Banana Pudding and Chocolate go hand in hand. These easy Chocolate Banana Pudding Parfaits are made up of layers of homemade banana pudding, homemade chocolate ganache and crushed vanilla cookies.
This recipe was created for Dixie Crystals by BigBear'sWife, post and words written are 100% mine as always!
You know how sometimes you make a recipe and it just turns out more amazing that you thought it was going to? This recipe is one of those!
I mean, come on, I knew that chocolate and banana would go perfectly together but I wasn't prepared for how much I was going to love these Mini Chocolate Banana Pudding Parfaits. Homemade banana pudding, covered in homemade chocolate ganache? Oh heaven, I tell ya, heaven!
As soon as my spoon went though that chocolate ganache and scooped up a big spoonful of that banana pudding I knew this dessert was going to be a winner.
These Mini Chocolate Banana Pudding Parfaits kind of remind me of the no bake eclair desserts that I love to make. I normally make those with pudding, chocolate frosting and graham crackers, so I suppose that they are indeed similar.
Maybe that's why I love these little desserts so much.
Oh and they're in individual servings, perfect for the dessert lover that doesn't want to share! However, you can totally make this in a giant bowl, casserole dish or trifle dish if you wanted to take this to a cook out or a party!
I bet you'd be the talk of the event if you showed up with this Chocolate Banana Pudding Parfait dessert! I know I would be bragging about you!
Also, no….you don't need to top these with whipped cream but I mean, who doesn't want their dessert topped with whipped cream haha. Just do it, you'll love it!
Looks super yum! Thanks for all the great recipes!
Oh girl, it's like you are in my head knowing JUST what I want to eat! YUM!
Those parfaits are calling my name!
I'd like that RIGHT NOW : ) This dessert is right up my alley!
These look amazing! My hubby would love to come home to these, too!
My kids would be all over these parfaits!
If I could reach through my computer screen and grab one (or three) of these, I definitely would! They look utterly delicious!!
Wow, love those layers! These are calling my name!
These will be a hit with my family! So delicious!
That drizzle of chocolate on top sold me! This looks so mouth watering!
Delicious..! this is one of my favorite recipe and your mini chocolate banana pudding looks so yummy and creamy, i can't wait make it. Thanks for sharing and keep shared your innovative recipes….!

Johan Adrian Jacobsen (1853 in Risøya, Tromsø – 1947) was a Norwegian ethnologist and adventurer. He is mainly known as a collector of ethnographical objects, and a recruiter of indigenous peoples for the ethnographical shows organized by Carl Hagenbeck, founder of Tierpark Hagenbeck, a zoo in Hamburg. Starting in mid-1881, Jacobsen was hired by the Berlin Museum für Völkerkunde to gather ethnographic objects and other specimens. His travels took him from the Arctic to South America, North America, Korea, Japan, Siberia, and the South Sea Islands.

Biography
For seven years, beginning in 1867, Jacobsen was member of a whaling crew on the Spitsbergen and Murman coasts. In 1876/7 he traveled along the west coast of South America. When he returned to Hamburg in 1877, he was hired by Carl Hagenbeck to recruit Greenlanders for his live exhibitions of indigenous people. In 1880, once again on behalf of Hagenbeck, Jacobsen recruited a group of eight Labrador Inuit, among which was Abraham Ulrikab. Unfortunately, this show ended in tragedy as, within four months, all Inuit had been killed by smallpox.

In mid-1881, Jacobsen was engaged by the Berlin Museum für Völkerkunde to gather ethnographic and other specimens on the west coast of North America. For the next two years, he traveled through British Columbia, Yukon, and Alaska. The museum later sent him on expeditions to Korea, Japan, Siberia, the South Sea Islands, etc.

In 1885, Jacobsen was back in British Columbia, Canada, where he and his brother Bernard Filip hired a group of nine Nuxalk (Bella Coola). Johan Adrian Jacobsen brought them back to Europe and traveled with them until 1887.

Subsequently, he made ethnographic collections in Germany and Norway.

At the Columbian Exposition of 1893, Jacobsen exhibited an ethnographic collection from 25 non-European peoples. This formed the nucleus around which developed the Field Columbian Museum of Chicago.

Only an agent from Schaller & Thomas Family Insurance can provide the ins and outs of a life insurance policy in Peoria, AZ. You, however, can learn the basics of the nature of life indemnity plans below!
In simple terms, life insurance is a contract between the buyer and seller. The buyer (you) agrees to purchase a policy and pay monthly, semi-monthly, or annual premiums to the seller (the assurance company). The indemnity company, in return for such trust and loyalty, agrees to pay the buyer's relatives in the instance of the policyholder's death.
Life insurance policies do not require a beneficiary to know that he will gain a financial benefit from the policyholder's assurance plan. The buyer must, however, choose beneficiaries and should inform such persons of his decision to include them in his policy. A beneficiary does not need the policy number of the deceased holder to file a claim. The benefactor does, however, need to know the name of the assurance company to begin paperwork proceedings. There is no other way for a loved one to know the company with which you hold a life insurance policy unless you tell them.
What factors influence premium payments?
Premium payments are calculated according to several factors that could influence life expectancy. A person's age, for instance, could cause the quote to rise or fall. Whereas young policy seekers may pay pennies on the dollar for an indemnity plan, those consumers who are older may find themselves paying ten times more for the same policy.
Medical records and lifestyle habits also influence premium payments. Nicotine users and those with chronic illnesses such as diabetes or cancer can generally expect to pay more for life insurance in Peoria, AZ than an individual who has a clean bill of health.
Call Schaller & Thomas Family Insurance for help!
We have been in the business of life insurance for many years and can walk you through the process. Let us help you find the policy that fits your lifestyle and needs today!

1. Locking Your Doors & Windows Can Stop One-Third of Break-Ins Many home burglaries are crimes of opportunity, according to Eric M. Gruss, a Monterey County, California-based police officer. "They'll try the front door, the side door, the back," says Gruss. Other common points of entry include a home's attached garage or its first-floor windows.
•An installed secondary locking mechanism. A track lock can be installed on vinyl or aluminum windows to stop the frame from moving freely up or down. Wooden windows can be secured by pushing a bolt, nail, or dowel through a hole drilled through the bottom panel's stile and then halfway through the upper panel's stile.
•Close windows when you're not home. It only takes a burglar a few minutes to break in a rob a home. Closing the windows, even for a quick trip to the store, may be the delay needed to send a prowler packing.
•Carefully select which windows to open, when you do open them. When sleeping, keep only the hard-to-reach windows—like those on the second floor, away from any flat roofing—open. It's also best to open the windows that are visible from the street. A thief will have a harder time slipping into a window that's easily visible to neighbors.
•Don't open windows too wide. Even better, keep all windows open by a margin of less that four inches. Why? That's the circumference of a child's head, which means there's little chance a burglar can fit his head through an opening of that size.
•Do break down the boxes and place them inside your recycling bin, where they'll be out of sight.
•Don't keep the doors to your home, garage, or shed open, even when you're home. An open door gives thieves a sneak peek at what tools they may be able to use to jimmy a lock or to climb to a second story window. It also showcases your pricey stored goods like a high-end tool chest, a riding lawn mower, or circular saw. If you've converted your garage into a livable space, be extra wary. "Here in California, a lot of people turn their garages into man caves. Keep the garage door open, and everyone can see that you have a nice TV in there," says Gruss.
•Do keep the door closed, and keep would-be thieves from knowing what expensive toys you have stashed away. Do You Keep Your Car Doors Locked When You're Home?
•Don't leave your car doors unlocked, especially if you park on the street, in the driveway, or in an unlocked garage. Any items left in the car are at risk, but there's an even greater danger most people may not consider. "Thieves may steal the garage door opener in the middle of the night and then return to your house during the day," explains Gruss.
•Do keep the car door locked and any remote garage door openers out of sight.
•Don't publicly post photos to your social media sites. Once online, anyone can access your—or your child's—photos, which could showcase your expensive electronics and help thieves map the layout of your home. This goes double for vacation photos, which can tip crooks off to the presence of an empty home.
•Do profiles should be set to private, warns Gruss. Carefully vet friends and contacts, making sure you're connected only with people you actually know and trust in real life. Wait to post vacation photos until after you've returned home.
•Don't make it obvious that you're not home. Would-be thieves are looking for tips to identify a homeowner's schedule, particularly one who is not often home.
•Do throw thieves off the trail by leaving a few lights on or setting a timer to turn them on at dusk. Leave some window shades up and some shades down, so it looks like someone is home, filtering the natural light. If you're on vacation or away for an extended time, think about hiring a house sitter or asking a neighbor to check in on the house one or two times a day. A little regular movement can be just enough of a deterrent to scare off a potential burglar.
•Create a neighborhood watch. Criminals don't want to be approached by nosy neighbors. An area with high foot traffic, where people know each other and watch out for unfamiliar activity, will be a lot less attractive to thieves.
•Watch your neighbor's back. Create a network of neighbors who will watch each other's homes while away. Bring in mail, water the lawn, bring garbage and recycling cans to and from the curb. Park in each other's driveway so it appears as if someone is home. Any act that mimics everyday activity will give thieves an indication that its business as usual at home.
•Share key security information.Share emergency contacts, a spare key, and any security codes with a trusted neighbor or two. Agree to listen for each other's home security sirens, particularly when you know a neighbor won't be home.
Does insurance cover your stolen valuables? Your homeowner's policy covers up to certain limits; however, adding Valuable Items Blanket Coverage to your policy, you can rest assured this added layer of protection will provide a hassle-free and inexpensive way to protect your high-value items.
•Mount a visible camera. Many home security cameras can be set to send an alert to your smartphone if someone enters the frame. "A quick glance can tell you if it's the gardener, the exterminator, or someone else," says Gruss. Even a fake camera can work wonders. "Thieves are more likely to pick a place that looks like it has no security on the house," he explains.
•Invest in a home security system. As with a camera, just the sight of an alarm system sticker can be enough to deter a would-be thief. "People sometimes don't like the sticker, they don't like the way it looks, but posting it really does make a difference," affirms Gruss.
•Don't just bluff that you have a secure home. Don't just buy a home security sticker or decal to post in front of your house. If a burglar forces entry through your back door, and doesn't trigger an alarm, they'll know pretty quickly that the sticker is a sham—and that your home is unguarded.
•Set the siren for a short interval. Even with an alarm, once a burglar is in, time is of the essence. "Sometimes they're out before the siren even goes off, sometimes within a minute or two," says DiJoseph. "That sounds like a short amount of time, but try it. Set a watch and see if you can run through every room of your house in under a minute." (Note: I tried it. He was right. I was able to make it through my home in under a minute.) DiJoseph suggests setting your system's siren delay for just 10-15 seconds.
•Install motion detecting lights. Night time intruders can be deterred by a blinding spotlight, triggered by an intruder's presence.
•Trim your hedges."High shrubs provide cover for a prowler," explains Gruss. Keep them cut back to below your window so a burglar can't hide while trying to pick your lock or break your glass.
•Post a "Beware of Dog" sign, even if you don't have a dog. Some burglars are particularly dissuaded by larger breeds. Better yet, adopt an actual dog. Just be aware of how certain breeds can affect homeowner's insurance premiums.
•Keep a television or radio on , which can deter some burglars by leading them to assume someone is home. What To Do If You See Someone Suspicious It's not always easy to keep your cool in the heat of the moment. It can make sense to establish an emergency plan—just in case you come across a would-be intruder at home.
•If you see a suspicious vehicle in the neighborhood, write down the license plate number or snap a photo. It may turn out an unknown visitor from down the street but it won't hurt to have the info if it turns out to be someone up to no good.
•If a stranger knocks on your door, make sure they know you're in the home. Be loud, even if you choose to not answer the door. More than anything, you want to make your presence known. Thieves most often prefer an empty home.
•If you choose to answer the door, do so while on the phone with a friend (or pretend you're on the phone). This will key a burglar in to the fact that someone else will know if a break-in occurs.
•If you're positive a break-in is in progress, call 911 and shout statements like, "I just called 911!" You want let the burglar know you're aware of their presence and that help is on the way.
•If you come home to a burglarized home, call the police immediately. Don't touch anything the criminal may have touched. Wait outside for the police to arrive. It's possible a burglar may still be inside the home.
Where Would Residents Need Umbrella Insurance?
Most people know that there are standard types of insurance such as home and auto that are designed to help you recover from a loss. There are some situations, however, that require coverage above and beyond standard coverage. If you live in certain areas, you may need to consider purchasing umbrella insurance coverage.
If you have a home that has a substantial value that is also used as a rental or a timeshare, for example, you may need umbrella insurance. This is especially true if you live in coastal areas where there are frequent damaging storms, or in areas where there are unexpected occurrences such as tornados or volcanos. It will give you extra protection in the event of a claim against you, or as a result of damages from a natural event in addition to damages to a renter's person or belongings. You may also want to purchase this insurance if you have valuables such as expensive art and jewelry with appraisals to back up your need for coverage. Consult your agent to find out how much Umbrella coverage you need to be secure.
People who require umbrella coverage need to know that they can rely on their policy to protect them in the event of a loss.

For most people, the biggest purchase that they will ever make is when they buy their first home.

Because of this, those that are in the Peoria, AZ area need to make sure that they properly protect their investment with a quality home insurance policy. A home insurance policy can provide you with many different types of protection.
One of the most important parts of any home insurance policy is that it will provide you with protection for your home.

When you have a full home insurance policy in place, you will receive this type of coverage. This will provide you with the financial protection that you need to feel comfortable and live with peace of mind. This coverage will also extend to your personal belongings. More expensive items could require a separate policy rider.
When you have a home insurance policy in place, you also will receive some liability protection. If you own a property, you are taking on risk if you have a guest of any kind come to your home. If someone happens to be injured at your property, you could be found liable. The liability protection part of your home insurance policy will provide you with support if you are sued for liability.

Q: Best approach of Service Worker with query string version identifier on a heavy cached site Story
I got a website using traditional browser cache, the site is heavy cached, up to 365 days for static content.
And to purge the cache after new version deployed, I am using a query string of version identifier like:
<script src="js/main.js?version=1.3.0"></script>

But for every upgrade of version, the load time is bad because browser need to download all the new contents when query string changed.

Situation
Now, we got Service Worker, and I've integrated it into my website. All is OK so far, the query string of version identifier still got using.
// simply cache all the static contents
global.toolbox.router.get('/', global.toolbox.networkFirst);
global.toolbox.router.get(/(.js|.css|.png|.jpg|.json|.html)/, global.toolbox.fastest);

And the same behavior still presenting just like before SW integrated. And yet the upgrade is slow like it always do...

Question
And I am wondering if there are any better approach? which can do something like below and still keep the heavy cache mechanism (for old browsers):

*

*New version found

*Still use the old content of latest version,

*Under going fetch all the new content of new version,

*Next time user visit the site, they will use the latest version.

NOTE The goal it to load the site faster when a new version deployed

A: That's exactly how service workers' life cycle work. Let's see it in slow motion:
First, you need to byte-level alter the service worker to force it to be updated: you could include the version of the application and store it in a variable var version = "1.0.0".
Now the browser will find there is a new service worker and it will trigger its install event. In that handler, open your new cache (name it after your site version. For instance: "cache-v" + version) and fetch all the new resources.
The new service worker won't get activated until the last tab controlled by the former service worker is closed. Once you close all the tabs and reopen the application, the new service worker will receive the activate event. In this handler you can delete the obsolete cache.
And now your service worker is ready for fetching from the new cache.
Key points here are:

*

*To use a cache with a name derived from the version of the app.

*To not use self.skipWaiting() during installation. This way you ensures the already installed service worker continue serving the current content.

*To update the version in the service worker to summon the update machinery.

Hiroshima to host 2023 G7 Summit
May 23, 2022 June 5, 2022 GetHiroshima 1312 Views 0 Comment G7 Summit
Prime Minister Fumio Kishida announced today that Hiroshima will host the 2023 G7 Summit. This will be the first time the summit has been held in an A-bombed city since it began in 1975.
In light of Russia's invasion of Ukraine and hints at the possible use of nuclear weapons, the Prime Minister, who represents a Hiroshima district, decided that Hiroshima was the best place to discuss international peace and nuclear disarmament.
The Hiroshima Prefectural Government, the City of Hiroshima, the Hiroshima Chamber of Commerce and Industry, and other organizations have lobbied hard to bring the summit to the city. The city has proposed to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs that the participating leaders offer flowers to the Cenotaph for the A-bomb Victims in Peace Memorial Park and visit Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum. It is thought that the summit could be a historic occasion on which the leaders of three nuclear weapon states (the United States, the United Kingdom, and France) are forced to come face to face with the reality of the atomic bombings.
A post shared by Richard Forrest (@r.a.forrest)
At a joint press conference following the Japan-U.S. summit at the State Guest House in Tokyo, the prime minister said, "There is no better place to demonstrate our commitment to peace than Hiroshima. I would like to demonstrate to the world our pledge that humanity will never again suffer the horrors of nuclear weapons, and to affirm that we will unite in defense of peace, world order, and values."
NHK reports that the Prime Minister informed U.S. President Biden of the plan at the Japan-US summit meeting and that the idea has Biden's support.
Hiroshima Mayor Matsui is quoted as saying, "We welcome the idea of holding the summit in the A-bombed city of Hiroshima as I believe it will provide a good opportunity for everyone to review the current world situation."
Hiroshima Governor Yuzaki said, "We hope that people will come into contact with the reality of the A-bombing and understand the importance of nuclear abolition.
In an interview with NHK, Hiroshima Governor Yuzaki said, "I am sincerely pleased that the G7 Summit will be held in Hiroshima, and I would like to extend a warm welcome to the heads of state and all those involved in the G7 Summit."
He went on to say, "I believe that having the world's political leaders discuss peace and prosperity in the international community in Hiroshima, which has made a remarkable recovery from the destruction caused by the atomic bomb, will symbolize hope for the restoration of international cooperation based on dialogue and rules, which has been damaged by the invasion of Ukraine, and for the Ukrainian people as they move forward toward recovery."
"I hope that through coming to Hiroshima, the leaders of the world will be able to understand the reality of the atomic bombings, fully recognize the inhumanity of nuclear weapons, and understand once again that the only and certain way to escape the fear of their use is to abolish them", he added.
Tomoyuki Minomaki, President of the Hiroshima Prefectural Confederation of A-bomb Sufferers Organizations, also expressed happiness at the news. He added, however, that "This should not end with a ceremony. I want people to visit Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum, see the photos of the loss of precious children's lives and burnt clothing, and experience the reality of the atomic bombing. I would also like them to make it a common statement that nuclear weapons should not be used until the very end. I hope that the summit will not be a disappointment to us."
Kunihiko Sakuma, President of the Hiroshima Prefectural Confederation of A-bomb Sufferers Organizations, said, "I think the most important thing is for people to come to Hiroshima, talk with A-bomb survivors, hear about their experiences and visit the Peace Memorial Museum. If they do so, I believe we will be able to move in the direction of eliminating nuclear weapons. I hope that during the summit, the participants will discuss how to move forward with nuclear disarmament in concrete terms."
The City of Hiroshima and Hiroshima Prefecture have submitted a plan to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to hold the summit at the Grand Prince Hotel Hiroshima in Hiroshima City's Minami Ward, near Hiroshima Port.

My coverage of Amy and Aaron's wedding at Bradbourne house started with the bridal preparation at Amy's parent's house in Sevenoaks. In contrast to when a bride gets ready at a hotel, homes usually have less space to work with and end up being more chaotic, but they also have that personal touch, where literally every item on every surface has a story to tell and a meaning to the bride. You also often have neighbours standing in the street to see the bride off, many of which have probably known her since she was just a baby.
Bradbourne House is one of my favourite wedding venues in the area. There are some amazing grounds to work with for portraits and the rooms inside the house have large windows (letting in plenty of natural light) and lots of character. It also offers couples the choice of an inside ceremony or an outside ceremony in the orchard. For Amy and Aaron, their first choice was definitely the outside area. As a bit of a first for me, another local photographer, David Burke, had asked to 2nd shoot for me at a wedding, and Amy and Aaron's wedding date worked well so whilst I was covering the bridal preparation, David was at the venue capturing photos of guests arriving, and the ceremony area.
Once Amy arrived, I had a few minutes to capture some portraits of her, but the registrars needed their talk, and I could join the groom for a few portraits of him to match. Both bride and groom looked stunning and relaxed before the ceremony, with little hint of nerves, unless they were hidden by their excitement.
I do love an outside ceremony. The space all around lends itself to beautiful photos but it's also very calming being surrounded by nature. My wife and I got married in a field, and I'll never forget the feeling of a gentle breeze on my face, sunlight warming my neck, and the sounds of birds all around. I hope that one day there will be less restrictions on where ceremonies can occur in the UK, and thus opening up even more opportunities for outside ceremonies.
After the ceremony, Amy and Aaron led their guests back to the main house and out onto the lawn to enjoy drinks and canapes before we started with the group photos. And then, I whisked them away to a few of my favourite locations for their portraits. Having been a wedding photographer at Bradbourne House many times in the past, I've come to know lots of areas that I love for different looks of portraits, although I'm always seeing new places as well every time I'm there.
The wedding breakfast room looked absolutely stunning, and I love their choices for wedding favours for the men and women (port for the men, and a Welsh love spoon for the women). Having not had the opportunity before the meal, I took the groom and his groomsmen out for a few quick pictures before the speeches, and whether it was down to the time of day, alcohol consumed, or stage of the wedding day, but all looked very relaxed and in great spirits.
The speeches were all very well done with great energy, emotion and humour. I loved the best-man's "This is your life" theme to his speech, but also his honestly at revealing the big red book he was holding was just the biggest red book he could find, and not actually the history of the groom. His speech was a great mix of stories, commentary, and heartfelt feelings and had the whole room gripped.
During the meal, it had been raining pretty heavily at times so I really didn't expect us to see any form of a sunset in the evening, but just when I was setting up a shot with Bradbourne House in the background, the clouds broke, and beautiful golden sunlight shone down on us.
Then it was time to go back inside for the cake cutting and first dance, before I took the bride and groom outside for one last photo as a sort of end shot to their day. It always takes an element of trust setting up these shots because the bride and groom can't see much, and it's only the flash that I control that brings the image to life. It was therefore lovely to hear, after I showed the image to Amy and Aaron, how amazing they thought it was. I really enjoyed photographing their wedding at Bradbourne House and can't wait to produce their album for them.

Q: Best way to convert an ArrayList to a string I have an ArrayList that I want to output completely as a String. Essentially I want to output it in order using the toString of each element separated by tabs. Is there any fast way to do this? You could loop through it (or remove each element) and concatenate it to a String but I think this will be very slow.

A: Changing List to a readable and meaningful String is really a common question that every one may encounter.
Case 1.  If you have  apache's StringUtils in your class path (as from rogerdpack and Ravi Wallau):
import org.apache.commons.lang3.StringUtils;
String str = StringUtils.join(myList);

Case 2 . If you only want to use ways from JDK(7):
import java.util.Arrays;
String str = Arrays.toString(myList.toArray());

Just never build wheels by yourself, dont use loop for this one-line task.

A: If you were looking for a quick one-liner, as of Java 5 you can do this:
myList.toString().replaceAll("\\[|\\]", "").replaceAll(", ","\t")

Additionally, if your purpose is just to print out the contents and are less concerned about the "\t", you can simply do this:
myList.toString()

which returns a string like

[str1, str2, str3]

If you have an Array (not ArrayList) then you can accomplish the same like this:
 Arrays.toString(myList).replaceAll("\\[|\\]", "").replaceAll(", ","\t")

A: It's an O(n) algorithm either way (unless you did some multi-threaded solution where you broke the list into multiple sublists, but I don't think that is what you are asking for).
Just use a StringBuilder as below:
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();

for (Object obj : list) {
  sb.append(obj.toString());
  sb.append("\t");
}

String finalString = sb.toString();

The StringBuilder will be a lot faster than string concatenation because you won't be re-instantiating a String object on each concatenation.

A: In case you happen to be on Android and you are not using Jack yet (e.g. because it's still lacking support for Instant Run), and if you want more control over formatting of the resulting string (e.g. you would like to use the newline character as the divider of elements), and happen to use/want to use the StreamSupport library (for using streams on Java 7 or earlier versions of the compiler), you could use something like this (I put this method in my ListUtils class):
public static <T> String asString(List<T> list) {
    return StreamSupport.stream(list)
            .map(Object::toString)
            .collect(Collectors.joining("\n"));
}

And of course, make sure to implement toString() on your list objects' class.

A: In one Line :
From [12,0,1,78,12] to 12 0 1 78 12
String srt= list.toString().replaceAll("\\[|\\]|,","");

A: If you happen to be doing this on Android, there is a nice utility for this called TextUtils which has a .join(String delimiter, Iterable) method.
List<String> list = new ArrayList<String>();
list.add("Item 1");
list.add("Item 2");
String joined = TextUtils.join(", ", list);

Obviously not much use outside of Android, but figured I'd add it to this thread...

A: If you don't want the last \t after the last element, you have to use the index to check, but remember that this only "works" (i.e. is O(n)) when lists implements the RandomAccess.
List<String> list = new ArrayList<String>();
list.add("one");
list.add("two");
list.add("three");

StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(list.size() * apprAvg); // every apprAvg > 1 is better than none
for (int i = 0; i < list.size(); i++) {
    sb.append(list.get(i));
    if (i < list.size() - 1) {
        sb.append("\t");
    }
}
System.out.println(sb.toString());

A: List<String> stringList = getMyListOfStrings();
StringJoiner sj = new StringJoiner(" ");
stringList.stream().forEach(e -> sj.add(e));
String spaceSeparated = sj.toString()

You pass to the new StringJoiner the char sequence you want to be used as separator. If you want to do a CSV: new StringJoiner(", ");

A: Loop through it and call toString.  There isn't a magic way, and if there were, what do you think it would be doing under the covers other than looping through it?  About the only micro-optimization would be to use StringBuilder instead of String, and even that isn't a huge win - concatenating strings turns into StringBuilder under the covers, but at least if you write it that way you can see what's going on.
StringBuilder out = new StringBuilder();
for (Object o : list)
{
  out.append(o.toString());
  out.append("\t");
}
return out.toString();

A: Java 8 introduces a String.join(separator, list) method; see Vitalii Federenko's answer.
Before Java 8, using a loop to iterate over the ArrayList was the only option:
DO NOT use this code, continue reading to the bottom of this answer to see why it is not desirable, and which code should be used instead:
ArrayList<String> list = new ArrayList<String>();
list.add("one");
list.add("two");
list.add("three");

String listString = "";

for (String s : list)
{
    listString += s + "\t";
}

System.out.println(listString);

In fact, a string concatenation is going to be just fine, as the javac compiler will optimize the string concatenation as a series of append operations on a StringBuilder anyway. Here's a part of the disassembly of the bytecode from the for loop from the above program:
   61:  new #13; //class java/lang/StringBuilder
   64:  dup
   65:  invokespecial   #14; //Method java/lang/StringBuilder."<init>":()V
   68:  aload_2
   69:  invokevirtual   #15; //Method java/lang/StringBuilder.append:(Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/lang/StringBuilder;
   72:  aload   4
   74:  invokevirtual   #15; //Method java/lang/StringBuilder.append:(Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/lang/StringBuilder;
   77:  ldc #16; //String \t
   79:  invokevirtual   #15; //Method java/lang/StringBuilder.append:(Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/lang/StringBuilder;
   82:  invokevirtual   #17; //Method java/lang/StringBuilder.toString:()Ljava/lang/String;

As can be seen, the compiler optimizes that loop by using a StringBuilder, so performance shouldn't be a big concern.
(OK, on second glance, the StringBuilder is being instantiated on each iteration of the loop, so it may not be the most efficient bytecode. Instantiating and using an explicit StringBuilder would probably yield better performance.)
In fact, I think that having any sort of output (be it to disk or to the screen) will be at least an order of a magnitude slower than having to worry about the performance of string concatenations.
Edit: As pointed out in the comments, the above compiler optimization is indeed creating a new instance of StringBuilder on each iteration. (Which I have noted previously.)
The most optimized technique to use will be the response by Paul Tomblin, as it only instantiates a single StringBuilder object outside of the for loop.
Rewriting to the above code to:
ArrayList<String> list = new ArrayList<String>();
list.add("one");
list.add("two");
list.add("three");

StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
for (String s : list)
{
    sb.append(s);
    sb.append("\t");
}

System.out.println(sb.toString());

Will only instantiate the StringBuilder once outside of the loop, and only make the two calls to the append method inside the loop, as evidenced in this bytecode (which shows the instantiation of StringBuilder and the loop):
   // Instantiation of the StringBuilder outside loop:
   33:  new #8; //class java/lang/StringBuilder
   36:  dup
   37:  invokespecial   #9; //Method java/lang/StringBuilder."<init>":()V
   40:  astore_2

   // [snip a few lines for initializing the loop]
   // Loading the StringBuilder inside the loop, then append:
   66:  aload_2
   67:  aload   4
   69:  invokevirtual   #14; //Method java/lang/StringBuilder.append:(Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/lang/StringBuilder;
   72:  pop
   73:  aload_2
   74:  ldc #15; //String \t
   76:  invokevirtual   #14; //Method java/lang/StringBuilder.append:(Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/lang/StringBuilder;
   79:  pop

So, indeed the hand optimization should be better performing, as the inside of the for loop is shorter and there is no need to instantiate a StringBuilder on each iteration.

A: Most Java projects often have apache-commons lang available.  StringUtils.join() methods is very nice and has several flavors to meet almost every need.
public static java.lang.String join(java.util.Collection collection,
                                    char separator)

public static String join(Iterator iterator, String separator) {
    // handle null, zero and one elements before building a buffer
    Object first = iterator.next();
    if (!iterator.hasNext()) {
        return ObjectUtils.toString(first);
    }
    // two or more elements
    StringBuffer buf =
        new StringBuffer(256); // Java default is 16, probably too small
    if (first != null) {
        buf.append(first);
    }
    while (iterator.hasNext()) {
        if (separator != null) {
            buf.append(separator);
        }
        Object obj = iterator.next();
        if (obj != null) {
            buf.append(obj);
        }
    }
    return buf.toString();
}

Parameters:
collection - the Collection of values to join together, may be null
separator - the separator character to use
Returns: the joined String, null if
  null iterator input
Since:
  2.3

A: If you're using Eclipse Collections, you can use the makeString() method.
ArrayList<String> list = new ArrayList<String>();
list.add("one");
list.add("two");
list.add("three");

Assert.assertEquals(
    "one\ttwo\tthree",
    ArrayListAdapter.adapt(list).makeString("\t"));

If you can convert your ArrayList to a FastList, you can get rid of the adapter.
Assert.assertEquals(
    "one\ttwo\tthree",
    FastList.newListWith("one", "two", "three").makeString("\t"));

Note: I am a committer for Eclipse Collections.

A: The below code may help you,
List list = new ArrayList();
list.add("1");
list.add("2");
list.add("3");
String str = list.toString();
System.out.println("Step-1 : " + str);
str = str.replaceAll("[\\[\\]]", "");
System.out.println("Step-2 : " + str);

Output:
Step-1 : [1, 2, 3]
Step-2 : 1, 2, 3

A: May not be the best way, but elegant way.
Arrays.deepToString(Arrays.asList("Test", "Test2")
import java.util.Arrays;

    public class Test {
        public static void main(String[] args) {
            System.out.println(Arrays.deepToString(Arrays.asList("Test", "Test2").toArray()));
        }
    }

Output
[Test, Test2]

A: Would the following be any good:
List<String> streamValues = new ArrayList<>();
Arrays.deepToString(streamValues.toArray()));

A: Download the Apache Commons Lang and use the method
 StringUtils.join(list)

 StringUtils.join(list, ", ") // 2nd param is the separator.

You can implement it by yourself, of course, but their code is fully tested and is probably the best possible implementation.
I am a big fan of the Apache Commons library and I also think it's a great addition to the Java Standard Library.

A: For seperating using tabs instead of using println you can use print
ArrayList<String> mylist = new ArrayList<String>();

mylist.add("C Programming");
mylist.add("Java");
mylist.add("C++");
mylist.add("Perl");
mylist.add("Python");

for (String each : mylist)
{
    System.out.print(each);
    System.out.print("\t");
}

A: Android has a TextUtil class you can use http://developer.android.com/reference/android/text/TextUtils.html
String implode = TextUtils.join("\t", list);

A: For this simple use case, you can simply join the strings with comma. If you use Java 8:
String csv = String.join("\t", yourArray);

otherwise commons-lang has a join() method:
String csv = org.apache.commons.lang3.StringUtils.join(yourArray, "\t");

A: In Java 8 it's simple. See example for list of integers:
String result = Arrays.asList(1,2,3).stream().map(Object::toString).reduce((t, u) -> t + "\t" + u).orElse("");

Or multiline version (which is simpler to read):
String result = Arrays.asList(1,2,3).stream()
    .map(Object::toString)
    .reduce((t, u) -> t + "\t" + u)
    .orElse("");

Update - a shorter version
String result = Arrays.asList(1,2,3).stream()
                .map(Object::toString)
                .collect(Collectors.joining("\t"));

A: This is a pretty old question, but I figure I might as well add a more modern answer - use the Joiner class from Guava:
String joined = Joiner.on("\t").join(list);

A: An elegant way to deal with trailing separation characters is to use Class Separator
StringBuilder buf = new StringBuilder();
Separator sep = new Separator("\t");
for (String each: list) buf.append(sep).append(each);
String s = buf.toString();

The toString method of Class Separator returns the separater, except for the first call. Thus we print the list without trailing (or in this case) leading separators.

A: In Java 8 or later:
String listString = String.join(", ", list);

In case the list is not of type String, a joining collector can be used:
String listString = list.stream().map(Object::toString)
                        .collect(Collectors.joining(", "));

A: I see quite a few examples which depend on additional resources, but it seems like this would be the simplest solution: (which is what I used in my own project) which is basically just converting from an ArrayList to an Array and then to a List.
    List<Account> accounts = new ArrayList<>();

   public String accountList()
   {
      Account[] listingArray = accounts.toArray(new Account[accounts.size()]);
      String listingString = Arrays.toString(listingArray);
      return listingString;
   }

A: This is quite an old conversation by now and apache commons are now using a StringBuilder internally: http://commons.apache.org/lang/api/src-html/org/apache/commons/lang/StringUtils.html#line.3045
This will as we know improve performance, but if performance is critical then the method used might be somewhat inefficient. Whereas the interface is flexible and will allow for consistent behaviour across different Collection types it is somewhat inefficient for Lists, which is the type of Collection in the original question.
I base this in that we are incurring some overhead which we would avoid by simply iterating through the elements in a traditional for loop. Instead there are some additional things happening behind the scenes checking for concurrent modifications, method calls etc. The enhanced for loop will on the other hand result in the same overhead since the iterator is used on the Iterable object (the List).

A: You can use a Regex for this. This is as concise as it gets
System.out.println(yourArrayList.toString().replaceAll("\\[|\\]|[,][ ]","\t"));

A: How about this function:
public static String toString(final Collection<?> collection) {
    final StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder("{");
    boolean isFirst = true;
    for (final Object object : collection) {
        if (!isFirst)
            sb.append(',');
        else
            isFirst = false;
        sb.append(object);
    }
    sb.append('}');
    return sb.toString();
}

it works for any type of collection...

Half of Twitter's top advertisers appear to be leaving the platform within a month of Musk's acquisition, report says
The few weeks since Elon Musk took over the reins of Twitter have been filled with chaos — including one launch, take down and Restart of premium services and the undoing controversial figures. And this week, a new report shows the impact the management change could have on the social media giant's finances.
Non-profit watchdog group Media Matters for America published a report Tuesday that concluded that Twitter has lost half of its top advertisers since Elon Musk acquired the platform in late October.
According to the report, 50 of the platform's top 100 advertisers, who account for about $2 billion in spend since 2020, have "announced or seemingly stopped advertising in recent weeks." These companies had brought in more than $750 million in advertising in 2022 alone, the report said, which was based on current data as of Nov. 21.
Chevrolet, Chipotle Mexican Grill, Ford and Jeep are among the companies that issued a statement or were publicly reported to have recently discontinued their advertising on the site, the report said. Others, dubbed "silent stoppers" by Media Matters, appear to have since stopped their ads on Twitter Musk's takeover, the report found using Pathmatics data. Those companies include AMC Networks, AT&T, BlackRock, Chanel, and Kellogg.
Not every company included in the report explicitly said they stopped or slowed down the ads because of Musk. Earlier this month, for example, a spokesperson for Kellogg's said the company was pausing its advertising because it "continued to follow this new direction and review our marketing spend."
Another seven companies appear to be slowing their ads on Twitter "to almost nothing," the report said. Those companies have spent more than $255 million on the platform since 2020, and nearly $118 million since January 1.
An analysis published Tuesday by The Washington Post found that more than a third of Twitter's top advertisers have not advertised on the platform in the past two weeks. For example, Jeep and Mars sweets have had no ads on the site since Nov. 7, according to The Post.
"Mars began suspending advertising activity on Twitter in late September when we learned of some significant brand safety and eligibility incidents impacting our brands," Mars told The Post in a statement.
Many advertisers have expressed concern about the site's possible new strategies for content moderation and how those policies are being implemented can affect their brand image.
An advertiser explains why they pause their Twitter ad campaigns: pic.twitter.com/jc0hBGzO4P
— Peter Yang (@petergyang) November 21, 2022
Earlier this week, the CEO of a medium-sized business-to-business company wrote to the communications site Blind that they have halted their $750,000 per month Twitter ad spend for the past few weeks. The company isn't on the list of the platform's top advertisers, but the executive's much-shared post says Twitter typically makes up 8-10% of their mix.
In the two weeks after Musk took control of Twitter, the executive said their ad campaign performance "dropped significantly" as engagement plummeted. They also said "serious brand safety issues" were seen as "hardcore anti-Semitism and adult spam persisted for days even when flagged".
They didn't blame Musk for these issues, noting that some of the issues could have been caused by a "shift in users on the platform", but said they were issues that "really cost us money" regardless.
Musk himself has that complained of a loss of ads on the site.
On Tuesday, a Twitter user pointed to an Oct. 28 tweet in which Musk promised to create a content moderation board to discuss the reinstatement of banned accounts. "[S]spike of "entirely fictional" tweets," the person wrote, suggesting that Musk was ignoring his promise to reinstate previously suspended users.
Musk responded by blaming activists. "A large coalition of political/social activist groups agreed not to try to kill Twitter by depriving us of advertising revenue if I agreed to this condition."
"They broke the deal," he said.
A day after Media Matters published their report, Twitter also made the launch of new "performance advertising solutions that drive results and relevance." The launch aims to provide businesses with a stronger return on investment while delivering more "relevant advertising" to consumers, Twitter said.

In the wake of its corporate convention, which reportedly drew thousands of vendors and their associates, the National Coalition of Associations of 7-Eleven Franchisees, (NCASEF) is requesting that 7-Eleven, Inc. (SEI) open its books and show how much money it collected from the vendors who pay big money to show their products and services to franchisees and corporate executives.
SEI promotes its business as a way to make "franchise ownership easy and profitable." Its website states, "As a franchise owner, you get to leverage 7‑Eleven's super buying power and offer your customers what they love at great prices, and without cutting into your profit margins. We buy big, so you can get the benefit of negotiated pricing and terms." According to Item 8 of SEI's most recent franchise disclosure document, SEI's revenue in 2018 from franchisee required purchase and/or leases was $2.58B.
But, the reality is that franchisees sometimes pay more for items that they could purchase from warehouse clubs like Costco. The SEI franchise agreement makes no guarantees that franchisees receive the best pricing or most advantageous terms from the supply chain run by the corporation, even as it collects millions from the vendors who help supply stores coast to coast.
The National Coalition, which is an elected, independent body representing more than 7,000 7-Eleven franchised locations in the U.S., has repeatedly asked SEI to apply vendor payments to the cost of goods, but the company has yet to show any accounting. SEI says there is a process in place for its Franchisee Selection Committee to review 7-Eleven's contracts with vendors, but this committee of just five franchisees is hemmed in by a process shrouded in secrecy and limited in its capacity.
"Franchisees should have a voice on how to best use that money. SEI should not be using the millions it collects to defray expenses they should bear," said Michael Jorgensen, the National Coalition's Executive Vice Chairman.
In a 2018 survey of National Coalition members, only 12 percent said they believe 7-Eleven gets the lowest cost of goods from its vendor partner and only 10 percent said 7-Eleven has franchisees' best interests at heart. Full results of the National Coalition's survey can be found here.
