So I'm writing a news app that has to periodically refresh it's
database of articles.

I want to refresh after a certain amount of time has passed. I could
check in the onStart of every activity, but then I'd wind up
refreshing, and preventing user interaction in the middle of an app
"session".

If I need to refresh, I'd like to refresh when coming back from the
home screen, but I don't want to refresh when coming back from another
activity within the same app. Other than some convoluted hacks, I
don't know how to make this determination.
