter. As you already know, there are many methods in the Android API that require an instance of the
Context class, and the implicit parameter simplifies the usage of these methods in the prefixed classes. You can declare an implicit value to represent the current context or extend the
SContext trait that defines the implicit value. Because the code defines the
onCreate method within a class that extends
SActivity, the implicit value is already defined.
SActivity extends
Activity with
SContext and other traits, as you can see in the following declaration:
trait SActivity extends Activity with SContext with TraitActivity[SActivity] with Destroyable with Creatable with Registerable {
By reading the Scala code, it is easy to see that you have a
SFrameLayout with a
SVerticalLayout that includes the following five widgets, and you don't need to scroll because the code requires just a few lines:
All the prefixed classes that extend Android widgets have a companion singleton object that implements
apply methods with different parameters, which create the new component and append it to the layout context that encloses it. For example, the
SButton class is the helper class of
android.widget.Button, and there is also an
SButton object with four
apply methods. You need only write the following line to add a button and set its text to "Sign in."
SButton("Sign in")
This way, you can take advantage of the shortcuts and you don't need to write more code to achieve the same effect, as in the following two lines:
button = new SButton() text "Sign in"
this += button
In the following line, notice the use of two methods:
<< and
STextView("Enter your password").<<.wrap.>>
<< method returns an object of the
android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams type that provides many methods and setters in the context of the inner-most layout. In this case, the inner-most layout is
SVerticalLayout. Scaloid uses the following default values for the
LayoutParams object:
width: FILL_PARENT
height: WRAP_CONTENT
The default code would be similar to the following line:
STextView("Enter your password").<<(FILL_PARENT, WRAP_CONTENT)
Scaloid uses two methods to provide shortcuts for frequently used values of
width and
fill: Sets width to
FILL_PARENTand height to
wrap: Sets width to
WRAP_CONTENTand height to
The following lines are equivalent. One of them uses
wrap and the other sets the
width and
height values:
STextView("Enter your password").<<.wrap
STextView("Enter your password").<<(WRAP_CONTENT, WRAP_CONTENT)
>> method allows you to return the original object. Thus, the following line creates a new
TextView widget, sets its
text to "Enter your password," appends the widget to the enclosing
SVerticalLayout, sets the width and height values for its
LayoutParams object, and finally assigns the
STextView instance to the
textView1 variable.
val textView1 = STextView("Enter your password").<<.wrap.>>
In the Scaloid code that defines the UI, you will notice that the
SVerticalLayout declaration ends with the following line:
This way, the code sets the width and height values for the
LayoutParams object of the
SVerticalLayout instance, and then goes back to this instance.
You can also interact with a UI defined with classic XML by using the
find method and specifying the widget type. For example, the following line retrieves the
signIn button from the UI definition:
val button = find[Button](R.id.signIn)
This is equivalent to the following longer code:
val button = findViewById(R.id.signIn).asInstanceOf[Button]
The clear disadvantages of accessing UI widgets with either the
find or
findViewById methods are that the code is not type-safe and you have to track the widget type. If you use the wrong widget type, there isn't going to be a compile-time error.

Below was in a comment on a blog post here and am hoping some of the readers may be able to help Sharon out.
From: Sharon Ellis email@example.com
My Sarah R. Howard was born around 1794 in Scott County, Kentucky, which is where Georgetown, Ky is located, outside of Lexington. She married Lyman Merriman and moved with him to central Illinois, where they are buried.
Because the Scott Co. courthouse burned twice in the 1800s, there are not many records. When I've googled "Howard" + Scott County KY", the only Howard I've found is John Howard, John B. Howard, and John Bazel Howard.
John was listed as John B. Howard and John Bazel Howard on two early Scott Co Ky censuses. I think it was 1800 and 1820. He witnessed a will of a MD native (who was part of the Catholic immigration into that part of Ky) around 1808 or 1810 as "John Howard", if I remember correctly.
I didn't know if "Bazel" was a misspelling of Basil, or if it was a family name associated with the Howard family that was given to him as his middle name. Are you familiar with any Bazel family members who may have married into either the MD or VA Howard families? I've found people in MD with the Bazel surname and probably need to research the Bazel family to see if I find any intermarriage with the Howards.
My assumptions, which could be wrong, are that John Bazel Howard immigrated to Ky with part of the 65 or so Catholic families from MD who agreed to settle in Kentucky. Part settled in Nelson Co Ky below Louisville, and part of the group who didn't like Nelson Co settled instead in Scott Co, outside of Lexington.
I assume that Sarah R Howard was John Bazel Howard's daughter. I have no record of him moving to central Illinois, when Sarah "Sally" left Scott Co. with her husband and his family. in the early 1830s. I did once find a John B. Howard in Butler Co., Ky, (I think around 1840 or so). Butler Co is 150 mi. southwest of Scott Co. I didn't see an age for that John B Howard.
I'm hoping this will ring a bell, or that you will eventually stumble across something in all your Howard research that might provide a clue or two. Would love to see your Howard ancestors and their dates/locations listed, sometime.

I've been around for a couple months but I only noticed this page today so I'll 'officially' introduce myself finally. I've been a fan of the Simpsons since nearly the beginning and I will never tire of watching it. I heard about NHC long ago but was somewhat-recently reminded of it in an episode commentary so here I am. I am ashamed to say that I haven't been keeping up with recent episodes very well because I don't watch much TV anymore, and only follow a few shows that I catch online. My favorite episodes fall within seasons 3-10 but I would say the best seasons are 5-8. I'm already enjoying this site very much and I hope to interact with you all eventually!

What all does Global show anyways?
Hi there. Just found the forum today and decided to register. I'm 19 and I live in Portugal.
The Simpsons is the only TV program I follow and I've watched all 499 episodes. Even yesterday I re watched 'Hurricane Neddy' and 'Homer the heretic', as I prefer the ones that deal with religion.

Hi! The Simpsons, and to a lesser extent The Big Bang Theory are the only programs I follow.
Well I've already posted but what the heck!

Hi Dobbie!
hi dobbie how are you
Hi Dobbie, welcome to the board. Blimey there are indeed a lot of Canadians on here these days.
Yo Dobby Dob what up homie?
Hi NHC Forums,I am Beth from Illinois
I'm a regular watcher of the show,and I remember when it used to be on Tracy Ulman.
Welcome Beth.
Since I've send a few posts already I thought it was time I introduced myself to y'all
My name is Stitchje and live in Belgium, I've been a BIG fan of The Simpsons since they started showing their episodes on cable here!
We are a few seasons behind, which is not amusing to say something on post including seasons like 21 - 23 or even the 500th episode, but I'm sure I'll get a lot of info here of what I can expect
My second passion is Disney, as you can see on my nickname
I'm gonna enter the academy university next year here in Belgium for animation arts
Oh yeah I'm already 31, so I know some of you might be wondering "why go to college now?"
Well there are 4 animation universities here in Belgium: 1 was a dump that could break down any minute, onather I didn't get through the entering exams because I didn't do model drawing, third on, get this, I was too good to participate because I draw Disney like characters and the fourth I got flunked all over the line!
That last one hit me so bad that I just gave it up for 10 years, but then something happend that made me change my mind!!!!
In 2009 I got cancer and almost died. It was then I realised that I want to do what I wanted, so that's why I'm gonna try it once more and I'm not giving up this time
I first wanted to go to Calarts in California, but with $70.000 collage money + $20.000 for campus ( and then I'd still have no food etc....) I found that a little TOO high
$60.000 I could manage but $70.000 wow ( just kidding ) + you get a master year after those 4 years, how much was that gonna cost me
Ok and now I'm gonna stop talking
Or I'd write a whole book
So there you go

Target is recalling some children's two-piece pajama sets because they pose a burn hazard to children, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission said on Wednesday.
About 560,000 units of cotton and fleece pajama sets made by Makalot Garments Co. Ltd., of Taiwan, do not meet federal flammability standards for children's sleepwear, the CPSC said.
The garments don't meet the tight-fitting sizing requirements, the agency said.
The recall involves Target Circo and Xhilaration children's cotton or cotton/fleece two-piece pajama sets sold in infant and toddler sizes 12M, 2T, 3T, 4T and 5T, and in girls and boys sizes XS, S, M, L and XL. There are a variety of colors and designs, including stars, dots, skulls, peace signs, cats, owls, footballs and camouflage.
There's a complete list of the item numbers included in the recall on Target's website.
The garments were sold in Target stores nationwide and online at Target.com from August 2012 through November 2012 for between $8 and $13.
They were manufactured in Vietnam and Cambodia.
Consumers can return the pajamas to any Target for a full refund. For more information, contact Target at 800-440-0680 or Target.com.

I talked about the importance of silhouettes in making your poses read clearly.
Here are some great scenes from an old Terrytoon.
If you combine silhouettes with line of action, you can control your poses so that they tell the story well. Every pose should have a direction. Where you aim the body can tell you what the character is doing and what he is feeling. People tend to lean toward or away from things and where the lean helps give meaning to each moment.
Many cartoons today have no line of action or silhoettes. The characters just stand straight up and down. I see this even in a lot of full animation and in a lot of animation students' cartoon drawings.
In this animation, you can see the real value of clear staging using line of action and clear silhouettes. The limbs are kept in the clear.
CLICK HERE TO SEE CLIP! (3.29 mb)
Here we have no line of action and barely silhouettes:
Here's fake line of action:
Samurai Jack has a line of action.
The other characters have arched bodies which would make you think you are looking at a line of action, but the arches don't have direction. They don't aim or point anywhere. You need your characters to aim somewhere to have a line of action.
Here are some jumbled undirected poses from expensive modern cartoons to compare approaches.
I know the animators are totally capable of clear classic principles. I assume that it's the management that thinks if something looks classic, then it's too "cartoony" so they bend the artists towards what they think is more like what imagine live action is.
If you are thinking that those don't have line of action or silhouettes on purpose because they are "realistic" then take a gander at this Frazetta painting:
I think old school clear staging whether in cartoons or illustrations is more effective than modern stiff awkward stuff.
It's hard to stage a fat guy, but this drawing shows a lot of skill and thought. The line of action is clear even though the silhouette is not.
If you wanna see tons of old classic cartoons that you can't see anywhere else, you gotta visit Asifa's amazing animation archive. If you are in LA, be sure to drop in and experience cartoon heaven!
Or better yet, be a volunteer and help them archive all this great stuff.

As with all gastronomic delicacies, escargots exhibit varying levels of quality. Henri Marie's snails maintain an unwavering reputation for incomparable products. Their formula is quite simple. They begin with authentic Burgundy snails (Hélix Pomatia Linne), found only in the wild in southeastern France. They are then hand-sorted by size, washed, and cooked in an aromatic bouillon according to the same ancestral standards used in 1894.
There are 116 types of edible snails, and the Helix Pomatia Linne is the unanimously proclaimed champion in terms of flavor and texture. Nicknamed the "Land Lobster", it exhibits a similar texture to lobster, with an earthier flavor. These escargots are 100% natural, low-carb (Atkin's friendly), and very nutritious. This tin of "Very Large" size escargot contains 24 snails. They are the perfect size for serving as an hors d'oeuvre.

Exceeds Expectations!
" I went in expecting to purchase a used vehicle. I didn't even want to consider a new vehicle thinking it was out of my price range. Dave Sosnowski took the time to give me all of my options and was never pushy. I ended up getting a brand new car that I LOVE and can afford. He even took the time to make sure I knew how everything worked and was set up properly as far as connecting the blue tooth with my phone, etc. I highly recommend David Bruce Toyota. It was worth the hour drive to get there. "
I Had Wonderful Experience Purchasing a Used Vehicle
" I had been looking for a used Sienna, which they had on the lot. Janelle let my wife and I drive the vehicle around the area on our own and then gave us an excellent price. Because we live in DuPage County, she was able to get us in the vehicle and drive it home the same afternoon, and to give us extra keys. All in all, it worked out beautifully. "
Fantastic place, great customer service!
" This dealership was top notch! Tony went above and beyond to make sure I purchased the truck I was most comfortable with. He gave me suggestions and his advice, but was in no way pushy what-so-ever. After I decided on a truck the process was absolutely painless. So quick and professional. I felt like family by the end of the whole process! I would recommend David Bruce (Tony in particular) to anyone who is looking for a new or used vehicle. "
Laid Back No Pressure Environment!
" This was my first experience with David Bruce Auto. I learned of them through searching the net for a particular vehicle I was looking for, and they happened to have a potential "Keeper" for me. I was very apprehensive at first, not knowing anyone at the dealer, or the area. I live about 45 minutes away. I phoned the dealership to confirm that the vehicle I was interested in was still there, and I spoke with Tony Malzone, who informed me that it in fact was still available. I said I'd like to come on in and check it out, and he said, "Great. It'll be up front and ready for you when you get here." I can't say enough about Tony as my sales contact. He was outstanding. No slick sales gimmicks, no pressure, no attempts at manipulative ploys. Just great, accomodating service. It sounds like a cliche, but we hit it off like this guys been my buddy for years. And trust me, I'm a skeptical type of personality. I ended up purchasing the vehicle I was interested in, for a price that I was comfortable with. No hassles. Just civil, relaxed negotiations. Tony went above and beyond when I had questions about carafax info... He was able to locate original service records from original owner, of which detail could not be matched... Unbelievable! Gave me complete peace of mind, which we all know, is close to priceless. "
No Hassle!
" After reviewing several makes of cars .I once again decided on a toyota camry. Janelle made the buying experience pleasurable. I will use this dealership again. "
" I bought a pre-owned 2009 Jeep Wrangler. Contacting Dave Sosnowski was extremely easy (especially considering I live 4 hours away). Dave came in on his day off to sell me the vehicle, which I thought showed tremendous customer service. He had everything already set up for a smooth transaction and even suggested a restaurant for my friend and I to try, which was a great choice! Upon driving the vehicle home there was an unforeseen issue with the jeep. Dave had everything taken care of even on his day off. He turned what could've been a nightmare into a good experience and had his service department take care of everything for me. I can understand that issues happen, but it's how you handle those issues is what I see. Dave is worthy of any of my business and if I need anything in the future I would make the 4 hour trip to deal with him again! Thanks for everything you helped with during this transaction Dave! "
They're the BEST!!
" My parents always purchased their vehicles from Dave, and I purchased my first car from him. He was able to hook me up with a great deal, and is always there when I have questions or concerns! I would recommend Dave to anybody fresh out of college and is looking for a car! "
New Purchase!!
" I first met Janelle over 25 years ago at David Bruce. She has always gone above and beyond to help me find what I was looking for. Recently I was involved in an accident that totaled my 6 month old Rav. I found out I was losing my rental in 2 days so I called Janelle to see if she could find me another Rav. That same day she found me what I needed and the next day I was able to pick it up. Above and Beyond! "
Very Happy!
" My experience at David Bruce was excellent. I am the type to be suspicious of sales people of any kind, but Jason was very friendly, helpful, and honest! He worked with me on my trade and gave me a great deal on my "new" truck. We were still finishing up after closing hours and I did not feel rushed at all!! I'm so happy with my purchase! Thanks! "
Always Satisfied
" I have been buying my Toyota's from Janelle for years and each experience gets better and better. Janelle gets to know her customers and guides you through each step of the purchase. She is not satisfied until you drive off the lot fully knowledgeable of your vehicle and completely at ease. Thank you Janelle and David Bruce! "
Great Experience!
" Hi my name is Judy Barrie and my sales person was Dave Sosnowski and he was great! Buying a car from him was a great experience. I called him about a car I seen online on his day off and instead of calling me back the following day when he got into his office he called immediately back from his home. Now that is what you call great customer service. My husband recently purchased a car from him as well and I have to say Dave will be our family vehicle sales person for life. He has won the Barrie's trust in vehicles. Thanks Dave and A++++ service. "
Very Happy with My New Toyota Rav4!
" Dave Sosnowski is awesome! He was extremely easy to work with. He helped me get exactly what I was looking for in a new automobile. Very friendly dealership - would definitely recommend. "
Excellent Online Service
" A big thanks to Brandt and Dave Sosnowski for getting me my car at a great price. I truly appreciate the drivers who drove 312 miles one way to the middle of Missouri to make it happen too! Would definitely refer David Bruce Auto to anyone looking for a vehicle. "
Online Experience Excelllent!
" I loved being able to go online, choose the vehicles I was interested in, fill out the credit app and received a call from Dave Sosnowdki, our salesman. Within 15 minutes of filling out the app to schedule a test drive. It saves the pressure of going directly to the dealer and being pressured into something that I didn't want! This process was wonderful and we spent a total of about 1 hour at the dealership! I would recommend online shopping for anyone and Dave was extremely helpful!! "
Super Happy!
" didn't go in to buy a car. Only to get one fixed. Would have been to much. so I started browsing the floor. I came out 6hrs later with a new car. Same make and model. A 2015 SRX, love it!!! "
Just Awesome!
" Great people to deal with and Dave Sosnowski is very friendly. I was in an out in just under two hours now that's service. I would recommend them anytime. "
Quick and Painless!
" Brandt went above and beyond to accommodate my needs in purchasing my vehicle, Excellent knowledge of vehicles and very customer friendly. I feel even more satisfied knowing that he made sure I was in the right car for me, instead of just a car right now. Would highly recommend his expertise to anyone in the market for a vehicle. "
Excellent as Always!!
" We have purchased multiple vehicles from Dave Sosnowski and David Bruce Toyota and have consistently received superior customer service. We plan on continuing our relationship with David Bruce for many years to come and highly recommend them to anyone looking to purchase a new or used vehicle. "
Very Pleased with Experience!
" We had a very good experience vehicle shopping at David Bruce Toyota. Dave Sosnowski was very helpful and courteous. He didn't pressure us into purchasing a vehicle, but was very helpful as he assisted us in making the right purchases. We are very pleased with our vehicle and wanted to say "Thank you!" "
Excellent Shopping and Buying Experience with Janelle!
" Our car shopping experience could not have been any easier! Janelle was patient and listened to our needs and there was never any pressure to buy. Her customer service was outstanding and the entire David Bruce team was friendly and courteous. We will definitely be back to see Janelle! "

I would first like to thank The Fort Morgan Times for highlighting our tree "El Dia de los Muertos" in a positive way in the paper as one of the "most visited trees" at the Visions of Trees event this year.
Coming back from winning the non-commercial tree last year with our "fairy" theme, we felt we needed to come up with another unique idea for this year as a way to "top" our last year's tree.
We were very aware of the fact that our tree may be seen in a negative way, but to those who took the time to actually look at the tree would have noticed that we framed a typed explanation about "El Dia de los Muertos."
Unfortunately the negativity was expressed to my grandmother in the form of an unsigned/non-returnable letter that was sent to her residence. The letter questioned our Christianity as Catholics and stated that this person thought we were "devil worshipers," "they were appalled and disgusted by our lack of respect (or warped sense of humor)" and finally "we should be ashamed of our disgraceful display."
For this person who felt this way about our tree but did not take the time to do some research before going out of their way to disrespect my grandmother and my family, I will do you a favor by letting you have another chance to read about the ritual.
The Day of the Dead or El Dia de los Muertos is a traditional Mexican holiday celebrated on Nov. 2, All Souls Day. The holiday is dedicated to the memories of deceased ancestors, and the continuing cycle of life.
Perhaps because of the colorful rituals and skeleton imagery associated with the holiday, the Day of the Dead falls prey to a few common misconceptions. It is not a Mexican version of Halloween; in fact, it predates Halloween by many centuries.
It is a Catholic ritual accepted by the church and differs from All Saints Day due to the addition of Mexican folk culture. Observers of La Dia de los Muertos do not celebrate death, ghosts or devils, but instead celebrate the remaining relationship with our ancestors and loved ones who have died before us.

At Qt Developer Days 2013 Berlin, Digia has announced the Qt Mobile Edition, a cross-platform development offering for Android, iOS, and other mobile platforms. Qt Mobile promises multi-platform application development with a built-in Qt-optimized cloud backend service, Enginio.
Through the Enginio Qt API, developers can write native or hybrid applications for all your target platforms — the API can be used either through Qt/C++ or through a QML API. As with all Qt libraries, it is exactly the same code for all the target platforms.
Qt Mobile Edition will be available later this year following the release of the next major update to the framework, Qt 5.2, in December. Digia reminds us that Qt is the only software development framework that enables native application development across desktop, embedded, and mobile platforms supporting deployment on at least 14 leading operating systems across many processor architectures.
NOTE: Qt supports Android, iOS, and many challenger mobile OS platforms together with all major desktop operating systems, including Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux, and embedded operating systems such as embedded Linux, embedded Android, Windows Embedded, and RTOS.
Qt Mobile Edition Key Features
- Qt Mobile Edition libraries and development tools for unbeatable native performance and maximum developer efficiency
- Cross-platform environment for Android & iOS app development plus other mobile platforms to be added soon
- Cloud data storage and user management (Enginio Qt Cloud)
- Commercial development and deployment license protecting development investments and simplifying application distribution
Tommi Laitinen, SVP of international products, Digia Qt, commented, "Qt's ability to deliver impressive graphics is enhanced by the use of OpenGL ES, the version of the graphics application programming interface designed specifically for mobile devices and embedded systems. This makes it easier to develop and deploy rich graphics with velvet-like animations and transitions as well as smoothly rendered 2D and 3D animations on devices with relatively limited performance, such as mobile phones and tablets. In addition to the versatile Qt APIs, applications built with Qt can also use platform and device-specific APIs, giving the developer the freedom to integrate any functionality their application requires."

People's eyes widened at the idea. They snorted with laughter. They called me a hippie in a van (which I didn't mind at all).
I decided to take a week-long trip in my big black van for myself and my two young children while my husband stayed in Edmonton to work. Hey, it was summer, and we wanted an adventure.
Admittedly, camping in a van with two kids and only one adult does sound crazy. Few would knowingly place themselves far from comforts of hot water, change tables, phones and showers. And backup adult intervention.
Despite a few sleepless nights and unexpected events, van camping with my children from Edmonton to Panorama, B.C., was an experience I will always remember and be proud to add to my travel accomplishments. In terms of the unexpected, it was right up there with sleeping on an uninhabited island in Malaysia and boating down the Mekong River, though definitely not so glamourous.
The van wound its way from Edmonton to Bragg Creek, stopping for the first night at Paddy's Flat Campground in Kananaskis's Elbow River Valley. With no running water, preparing a bottle for my 10-month-old daughter was challenging. Travelling with children requires preplanning. A parent simply cannot say, "Sorry, honey, you can't have your bottle tonight. Sleep tight."
I had brought a Thermos, so anywhere I stopped along the way I would get the hottest water possible and hope it would stay that way until bedtime. Luckily, Julie was past the stage of boiling the water each time to make formula, although I did have a backpacking stove if I became desperate.
The first night we settled in nicely. My four-year-old son, Benjamin, loved the idea of sleeping in the van. To him, there was nothing better than biking around the campground and having my full attention. We were away from phone calls and computers and interruptions. He snored all night while I slept rather lightly, amazed that I had managed to re-shuffle a playpen, excer-saucer, three large bags of clothes and toys and a stroller in a manner that allowed us to still breath.
From there we went deeper into Kananaskis Country to Peter Lougheed Provincial Park. With full showers and a small restaurant (Boulton Creek), we decided to stay a few nights. We enjoyed the evening ranger interpretation at the outdoor amphitheatre and had some great walks around the lower Kananaskis Lakes. It was prime grizzly season, though, so I was careful to make lots of noise and to keep my eyes open.
One of the greatest challenges (for me) was showering. Such a simple luxury did not come easily, or often. In order for me to shower in the campground showers, I would place Julie into a kid-carrier backpack and bring her beside the shower. My son sat close by on a bench and entertained her with silly faces and Cheerio bribes.
I hovered under the water, with one hand scrubbing while the other balancing the backpack that contained my daughter. Needless to say, I didn't mind that the camp showers timed out after five minutes. Five minutes seemed like an eternity.
The backpack was a godsend during our hikes and walks in Kananaskis and as our journey continued into Radium, B.C., and on to Panorama and Invermere. My son loved the independence that came with riding his bike up and down mountain hills and even through the streets of Radium as we searched for ice cream shops.
We were disappointed to hear of the seemingly large number of bear and cougar sightings (and attacks). One day in Radium, we discovered a playground. After chatting with some local moms, I asked about hikes in the area. They looked at each other with concern and told me that it just wasn't safe for me to do with the kids. We were disappointed, but turned our sights to the Radium Hotsprings, which aren't too hot for children, and then to the infamous Radium Goat House.
The Goat House is truly one-of-a-kind; Rolf, the goat house owner, creates wood carvings with a surprisingly articulate tool: a chainsaw. He has two goats named Goofy and Spoofy, and is a self-proclaimed mountain man. His
carvings adorn his craft-shop/house, which has a grassy roof that feeds his pet goats.
In one area of his home there are numerous doors with messages on them, such as "emergency exit for beautiful women" and other similarly enticing statements. But once you open the door, a surprising blast of water quickly alleviates you of any pride. The most surprising door said "welcome to the rainforest."
As I cautiously turned the door handle, a full blast of water drenched my entire body and my son fell to the ground laughing while my daughter, now wet too, chimed in with baby-pitched squeals.
Being the only adult in charge does create some strain. One night I parked our home on wheels at the ski parking lot in Panorama. Ben and Julie were comfortably sleeping when the otherworldly and deep howl of wolves began to swallow the mountain air. Though I knew we were physically safe inside the walls of the van, the animal sound of the howls left me awake all night.
Despite the added responsibilities, I will always remember Julie and Ben playing in the muddy banks of Quarry Lake, a great swimming hole in Canmore near the Nordic Centre. And as we returned home past the Saskatchewan River Crossing on the Thompson Highway, hugged on one side by mountains and on the other by Abraham Lake with its 32 kilometres of impossibly blue reservoir water, I felt stronger as a parent and more attuned to my children.
We had spent time outdoors, in the open air and, well, having the ability to just play.
- - -
- Reading: Canadian Rockies with Kids: Exploring the Canadian Rockies with Children by Scott Regehr and Philip Smith. For a hiking book that covers must-do hikes, try Classic Hikes of the Canadian Rockies by Graeme Pole.
- Things to bring: I don't think I could have done it without a good, comfortable backpack to carry my daughter in. Strollers just won't cut it. A Thermos and stove are important for those who need to heat up milk or formula, and wipes are great for all the messes that are bound to happen.
- Cellphones often don't work in parts of the mountains, so have quarters and dimes on hand in case of emergencies.
Always heed bear warnings and check with ranger stations and park officers about animal activity. Make lots of noise (easy with children) and store food properly.
Grab a good road map for unexpected adventures.

Stanczyk writes to entertain and inform. Perhaps one day I will corral these thoughts into a genealogical book in some media — so I guess that is another reason I blog. To be sure though, I have said this blog is my family magnet. I am trying to draw distant cousins or people with affiliated families who may have pictures or clues to my family history — so I publish info and original research to draw, magnet-like, to me those who are "connected". Today I will give a Sunday appeal, by listing the churches/parishes where my family has congregated. Let me know if any of these are also yours…
I will start with my paternal grandparents since I know their parishes in Poland. In Biechow, my grandmother Walerya's parish is named: Wszystkich Świętych (All Saints). This is the parish where my grandparents were married in 1907. It is also the parish where their first child (Wladyslaw Jozef) was born in 1908 and probably Aleksandra (aka Alice) was born in that parish too. Aleksandra came with my grandmother in 1913 to the USA as a four year old.
My grandfather, Jozef Elijasz, was born in Pacanow, in the sw. Marcin (St Martin) parish. Once Jozef and Walerya came to the USA, they left a trail of churches, with family notations to dot the landscape across this great nation of ours.
1913-? Depew, NY – St. Augustine. Jozef & Walerya had their third child, Casimiera (aka Catherine) in 1914.
?(post 1914, but before 1916)-1920 Toledo, OH – St. Anthony. In 1916 Their fourth child, Stefan (Stephen Edward) was born. Followed by Joseph in 1919 and Boleslawa/Bernice in 1920. Stefan and Joseph were christened at St Anthony, but Bernice was not christened in the diocese of Toledo. So I think that almost immediately after Bernice was born they moved to Detroit and I suspect Bernice was baptized in Detroit.
Detroit, MI – So many parishes. In Detroit, December 1922 Henry was born. Henry was born and died a month later in January 1923. In 1924, Theodore was born in Detroit. Finally, In 1926 their last child, Chester, was born at home. His baptism was at Corpus Christi Church (2291 E. Outer Driver, Detroit) in 1928. My grandfather Josef built the steeple on Corpus Christi Church. Chester's God Mother Janina Leszczynska is a mystery. Was Janina a sister or a sister-in-law of my grandmother (Walerya z. Leszczynska) ? We have no record of Janina Leszczynska — perhaps the 1940 US Census will shed some light. Chester attended Immaculate Conception Church in Hamtramck as a boy. His 1st Holy Communion was at St Johns Church on East Grand Blvd, Detroit.
So that is nine children born and seven who survived infancy. My grandparents had children in two different countries, and in three states in the US. Two churches in Poland and at least a half dozen churches in the US document my father and his siblings births/baptisms.

Freizeit-Land Geiselwind is a fantastic amusement park offering fun and entertainment for families with children aged 4+. It is conveniently located on the A3 between Würzburg and Nuremberg and occupies a site of more than 400,000m².
At Freizeit-Land Geiselwind you'll discover more than a hundred attractions offering all-round family fun. The park has something for everyone: thrills and excitement on everything from rollercoasters to children's carousels, magic and suspense at the various shows, active learning on educational trails and at exhibitions, and all the wonders of nature at the zoo. The 90-metre Top of the World tower, the largest transportable observation tower in the world, is visible for miles around. You can also enjoy panoramic views on the T-Rex Tower ride – but be warned: it's not for the faint-hearted. The ride may take you up slowly, but you'll plummet from the top in free fall before going up and down again. Or why not brave the Boomerang, Germany's only loop-the-loop rollercoaster that goes forwards and backwards? The coaster hurtles along the track at speeds of around 75 km/h, before heading into 18 metres of loop-the-loops and emerging upside down. Whether on the log flume, the spinning coaster, the wings of Icarus or the flight simulator, adrenaline junkies will not be disappointed. The 4D motion cinema whisks you away on an adventure where you must defeat enemy robots. The illusion is created by movable platforms, 3D glasses and special effects.
Freizeit-Land Geiselwind also caters for younger daredevils: the Jumpin' Star, for example, goes up and down like Icarus and the T-Rex Tower but at a gentler, more child-friendly pace, and not quite so high! Other attractions for smaller children include carousels, power paddlers, a swan boat ride, the Dragon Express, Dinoland, T-Rex World, giant slides and, of course, play areas. Parents and children will encounter all manner of artisans practising their crafts around the park, including glassblowers, wood burners and portrait painters. Face painters can also transform your little ones into butterflies, lions or fairies. There's lots on offer at the back of the park too, where the extensive bird safari land and zoo are surrounded on all sides by forest and offer welcome shade in summer.

BECKLEY, W.Va. (AP) -- A former president of a Massey Energy subsidiary implicated the company's chief executive officer for the first time in safety violations as he pleaded guilty Thursday to charges resulting from an investigation into the 2010 explosion at a Massey mine that killed 29 men.
David Hughart, 54, entered the plea to two federal conspiracy charges in U.S. District Court. He was accused of working with others to ensure miners at White Buck Coal Co. and other Massey-owned operations got advance warning about surprise federal inspections between 2000 and March 2010.
The judge asked Hughart if there was a policy to give advanced warnings and, if so, what company officials ordered the policy.
"What officers are you talking about?" Judge Irene Berger asked.
"The chief executive officer," he replied.
The CEO at the time, Don Blankenship, was not mentioned by name. Assistant U.S. Attorney Steve Ruby declined comment about Blankenship after the hearing because the investigation remains ongoing.
Blankenship did not immediately respond to messages Thursday. Nor did an attorney who represents him in a civil lawsuit related to the Upper Big Branch disaster.
While Hughart did not name the CEO in court, his wife of 36 years, Karen, told reporters outside the courthouse it was Blankenship.
"I answered the phone (from Blankenship) on several occasions," Karen Hughart said. "Don called the office and at home."
Blankenship retired about eight months after the explosion at the Upper Big Branch mine and is the man who many families of those killed have said they'd like to see prosecuted. Massey has since been bought out by Virginia-based Alpha Natural Resources.
Hughart was cooperating with investigators, a sign that authorities may be gathering evidence to target other Massey officials in their ongoing investigation. Prosecutors have declined to say who else could face charges in the wide-ranging and continuing probe of the worst U.S. coal mine disaster in four decades.
Gary Quarles, whose son Gary Wayne died in the 2010 blast, said Hughart's information gave him hope that Blankenship would eventually be indicted.
"It's just a matter of time," he told The Associated Press by phone. "I really do want this, and I hope it happens ... I want him to know he can be had. His money can't get him out of everything."
Blankenship has been re-emerging as a public figure over the past year, launching a website where he shares his thoughts and reviving a long-dormant Twitter account.
His downfall began April 5, 2010, when Massey's Upper Big Branch mine exploded and killed 29 men in southern West Virginia. On a website updated recently, Blankenship calls it one of the worst days of his life.
Many people in West Virginia's coalfields hold Blankenship personally responsible for the blast, accusing him of putting profits before people throughout his long career as an operator. Multiple investigations found the explosion at Montcoal was caused by blatant disregard of federal safety laws, and Blankenship had a well-documented record of micromanaging his mines.
Blankenship had long been a public figure and household name in West Virginia, lavishing millions on conservative political candidates including state Supreme Court Justice Brent Benjamin, and accusing the former head of the federal Mine Safety and Health Administration of lying to Congress.
But the Upper Big Branch disaster made him known outside the state, and a week before his retirement, a national magazine profile labeled him "the dark lord of coal country." The retirement came abruptly on a Friday night, and for a while, he virtually vanished from public view.
Hughart became the highest ranking of three former mine workers convicted since the investigation began into the explosion at Upper Big Branch mine. He faces up to six years and a $350,000 fine when he's sentenced on June 25. Hughart and his attorney, Michael Whitt, were not immediately available for comment after the hearing.
Four investigations into the Upper Big Branch explosion have concluded that Massey concealed problems at the mine through an elaborate scheme that included sanitized safety-inspection books and an advance-warning system. The mine has since been sealed.
Prosecutors also have negotiated a $210 million agreement with the company that bought Massey, Alpha Natural Resources, to settle past violations at Upper Big Branch and other Massey mines. That protects the company from criminal prosecution but leaves individuals open to it.
Gary May, a former superintendent at the Upper Big Branch mine where the blast occurred, was sentenced last month to 21 months in prison for his guilty plea to charges he defrauded the government through his actions at the mine. That included manipulating the mine ventilation system during inspections to fool safety officials and disabling a methane monitor on a cutting machine a few months before the explosion.
May had testified at the February 2012 sentencing of former Massey security chief Hughie Elbert Stover, who was sent to prison for three years for lying to investigators and ordering a subordinate to destroy documents. It was one of the stiffest punishments ever handed down in a mine safety case. In December, a federal appeals court upheld Stover's conviction.
U.S. Attorney Booth Goodwin has said his office is sifting through a large amount of information on Upper Big Branch, and the investigation that has moved up the management ladder will continue until all avenues are exhausted. After May was sentenced, Goodwin didn't mention Blankenship when asked about him, noting instead that Hughart supervised a group of mines and had a long career at Massey.
Associated Press writer Vicki Smith contributed to this report from Morgantown.

The land between the Rhine, Odenwald forest and Neckar river is characterised by over 500 million years of geological history, diverse natural surroundings and good old-fashioned hospitality.
Can you still remember what soil feels like? Are you curious about what rocks, plants and water can tell us about the planet we live on? Do you ever wonder where the first horses lived?
Then why not take a family-friendly guided tour of Bergstrasse-Odenwald Nature Park, led by one of the rangers, where you'll learn about the region's natural and geological history and its culture. Whether you immerse yourself in the past, relax in the tranquillity of the moment or enjoy a few culinary treats, the park's comprehensive programme of activities offers insights into the life of the region.
The entrance gates and information centres, and over 30 themed trails and educational installations on the environment (such as the visitor centre at the stalactite cave in Buchen), provide plenty of tips and suggestions. The region covered by the park (UNESCO Global Geopark) also contains three UNESCO World Heritage sites: the Messel Pit Fossil Site, Lorsch Abbey and, near Walldürn, the Upper-Germanic Rhaetian Limes.
The charm of the landscape is based on contrast. There is the Bergstrasse region in the west with its history-steeped sites, mild climate and winegrowing tradition. Then there is the Odenwald forest in the east: the Crystalline Odenwald features primarily gently undulating farmland, while the Bunter Sandstone Odenwald is marked by arresting valleys and large areas of woodland. And the plunging valleys of the Main and Neckar rivers are the backdrop to spectacular landscapes and pretty towns such as Heidelberg.

On NCIS, Tony DiNozzo is always getting his head slapped, but does he need to have it shrunk, too? Michael Weatherly has created a couple of surreal YouTube clips in which the raffish agent is confronted by Dr. Phil at the behest of concerned buddy Jimmy Palmer — based, he says, on "the idea that DiNozzo would get grilled psychologically by someone even more alpha-male than [Mark Harmon's] Gibbs."
Weatherly concedes that taking the hit dramedy's characters into strictly comedic territory "did confuse some" at the network when he proposed the webisodes. "There were definitely some raised eyebrows. But I think that DiNozzo, Jimmy Palmer [Brian Dietzen] and Abby Sciuto [Pauley Perrette] are the tricycle of comedy on the show, so that was an appropriate usage of characters." Sean Murray's McGee also has a cameo.
"CBS allowed me to do this, but it's definitely not sanctioned," says the 007-loving Weatherly. "It's the Never Say Never Again of NCIS."
For Dr. Phil, interacting with fictional characters was a first. "I'm an ardent NCIS fan, so I was totally up on DiNozzo's pathology," he says. "From the problems he has with his dad to all his failed relationships to how he relates to his coworkers, he's a shrink's field day. I've had some real-life Tonys on the show, and they make for great television."
After taping the bits, Dr. Phil says he told the actors he fantasized about being a character on the show who gets shot and dies from his wounds. "Sick, I know!" he says. "Then again, maybe Michael could just slap my character in the head to get even."

DOVER — With New Hampshire's Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) confirming another flu-related death, the toll now stands at 14 for this flu season. Thirteen of the 14 deaths were in December, and the other occurred this month.
"It's a relatively high month, although that's not unheard of," DHHS Bureau Chief of Infectious Disease Christine Adamski said. "The number of influenza-related deaths each year varies. In the calendar year, there were nine deaths for 1997 versus a high of 35 in 1998."
Adamski said none of the state's flu victims were juveniles, but Maine Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Director Dr. Sheila Pinette in December reported the death of a young child from the flu. She said there have been a few more deaths since then, but could not cite an exact figure.
Pinette said that in the past week Maine has seen an additional 27 outbreaks — where the flu virus crops up in a small, confined area such as a long-term care facility. There have been a total of 57 documented outbreaks throughout Maine already this flu season compared with 10 during the 2011-2012 season. Pinette said two of the outbreaks occurred at a university and a day care facility but declined to identify either.
With Boston proclaiming a state of emergency for its flu outbreak this week, with 700 confirmed flu cases compared to 70 last year there, Seacoast hospitals in New Hampshire reported an uptick in cases as well. New Hampshire has been reported to be one of 43 states in the country with the disease reaching a "widespread" level, according to the national CDC website.
Wentworth-Douglass Hospital's Vice President of Community Relations Noreen Biehl said the hospital is seeing on average 70 to 100 patients every day coming in complaining of respiratory illness and flu-like symptoms, though not all those cases are confirmed to be from influenza.
"It's certainly a lot more that we had last year but in 2009, with (the national H1N1 influenza outbreak), they're similar numbers and we'll see how it continues," Biehl said. "It's definitely more than the last couple of years."
Biehl said for now the Dover-based hospital is coping with the high demand.
"We're managing to take care of patients appropriately and we're don't have any specific shortages right now but we'll see how this continues," she said, noting 90 percent of her staff is vaccinated against the flu. The other 10 percent is instructed to wear masks at all times to limit the spreading of the illness.
In Rochester, Frisbie Memorial Hospital's Michelle Landry, of marketing and communications, reported the emergency department has seen an "influx" of reported influenza cases in Rochester. Landry said the hospital has been incredibly busy with the increase in cases, far more than last year, and one nurse said in testing dozens of patients recently told her she only found two people who didn't test positive for the flu.
Mariann Murphy, marketing manager of Huggins Hospital in Wolfeboro, said the emergency department there also reported a dramatic hike in influenza cases though she could not point to specific numbers. Last weekend, Murphy reported the hospital was also seeing more cases of the norovirus and pneumonia. York Hospital in Maine also reported a rise in patients testing positive, but deferred all comment to the state department.
Adamski stressed that although it is believed that this time of year is the peak of the flu season, it is never too late to get a flu vaccine.
"We have ample supply (in New Hampshire). It's readily available. It takes a couple of weeks to build protection but it's not too late to get vaccinated," she said. "We don't know that this is the peak. We don't know what circulating strains will go away so the vaccine is really one of the best protections you can have to prevent illness. It may be that you still get it but it may be milder and a shorter course."
Adamski noted the Granite State is considered a "universal state" where free vaccines are available for children under the age 18. The flu vaccine is generally recommended for anyone over the age of 6 months.
Dr. Pinette noted if a patient has already contracted one of the three prominent strains — H1N1, commonly referred to as "swine flu," Influenza A or Influenza B — they can protect themselves from contracting the other two by getting immunized. She said flu season lasts typically through April and the vaccine will also minimize a patient's reaction and symptoms if they end up catching influenza.
"The most common flu and influenzas are covered in the vaccine and that is a primary way to contain this," she said. "It is a personal and social responsibility for us to make sure we get immunized. All of the strains we are identifying in the laboratory are the most common in the vaccine."
Those with the flu are urged to stay home from work or school and to isolate themselves, to practice good "respiratory etiquette," covering their mouths and disposing of used tissues, and to practice thorough hand washing techniques. Adamski said a good rule of thumb is to sing the Happy Birthday song twice through while washing under warm water with soap to ensure a 20- to 30-second clean.
