Controlling Thread

Creating a Thread

   Thread aThread = new SimpleThread("Jamaica");

Starting a Thread
```
   aThread.start();
```
The run() method is the actual method that contains the code to be execute by the thread. The start() method calls the run() method, causing the thread to begin its execution.
Making a Thread Not Runnable
A thread bedomes Not Runnable when one of these events occurs:
- Its sleep method is invoked
- The thread cals the wait method to wait for a specific condition to be satisified.
- The thread is blocking on I/O
Stopping a Thread
A thread dies when the run method exits.
