    android:text="@string/fa_github"
    android:shadowColor="#22000000"
    android:shadowDx="3"
    android:shadowDy="3"
    android:shadowRadius="1"

getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
MenuItem github = menu.findItem(R.id.action_github);
		IconDrawable ic = new IconDrawable(this, R.string.fa_github);
