All Fired Up (minigame)Discuss68
this wiki
- For the quest with the same name, see All Fired Up.
All Fired Up (sometimes simply called the Beacon Network) is a minigame released on 26 August 2008. The goal is to light a series of beacons, created by King Roald III to create a warning in an event of an emergency. In total, there are 14 beacons in the beacon network with each beacon requiring 20 un-noted logs of your choice to light. To fully complete this minigame, players must have a Firemaking level of 92, along with several other requirements and completion of certain quests to be able to access all 14 beacons. The minimum level required in order to start using the beacon network as an alternative method for training the Firemaking skill is level 43, in order to access the first two beacons. It is essentially an evolved version of the unreleased Wilderness Tag.
See All Fired Up (minigame)/Walkthrough for a brief and simple walkthrough for the minigame or All Fired Up (minigame)/Walkthrough (thorough) for a comprehensive step-by-step method suitable for those going for the Inferno Adze as a one off.

Starting offEdit
To start the game you must have completed the All Fired Up quest. One of the rewards from this quest is access to the beacon network.
The goal of the game is to keep as many beacons lit at the same time as possible. There are a total of 14 beacons in the beacon network which are indicated by the Fired Up Beacon icon () on the World map and minimap. Players gain rewards based on how many beacons kept lit at the same time, broken into three groups: 6 beacons, 10 beacons, and all 14 beacons. To get the rewards, players have to speak with King Roald III in Varrock. Note that players may choose to gain all three rewards in one trip.
Before making an attempt, all the beacons should be filled with logs (the logs will NOT disappear), along with doing the needed repairs, and aiding the keepers beforehand. See "Network information" for Beacon and Keeper requirements.
Lighting the BeaconsEdit
To light a beacon, the brazier must first be filled with 20 (unnoted) logs of the same type. Any type may be used, but the better the logs used, the longer the beacon will stay alight. Use a tinderbox on the beacon to light it. Lighting the beacons give a fixed amount of experience, regardless of the type of logs used. It may be useful for players to use maple or willow logs for most beacons if they want to save expenses or effort to gather the required logs, especially if they are using the network to gain experience rather than trying to earn the rewards.
Helpful note: Players do not have to light the beacons immediately after filling with logs, so the beacons can all be loaded with logs first, and then the player can run from beacon to beacon to light them quickly. A player may load and light the beacons in any order.
Once a beacon is lit the player may provide the Beacon keepers with an additional 5 logs to watch the beacon on the player's behalf. In addition, a player may add the 5 logs to the weakened beacon themselves to restore a beacon to its full strength. Providing additional logs to the beacon keepers does not give any additional experience, but it does add some additional time that the beacons will remain lit. Meeting the requirements to interact with the beacon keeper also allows players to check on the status of the network at that particular station.
Burn timeEdit
Below is an estimated time for how long each type of log burns:
Log Burn time Regular logs ~13 minutes Oak logs ~13.5 minutes Willow logs ~14.5 minutes Maple logs ~15.75 minutes Yew logs ~16.5 minutes Magic logs ~18 minutes
Note: It is possible to light all 14 beacons using only regular logs; the entire network may be lit in as little as 7–9 minutes.
Useful tipsEdit
The Inferno Adze may be obtained by lighting the beacons in any order (as long as all 14 are lit before any beacons extinguish). Players may therefore find it advisable to light the higher level beacons first, as these are higher risk, and should players die in the wilderness/ outside the GWD while lighting the higher level beacons, less progress would be be lost. Furthermore, should players be relying on spicy stew to complete the minigame, starting at the beacon in the northern wilderness would allow time to get the required boost before starting the burn timer on any of the beacons.
Friends may also help in this minigame to save repeated trips to the bank. A player provides an inventory of logs to some friends and asks them to wait at the beacons. Once the player arrives at a beacon, the friend trades the logs with the player for the next beacon.
Another piece of advice is to store all of your logs at the beacons that you plan on going to and fix the ladders, then once all are loaded with your 20 logs of the same kind, find a starting point, and light all the beacons. This saves a LOT of time and frustration.
Players may save money by using cheap logs on the beacons that will be lit last. The money saved can be used to buy longer-lasting logs on the beacons that will be lit first. The difference in time between how long a magic log will remain burning compared to a willow log is relatively minor, but obtaining these logs is either much more expensive (if you are buying logs), or more time-consuming (if you are cutting them).
Using the salt-water spring after completing As a First Resort... will give you unlimited run energy, increasing your chance of success/save you money from buying energy restoring items.
Players who don't have Trollheim teleport are able to use the games necklace teleport to Troll Invasion and run along to the beacons near the Trollheim hill. This takes a long time and may only leave players a few seconds left before the first lit beacon burns out in which to light the last beacon. This is strongly advised against and can only be done with magic logs (as they burn for long enough to allow a player to do this). However you have plenty of time to do this if they are the first ones you light. Lower levelled players may find this helpful as a way to get to the beacons.

Network Status Edit
To keep track of the status of the beacon network, players can right-click on any of the beacon attendants and use the "Information" option to display a status update similar to the one listed above. Information is available for any neighbouring beacons on the network, or for one station beyond the last beacon that is lit and currently in operation.
Giving a macaw pouch to a keeper will allow that one keeper to get information about every single beacon in the network, instead of only the two neighbouring them.
The icons on the map have the following meanings:
Beacon Firemaking level Firemaking experience for lighting* Cumulative experience for lighting
the beacon network to this point
(including bonus lighting exp
and glove and ring bonus)

- You must achieve each reward seperately.
- Wearing a Ring of fire and/or Flame gloves grants additional Firemaking experience.
- 608.4 experience is gained for lighting one beacon at any location.
- 39,599.9 experience is rewarded for having all 14 beacons lit without either gloves or the ring. The experience is 41,579.5 for completing the beacon network with the fire ring and gloves being worn.
- Even though rewards will only be granted for lighting a continuous (unbroken) series of beacons, EXPERIENCE bonus will be granted for beacons regardless of whether they are in sight of each other.
- If any beacons are still on fire when logs are added to the network, even if the beacon station where you are is extinguished after you had previously lit up the network, no additional bonus will be granted and lighting that beacon will only grant experience for that station alone. This includes adding logs to the network and then shortly afterwards the remaining beacons also become extinguished. To maximize experience earned while lighting the network for training purposes, light all beacons within a short period of time, then wait until all beacons go out before re-loading the network with new logs.
- In terms of experience gained per log, this is assuming that players only put 20 logs in each station and then complete the entire network up to that point, including all bonuses. While not necessarily a faster method of earning experience, it may be possible to earn more experience per log if using willow or oak logs for the beacon network and be able to reduce the costs both in terms of time and money to gather these logs and use them for training purposes. As a firemaking training method, using maple logs is only effective if you have the firemaking level to nearly complete the entire network, where you would otherwise gain more experience simply burning the maple logs in a conventional manner. Yew and Magic logs should only be used if a player is having difficulty claiming a reward.
- You can't use logs colored with gnomish firelighters to light beacons.
- When you successfully light 6, 10, or 14 Beacons you will get a message stating you can now pick up your Ring of fire, Flame gloves, or Inferno Adze from King Roald III.
- King Roald III will also reward players with items according to the number of beacons simultaneously lit.
- If you lose or destroy any of these items, you will have to earn it by playing the minigame again.
Image Item Beacons lit Level Attributes Ring of fire 6 beacons 62 2% more experience per log. Flame gloves 10 beacons 79 2% more experience per log. When worn at the same time as the Ring of fire, this grants a 5% bonus instead of the expected 4%. Inferno Adze All 14 beacons 92 See the Inferno Adze article.
Note: Level indicated is minimum Firemaking level required; additional requirements may be needed (see above, or beacon network).
Experience chartEdit
To show the benefits from the rewards of the minigame while doing normal Firemaking.
- XP is the experience gained from burning the log normally.
- XP+ is the experience gained burning the log with the Ring of fire or Flame gloves (2% bonus).
- XP++ is the experience gained with both the Ring of fire and the Flame gloves (i.e. 2% + 2% + 1% = 5% bonus).
Note: Using Summoning familiars with Ring of fire and Flame gloves will not stack the Firemaking bonus gained. For example, using Pyrelord with Ring of fire and Flame gloves will not add 15% Firemaking bonus, instead it will add 5% + 10 exp. However, a (master) Penance horn will grant you 200% experience bonus over the total experience gained (including the bonus from the flame gloves and/or ring)

PEORIA, Ill. -- A local science teacher said the subject is best understood by conducting experiments, but old and faulty equipment makes it challenging.
Carlie Kaufmann teaches Junior High Science and Math at Concordia Lutheran School. She believes hands-on teaching is best.
"She always works so hard to make it fun for us, we do a lot of different things and experiments," said 8th grader, Taylor Rudin.
But her limited science budget makes buying the expensive supplies difficult.
"We look at different muscle tissues, all types of different cells, last week we were looking at our hair to see smooth and course hair," said Science Teacher Carlie Kaufmann.
With the $1,000 grant from HOI-19 and CEFCU, Kaufmann said what she needs most is new microscopes.
Many times students have to call her over during lessons to tell her they can't get the old microscopes to focus. The grant should allow her to buy about eight new ones, that turn on and focus.
"This is just going to bring so much life to the classroom, and for the kids to really understand instead of looking at pictures in books," said Kaufman..
Kaufmann hopes to instill a love of learning at a young age, and believes this will help.
"I'm really hoping that by planting the seed in the junior high years that they're going to really get excited about Science and not be intimidated by it when they go to high school and college," said Kaufmann.

Hospitals around northwest Ohio are reporting more cases of the flu. The virus is already being blamed for at least two deaths in Lucas County.
Leaders at the Toledo-Lucas County Health Department say they have seen nearly 50 cases so far with two flu-related deaths. However, they say that number is expected to rise as more people check in to local hospitals with severe symptoms.
Symptoms you shouldn't ignore:
-body aches
-sore throat
-nasal congestion
How do you know when your symptoms need medical attention? Doctors say there are a few things to watch for...
"You probably want to see a doctor if the temperature is over 103/104 and you can't get it controlled after trying some Ibuprofen," said Dr. Daniel Neumeyer with Mercy's Emergency Center in Perrysburg.
Neumeyer says temperatures and severe body aches are two big warning signs for when your case of the flu could turn into something more serious.
"If you're feeling so run down that you just can't function, you definitely want to come and see the doctor," suggested Neumeyer.
He says those who think they may have the flu should take some time off work or school to rest and prevent spreading germs.
"It's unfortunately very contagious," said Neumeyer.
As always, Neumeyer says prevention is key.
How you can avoid the flu:
-flu shot
-proper hygiene
-avoid touching your eyes, mouth and nose
-healthy diet and exercise
-stay hydrated
-disinfect surfaces Lucas County residents say they're already following these tips.
"You take all the precautions you can and mainly get the shot," said Linda Dunbar.
"From my understanding, if you take the flu shot and take care of yourself and wash your hands and sleep, you shouldn't have a problem," said Michael Burriola.
While many local pharmacies are completely sold out of flu shots, there are still a few places you can go. Pharmacists at Walgreens say they still have shots available, but they're going fast. Walmart reps also say they have shots in stock and are planning clinics later in the week.
Shots are given on a first come, first served basis as supplies last. People can also call to set up an appointment for their flu shot.
Walmart stores holding extra flu shot clinics:
-Jan. 16:
Fremont store: 11-4
Glendale Avenue store: 9-4
Central Avenue store: 9-4
-Jan. 17:
Holland store: 10-3
After a drastic increase in flu reports, the Toledo-Lucas County Health Department will be holding two special walk-in flu clinics at its location on North Erie Street:
-Jan. 15: 4-6
-Jan. 18: 9–1
This is late in the season to be getting your flu shot, but some still say it's worth it.
"It's definitely not too late. If you have the opportunity come in and get it now. The sooner the better. It does take two weeks for you to get the full immunity, but the sooner you get it the better off you are," said Neumeyer.
Flu shots usually cost about $30.
We want to help you fight the flu this season. Find more information about symptoms, treatment and clinics in our Flu Tracker section.

A couple of days after I talked with Anna Hamilton, I met up with a grower alongside a frontage road in southern Humboldt. I'll call him Robert Grant. He wore logging boots, cargo pants and a T-shirt, and had the wiry build of someone who spends a lot of time on the move outside. We followed a labyrinthine route along dusty roads to a piece of land perched halfway up a pretty draw full of oaks, golden meadows and firs, with sweeping views of the surrounding hills.
Grant originally came from Southern California to chase the surf on the coast nearby. He slowly worked his way into the marijuana scene, careful not to disturb the local detente. It has served him well. At this particular spot, 60 plants were perched in the sun, standing in long raised beds and a handful of blue plastic kiddie pools. The leafy plants were as tall as apple trees; together, they were probably worth about half a million dollars, wholesale.
Among them were strains with names like Blueberry, Amazing Haze and Armageddon. But Grant was most excited about a new twist on one called Super Silver Haze.
"We've been working on it for nine years," he said, reaching to pull down a bud that glistened with silvery resin. I took a deep whiff, and my head filled with the plant's breathy, arresting allure.
Grant saw my eyes widen.
"Yeah," he laughed. "That's ... that just rocks."
Breeding marijuana is its own kind of magic. Grant talked about the elusive quest to balance a body high with a head high; to blend the perfect combination of looks, aroma, flavor and THC; and to encourage resistance to mold, an incessant problem with the coastal fog. Breeding and growing styles can border on the occult. One breeder meticulously tracks each plant's parentage in his quest to produce super-potent "stupid dope." Others drive nails through the plants' stalks, on the theory that torture will produce more THC. And one group of ritualists grows weed that's beyond hand-crafted, observing elaborate precautions to avoid touching the buds during harvest -- the better to preserve their sanctity.
Grant's pot patch reflected the evolving state of the Northern California marijuana business. His cannabis was contracted to a medical marijuana dispensary in Sacramento. In the middle of the garden, angled toward the sky, was a white board painted with a red cross. An attached bundle of paperwork noted his compliance with the state's medical marijuana law.
"That's for the helicopters," Grant said. He had little fear of a raid. The helicopters appeared once earlier in the summer and then stayed away. And now it seemed the entire industry was poised to come further out of the shadows.
In 2009, with the California budget going up in smoke, then-Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger -- no dummy about his constituents' yen for dope -- began to consider legalizing recreational use of marijuana, and then taxing it, as a way to stem the state's looming fiscal crisis. The state tax office estimated that a $50-an-ounce levy on marijuana could, when coupled with increased sales-tax revenue, generate $1.4 billion for state coffers. The legalize-and-tax mantra was subsequently taken up by Oakland entrepreneur Richard Lee, who created Oaksterdam, a sort of vo-tech school for aspiring pot growers, and almost single-handedly turned the city into a medical-marijuana mecca.
When I met with Grant, Californians were within weeks of voting on Proposition 19. Many growers opposed legalization because it was sure to drop prices, although they hesitated to say so on the record. Others, like Grant, felt differently.
Despite the spreading legalization of medical marijuana, the profit margin has stayed fat: For a grower like Grant, it typically costs $400 to $500 to grow a pound of marijuana that will go for $2,000 wholesale. And with full legalization, he explained, "you're talking about a lot more consumption." Even if prices were to fall to $1,000 per pound, he said, "I'll take that. Absolutely."
From Grant's perspective, full legalization seemed, at some point, inevitable. Several fellow growers had recently formed the Humboldt Growers Association, in essence a lobbying group to help growers shape -- and get out in front of -- the regulations that legalization was sure to bring. The Growers Association had begun drafting its own proposed regulations to submit to the Humboldt County board of supervisors, which would govern the manner and extent to which marijuana was grown, and allow the county to collect taxes and fees.
"Everything's tracked. Everything has a permit number that tracks it right down to the farmer," Grant said. "It's just like lettuce, just like tomatoes, just like strawberries."
After years of keeping their heads down on the outlaw fringe -- where politics meant little more than supporting the local road-maintenance association -- growers were taking a big step into a new and complicated realm.
"There's a lot of uncertainty in the air," Grant said. "But a lot of entrepreneurs are really excited about the potential."

Eagles Blank Sharks, 3-0 in Exhibition
Fort Myers, Fla. – The Florida Gulf Coast University Womens Soccer team defeated Nova Southeastern in a 3-0 shutout on Saturday afternoon at the FGCU Soccer Complex.
Junior Amber McCall (Fort Myers, Fla.) sparked the Eagles offense with a goal just six minutes into the second half. Michelle Kuhnen (Eau Claire, Wis) sent a pass from midfield to McCall who was able to score from the top of box to put the Eagles ahead 1-0.
The second Eagle goal came in the 57th minute by sophomore Lindsay Haw (Palm City, Fla). Amber McCall answered 11 minutes later with her second goal of the day, Michelle Kuhnen sent a cross from the left wing that found McCall for a header to give the Eagles a 3-0 lead.
"We had some good looks early but we were a little impatient," said head coach Jim Blankenship. "Once we scored in the second half we loosened up and played well,"
The Eagles will begin regular season play on Friday August 22nd at 7:00 pm as they host the Owls from Florida Atlantic at FGCU Soccer Complex.

I find that the "camera calibration" settings for my 5diii are best on neutral when shooting scenes with skin tones in them. You will have to add some contrast back into the scene after changing this but it's worth it.
I find that scenes with skin tones are the most difficult to adjust. Here is my work flow for wedding photos:
1) Get the skin exposure right with the exposure slider
2) Get the color temp, this is often the hardest one of the bunch!
3) Adjust the white and black sliders while holding down the cntrl key so that whites are pure white and blacks are pure black. This kind of stretches the DR a bit and adds contrast.
4) I will usually bump the vibrance up to 40-50 and the saturation to 10-15 to start. Doing this screws up the skin tones so I will go into the color saturation panel and use the dropper to click on the skin and draw down the saturation of just the skin tones. (I have a couple of presets for this and will tweak the presets for each wedding couple) This process adds the "pop" to the colors.
5) Add a little bit of contrast. You can do this with the slider but I find that adjusting the curve to an S curve is more natural. (just use the pre-programed curves) The amount of contrast is going to depend on the lighting and on your lens.
6) Tweak the white and black sliders again to get the final effect i'm looking for.
7) Tweak the noise reduction with the picture at 100%
Obviously I jump around these steps and use a little different settings based on lighting but for a "standard" picture this is basically it. Some might say that colors (particularly reds) become too saturated using these settings so you have to adjust for the scene but most people today are looking for the photos that "pop" rather than a very natural look.
FYI, I also use a 50d for weddings and the settings are totally different for it. The tones are rendered very differently between the two cameras. Most of the photos I take with the 50d end up as black and whites.
I used to hate Adobe colours but they have come a long way in the last few years especially (as mentioned) adding camera profiles. When I compare DPP set to faithful and LR to faithful on my screen I find they are pretty close. Adobe is still a little stronger on the yellow but much improved.
For skin tones I use a simple preset. I first make sure I'm on faithful adjust exposure (if needed) and my preset is
Clarity - 10
Vibrance +10
Saturation - 10
I then adjust black do get back that contrast/punch lost in my preset and make slight adjustments on the basic panel as required. Now you do lose a little sharpness but it really smooths out the skin tones and hides minor defects. Depending on how much editing you have to do you can do a little selective sharpening around the eyes, etc but for mass edits it is impractical unless you want to spend all that time. I will do it if really necessary but I find the output sharpening using LR does a pretty good job at the end.
I have seen some work amazing work by people. Not sure what PP software they use but they get the skin tones so natural and creamy looking. I'll try to find a link if can. I'm still trying to figure that one out.
I am interested in step 4 of your process. I might play with that after my process to add a little more punch to my images if I can get the skin tones back to where they were.
Thanks for the info!

We have recently implemented Closed-Incident customer surveys, and are using one of the questions as our overall CSAT Rating.
Now we also want to measure ourselves against the industry.
Where can I obtain industry average CSAT ratings for the technology industry?
Rob Sawyer
Views: 366
Hi Haim,
I want to use it as an internal benchmark to know how we are tracking against the industry average. We know what our CSAT is - however, it is only useful if compared against a benchmark.
Rob - suppose you know where you stand against the industry average, how will that change the way you operate? Will you stop improving your service once you surpass that number and be content with being, well, average? Will comparison against the benchmark tell you where you succeed and where your failures are?
An external benchmark does not translate into actionable insight, since when you compare yourself to it there are only three possible outcomes, all of which lead to the same action:
- lower than the benchmark, and therefore need to improve
- equal to it and therefore need to become better to create differentiation
- higher and therefore need to preserve your position
The way I always operated and advised my clients was that the only benchmark that matters is the organization's past performance, and the goal is to continuously analyze it and improve on it by reinforcing strengths and correcting weaknesses, which a benchmark will never reveal.
A much better course is to talk to selected customers so they can help you understand trends in your market segment, what the competition is doing that they like or dislike, and more importantly, what you are doing that they like or dislike. You can then combine this knowledge with the results from your surveys to build a plan that will help your organization improve continuously.

The Baltimore Orioles non-tendered Mark Reynolds Friday night, according to Roch Kubatko. The move makes Reynolds a free agent. Reynolds made $7.5 million last season with the Orioles and hit .221/.335/.429 with just 22 home runs -- his lowest total since 2007. Rather than tender him a contract and give him a raise, the Orioles decided to cut him loose. They could still sign him back as a free agent.
Reynolds has been a polarizing figure over the length of his career, striking out at historic levels. He set the single-season record for strikeouts in 2009 with 223. But the strikeouts are blended with power and patience, as he has hit 181 career home runs and walked at nearly a 12% rate.
Reynolds was understandably nonplussed at the news:
Reynolds is now a free agent: "It is what it is and move on. I'm excited to get out there and see what's out there for me."— Brittany Ghiroli (@Britt_Ghiroli) December 1, 2012
Reynolds could be an attractive target for a number of teams looking for a first baseman or designated hitter. The Tampa Bay Rays need both. The Boston Red Sox are also looking for some offensive firepower. Of course, the Orioles could still make a bid to retain his services, though likely at a lower price.

It's upsetting news to many families.
Two schools are on the line to be cut in the Moline School District - Garfield and Ericsson Elementaries.
Many parents received the news today.
Of the 180 students that go to Ericsson, only about 6 of them speak English as a primary language.
With no busing in Moline, many parents pick up their kids from school.
And today finding out that the school that has been a beacon for Hispanic heavy Florciente neighborhood, may be closing it's doors.
The Moline School Board will make it's final vote on May 13th - but not before the public gets it's voice heard.
Three open meeting are scheduled so people can speak their minds and give their opinions.
But district leaders don't expect people to accept the closings easily.
"I'm hopeful that once the shock is done that it will be positive. I know it will be a good thing," says Ericsson Principal Juanita Terrenz.
But parents aren't happy.
"I transferred my daughter here for Lincoln Earving because of the Hispanic, the bi-lingual surrounding, "says Jamie Vincent, mother of a current Ericsson student. "I want my daughter to know. I love it. It's better to know for better jobs and to make more money."
The district says the closings will provide better learning experiences for every student.
With less schools to spread around to - more resources will be available to kids everyday like nurses and school counselors that are part time at a lot of schools in the district.
The first public meeting is set for Wednesday the 23rd and 6 PM.

Ronald Johnson
Professor of Instrumental Conducting
Conductor of Wind Symphony
Ed.D. - University of Illinois
Office: 84 Gallagher Bluedorn Performing Arts Center
Phone: (319) 273-6058
Email: email@example.com
Ronald Johnson is conductor of the Wind Symphony and the Chamber Wind Players at the University of Northern Iowa, and holds the academic rank of Professor of Music. He received his formal education from Texas Tech University; California State University, Northridge, and the University of Illinois. His conducting teachers include David Whitwell, Harry Begian, and Mircea Cristescu (Romania). For the 2004-2005 academic year, he was the recipient of a Fulbright Senior Lecturer's Award from the US Department of State, and was a Visiting Professor of Conducting at the University of Pécs in Hungary.
From 1972 until 1979, Johnson served as Director of Bands at Modesto Junior College in California where he developed one of the most distinguished two-year college band programs in the United States. Since arriving at the University of Northern Iowa, he has developed the Wind Symphony there into what is recognized as one of the premiere ensembles in the Midwest. In addition to his conducting duties at Northern Iowa, Johnson also serves Director of the Northern Festival of Bands, an annual event for some 250 public school conductors and student musicians. A new initiative, the Northern Iowa Band Invitational, is slated for its inaugural presentation in March of 2013. And, with the intention of providing a forum for the continuing musical education of wind conductors, Johnson has forged a relationship with the band conductors at Iowa State University, Drake University, and the University of Iowa to create the Iowa Band Conductors Forum. Its initial offering is scheduled for January of 2014.
Johnson has held national leadership roles in the College Band Directors National Association and has appeared as conductor or clinician in many parts of the United States. He has appeared as guest conductor in Switzerland, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Sweden, China, Slovenia, Germany, Hong Kong, and Israel. He has presented masterclasses, lectures, and seminars at music conservatories, festivals, and conferences in Switzerland, Italy, Germany, Hungary, and Israel, and has served as a member of the jury for international music festivals in Spain, Hungary, and Switzerland.
In 1993, 1996, and again in 2000, the Northern Iowa Wind Symphony traveled to Hungary for a series of concerts sponsored by the Hungarian Customs Administration (1993) and the Hungarian Wind Music Association (1996). Their performance in the Franz Liszt Academy of Music marked the first appearance ever by an American wind ensemble in that prestigious concert hall, and their live concert for Hungarian National Radio (1993) was heard by an estimated three million people! In 2004, the ensemble took its first visit to the northern part of Italy for a series of 5 concerts. In March of 2012, the Wind Symphony returned to Italy, performing 6 concerts in 7 days, and offered a 2-day conducting seminar for Italian conductors. The Wind Symphony has released four compact disc recordings: Memories (1994), Genesis (1995), Requiem (recorded in the Liszt Academy, 1996), and The Best of All Possible Worlds (2004).

Getting Further with Spring RCP
Adding Functionality to the Table
Let's now add a popup item to our table. Whenever the user right-clicks in the table, the popup item should appear. The starting point is to override "AbstractView.registerLocalCommandExecutors()", similar to how we did it in the section Adding Context Sensitivity, in "Getting Started with Spring RCP". Here we specify that we want to use our PropertiesExecutor to handle the Properties command. That executor returns a simple JOptionPane as a placeholder for code that we will add later.
Then we use the Spring RCP "CommandGroup" class and the Spring RCP "ValueModel" class to display the popup item within the table. One or more commands can be gathered up together into a "CommandGroup", which has several useful utility methods, such as "setPopupCommandGroup", for creating popups. A "ValueModel", on the other hand, is useful for ensuring that a command is only active when something is selected. We create a new "ListSingleSelectionGuard", which selects a list selection model that is held by the ValueModel. Then the related commands (which are the guarded objects) are either enabled or disabled. You will find that, if you don't set a ValueModel, the command will always be disabled.
It is this interaction, i.e., the fact that changes in the GUI are reflected in ValueModels (and the fact that the values of the ValueModels are committed back to the related form objects, once the values in the ValueModel change), that is called "data binding", in the context of Spring RCP.
So, replace the content of your current CustomerView with the following:
package simple;
import domain.CustomerDataStore;
import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import javax.swing.JComponent;
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.JScrollPane;
import org.springframework.binding.value.ValueModel;
import org.springframework.richclient.application.PageComponentContext;
import org.springframework.richclient.application.support.AbstractView;
import org.springframework.richclient.command.ActionCommand;
import org.springframework.richclient.command.CommandGroup;
import org.springframework.richclient.command.GuardedActionCommandExecutor;
import org.springframework.richclient.command.support.AbstractActionCommandExecutor;
import org.springframework.richclient.command.support.GlobalCommandIds;
import org.springframework.richclient.list.ListSelectionValueModelAdapter;
import org.springframework.richclient.list.ListSingleSelectionGuard;
public class CustomerView extends AbstractView {
private CustomerTable customerTable;
private CustomerDataStore customerDataStore;
private GuardedActionCommandExecutor propertiesExecutor = new PropertiesExecutor();
protected CustomerDataStore getCustomerDataStore() {
return customerDataStore;
public void setCustomerDataStore(CustomerDataStore customerDataStore) {
this.customerDataStore = customerDataStore;
protected void registerLocalCommandExecutors(PageComponentContext context) {
context.register(GlobalCommandIds.PROPERTIES, propertiesExecutor);
protected JComponent createControl() {
customerTable = new customerTableFactory().createCustomerTable();
JPanel view = new JPanel(new BorderLayout());
JScrollPane sp = getComponentFactory().createScrollPane(customerTable.getControl());
view.add(sp, BorderLayout.CENTER);
return view;
private class customerTableFactory {
public CustomerTable createCustomerTable() {
CustomerTable customerTable = new CustomerTable(customerDataStore);
CommandGroup popup = new CommandGroup();
popup.add((ActionCommand) getWindowCommandManager().getCommand(GlobalCommandIds.PROPERTIES, ActionCommand.class));
ValueModel selectionHolder = new ListSelectionValueModelAdapter(customerTable.getSelectionModel());
new ListSingleSelectionGuard(selectionHolder, propertiesExecutor);
return customerTable;
private class PropertiesExecutor extends AbstractActionCommandExecutor {
public void execute() {
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Placeholder for showing TitledPageApplicationDialog...");
Now when you right-click in the table, you should see your new popup item:
When you select the item, a JOptionPane appears, as a placeholder for the code you will add in the next section.
And now you might be wondering how to set a double-click event, so that the PropertiesExecutor will be invoked when the user double-clicks on the table. Here it is, simply add this to the createCustomerTable() method, somewhere between lines 56 and 63 above:
Then run the application again and double-click in the table and you will have the same result as when you right-clicked the table and then invoked the popup item.

Great article and introduction to Spring RCP. I just wanted to comment that while version 1.0 has only recently been released the code has been useful for a lot longer. Personally, I have a couple of internal applications at work based on the framework, one of which is about three years old.
As an example of a full application, albeit quite simple, people might be interested in Bio Browser, a program to search and browse instances of a domain model from the National Cancer Institute exposed via their web services. The project page, with a web start launch is http://www.assembla.com/wiki/show/biobrowser. There is a child page on the wiki, instructions, which gives basic instructions and screenshots.

Not a problem, hope you find it useful. The 'instructions' page on the wiki has an example of running a query and then browsing through the results, including viewing pathway diagrams.
Short version, choose Gene from the search menu and enter say, EPO, in the 'Gene Symbol' field. That'll produce a navigable tree in the tree view. Double clicking on entities with a green arrow icon will then fetch those back. Right click on a pathway entity will bring up a context sensitive menu allow diagram to be displayed.
Hope that's enough to get you going

I'm new to Spring RCP and I'm trying some demo projects to know more about it. But I want to know that how to build a single executable JAR file for the Spring RCP project. I have tried to execute the test JAR file that is been created in the dist folder of the Net Beans RCP project but it didn't run properly it only shows me the splash screen and then the program ends. Please help me out in this matter.
One more thing I want to know is can we integrate a Spring RCP developed in Net Beans with an applet. Because I need to develop one application in RCP but that needs to be run as a client side applet. Or you can show me some other way.
I regularly refers your tutorial on Spring RCP for NetBeans. And it helps me a lot.
Thanks in advance.

LAS VEGAS (AP) - Authorities activated Nevada's Amber Alert network to find a father accused of abducting his 5-month-old daughter in Yuma, Ariz., and fleeing to southern Nevada.
Yuma police Detective Tammy Kallinger tells The Associated Press that cellphone activity on Wednesday showed 47-year-old Jeffrey Brian Green was somewhere in or around downtown Las Vegas.
According to Sgt. Leanne Worthen, Jeffrey took Aleeha Leilani Green from her mother after an argument about custody issues. Jeffrey doesn't have custodial rights and he has made suicidal comments to family members.
The Amber Alert about 2 p.m. said Green may be armed and driving a lime green 1997 Dodge pickup truck with flame detailing on the front and Arizona license plates.
Green is described as 5-foot-8 and 160 pounds with a mustache, black T-shirt, khaki shorts and khaki boots.
The child, Aleeha Leilani Green, has blonde hair and blue eyes.
She was last seen Wednesday wearing a pink and white "onesie" outfit.
UPDATE: On Wednesday, September 18th, 2013 at about 2:30 pm the Utah Highway Patrol stopped Jeff Green, and he was taken into custody without incident. Aleeha Green was found in the vehicle with him, unharmed. The stop happened at approximately four miles north of the Arizona/Utah state line on Interstate 15.

Update 1-9-14: Anthony Molina has been sentenced to six years prison. In October, he pleaded guilty to sexual misconduct and aggravated criminal sexual abuse under an Alford plea, which means he does not admit guilt. The other charges were dropped.
Original 5-31-13:
34-year old Anthony Molina was in court Thursday, facing seven felony charges including predatory sexual assault of a child and aggravated criminal sexual abuse. He pled not guilty to every single one.
Molina is accused of sexually assaulting a 9-year-old girl. He was arrested last week after the accusations came to light.
Molina is a well-known baseball player and coached a 14-year old youth baseball team in the QCA community. He played for University Of Evansville, but infamously took a baseball to the face in 1999, ending his career.
Since his arrest, he's been suspended from the team he coached. Now attorneys for Molina and the state are preparing for trial.
"It was a plea of not guilty to all seven counts, and we requested a jury trial so we're going to take this all the way through a jury trial so the reason we do that is so he can have a trial by his peers and make the state prove their case beyond a reasonable doubt," Molina's Attorney Steve Hanna says.
Molina has previous domestic battery charges and an order of protection; the charges were dropped in both cases.
A rep for the league Molina's team plays in says teams are not required to conduct background checks, but some do so on a team-by-team basis; Molina's team did not.
"I think a lot of it's taken for granted," Lt. John Hitchcock with Moline Police says, "There's really no statute requiring private organizations to do background checks."
When it comes to checking into someone's background, the law doesn't cover much. School districts, daycares, and healthcare providers are all required to get background checks done, but with everyone else, it's up to them.
"Little league organizations, soccer leagues, youth leagues are not required," Hitchcock says, "It's the responsibility of the league or the parent."
Some private organizations do them anyway, but it often boils down to cost.
"Cost is based on the number of searches and the number of jurisdictions, but you can get a pretty comprehensive background on somebody in the $20-40 range," Jim Sweeney says. Sweeney has been in the background check business for over 20 years and oversees his company, InquireHire, which does comprehensive checks for employees and private entities.
There are several private services in the area you can turn to do this work for you, but there are ways to do it on your own too. Sites like Judici or Iowa Courts Online, and sex offender registries will let you do a basic criminal history search and are all available to the public for free, but there are setbacks.
"You can do some searches yourself," Sweeney says, "The problem is how do you know what you're seeing, how do you interpret it?"
Online searches will turn up old court cases, or private services will dig for you for a price. Experts say it's a small price to pay for a piece of mind.
"In reality the cost for backgrounds is so minor compared to what you're going to incur in bad publicity or just lawsuit or anything that gets you in trouble," Sweeney says.
"None of us can predict human behavior," he says, "Although we know somebody, we don't always know what they're doing behind closed doors or what they're capable of doing."

Capsules do all the work at Aquarius Tanning Salon & High Tech Spa, where high-tech equipment takes the place of spa technicians. Clients step into tanning beds outfitted with Wolff lamps to turn their skin a bronzer hue, or lay down inside of the slim capsule to boost their metabolism and burn calories. Aquarius's other booths hydrate the skin, soften fine lines and wrinkles, and mist UV-free spray tans.

The sight of a lamb's wool mitt, soppy and soaked, rotating in circles across a vehicle's exterior is a common scene at Detail King, LLC, where owner Terry Sherrett and his team overhaul vehicles inside and out with comprehensive detailing. Their work leaves no mat left behind, with technicians polishing doorjambs and cleaning hard to reach areas with a firm, yet gentle human touch. The staff's precision draws clients from all automotive realms, from everyday drivers to construction companies and dealerships. And the team handles more than coupes and SUVs, with services extended to trucks, tractors, RVs, and monster trucks that accidentally swallowed any of the above.

Free Car Seat Travel Bag!
For a limited time, we're running a special promotion with the Primo Viaggio SIP 5-70 Convertible. From September 15 – October 15, you'll receive a free Car Seat Travel Bag with your Primo Viaggio SIP 5-70 Convertible purchase.
Ideal for an on-the-go lifestyle, our Car Seat Travel Bag is compatible with all of our Peg Perego car seats (including the Primo Viaggio SIP 30-30 and the Viaggio HBB 120) and is a perfect fit for the Primo Viaggio SIP 5-70 Convertible.
Offering the same safety and style as our celebrated Primo Viaggio SIP 30/30 infant car seat, our Primo Viaggio SIP 5-70 Convertible is quickly becoming a Peg Perego favorite. This versatile seat not only follows your child from infancy through toddlerhood — by converting from rear-facing (for children 5 to 45 pounds) to a forward-facing (for children 22 to 70 pounds) — it has some of the most innovative safety features available, including:
SIP: A Side Impact Protection head panel protects child's head, neck and spine. It easily adjusts to 10 different positions, even with child in the seat, ensuring a perfect — and safe — fit.
EPS: Energy-absorbing foam, Expanded Poly Styrene, in the shell and head panel absorbs crash forces, resulting in less force transferred directly to child, minimizing injuries in the event of a crash.
SAFE: A Shock Absorbing Foam Element device located below the shell crumples upon impact, reducing stress on child's neck and shoulders in the event of a crash.
