Re: Character not detectedphatmaddness909 Jul 25, 2015 12:51 PM (in response to yamakaze)
This is for Support - I am addressing the same issue others have had on this thread, but also voicing my extreme displeasure at the 'expedient' attention paid to users of this forum, as well as website issues that do not allow users to even submit a warranty claim for their issue. I just finished submitting a request for resolution via the Facebook page. Please advise on our next recourse as soon as possible.
You may call me Mr. Rogan.
Re: Character not detectedActivision Support Jul 30, 2015 9:06 PM (in response to phatmaddness909)
Hey there,
Sorry to hear you're experiencing issues with this as well, and our apologies for the delay. What particular website issue are you running into that is not allowing you to submit a warranty claim? What browser and device are you using? Any error message? If so, what does it say? The following link on return instructions may also be helpful. Please get back to us whenever you can regarding this and we can take it from there. Again, apologies for the delay in response.
Thank you,
Re: Character not detectedMadfabe Dec 29, 2015 11:30 AM (in response to yamakaze)
I'm having the same problem with Wash Buckler, it worked fine and since 2 days it is not detected by the portal of power. My 17 others skylanders work fine. When I bought it, it was already used so I didn't have any bill or receipt for the transcation. Does the waranty still work or do I have to throw the skylander to the trash?

Quite a bit has been going on as-of-late, though due to my recent blogging laziness one would never know it. To that- this post has an exciting new feature for this blog (if perhaps an rather unnecessary one)…. A Table of Contents! Page numbers seem pointless for obvious reasons, so I will divide into "parts", and attempt to update on far too many topics in one simple entry. And so…
Part 1: Sewing Classes wrap-up
Part 2: Eyejusters Glasses Distribution in Morocco (AKA, pigs fly)
Part 3: Soap-Making Workshop in Oulad Ali
Part 4: Camel Trek in south-eastern Morocco!
PART 1: Sewing Classes wrap-up
The end of our 6-week series of sewing lessons in Oulad Daoud was, admittedly, bittersweet. While the girls demonstrated markedly improved skill on the foot-propelled sewing machines and with embroidery, I think everyone was very sad to see the sessions end. It also put a rather bright spotlight on the fact that I am leaving the country very soon and continuing projects like this with these girls isn't an option anymore. All good things must end (hopefully this is just ending for me, not the girls!) but explaining how I will no longer be involved in community events, and that it is now up to them, was both a proud moment and a sad one. There is so much potential and now I have to hope that the girls take advantage of it!
The trainer, Zahara, donated her time and doubled the number of hours the girls had of training on the machines, while asking for no additional compensation from grant funds. The girls developed a wonderful, sister-like relationship with her by the end of their weeks together, and I hope that the friendships forged will lead to future educational events of this type for all of them. The men's association saw the girls progress very quickly through their lessons, and I hope that this will mean enthusiastic support for future educational workshops.
Keyword: Hope. It really sums up how closing this chapter in town feels. A bright future potential, but needing to admit my lack of control or involvement. A little bit of a hard pill to swallow, after two years of intimate, emotional involvement in this community. This wasn't supposed to be an update about my feelings, but oh well, here we are.
The photos below are just a few from classes over the final weeks of lessons. There aren't many of the girls, as whipping a camera out mid-lesson usually resulted in frenzied posing and requests to see the results…. a major classroom distraction, to say the least.
So, in conclusion, it has been a pleasure (if at times a challenging one) to work with these bright, motivated young ladies and I have nothing but great wishes for where they will take things in the future!
Part 2: Eyejusters Glasses Distribution in Morocco (AKA, pigs fly)
To put it simply: I cannot believe what just happened last week.
A bit of background: About a year and a half ago, I met with an organization out of Oxford, England that manufactures self-adjustable, cheap, corrective eyewear for the developing world. They prefer to distribute through established aid agencies and organizations, particularly those involved with youth education, and we came to the realization that the youth development program in Peace Corps Morocco was a great fit with their ideal distribution model. This kick-started a five-month period of optimism where I thought writing a grant to make this happen would be simple. HAH. Long story short, we re-wrote many grant proposals, received and then lost funding, and were left very discouraged by late spring of last year. This was when, considering my rural village work load, I handed the reigns of the potential project to my fellow PCV, Philip, and told him I wanted to be involved, but had neither the internet access nor ability to do the research and multi-continent communication that would be necessary to pull this off.
Well, Philip is amazing. He perservered, with some encouragement from me and other PCVs in the process, through MOUNTAINS of red tape and piles of grant paperwork, culminating in the first distributions of the glasses around Morocco last week. In the towns of Immouzer Marmoucha, Outat Elhaj and Sefrou, Phil, myself and other volunteers were trained by two of the company representatives from Oxford (Greg and Owen) in screening and distribution of the product and got to see first-hand how this innovative technology can change lives in an instant. Literally, a small turn of a knob on the side of the lenses, and someone can go from an inability to read the top line of a sight chart to the level of sight considered legal to drive in the UK. Nothing I have done during my time in Morocco has been so instantly rewarding. Few things in life are actually so instantly rewarding! It is particularly shocking that this distribution began a mere four weeks before I am slated to return to the US, and I'm so grateful to have seen the beginning of this project on-the-ground.
Over the next several months, nine PCVs in poor towns across Morocco will be distributing the 800 Eyejusters and reading glasses brought by the joint efforts of Philip and the guys at Eyejusters.

Part 3: Soap-Making Workshop in Oulad Ali
Over the last several months, my friend and fellow PCV Nicole has also been working on a community center project in her mountain village of Oulad Ali. She had mentioned wanting to do some kind of craft workshop with the women and girls in her village once they completed the center, and as of about two weeks ago, we accomplished just that!
Oulad Ali has a very small number of tourists that come through on an annual basis. This is currently an untapped potential resource for women to earn their own income via selling the crafts and woven goods that they already make as hobbies. When Nicole brought this idea up to the women, they were receptive to the idea of developing their crafts for small-scale sale, but they wanted to know how to make products that could be put into the boxes and baskets they already knew how to weave. Nicole and I brainstormed, and realizing that the hills around the village are full of fresh rosemary, sage and spearmint, we thought up the idea of teaching women to re-batch unscented, natural soap into scented, herbal soaps that could be sold to tourists.
Our workshop lasted one afternoon and took place in the new community center. We had six tables of girls work on six different pots of soap, adding oils, scents, ground up fresh herbs, ground almonds and seeds. The results were really exciting and the process of making the different soaps was very fun! Nicole also added a session on making natural facial scrubs with honey, sugar, lemon, nuts, etc… which went over really well. The photos below are from that workshop:
Part 4: Camel Trek in south-eastern Morocco!
I have been wanting to do this iconic Moroccan tourist experience since before I even arrived in country! I saved it, however, for a few friends who came to visit from Spain during their spring break this month. It also coincided nicely with visitng a fellow PCV friend who lives in the region of Morocco where the sand dunes and camel treks take place. Everything lined up and we went on our trek!
Four of us took an hour-long off road trip into the rocky desert toward an area called Merzouga. At a certain point on the horizon, bright orange sand dunes rise out of the ground and the Sahara abruptly begins. Along the edge of this sea of sand is an Auberge made from mudbrick in the style of a traditional Moroccan Kasbah. We were dropped off at the Auberge, waited to be fit to our camels, and then took off on an overnight trek into the dunes. We camped in a small cluster of bamboo huts and had tea and some red wine with the setting sun. We were woken up to re-mount camels and trek the hour and a half back out to the Auberge with the rising sun, surrounded by the bright orange sand dunes. The pictures don't do the experience justice, but they are beautiful all the same. The company was also excellent! It was a wonderful way to see a new side of Morocco in my last month here!
So that's my shoddy catch-up in an attempt at compensating for slacking with the updates. Life is very busy these days, very full. I find myself oscillating between excitement for the future and early-onset separation anxiety from Morocco. Either way, I know I'm a lucky girl and life is pretty great :)

A few days ago we gave you a look at the Barry McGee exhibit at SF MoMA and now we have a closer look. The installation is made up of many of his works over the years including drawings, personal photos (including a great portrait of Dash Snow RIP), and some of his iconic patterns. I think it's always great to see an artists early work to more recent ones as you can see their growth and to me that is the most fascinating part. There isn't much else to say, his work and relevance speaks for itself.

- Preheat oven to 275 degrees F.
- Whip together egg whites and sugar until combined.
- Add in nutmeg and sea salt and almonds and toss to combine.
- Spread almond mixture evenly onto parchment or nonstick baking mat-lined baking sheet.
- Bake for 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes until almonds are light golden brown and coated in caramelized sugar. Edges will cook faster than the center, so the stirring helps to redistribute the candied almonds to cook more evenly.
- Remove from oven and allow the mixture to cool slightly, stirring occasionally to ensure the almonds do not stick together. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
- Slowly melt the dark chocolate over a barely simmering water bath, stirring occasionally so the chocolate does not get too hot.
- When chocolate is melted, drizzle over candied almonds and stir to combine.
- Allow mixture to cool completely, stirring occasionally to thoroughly coat the almonds. Sift cocoa powder over chocolate-coated almonds and toss or stir to combine.
- Serve with Liberte Mediterranee Coconut yogurt. Crunch can be stored at room temperature.

Lawyer and civic leader Fletcher "Flash" Wiley was born on November 29, 1942 in Chicago, Illinois. Four years after his birth, Wiley's family moved to Indianapolis, Indiana, where he was raised. In 1953, Wiley was selected as a charter member of the "Gifted Child Program" by the Indianapolis Public Schools, in which he was the only African American in his class. Upon graduation from Shortridge High School in 1960, Wiley was recruited by the United States Air Force Academy and became the first African American from the State of Indiana appointed to a military academy, as well as the school's first African American football player. As an athlete, he gained the nickname "Flash," and in 1965, became the fifth African American graduate of the Air Force Academy and the Academy's first black Fulbright Scholar. Wiley continued his studies at L'Institut Des Etudes Politiques at the University of Paris in France; and, in 1974, following his service as a captain in the U.S. Air Force, he received his M.P.P. degree from Harvard University's Kennedy School of Government and his J.D. degree from Harvard Law School.
For two decades, Wiley worked as a practicing attorney concentrating in the areas of corporate and commercial law, small business development, entertainment law and real estate. He helped form the Boston, Massachusetts-based law firm of Budd, Reilly and Wiley, the largest minority-dominant firm in New England. In 1996, Wiley joined PRWT Services, Inc., as vice president and general counsel; and before he retired in 2008, he helped build PRWT into the State of Pennsylvania's largest black-owned business. Wiley later became of counsel to the law firm of Morgan Lewis & Bockius, LLP, where he specializes in corporate and commercial law. He is also chairman and chief executive officer of the Centaurus Group, LLC.
Wiley has been involved in many civic and charitable activities. In 1984, he founded and chaired the Governor's Commission on Minority Business Development. He also served for seven years, first as president and later as national chairman, of the Black Entertainment and Sports Lawyers Association, Inc.; and he later served for two years as chairman of the Greater Boston Chamber of Commerce. Wiley is also a founding member of the Black Alumni Associations of both the Harvard Law School and the Harvard Kennedy School. He is a benefactor of Crispus Attucks Children's Center, Inc.; overseer of the New England Region Anti-Defamation League; and chairman of the Board of The Dimock Center, Inc. He has also received numerous civic and professional awards, including induction into the 2010 "Academy of Distinguished Bostonians". In 2011, he was named by U.S. Secretary of Defense Robert Gates to the Board of Visitors of The Air University; and in 2012, President Barack Obama appointed him to the Board of Visitors of the U.S. Air Force Academy. In 2012, he received Honorary Doctorates from Cambridge College and New England School of Law.
Wiley and his wife, Benaree Pratt Wiley, live in Brookline, Massachusetts. They have two children: a son, Pratt, and a daughter, Benaree.
Fletcher "Flash" Wiley was interviewed by The HistoryMakers on October 15, 2004.

WEB APPLICATIONS are the weakest point of the internet according to cloud security provider Qualys, which said that security threats in this area are likely to remain the weakest point for a long time.
Speaking at the RSA conference in London today, Qualys' chairman Philippe Courtot said that the problem with web applications is that "they are essentially done by humans, and they are going to be done by humans for a long time and by many different people".
He explained that the speed at which we deliver web applications is extremely fast, so that every four weeks there is new code delivered.
Courtot believes that this speed itself creates a problem because the main problem is that engineers aren't willing to spend time writing code for web applications' firewalls and fixing vulnerabilities, and this is the significant challenge at the moment.
"We need to look at the issue of remediation but it's very difficult," Courtot said. "You will not find any good engineers interested in fixing them as they think it's a wasted talent.
"I think there's a need for new tools to remediate these applications and create a new generation of people who have unique engineering skills but also are passionate about making sure code is well written in fighting vulnerabilities." µ

Red and Yellow Barbet by robbobertWatch
©2010-2016 robbobert
A profile shot of a Red and Yellow Barbet at the San Antonio Zoo. After seeing the Bearded Barbet in Europe, I was excited to come back and see this guy right at the local zoo. Such a gorgeous, colorful bird.
Beautiful bird and very nice shot.
Incredibly beautiful.
This is amazing, and the colors are phenomenal! Ver interesting bird, haha!
Thanks. Glad you liked it. I think the drab background actually helps make the colors pop out even more.
Wonderful portrait !
Thank you so much for including my photo in the feature. You selected some really wonderful shots.
Incredible colors on this guy.
Agreed. Coloration is probably a big part of why I've gotten so deep into birding lately. It's always amazing seeing such vibrant splashes of color in nature.
Wow, what a cool bird! How big are they?
Oh, I'd say it was a good 8 inches from tip to tail, maybe a bit bigger. A fairly good sized bird.

Mild By Nature, For Baby, Hair Conditioner, 9 fl oz (267 ml)

Posted by FEED-ME-MORE on Jul 14, 2013
My precious furbaby yorkie says that the smell is pretty neutral which is very good for dogs. Ingredients are very good as well, except from one preservative which we don't like, because we don't know whether it is not bad still, even it is plant-derived. Furbaby evaluates hair as very soft, smooth, shiny and very light in weight after using it. Only says, that bottle could be bigger, maybe 12-16 oz. for let's say 8 dollars :P Ground-length haired furbabies NEED IT MORE!

This is a great, mild conditioner. I have used it on my hair and my 3 yr old daughter's hair as a conditioner wash, meaning, using it to cleanse the scalp instead of using shampoo. We are both African American, with thick density, fine textured and very curly/coily (penspring to pencil size curls) hair. It is a thicker consistency, not watery at all. It has a great, light, flowery scent and doesn't leave a nasty residue on the hair after rinsing out. It doesn't burn my baby's eyes and it being so thick, it doesn't run down her face while she's playing in the tub. It also gives good slip, so it's great for finger detangling. Try it!
weird fragrance.

Spread on toast is absolutely scrumptious! Very rich and savory walnuts flavor, and smoothly spread. Putting one or two tea spoons of light honey is also great. I made some dressing with this butter, olive oil, lemon juice (or wine vinegar) , salt and pepper for green salad. I definitely recommend this, and will buy this again.

Ava's story begins with deep excursion into the Roux family birthright that will, ultimately, keep her locked away from the world for sixteen years, not only to protect her from the sort of love that has sealed the fortunes of her mother and grandmother, but because Ava is the most vulnerable of the Roux women.
Born with the wings of a bird into a clutch of women who are steeped in the art of protecting the heart from brokenness and brutality, Ava's family cloisters her from the outside. Brutality is exactly what Ava's mother and grandmother fear is in store for this child, if the world ever gets its claws in her. The girl's very winged existence inspires both reverence and persecution from the community where she lives in Seattle in the 1940s.
All Ava wants is to be a girl, so out she goes into the world one summer solstice night with nothing and no one protecting her.
In a swirl of hauntingly realistic prose and magical realism, Ava Lavender explores the depths of beauty and terror and the heart's capacity to rise above. – Gigi

Zora and Me, by friends and co-authors, Victoria Bond and T.R. Simon is a suspenseful, summertime mystery starring a trio of besties: a young, fictionalized Zora Neale Hurston and her friends Carrie and Teddy. Set in Hurston's legendary Eatonville, Florida, the story opens with Zora and Carrie witnessing an Eatonville man being dragged into to swamp by an alligator, which leads to some serious storytelling by Zora to her schoolmates.
Later, when a guitar-playing troubadour named Ivory turns up de-capitated near the railroad tracks, Zora conjures up a dark tale involving a shape-shifting gator man with an insatiable desire for souls and songs.
I found it impossible to do anything but read this book cover to cover in one sitting. The easy, rhythmic dialect, the brassy confidence of Zora, and the hot lush, dangerous setting of southern Florida will clamp down on readers tighter than a gator on a chicken. Let it happen is my advice. Zora and Me is a suspense-filled story with endearing characters and unexpected twists and turns. – Gigi

Fleeing a public scandal, young Ava Bingen secures a position as a seamstress in the 16th-century court of King Christian of Skyggehavn. When the nervous Ava accidentally pricks the queen, she draws not only royal blood but also the suspicions of Midi Sorte, a mute, enslaved African nursemaid. The needle incident triggers a dark attempt to seize power by lords and scholars, and the females in the palace find their safety, security, their bodies, and very lives under siege.
I first read The Kingdom of Little Woundsas a manuscript, then in galley form, and again after its hardcover release. Each time, I have been transported—body, mind, and spirit—to the Kingdom of Skyggehavn.
What a magnificent, enchanted, and terrifying kingdom it is.
I've heard some readers say they stopped reading The Kingdom because they couldn't "go there." Cokal does, indeed, grip her readers by the cheeks and very firmly turn them to face terror, subjugation, and oppression inflicted upon females, as has been done throughout the ages. Yet her lyrical writing, saturated with passion and splendor, makes it hard to turn away because she floods the senses with good and delicate things, too. And in the end, friendship rules the Kingdom.
This is a novel for mature readers who are willing to "go there," those who realize that avoidance won't change the past and won't stop the atrocities that continue to be committed against girls and women all over the globe in the twenty-first century. It is hard to read about rape and violence, but "going there"—being present to the oppression of girls and women whether in non-fiction or fiction or poetry—may help to unlock our voices, our prayers, our power so that we can face down the unacceptable treatment of females, whether in Skyggehavn in 1572, Steubenville in 2012, or the Nigerian village of Chibok in 2014. – Gigi

One morning in fourth-grade gym class, Mina discovers something new about herself: she loves to run under a morning moon. What's even more surprising to her is that she's fast. As fast or faster even than her best friend, Ruth. No one has ever thought of Mina as an athlete; Ruth is the athletic one among their group of friends. As soon as Mina makes the track team, however, Ruth starts to ignore Mina at school. When the track coach picks Mina to race against Ruth, Mina has an important decision to make. Should she shine on the track, or should she let Ruth win?
It's a wonderful feeling to develop a new talent or to find unexpected success, but a terrible feeling when your new-found confidence causes conflict with a dear friend. Author Carolyn Marsden, who is known for writing from the heart and telling multi-cultural stories of self-discovery, explores the height and depth of such emotions in Moon Runner. This is a fast and satisfying read that speaks to the tension that arises, at times, in almost every friendship: the desire to please your friend versus the desire to pursue your own dreams. – Gigi
The Visconti House

Junior Library Guild Selection
I love eccentric people. They feel like fresh air to me, and they offer a new view on even the most ordinary things. But as we all know, there are times in life when being unusual can be seen as a liability. The Visconti House by Elsbeth Edgar is a book about two young people caught in that web. It's a celebration of two smart loners, Laura and Leon, who find their way to each other – and self acceptance – as they uncover the mysteries of an old mansion.
Laura despises school for all the usual reasons. The mysterious cliques of girls. The drone of teachers. The boredom. She's a bright and artistic girl who lives with her parents – a sculptor and writer – in an old Italian mansion, the only one of its kind in the neighborhood. However, her living arrangement isn't exotic in her view. It is yet another way for her to be outside of the norm.
When Leon Murphy, the grandson of an eccentric elderly neighbor, arrives at her school, Laura tries to keep her distance. A friendship with him would seal her fate as an outcast. Leon is rumored to be the son of a murderer, and he's certainly capable of pummeling anyone who crosses him. It's soon apparent, though, that he is brilliant – and much more than what others assume.
Eventually their paths do cross, and Laura does her best to keep it a secret from the prying and judgmental eyes of people around them. At what point should a strong girl take a stand on what and whom she likes?
If you are looking for big drama and an edge-of-your-seat mystery, this is not the book for you. You'll find no knives, guns or bloodshed here. Instead, this is a quiet book, a romantic story about young teens on those borders of friendship and romance. It's a lovely story for girls who like brains and originality.MM

From the outset of this epistolary novel, readers will absolutely recognize what kind of people twelve year olds Meena Joshi and River Dean Justice are. We'd call these two old souls in my family. Their friendship begins when Meena chooses River's name from a pen pal list. Not the e-mail pen pal list, but from among the kids who want to write real letters with stamps and everything. Meena lives in New York City. She chooses River, who lives in Kentucky, because she misses the mountains of her native India, and because she likes the name River.
Meena has lots of questions for River, and he does of her, too. They quickly establish the most important rule of their pen pal friendship: they can be their true selves with one another. Honest. Real. No holding back. What unfolds is an incredibly deep and bright journey into the interior worlds of two children who are carrying some grown up burdens, participating in history, and building bridges with letters. In Kentucky, River plays basketball and lives with his mom and his grandmother, Mawmaw, an advocate for mountains, trees, and social justice. His father, a former coal miner, had to leave Kentucky to find work. In New York City, Meena is starting a new school and finding she has a talent for art and a love for theater. She misses her own grandmother, Dadi, who still lives in India. Her father, too, works away from home. Meena lives with her mother and older brother in a rent-controlled apartment owned by their neighbor and friend, Mrs. Lao. As the lives of Meena and River unfold and entwine, history does too. Barak Obama is elected President; River and Mawmaw march on the Kentucky governor's mansion to protest mountaintop removal; and Meena's parents progress through the citizenship naturalization process.
The easy rapport between Meena, written by Neela Vaswani, and River, written by Silas House, is so believable and joyous to read. True, River and Meena come from two different cultures and far apart places, but they are kindred spirits who agree that the cures for most any ailment of the heart can be found by gazing across the mountains, holding hands with your grandmother, or looking into the brown eyes of a good, old dog. I think it's all too common that we adults deny the complex spiritual, political, and creative lives of children. The twelve year old girl who I was – campaigning at school for Jimmy Carter, fretting about my hairy arms, confronting prejudice within myself, and finding comfort in nature – would have devoured this book and then started reading it again. The love and openness between Meena and River as they share their hopes, their fears, and their regrets opened my heart so wide. As fine a novel as Same Sun Here is, I think it's also a handbook of sorts. On how to be a friend. On how to start over, how to fight for our earth, and how to be a good citizen of the world. GA

Sneaky Art
By Marthe Jocelyn
Middle grade, Ages 8 and up
Candlewick Press, 2013
Every now and then, a book comes skipping by with jolly shouts of sunshine and fun, calling out for everyone to join in. Even those of us who can't knit or crochet or quilt can make sneaky art. Marthe Jocelyn says so! And she shows us how. Sneaky art isn't graffiti or vandalism or mean or permanent. Sneaky art IS temporary, playful art made by YOU and placed around town or your neighborhood or home in sneaky places to make people smile or laugh or do a double-take. The introduction explains the rules, gives you a tool kit, and explains the hows, whens, and wheres of getting sneaky. The rest of this spiral bound book includes DIY-instructions for sneaky art projects that are fun and easy, even for me.
My favorite projects include: Teeny Party, colorful garlands sneakily strung in medicine cabinets, refrigerators, or school lockers; Cup Dangler, an easy, tasty surprise made with soft candy and paperclips that can be left on the rims of mugs or cups; Sink Boats in a public fountain; Little Landmarks, tiny houses made with empty matchboxes and tucked into nooks and crannies, and Stick Pixies – just imagine making a stick fairy out of your baby pictures and sinking them in your mom's birthday cake or Mother's Day flower pot. Who knows what new projects you'll come up with? Oh sneaky, sneaky, sneaky art! I'm so happy you arrived in time for summer! GA

Best Radio Station (2007)
With the rise of satellite radio, the local FM band is not only bland, it's doomed. Looking for classic rock comfort foodç You can tune in Pink Floyd's "Comfortably Numb" pretty much any time of day at Big 105.9. Fancy yourself an alt-rocker, ca. 1994ç The Stone Temple Pilots are always a button push away at 93 Rock (93.1). ButWVUM, "The Voice of the University of Miami," dares to be utterly unpredictable. And sure, sometimes "unpredictable" can mean "uneven." Or "dead air." But where else but a student-run radio station are you going to hear everything from Brahms to Wilcoç Even XM and Sirius alt-rock stations are unlikely to give you, as The Wave did one recent afternoon, a two-fer of Mono Puff's "Extra Krispy" (It's like once you get down in New York City/You'll never go home again/It's like once you've had Extra Krispy/You'll never go back again) and "Night Security" (I want to know the day custodian/I want to hear his harsh refrain/But most of all, I hear the calling/Of the watchman after hours). Sure the patter can be a little amateurish, and there are those occasionally unintended silences. But we'll take those surprises any day over another soul-deadening rendition of "Iron Man" or gag "Light My Fire."

MacBook Pro 17" Unibody Front Display Glass Replacement
Replace the front glass in your MacBook Pro 17" Unibody.
- Author: Brett Hartt
- Difficulty: Difficult
Have you ever wondered how your display seems to work just fine, despite the huge cracks running across the front of it? Likely, you have just cracked the protective glass covering the LCD. Use this guide to remove a damaged or cracked display glass.
Embed this guide
Choose a size and copy the code below to embed this guide as a small widget on your site / forum.
- Lower Case 2 steps
- Battery 1 step
- Display 13 steps
- Front Display Glass 11 steps
Remove the following ten screws securing the lower case to the upper case:
Three 13.5 mm Phillips screws.
Seven 3 mm Phillips screws.
Wedge your fingers between the lower case and the vent, and lift upward to release the clips holding the lower case to the upper case.
Remove the lower case.
Whenever working near the logic board, it is always wise to first disconnect the battery to avoid short circuits.
If present, grab the plastic tab attached to the battery connector and pull it toward the front edge of the device. For Late-2011 models the battery connector will not have a tab and is simply a plug that inserts straight down into the motherboard--to remove pry the plug straight up.
If the plastic tab is missing, use a spudger to pry the connector up from its socket.
Pull the tab parallel to the face of the logic board.
Before disconnecting the camera cable, a small plastic retainer stuck to the logic board must first be moved out of the way. In late-2011 models you can skip this step because there is not a plastic retainer on the camera cable connector.
Use the tip of a spudger to push the small plastic cable retainer away from the camera cable socket for enough clearance to remove the camera cable.
Pull the camera cable toward the optical drive opening to disconnect it from the logic board.
The camera cable socket is very fragile. Do not apply any upward force to this socket, as it may break off the logic board. Pull the camera cable parallel to the face of the logic board.
Carefully pull the Bluetooth cable toward the fans to disconnect it from the Bluetooth board.
Pull the cable parallel to the face of the optical drive.
Use the flat end of a spudger to peel the thin plastic cover off the top and sides of the Bluetooth board housing. For late-2011 models check out the other picture because the connector location is in a totally different location.
Use the flat end of a spudger to pry the Bluetooth antenna connector up and off its socket on the Bluetooth board.
If present, remove the small piece of EMI foam near the Bluetooth board.
De-route the camera cable from the slot molded into the Bluetooth board housing.
Remove the two 7.1 mm Phillips screws securing the camera cable retainer to the upper case.
Remove the camera cable retainer from the upper case.
Lift the black plastic flap attached to the display data cable retainer and rotate it toward the DC-In side of the MacBook.
Pull the display data cable out of its socket.
The display data cable socket is very fragile. Do not lift the connector upward as you disconnect it, as the socket may break off the logic board. Pull the cable parallel to the face of the logic board.
Remove the two 7.1 mm Phillips screws securing the display data cable retainer to the upper case.
Remove the display data cable retainer.
Remove the two outer 6.8 mm T6 Torx screws from each of the two display brackets (four screws total).
We purposely have you leave one screw attaching each display bracket to the upper case to aid in future steps.
Open your MacBook Pro so the display is perpendicular to the upper case.
Place your opened MacBook Pro on a table as pictured.
While holding the display and upper case together with your left hand, remove the remaining T6 Torx screw from the lower display bracket.
Be sure to hold the display and upper case together with your left hand. Failure to do so may cause the freed display/upper case to fall, potentially damaging each component.
Remove the last remaining T6 Torx screw securing the display to the upper case.
Grab the upper case with your right hand and rotate it slightly toward the top of the display so the upper display bracket clears the edge of the upper case.
Rotate the display slightly away from the upper case.
Lift the display up and away from the upper case, minding any brackets or cables that may get caught.
It's very easy for the rubber display gasket to deform when exposed to heat, so it is best to remove it before using a heat gun to remove the display glass.
Insert a plastic opening tool underneath the black rubber gasket at the bottom left corner of the display assembly.
Gently pry the wide edge of the gasket up from the back case.
Starting with the freed corner, pull the left gasket off the left side of the display assembly.
Continue pulling the display gasket off the display assembly down the right side.
Pull the gasket off the bottom edge of the display to completely free it and set it aside.
In the following steps, you will use a heat gun to soften the adhesive securing the outer black border around the underside of the front glass panel to the display.
Before starting, be sure to clean the display glass with a lint-free cloth moistened with a mild solution; it will make the suction cup adhere better, and will make checking for dust on reassembly easier.
With the heat gun set to low, start by heating the outer black border near the upper right corner of the glass panel.
Due to the heat applied, it is normal for a layer of condensation to develop on the inside of the glass panel and/or the outside of the LCD. It can be removed with glass cleaner once the glass is separated from the display.
With the panel sufficiently heated, fasten a heavy-duty suction cup near the lower right corner of the display glass.
To attach the suction cups we sell, first position the suction cup with the movable handle parallel to the face of the glass panel. While lightly holding the suction cup against the glass, raise the movable handle until it is parallel with the other handle.
Gently lift the corner of the display glass enough to insert a guitar pick between it and the display assembly.
Use the guitar pick to gently pry up the adhesive securing the front glass to the display.
Pry up the glass panel along the right edge of the display up to the halfway point.
Leave the guitar pick in place halfway up the right side of the display and remove the suction cup.
Use a heat gun to soften the adhesive under the display glass along the right and top edges of the display.
Attach a suction cup to the upper right corner of the front glass panel.
Pull up on the glass panel while you use a second guitar pick to separate it from the rest of the display assembly.
Continue working along the right edge of the front display glass until it is separated from the display.
Work along the top edge of the display assembly, carefully prying the adhesive up with the guitar pick.
Stop prying about an inch before you reach the iSight camera. Leave the guitar pick in place and remove the suction cup.
After prying up the three edges of the display glass, you should have four guitar picks resting underneath the panel, as shown.
With the heat gun set to low, heat the bottom edge of the display to soften the adhesive holding the glass in place.
A number of cables and the AirPort card lie underneath the clutch cover, so do not heat the area for too long.
Slowly lift the top edge of the glass panel and gently rotate it out of the display.
If necessary, use a plastic opening tool to free any part of the lower edge of the glass that is still attached.
Before reassembling, be sure to clean both the inside of the glass display panel and the LCD as any dust or fingerprints trapped inside will be annoyingly visible when the machine is on.
To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.

important to reassemble the "lower case" successfully: the threads of the seven 3mm phillips screws are drilled at an angle :-/
Very important note; this guide is NOT correct for the Macbook Pro 17" A1297 late '11.
The A1297 has an assembly adjacent to the optical drive, identifiable by 4 antenna connectors, 1 usb cable (with very small connector) and one PCI-e flat cable running across the optical drive.
I did not take pictures, but found one on the web. I'm very new to iFixit and have no idea yet on how to create a guide, but here's the picture showing the assembly on top (this pic only has 3 antenna wires, the A1297 has 4, but at least you'll know what to look for.
- carefully undo all connections and 2 screws
- remove the assembly and flip it over
- again carefully remove the shielding tape
- undo 3 tiny screws
- gently pry the airport card from the assembly (the flat cable will be a bit of a pain)
- reverse process with replacement card.

This step is a little difficult in reverse, that is, when re-attaching the battery. It helps to tilt the laptop up so you can see the edge of the board that accepts the plug. It may look like there are two slots for it, it goes in the bigger slot that is further away from the board.
Is this step really necessary? It is not part of the instructions how to replace the HDD in Apple's User Manual of the 2011 17" MBP.
As it says in the step: "Whenever working near the logic board, it is always wise to first disconnect the battery to avoid short circuits." It is not required, but it is simple insurance to avoid a $1000+ repair should you accidentally short components on the board with something metal.
There was no tab on my model. Battery is affixed to board and screws must be removed.
Mine also, and looks as if removing connector could damage motherboard.

* There is no tab on the A1297 (late 2011) model's battery connector. Be careful with the connector, it chips off the edges easily! Otherwise the same as bhodges2 & Stephen's notes.
** (Pleas also include the exact Model and Part numbers like P/N: MD311D/A; Mod.: A1297 in the comments and notes for your MBP)
Why are there no guides for the Late 2011 17" MacBook Pro A1297 (2.4GHz i7 quad core, MD311LL/A)??? I just replaced the RAM in mine and discovered that not only is there no tab on the battery connector, but the connector pulls straight up, perpendicular to the logic board, rather than parallel. I almost ripped the wires out of the connector by trying to pull it out parallel to the logic board like this guide instructed! After finally getting it out, my advice to those with the Late 2011 model is to use a spudger to loosen the edges of the connector then lift the connector straight up to get it out safely.
I replaced the display on my late 2011 model and noticed that it was quite different than the tutorial given here so I detailed all the differences to help others with late-2011 models on my blog: http://johnfixesstuff.blogspot.com/2014/...

I think I should have a photo of the plastic retainer as there may be more people like me who were afraid to take the part.
I viewed a YouTube video showing this process. There was a warning about the stripping of the Torx screws being common on this mid-2009 model MBP. Is that something you have come ever across? It's the only thing holding me back from attempting this myself. TY in advance!
Taking those hinge screws out can be difficult (they are fat, and they resist turning). In my first attempt I destroyed the Torx screwdriver bit (soft metal, I discovered, so the bit twisted into a corkscrew before it snapped off). After buying the ifixit screwdriver set I found that the driver bits were tough enough, but the screws still would not budge! So, I used a small mole-grip wrench to hold the metal part of the screwdriver, and GENTLY turned until I felt the screw give way with a click. Luckily, the threads did not strip. However, if you find that even with that extra torque from the wrench, it is still resisting in a big way, go one more step and try a very tiny drop of thread-loosening fluid on it. (That last suggestion, however, is risky, so be careful.... do not let any fluid get anywhere except the screw, and then give it time to work).

What's the url to the youtube video you mentioned?
I just did this now (11:21 am, Sept 18 2014) A tip for removing glass bezel on the frame if you don't have a heat gun. I used a very sharp but super thin razor (the one for shaving) and slice the adhesive. Be careful not to hit the lcd. After slicing all around, get any thin plastic card and slide it all around the bezel until the glass comes off. I have a mid 09 macbook pro 17" that had a broken lcd and a 2010 macbook pro i7 17" that had a logic board problem but good lcd. Both A1297. I did it twice using my method.

We congratulate Kimen Cultural Center on the recognition of its outstanding quality of concrete!
Recently completed
RRA is one of the few studios in Norway today with such a degree of diverse assignments.
We have experience from smaller residential projects as well as large planning proposals, considerate landscape interventions and complex cultural and educational institutions.
The Cultural Center of Stjørdal is an important node of the community, both locally and in the region.
The building is a place for all people interested in culture to explore and develop their abilities and talents.
Its facilities consists of a library, youth center, theatre and concert halls, cinemas, and venues for dance, music, media, art and other activities.
In addition it incorporates a community church and office spaces, within the same envelope.
On-going projects
As architects and designers we are fortunate to experience the overall process, from the first conceptual phase to the completion of high quality projects. We are eager to find pragmatic solutions with users as well as technical consultants, at the same time we are passionate to make sure that the original concept is carried through in the end result.
Our characteristic mountainous outline of the new Romsdal Folk Museum in Molde is taking shape. The building contributes to the Norwegian tradition of timber architecture and sustainable construction, and is to be completed by February 2016.
Construction is well on its way at Frogner Care Home, which is scheduled to be completed in spring 2016.
At the V10 Apartments we are working on the final phases of construction, while work on the interior and final finishings have begun. The project is scheduled to be completed in February 2016.
The office has attained most of its projects by participating in open or invited competitions, and this is still the main endeavour of the office. RRA has been awarded prizes for 2/3 of its participated competitions. This emphasizes the conceptual and academic strength of the office.
In addition, RRA has received numerous awards and nominations for its works, both national and international.
In the middle of the Danish fjord Limfjorden, there is a small island entitled Fur. The architectural instalation at Fur will allow tourists and visitors to come even closer to the spectacular nature.
The Island is characterized by untouched nature; cliffs, hilly landscape and a beautiful view over the fjord. The project will strengthen people's experience in this beautiful landscape, and create the condition to enjoy the great panoramic view.
The corten steel installation is also complemented with two more instalations.

Traffic for leisure purposes in modern societies contributes more
than 50% to all traffic movements. Therefore, leisure behaviour is
an important factor for explaining the development of mobility
patterns and traffic flows. On the other hand traffic flows and
infrastructure heavily influence living conditions and herewith
leisure behaviour. Based on a systemic approach this paper tries to
contribute to the systematisation and structuration of leisure
traffic flows. The hereby developed structural model shall give a
fundamental base to analyze future mobility patterns. It can be
hypothesized that - Future leisure needs and improved living
standards will increase mobility for leisure purposes at home as
well as in destinations. - There is a tendency to a concentration of
activities to specific locations, which creates traffic jam
problems, as well as an opposite tendency towards more diversivied
destinations patterns impacting nature and landscapes in
peripherical regions. - New forms of leisure activities lead to a
diversification of mobility. - With regard to the modal split there
is an increasing share of private car in leisure time and airtravel
in tourism due to modern leisure needs These trends ask for new
concepts in traffic management as well as new forms of attractive
public transport means to avoid a significant distruction of leisure

With all the hubbub around Visual Studio Team Foundation--which will be available for download for the first time, later this week (!)--you might be wondering what's happening with Visual SourceSafe. Well, the SourceSafe team is hard at work on the next version, which will be released with Visual Studio next year. For details, see The [new] Future of Visual SourceSafe or The Roadmap.
What's going on behind the scenes in SourceSafe-landia? Shortly after we shipped Visual SourceSafe 6.0d, the SourceSafe program managers sat down to read and cull a feature list from your many, many emails, newsgroup posts, blogs, articles, voice mail messages, handwritten letters, online chat transcripts, and messages in bottles about the product. They decided, quickly and unanimously, that performance is an issue of universal concern. Additionally, they decided that performance was one user concern that we could reasonably and cost-effectively improve. Aaron Junot's recent post about SourceSafe performance is typical,
"If you have ever worked through a vpn using vss, you know the pain it can cause. I still have a bald spot from where I hit my head on my desk one to many times waiting to check something in. Something like a 1 line change, where you wonder how it could take literally minutes.
So after some searching, I found a little app that seems to be working extremly well. Vssconnect from VoxCode software has server bits that runs as a service on the VSS box, and client bits. Server is pretty simplistic, and offers a couple options over the normal vss server, but nothing to cheer about. The client, on the otherhand, is a very fresh perspective on vss. Make to look like vss with a facelife, the ui does everything the normal vss ui does and a few extras. It also seems much faster then the normal ui.
Anyway, check it out here."
Six months ago, the indefatigable and ever-resourceful GPM of the SourceSafe team convened a meeting to kick off the team's perf improvement effort. As usual, he had a cool gimmick: beer, pretzels, and Monster Garage. I've said it before and I'll say it again: if you want people to come to your meetings, Just Add Beer. ;-). If you want to sell them on an idea or cause (like, 'You CAN make [your product name] scream like a Maserati'), show them a motivational HowTo video.
In the months since that seminal meeting, the walls of our offices here in Redmond have been festooned with flame-covered cars and street signs like "Performance Alley". We have 'performers of the week', flaming beverage containers, and Monster Garage paraphernalia (air fresheners, etc). Heck, the SourceSafe GPM even ate chocolate covered grubs to settle a bet that the team wouldn't be able to improve LAN performance beyond a certain point. The results of this effort have been phenomenal and you won't be disappointed. In fact, the SourceSafe team's perf improvement project has led to some killer, outside the box innovations such as asynchronous project loading in the Visual Studio IDE.
What sorts of "gimmicks" has your team used to build excitement around a project and inspire great thinking and productive excellence?
