public class AlarmReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
 
 private static final int MY_NOTIFICATION_ID=1;
 NotificationManager notificationManager;

 @Override
 public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
  Toast.makeText(context, "Alarm received!", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

     Intent myIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(myBlog));
     PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(
            context, 
            0, 
            myIntent, 
            Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
