Try to implement it in the same way (actually, a live wallpaper is much like any other android app). You can also use OpenGL to take advantage of the hardware acceleration (using AndEngine, for example).

If you wish more tutorials, take a look here.

Explosive device outside occupied building in Rome

During the night of July 7 an explosive device was left in front of an occupied building in Rome.

Inside the building the occupiers were celebrating their first three months of residence whilst outside a BMW dropped off a bag containing a timer and some explosive. Two occupiers noticed an LED light inside the bag and called the police.

The device was deactivated by police bomb disposal experts who gave assurances that the timer was defective. The police said it was a ?show of action? but the occupiers do not agree.

Since April Rome has been experiencing a huge wave of new housing occupations involving both private and public buildings. This followed the Tsunami Tour, action involving several political groups and some of the many people who need and are looking for a home.

The occupied building is owned by Francesco Gaetano Caltagirone?s group. Caltagirone is one of the richest and more powerful businessmen in Italy. Through different groups and holdings, he owns newspapers, cement factories and construction companies and is involved in major banks, insurance and services companies, and in the rail system.

The occupiers have to face many threats in Rome: not only repression but also fascist attacks, racist protests and the attention of local criminals and powerful economic groups.

Wal-Mart to D.C.: Require us to raise wages? We'll leave

wal-mart

16 hours ago

Wal-Mart is butting heads with Washington, D.C., over a city council vote that would require large box retailers to pay employees $12.50 an hour at minimum.

That?s more than the local minimum wage of $8.25 an hour, but no matter. A day after Wal-Mart pushed back, threatening to drop plans to build three stores in the nation's capital and reconsider its commitment to three more, D.C. lawmakers approved the bill. If signed by the mayor, the bill would require retailers with more than $1 billion in U.S. annual sales and stores 75,000 square feet or larger to pay a higher minimum wage than that of the city.

From the debate has emerged a question other U.S. cities may have: Will Wal-Mart be able to break into cities, traditionally union strongholds?

With rural and suburban America reaching saturation, Wal-Mart?s push into heavily Democratic cities has been met so far with resistance from community leaders and politicians demanding that the retailer pay its employees more.

"In terms of the major urban centers, their low wages and poor labor practices have been a large barrier," said Ken Jacobs, chair of the University of California Berkeley Center for Labor Research and Education.

Wal-Mart spokesman Steve Restivo said by email that the decision to pull out and suspend projects in the District will be a "difficult decision."

There?s also the concern that Wal-Mart wouldn?t abandon D.C. ? but would shrink its new store blueprints to below the 75,000-square-foot threshold. (It would be tough to shrink profits: In the first quarter ending April 30, net sales were $113.4 billion company-wide, and income was $3.78 billion.)

"The fear I have is they might scale back," said Joslyn Williams, president of the Metropolitan Washington Council of the AFL-CIO.

Despite an improving economy, Reverend Graylan Hagler, leader of a social justice-focused think tank of clergy members, said residents in poor neighborhoods were being left on the sidelines.

"There?s a corporate responsibility here, not only of providing jobs but of providing meaningful and dignified jobs,? Hagler said.

Wal-Mart says its average hourly wage for full-time, non-managerial employees in the U.S. is $12.78, and $12.39 in Virginia. "Our wages and benefits meet or exceed those offered by most of our competitors," Restivo said.

But Jacobs, the Berkeley labor professor, says those wages don?t represent workers overall.

"That $12.78 really masks the fact that you have a significant number of part-time workers, who are paid less," he said.

(Restivo said that "most" of Wal-Mart's workforce is full-time, but he declined to provide a percentage.)

In a 2011 paper, Jacobs said Wal-Mart could absorb the cost of a wage increase. He said even passing it along to customers would only have an incremental effect on prices.

This isn?t the first time local lawmakers have targeted Wal-Mart over wages. A similar big-box wage measure in Chicago failed in 2006 after Wal-Mart objected and then-mayor Richard Daley vetoed the legislation. Supporters fear a similar outcome in Washington, D.C., as Mayor Vincent Gray has ?serious concerns? about the city council?s bill, his spokesman Pedro Ribeiro said.

Even if Wal-Mart wins this round, Jacobs said the company will have to address its low wages if it wants to break into American cities. "At some point, Wal-Mart is going to have to deal with this issue," he said. "Ultimately, I think if cities go forward with these initiatives, Wal-Mart is going to be forced to bend."

China drawing up plans to end official game console sales ban, report claims

China drawing up plans to end official game console sales ban, report claims

China's 13-year prohibition on game console sales may soon come to an end, according to a report from the South China Morning Post. The compromise would see the likes of Sony, Nintendo and Microsoft able to manufacture game consoles in Shanghai's new free trade zone -- part of a larger governmental move to open up China's economy to the outside world -- and then market and sell said consoles across mainland China. Of course, the big three would still have to pass the Chinese government's smell test, an approval from "culture-related authorities," according to the report.

The news certainly lines up with China's goal in its original ban: "to keep underage folks away from dangerous venues and unhealthy content," Engadget China head Richard Lai wrote earlier this year in a piece detailing the history of China's game console law. In fact, Nintendo's currently able to sell game consoles in China, despite the long-standing ban; it currently markets its 3DS XL gaming handheld under the iQue brand, alongside a handful of first-party Nintendo software. Sony's also had brief approval for console sales in China in the past, including a Chinese version of the PlayStation 2 -- the company's PlayStation arm even has a headquarters in Guangzhou as part of a government-backed project.

Lifting China's game console sales ban is little more than a report at the moment, but now seems like an especially good time for the country to reconsider its stance. With new game consoles on the way from Sony and Microsoft, that's a lot of money potentially being left on the table.

Haslam: 'Absolutely not' selling the Browns - Yahoo! Sports

Despite being investigated by the FBI for fraud and reports that his company is $4 billion in debt, new Cleveland Browns owner Jimmy Haslam said Monday that he will not sell the team. "Absolutely not," Haslam told ESPN Cleveland. "We plan on owning the Browns for a long time." Haslam's trucking company, Pilot Flying J, was recently investigated by the FBI for possible fraud. Haslam has denied any knowledge of the company's alleged questionable business dealings. A dozen trucking companies sued Pilot Flying J and five former employees pleaded guilty to charges stemming from the FBI investigation. Last week, the Wall Street Journal reported that the company is $4 billion in debt and has a "downgraded" credit rating. Haslam has had to apologize to the other NFL owners and his control over the team has been questioned, but Haslam plans to hold on to the team. However, he would not comment on the Wall Street Journal report. Instead, he focused on the positive. "Since October, we put together a completely new front office, hired a new head coach with two really good coordinators, sold naming rights to the stadium, and went through free agency and the draft," Haslam said. He also said the team is working on upgrading the team headquarters and FirstEnergy Stadium. "We've spent $5 million remodeling (the team headquarters in) Berea," Haslam said. "And we're working on an upwards of $100 million remodeling of the stadium. We've been very committed to turning this franchise around." NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said that Haslam is "doing everything he's been asked" since the FBI raided Pilot Flying J. Haslam bought the Browns from Randy Lerner last year for about $1 billion. He paid Lerner $700 million up front and owes $300 million by Oct. 16, 2016.
