Beloved boardgame Settlers of Catan comes to iPhone | iPhone Atlas - CNET Reviews

I like how iPhone games have so much in common with 80's DOS games. I am now spending too much time playing Settlers of Catan. Takes a while to work out what is going on (and what the point is) but now I want to keep playing it.

Steps to Ressurection:

Photos:

Unfortunately, the Apple logo is erased in the process, but I%u2019d say it%u2019s a worthwhile sacrifice for the outstanding results.  But we%u2019re not finished yet! We still have to repair the front screen which was severely cracked.

LCD Repair:

The LCD repair is a slightly more delacate process since we have to remove the entire front of the device and expose its circuitry innards.  Nonetheless, it%u2019s not too complex and the image below walks you through the screw removal process.

Materials:

  • Replacement iPhone LCD
  • Compressed Air ( or bike pump) 
  • E-xacto blade ( or something flat and thin)
  • Small Phillips screwdriver
  • Suction cup

With this detailed tutorial, just about anyone can refurbish their scratched and damaged gadgets.  It%u2019s pretty cheap too, the 3M cleaning kit costs less than$15 and the screen replacement is less than $10.  So what are you waiting for?  Go polish your neglected gadgets!  Oh, and be sure to subscribe so you don%u2019t miss out on future posts.

Depression’s Upside - NYTimes.com

Darwin, of course, was wrong; his recurring fits didn’t prevent him from succeeding in science. Instead, the pain may actually have accelerated the pace of his research, allowing him to withdraw from the world and concentrate entirely on his work. His letters are filled with references to the salvation of study, which allowed him to temporarily escape his gloomy moods. “Work is the only thing which makes life endurable to me,” Darwin wrote and later remarked that it was his “sole enjoyment in life.

Working Girl

Enjoying Film 4's Eighties series - watched Working Girl last night, Melanie Griffiths with some of the biggest heair and shoulder pads known to (wo)mankind. The theme tune is pretty good too, if strangely pseudo-spiritual - with images of Wall St and NYC overlayed by the line 'come the new Jerusalem'. Maybe that's how it seemed back then.

Sutton Hoo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I had never heard of this archeological discovery in Suffolk, but it is amazing. It has been described as being from 'the margins of history and mythology' which is a lovely image.
