Get thumbnails (in MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails) associated with MediaStore.Images.Media

Last exercise demonstrate how to "Get path of image in MediaStore.Images.Media from SimpleCursorAdapter". In this exercise, the associated thumbnails (in MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails) can be retrieved via the Cursor.
