  Star Wars: Databank | Binks, Jar Jar
Jar Jar braved the "nocombackie law" to present Qui-Gon to the Gungan leader, Boss Nass, even though he risked the consequence of being "pounded" to death.
For many, Jar Jar was but a joke, the subject of derision, but in the corrupt inner confines of Senate, his lanky frame stood as a rare example of non-corrupt politician interested only in the greater good of the Republic and his people.
Jar Jar was a member of the Loyalist Committee, a panel of Senators concerned with countering the increasing threat of a Separatist movement spreading throughout the galaxy.

 On "Anecdote of the Jar"
The jar is a visual surveillance point, not teasingly enigmatic but blank, without cordial allusions to illustrious urn forebears and implicitly a rebuff to Keats’s expression of ardent longing for a consummate reciprocity between art and nature.
Indeed, in ‘Anecdote of the Jar’ the Tennessee wilderness is less satisfactorily assimilated by the power of the colonising consciousness: the jar may take ‘dominion’, but the wilderness is not internalised as an active source of creative power; it does not give its energy and fecundity to the jar.
The jar is round upon a rounded piece of ground, a hill, and the image of roundness is picked up again, phonetically, in the word ground: "The jar was round upon the ground." Stevens catches the assimilation of chaos to order in the moment of transformation.

 Jar Jar Binks - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jar Jar Binks is a 6 ft 5 in (1.96 m) tall Gungan, with long ears and eyes mounted on stalks, and he resembles an anthropomorphized platypus crossed with an amphibian or a hadrosaurus.
Jar Jar is later arrested by troops loyal to Boss Nass when Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan visit Otoh Gunga, and Qui-Gon uses the excuse of this 'Life Debt' to free Jar Jar from Nass' custody.
Jar Jar took part in the Battle of Naboo, playing a key role after being given the rank of Bombad General in the Gungan Grand Army by Boss Nass, with whom he was now reconciled.

 JAR files revealed   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Uncompressed JAR files can generally be loaded more quickly than compressed JAR files, because the need to decompress the files during loading is eliminated, but download time over a network may be longer for uncompressed files.
However, the extension JAR path is interpreted as a relative path, so in general the extension JAR must be stored in the same directory as the JAR referencing it.
A signed JAR file is exactly the same as the original JAR file, except that its manifest is updated, and two additional files are added to the META-INF directory, a signature file and a signature block file.

 Jar Task
Manifests are processed by the Jar task according to the Jar file specification.
The manifest nested element allows the manifest for the Jar file to be provided inline in the build file rather than in an external file.
If a JAR file has more that one implementation of the service, a number of nested elements may be used.

 The Leyden Jar, The Circle Shock and The Thunder House
To charge a Leyden jar, touch the top of the jar to a static generator, like the Ramsden generator shown to the right.
Once the Leyden jar is "charged" the static electricity will be stored until someone connects the two conductors with a wire or their hand.
The static electricity flows until the Leyden jar is neutralized (an equal number of positive and negative charges in both the water and the copper).

 Simplify your application delivery with One-JAR   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
The result is One-JAR, a very simple software packaging solution that utilizes a Java custom classloader to dynamically load all your application classes from inside a single archive, while preserving the structure of supporting JAR files.
This mechanism is used to resolve resource-name conflicts: if two library JAR files define a resource with the same global name, the local names will be used based on the stack-frame of the caller.
One-JAR has recently been integrated with the Fat JAR Eclipse Plugin (FJEP), a tool that helps you build flattened out JAR files for deployment.

 SparkNotes: The Bell Jar: Context
The Bell Jar is an autobiographical novel that conforms closely to the events of the author’s life.
The Bell Jar was published in London in January 1963 under the pseudonym Victoria Lucas.
Plath chose to publish the work under a pseudonym in order to protect the people she portrayed in the novel, and because she was uncertain of the novel’s literary merit.

 GradeSaver: ClassicNote: About The Bell Jar
The Bell Jar was first published in London in January 1963 by William Heinemann Limited publishers under the pseudonym Victoria Lucas, for Sylvia Plath questioned the literary value of the novel and did not believe that it was a "serious work." More importantly, the novel had numerous parallels to the life of its author.
When The Bell Jar was first published, Sylvia Plath was disconcerted by the reviews, which criticized the novel a feminist counterpart to the works of J.D. Salinger.
Despite some negative reviews, The Bell Jar quickly became the definitive female rite-of-passage novel, fulfilling the British critical idea that it would become a touchstone for American youth akin to The Catcher in The Rye.

 Words Without Borders -> The Jar
That new jar, expensive and costing four onze in hard cash, while waiting for room for it to be found in the cellar, was set down for the time being in the grape-crushing shed.
With his beat-up white hat, in his shirt sleeves, his chest bare, all red in the face and dripping with sweat, he was running here and there, rolling his wolflike eyes and angrily rubbing his shaved cheeks, on which his heavy beard grew back almost as soon as it was shaved off.
Imprisoned, he was imprisoned there, in the jar he himself had repaired, and that now—there was no other solution—in order to get him out, had to be broken all over again and for good.

 Creating executable jar files   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
A jar file is simply a file containing a collection of java files (typically, java.class files, but any other kind of file could be included as well).
To make a jar file executable, you need to specify where the "main" Class is in the jar file, so the "java" command knows what main() method to invoke to get the software going.
I use the "m" command line argument to specify the manifest file mainClass, which adds information to the jar file on where the main class will be found.

Searched for two days before finally finding jars at a grocery store (practically the last one in town I hadn't checked!) and went to a friends house to build this since he's got all kinds of fittings around his shop.
I think that the most important thing is that the diffuser is roughly conical in shape, doesn't extend too far into the jar (like no more than 1/2 to 2/3), and that there's a small gap at the top of it for air movement.
Afterward the jar was very hot and stayed hot for a long time and so I left it alone until the next morning to show it off to the people at work.

I understand how to put all my classes into a JAR and to use the manifest option to indicate which class is the "Main-Class," meaning which one I want to run when I double-click it.
It seems like it must be possible, because these double-clickable JARs have icons and images, and unless it's downloading them from the Web every time, it seems like those images have to be living somewhere inside the JAR file.
Note: if the class files are packaged in a jar make sure the images are also packaged in that jar.
