BlogReader app doesn't work in Android Studio.

Hi, I'm following Android track and completed BlogReader app along with Eclipse + ADT.

After viewing lessons on Android Studio, and having a lot of troubles with SDKs management in Eclipse (unfixable bugs), I decided to switch on Android Studio.

So I imported BlogReader app and generated even build gradle file, at first it gave me an error on missing api for 19, so I downloaded them and it worked (about compiling). Now, keep in mind that BlogReader app for me was working on Eclipse, now when I run it on Genymotion (great emulator I have to say, 1 second to run an app instead of half minute), it says me "No items to display!". First think I checked is on Internet connection, but there is already. So I checked on the log and I had this error:
