So named, according to Harris (author of The Antient and Present State of the County of Down), because it has to be climbed in a crawling position. The southern slopes are, indeed, relentlessly steep. An alternative name, Sliabh Snámháin, has the same meaning. Below Lamagan Slabs is a spot called Percy Bysshe, which suggests a connection with the poet Shelley. Slievelamagan is the 109th highest place in Ireland.

The seventh son
Short Summary created by Peter Walker, jackill 6 Sep 2017
Slieve Lamagan is one of the roughest of the Mournes, and its south western side rearing above the col connecting with Slieve Binnian is the site of much grunting and cursing by hillwalkers engaged on its ascent. The peak takes the form of a south-north ridge with a lesser gap on the northern side, and with very steep (on the eastern side craggy) flanks.
Park at Carrick Little carpark at
, room for 10-15 cars. Note the carpark fills quickly on weekends but it is possible to park on the roadside nearby. Walk up the farm track next the carpark over a stile to open hillside. Follow a rough track beside a wall then forest then open ground. At
on the col overlooking Ben Crom dam turn NE and pick your way up Lamagans rocky face following a rough, sometimes indistinct track to the summit.
The aforementioned col can also be approached from the Ben Crom dam itself, following a recently constructed path up to just short of the col (at time of writing; the intention is that it will reach it in due course) before climbing up the rough hillside as mentioned previously. The summit can also be reached from the north over the intervening summits of Slieve Beg and Cove Mountain: the path up the Glen River from Newcastle followed by cutting down to the Brandy Pad constitutes the start of this route.
Lamagan is a fine viewpoint for the other High Mournes, Binnian and Bearnagh in particular, but the higher ground nearby takes substantial slices out of the more distant prospects.

The "Seven Sevens". The intricacies of which I know nothing, the movers and shakers of which I know nothing and the finer objectives of which I know nothing. Essentially the thing is to ascend all the Mournes over seven hundred metres, in one day - such a day allotted, being evidenced by members of something, standing in yellow jackets at points and ….. pointing.
I expect some people sprint the course - backwards, between somersaults. I myself chose to walk it, in flagrant disregard of the event proper: in secret. It is manageable for regular track rats, but gruelling. Kick off at Carrick Little and zoom up the beautiful Annalong track to the Castles. Legover the Saddle and up/down Donard to Commedagh: blitz the ridge to Hare's Gap. Wheel round Bearnagh and up Meelmore thereoff to Meelbeg and reverse to the saddle between, down to the bog and up Bearnagh.You may wish to be sick at this point: be it, because in another hour you may be anything (a dandelion or a warthog) and not know it. To the Brandy Pad and up Slieve Beg. Then Cove: breakfast on a hair trigger: but sure there are only two left: ONLY Lamagan, ONLY Binnian! Atop Lamagan and your legs have become candy floss and you're singing something from South Pacific. Then Binnian like a mirage, edges back as you edge forward. The next hour could be years or seconds then you're in the car in the passenger seat, hunting for the steering wheel. Take this route, because when you come off, you're only minutes on a tarred road from the car. All others close in endless trails where you could could easily succumb and wake up looking at a crow with your one good eye. Utterly pointless and maybe obligatory.

The Mourne Seven Sevens
8 Aug 2010
I climbed this mountain yesterday as part of the Mourne 7'7s. Started in Donard car park around 7am and followed the traditional route to the summit of Slieve Donard - up to the saddle and left. Upon reaching the summit, it was a case of following the wall back down to the saddle and up Slieve Commedagh. From one summit to the other took me 35 minutes. Hikers are faced with a choice at this stage - either head along the wall towards Bernagh, Meelmore and Meelbeg or head towards Lamagan and Binnian. I decided to head towards Lamagan. So, back down to the saddle and along part of the Brandypad, then turn left just after the castles of Commedagh. There is no need to climb Beg and Cove summits, keep to the right until you find a path, which will lead to the summit of Lamagan. Upon summiting Lamagan, I headed towards Ben Crom Dam. It had been very cloudy and windy until this stage; however for a few minutes the mist cleared and the reservoir appeared out of nowhere! At the point between Lamagan and Binnian, in front of the reservoir, I left my rucksack and headed towards Slieve Binnian via the Back Castles. As always, it was very windy. The trek between Lamagan and Binnian took approx 1.5 hours. Upon returning to Ben Crom dam, try to find a path which leads towards the embankment and cross. This is the half way point; which must be reached by 2.30pm. The mist had cleared by this stage and was replaced by sunshine. I had previously been advised that the trek from Binnian to Meelbeg is the tough part. I would certainly agree. For those considering the walk in the future, do not look at a grid map at the valley between Doan and Ben Crom at the wide contour lines and think that because there is little ascending it must be simple. It is very difficult. The marshy conditions around the river in this valley sap energy. It took 2 hours for me to climb Meelbeg from Ben Crom Dam. Upon summiting Meelbeg, great views were to be had over eastern, central and western Mournes. This was the first time I had got clear skies on this mountain! Follow the wall up Meelmore and Bernagh. If the Binnian/Meelbeg trek is energy-draining, the descent from Bernagh to Donard Car park was even worse! Follow the wall to Hare's Gap and then the Brandypad to the saddle between Donard and Commedagh. Thereafter follow the path towards the finish. All in all, a very rewarding challenge but gruelling in places. Finished at 7.30pm. Advantages of this approach: the trek to Lamagan over Beg and Cove is easier than the ascent of Lamagan from Ben Crom Dam. It is also quicker to reach the half way point. Advantages of the Commedagh-Bernagh route would be the finishing point at Donard Car park is considerably shorter from Lamagan than Bernagh. Also, hikers are walking down rather than up the marshy valley between Doan and Ben Crom.

There he was, leader of men and lumbering helplessly into me, circa the summit of Lamagan: nasal system at meltdown, sweat beading on each earlobe and doing that thing black dogs do in the sun - human beings think it is a smile, but it's not: it's a teeth-filter for bugs, as the critter gags for oxygen. The teeth tried to open, but couldn't and he made a sort of bleating/pleading/dying noise as he floundered on. The objective was to out-walk his wards - age 15 and such - and at the guts of 50 years despite 30 of them in the hills, he had no chance against elastic legs, balloon lungs and innocent determination. And that in some ways is what Slievelamagan is about. The incline on her sultry Southern face is not to be messed with. An advance and rewarding canter off Binnian puts you in the mood for more. Lamagan disabuses you of that. If you are fool enough to maintain a momentum, you will sicken at best, a third of the way up and wish you hadn't scoffed the cheese sandwiches 20mins earlier. She's a big oul girl and only the mad or the bad will do her in one lash, that is to say without dropping to their knees for mercy. Postcard pics of the Mournes tend to hide her behind something else. Here be Binnian, here be Bearnagh, here be Donard. Where be Lamagan? Sure, right here under your feet where those sandwiches have just come up. The slabs off her Eastern crags are stupendous and unsettle the best of us, the damp sandy gullies and red peat plugs off her Northern slopes are odd and wonderful and her Western flanks are generally untrailed. Best from Carrick Little and a protein breakfast, much earlier.

Spiderwoman (Kernowclimber) on FM
Rock on!
4 Oct 2010
Having walked up Slieve Lamagan the previous weekend we decided that a more challenging ascent would be fun. With this in mind an attempt on a rock climbing route was called for and FM on the Lamagan slabs fitted the bill. FM (rated V. Diff) is one of the longest multi-pitch routes in the Mournes with about 160m of direct climbing and another 200m or so of grade 1/2 scambling and walking to reach the top of Slieve Lamagan. The Lamgan slabs can be seen on the walk-in from the Carrick carpark and at first sight appear to rear-up as an amost vertical un-climable wall. Fortunately this is an optical illusion created by the perspective of the view from the footpath for upon reaching the foot of the slabs their true nature becomes apparent.
The start of the climb can be reached by taking the footpath eastwards around the foot of Percy Bysshe before turning northwards to reach a path running along the foot of Slieve Lamagan. Follow this path eastwards again until a faint path at
can be taken up the boulder and heather clad footslopes of Lamagan. The rock climb begans at the foot of a white slab in a small gravel floored embayment at
. I won't describe the climb in detail as there is a good description in the recently published book on 'Rock Climbs in the Mourne Mountains'. But some points to note are: the rock is generally good and clean (mostly 45-55 degree slope), some parts are mossy and rock shoes are recommended; the crux is a step up onto a sloping ledge on the third pitch (this was wet on the day of our climb and I traversed left below the ledge for about 7m and then climbed a short overhanging wall to step back above the sloping ledge); protection is generally good but there are long run-outs on the slabs for the leader (an uncontrolled slide down the slabs wouldn't be pleasant).
There is a commanding view of the Annalong valley during the climb with the floor of the valley appearing almost as a map beneath us. Every so often the minute moving dots of walkers could be seen on the paths below us, occasionaly stopping to watch our progress up the rock face.
FM is an excellent and airy route, perhaps not on the alpine scale of Carrot Ridge, but certainly a bit harder and more commiting that than the latter. A 50m-60m rope and a selection of slings and hexs are required.

It was a snowy day on lamagan
deelambola on Slievelamagan, 2007
15 Feb 2007
After many summer climbs of lamagan, it was decided to tackle a winter ascent. After slipping up the road even on the way to the car park we dawned our wet gear as the mist rolled in and the sky turned dark. Walking up the path along annolong wood it was clear to see winter had taken its toll, what once was a track during the summer was now a full scale flowing river. Wading on we hit the bottom of lamagan and began our ascent which quickly became a climb in two feet of snow. The visibility was practically zero but the adrenalin thrill of the snow made it worth while. The summit was reached but there would be no lunch stop today as the blizzard blinded the eyes and all extremities were frozen. We descended towards Ben Crom and walked along silent valley back towards the car. A cold but enjoyable day. Roll on next week.

Resource Use
Becoming a Responsible Company
We define the quality of our company, in part, by the degree to which we can reduce our impact on the environment. This means more than auditing the materials and methods we use for the products we make. It means taking a holistic approach to all aspects of our business, which includes how we use resources at our buildings and facilities.
Ventura, California – Global Headquarters
We have seven buildings on our Ventura campus. The oldest was built in the 1870s, the newest in 1997. Because they were built some years back, most do not embody real environmental concern, though all have been upgraded to improve environmental efficiencies.
For more details, click here
Reno, Nevada - Service Center
We built our Reno Service Center in 1996 at a cost of $19 million. Located on the banks of the Truckee River, at the site of the old Tahoe Timber Lumber Mill, it is architecturally spare and utilitarian in design. The Reno Service Center houses the physical components required to ship Patagonia products throughout the world. Though it cost us more to build, the green innovations we incorporated into its construction paid for themselves within three to eight years with energy savings of 30-35 percent. In 2006, we doubled the size of the Reno Service Center. Our many efforts to further reduce its impact on the environment earned it a gold level Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification from the U.S. Green Building Council.
For more details, click here.
Patagonia Retail Stores
We currently operate over 30 retail stores in North America and have a distinct philosophy when opening new ones. Ever since we transformed the former meatpacking facility (above photo) into our first store in Ventura in the early '70s, it's been our belief that using and improving existing buildings, rather than constructing new ones, is the most responsible thing to do. We do our best to stick to this principle, but when we can't, we build our buildings to last, design them with aesthetic appeal and try to make use of environmentally conscious construction materials and fixtures. And we always do our best to make our stores unique, reflecting the history and natural features of their locations.
Energy Use
Burning nonrenewable fossil fuels to produce electricity and generate heat pollutes air, soil and water, speeds global warming and further destabilizes an already unstable world dependent on hydrocarbons. Hydroelectric dams flood precious landscapes and compromise important wildlife habitat. Nuclear power poses all sorts of dire threats, among them radioactive waste, nuclear proliferation and the potential for devastating accidents.
Energy Use: Ventura
We have 498 solar panels at our headquarters that reduce our overall electricity demand from the grid by an estimated 14 percent. We retrofitted our design studio with LED lighting, which is expected to save 38 percent of the electricity previously used for lighting. In 2012, we installed a new heating, ventilation and air-conditioning system in the Lost Arrow Building. It runs on electricity and is designed to draw in air from the outside, clean it via an ultraviolet air scrubber and filter, then push it through the building to replicate an "open window environment." We installed SMARTGRID readers throughout the building to ensure the system is circulating air appropriately. It can also heat and cool the building as needed.
Energy Use: Reno
As part of the LEED certification, we took a number of steps to reduce our use of energy. Skylights track the sun and translucent roof-mounted smoke vents reflect natural light into the Reno Service Center, which saves electricity and makes for a more pleasant work environment. Photo sensors and motion detectors on light fixtures shut lights off when they're not being used. High-efficiency commercial boilers drive our radiant heat system. We installed R30 insulation in the roof and R12 rigid insulation on warehouse walls to help retain heat in winter and to keep the building cool in summer. We use no air-conditioning in the warehouse, instead employing a night-flush vent system that replaces the hot air of day with cool, nighttime air. We installed metering equipment to ensure the Reno Service Center is operating at peak levels. The metering equipment monitors lighting systems and controls, constant- and variable-motor loads, variable-frequency-drive operations, air- and water-economizers and heat-recovery cycles, air-distribution-static pressures and ventilation-air volumes, boiler efficiencies, building-related-process energy systems and equipment, indoor-water riser and outdoor-irrigation systems. Facilities personnel can easily access a central workstation to review the operation of our systems. These measures result in a more energy efficient and comfortable indoor environment, while reducing both equipment and operating costs. Even small energy savings can result in large environmental and financial gains over the years.
Energy Use: Patagonia Stores
In 2011/2012 we retrofitted two of our stores with LED lighting, which achieved a 25 percent energy savings in Ventura and 35 percent in Denver. We also installed LED lighting in our new Chicago store.
Storm-Water Runoff
When rainfall hits an impermeable surface – such as a parking lot, roof or sidewalk – it runs off, carrying with it all sorts of unsavory stuff. Garbage, animal waste, oil, gasoline, detergents, pesticides, chemical residues, brake linings, etc., are washed away, gravity carrying the polluted storm water to the lowest point, which is usually a drain. From there it might flow into a channel, a creek or river, or in coastal communities, directly into the sea. The first heavy rainfall of the season is the first flush. For health reasons, here in Ventura, swimmers and surfers are strongly advised to stay out of the ocean for 72 hours after it rains. Our Ventura headquarters is about an eighth of a mile from the Ventura River, and our Reno Service Center is on the banks of the Truckee River. To try to mitigate some of the waterborne waste that flows from our facilities, we've taken some measures.
Storm-Water Runoff: Ventura
We replaced two sections of the asphalt in our parking lot with permeable cement, which allows rainwater to percolate through and into the soil. We also added an infiltration basin, or bioswale, and have plans to add another. A bioswale is a low-lying, earth and gravel channel that drains part of our parking lot. It allows storm water to soak into the soil, which naturally filters it. When the soil becomes too saturated, runoff flows into a storm drain. By that time, it is hoped, most of the really concentrated pollutants from our parking lot have been absorbed.
Storm-Water Runoff: Reno
When we added on to our Reno Service Center in 2007, we installed permeable cement pavers in the parking lot that allow water to percolate back into the ground. We integrated detention ponds into the landscape to capture runoff from the roof before it passes into the soil, and in the paved area of the receiving dock, we installed two sand/oil separation units to aggressively filter out contaminants before runoff heads into city storm drains.
The more asphalt and cement covering the landscape, the more runoff. The more lawn non permeable and nonnative plants, the more irrigation water required. The more spray sprinklers, the more evaporation.
Landscaping: Ventura
Most of the landscape at our Ventura headquarters was planted several decades ago. We have a number of mature nonnative trees and plants. In recent years, we replaced most of our lawn (which was scant to begin with) with plants, many of them native, that require little irrigation water once they're established. Outdoor employee seating areas and meeting places are situated on permeable surfaces, and an herb garden provides forage for diners in our café.
Landscaping: Reno
LEED standards required that we use no more than 50% of the potable water a typical commercial property of similar size in the Reno area would use for irrigation. So instead of planting a lot of thirsty plants and turf, we commissioned a landscape architect to design a xeric landscape plan that uses a variety of native plants, shrubs and trees, as well as some nonnative vegetation that doesn't require much water. We do have a small amount of turf.
Water Use
Water Use: Ventura
Irrigation typically takes the biggest gulp of overall water use, though in the case of our Ventura campus, it's only about five percent. Sinks, toilets, showers, washing machines, reverse osmosis systems and a dishwasher drink the rest. To reduce water use, all but a couple of urinals are waterless, which saves one gallon per flush. All commodes are dual flush (.5 gallon and 1.3 gallon). Bathroom faucets are on sensors; remove your hand and the water shuts off within two seconds. Showerheads are not low-flow. The dishwasher in our kitchen uses about two gallons per wash. The two top-load washing machines we use to "killer wash test" our fabrics in our fabric lab use 16 gallons per load. We couldn't get the same test results with high-efficiency frontloaders. The three small areas on campus planted with turf are irrigated with pop-up sprinklers, as is a narrow strip in our parking lot that's planted with ground cover. The rest of our campus is either on drip or requires no irrigation.
Water Use: Reno
Toilets use 1.6 gallons per flush. Urinals use anywhere from .25 cup to 1.5 cups per flush; two are waterless. Showers are equipped with low-flow showerheads. Bathroom faucets are standard aerator style. Two of the restrooms have motion sensors to turn them on and off. There's one industrial dishwasher, a standard washing machine that averages five loads a day, and a test station for fishing waders, which uses the water over and over.
Employee Transportation
The automobile is a wondrous tool, but it comes with some serious downsides: air pollution, including carbon dioxide, traffic and parking congestion, oil spills, etc. To try to mitigate some of the harm we do, we've taken a few steps to encourage our employees in North America to drive less and provided a means to recharge electric cars.
All North American Locations
Our Drive-Less program provides a monetary incentive to employees to carpool, ride a bike, skateboard, take public transit; anything but drive alone to work. It pays all U.S. and Canadian employees $2 per trip, up to two trips per day. Each employee can earn up to $500 (pre-tax) per year. In the first year, more than 900 employees participated. As a collective result, in that first year we drove 690,000 fewer miles, cut CO2 emissions by 500,000 pounds and saved 25,700 gallons of fuel.

We installed two Blink electric vehicle chargers in 2012 at our Ventura headquarters for use by both Patagonia employees and the public. They're connected to the electrical panel on the first floor of our Crystal Palace building, which is powered by solar panels. Charging times depend on the type of vehicle, and cost users $.49/kWh to charge their vehicle.
Employee Transportation: Reno
Along with monetary incentives offered to employees through our Drive-Less Program, we provide secure bicycle storage with convenient changing/shower/locker facilities for 5% or more of our employees, have a hybrid car for business use and offer preferred parking for carpoolers and employees with alternative-fuel vehicles.
Dams and Dam Removal
Patagonia supports a transition toward lower-impact energy and water sources that, combined with conservation and increased efficiencies, cause less harm to ecosystems, communities and cultures.
Path Toward Energy Efficiency
Patagonia does follow three general guidelines to help us choose as wisely as possible from available or innovate new practices and to minimize the environmental harm we cause and mitigate the effects.

text: I'm trying to measure the periodicity of a random generator, but I've run into a theoretical problem. Basically, I was going on the assumption that if a generator repeated a sequence then the period was certain. And so far, this has been the case. But now that I think of it, a sufficiently complex generator could possibly repeat itself but not actually be stuck in a periodic cycle, couldn't it? If so, the only way I can think to handle it is to increase the number of passes and return some sort of probablistic "certificate" of periodicity. Am I way off base here?

JACKSON, Miss. (AP) — Mississippi's only abortion clinic missed a Friday deadline to comply with a state law requiring each of its physicians to get hospital admitting privileges.
The state Health Department won't close the clinic immediately. The department will set an inspection later, and if it orders a shutdown, the clinic can appeal.
Diane Derzis is administrator of the clinic, Jackson Women's Health Organization. She says every Jackson-area hospital where the clinic applied for privileges said it doesn't want to deal with the pressure of being associated with abortion providers.
Republican Gov. Phil Bryant signed the law in 2012, and he says his goal is to shut the clinic.
The clinic filed a lawsuit last summer, and a federal judge gave the facility time to try to comply with the law.

Standing by a parking meter, When I caught a glimpse of Rita, Filling in a ticket in her little white book. In a cap she looked much older, And the bag across her shoulder Made her look a little like a milit'ry man. Lovely Rita, meter maid, May I enquire discreetly, "When are you free to take some tea with me?" Took her out and tried to win her, Had a laugh, and over dinner Told her I would really like to see her again. Got the bill and Rita paid it, Took her home, I nearly made it, Sitting on the sofa with a sister or two. Oh, lovely Rita, meter maid, Where would I be without you? Give us a wink and make me think of you. Lovely Rita, meter maid "Lovely Rita" Song by the Beatles from the album Sgt.

text: Friday, August 23, 2013 National Registry on Patient Outcomes Moves Forward APTA plans to have a national registry of physical therapy patient outcomes ready for widespread use by 2015, as health care requirements for quality reporting and outcomes reporting increasingly dictate payment for services. APTA says the registry will be an organized system to collect uniform data on patient outcomes that can offer clinical guidance to promote best practices; provide a reporting mechanism that meets regulatory requirements; generate benchmarking quality reports at the individual, clinic, regional, and national levels; and collect data to advance research, inform policy, and contribute to emerging payment models. At the same time, the data collected will demonstrate the value of physical therapist practice and its impact on patients and clients. The APTA Board of Directors at its meeting last week enthusiastically reaffirmed its stance that the national registry is a top priority. The board voted to proceed with ongoing efforts toward the registry, further clarifying its purpose, structure, and scope. Concerning the sustainability of such a huge undertaking, in terms of financial investment and time commitments by staff and members, the Board agreed that a business plan will be developed by the December 2013 board meeting based on the premise that the registry will be self-sustainable within 10 years. A new National Registry webpage includes a video dispatch that followed the board's deliberations; APTA will post updates and further information on the registry there as they become available. To view the entire discussion that led to the board's decision on the registry, and to see all of the open proceedings from the August meeting, visit APTA's livestream page, where video of the meeting is archived.

Skinning Tutorial Part 1: The Tools
These tutorials were created to help fill the gap on just how to create skins for Avant Browser. This first part will go over the tools that can be used to create skins.
To create the actual skin, you will need the Skin Factory. Download it here.
Tools that could be used include:
- PhotoShop
- MS Paint - included with windows
- Illustrator
- Freehand
- CorelDraw
- PaintShopPro - affordable
- ImageForge - freeware
- GIMP - freeware
- Pixia - freeware
- Just about any Icon Editing Package *
- PixelToolBox - freeware
- SnIco Edit - free/donate ware
- Microangelo - 21 day demo
- Icon Editor - 30 day demo
- IconForge - time-limited trial
Icon editors have their own problem, most do not output to a BMP file. My fix around this is to edit in the icon editor and then screen shot it into photoshop for final cleanup and exporting.
Another thing I have noticed with some icon editors is that they may not do all the sizes you need for AB icons. AB uses 16x16 for small icons, 24x24 for large icons and 21x21 for the system icons. Some icon editors do not have the option for 24x24 and 21x21 .. but this is where something like photoshop will come in handy. You can create at 32x32 and then bring into photoshop and scale it down to 24x24 or 21x21 and just a little cleanup will be needed.
Skinning Tutorial Part 2: The Background
So, now we know what kind of tools that can be used. Lets get down to business.
First we will talk about the background. Skin Factory lets you set the top and bottom background image. This image can be tiled or stretched. The background image can be any size, so long as it is small enough so that enough content is shown and you know what you are looking at.
Most backgrounds are going to be a repeating pattern so the tile option is what will most commonly be used. Stretching can be used, but that can cause some distortion with larger resolutions.
The best way to figure out what works in to play around with image sizes and settings within Skin Factory. Also, look at skins other people have created to get other ideas of how to use backgrounds.
Remember! People have to be able to read the text! So, design your skins carefully if your using really dark colors.
Skinning Tutorial Part 3: The Icons
The meat and potatoes of any skin are the icons that are used. I have already gone into the tools that can be used. Now, some more information on the icons themselves.
Icons need a background/transparent color of fuchsia (RGB: 255,0,255). This color will be replaced with what is behind it.
System Icons
These are the icons that are normally in the upper right. There are 11 different system icons with 4 different states each. Meaning you need to make 44 different images.
These icons are 21x21 (pixels) in size. That is the TOTAL CANVAS size, the actual image can be smaller.
The states of the icon button are:
- Normal: the image will be displayed when the button is
enabled and mouse is not hovered on.
- Hot: the image will be displayed when the button is enabled and mouse is hovered on.
- Down: the image will be displayed when the button is pressed down.
- Disable: the image will be displayed when the button is
Toolbar Icons
These icons are the images that are normally right below the text menu options.
These image have a MAX CANVAS size of 24x24 (pixels) for the large icons and 16x16 (pixels) for the small set of these icons, like the System Icons the actual image can be smaller.
You can make the large and small icons different if you wish, but it is best to make them the same design.
Unlike the system icons, you only need to create one large and one small toolbar icon.
Tab bar Icons
These are the images that are shown on each tab on the windows tab bar within Avant. They get displayed sequentially as each webpage loads creating an animation like effect.
These images have a max canvas size of 18x18 (pixels) and there are 10 total. The first 9 create the page load animation and the last image is what's displayed when the page is completely loaded & no favicon is present.
Other Icons
There are also 59 other images that can be changed. These icons show mostly on the Avant Browser Options dialog page as well as in the side panel, on the status bar, and on some menus.
The total canvas size for these are 16x16 (pixels)
Skinning Tutorial Part 4: Color & Visual Styles
Ok, thats enough about icons, lets move on to color & visual style.
In Skin Factory you can change the color of the toolbar font (the text) and the progress bar (the page load meter on the status bar, bottom right of AB). You'll see these settings on the bottom right hand side of Skin Factory.
Visual Styles
Beneath the color options you'll see a selection of visual styles. Visual styles affect how the menus and side panel look. They also control the highlight effect made when the mouse hovers over the toolbar icons.
There are 8 styles to choose from:
- Default
- MonaiXP
- Nexos4
- Office11Adaptive
- OfficeXP
- Roma
- Tristan2
- Xito
Skinning Tutorial Part 5: Building the Skin
So, now we know the basics. What to do from here you ask? Now we build all the images.
The easiest skin is one where you just change the top and bottom backgrounds, hardest is where you change every image.
Currently there are 44 system icons, 21 large toolbar icons, 21 small toolbar icons, 10 tab icons and 59 other for a grand total of 155 images. Remember, you don't have to finish your skin in an hour. Quality over quantity
I recommend not concerning yourself too much with the system icons and do them later. Work on the Large Toolbar images first, it is easier to scale down than to scale up. Remember to keep your edges sharp, the background color is only totally replaced if it is unshaded. Blurred edges can result in a pink outline when placed.
Be sure to name descriptively, so you know what image goes where!
Now you can put the skin together. Open up the Skin Factory app, now the first thing you have to remember is to ignore the top five rows, they are just a guide to help you see what the skin will look like. The three rows under the search bar, and the images to the right of the display window are the ones you click on to change the images for the skin. The tab and other images are changed via the drop down menus on the right.
When done, click the save button on the bottom and save the file. You can either save into "C: \\Program Files\\Avant Browser\\Skins" or into a development folder and copy there manually later.
To get your skin to show up in Avant Browser, you have to exit the browser completely and start it up again. Then go into Tools -> Skin -> Your Skin to load up your skin.

I am trying to add a loading Icon on my application.
It is basically a GIF of a rotating circle.
Whenever the user presses the Search button, and sends a request to the DataBase for some information, the loading icon should be shown and then it should disappear whenever the loading process is completed.
Here is a piece of code:
Icon = new ImageIcon("load.gif"); JLabel L = new JLabel(Icon); L.setBounds(0, 50, 65, 65); L.setVisible(false);
This is called on the init() method of the class.
Whenever the user presses the search button the method 'loading()' is invoked, it basically does:
and of coure the other method, 'stopload()' does:
The problem is that the loading icon is not shown.
I figured out that problem might be related to the fact that the GUI does not refresh (or show the component) in time and the icon is set back to visible(false) before it can be shown.
In fact, if I do not put the 'stopload()' the icon is shown properly but, of course, does not stop.
I have tried to add:
Frame.pack(); Frame.revalidate(); Frame.repaint()
or also
[the icon is added on this Panel]Panel.validate(); Panel.repaint();
and this nothing...
Basically the GUI is properly refreshed only when the Table (containing the results of the query) is shown/updated.
I have also tried to invoke the start method using a Thread, eg:
but still nothing changes..
PS. I always had problems in refreshing the Panel or Frame. In fact, for another issue I had to use some sort of trick in order to force the repaint of a specific component.
I used:
Panel.setvisible(false); Panel.setvisible(true);
[I basically hide and show the panel]
I tried to run that same method that works for another component, but it does not work for this...
I wish you a good day!

When Leonard Nimoy's earthly voyage ended last year at age 83, perhaps the most fitting sendoff for the "Star Trek" actor came from our geek-in-chief.
"Long before being nerdy was cool, there was Leonard Nimoy," President Obama declared, later adding: "I loved Spock."
Obama's well-chosen words – a mix of logical Vulcan analysis and human emotion – rang as loud and clear as William Shatner's Captain Kirk crying "Khaaaaan!" at the top of his uber-thespian lungs.
U.S. & World
Stories that affect your life across the U.S. and around the world.
As Trekkers mark the golden anniversary of "Star Trek," Spock endures as the franchise's most fascinating, influential and, perhaps, beloved character. Nimoy and Spock are celebrated anew with the Sept. 9 release "For the Love of Spock," a documentary by Nimoy's son, Adam, that marks the latest evidence of the spiky-eared icon's staying power.
"Star Trek" arrived on Sept. 6, 1966, in the midst of the space race, less than three years before the U.S. would go where no man had gone before with the moon landing.
Shatner's alpha-male Kirk embodied the spirit of the space cowboy, tapping into both the adventurous, macho image of the astronaut life and a deeper-seeded American legend of ruggedly wrought exploration and expansionism.
But Spock, the ego to Kirk's id, presaged an age dominated by technological advances in which the geeks didn't just inherit the Earth, they remade it in their own virtual image.
Sure, Kirk fought the physical battles (grappling with villains ranging from Khan to the giant lizard guy), made the speeches and got the ladies (too many to mention).
But Spock – emotion free (save for a fancy-free flower-child fling on Omicron Ceti III) and celibate (save for a once-every-seven-years mating spree) – gave the pop culture a new archetype: a science fiction hero whose brains could both supplement and beat brawn.
The Starship Enterprise's science officer rarely betrayed his feelings, even if he could speak volumes with an arched eyebrow. He operated by his own rules, as did Nimoy, a poet and photographer who, at times, had an ambivalent attachment to Spock, but ultimately embraced the character's legacy.
Spock proved the most consistently compelling figure of Gene Roddenberry's fantasy universe, up to 2013's "Star Trek into Darkness." In that film, Nimoy's final bow, Spock encounters a younger version of himself, ably played by Zachary Quinto, who narrates "For the Love of Spock."
Shatner is among those interviewed in the documentary, financed in part with Kickstarter funds ponied up by fans. The Shatner/Kirk and Nimoy/Spock friendship is one of well-matched opposites – off-screen, and on. Nimoy's greatest Spock moment came in the death scene from 1982's "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan" when he says goodbye to Kirk: "I have been, and always shall be, your friend."
That's an example to live long and prosper by. Just ask that big-eared brainy kid who loved a pointy-eared logician and grew up to head the biggest enterprise on the planet.

Poor network reliability, perceived or real, is a primary reason subscribers leave a network, also known in the industry as "churn". Key performance indicators (KPI) such as blocked or dropped calls and data sessions or low data throughput are monitored and are identified by network operators as the main reasons customers churn. Additionally, operators are having to overcome the multiple challenges of co-siting new LTE-A 4G technology with legacy 3G and 2G infrastructure, new base station types such as remote radio heads (RRH) using the optical CPRI interface for fronthaul, advanced MIMO transmission techniques, providing reliable in-building coverage using distributed antenna systems (DAS), increasing passive intermodulation (PIM) and interference levels and sometimes periodic mandatory regulatory testing, all while keeping installation, maintenance and optimization costs under control.
The cable and antenna system plays a crucial role of the overall performance of a Base Station system. Degradations and failures in the antenna system may cause poor voice quality or dropped calls. From a carrier standpoint, this could eventually result in loss of revenue.
While a problematic base station can be replaced, a cable and antenna system is not so easy to replace. It is the role of the field technician to troubleshoot the cable and antenna system and ensure that the overall health of the communication system is performing as expected. Field technicians today rely on portable cable and antenna analyzers to analyze, troubleshoot, characterize, and maintain the system.
The rapid spread of smartphones and tablets together with many new Cloud services in the last decade have led to explosive growth in mobile data traffic. Operators are supporting mobile data traffic growth by increasing the bandwidth of mobile communications networks. This has been an important driver for a complete change in mobile communications systems with the adoption of the Centralized-Radio Access Networks (C-RAN), sometimes called Cloud-Radio Access Networks. Another important driver for operators has been reducing network running costs.
The first mobile communications backhaul was based on TDM technology (SDH/SONET and PDH) but quickly migrated to Ethernet-based packet-switched networks due to simplicity and relatively low costs. However, the asynchronous nature of Ethernet is a challenge because mobile networks require frequency synchronization across the entire network. Although TDM technology has a built-in physical layer supporting frequency synchronization, Ethernet has replaced TDM in mobile backhaul by using Synchronous Ethernet technology, which applies synchronization to Ethernet-based networks.
Traditional cell sites consisted of a ground-based radio connected to tower-mounted antennas by a long run of coaxial cable which has high loss and is vulnerable to interference. This has negative impacts on maintenance costs as equipment ages and also on system performance.
To answer the need for more throughput at lower cost, wireless network providers have moved to using a remote radio head (RRH) where the radio equipment is connected to the baseband unit (BBU) by a fiber optic cable. This provides a new level of flexibility in how the cell site is deployed, including siting the RRH at the masthead (for low RF losses) or locating the BBU at a remote location (for improved operational efficiencies).
A flexible interface between the BBU (baseband unit) and RRH (remote radio head) is necessary to accommodate today's new architecture. Many high speed serial communication standards are available, but without modification, none offer the high throughput, low latency and features required to support these cell site architectures.
New interface standards have been developed to support these new cell site architectures. The two interfaces that lead this charge are the Open Base Station Architecture Initiative (OBSAI) and Common Public Radio Interface (CPRI). OBSAI is the more complex of the two to implement and CPRI technology is now used in the majority of new installations. CPRI pushes the complexity into the higher layers of the system so a connection between the BBU and the RRH can be established with minimal configuration. CPRI has become the more common standard, allowing manufacturers to tailor the interface to their own requirements. The high throughput potential of later CPRI releases enables providers to futureproof their rollouts.
When designing and building cellular infrastructure, one objective is to maximize the RF signal level seen throughout the coverage area. Assuming the noise level remains constant, higher signal levels mean faster data rates and fewer dropped calls, ultimately resulting in happier customers.
In many cases, the personnel building a cell site do not control every variable necessary to ensure strong signals. Some of the variables outside the installer's control include transmit power levels from the radio, cable type, antenna gain and antenna height. Important variables that installers do control are losses in the cable feed system due to reflections and absorption. As we all know, minimizing these losses will improve the quality of the system. But, there are points of diminishing return. Sometimes "better" may provide very
little practical benefit to customers. In times where operators are seeking sensible ways to reduce installation costs, knowing when to stop chasing that last decibel is important to understand.
The purpose of an in-building wireless (IBW) system is to provide enhanced network coverage and/or capacity when the existing macro network is not able to adequately service the demand. Coverage may be poor due to high penetration losses caused by the building structure or due to low emissivity glass installed to improve the thermal performance of the building. In dense urban environments, adjacent buildings may create an RF barrier that blocks coverage from nearby macro sites. Tall buildings typically have poor coverage on upper floors since macro site antennas, many floors below, are specifically designed to suppress energy radiating above the horizon. Capacity may be an issue in venues such as stadiums, coliseums and convention centers where many thousands of users may be trying to simultaneously access the network.
The wireless industry is constantly evolving, and so are the words and terms we use to describe its technology. Whether you're describing the difference between W-CDMA, CDMA and TD-SCDMA… explaining applications such as line sweeping, DTF measurements or vector signal analysis as they apply to GSM, HSPDA or WiMAX… or simply looking up a term that's new to you… Anritsu's Wireless Base Station Glossary is the place to start.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- The Veterans Affairs Department is in the process of holding bad employees accountable amid a scandal about long wait times for patients and other problems, VA Secretary Robert McDonald said Thursday, but he declined to say how many people were being fired and who they were.
McDonald visited with veterans and employees at the Memphis VA hospital on Thursday, a day after addressing the American Veterans national convention.
McDonald said employees who are being fired are allowed due process, but the agency is working as quickly as it can as it goes through the process under a new law that addresses the VA's firing practices.
"You've got to treat that person with respect," he told reporters at the hospital. "They have to be allowed a certain due process that's allowed them by law or by statute or by policy. And, so, we can't talk to you about names, we can't talk to you about individuals, even though that's what you would like. We can't do that because that would be disrespectful.
"On the other hand, we've got to deal with it as quickly as we can," he added. "We've got to deal with it deliberately and we've got to deal with it appropriately. I can tell you, we are going to hold people accountable, and we're going to do that as quickly as we possibly can."
When asked how many people have been fired, he said: "That's not relevant. I mean, what's relevant is what's happened here in Memphis."
A $16.3 billion VA overhaul law signed by President Barack Obama last week grants the VA secretary authority to immediately fire poor-performing senior executives, while providing employees with streamlined appeals rights. Fired employees would have seven days to appeal, with a decision by an administrative judge due in 21 days. The law was adopted after members of Congress from both parties complained that it has taken months to fire VA employees.
In late July, the VA said it wanted to fire two supervisors accused of manipulating health care data in Colorado and Wyoming. Four other employees face suspension, demotion or admonishment. The disclosures came before the new law was signed.
McDonald also said he met with veterans who like the care they have received at the Memphis VA and employees who are passionate about their jobs. But he also heard complaints from veterans who have been critical of the care they have received.
"I talked with several veterans who had bad things to say," McDonald said. "I have met with whistleblowers while I'm here. I've met with veterans who are unhappy with their care. Generally, the most unhappy people are those who haven't gotten access to care, and we're trying to get that fixed."
He said he's heard about a culture that's punished people for bringing problems to light and have cited acrimony between staff and managers.
"We've got to stop fighting amongst ourselves and start working together as a team," he said.
McDonald also cited changes made to the hospital's emergency room after last October's inspector general's report that said three patients died after receiving substandard care.
The report said one patient was given a medication despite a documented drug allergy and had a fatal reaction. Another patient was found unresponsive after receiving multiple sedating medications. A third had critically high blood pressure that was not aggressively monitored and experienced bleeding in the brain about five hours after going to the emergency room.
"Fortunately, we're not seeing that in every VA facility," he said.
The hospital has said the problems that led to the deaths have been fixed. McDonald said a new emergency department chief and a new nurse manager were on the job, and 14 additional nurses with emergency experience were hired. More room was being added in the emergency department as part of a $5 million renovation, he said.
Another $3.8 million from within the VA's budget is being made available to the Memphis VA to accelerate access to care. And, the Memphis VA has expanded hours and increased the use of overtime, he said.
The Memphis VA serves 67,000 veterans in four states. An audit released in June showed that while more than 97 percent of 48,998 appointments at the hospital were scheduled within 30 days, 1,697 veterans were made to wait more than 30 days for appointments.
Another 507 veterans had to wait 61 days to 90 days for an appointment, the audit showed. New patients waited an average of nearly 50 days to see a primary-care doctor.


text: The ball was flying all over Turner Field last night, what with the Giants and Braves combining for six home runs, including four in extra innings. The Giants eventually won in the 11th thanks to three-run homers by both Brandon Crawford and Gregor Blanco, but they initially took the lead in the 10th when Chipper's underhanded attempt at a fielder's choice nearly became a souvenir. In hindsight, he would have been better off just eating it.

With the Deep Silence 6 Rev. B HPTX tower, we present a slightly modified revision of the popular big tower from the next generation of silent PC cases.
The Nanoxia Deep Silence series has already won more than 150 awards from the international trade press. The innovative design and the exceptional quality certainly delight experts and enthusiasts alike.
Based on the suggestions of our fans and customers, our design team has developed meaningful optimizations in the context of product development, which are reflected in the present revision. A particular novelty is the newly developed 6 x 2.5 "mounting frame for space-saving installation of up to six HDD / SSD.
The gigantic tower not only offers enormous space, but also innovative technologies, like the "Active Air Chimney" for active improvement of the case ventilation.
Prominent features of our Deep Silence case series:
• Classic design - Made in Germany
• Particularly quiet thanks to its integrated sound dampening system and focused design
• Highly efficient, stealthy ventilation system
• Maximum functionality and adaptability
The Deep Silence 6 is in the Rev. B again equipped with two soundproof doors: Behind the upper cover the user will find four 5.25 inch bays, a 2-channel fan control (with sliders), as well as the reset-button. Behind the second door, two low-noise 140 mm fans are mounted. Magnets integrated in the doors ensure a fast closing and easy opening.
The I/O-panel can be found in the top cover of the case. As many as 4 x USB 3.0, 2 x USB 2.0, Mic, and Audio connectors are available. A practical sliding lid makes it possible to hide the connectors when they are not needed. The top cover also holds the unique "Active Air Chimney" for effective, active case ventilation. The Chimney is easily retractable. This ensures that the simple look of the case is maintained, without sacrificing useful features and options for ventilation.
You can mount HTPX, E-ATX, XL-ATX, ATX, Micro-ATX and Mini-ITX motherboards in the Deep Silence 6. Whether you are planning a particularly smooth-running high-end gaming system with extensive water cooling or are looking for an enclosure that can be used perfectly as a data storage server with multiple hard drives - the Deep Silence 6 Rev. B is perfect for you.
Almost noiseless
In the course of the development of our Deep Silence case series the focus has always been on two requirements: minimize noise and minimize system temperatures.
As with all the Deep Silence cases, specially designed, noise reducing insulation materials are used to minimize and absorb any noises. The materials used have been manufactured in accordance with the specifications of our designers and are meant to absorb both structure and airborne noise. The solid front doors use sound absorbing materials contribute significantly to the most effective noise reduction.
Hard disks and the PSU use anti-vibration mounting solutions. By using the highest quality materials, optimal noise insulation is ensured while at the same time providing a very stable case.
Also responsible for the quietness of the Deep Silence 6 Rev. B are the five pre-installed 140 mm "Deep Silence" fans. This fan-series was optimized for the best possible mix of silence and cooling capacity.
Intelligent ventilation system
The ventilation system of the Deep Silence 6 Rev. B is designed for the most demanding users and can be extended generous.
Behind the front cover, two 140 mm fans rotate at a maximum of 1,100 RPM. The fans are located in special swiveling brackets which allow for simple removal of the fans and easy access to the serial dust filters. Another fan with 1,100 RPM is located in the rear of the case.
Thanks to the integrated fan control for up to eight fans, an individual compromise between low system temperatures and the lowest possible noise level can be achieved, even with a full fan assembly.
The innovative Nanoxia Active Air Chimney makes it easy to adapt the case to your needs. It can be closed during normal operations, in order to preserve the clean look of the case line. Under extreme conditions the Air Chimney can, as easily as switching a button, be set to provide actively enhanced case ventilation. The two pre-installed fans under the cover will automatically start if the chimney is opened. Thus the warm air is dissipated quickly and effectively from the case. When the Air Chimney is closed, the fans will be deactivated again.
You can mount a total of three 120 or 140 mm fans under the top cover and operate them with the Active Air Chimney.
In order to optimize the cooling of the graphics card, two additional 120 or 140 mm fans can be mounted in the left side panel. At the bottom of the case, either one 140 mm or two 120 mm fans can be accommodated. All air intake openings of the case equipped with effective dust filters.
The special designed Mounting Bracket for two 120 or 140 mm fans, which is fitted to the hard disk cage, can be easily dismounted. With the bracket, the ventilation of the hard drives and the entire system can be increased significantly, if desired. It is suited for up to two 120/140 mm fans.
Watercooling Ready
The Deep Silence 6 Rev. B is ideally suited for the most demanding water cooling projects. The top cover offers special lateral attachment points which provide maximum compatibility, especially when using very thick radiators. Those can be used to install 120/140/240/280 and 360 mm radiators. Thanks to the immense space available you can operate even massive radiators in a push-pull mode with fans on both sides.
The mounting bracket behind the HDD-cage allows the internal assembly of a water cooling system (120/140 or 240/280 mm radiator) and up to four fans between HDD cage and motherboard - without colliding with the motherboard or power supply. Radiators may thus be cooled without case modifications in a push-pull set-up. In conjunction with the two pre-installed 140 mm Deep Silence fans behind the front up to six fans provide for a superior cooling performance of the water cooling system.
Four additional rubber hose guides for external water cooling solutions can be found on the rear side.
Versatile Features
The Nanoxia Deep Silence 6 in the Revision B offers again a variety of very convenient product features:
A special feature of the case is the mounts for the front fans. Behind the lower door, 2 dust filter equipped holding frames can be found, each receiving one of the 140 mm fan. A simple pressure on the holding frame (it works using the push-pin principle) releases the anchoring, the flap can be opened, and dust filter and fan can be removed and cleaned very easily. It's that simple!
The optical drives can be mounted without requiring tools. Two 5.25 inch to 3.5 inch adaptor are included to permit for example the installation of a card reader. If you want, you can use those to mount additional hard disk drives.
The massive tower is designed for a total of up to sixteen hard disk drives. By using the 5.25 inch to 3.5 inch adapters, you can even install a total of 18 data storage devices. The hard drives are installed in special mounting carriages, which are designed to accommodate both 2.5" HDD / SSD as well as 3.5" HDD. Screws with rubber suspension are used to hold the drives in place.
A special feature of the Deep Silence 6 Rev. B is the newly developed 2.5 inch mounting frame for up to six 2.5" HDD/SSD. For installation, the mounting frame will need three 3.5 inch bays. If you do not want to use this unique feature, sufficiently 3.5 inch mounting carriages are included to use all available slots.
The big tower also features a modular 3-bay HDD cage. The cage may be mounted at different positions on the case bottom. This ensures that for example very thick radiators can be installed without space problems.

Cranberry Phyllo Triangles
It's hard to eat just one of these crispy cranberry-filled triangles. It you prefer, make the chocolate version instead.—Taste of Home Test Kitchen, Greendale, Wisconsin
Total TimePrep: 30 min. Bake: 15 min.
Makes30 triangles
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh or frozen cranberries
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons raisins
- 2 tablespoons chopped pecans
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/4 teaspoon shredded orange peel
- 20 sheets phyllo dough (14 inches x 9 inches)
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- Confectioners' sugar
- In a saucepan, combine the cranberries, sugar, raisins, pecans, honey and orange peel; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Drain and discard any juice. Cool to room temperature.
- Lightly brush one sheet of phyllo with butter; place another sheet of phyllo on top and brush with butter. Keep remaining phyllo covered with plastic wrap and a damp towel to prevent drying. Cut the two layered sheets into three 14x3-in. strips. Place a teaspoon of cranberry filling in lower corner on each strip. Fold dough over filling, forming a triangle. Fold triangle up, then fold triangle over, forming another triangle. Continue folding, like a flag, until you come to the end of the strip. Brush end of dough with butter and press onto triangle to seal. Turn triangle and brush top with melted butter. Repeat with remaining strips of dough and remaining sheets of phyllo.
- Place triangles on a greased baking sheet. Bake at 375° for 15-17 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar.
For Chocolate Phyllo Triangles: In a microwave-safe or heavy saucepan, melt 8 oz. of chopped semisweet chocolate. Stir in 3/4 cup toasted pecans. Place a heavy teaspoonful on phyllo strip. Fold up as directed above.

The bike seat was easy to install once I figured out the directions. Since I only have a cruiser at the moment (please note that it is not recommended for attachment), I tweaked it a bit and got it installed. The Britax bike seat features a Click & Cruise Bracket for ease of attachment and removal of the child bike seat. Once you install the bracket onto your bike, you literally just click the seat in! We will definitely have to get another one for Hubs' bike (when he gets one) so the seat can be transferred easily between the two.
The seat itself looks pretty comfortable for Kenzie to sit in because of the machine washable padding. The padding is also reversible from red to gray. There is a tall backrest with deep sides. The 5-point harness with shoulder pads keeps her safe and is easy to wear by pulling over her head and locking into place. The 2-position recline will be perfect for Mason so he can chill and enjoy the ride. There is built-in suspension so your child is not experiencing extra bumps when biking. This is the neatest feature because comfort is key in keeping tots happy.
Kenzie really enjoys riding in her bike seat (more so than riding her own bike) because she gets to feel the breeze and the trip to the park is indeed quicker than on her own.
