POSITIVE LEADERSHIP AND THE RIGHT ATTITUDE.
Leadership must be by example. At first, harsh and unfamiliar conditions tend to be frightening. Marines will find themselves up against many challenges they have never met before and the environment will constantly remind them that they can become a casualty if they make mistakes. Aggressive leadership, which consistently meets and overcomes the challenges of the environment, is essential to mission accomplishment. There will be two enemies to contend with: the enemy soldier and the environment itself. The first step towards defeating these enemies is getting your Marines in the right mental attitude. The leader must maintain a positive attitude towards the mission, his Marines, and the equipment they have to carry out the job. You can be defeated psychologically, if you are not aware of the symptoms of a poorly motivated unit.

a. Core Values applied in a survival situation. Core value are very applicable to leadership in a surviv al situation. In the absence of constant adherence to our core values, subordinate Marines may suffer the consequences of injury and in extreme cases, DEATH.

b. Honor. Honor is integrity, responsibility, and accountability. Without honor in this type of environment, decisions are made with inaccurate and/or misleading information. Dishonorable actions or intentions ultimately lead to unethical behavior...trust between Marines will erode, dependability will become unimportant, and the resulting consequences to energy conservation will greatly affect a unit’s cohesion and ability to accomplish its mission.

c. Courage. Courage is doing the right thing for the right reason. Courage in this type of environment for small unit leaders to take charge of their unit. The added stress and pressure induced in mountainous terrain makes the tough decisions even tougher to make: courageous leaders take that extra step. Trust and confidence in leadership is built upon thorough training to ensure their men are capable of overcoming the fear and uncertainty of enemy and the harsh environment.

Quick Dictionary (v. 1.0)

(обновлено 2011-11-30)

Like the name suggests, Quick Dictionary aims to provide QUICK results for word meanings. The app’s main motivation is to display the meaning of a word with easy and minimum effort from the user.

While looking up the meaning of a word a user usually has to exit the current document, start an app which provides word meanings and type in the word to find the definition. Statistics show that 90% of the users, who use a dictionary app, struggle with the spelling of the word whose meaning is to be found out. Now, would it be nice if you can skip knowing the accurate spelling of a word to find its meaning? Moreover, isn’t it irritating to switch focus of screens just to know the meaning of a word?

The top grey Notification bar on your Android screen displays all important information about your Android phone that may need your attention. This bar, also called the window-shade because you can pull it down to cover your screen, is the quickest and easiest way to interact with those new and incoming events. The Quick Dictionary app uses this fantastic feature to meet your requirement.

Once you have downloaded and installed the app start the app by clicking on the launcher icon.

Go-to ‘Settings’ and check the ‘Quick Dictionary On’ button. Watch the ‘Quick Dictionary’ icon appear on the Notification bar along with the time, battery state, network state icons, etc.

Now, while reading a document or text message, you’ll often come across a word whose meaning you do not know. Simply select the word by long pressing it and copy it on the clipboard.

Pull down the notification bar (window-shade) and tap on the Quick Dictionary icon. The meaning of the word if fetched from the internet and flashed immediately as a timed pop up which will disappear after a few seconds. Quick Dictionary also has a caching feature where the searched word and its meaning is stored in the local database. Thus to find the meaning of an old word you don’t need an internet connection.

The App also provides a traditional way of looking up a word meaning where you input the word into the text box and click on the search button for results. However, you need to know the spelling of a word accurately.

EXCERPT:

A man stood a few feet away. At least what was visible looked like a man. He appeared to be a knight, similar to the one in her favorite painting, except semi-transparent. He wore mail and a dark blue surcoat with a leopard embroidered on it in bronze silk. Tall, with shoulder length hair, in the soft lamplight, his eyes were as black as his hair.

射雕英雄传 (v. 1.43)

hui.seraph опубликовал приложение 2011-11-29
(обновлено 2011-11-29)

《射雕英雄传》是金庸中期武侠小说创作的代表作品，也是金庸拥有读者最多的作品，它的发表确立了金庸“武林至尊”的地位。
    《射雕英雄传》又名《大漠英雄传》，是“射雕三部曲”之一，下接《神雕侠侣》《倚天屠龙记》。这部小说历史背景突出，场景纷繁，气势宏伟，具有鲜明的“英雄史诗”风格；在人物创造与情节安排上，它打破了传统武侠小说一味传奇，将人物作为情节附庸的模式，坚持以创造个性化的人物形象为中心，坚持人物统帅故事，按照人物性格的发展需要及其内在可能性、必然性来设置情节，从而使这部小说达到了事虽奇人却真的妙境。
    翻开整部射雕，人物众多，民族矛盾伴随着江湖恩怨，纵横交错，波澜壮阔。这些矛盾是通过郭靖的成长，从郭靖出生到郭靖成长为一代大侠的过程展开的。《射雕英雄传》，可以说是为郭靖立传，或者是一部关于郭靖的传说。我个人认为与其说《射雕英雄传》是关于郭靖的传奇，不如说是关于郭靖和黄蓉两个人的传奇。整个故事失去了郭靖，故事结构和框架会坍塌，但失去了黄蓉，也不成为故事。因为郭靖和黄蓉是密不可分的。更确切地说，《射雕英雄传》是关于郭靖和黄蓉两个人的江湖。
