Tsunao Miyajima (1884–1965): From a Professor of Economics to Employers' Representative
Kubo Shin,	Kwansei Gakuin University
The interwar period witnessed an increasing divergence, or polarisation, in opinion among economists in Japan, to the point where the largest academic society for socioeconomic studies ceased its activity. The implacable rift was between those who maintained that social reform should serve harmony between capital and labour and those who considered it in terms of class struggle. The same period also saw an accelerating convergence, or internationalisation, in the field of economics, through several channels in the West. One important channel was international conferences and organisations, where economists exchanged opinions, considering political and economic realities./ This paper aims to delineate the intellectual trajectory of Tsunao Miyajima (M), a Japanese economist who remains unknown among historians of economics, and thereby shed light on the twofold development of economics mentioned above. M studied in Brussels under Waxweiler, a historicist economist famous for his opinion for profit-sharing. Returning to Tokyo before the outbreak of the Great War, M researched the industrial insurance schemes of many countries in the West and proposed establishing an industrial insurance scheme in Japan for lower-class people, who at that time remained uninsured. His transfer from Tokyo to Osaka after the war allowed him to turn to a grander project: that of founding his own principles of economics. The first part of M's project, on production, was modelled on the thought of Gide, sympathising with his philosophy for solidarity. As a result, M's production theory was generally classical and implied his view of wages as exogenous or sociologically given. Immediately after publishing the first part, he not only joined the Royal Economic Society and the Societé d'économie politique but also became a prolific correspondent with eminent economists in the West such as J. B. Clark. Thus in his project's latter part, mainly on distribution, M decided to follow Clark's marginal productivity theory of factor pricing. This attempt might have brought something discordant with his earlier view of social reform but was cut short due to his untimely resignation from Japanese academe in 1927. The next year, he became chief of the permanent Japanese employers' delegation to the ILO and met with such outstanding economists in Geneva and elsewhere as Cassel. In this position, where M remained until 1934, he broached the argument–at odds with his earlier one–that social reform from above on behalf of labourers could well end up unintentionally harming them./ M's intellectual trajectory can be considered unique in the Japan of his era, where many non-Marxist economists sought the harmony of labour and capital in the increasingly controlled war economy. On the other, it showed that the orthodox reasoning suggesting that wages would naturally equal the real value of the work done was instrument to defending business interests in Japan on the international scene.

Q: ng-bind equivalent in Angular I've used ng-bind in angularjs like this

But In Angular2 , I have a function getVal() in the component and I need to call it from the template, in the same way like angular1.

A: Of course {{ getVal() }} will work as JB Nizet suggests when you want the returned value of your function to appear somewhere inline in the body of some HTML string.  However, what you're actually after is...

I love the season changes. My favorite time of year is fall with the crisp air and falling leaves. And there's nothing like that first snowfall of the season.
But for some folks, cold weather isn't so welcome. Because when it arrives, they know a certain unwelcome guest isn't far behind.
And that's the headaches. Which just like clockwork show up every year as the temperatures drop.
Well, if your head is pounding it probably won't make you feel a whole lot better to know you're not alone. But you're not.
In fact, for lots of folks falling temperatures in autumn and winter trigger frequent headaches. And surprisingly, the culprit is often muscle tension.
When you're exposed to cold air, your normal reaction is to tense up. The muscles in your neck, shoulders, and even your scalp react to the cold. And that can translate into a throbbing headache.
But there's good news. This year you could FINALLY rid yourself of your cold weather headaches for good. And you won't even have to pop risky pain pills to do it either.
This simple three-step plan could have you pain-free in no time. And headache-free clear through spring.
The first trick for heading off cold-air headaches is also the easiest. Since exposure to the cold is what triggers many of them be sure to bundle up before heading out.
That means dressing in layers. Besides a warm coat, you're always going to want to wear a hat, scarf, and gloves.
Bonus: Wearing your scarf across the lower half of your face can help you sidestep another common headache trigger, low humidity, by causing the air you breathe in to be moister.
Many of us run low on vitamin D, especially in the fall and winter months. And it turns out that could be playing a role in your cold-weather headaches.
Studies have found a link between vitamin D deficiency and headache pain.
Scientists aren't exactly sure yet why the low vitamin levels trigger head pain. But some researchers believe it may have to do with D's ability to help our bodies absorb key muscle-relaxing minerals such as magnesium.
In other words, you may be able to slash your headache risk by raising your D level. It can be tough to get enough D from the sun during the winter months so consider taking a vitamin D3 supplement too.
When the weather turns cooler, many of us cut back on liquids. But it turns out that decision could be contributing to your headaches.
Dehydration is a common headache trigger. And becoming mildly dehydrated when it's cold outside, and the air is very dry, is a lot easier than most folks might imagine.
According to a study published in the European Journal of Neurology drinking just an extra liter of water a day could significantly slash headache pain. And if you forget to stay hydrated and get a headache drinking some water can help relieve the pain.
Drinking two cups of water could relieve dehydration-triggered headaches within a half an hour, according to research.
Make this the year you FINALLY say goodbye to cold-weather headaches for good with this simple three-step plan.

Extremist 'hawks' are utterly wrong to blame Islam for terrorism
THIS THINKING HAS LED TO MISGUIDED AND INTRUSIVE POLICIES.
The neocon rhetoric about terrorism and extremism in the aftermath of
the Crevice trial might seem straightforward to some. They argue that
there is something new and distinct about these plots – that they have
no political agenda other than destroying western civilisation. That is
why they targeted a shopping centre and a nightclub. We are told that
there is a political ideology of Islam – which talks of Shariah law and
a Caliphate – which is inherently violent. It seems impossible for them
to believe that one can support these political ideas and not endorse
violence against civilians.
Both past experience and recent evidence prove these views to be either ignorance or lies. The IRA bombed shopping centres and pubs. No one questioned whether the IRA found the freedom to shop abhorrent. No one suggested intervention in Catholic churches or Sunday school classes in order to stem the tide of Republican violence, because no link was found to churches or Sunday school. It was well understood that their violence, unjustifiable as it was, was about injustices in Northern Ireland as well as unification of the island of Ireland.
Yet this government has announced conclusive plans for the state regulation of mosques and after-school Qur'an classes, allowing it to intervene in personal religious practice in an unprecedented manner, though there is no proof of their systemic link with terrorism. It has labelled the institutions of the Muslim community as part of the problem, even though prominent personalities, Imams and groups within the Muslim community have said repeatedly and unequivocally that the killing of civilians on 7/7, in Madrid or 9/11 is unacceptable. This government interference into personal religious institutions will only serve to reinforce stereotypes and heighten suspicion, fear and alienation.
The recent evidence that proves the hawkish theories to be false came in the form of a major public opinion poll across four major Muslim countries conducted by www.worldpublicopinion.org . Its results show that in the four Muslim countries polled there is an overwhelming popular support [>70%] for Shariah and a caliphate, whilst at the same time a rejection of violence against civilians [no matter their location].
Some politicians and commentators use extremist rhetoric – first started by neocons but now even adopted by some opportunist Muslims – to justify their political agenda in the Middle East. The global war on terror has been justified by linking the caliphate with violence directed against civilians. Most Muslims see the caliphate as a pillar of the political ideology that will liberate the Muslim world from oppressive rulers and external exploitation. The demonisation of the political ideology that seeks to liberate the masses from colonial hegemony is now spearheaded by western governments who are keen to keep the existing totalitarian dictators in power, and threaten to pursue a never ended 'war on terror' to prevent what is the hope and prayer of the Muslim masses.
The government's latest policies of interfering in Muslim community institutions are clearly not designed to address community relations. They are not even aimed at making Britain more secure. They are about engineering a placid compliant Muslim community. Those who support these policies only use issues such as the Crevice trial to justify their extreme call.

Designed and produced in the USA, the Passport Wallet will inspire you to travel abroad more often. Crafted from rich brushed nubuck leather, it features four card slots on one side and an additional pocket on the other.
I purchased the brown passport wallet for my boyfriend (who loves traveling), and he adores it! It's nice, sleek, and looks classy when he's presenting it to TSA. It also keeps his passport safe from wear and tear. The leather is top notch and shows no damage whatsoever even after over a year of constant use. Great product!


Remarks before the European Banking Congress, Frankfurt am Main, Germany, November 17, 2006 ; "While the ECB has delivered a currency that retains its purchasing power at least as well as the dollar, there are at least three reasons why the euro is unlikely to displace the dollar as the dominant international currency in the near term. First, the growth prospects of the euro area. Second, the uniqueness of EMU. Third, the benefits of incumbency."

The CFA Level 1 exam is an exam required of all college graduates who want to work as a chartered financial analyst. This exam is available from the Chartered Financial Analyst Institute and is available twice a year. You can register to take the test in June or December. It's important that you understand how to register, the requirements you must meet, the format of the test and how to prepare for it.
According to the CFA Institute, you can only register to take the test if you have a bachelor's degree in finance or are within one year from finishing your degree. You can also take the test if you have a bachelor's degree in a similar subject matter.
Test takers must also have a minimum of four years of professional work experience. You can sit for the exam with a combination of education and experience rather than having just four straight years of work experience. The Institute also requires that you show an international passport prior to taking the exam.
When you register to take the CFA Level 1 exam, you must use the official website of the CFA Institute to select the testing center closest to you and the date you will take the exam. You will also need to pay an enrollment fee and a registration fee. The enrollment fee is a one-time fee, but you'll pay the registration fee every time you take the test. The institute charges additional fees for those who register early and those who register after the deadline.
The CFA Level 1 exam is an extensive exam that lasts for several hours. It features two sessions that last for up to three hours. Though you can finish early, you cannot spend more than three hours on either section. Each section consists of 120 questions with three possible answers. Some questions will feature a simple sentence with one or missing words somewhere within the sentence. You select the answer that best fills in that blank spot. Other questions give you a fully worded sentence and ask you to select the response that best answers the question.
Questions found on this exam fall into one of 10 different categories. Professional and ethical standards questions cover laws and ethics that you must follow in the field, while quantitative methods focus more on research and statistics. The exam will also test your knowledge of alternative and equity investments, derivatives, fixed income issues and corporate finance. You'll also find questions relating to economics, portfolio management, financial reporting and financial analysis.
Once you pay your enrollment fee, you have access to resources designed to help you prepare for the CFA Level 1 exam. Those resources include examples of questions actually found on previous editions of the test and sample exams too. Those sample exams feature 240 questions divided into two sections that help you simulate taking the real test. You should also practice using your calculator as you take those sample questions to ensure that you know how to answer each one. Some colleges that offer finance degrees offer study groups for students taking the exam and classes that give you credit for preparing for the test.
You cannot work as a chartered financial analyst (CFA) without first taking the Level 1 exam. The exam is also available in a Level 2 and Level 3 format for those with more experience. Looking at how to register for the CFA Level 1 exam and the format of the exam can help you feel confident taking the test.

Q: Coordinate system change and Jacobi matrix Assume we want to change variables from the cartesian coordinates by the following transformation:
$ x=u,\thinspace\thinspace\thinspace y=v $
Then Jacobi matrix of this transformation would be
$ \begin{pmatrix}\frac{\partial x}{\partial u} & \frac{\partial x}{\partial v}\\
\frac{\partial y}{\partial x} & \frac{\partial y}{\partial v}
\end{pmatrix} $
I cannot understand what is actually the transformation. As far as Im familier with, Jacobi matrix represent the differential of a function, that is, given a differentiable function, say, $ f: \mathbb{R}^2 \to \mathbb{R}^2 $
Jacobi matrix of $ f $ in some point $ x $ where $ f $ is differentiable at, would be   $ \begin{pmatrix}\frac{\partial f^{1}}{\partial x} & \frac{\partial f^{1}}{\partial x}\\
\frac{\partial f^{2}}{\partial y} & \frac{\partial^{2}}{\partial y}
\end{pmatrix} $
So what exactly plays the role of $ f $ in the changing of the coordinate systen $ x=u $ and $y=v $ ?
I hope my question is clear.
Thanks in advance

A: It's easy to get confused with notation when dealing with co-ordinate transformations. A co-ordinate transformation of $\mathbb R^2$ is by definition a differentiable map $f:\mathbb R^2 \to \mathbb R^2$. This can be written, using $(x,y)$ to denote a point in $\mathbb R^2$, as $(x,y) \to (f_1(x,y),f_2(x,y))$, or alternatively we can denote the transformed co-ordinates as $(u,v)$ in which case $(x,y) \to (u(x,y),v(x,y))$.
Thinking about $f$ as the polar co-ordinate transformation, the transformation from cartesian $(x,y)$ to polar $(r,\theta)$ co-ordinates is given by $f(x,y) = (r,\theta)$ where $r$ and $\theta$ are functions of $x$ and $y$ defined as
$$ r(x,y) = \sqrt{x^2 + y^2}$$
$$\theta(x,y) = arctan(y/x)$$
whereas the inverse transformation from polar to cartesian is given by $f^{-1}(r,\theta) = (x,y)$ where
$$x(r,\theta) = r \cos \theta$$
$$y(r,\theta) = r \sin \theta$$

Liberation of Paris 1944 Book Review
Liberation of Paris 1944: Patton's race for the Seine
By Steven J. Zaloga, illustrated by Howard Gerrard
Osprey Campaign Book 194
Paperback, 96 pages, heavily illustrated
Published by Osprey Publishing April 2008
A campaign to liberate Paris was a battle neither side wanted to fight. From the American viewpoint, Paris offered little of strategic value. With the bulk of Germany's combat strength in France bottled up in the Falaise Pocket, Patton's 3rd Army was facing little in the way of organized resistance; the only thing slowing him down was finding enough fuel to continue his onslaught. Attacking Paris would bog American divisions down in urban warfare, and divert much needed logistical capacity away from the spearheads driving deeper into France.
From the German perspective, there was little front-line combat strength with which to mount a meaningful defense. The German General, Dietrich von Choltitz, was able to form ad hoc units from staff and support personnel based in Paris, but these were not seasoned combat troops. Armor was scarce, consisting of obsolete French tanks taken over by the Wehrmacht for garrison and policing duties along with a few Panthers, replacements meant for other units which were requisitioned for the defense. Under orders from Hitler to burn Paris to the ground rather than let the Allies take the city, Choltitz had little means and no desire to raze one of Europe's great cities.
The French had other plans. De Gaulle wanted very much to be seen as the liberator of Paris. This would instantly give him political legitimacy as the leader of the French people after the war. Leclerc's French 2e Division Blindée, patterned after and equipped as an American armored division, provided him the means to realize his ambition. For their part, the French Resistance (FFI) was divided along political lines. The Communist faction wanted to start an uprising at the earliest opportunity, while the other factions were more pragmatic, observing the results of the premature Warsaw Uprising to the East. In any case, the FFI was short of weapons. This only worsened after the Germans confiscated the revolvers of the Paris police force.
In the end, an uprising by the FFI forced everyone's hand. They seized several buildings and erected barricades, and as expected were met with some resistance from Choltitz' garrison forces. Fearing the situation might get out of control Eisenhower changed his plans and dispatched de Gaulle with Leclerc's 2e Division and the American 4th Infantry Division.
In many ways this was a political battle for what France would become after the war instead of a battle fought to help win the war. The Allies wanted to avoid fighting in Paris and even the German defenders did not want to see the city destroyed. The various French factions were looking to gain political standing to advance their own goals in a post-war France. As Clausewitz said, "War is not an independent phenomenon, but the continuation of politics by different means."
The book follows the standard format for Osprey's Campaign series, and is heavily illustrated with maps, photographs, and artwork illustrating important incidents. A good volume which I can recommend to anyone interested in the Liberation of France.

Otto C. Hardtke
Submitted by: Roy W Kessmann (Great Nephew)
Otto C Hardtke born around 1 Oct 1892. Otto Hardtke served in World War 1 with the United States Army. The enlistment was in 1917 and the service was completed in 1918.
Story of Service
Story of Otto C Hardtke, 1 OCT 1892—2 NOV 1918, Military ID 2833359
When I was five or six years old, I was sitting next to my Grandmother Sielaff in Oak Park while she was reading her German Bible. A news clipping fell out and landed on the floor. I picked it up and saw that it had a photo of a soldier in a uniform. I asked her who it was and with tears in her eyes she said that it was her Brother and he was killed in the war.
I asked her for some details and she said she had none. I asked my Mother if she knew anything about it but she said all she knew was what she overheard from her Uncle and Otto's Father. So I went through my entire life wondering what could have happened. Finally, six years ago I decided to begin researching the details. My findings so far are documented here.
Otto C Hardtke was born in Chicago, IL on 1 Oct 1892 to German immigrant parents Wilhem and Wilhelmina Jennerich Hardtke. Wilhem and Wilhelmina arrived in the United States separately from Prussia in the early 1880's. Wilhem arrived in 1882 and Wilhelmina in 1884. They met in Chicago, and were married on 1 January 1888. They lived in Ward 15 then 14 in Chicago.
Early on, Otto worked in the printing industry as a feeder for the presses. Otto had two older sisters - Lizzie and Minnie. The eldest, Lizzie, was my Grandmother. Because of his age, Otto fell into the first of three waves of draftees and he registered for the draft on 5 June 1917. At the time of his draft registration he was working for The National Insurance Co. in Chicago, Ill. Then his Mother, Wilhelmena Hardtke, passed away on 27 Dec. 1917 and was buried in Concordia Cemetery in Forest Park.
After Otto was drafted in early 1918, he trained at Camp Grant in Rockford, IL and was a member of the 343Rd Infantry Regiment of the 86Th Division. He married Lyda Marie Doran, an Irish immigrant, on 18 July 1918 and lived with his new wife at 4921 N Kimbal in the Ravenswood District of Chicago. He shipped out to France on 11 Sept 1918 and, upon arrival there, the 86Th suprisingly was disbanded. He became a member of the 353Rd Infantry Regiment of the 89th Division out of Camp Funston, Kansas.
Initially the Americans were assigned to the trenches shoulder to shoulder with the French under the command of French General Foch. American General Pershing saw the futility of this position. The stalemate of trench warfare just continued. So Pershing developed a strategy to take control of his own forces and setup a time table for accomplishing step by step objectives to capture the towns of Stednay and Stenay some 35 miles distant from the current position of the troops. Both the French and British commanders scoffed at the plan and called it undoable. Never-the-less Pershing went ahead with it anyway.
The implementation of the plan began on 25 September 1918. It was called the Meuse-Argonne offensive and had the objective of cutting the railines at Sedan, Stednay and Stenay which the enemy was using to transport personnel and materials to the front. Otto fought in the Battle of St. Mihel as well as this Meuse - Argonne Offensive. These battles were the first in the War that were carried out solely by American soldiers under the command of an American General. Moreover, the stalemate of trench warfare was broken by the Americans "going over the top" with sufficient strength and courage to route the enemy out of their protected positions.
Otto was wounded on 22 Oct 1918 at Remonville in the Argonne region of France. He became a casualty of war on 2 Nov 1918, probably dying from his wounds. He was buried in a mass grave at Remonville. Meanwhile, the French captured Sedan with the help of two American divisions. The assignment was given to the French to avenge a loss to the Germans there in 1870. The.89Th division was on the out skirts of Stenay ready to take the objective city in a day or two.. These advances caused Germany to surrender and sign the famed Armistice in the 11Th hour, on the 11Th day, of the 11Th month on 11 Nov. 1918. It was meant to be the War to end all Wars.
Otto died nine days short of the Armistice and nine miles short of the target city of Stenay. The first official announcement of Private Hardtke's death came in a cablegram from the AEF to the WAR Department dated 9 March 1919. However a preliminary announcement was published in The Chicago Tribune on 10 December 1918. A formal announcement was published in the Chicago Sunday Tribune dated 30 March 1919. My Great Uncle gave up his life for his country for which we are very proud and thankful.
Otto's remains were shipped to Hoboken, NJ on 20 September 1921 aboard the refrigerated ship Wheaton sailing from Antwerp, Belgium. The Wheaton arrived at Hoboken on 3 Oct 1921. Otto's remains arrived in Chicago at 1:00 PM on Thu. 20 Oct. 1921 at LaSalle St. Station. The train was met by the American Legion.
Otto's will had been unsealed in Cook County Probate Court on 26 June 1919. In it, he names his wife as Executrix and gives orders for her to bury him. After all expenses of burial were paid, Otto granted everything he owned and due to him to his wife. She had him buried in Rosehill Cemetery in the Ravenswood District of Chicago which was a short distance from where they had lived.
Private Otto C. Hardtke was awarded the Purple Heart, posthumously, on 15 Oct. 2013 by then-President Barack Obama.

PodScanning: New podcasts from WGBH, KQED and WNYC
By Tyler Falk, Assistant Editor | September 22, 2015

In our PodScanning column, we look at the latest podcasts and podcasting news in public media. Send tips to tyler@current.org.
New podcasts:
WGBH in Boston and The GroundTruth Project, a nonprofit that reports on social justice issues, have announced a new podcast, GroundTruth, that aims to look beyond the headlines of global news stories.
"The world is more interconnected than ever before," Nathan Tobey, the show's producer, said in an email. "What impacts one part of the world impacts all of it, from immigration issues to the stock market and climate change. But few — if any — shows are using the podcast medium to report on international issues with on-the-ground, episodic storytelling."
The biweekly podcast, announced Sept. 11, will run roughly 20 minutes per episode. Season one of the podcast will consist of six episodes expanding on "Foreverstan: Afghanistan and The Road to Ending America's Longest War," a three-part series resulting from a collaboration between WGBH and The GroundTruth Project. Topics explored will include the origin of the war in Afghanistan and its impact on the country's people.
Charles Sennott, founder and executive director of The GroundTruth Project and co-founder of GlobalPost, will host the new show. GroundTruth and WGBH are co-funding the first season.
GroundTruth is the station's fifth podcast, along with Security Mom, Innovation Hub, The Scrum and a weekly podcast featuring the station's favorite stories from its weekday afternoon program Boston Public Radio.
Love in the Digital Age
KQED in San Francisco launched a four-episode podcast this month after holding an internal competition to develop podcast ideas.
With short episodes featuring first-person stories, Love in the Digital Age looks at how digital technology affects human relationships. The first episode tells the story of a married couple separated by immigration policies and geographical boundaries, yet they stay in communication through technology.
The show is hosted by KQED reporter Rachael Myrow and produced by the station's Polly Stryker. According to Myrow, the idea for the show arose when the station put out a call for departments within KQED to come up with podcast ideas.
Of the 19 proposals, involving 55 staffers across about 12 departments, six were chosen as semifinalists. Love in the Digital Age didn't win the competition — that went to another podcast yet to be launched. But some of the semifinalists are living on.
"In the end, the projects were so compelling that a lot of managers said, 'Let me find someplace in the budget to support this podcast,'" Myrow said.
Myrow is excited to have released her first podcast episodes and said the process was also valuable for the organization. "It was incredibly energizing and incredibly exciting," she said, adding that staffers regularly met at local coffee shops and pubs to discuss possible ideas.
"We're podcast fans, so the idea to get a chance to do one yourself is exciting," she said.
Because this is an experiment — "we're dipping our collective toes" into podcasting, Myrow said — the future of the podcast isn't certain. The station will evaluate the response from the first four episodes — which will also air on KQED radio — and go from there.
"I would love to imagine there will be a massive upwelling of public interest," Myrow said. "If that happens, I would be happy to step up and deliver" more episodes, she said.
And a new podcast from WNYC follows Columbia University's football team as it enters the season on a 21-game losing streak.
The first episode of The Season was released Sept. 17. Ilya Marritz, a WNYC business reporter, hosts the 11-episode podcast, which follows the team over its 10-game, 10-week season.
The idea came from WNYC's v.p. of news Jim Schachter, who "heard what was happening with the CU football program and thought, what if we could get access and show our listeners organizational change at work, show them what it's really like for a team with a poor record to try to make a turnaround?" according to a WNYC spokesperson.
Bonus: WNYC is launching a new recap podcast, Empire Afterparty, about the television show Empire.
NPR's new podcast, which rose near the top of the iTunes podcast charts with only two preview clips, released its first episode Tuesday.
Podcast news:
This American Life hosted an "audio hackathon" over the weekend. Here are the ideas that were developed (click on "projects").
WBEZ ditches three podcasts.
"NPR currently gets about $4.7 million in revenue from podcasting, or about 11 percent of its corporate sponsorship revenue."
"Between June 2005 and June 2015, a typical podcast ran for six months and twelve episodes, at two episodes per month, before going inactive."

Q: Android Making a Call Only Works the Second Time So I'm making a Speech to Text app using the voice assistant. I'm trying to make a phone call feature so the user can speak a number and it will call it.
I'm almost there but the number only rings the second time I speak it. The first time it says "Call not sent".
I figured out the reason for this is; when the user speaks the number it's not updating the variable first and then calling the "call" function. I've tried almost everything but it doesn't update the variable correctly.
I.e.
private TextView txtSpeechInput;
public String num = "123";

@Override
    protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
        super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);

            }
           return ;
        }
    }

private void processResult(String command) {
        command = command.toLowerCase();

    if(command.indexOf("time") != -1) {
        Date now = new Date();
        String time = DateUtils.formatDateTime(this, now.getTime(), DateUtils.FORMAT_SHOW_TIME);
        speak("The time is " + time);
    }
    if(command.indexOf("date") != -1) {
        String date = DateFormat.getDateInstance().format(new Date());
        speak("The date is " + date);
    }
    else if (command.indexOf("open") != -1) {
        if(command.indexOf("browser") != -1) {
            Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("https://www.google.co.uk/"));
            startActivity(intent);
        }
    }
    if(command.indexOf("call") != -1) {
        promptSpeechInput();

        try {
            Thread.sleep(18000);

        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        dialPhoneNumber(num);
    }
}

In this code, wen the use says "make a call" it opens another prompt to take the speech input. Stores it in txtSpeechInput (Where it says results.get0) and then at that stage I update the "num" variable and convert it to a string.
It then runs dialPhoneNumber
Now let's say I run it the first time and speak "07123456789", it will say call not sent because its trying to call the default 123, if i speak it again or a different number then it will ring the 07123456789.
How and why does it not update before calling the phone feature?

A: Based on danny117's comment...
promptSpeechInput();

        try {
            Thread.sleep(18000);

        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        dialPhoneNumber(num);

promptSpeechInput starts a new activity, and the result from that activity is the spoken text?  If that's right, then why are you prompting for input, sleeping for 18 seconds (never sleep on the main thread by the way), and then assuming your input is ready?  As danny says, prompting for input should be the last thing that if block does.  Dialing the number should be initiated from onActivityResult.
Also, why is there a default phone number of "123"?  That will never be correct, so is not a sensible default.  And to reiterate, if you are putting the thread to sleep for a fixed amount of time waiting for something else to happen, you're almost certainly approaching it the wrong way.  And if you're putting the main thread to sleep in Android you're absolutely doing it the wrong way.


Bobby- thank you very much!!
Thank you, Roberto, for finding this and commenting on it- sure appreciated!!
I see you also have a photo of the Arc de Triomphe, Will! And it's even more cool as it does not only look old, but it really is! The cars and the clothes of those people are simply impossible to reproduce. Great photo! ~Roberto.
Thank you, Juergen, for singling this out and commenting on it!!
I like this too ... the nostalgic value is priceless!

Q: Printing ASCII table java This is the ASCII table printing part of my code for a overall program. I am prompting the user to enter desired roles and columns but I can't get the user input connected to the actual production of the table. I know that my variables aren't matching correctly, how should I go about changing my variable so that rs, re, cs, ce is used in the implementation of the table? I confused myself quite a bit so I am asking help on here. Thanks!
    else if(input == 3)
    {
        System.out.println("Table B.1 ASCII Character Set, p.741 of textbook");
        System.out.println("What is starting row (0-12): ");
            int rs = keyboard.nextInt();
        System.out.println("What is end row (0-12): ");
            int re = keyboard.nextInt();
        System.out.println("What is start col (0-9): ");
            int cs = keyboard.nextInt();
        System.out.println("What is end col (0-9)");
            int ce = keyboard.nextInt();

        if (rs<0 || rs>12)
        {
            System.out.println( "Must be int between (0-12)");
            rs = keyboard.nextInt();
            if (!keyboard.hasNextInt())
            {
            System.out.println("Must be int between (0-12)");
            keyboard.nextInt();
            }
        }
        if (re<0 || re>12)
        {
            System.out.println( "Must be int between (0-12)");
            re = keyboard.nextInt();
            if (!keyboard.hasNextInt())
            {
            System.out.println("Must be int between (0-12)");
            keyboard.nextInt();
            }
        }
        if (cs<0 || cs>9)
        {
            System.out.println( "Must be int between (0-9)");
            cs = keyboard.nextInt();
            if (!keyboard.hasNextInt())
            {
            System.out.println("Must be int between (0-9)");
            keyboard.nextInt();
            }
        }
        if (ce<0 || ce>9)
        {
            System.out.println( "Must be int between (0-9)");
            ce = keyboard.nextInt();
            if (!keyboard.hasNextInt())
            {
            System.out.println("Must be int between (0-9)");
            keyboard.nextInt();
            }
        }
        keyboard.next();

        char hex;
        char ascii = 0*20;
        int row = 2;
        int column;

        System.out.print("\n\n");
        System.out.print("                            ");
        System.out.println("ASCII Table");
        System.out.print("                            ");
        System.out.print("\n    ");

        for (hex = '0'; hex<= '9'; hex++)
          System.out.print("  " + hex);
        for (hex = 'A'; hex<= 'F'; hex++)
          System.out.print("  " + hex);

        System.out.println("\n");

        while (ascii < 0*80)
        {
          System.out.print("  " + row);
          for (column = 0; column < 16; column++)
          {
            System.out.print("  " + ascii);
            ascii++;
          }
          System.out.print("\n\n");
          row++;
        }
    }

A: This line
keyboard.next();

asks for input without a prompt, and the ASCII table doesn't appear yet until something is entered.  You can safely remove it.
The hexadecimal literals towards the bottom are not specified correctly.  0*20 is zero times twenty, not a hexadecimal literal.  A hexadecimal literal is a zero followed by the letter x, e.g. 0x20.  Change your two hexadecimal literals from 0*20 and 0*80 to 0x20 and 0x80, respectively.
With these changes, I get this output:
Table B.1 ASCII Character Set, p.741 of textbook
What is starting row (0-12):
0
What is end row (0-12):
12
What is start col (0-9):
0
What is end col (0-9)
9

                            ASCII Table

      0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  A  B  C  D  E  F

  3  0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  :  ;  <  =  >  ?

  4  @  A  B  C  D  E  F  G  H  I  J  K  L  M  N  O
