How can I fix Ubuntu so we can play our favorite games again?
Whenever I try to run any SDL games, I get the following error. Despite checking online, I haven't found any solutions to it. Unfortunately this means some of our favorite games have stopped working, and my son is showing signs of gamer angst. [more inside]
Help me keep an orchestra amused
I'm one of the tour managers for a university orchestra tour. We've got a symphony orchestra of 70 students mostly aged 19-21, and we're packing them into a coach and driving them to the Netherlands, which will take a fairly long time. How can I force them to have fun, ideally while they're on the coach? [more inside]

Most engaging Android smartphone games?

I need an app launcher, for a single app, not the popular kind.
I make Windows videogames, and my latest engine doesn't let you select screen resolutions. I could change it so it does, but I'd rather make a small program that first lets you choose resolution (and set fullscreen and such), then launches the game app. But then wait (I said in my head), hasn't someone already created this launcher tool? Please help me out. Have they? [more inside]

What is this card game in the Whist family that I used to play as a kid?
When I was growing up, my family and I played a card game we called Bid Bridge. I've tried looking online to find out the rules and scoring but I just keep finding similar games (Whist, Napoleon, etc) that are almost-but-not-quite the same. How do you play this game? [more inside]

Nice cat collection you got there, shame if anything happened to it.
I have decided to acquire a new iPhone. However, I've been playing Neko Atsume, and have gotten pretty far along in collecting cats and cat-related objects. Is there a way to back up my game progress so I can pick up on the new phone where I left off instead of having to start all over? [more inside]
Multiplayer (non-scrabble) iOS games, 2015-style
Two guys stuck in a hotel room. Two IOS devices. Looking for games, head to head and/or co-op, that can keep us amused. Requirements? Looking for non-word-based or connect-four-ish games. We burned several hours on Trenches and enjoyed it, but got bored after that. Ideas?
Help me create a fake field of scientific inquiry!
As I mentioned in a previous AskMe I am a professor who has been developing a long-running, semi-realistic simulation inspired by ARGs in which the players will be challenged to make many business decisions over the course of several months in an evolving scenario. Without going into too much detail, the premise is that the students have been hired by a genius inventor who has created an exciting breakthrough technology and is interested in commercializing it. The name for the technology turns up nothing in Google (because it is fake!), but we want to make it look like a real thing. Help me figure out how! [more inside]

Has anyone made a hard science fiction video game?
Are there any good games that are based on hard science fiction, such as discussed on Project Rho? There are a lot of great SF books that draw on relativity, vast distances and solid physics to make their stories of interstellar warfare and commerce exciting (e.g. Charlie Stross, Alaistair Reynolds, Benford, Westerfield, etc.) but all video games, mainstream or indie, seem to be much more Star Wars-style science fantasy. Are there any exceptions? FTL is the closest I can think of, and that is pushing it...

The Lottery, Hiring Gamblers and Games of Chance
I've noticed, in the last few months, a new disclaimer added to the old disclaimer at end of commercials for the lottery. The old disclaimer says for entertainment purposes only. The new disclaimer says something like the lottery is not to be used for investment purposes. That made me wonder if people ever hire professional gamblers to play and win on their behalf. Does that happen, and if it does, how would it work?
10th birthday party, fantasy theme: what fun ideas do you have?
My son is having his 10th birthday party later this month and the theme is 'fantasy' (witches, goblins, wizards, dragons, elves etc). What are some fun games/activities that you recommend for the day?
Can you recommend any games for Mac similar to Myst?
That's basically the question. I'm not a gamer AT ALL but decades ago I enjoyed two games, Ceremony of Innocence and Myst and haven't played since. I'm now in the possession of a new three day old 13 " MacBook Pro and thought I'd take advantage of the retina graphic aspect of it with a visually stunning game. Games with riddles and puzzles and stories like the above, the first one in particular are the only ones I've enjoyed. Do you know of any others?
Great fiction in online game form
I'm looking for some short, easy, free, browser-based online games to play-- ideally ones that approximate narrative fiction in some way (well-defined plotline, focused exploration of a particular theme, etc.). The two I've got so far are One Chance and Every Day the Same Dream. What else should I be trying? [more inside]

Can I get more than one app to run in kiosk mode on a Microsoft Surface

Jonathan Blow - Braid - so what is deep about this game ????
I've watching some vids where blow explains he spent a lot of time doing something deep in the game but hardly any players understood these deep concepts. But he doesn't tell what these deep ideas are!! What are they? I just see a simplistic puzzle platformer, what am I missing ???
Games like Guess My Word?
I learned about Guess My Word on here and now I'm hooked. I also learned about Doge 2048 here and I love it, but it takes too long. Same thing with Must Pop Words (although I didn't learn about it here). Suggestions for games that take about the same amount of time/talent/thought as Guess My Word?

Please help us be better at collaborative gaming
My partner and I are playing Borderlands 2 and World of Warcraft (WoW) together, which is great fun, but we are sort of terrible at combat. He's never done collaborative gaming (but has played a lot of Borderlands) and I haven't played games in years (but I used to play a lot of WoW). [more inside]
I want to watch really calm things.
Give me super placid media to engage with. Relaxing, tranquil, serene. TV, movies, and video games are all fine. Some examples would be Bee and PuppyCat, anything by Studio Ghibli and Knytt respectively. To be clear, however: I don't want stuff I can engage with mindlessly. I want stuff that I can pay attention to and follow along with and are interesting or humorous or even a teeny bit dramatic, but which are pleasurably slow-paced. [more inside]
Flash game about a female spy around WWI?
Some years ago I played a Flash game set around the time of WWI. You played a female spy, moved around a house & its basement, and picked up objects to use. Anybody remember what game this was, or the author's name? Thanks.
How do I free up my phone for more games?
I love puzzle games, like The Room, Room 2, Monument Valley, Tiny Bang Theory, Botanicula, all those kinds of things (I have, in fact, gotten many recommendations from others' previous AskMes). The thing is, these games all add up memory-wise. I have finished them once, but know that I will enjoy returning to them in the future after I've forgotten some of the bits. How do I move them somewhere else to free up memory in the meantime? Or can I just delete them and download them again later? [more inside]
What games would you recommend to stock at a mountain lodge rental?

Giant numbers (Ex: how many primes are smaller than the largest known?)
Many sites say that the largest known prime is "2^57,885,161 − 1, a number with 17,425,170 digits." Given this and well known research about the density of primes, I think it's at least possible to estimate the number of primes between 1 and 2^57,885,161 − 1. But I don't know how to do this myself. I really want the answer to this one (the order of magnitude at least), but I've got lots of these, and I'd ideally like more cool ones. :) [more inside]

Fun baby-shower me
I am looking for ideas for a (fun!) baby shower game for my boss who is expecting. The shower is happening in a restaurant with a small group of co-workers so it can't be too involved or outlandish. There's also that whole I-work-with-you atmosphere that makes things that I would normally think of for friends seem strange. Would be thrilled to see if anyone has suggestions. Thanks in advance.

The chart is beginning to look up and there is a big inverse Head n Shoulder if you look back to a 2 yr chart. HMMMM ...is this Antares question nearing resolution? Don't want to be late to the party. I know there are at least 3 other folks on this board. Whats Up?
Sentiment: Buy
Hey Clamdigger. There is a party to be had around here? : ). It seems every time I post the stock tanks, so I lay low. We are still waiting on the static fire test on the launch pad, which I figure will happen about the same time we land on Mars. In the meantime, ORB is producing satelittes as quickly as M&Ms are putting out their product. That's good ,I suppose. Good to hear from you...

People who are successful embrace the idea that the rent is due every day. They welcome the challenge. They remain humble, knowing that whatever they did yesterday isn't enough to last them forever, and they remain hungry, knowing that whatever they've accomplished in their past shouldn't restrict them to what new heights they can achieve in their future.

The Contra Costa County Spare the Air Resource Team is working to keep the air clean in Contra Costa with the "Be Idle-Free" outreach campaign. The project began as a pilot with three schools in 2012, expanded throughout the county, and is now being implemented in partnership with other resource teams as the Idle Free Bay Area campaign.
Drivers can save money, reduce air pollution, and help everyone breathe easier just by turning a key! The message is simple: Turn off your car engine if you'll be sitting for more than 30 seconds at a car wash, drive-thru, or pick-up spot. You'll save gas and money and help Spare the Air! Please consider taking the Idle Free Pledge!
If your school or organization would like to become involved, or you would like to schedule a presentation to your group, please contact Stephanie Anderson via English and Spanish.
The team also has an ongoing project with TransitandTrails.org to encourage local community groups to use the website to plan trips to the great outdoors using public transit. Participating organizations have included a Boys & Girls Club, community centers, and volunteers for the East Bay Regional Park District. Watch a video of the Boys & Girls Club's first excursion. Senior and youth groups are particularly encouraged to participate. If you would like to be considered for participation with your club or organization, contact Stephanie Anderson via

Steady return in a tough economy
Those seeking a solid return on investment should look to the commercial and industrial property sector.
According to Improvon's, Business Development Executive, Grant Lewington, commercial and industrial property in South Africa is largely held in JSE listed funds, with a small component of the sector held in private hands. "Improvon is one of the private owners," says Lewington. The company owns a blue chip portfolio of industrial properties in some of the country's most desirable industrial nodes.
Location is very important when it comes to return on investment over time. A node must have good access and visibility. "Moreover, one needs to think of where the node is headed in the future," Lewington advises. "Is it likely to undergo any major change due to legislative or demographic shifts? Is there any reason that the node may degrade over time? Research into such questions is vital to ensure that the investment will be realised over time, and that the node is desirable not only at the present time, but going forward," he continues.
Investment in South Africa's property sector is largely dependent on the economic cycle, as this directs where people invest their money. While the majority of investment into JSE listed properties is in the retail and commercial property space, the economic climate makes industrial property the most attractive option. "The current economy has caused a decline in investment into retail and commercial property. Industrial property is good choice in such a climate because it promises steady growth over time – without factories and warehouses the country's economy would certainly collapse," reports Lewington.
In addition, investment into industrial property offers a number of other benefits. Industrial property is less complicated and more cost effective to develop. Moreover, whereas retail and commercial property owners are faced with multiple tenants to deal with, industrial property owners generally work with only one tenant per building – reducing the risk associated with the investment. "Of course, with the lower risk is a slightly lower reward, as is the case with any investment," Lewington admits, adding that in the current climate, the reduction in risk is well worth it.
Yet how does an organisation such as Improvon attract tenants to the market? "Most importantly, tenants will be attracted by the offering," states Lewington. "Most tenants are seeking a turnkey solution that will minimise the capital they have to outlay. To this end, they are looking to the developer or landlord to provide solutions around infrastructure, storage, data cabling and green issues. Tenants want to move in and start working immediately, putting capital into their actual business rather than the building they're renting"
It also goes back to location. "Of course, the right location with easy access makes a building attractive to potential clients," Lewington concludes.
Potential seen in Industrial Property Sector
Compared particularly to the retail market, less so the office sector, there is a growing view in the market that the industrial property sector is worthy of a more detailed assessment. ... Full story

This generation I've chosen the X360. The reason is because it is cost effective. I have kids, they can really do damage to a game. No matter how well you train them, or show them how to handle DVD Discs (or any type), they will eventually get scratched, broken (yes broken), lost or stolen (relatives are the worst kind). So when the mod 1st came out for the X360, I jumped for joy :).
Not only will I be able to buy originals and keep them safe, but my kids will never be able to destroy them again. I can make as many copies of the games they destroy, damage, or lose, without the having to worry about replacing an original title I purchased. Now some of you might think that's not right, but hey when you have bills to pay, a family to feed, a house and car to maintain..etc.. things get tight. I personally don't have the money to afford every game that the kids or I want. So I'll rent them and maybe I'll buy the one that they like the most. Once I buy the game. They never get their hands on the original. I'll then make a copy for them. So, when it gets damaged, lost, or stolen (it will happen), I can make another copy and everyone is happy.
I do shop around for bargains. I found lots of X360 games for the cheap. My goal is to collect every X360 Original title, but not pay full price for them. So when a game is newly released, I'll wait until the price drops really low then go get it. Or I'll barter and trade for a game. Some of you can afford to purchase any game that you want. That's good for you. I can not so I do what I must.
Some friends of mine had several PS3s, Xbox360s, HDTvs etc.. They would buy the PS3 version of the same games instead of the X360. I've asked them why would they buy the PS3 version of the same game instead of X360. They stated " We like it better on the PS3". OK, not problem, but not cost effective. They returned home one day to find all of their items STOLEN. They we robbed. The cops were called, but they never found their items. All of their original PS3 games were gone, along with the systems. The X360 was also gone with the games. The two Hdtv's were also stolen. No insurance. To cover the stolen property. Now if they had a modded X360 with the copied games and they got stolen, the lost wouldn't be as bad.
I try to make backups of everything disc and computer related, just in case.

A Leg To Stand On
He's been performing on one leg for more than three decades now, and this Thursday, Ian Anderson leads Jethro Tull into the Jones Beach stage. He recently came out of the wood to take a phone call from Ian D'Giff:
What's the story with the one-legged thing?
It actually came about when I was playing in the first few weeks of Jethro Tull in the Marquee Club in London. I used to play harmonica and I would stand on one leg and wave the other around or put it on my knee. I don't know why I did it, it just felt good. I was in India a few years back and the all of journalists asked me: "Why are you copying and being disrespectful to our god Krishna?" I didn't know what they meant until someone showed me a likeness of Krishna playing the flute on one leg. I was astonished. As far as deities go, I'm a very minor one, however popular I may be to some people. I'm not really in the god class. I mean, Krishna is clearly one of the most popular Hindu gods.
You don't drink and have never touched drugs. Kind of goes against type, huh?
I haven't done the things that are probably called drugs, from marijuana through to heroin. I'm the kind of guy who has what's called an addictive personality. Chances are, for me, that it would become a major problem. I don't want to mess around with that stuff until I think I'm probably going to die anyway. Then, push the crack cocaine my way, I'll give it a try.

The five-star defensive tackle was right on both measures, but even he was surprised it happened on the first snap of the game.
"I don't think anybody expected it, I didn't expect it," Bigelow said after the game. "We ran the stunt, it opened up perfectly, so I executed."
And Browne felt it as he was sacked on the very first play, though Bigelow took caution knowing it was his future signal caller he was hunting.
"I never planned on hurting anyone at this game," he said. "Especially not Max, so I did pull up."
Browne finished the game 4-of-7 for 52 yards and a touchdown. He was sacked three times.
As for Bigelow, an Elkton (Md.) Tri-State Christian product, he set out to "put Delaware and Maryland on the map." The stat sheet after the game says he only made two tackles, one for a 10-yard loss, plus a sack, but watching the game it was clear – if the nation didn't know who Bigelow was before, they certainly do now.
"I went in at halftime, checked my phone it was vibrating," he said grinning from ear to ear, "it's still vibrating right now, it's great."
At his Army All-American jersey presentation in early December, Bigelow gave a heartfelt speech about his upbringing. He shared the story of his father's battle with alcoholism and the phone call he received at age 14, informing him his father died in jail. At the ceremony Bigelow thanked his mother for "putting up with him" through the tough times and after the game on Saturday, shared his joy that he was able to put on the performance he did for her and his father.
"I've got my mom out here, she's watching, my dad passed away – I did it for them," he said. "All that type of stuff motivated me to do this"
"It was great to know I have so much support, so many people in my corner, and so many people behind me," he said.

Thursday afternoon, the University's Palouse Ridge Golf Club defended their water usage to the Palouse Basin Aquifer Committee. The golf course superintendent informed those in attendance that their computer-monitored irrigation system conserves water by indicating which areas need it, and which ones don't.
"We have one of the top-notch irrigation systems in the United States, not just the state of Washington," said Palouse Ridge Golf Course Superintendent Tom Lupkes. "There are $1,000,000 golf courses all over the country that would love to have what we have."
Environmentalists say the only number that matters is the amount of water in the Grande Ronde aquifer, which is declining annually. Environmental organizations on the Palouse filed a lawsuit against WSU and the Washington State Department of Ecology regarding the 2006 decision to consolidate WSU's municipal water rights. The State Supreme Court heard the case last month, however it could still be months before they issue their ruling on the matter.

The 2003 season–the Mike Shula Era of Alabama football–begins at 2 p.m. CDT Saturday when Bama hosts South Florida at Legion Field in Birmingham. The game will be telecast by ESPN.
Alabama will go to Birmingham Friday evening, have dinner and a meeting, and then may have a final meeting Saturday morning. Reporters had asked if his Friday night routine would include a movie, as it had in the Mike DuBose Era (and before), or if it would be the lockdown that was the Dennis Franchione method of the past two years. "Something in between, I guess," Shula said. And, a reporter wanted to know, "The players will be allowed to talk during dinner?" Shula laughed and said, yes, they would.
"It's finally here–Game Week," Shula said in opening his weekly press briefing. "It's something we've all been looking forward to. I can see the players are a little more excited than they have been over the past three weeks. You can feel it on campus."
He added, "We need to play a game. And we want our players to go out and just play–not think, but just play and have fun."
The first-year head coach said that for him personally he expects the excitement to grow each day towards the weekend. "We're excited that it's here," he said. "We've been through a summer and a fall practice camp that we'll never forget. The guys have done everything we've asked of them."
It has been difficult for the coaching staff. "We have been detail-oriented," Shula said. "Every decision we made we were making for the first time, so we went over things very thoroughly. Our staff meetings have run longer this year than they will be later." And while everything is new to Shula as a first-time head coach, he said he is enjoying it and looks forward "to all the newness of this job."
He also said that he is happy to be back at his alma mater, where he has "so many great memories." And he said that fan support "has been unbelievable for me, my wife, and family. It's one of the reasons we came here. But now we've got to win games."
Shula said game-week preparation means the Tide "will be doing a little less physically insofar as conditioning and hitting. It's more mental now."
He said that the emphasis had been on the players and staff coming together as a team, every many doing his job. "We've talked to our guys about the feeling that comes from winning," Shula said. "We have 13 opportunities this year, and we were going to prepare as hard as we could for the seniors. And that's what we've done."
There is a perception that Alabama will not have an extensive offensive package this year because this staff was not in place during spring practice. But Shula said he is satisfied that Alabama has an adequate plan and that the players will be prepared to execute it.
Shula is also aware that he is considered a young coach. "This is my 16th year of coaching and this is far and away the greatest age ap I've had with my players," the 38-year-old Shula said. "In fact, I coached 10 years (in the NFL) before I coached a guy who was younger than me."
Alabama is fast running out of games at Legion Field. The current contract calls for three more Alabama appearances–Saturday's game, the 2005 opener against Middle Tennessee State, and a final game in either 2007 or 2008. Shula admitted that he had "a lot of great memories of Legion Field. We had some disappointing losses, too, but mostly great memories. I'm sure that will mean more to me when we go out on the field Saturday."
Shula isn't thinking about "holding anything back" against South Florida. "We've got to prepare for this game and do whatever we can to win it," the Tide coach said. "This is a very good South Florida team. They were 9-2 last year with the only losses road games at Oklahoma and Arkansas. They have great speed. And they were 16th in the nation in defense last year."
Shula was an assistant coach with the Tampa Bay Bucs when the South Florida football program was begun. Although he said he does not know South Florida Coach Jim Leavitt well, Shula said he has great admiration for what Leavitt has done in establishing the Bulls. (A little sidenote is that Leavitt was one of the men considered for Alabama's head coaching job following the departure of Dennis Franchione at the end of last season. Leavitt was not offered the Tide job and has since signed a new contract with South Florida.)
Shula is not going to be trapped into saying that any player is destined for a redshirt season, because circumstances can change the status of a player. However, he indicates that at least three offensive linemen and three wide receivers are likely to be held out. He also said he did not foresee freshman defensive tackle Dominic Lee being redshirted, that Lee has moved into the rotation.
He also said that redshirt freshman Jeremy Clark would start at defensive tackle, ahead of Ahmad Childress, who has been absent a great deal with an ankle problem. Shula added that he expects all of the defensive linewmen to play about an equal numbe of snaps.
Although a depth chart was issued Monday, Shula said there is "a lot of flexibility" in that listing and that some who are listed as starters might not be when Saturday arrives.
Shula reiterated that the coaches and players are anxious to get the season underway. He added, "If the team meshes as well as the coaches have, we'll be fine."

ADB-Kazakhstan Partnership Strategy
The country partnership strategy (CPS), 2012-2016 for Kazakhstan is designed to make the economy more competitive and diverse in order to sustain growth and create jobs. It defines a new development partnership with ADB that is relevant and responsive to Kazakhstan's goal of transitioning to a high-income country.
The CPS underscores the need for sustaining infrastructure investments to boost productivity of the economy and promote diversification. It recognizes that the private sector has to become the main engine of growth over time. It includes measures to support the business environment for private sector development and identifies key operational areas for working directly with the private sector to support its role.
Knowledge exchange is central to the partnership between ADB and Kazakhstan. Knowledge products and services will support institutional improvements and reforms. Knowledge support will also deepen policy dialogue between the two partners on development issues.
Strengthening the financial sector to support growth and diversification is an important part of the partnership. Expanding access to finance for small and medium-sized industries will support entrepreneurs and create new jobs and economic opportunities. Developing nonbank financial markets will generate long-term domestic finance for infrastructure development. Support for local currency finance will deepen the bond markets and diversify the financial system.
In addition, the partnership will help Kazakhstan take advantage of its strategic Eurasian location through regional cooperation in transport, energy, and trade facilitation. ADB's support will focus on upgrading the road network along the Central Asia Regional Economic Cooperation (CAREC) transport corridors and strengthening regional trade and transport links.
The country operations business plan (COBP) to guide ADB operations in Kazakhstan during 2016-2018 is consistent with CPS, 2012-2016. The COBP supports the CPS's strategic directions of economic development and diversification through infrastructure modernization, and finance sector development, including improved access to finance for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
The main cross-cutting strategic priorities of the CPS - regional cooperation, private sector development, environmental sustainability, governance, and knowledge solutions - are also promoted under this COBP. The COBP is also aligned with ADB's corporate strategic priorities formulated in the Midterm Review of Strategy 2020 and the strategic priorities of Kazakhstan's 2050 Strategy.
The Public Communications Policy (PCP) recognizes that transparency and accountability are essential to development effectiveness. It establishes the disclosure requirements for documents and information ADB produces or requires to be produced.
The Accountability Mechanism provides a forum where people adversely affected by ADB-assisted projects can voice and seek solutions to their problems and report alleged noncompliance of ADB's operational policies and procedures.
In preparing any country program or strategy, financing any project, or by making any designation of, or reference to, a particular territory or geographic area in this document, the Asian Development Bank does not intend to make any judgments as to the legal or other status of any territory or area.

Now, everybody knows Florida Gulf Coast
ARLINGTON, Texas -- A week ago, Florida Gulf Coast University was just another overlooked No. 15 seed -- a longshot at best to nearly everyone eyeballing their NCAA tournament brackets.
Now the Eagles are the high-flying show from "Dunk City" in the round of 16, the darlings of the South Regional and a bracket-busting team everybody is talking about even when surrounded by former national champions Michigan, Kansas and Florida.
"Things have changed dramatically," FGCU coach Andy Enfield said.
"The way we looked at it, we did make history. ... We feel like we shocked the world," said Brett Comer, the guard with 22 points and 24 assists in two NCAA games. "Nobody picked us to beat Georgetown, or San Diego State, for sure. We're going to prepare for Florida the same way. We're going to try to win again."
Florida Gulf Coast (26-10) plays the SEC regular-season champion Gators (28-7), the No. 3 seed in the South, tonight. The improbable intrastate showdown is magnified even more at Cowboys Stadium, where the court is on a raised stage and below giant high-definition screens that had the players' attention on Thursday.
"Even if you make big plays, it's hard to get a good angle on that TV, you have to stand right on the edge (of the court)," Eagles forward Chase Fieler said. "We'll have to run more toward the sideline to see it."
This group doesn't need one of the world's largest HD displays to appear larger than life, though any highlight dunks sure will look good on the big screens.
How about a few shots up there of their sun-soaked campus in Fort Myers, Fla., with its manmade lakes and a beach? The school's first classes were held in August 1997, making FGCU younger than the players who have put it on a national stage.
"I never heard of Florida Gulf Coast until actually I started to visit the school and to attend it," admitted Sherwood Brown, the dreadlocked showman who leads the Eagles in scoring (15.6 points per game) and rebounds (6.6 rpg) and is their only senior starter.
After their two NCAA tournament victories in Philadelphia, the Eagles arrived home early Monday morning. All the players were in back in class a few hours after that, though the atmosphere had certainly changed on the campus with an enrollment of 13,468.
"It was a busy week, just with the attention and the media being around. And the students were excited about what's going on and talking to us," Fieler said.
"But now we're in Dallas, we can feel the game starting to get closer and closer," Enfield said.

Welcome to a new feature on the Impossible Blog: 8 Exposures. We'll be asking artists and photographers 8 questions revolving around photography, especially instant photography. Also included will be 8 Impossible images submitted by the featured artist.
Our inaugural edition of 8 Exposures focuses on Charlie Wagers, an Ohio-based graphic designer, art director and illustrator, and a founding member of Three Bears Design.
1) Q: What kind of Polaroid camera(s) do you use?
A: I have a vintage folding SX-70 that I prefer to use, in addition to a bunch of old thrifted 600 cameras. I like the SX-70 because I can use 600 films in it, with a filter. And it folds up nicely, which makes it easy to carry around with me.
2) Q: Why do you like instant photography?
A: I always prefer analogue photography to digital. I most commonly photograph with 120 films in my Holga, so using instant cameras is a treat to see the photos within minutes. I especially appreciate the colors and new effects that come with using Impossible's film types.
3) Q: What is your earliest memory of instant film?
A: Probably my parents telling me they wouldn't buy me a Polaroid camera, because the film was too expensive when I was little. Another good memory (not very long ago) was in 2008, my friend Phil and I were living in Pittsburgh. When we found out Polaroid was discontinuing their instant film we drove 45 minutes outside of the city to buy $300 worth of 600 film.
4) Q: What's your favorite Impossible film type?
A: This is a tough one. My favorite film was the PX-70 Push!, for the colors. I shot a pack of it on tour in March, and loved it. But also I really like borders on the Black Frame version of the PX 600 Silver Shade. Make a color film with black borders, and that will be the ultimate for me.
5) Q: What are your favorite subjects to photograph?
A: I have a weird obsession with old neon signs. I think I just really like to take present-day photos that look like they are from another era. I love using texture and vintage imagery within my graphic design work, and I try to find opportunities to utilize my (amateur) photography within my design work.
6) Q: Tell us about a project you're working on
A: Right now I'm designing for some secret tour swag for Josh Ritter. I can't say what, but it is based off of his lyric, "I'm still waiting for the whiskey to whisk me away." And I love whiskey, so I jumped at the opportunity to create some appropriate imagery.
7) Q: Who are your favorite photographers, instant or otherwise?
A: Last year I saw a show at the Akron Art Museum called Detroit Disassembled by Andrew Moore. The photos were all humongous prints, and the subjects were abandoned buildings in Detroit. I am guilty of enjoying urban-exploration photography, and this show blew me away. I think it was the scale; the photos were very wide, and incredibly detailed. I also really appreciate work by Gregory Crewdson & Diane Arbus.
8) Q: If you could take any photo of anyone or anything what would it be?
A: Probably a shipwreck. I am obsessed with underwater photography, and love swimming. I've even tried the Holga in-a-plastic-bag technique. Additionally, I am a certified scuba diver, so maybe this goal is attainable.
Thanks very much to Charlie for participating! Stay tuned for future episodes of 8 Exposures featuring more interesting people from the analog community!

The Upside of Vertical Turning
Vertical turning centers that use the main spindle to load and unload themselves are finding increasing acceptance as multitasking capabilities make them efficient processing centers for producing chucked parts.
Turning to an Alternative for Small, Complex Work
The QuickTech TT-42 from Absolute Machine Tools provides many of the same advantages as a Swiss-type lathe for small, complex parts that don't justify the use of a guide bushing.
Keeping Watch on Small Parts
From watch parts to exotic medical applications, this shop takes on the world of micromachining.

Preview: Packers at Cardinals
When: 3:15 p.m. Sunday.
Where: University of Phoenix Stadium, Glendale, Ariz.
Television: Fox.
Radio: AM-620 in Milwaukee. Wayne Larrivee will call the play-by-play action for the Packers Radio Network with Larry McCarren providing the analysis.
Line: Cardinals by 3.
Series record: Packers lead, 42-22-4.
Last time they met: Packers 31, Cardinals 14, on Oct. 29, 2006, at Lambeau Field.
Using limited weapons to optimum advantage, the Packers rolled over the Cardinals before 70,809 at Lambeau Field.
After an opening scoring threat was botched on a fake field-goal attempt, the Packers did everything that teams of their caliber must do in order to win handily against any opponent.
That is, they didn't commit a turnover, they ran the ball for 203 yards and a 5.2-yard average and their defense harassed rookie quarterback Matt Leinart into 40% passing and the Cardinals to merely 218 total yards.
At the time, the Packers were one of three teams in the NFL without a victory at home. Not only did they avoid just the fourth 0-4 home start in their history but also came through as a favorite for the first time all season.
The Cardinals fell to 1-7, losing for the seventh straight time.
In the end, the Packers amassed 28 first downs, their most since Week 6 in 2004.
Green Bay's backs, linemen and perimeter blockers were so dominating that the Packers had just four third-down plays and no punts in the first three quarters.
With little or no penetration, Ahman Green ran harder than he has in perhaps two years, and Vernand Morency also had his finest day as a Packer.
Conversely, the matchup between the Packers defense and the Cardinals offense played out as anticipated.
With new starters at three line positions, the Cardinals weren't cohesive enough to handle Aaron Kampman or numerous inside linebacker blitzes. Combine a leaky line with the absence of Pro Bowl receiver Larry Fitzgerald (hamstring), and Leinart didn't have much chance.
1. WHO PLAYS, WHO SITS? Arizona has wrapped up the NFC West title and will host a first-round playoff game. Green Bay clinched a wild-card berth with its victory over Seattle on Sunday. There's also a good chance the Cardinals and Packers will meet in round one of the postseason. So it's quite possible both teams will play their starters only a short time and stay extremely simple in their game plans.
2. CHASING DICKEY: Packer quarterback Aaron Rodgers enters the game 260 yards behind Lynn Dickey's single-season record of 4,458 set in 1983. Coach Mike McCarthy likes numbers and statistics and just might be inclined to let Rodgers chase the record. Then again, with the game meaning little in terms of the postseason, McCarthy might sit his standout QB early.
3. FANTASTIC FINLEY: Paul Coffman's 56 receptions in 1979 are the most ever by a Packer tight end in a single season. Green Bay's Jermichael Finley currently has 51, despite missing three games with a sprained knee. Finley might be given the chance to play most of the way against Arizona and make a run at Coffman's mark.
4. MOVING ON UP: Arizona reached the Super Bowl last year despite a defense that ranked 28th in points allowed. In the off-season, the Cardinals fired coordinator Clancy Pendergast and promoted LB coach Bill Davis, who has made major improvements. Arizona now ranks 11th in points allowed and also has jumped into the top 10 in takeaways with 28.
5. MAIN MAN: Arizona's Larry Fitzgerald is probably the best wide receiver in football. At 6-foot-3 and 217 pounds, corners can't come close to matching Fitzgerald physically. He runs well and his hands and vision are off the charts. Fitzgerald did something a year ago few wideouts have ever accomplished: carry a team to a Super Bowl. If he plays for long Sunday, he'll create matchup nightmares.
Arizona's Kurt Warner is 38 but still playing at a high level. His passer rating is 93.3; he's thrown 26 TDs vs. 14 interceptions, and he's pushing 4,000 yards again. Warner reads defenses well, has a big arm and is extremely accurate. No. 2 Matt Leinart is Arizona's quarterback of the future and figures to play a lot Sunday. Green Bay's Aaron Rodgers has a passer rating of more than 100.0 in nine of Green Bay's last 13 games.
→ ADVANTAGE: Even
Chris "Beanie" Wells, Arizona's No. 1 draft pick, has become the team's featured back over the second half of the season and has scored in three straight games. Wells is tough and physical, yet has the speed to go the distance. Second-year man Tim Hightower is more of a short yardage back who gets much of the goal line work. Green Bay's Ryan Grant has a career-high 10 TDs and has eclipsed 1,200 yards rushing for two straight seasons.
→ ADVANTAGE: Packers
Arizona's group just might be the best in football. No. 1 Larry Fitzgerald is arguably the best WR in football. No. 2 Anquan Boldin is extremely physical, tough to tackle and makes countless tough catches. No. 3 Steve Breaston eclipsed 1,000 yards last year and is having another solid season. The Cardinals use a tight end-by-committee approach and none are special. Green Bay's Greg Jennings eclipsed the 1,000-yard mark last week, and Jermichael Finley is six catches away from Paul Coffman's single-season team record. But Donald Driver has had just one 100-yard receiving game in his last 10.
→ ADVANTAGE: Cardinals
Arizona's Mike Gandy was a so-so LT, at best. He then underwent hernia surgery Dec. 18 and will likely be out during the playoffs. Journeyman Jeremy Bridges, who was cut by the Redskins in September, has stepped in even though he's better suited for guard. While Bridges is a huge question mark, he was terrific against Minnesota's Jared Allen on Dec. 6. The rest of the group is identical to the unit that gelled during last year's Super Bowl run. LG Reggie Wells is probably the steadiest member, while RT Levi Brown - the fifth-overall pick in the 2007 draft - has tremendous upside. In two of the last three weeks, running back Ryan Grant broke loose for a long TD run. On both of those plays, Green Bay's blocking has been perfect.
→ ADVANTAGE: Even
Powerful DRT Darnell Dockett headlines the front in Arizona's 3-4 scheme. Dockett (seven sacks) has a terrific first step and is extremely disruptive. Bryan Robinson, in his 13th year, starts on the nose but platoons. DE Calais Campbell, a first-year starter, has performed well (seven sacks). Green Bay NT B.J. Raji has improved in recent weeks and helped soften the ongoing uncertainty of Ryan Pickett (hamstring).
→ ADVANTAGE: Cardinals
Arizona's best player is MLB Karlos Dansby, who leads the team in tackles (109). MLB Gerald Hayes is a thumper. OLBs Chike Okeafor (4 1/2 sacks) and former Steeler Clark Haggans (five sacks) have both been in the league more than a decade. Green Bay's Nick Barnett has gotten better as the year has gone on. His nine-tackle, one-sack effort against Seattle was terrific.
→ ADVANTAGE: Packers
Arizona LCB Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie is one of the game's bright young stars at his position. He has terrific size (6-foot-2, 182 pounds), eye-popping athleticism and outstanding hands. RCB Bryant McFadden has battled through an ankle injury. SS Adrian Wilson is among the game's best and is used much like the Packers once deployed LeRoy Butler. FS Antrel Rolle is a converted corner who continues to improve. Green Bay leads the NFL with 27 interceptions but still has issues in nickel/dime packages.
→ ADVANTAGE: Cardinals
Arizona's Neil Rackers has made 16-of-17 field goals this year (94.1%), while Australian P Ben Graham is tied for sixth in net punting average (40.5). Return ace Steve Breaston can go the distance at any time. Green Bay's Mason Crosby might be regaining his confidence, but he's still just 26 of 35 this year (74.3%). P Jeremy Kapinos is just 26th in net (33.8), while return man Jordy Nelson has been OK.
→ ADVANTAGE: Cardinals
Arizona's Ken Whisenhunt arrived in 2007 and inherited an outfit that had lost at least 10 games in seven of the previous eight seasons. Since then, the Cardinals are 27-20 (.574), have won two straight NFC West titles and came within an eyelash of winning last year's Super Bowl. Green Bay's Mike McCarthy is now 37-26 (.587) and has the Packers back in the playoffs for the second time in his four years.
→ ADVANTAGE: Even

My first pregnancy was so weird. I only tested because I had the test, I bled like a period the entire first 3-4 months so if I did not test I would not have known as soon as I did.
Last night I woke up to some bleeding and stuffed a tampon in thinking I had my period. It was red when I did this, then when removed after leaving it in WAY too long it was just brown (from leaving in too long) and not much blood. I thought I had my period but it just bled a little bit, then stopped and nothing since 24 hours later (been wearing a pad in case). I am having regular discharge know. Is this implantation bleeding? Can I test now or how long should I wait if my period does not come? I was just going to use the Walmart one again or maybe the $Tree one.
My mom had no advice because of what happened with DS and thinks it probably was implantation and/or the spotting will happen again.
I am about 4-5 days late.

In a column posted this morning (Insider), ESPN Baseball Insider Buster Olney relays a story from spring training that started the ball rolling in the wrong direction for Bobby Valentine and his relationship with Red Sox players:
According to sources within the organization, Valentine had asked for a change in the way that cutoff plays were run, and when he walked onto a field very early in spring training, what he saw almost immediately was that shortstop Mike Aviles was not where he wanted him to be. Valentine loudly and profanely questioned Aviles' aptitude, others in the organization say. What Valentine did not know at that moment was that the Red Sox players hadn't yet been instructed on where to go in the new cutoff alignment.
Aviles is highly respected, a grinder, and other players were bothered enough by the exchange that three leaders on the team -- Dustin Pedroia, David Ortiz and Adrian Gonzalez -- went to Valentine to express concern and provide context for Aviles' mistake. Gonzalez, sources say, asked Valentine that if he wanted to get on a player verbally, the first baseman would be OK with being a target, because he could take it.
It was a moment that others in the organization now look back on as a crossroad in Valentine's year as manager, because in that instant, Valentine could have gone one of two ways.
He could have listened to the players, embraced what they were saying, called a team meeting the next day and built on the incident. He could have apologized to Aviles and then told all of them, in so many words, Mike, you should know that these three guys over here -- Ortiz, Pedroia and Gonzalez -- have your back and are really good teammates, and that's a great thing. And I'm really feeling good about what we have in this room.
"But it didn't go that way," said a member of the organization.

Fish Kabsa (Saudi)
Total Time
Prep 2 mins
Cook 35 mins
This is good with a fresh salad on the side. "Fish kabsa is a dish coming from the cities that border the sea and gulf in Saudi Arabia. Any white fish fillet that you may like would work well in this recipe." Modified from a recipe found on yasalamcooking.com.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 kg fish fillet, cut into smallish large pieces
- 1⁄2 cup water
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 6 garlic cloves
- 1 large white onion, diced
- 2 cups rice (I use Basmati and am sure to soak it the required mount of time)
- 3 cups water
- 1 vegetable bouillon cube (I use homemade vegetable stock)
- 1⁄2 tablespoon arabic mixed spice (Baharat Aka Middle East Mixed Spices - the Real Mix)
- sea salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1⁄4 cup pine nuts, toasted in a dry frying pan
- 1⁄4 cup fresh cilantro
- In a large pan on medium heat add butter, onions and garlic; cook until tender. Add Arabic spice mix, mix well. Carefully add fish and allow to cook halfway on each side until lightly pink-white. About 1 minute or less on each side. Remove fish/onion mixture and set aside.
- Add tomato paste and bullion cube to pan, cook a little then add rice and water. Carefully place fish mixture on top. Raise heat to high and allow to come to a full boil, cover and reduce to low. Allow to cook until rice and fish are thoroughly cooked. Depending on the thickness of the fish fillets and the rice type, adjust timing.
- Once done, arrange fish kabsa on a serving platter and decorate top with cilantro and pine nuts.
- Serve with a fresh salad.
- Enjoy!

I love this recipe! I've made it 3 times now. Only adjustment I made is the first time, I added some diced fresh tomato and some fresh spinach with the rice to add a little more nutritional content and i replaced the pine nuts with almonds and it was sooo very good, Allahumma Baarik. This last time I only added the spinach and i didn't have any tomato paste, but it was still delicious.
And I love how fast I can prepare it. Definitely a recipe I will continue to make insha'Allah.
This fish is absolutely delicious! I sliced my onions (instead of chopping) and didn't top with cilantro, otherwise made just as directed and would not change a thing. I made this with tilapia and used Baharat Aka Middle East Mixed Spices - the Real Mix for the spice as you suggested. Wonderful aroma, great flavor - loved this - thanks for sharing a keeper!

Looking for some advice/encouragement. After 8 years of struggling with infertility, I got pregnant naturally in February this year but it ended in a mc in March.
Now, I'm pregnant again! I'm six weeks along and a couple of days ago, I started having low back pain (exactly like when I'm about to start my period) and also some mild cramping in my lower abdomen. I know it's normal to feel like you are going to start when you first find out your pregnant, and I did, but those feelings went away and have now come back. On Monday, I had an early u/s and saw the yolk sac, fetal pole, and tiny heartbeat but on Tuesday, the cramping and back pain started. I haven't had any spotting.
Has anyone else experienced this and gone on to have a healthy pregnancy? I don't need any negative responses as I have enough worry going on right now because of what happened back in March. I'm just trying to see if anyone has experienced this and everything turned out to be okay?

MSO Pops delivers a Gershwin treat
Style, elegance, foot-tapping rhythms and soaring melodies filled Uihlein Hall on Friday evening, thanks to a particularly fine Milwaukee Symphony Pops concert.
The orchestra, under the baton of guest conductor Jeff Tyzik, presented an evening of George Gershwin. It avoided the most often heard of Gershwin's pieces, in favor of lesser-known works, capping the evening with concert excerpts from his quintessentially American opera, "Porgy and Bess." »Read Full Article
Actor John C. Reilly brings character to concert at Miller Caves
The Miller Caves, underneath the brewery that not only made Milwaukee famous but also helped define the city itself, apparently never seemed, until Sunday night, like a place to hold a concert.
In retrospect, after the very first such event courtesy of John C. Reilly and Friends, the historic location was a small club waiting to happen: The painted backdrop of cavorting (presumably) Germans had retro style, as did the overhead lamps and the high-arched ceiling. »Read Full Article(4)

Take a seat
Milwaukee's historic house museums are offering patrons a seat at their annual fundraising event Wednesday. And, afterward — guests can take the chairs with them. The Villa Terrace Decorative Arts Museum and the Charles Allis Art Museum have been blessed with chairs — or artistic riffs on chairs — created by local artists for this auction at 6 p.m. at the Villa Terrace. The seats range from an old easy chair dressed as a cozy grandmother to a pew made from doors to a partial-chair that's now totally sculptural. Other seats for auction are ones at theatrical productions, sporting events or a table in a local fine dining establishment. The evening also features live music, hors d'oeuvres and a cash bar. Tickets are $25. Making a reservation would be appreciated and can be done by calling Ann Steinbach at (414) 278-8295 Ext. 5, but it isn't mandatory.
