Use this guide to replace a cosmetically damaged clutch cover.
Nessuna parte specificata.
Remove the following 10 screws securing the lower case to the MacBook Pro 13" Unibody:
Seven 3 mm Phillips screws.
Three 13.5 mm Phillips screws.
It looks like you need a Phillips #000 screwdriver for the 10 bottom screws. I tried the #00 and it's too big. Good thing I bought a 23 piece precision screwdriver set or else I would have been screwed.
The 10 screws that hold tha bottom case take a #00 Phillips driver, if yours doesnt fit it's probably because it's cheaply made & not precise enough. The only thing that I needed a #000 driver for was the keyboard screws. They're so small they look like specks of dirt or sand. I stripped out 4 of them & now will need to grind the heads off with a Dremel/rotary tool. The other thing that sucks is iFixit doesn't have a tutorial for keyboard replacement!
A true Phillips head screw's slots are rounded at their inner corners, to allow the screwdriver to "cam out" (pop out) of the screw head before you apply too much torque and strip the threads in the part that you're torqueing the screw into. However, the screws used in the Macbook don't have those rounded inner corners, so they're not Phillips. Instead, they may be a Japanese standard known as JIS B 1012, or a Frearson (also known as a Reed & Prince), but that's a less common design. Maybe technically these non-Phillips screws should be used with a screwdriver that was specifically designed for them, but they can be properly removed and reinstalled using a truly precision-made Phillips #00 (some people find a #000 sometimes works even better) whose tip comes to a sharp point--not the lousy fake "precision" screwdrivers that are sold in too many places. See my next comment for more.
Many screwdriver manufacturers get away with marketing fake "precision" screwdrivers because, in the words of the Wikipedia article at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sc...: "Most heads come in a range of sizes, typically distinguished by a number, such as "Phillips #00" or "Torx T5." These sizes do not necessarily describe a particular dimension of the drive shape, but are often arbitrary designations in the same sense as a "Size 8" dress."
In other words, the quality of many "precision" screwdrivers is poor. In my experience, one of the biggest problems with many fake "precision" Phillips screwdrivers is that the four blades at the tip are often too wide, and their width may even vary on the same screwdriver (they're not supposed to). So just because a screwdriver is marketed as a "precision screwdriver", it may not be, and many that are labeled as #00, or even #000, will not work for a Macbook's screws. See my next comment for still more.
One of the best manufacturers of precision screwdrivers is Wiha (http://www.wihatools.com/tech-tools/prec... cost more, but they're worth it. Or buy screwdrivers from iFixit, who seem to be selling JIS screwdrivers.
Another article with some good info on screw and screwdriver types:
Also keep in mind that some screws are tougher to remove and reinstall because they have a thread-locking compound on them, which is usually blue.
Phillips #00 is the correct screwdriver for the lower case. Maybe the one you have is worn or badly made.
Compare the short screws carefully before reinstalling them. The shouldered screws go in the holes on the front edge.
thanks twisk, I wish i would have read your tip before I finished putting the bottom of my laptop back together. I managed to get all screws in somehow, but one was in fact too-tight.
BTW, big big thanks to the Author: Andrew Bookholt. Just used this guide and my trackpad now works again.
xitxit2 -
Before I started removing any screws I took a piece of paper and drew the bottom of the laptop and put a piece of double-sided tape in the spot where each screw goes. That way when I took out the screws, I could put them on the tape so I knew exactly which screw went in which spot. I did the same thing for dismantling the inside on another sheet of paper, then a third sheet for the screen after getting the front glass off.
I use a similar technique: I print out the iFixit manual for the job, and Scotch-tape down the screws/brackets/cables I remove at each step next to the component descriptions. That way, when I'm reassembling, the bits are taped right next to the photo of where they came from.
adlerpe -
That's exactly what I do for all my repairs! It's the best way to keep track of all of the parts ' original location and to make sure that you don't miss any parts during reassembly.
Great idea and one I use often
Excellent idea! Thanks for sharing it here.
The colours you used for these circles are indistinguishable for colour-blind people. Please consider using something like the palette suggested by visibone: http://www.visibone.com/colorblind/
Squares, Circles, Triangles (you get the idea) would work as well to distinguish the different screws.
I'd use a Phillips #000 screwdriver also. The #00 can work, but if the screws are in really tight, it doesn't get far enough down into the screws to get purchase, so it will start to strip (and I agree that the screws are pretty soft). On mine, the screws for the fan were really tight, started to strip with #00, needed a #000 and quite a bit of pressure to get them to move.
The Mid 2010 MacBook Pro 13" does support 16 GB RAM, but it is very picky about the type of RAM. OWC sells a 16 GB kit (2x 8 GB). I think it's got to be 1066 (aka 1067) MHz RAM. A lot of 8 GB modules on the market now are faster than 1066 MHz, and reports I've read say people start getting kernel panics if they use the wrong RAM.
Some info here:
"1066 MHz PC3-8500 DDR3 SDRAM"
"*Originally, both the official and actual maximum RAM was 8 GB. However, as confirmed by site sponsor OWC, if running OS X 10.7.5 or higher, updated with the latest EFI, and equipped with proper specification memory modules, this model can support up to 16 GB of RAM."
Our Mid 2010 already had "the latest EFI" (i.e. Boot ROM version in System Profiler), so the reference to updating it may not be relevant.
Winston -
I used a 00 that fit but the screws were very tight so I used a tiny paintbrush with some wd40 on it and put it around the edges of the screws. Worked like a charm
I had the same problem. The #00 screwdriver worked for some of the screws but some others were too tight and I had to use a #000. Maybe it was because the cover had slightly bent because the battery inside had basically doubled its width, but I still found that the #000 was a much better fit for these screws. Even the ones that came out with the #00 came out much easier with the #000. I would suggest updating this guide to suggest using a #000.
If you are running OS X 10.11.2 or newer, battery provided by iFixIt will not work. I've already tried 2 batteries from iFixIt and neither worked. iFixIt needs to come clean on this unfortunate situation. I've already put 8 hours into this futile effort when it should have taken me 45 minutes.
What was your solution? I'm using 10.11.3 OS X. I may need a battery replacement very soon too.
John Doe -
The 10 screws that hold that bottom case take a #00 Phillips driver, if yours doesn't fit it's probably because it's cheaply made & not precise enough.
I purchased the IFixIt 54 bit Driver Kit and their Phillips #00 are NOT the appropriate size for the bottom screws on this MacBook Pro. This manual needs to have the tools changed to Phillips #000 Screwdriver. Until then I shall not click the "Give the author +30 points" button. Apart from that, the rest of the manual is very good. It would also be an idea to make a comment about making sure the battery connector is in the correct position when plugging the battery back in. One poster commented that their battery will not charge anymore. My guess is a pin(s) was/were bent due to the connection not being in the vertical orientation when being pressed back together. :-)
THANK YOU for writing and generously supplying this guide for our use. It is much appreciated. +30 point coming when the Phillips #000 size is changed or added.
j'ai remarqué que le 4 vis philips courtes sur le bord avant ont une courte entretoise
celles des cotés n'en ont pas et sont courtes
la dernière sur le bord qui comporte les 3 longues, est un poil plus longue
si l'on ne fait pas attention, les vis des cotés ne peuvent pas se visser à fond et dépassent un peu
parfait pour le reste ! Merci
I am pretty sure that one of the tools listed as needed has changed from when I looked it up last week and placed the order, and is a mistake. Here is a screen shot of the first step to replacing the fan on my Mac unibody. Doesn't a 3mm Phillips call for a #1 PH screwdriver? Is the mistake in the size of the screw or the screwdriver designation? And I am sure the last time I looked it did not say I needed to remove 13.5 mm Phillips screws. Maybe I can figure it out, but I once ruined a laptop by dropping a back screw from the screwdriver into the innards. I never found it - until it rattled around and ruined the computer! Should I guess? What does everyone think?
Slightly lift the lower case and push it toward the rear of the computer to free the mounting tabs.
In the introduction you should link fixers to this excellent doc: https://www.ifixit.com/Misc/HD_Software_...
It is really critical, super easy, and free(!) to clone your existing drive onto the new one you will install. I ran into one error, but SuperDuper! support replied immediately on how to fix it...Thanks ifixit and SuperDuper! (I ponied up the $28 for the software anyway, I was so impressed!)
Use the flat end of a spudger to lift the battery connector up out of its socket on the logic board.
Citazione da gansodesoya:
why is step 3 necessary?
Removes the possibility of any current flow. This is especially important if you are trying to mitigate the damage to the circuitry due to a spill on a keyboard.
$@$@. Don't use an non-isolated screwdriver for this. I just shorted-out my battery :(
You are absolutely right, never use a screwdriver on the logic board or any connector! Delicate use of fingernails or a credit card will get you through most situations if you lack a spudger.
How do you get that battery connector back on? Do you just press it in back in place after you're done?
yes. I usually plug it in before I screw it down so I can lift the battery a bit and have enough slack to be able to go straight down on the connector, otherwise it comes in on a bit of an angle, which can't be good (though not necessarily bad).
Would it not be advisable to drain the battery completely before attempting to repair, if you want to be sure you don't get a spark when removing the battery connector?
Disconnecting the battery connector is not that different from simply unplugging a battery from an older model MacBook with a removable battery. You're not trying to protect yourself from a "spark", but the internal circuitry when taking the MacBook apart.
I neglected step 3 and now my computer won't turn on. Could I have shorted out my logic board?
I had the same problem , my macbook doesn't switch on working
A very easy and fast update indeed! Using this guide and the tools indicated on top I replaced the two RAM cards (2GB each) with two 8GB RAM cards from OWC for a total of 16GB RAM in my MBP Middle 2010 Core 2 Duo (Officially not supported according to Apple).
Make sure you select RAM with these specs: 16GB DDR3 PC8500 1066MHz Kit (8GBx2)
Apps open much faster and I can run a virtual machine at a decent speed.
Removing the battery is not required, but in some instances can make installing ram much easier. If you plan on upgrading from 4GB (2X 2GB) to 8GB (2X 4GB) Removing the battery would be better. There are two levels of ram. If you are replacing both levels, then remove the battery. If you are just replacing the top, dont bother. Removing the battery for very long or even at all (depending on the CMOS battery age and health) could possibly reset settings, the clock, saved wifi passwords, and more.
This step almost finished me, and I did extensive damage to the battery plug. Fortunately, I later replaced the battery, and the replacement came with a new plug! :) Newbies need to know - 1. The battery plug is like a thin lip on a thicker lip, so you need to pry BETWEEN 2 thin lips to get it off, else you are trying to yank out the socket. 2. Mine was initially VERY tight, and trying to get it out broke the plastic on all sides of plug, even though I was as careful as possible. Luckily, this didn't hurt functionality and I later replaced the battery. AFTER disconnecting once, it was never so tight again,
Guys I just used my index finger nail. It's the most useful nail to let grow a little bit for this type of procedure. Came off pretty easy when using both my right hand index and left hand index together to lift the plug up out. Found some plastic folded it and place it right over the socket so the plug would go back in and now the plug holds the plastic in place so I can focus on the main work.
Use the flat end of a spudger to pry the subwoofer/right speaker cable connector up off its socket on the logic board.
You must first separate the little foam pad to see better how to pry the cable
connector up. You must be
careful not to root up also its socket
stuck on the logic board
My subwoofer/right speaker connection seemed to be soldered on the main board. Of course, I pried this off..realizing right after that there was no reconnecting it (&^$%^@!). There's really no reason to even disconnect this wire on the MacBook pro 13 mid-2009
Glad this is my "project" Mac
Please Be Carefully With This Step, Because I Had To Resolder It Back To The Logic Board. But There Is A Black Foam Piece Over The Cable You Have To Pry Up, Lift The Foam Piece And Then Try To CAREFULLY Pry Cable Connector
A better description would have been worth a lot....
I accidently pried off the socket aswell... gonna have to go to the computer/robotics lab at my college to resolder it -.-
CAUTION!! Note is required here! First off step is truly unnecessary! Secondly, just don't do it!
A real closeup photo of this small piece of hard plastic that prevents the connector from falling out would be a great help. !
Clearly I should have read this as well, popped the socket off even being gentle.
Disconnect the camera cable by sliding it horizontally out of its socket.
If you see a small plastic retainer stuck to the logic board that prevents the camera cable from sliding out, peel it up carefully from the logic board. Apply a little heat from a hair dryer or heat gun if necessary to help soften the adhesive holding it in place. Do not attempt to forcibly disconnect the cable with the retainer in place.
If you still have trouble, use the point of a spudger to push at each side of the connector and "walk" it slowly from its socket.
that's not only the camera but the wifi and bluetooth too. Be extremely careful!
So I unfortunately did not find this guide when I was replacing my keyboard. I did at first force this connection, didn't know I could peel that black plastic piece off, then was able to smoothly get it in. Now my Bluetooth/Wi-Fi/web cam isn't working. I'm looking at the connection now and it looks undamaged. How do I know for certain I damaged the cord and/or socket
Please be VERY careful. I fixed my Macbook Pro A1278 Backlit Keyboard but lost my WiFi/Camera/Bluetooth…
This step is unnecessarily tricky. I've tried to make it better by adding images highlighting the plastic stopper thingy and showing a clear arrow of the direction the cable should be pulled.
However, simply pulling the cable may not be enough to remove it. It sure wasn't for me. I think there ought to be a close-up of the two little nubbins on the sides of the plug which one uses to wiggle it loose from the connector by gently prying with a tiny flathead screwdriver. I didn't add that tip because (a) it would have made the instructions longer, (b) I didn't think to take a photo of it, and (c) using a screwdriver carelessly next to the logic board could scratch or break components on the motherboard. A guitar pick or very small spudger might work.
@hackerb9 Thanks for your edits and comments! I took some additional shots and tried to clean this up a little for everyone. There should be a lot less confusion now. Interestingly, neither of the two MacBook Pros used for these guides had the plastic retainer piece you folks mentioned, but I left that image in a link so everyone can still see what it looks like if needed.
Thanks for incorporating some of my edits and for taking new photos.
Are you the one who took the original photographs? If so, you did originally have the hard plastic retainer as it was in those photos, just obscured by your thumbnail. The glue on the retainer allows it to shift a bit, so it's possible you took out the cable and knocked off the retainer without noticing it.
Your two frame animation of pulling out the plug is helpful to show the proper direction. Given the number of people who have destroyed their MacBooks from this procedure, I think we should do even better. The instruction would be clearer if it said, "Disconnect the camera cable by sliding it horizontally out of its socket."
Also, if you can post a link to a picture without fingers in the shot, I will add an arrow showing the proper direction. (I would have added it to the original, but visually it would have gone through your fingers.)
P.s. this isn't as important, but where did you hear the tip about the hairdryer? I'd leave that out as firmly peeling it up works fine.
hackerb9 -
Negative, I'm not the original photographer. You're right, I do see the retainer in some of the previous photos, although it wasn't in any of the images for this particular step. May have been an oversight on the part of the original author! So I'm glad you caught it. I updated the verbiage as you requested. Don't worry about adding arrows—at this point, if someone ignores both the images and the multiple warnings in the text, that's no longer a fault with the guide. The heat/hairdryer tip is standard practice for anything that's secured with adhesive—I hardly ever work on a MacBook of any vintage without using a heat gun at least a couple times. It may not be strictly necessary, but the result is much cleaner and it reduces the risk of accident.
Hello everyone, please tell me, next to the connector wifi, are 3 capacitors and 1 resistor (black)? I have black and brown swapped, I have one so macbook pro 2009
I'm trying to understand your question. There's tons of little doodads everywhere. What is the issue? That the colors on your motherboard don't match the photo? If so, you needn't worry. It's normal for colors to vary.
I'm talking about these smd, it's all capacitors or black is a resistor as it rings
Yup, those are the thingies next to the connector in the picture. What's the problem?
hackerb9 -
I bought a macbook on ebay wifi Bluetooth and the camera are not working, the cable works, but it seems to me 1 of the capacitors is dead since it is ringing
Remove the following screws securing the camera data cable and right speaker to the upper case:
Two 8 mm Phillips screws.
One 4mm Phillips screw.
Slide the camera cable bracket out from under the subwoofer and remove it from the computer.
For my mid-2010 mbp, removing the 4mm screw is not enough as the camera cable bracket is under the black cover. I need to unscrew another screw (see the dark cover in step 6). However, the speaker (dark circle in step 6) is a strong magnet and the little screw flew onto it and crack the speaker slightly. You need to be very careful of this. The sound wasn't as clear when I turn on loud volume after that.
Be careful when taking off the screws here. When I was taking apart the bracket, one of the screws became severely stripped (to the point where it was rounded. I had to wait to wait until my father got home so he can give me his screw extracting tools. The same can be said for the display cable bracket ( but that one wasn't such a big deal for me since I didn't severely strip it, a bigger screwdriver helped out for me.)
Grab the plastic pull tab secured to the display data cable lock and rotate it toward the DC-in side of the computer.
Pull the display data cable connector straight away from its socket.
Well, my display ended up looking like this after the repair:
As you can see, there was a light/dark banded pattern along the bottom of the screen, corresponding to the LCD's backlight. In my case it was also accompanied by a constant high pitched whistling noise. I swear to anything that's holy, it was not coming from the fan or the speaker, but rather the motherboard itself.
Anyway, both these problems went away when I disconnected and reconnected the connector at this stage. I'm saying this on the off chance it helps someone else.
I did what you said, disconnect and reconnect the display data cable but the problem didn't go away. Any idea how to fix this?
jonk2015 -
I also encountered the issue at the bottom of the screen. I can't get mine to go away. I can make it vary a bit or at least the whole display to vary by fluctuating the connection, but it just won't go away. I'm open to any other suggestions.
I might have manhandled the bottom of my screen a bit. I didn't realize how to get the plastic u-shaped cover off, and I fudged around with it for a while before reading somewhere that it just slides down. I thought I had read that it snapped on, so I had been a little flustered on why it wouldn't snap off.
Anyway, if anyone has suggestions I'd be all ears.
Tim -
It's not to clear but there is a piece of spring steel that rotates away from the main (circuit board side) of the connector....this piece sort of hugs the parameter of the screen cable locking it to the circuit board...both arms wrapped around your brother....looking closely (10x magnifier) at this cable one of the gold connections is slightly oxidized---my display arbitrarily flickers and this symptom is lessened as the temperature increases...I suspect this is the cuase of the screen flashing on/off
Use your Torx driver to remove the two outer 6.5 mm screws securing each of the two display brackets to the upper case (4 screws total).
This says t use a 6.5 mm Torx driver. In the required tools list it only mentions a 6 mm Torx driver. Where can we find a 6.5 mm Torx Driver?
The 6mm vs 6.5mm is the length of the screw. It is still a T6 head (although mine was a T7 for some reason). I think the middle screw on each side is 0.5mm longer.
lol… turns out mine is a mid-2012 model. That accounts for the different screw head. But the 6mm vs 6.5mm still use the same driver if they're both T6.
In my case, i had to use a t8 screwdriver. My tools are not from Ifixit but i'm just sayin.
Correct! The screws on the Mid-2010 are T8. As far as the length goes they were 6.16 mm, 6.13 mm, 6.11 mm and 6.07 mm (measured end to end) and the head thickness was consistent at 0.85 mm on mine, so I,m going to go out on a limb ans say they are the same size. FYI, you can't tell by eye any difference in size.
It would pay to check on which A1278 sub-model you were working, just to allow for sub-model differences.
Hey folks, regarding the screw/driver sizes: there are separate guides for the Mid 2010 model with the T8 screws. Always use the correct guide for your model to avoid confusion, stripped screws, etc. Hope this helps!
Lift the display up and away from the upper case, minding any brackets or cables that may get caught.
May be in the wrong place but then please direct me. At this step, can I just take off the upper half (meaning the screen, LCD, and top housing shell in one) and simply replace it with another upper half of the same edition???
Yes, you can. Thanks what I'm doing now. :)
Grab the clutch cover as shown and slide it toward the right side of the display.
i've found this impossible to get back on correctly.
i cant get the plastic to slide back that 1/4" it needs to fit properly
Does anyone know any tricks? :(
This is a great guide but it's lacking one thing - where can I get a replacement clutch? I don't have a donor machine available, can I order just the plastic piece somewhere?
I was replacing a clutch cover that had cracked into a few pieces. I found the replacement didn't slide to the left on installation. On further investigation I found the tabs from the old one were broken off inside where the cover slides. Once they were removed the install wen much better.
I found my replacement cover on Amazon.ca in case someone needs a Canadian source.
Same here. It's a hardest thing I've try to repair ever. I've end up cracking the right side of cover and leaving it like that. It was only very right tab that didn't want to get in place, rest of them went easy and slides okay. I've checked for any debris but found nothing. And I was replacing LCD cable, anything else went jus fine.
Remove the clutch cover from the display.
The flat face goes on the bottom edge of the display. The display and wifi cables must be routed below the hinges in the display, that is, closer to the bottom edge of the display.

What is the circuit board under the clutch? I broke off one of the pieces putting the clutch back on.
That is the airport card and its antennae.
Is this the same process to follow for replacing a clutch cover on a MacBook Pro 13" mid-2012 model?
I used this guide for my mid-2012 model (because I thought it was a 2010). It was very similar. The Torx screws were a T7 instead of a T6 and the subwoofer connects with the airport card (instead of the airport card being inside the clutch). I suspect there is a more specific guide on this site. :)

From little things, big things grow…
Inspiring founder & owner of Northern Californian brewery Sierra Nevada Brewing Co, Ken Grossman, is a man of passion, determination and innovation.
From humble roots, as a small West Coast craft brewery with a goal to produce 2,000 hectolitres of beer a year, Sierra Nevada Brewing Co is now a bi-coastal North American business that champions innovation, advanced energy technology & sustainability, business leadership and is now brewing 1.7 million hectolitres of beer a year from their West Coast and East Coast breweries.
After learning to brew from the father of a close friend at a young age, Ken Grossman opened a homebrew supply store in downtown Chico, called The Home Brew Shop in 1976, before selling it in 1978, founding Sierra Nevada Brewing Co in 1979 and releasing their first batch of Sierra Nevada Brewing Co beer in 1980, which was an American Stout.
At the time, there was no such thing as small-scale or "micro" brewery equipment in the USA and it was way too expensive to import from countries like Germany, so everything required for the brewery had to be repurposed or custom built, with Grossman travelling all over California and Oregon in search of stainless still tanks/equipment and teaching himself refrigeration and welding, so that he could fashion the majority of the new brewery out of recycled dairy equipment.
In today's inspiring chat, brought to you by @craftbeerlovin' on Instagram and the team at Phoenix Beers, we explore vast-ranging topics including Ken Grossman as an individual, the explosion and evolution of Sierra Nevada Brewing Co, his love of hiking, sailing, fishing and diving and how Sierra Nevada got its name (it's not as 100% obvious as you think), Sierra Nevada's partnership with monks in a small Northern California town – brewing a series of Ovila Abbey ales inspired by Belgian Trappist monks that helped raise millions of dollars for the monastery, the brewery's approach to innovation including the installation of an array over 10,000 solar panels and fuel cells to reduce their environmental impact in 2007 to 2017, where the transition to gas turbines and introduction of Tesla Powerpack batteries now means that Sierra Nevada produce 80-90% of their own electricity onsite!
We chat about Ken's first trip down to Australia for Good Beer Week 2017, the creation of Sierra Nevada's Tropical Torpedo IPA, the introduction of their 2nd brewery on the east coast in the mountains of North Carolina to reduce shipping impact and the greenfield site, which enabled Sierra Nevada to minimise the impact in its construction and design, the process that the 5-10 new small batch Sierra Nevada beers brewed every single week have to go through to become part of the core range of Sierra Nevada Brewing Co beers and a teaser of the latest beers that are soon to be joining the Sierra Nevada family including goses, sours & more!
A wonderful journey and inspirational tale of a man who has pursued his passions tenaciously and evolution from one of the smallest of businesses in the mountains of the Sierra Nevada Mountain Ranges to one of the largest, most successful craft beer breweries in America!
Let's get into it!

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) Tim Tebow is active and serving as the New York Jets' backup quarterback Sunday at Jacksonville.
Third-string quarterback Greg McElroy is inactive, along with starting tight end Dustin Keller (ankle). Receiver Stephen Hill (knee) is active after being listed as questionable Friday.
Tebow sat out the last two games while recovering from two broken ribs. McElroy replaced Sanchez during last week's 7-6 win over Arizona.
Also inactive for the Jets are receiver Jordan White, receiver Clyde Gates, linebacker Ricky Sapp, defensive lineman Damon Harrison and guard Caleb Schlauderaff.
The Jaguars are without running back Rashad Jennings, cornerback Aaron Ross, running back Maurice Jones-Drew, guard Mike Brewster, receiver Cecil Shorts III and defensive ends George Selvie and John Chick. All but Chick were ruled out Friday.

Q: What's the best way to cook a thick pork chop?
A: Iron Chef Michael Symon and I differ on this point, but I think the answer's clear: Brine, and then cook slowly.
Brining was originally used as a means of preserving meats and other perishables. Since the advent of refrigeration, such preservation techniques have become unnecessary. But brining is now popular for another reason entirely: increasing the succulence of meat or bird cuts that lack fat or flavor. A proper brine contains just enough salt to help the food retain its moisture content. Flavors may be added using cider, beer, wine, vinegars or other liquids, and sometimes spices or sugars (I like rosemary and sage).
A brine is simply a salt solution. For a basic brine, use 1 cup salt for each gallon of liquid. For each cup of salt used, boil 2 cups of water. Add the salt and any spices to the boiling water and stir to dissolve. Add the remaining (cold) liquid to chill the brine then pour the liquid into a container deep enough to submerge the meat or poultry entirely. Place the meat or bird in the cool brine and, if necessary, weigh it down with a plate to keep it submerged. Refrigerate or place in a suitably cool place. Generally, I like to keep it there overnight, but not a full 24 hours. Rinse the meat twice before cooking, and discard brine.
After rinsing the chops and patting them dry, season the meat aggressively on both sides. Dredge them in flour and sauté to get a nice crust. You can't overestimate the importance of the browning phase and of achieving color. That's going to create the rich intensity of flavor.
This recipe is in the style of the zingara or Gypsy. The name must be because of the colorful components of this fiery, festive dish. It's the perfect weeknight meal.
Pork Chops with Peppers and Capers
Cotolette alla Zingara
Courtesy of "Molto Italiano" (ecco, 2005)
Makes 6 servings.
4 1/2 quarts water
1 cup kosher salt
1 cup packed brown sugar
12 black peppercorns
4 bay leaves
6 pork rib chops
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 bell peppers -- 1 each red, green and yellow -- cored, seeded and cut into thin strips
5 bulb onions, green tops reserved and sliced, bulbs cut into rings
1/4 cup black olives, pitted and chopped
1 tablespoon hot red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon capers, with brine
1 cup dry white wine
In a small saucepan, combine 2 cups of the water, the kosher salt, brown sugar, peppercorns, and bay leaves and bring to a boil over high heat, stirring to dissolve the salt and sugar. Pour into a large pot or other container and add the remaining 4 quarts cool water. Stir to mix well, add the pork chops, cover, and refrigerate overnight.
Drain the chops and pat dry with paper towels. Season the pork on both sides with salt and pepper, then dredge in the flour.
In a 12-inch sauté pan, heat the olive oil over high heat until smoking. Add 3 chops to the pan and cook until dark golden brown on the first side, about 7 minutes. Turn over and cook until browned on the second side, about 4 minutes; then transfer to a plate and repeat with the other 3 chops.
Add the peppers, onion, olives, red pepper flakes and capers, and stir with a wooden spoon to loosen the brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Add the wine and bring to a boil. Lower the heat, place the pork chops in the pepper mixture, and simmer for 10 minutes (the pork should be cooked to 135 F).
Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the reserved onion tops, and serve.

But not anymore.
Using every trick in the book, the 24 interior design wizards assembled by the Society of the Arts (SOTA) for its biennial Designers Showhouse have worked powerful magic. They have pulled a sumptuously delightful, warm and inviting contemporary house out of a relic.
There's a lot to admire and learn here. A step into the foyer begins the tour.
Ethan Allen designer Hulya Akman took the once-cavernous entryway and made it a place to linger and relax.
She adopted a divide-and-conquer approach, splitting the foyer into two manageable spaces: A small welcoming area with a round table and chairs by the entry doors and a larger but infinitely cozy sitting area with a gorgeous view by the floor-to-ceiling window-doors.
Primarily, Akman explains, the intimacy is created by the color palette of cream and vaporous blue she chose and by lots and lots of fabric.
A look up reveals a swag with contrasting pelmets that adorns the crown molding over the doors. Then the eye naturally falls to catch the shirred-on-the-rod panels that frame them. She essentially swaddled the wall of glass and white wood in soft comfort.
She also softened the dark hardwood floor with two thick carpets -- a smaller Oriental near the entrance and a white area rug piped in complementary blue beneath the love seats and ottoman.
The space will invite tour guests to linger for a restoring cup of tea or hear the history of the house before continuing on the decorating tour, which the Society of the Arts produces to benefit the education endowment fund of the Allentown Art Museum.
What's often referred to as the Mosser mansion, the traditional Georgian structure was built by George Keck Mosser, grandson of James K. Mosser who, with the colorful Gen. Harry Trexler, founded the Lehigh Portland Cement Co. Hence, the cement as building material of choice. It is built on the site of George's grandfather's tannery business, now across from the Lehigh Valley Velodrome.
The nine-bedroom, 8,000-square-foot house is for sale and was most recently inhabited by John H. and Judith M. Body, now of South Whitehall Township.
All the designers who responded to SOTA's call for talent were given a space to transform this year, says Stuart Dubbs, director of publicity. Co-chairs Deb McGinley and Dot Ervin felt confident the colors would coordinate from room to room because creamy yellows and muted, light turquoise blue are so popular this year, Dubbs says.
Your Morning Call preview of the tour this week will take you through several of the master rooms in the house, including kitchen and bedrooms. Next week, we'll visit the occasional rooms, including the dens and the dreamy spa.
From the foyer, the tour route leads through a den into the kitchen. Lia P. Fraccaro, a designer and owner of House Splendid in Emmaus, says her biggest challenge here was working around the existing cabinetry. One floor-to-ceiling cupboard in the kitchen mirrors another in the adjoining pantry.
But the cabinets that frame the kitchen sink, dishwasher and stove were vintage 1950s maple and didn't coordinate very well, a common problem in many kitchens.
"I scrubbed them and then began sketching some ideas and it all came together," Fraccaro says.
She ultimately conferred upon the kitchen a country garden feeling, starting with the creamy yellow walls and blue ceiling. Crimson appliances contribute to a cozy feeling that's reinforced by coordinating fabric on the kitchen and pantry windows and on the lining of the skirt around the metal sink in the pantry.
A wine tasting "cave" is tucked behind the kitchen on the left and the planning room tucked just beyond the kitchen sink.
This little room once housed the washer and dryer, but Jane Meehan, owner of Real World Decorators in Allentown, turned it into a serendipitous space all painted the same crimson as the kitchen's appliances.
It was a happy coincidence, say Meehan and Fraccaro. They didn't plan it that way.
Meehan tried to make the room look larger by making everything the same color.
"It's the perfect place to sit and look out the window and plan parties," she says.
From the kitchen, you continue the tour up the back stairs to a little girl's room that almost compels you to giggle and say, "Ooooh, look!"
The checked fabric of the fanciful wall-draped bed canopy is neither pastel nor frothy but sophisticated and tasteful to the point of knowing whimsy. Yellow and blue dominate the walls and furnishings.
But it's the accessories that make the room here.
Designer Michelle Olson of M Interiors in Allentown says her biggest challenge -- after she pushed the electrician to his limit putting the chandelier in through the concrete walls and ceiling -- was tracking down lampshades she remembered from years ago. On the dresser and a corner floor lamp are gauzy petticoat lampshades she wound up making herself because the vendor she had known went out of business.
Sitting saucily on a wall fixture is a straw hat made specially to be a lampshade. It won't burn, she says.
A child-sized upholstered chair looks to be wearing a dress, replete with bow in the back.
Continuing the tour to another second-floor bedroom, we find that designers Laurie Liedel of Liedel Designs and Lisette Dell'Apa of First Impressions, both of Bethlehem, channeled their inner princess to transform the guest boudoir into "the room you always wanted as a little girl -- all grown up." The testament to their intentions is the lipstick-stained martini glass they've set on the glass-top table by the window.
Their biggest challenge was the former powder blue wall color of the room, Dell'Apa says. They went with yellow instead.
Both women had a bit of wall envy, Dell'Apa says, since other paint crews finished up in a day. She and Liedel did the painting themselves -- all four coats not including the tinted primer -- which Dell'Apa refers to as "the never-ending paint job."
The room's crowning glory is the gold-domed ceiling: It's concrete formed in what Liedel calls, "a lovely curve."
The room is warm from the inside out considering the warm yellows and golds accented with bits of mango-colored accessories, the gossamer canopy that floats like a halo around the four-poster bed, the textured silk at the windows, the lambswool rug at the hearth and the sisal rug on the floor.
The framed photo propped on the mantel is an extra special treasure. It's Dell'Apa's and Liedel's daughters, who were photographed on a spring afternoon blowing rose petals at the Rose Garden in Allentown. It's a reminder that personal treasures make a room.
"The room was a labor of love for us," Liedel says, "We wanted something elegant and lovely with beautiful things. We wanted to have fun with it."
The tour route goes from the princess room and into a master bedroom truly fit for reigning monarchs -- monarchs, who, as designers Gail Dunn, Jamie Leisy and Audra Hill of Accessories Etc. in Bethlehem thought, need to be able to retreat and relax.
The browns, sky blues and greens reflect the nature visible from the room's picture window. A bird theme also brings the outdoors in. The designers filled the room with bookcases because they imagined a couple that love quiet time. The rich muted tones continue through the master bath and dressing room.
After viewing the master bedroom suite, it's down the grand staircase for another view of the foyer and then onto the living room and dining room.
Designed by Eric Schmidt of New York City, formerly of Hellertown, the living room is very modern, in contrast to the rest of the house. He did a nice job bringing the copious woodwork up to a warm lustre. He and his crew cleaned and buffed it about 15 times, he says.
His biggest challenge was the volume of space in the room, which he filled with silk, linen and chenille furniture, a white baby grand piano and white cowhide rugs. Expecially piquant and intriguing is set of acrylic antlers over the mantel.
The dining room, decorated by Doneckers Fine Furniture in Ephrata, Lancaster County, features mostly classical elements with some bits of exaggeration that highlight the room's grand style.
No fewer than nine area landscapers had a hand in taming the outdoor elements of the SOTA house, including Phoebe Floral of Allentown, which turned the barn into an extension of SOTA's third floor gift boutique.
Next week: Tour the mansion's occasional rooms, including the spa room, kitchen keeping room and planning office, sitting rooms and the nanny command center.

Good Morning,
Today is quadruple witching. Index options expire at the open, most other June options expire at the close, and today is the last day to trade June futures.
Equity futures are down slightly to flat this morning following yesterday afternoon's completely unnatural bounce. And I don't say that lightly, it was not a generic move. I have watched the markets for many years, tic by tic, and can tell you that they are not the same markets that existed just a few years ago. So, is this some "new normal" that we are just going to have to get used to – wild HFT driven swings with constant game playing? No, the forces creating this action will be driven out, that is my belief, but it's going to take major change, and I think that change is coming.
What I see today in the overnight action is a small broadening formation that looks like a megaphone. The action over the past couple of days looks like a larger broadening formation. You can see the larger one on the 15 minute chart of DOW futures below left, and the smaller one on the 5 minute S&P futures chart below right:
What I had been tracking as a rising wedge was broken yesterday – yet the end of day bounce brought us back up to it. A channel doesn't fit this movement unless you give it a lot of room. The candles that were created yesterday look bearish pretty much across the board. We sit just below key overhead resistance at the SPX 1120ish area. Get over about 1125 and we're probably headed to 1140 or 1150. Fail to get over it and wave 3 of 3 is looming.
Keep in mind that today is Friday and thus Monday and its 90% odds on ramp job come next. Again, not a "market," more like a banker manipulated toy.
Speaking of banker manipulated toys; gold zoomed to a new all-time record last night now at $1,260. The P&F diagram and a triangle formation both have the same target of $1,310 an ounce.
The dollar is flat this morning, just above support at about 85.50. The Euro is down slightly.
There's a very important development occurring with the Emerging Markets ETF (EEM). It's just about to put in a "death cross" which is when the 50dma falls below the 200dma. You can see in the chart below that prices moved right up into those moving averages and got stopped – a cross is occurring now. This is an ominous sign for those believing that emerging markets are going to pull the globe up and out. If you go back and look at these crosses, they are quite bearish and odds are high that significant further declines occur once this cross has occurred. Below is a one month chart of EEM showing this cross:
Some of the major financials also have already produced death crosses, like JPM and GS. Others are about to as well – bearish.
With no economic data today, I'll keep this short and wish you a great weekend. Emerging Market death cross? Where are those millions of Chinese consumers when you need them?

Interesting article in the NYT by Adam Liptak. "Donald Trump Could Threaten U.S. Rule of Law, Scholars Say." I read this and I go, no shit. It took you until June to figure this out? I guess only some lawyers are hot-tempered and Jeffersonian. "Be sure to wear a brown shirt so I know who to punch in our street brawls," is what I was saying, like nine months ago. I could have had a baby in the time it took Adam Liptak to figure out that Donald Trump could threaten the rule of law. Anyway, slow and methodical Adam Liptak is now helpfully pointing out to the citizens of the world that Donald Trump could threaten the rule of law.Of course, I'd already seen and read the article. I read The New York Times. Does anyone blog NYT things more than I do? I chose not to blog it. First, every word of the headline annoyed me. That's not to say that I turn away from what annoys me. Quite the contrary.
I notice he only cites Republicans and libertarians in his article. That's one of my favorite rhetorical moves! Find somebody on the other side who agrees with you, and cite the shit out of them. If Al Sharpton ever said, "Obama is an ass," I'd be citing Al Sharpton as a smart thinker. "Even the Reverend Al Sharpton, who has studied the words of Christ, says that Obama is an ass." And all the judges would be going "point," except for the French guy going "touché."
In fact, an obvious riposte popped into my head immediately: All Presidents threaten the rule of law! That's supposed to cause you to understand the levels of my annoyance at the headline. I don't like the "could," since mere possibility is already built into the word "threaten." Any governmental power can be abused, so there is always a threat. Don't back off and portray the threat as mere potential. The threat is omnipresent.
Let me just quote James Madison, Federalist 51:
If men were angels, no government would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary. In framing a government which is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this: you must first enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place oblige it to control itself.The other level of annoyance is, as my riposte makes clear, that the headline singles out Donald Trump. What about Barack Obama? What about Hillary Clinton? But I settled down and read Liptak's article and Obama's name did come up:
Republican officials have criticized Mr. Obama for what they have called his unconstitutional expansion of executive power. But some legal scholars who share that view say the problem under a President Trump would be worse.So, I didn't blog it yesterday, but — prodded by Saint Croix — I still like my original gut-reaction snark: All Presidents threaten the rule of law!
"I don't think he cares about separation of powers at all," said Richard Epstein, a fellow at the Hoover Institution who also teaches at New York University and the University of Chicago.
President George W. Bush "often went beyond what he should have done," Professor Epstein said. "I think Obama's been much worse on that issue pretty consistently, and his underlings have been even more so. But I think Trump doesn't even think there's an issue to worry about. He just simply says whatever I want to do I will do."
Mr. Trump has boasted that he will use Mr. Obama's actions as precedent for his own expansive assertions of executive power.

(Ce) que la poésie raconte or, (What) Poetry Narrates Conference
nirnaeth on Mar 21 2008 | Filed under: Uncategorized
The Middle Ages, and Poetry as Narrative
Some say that poetry tells no stories. Or at least that it is not as poetry that it tells them. How to account, then, for the feeling that the words of a poem structure themselves in the shape of a latent or possible narrative ? As medievalists, we cannot conceive of poetry in opposition to narrative, or even as distinct from it. In this regard we follow the traces of medieval writers who, when faced with the idea of poetry, when they attempted an ars poetica, did so through the optic of narrative.
What are the narrative possibilities and capacities of lyric forms? In what ways do narrative poems that claim to be based upon other poems develop, cite, or allude to these foundational lyric texts, and ground their own poetic nature in them? What can the relationships of lyric to narrative tell us about the very ways in which we, as human beings, understand our relationship to time ?
On Friday April 11, 2008 we will consider these and other questions, interrogating the fluid boundary between lyric and narrative.

Video trasncript below:
The Carlu, Toronto, March 25 & 26th, 2011
Manmeet Singh, Real Estate Investor
Manmeet Singh: It inspired me in a way that whatever point in your life you are, you have a hope and [everything] and if you take a proper action you can succeed in life.
Shirley Smith, Real Estate Investor
Shirley Smith: People here seem to be pretty knowledgeable on and have a lot of good information, I think the set up is really good as well. So quick segments and then moving on to the next topic, it's really well set up.
Don Campbell, Speaker, REIN
Don Campbell: Well during that show, I could speak at this event because the quality of Canadian Real Estate Magazine, that's the number one thing. I knew that the quality of the readership was strong. I knew they were actually committed and that's what I'd like to be able to do, have an impact on people who are actually taking action, rather than people who are just dreaming and I am finding that they have decided is just like that.
Phillip McKernan, Speaker, Author
Phillip McKernan: I was really impressed with the quality of the location you put on and the room and it's just a smart very very well done.
Sunil Tulsiani, Speaker, PIC
Sunil Tulsiani: The reason why I am here today is there is that huge amount of quality of people that have come in today. I found that the difference between other shows and today's show and investor forum show, what I found is the attendees there is a quality difference. And it's also good speakers and other delegates who are here I can network with them and talk with them and build this joint venture if possible. So joint venturing, meeting with quality people and possibly investors and members from my club is very very important to do.
Peter Kinch, Speaker, Author
Peter Kinch: Of course Canadian Real Estate Magazine attracts a large number of real estate investors across Canada and people that I might not necessarily talk to you on a monthly basis at Radio __ I speak at, so have the opportunity to present and speak at this forum. It has been a great opportunity for me to share some of the things that I feel are important to all real estate investors.
Scott McGillivray, Speaker, Host of HGTV's Income Property
Scott McGillivray: I am coming here to the event today because there are so many people who want to get involved with real estate investing and I want to make sure that they have all the information. The other thing too is to get people to take action.
Testimonial, Julio Muziera & Wendy Gallegos, Real Estate Investors

Friday Update: Pat Brewer of Charlotte is the winner of our random drawing for a copy of the book. Thanks to all who entered, and come back next week, when we'll do another online review and giveaway.
Ready for a new feature? How about a video cookbook peek, review and giveaway!
"The Dinnertime Survival Guide," by Sally Kuzemchak (Oxmoor House, $24.95).
You're having trouble getting dinner on the table for a family? We hear you. It's a common call for help from readers with kids (or even the ones with kids).
If catchy, well-organized and simple is your mantra, trust the Cooking Light people to put a book together that meets all of those criteria. Kuzemchak's book is packed with photos, very useful tips, and list breakdowns like "Top Dinner Survival Kitchen Gadgets." Chapters are themed: "I Have Zero Time," "I'm On a Diet, They're Not," "I Can't Afford Healthy Food," etc.
Photos? Lots. Take a look at my book-flip video, above. The recipes are mostly the ones you expect, with some change-ups, like a sweet and tart kale salad twist and a frozen ravioli hack with pan-roasted grape tomatoes. Recipes all include nutrition information, servings with a translation (example: "serving size: 1/4 of ravioli and 1/2 cup tomatoes") and cooking time.
OK, ready for the giveaway? Email me at email@example.com with your name, town and contact information, and include "Dinnertime Survival" in the subject line. I'll pick a winner at random at 9 a.m. Friday.
And here's a sample recipe . . .
Rosemary Oven-Fried Chicken
Hands-on time: 15 minutes. Total time: 40 minutes.
1/4 cup nonfat buttermilk
2 tablespoons Dijon

1/3 cup finely chopped dry-roasted cashews
3/4 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
Cooking spray
4 teaspoons honey
PREHEAT oven to 425 degrees. Combine buttermilk and mustard in a shallow dish, stirring with a whisk. Add chicken to the buttermilk mixture, turning to coat.
HEAT a small skillet over medium-high heat. Add panko to pan; cook 3 minutes or until golden, stirring frequently. Combine panko, cashews and the next 4 ingredients (through ground red pepper), in a shallow dish. Remove chicken from the buttermilk mixture; dredge in panko mixture.
ARRANGE chicken on wire rack coated with cooking spray in a foil-lined jelly-roll pan. Bake at 425 degrees for 25 minutes or until chicken is done. Drizzle each cutlet with 1 teaspoon honey.

Diplomacy and International Institutions
On Saturday, the Arab League suspended Syria. No doubt this was a difficult decision for a body that, although it was the creation of the British Foreign Office has stood—at least rhetorically—for Arabism. Syria, the so-called "beating heart of Arab nationalism," is not Libya. Still, the move and possibly economic and political sanctions are an important step in trying to either bring Assad to heel or end his regime altogether. I am profoundly skeptical of the former and, since almost the very beginning of the Syrian uprising, saw tremendous strategic benefit (to the United States) in the latter. The question is now that the Arab League has taken an important step in further isolating Damascus: What next?
Syria watchers, human rights activists, foreign policy realists, and others have been engaged in a rather detailed debate about what to do about Syria, but for all the ink spilled on the issue, there haven't been any creative ideas. The advocates of the so-called "right to protect" principle, which gives the international community sanction to violate the sovereignty of another state if civilians are at great risk, have called Syria "tragic," but have maintained that "Syria is different from Libya." Indeed, it is. On the eve of Operation Unified Protector, about 1,000 people had died in the fighting between Libyan rebels and Qadhafi loyalists. As of last Friday, the United Nations reported that Bashar al Assad has killed two and a half times that many Syrians.
For their part, realists argue that we are over-stretched and that hastening the downfall of Assad—as odious as he may be—will likely destabilize the region. The result, they say, would be a further American commitment to the Middle East that Washington simply cannot afford, sapping U.S. power and making it harder for it to deal with important foreign policy issues like the rise of China and the financial crisis in Europe. Fair enough. China poses a new challenge to U.S. power in the Pacific and the economic woes of what is, collectively, the world's largest economy is a strategic problem for the United States. Yet none of this has anything to do with Syria where, if nothing is done to prevent further slaughter there will be consequences for the stability of Turkey, Lebanon, and Iraq. It seems this is precisely what the Assad regime is aiming for through its renewed sponsorship of PKK attacks on Turkish forces and its ongoing skullduggery in Lebanon.
Apologists for the Assad regime claim that Syria is, indeed, the beating heart of Arab nationalism, which should give Westerners pause when contemplating a more forceful response to the Assad regime. They argue instead that Damascus is best swayed through negotiation. I am the first one to warn that the United States and Europe should be mindful of its history in the Middle East (see chapters 5-7 of The Struggle for Egypt), but should the international community use some hoary and romantic notions about Damascus being central to a vague set of ideas sometimes called "Arabism," as an excuse for inaction? The Arab League no longer believes so. Do I even need to address the absurdity of continuing to advocate negotiations? The Turks, despite all the influence and goodwill Assad-Erdogan family vacations could buy, have been unable to convince Assad to stand down and undertake reforms. Most recently, Damascus promptly ignored all the commitments it made to the Qatari foreign minister, who was spearheading an Arab League initiative to resolve the Syrian crisis through talks with the Syrian opposition.
My point in going through all of this is to suggest that the excuses people have made to do nothing as Assad snuffs out the Syrian uprising 12, 15, 20, 25 people a day are actually the best reasons for taking a more forceful approach—even force (there, I said it)—to bring the immediate crisis to an end. It seems that the United States is moving ever more closely to this position. On November 7, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton gave a speech on the Arab uprisings at NDI. There was much to like about the speech, though some of it read more like an inside-the-Beltway blue ribbon commission than a major policy address. Still, whether intentional or not, it seems that Clinton's words, specifically her vow that "America and the international community will continue to increase pressure on [Assad] and his brutal regime," could serve as the basis for a more robust Syria policy.
One can only hope. Assistant Secretary of State for Near East Affairs Jeffrey Feltman's announcement before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee that the administration was pursuing additional sanctions on the regime and proposed to send international observers to Syria to "deter violence" was not exactly what I had in mind. Perhaps Feltman's testimony was part of the Obama administration's much ballyhooed penchant for playing "the long game," but I am not sure too many Bosnian Muslims would tell Syrians to take comfort that international observers might be on the way. How many of them were massacred under the watchful eyes of Europeans sent there to deter Serbs from massacring Bosnians?
Here is the bottom line: When is enough, enough? Is it a coincidence that Assad and his clique have intensified the violence in recent days. They are not dumb. Although Clinton's words may have given them pause, the official policy of sanctions and possibly observers is interpreted in Damascus as saying that Assad actually has little to fear from the United States and international community. It is time to prove him wrong.

I am trying to design a site with a couple color schemes. I am looking for a way to make color schemes that match mathematically.
For example, I know that
#FF0000 matches perfectly with
#00FF00 and
#0000FF. Is there some kind of equation to get, for example, the yellow version of
#509cc0? I also have the RGB values and the HSL values on hand.

An absolute negation needs the proof of the positive to be certain?
Absolute negation: "You will never be anything but a drunk."
To be certain, requiring no faith, the positive, observing the rest of the life, have had to been witnessed. Yet, how could it have? It has yet to exist in the circumstance.
The same can be said about Atheism?
Are Atheist Certain?

Perhaps it only bothers those of us who cannot control the "sound" of the reading voice in our heads. Mine definitely yells when it reads all caps. In fact, I just tried to force the head voice to read both sentences of your previous comment in the same tone. It was difficult, if not impossible.
Also, I read fast but paragraphs of all caps slow me down and trip me up while reading for some reason.
Odds: the chances or likelihood of something happeningor being the case.
Does being indoctrinated into Christianity guarantee the odds of a person will be a christian?
If that is the case, then everyone who grew up in the church, should still be in the church then, right? No? Then how did they make it out? Are they the exception?
If they are....
It appears the argument that growing up religious makes you religious has some exceptions. Then if that is the case, then the proposition, ..., is no longer true unless you qualify it; which is like it not be true because you have to explain the exceptions.
Exceptions do not make rules. That's why they're called exceptions.
Lets substitute this definition given here for "odds."
"Does being indoctrinated into Christianity guarantee the chances or likelihood of a person to be a christian?" What does guaranteeing odds mean?
Let's say though for argument's sake that what is guaranteed is certainty is meant here. Indoctrination into Christianity makes you with absolute certainty a Christian.
Then what follows is still a non sequitur: Because everyone "who grew up in a church" would be indoctrinated and be a Christian this would not preclude them from shedding their belief in some future date and adopt another religion, or do the wise thing and forswear the whole thing.
Permanence is not a necessary condition of indoctrination. Logically your reasoning is invalid. And semantically it is hogwash really.
Hey Bob,
My favorite line:
If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't. And contrarywise, what is, it wouldn't be. And what it wouldn't be, it would. You see? --- Alice In Wonderland
- kk
I would have to ask the same about you, are you certain? Assuming you are a "believer in a god", how in the world can you be so sure you have the right one? Hundreds of gods worshiped by many different cultures over the centuries, and you seriously think you got it right? Or, are you just playing the odds because you can't sleep at night otherwise, is life just too difficult without some invisible god looking out for you on your journey?
I'm as certain there are NO GODS as I am certain there's not a pink elephant in my living room, and of that I'm pretty freaking certain. Now there's just you and your problem, good luck with that.
"I am absolutely certain I do not KNOW IF there is a god (or gods) or Not! Thus, I AM an AGNOSTIC!"
Why is it you do not know? How do you know something? Is it through reasoning? If the logic works out, do you know then? Is it through experience? Do you have to see it or go through it to believe it? Can you assume and know based on that assumption? Is it true that your knowing is based on you believing it to be true? Your belief is your qualifier, right?
A man walks into a shop. as he enters through the door he bumps a lady. The lady smacks the man and walks off. The man walks up to the counter and tells the salesman what happened. The salesman says, I see you met my wife. The man tells the salesman he did not know that was his wife. The salesman says to know his wife is to love her.
In that scenario, the man didn't know that was the salesman's wife till the idea was communicated to him and he was able to believe in the fact. From that moment on, he knew the man's wife. Or at least, he knew of her. Absent the notification, the belief wouldn't exist and the knowing wouldn't exist.
So then, what do you mean when you say, I am certain I do not know...? I think you mean that you are unable to believe. Which leads us to evidence.
"I am also absolutely POSITIVE there is NOT sufficent factual evidence (ZERO!) any god, or gods are real! Therefore, I AM ALSO an ATHEIST!"
Sufficent: enough; adequate
Factual: concerned with what is actually the case rather than interpretations ofor reactions to it.
Evidence: the available body of facts or information indicating whether a belief or proposition is true or valid.
Indicate: be a sign or symptom of; strongly imply: admit to or state briefly:
First, am I to deduce from your proposition that you depend on evidence to foster a belief? Then is it the case that evidence is argued to mean many different cases. Meaning, do lawyers use the same evidence to argue for a defendants guilt and innocence?
As we all are aware of, I assume, courts don't require proof because proof of the crime dissipates when the crime does. Proof is observable. Evidence is used to point to the supposed reality.
And if that is the case, your beliefs are based on your desire to want to believe.
The bible is full of empirical statements. Therefore, it has facts. Those facts only point to the actual reality that exist too. That reality is evident as the bible says, "For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:"
Yet, if your belief is based on evidence, then how can you claim atheism? Don't atheist claim to know. Knowing leaves no doubt, right?
"And I am an ATHEIST ACTIVIST!"
So what are you really an activist of?
do lawyers use the same evidence to argue for a defendants guilt and innocence?
Lawyers selectively choose from the same pile of available evidence, and some evidence holds more weight than others. Hearsay and eyewitness testimony, (particularly copies of translations of copies of translations of 2000 year old hearsay of eyewitness testimony) for example, is not as reliable as DNA evidence or clear video footage identifying the defendant. And if no evidence can be provided, (like for the proposed existence of any of the thousands of deities including Yahweh) the case is simply dismissed.
Are you certain 2+2 doesn't equal 5? Are you certain a circle doesn't have four 90 corners?
2+2=4 only in certain circumstances.
two cats plus two more cats equals four cats. But it also equals 16 legs, 8 eyes and countless fur balls.
A circle may have 90 corners. Draw a straight line. Now, is that really a straight line? The earth is an oblate spheroid yet when looking down at the ground under your feet, does it appear round? If you measure length of the ground, how would you calculate it? Using an equation to measure an oblate spheroid?
Truth is absolute and exclusive.


text: Joseph-Marie Vien presented this sketch in a six-part submission for pre-selection for the 1743 Prix de Rome. Based on the unresolved nature of the paintings, it was a surprise to many that Vien was deemed eligible for competition and eventually won the prize. While this was reflective of the declining state of the Prix, with its unfashionable privileging of history painting at the expense of the pastorals and allegories that had become fashionable, the award was prophetic. Vien would become France's most highly awarded painter and its leading teacher, and one of the earliest exponents of the Neo-classical style. The subject of Vien's painting suggests something of this historical context. Joshua, a disciple of Moses and his successor, leads the Israelite invasion of Canaan and the Promised Land. During a final, fraught battle for the town of Gibeon, Joshua prays for extended daylight so as to assure what would become a great victory.
