This problem happened on my wife's X60 a week or so ago. The battery went from working fine to reporting an error and not working at all.

I had a little bit of trouble getting Lenovo to recognize it, but once they did, they shipped out a brand new one next day air for free. Not bad at all.
I like it. My take on the idea:

1) Make the reward be badges, and the number of badges be based on your weekly rating. (Higher ratings could award the raid-teir badges)
2) Have the boss selection be random, with 20-30 bosses available. Each boss would scale automatically with your rating. This would be the hard part to implement, but could be done. This would ensure this is challenging for a team no matter what their gear level. A theoretical cap would exist, but would probably be above the top raid teir in terms of difficulty before it became impossible.
3) Like arenas, you have to do say 5 encounters a week to be eligible for the badges awarded at the end of the week. Perhaps put a max of 10 encounters a week on a given team to prevent rating selling, etc.
4) If the badges/week for a given rating is tuned right this could be a fun, easy reward, but not so OP no one wants to run heroics.
4a) Optionally there could be a few pieces of badge gear only obtainable with a personal PvE arena rating, but these would have to be not too great / powerful.

"I just moved into a new apartment and have been reading about all of the new power strips out there, especially the green ones. I was wondering if you had any suggestions about which "green "power strips are out there with decent joules ratings. And when I say green, I mean power strips that have the remotes or switches to turn off all electricity flowing to certain plugs and with at least 2 plugs that are always on. I was looking specifically at sub $50 because I will need two, but if that is not possible I could be convinced otherwise. Thanks!"
