The show “Brigsby Bear Adventures” is a children’s television program produced for an audience of one: James Pope. When the series abruptly ends, Pope’s life changes forever as he sets out to finish the story line himself. To do that, he must learn how to cope with the realities of a new world that he knows nothing about.

The specific way it unfolds invites a lot of “What’s going on, and what does it mean?” conjecture from the audience. It’s more fun to watch than to… Continue reading…
When Atsushi Hashimoto was a kid, he loved role-playing games. He’d settle in front of the television for hours, controller in hand, lost in quests full of magical spells and powerful evils. He was particularly enamored with the works of Squaresoft, now known as Square Enix, the developer behind 16-bit classics like Final Fantasy and Chrono Trigger. As he grew older, classic-style Japanese RPGs largely went out of fashion, replaced by a combination of big-budget action games and smaller mobile titles. But Hashimoto never forgot about the games that helped define his relationship with the medium. In 2014 he had the chance to bring them back as the director at Square Enix’s Tokyo RPG Factory studio.
Microsoft first revealed its plans to bring Android and iPhone phones closer to Windows 10 earlier this year, and now the company is letting public testers play with the new features. In a new Windows 10 preview (build 16251) released today, Android users will be able to test a new “Microsoft Apps” application that links a phone to a PC. Microsoft hasn’t revealed when iPhone users will be able to test similar functionality, so it’s Android only for now.
The link will enable new cross-device features, including the ability to share a link from a mobile directly to a Windows 10 PC. It’s the first of many features Microsoft is planning to closely align Android and iOS to Windows 10 … Continue reading…
The shadow of NASA’s P-3 aircraft is seen over an iceberg on a May 8, 2017 flight supporting NASA’s Operation IceBridge mission. IceBridge began its final week of Arctic Spring 2017 surveys with a glacier-packed mission in Greenland, called Southeast Glaciers 01.

It only took one time seeing the Samsung S8 filming a shark to make my eyes wander. Let me repeat that, a man in a shark cage recording a shark! It filled my little photographer heart with joy. Who wouldn’t want to be filming inside a shark cage? While being swept up in the excitement of a water proof phone, my husband pointed out that 1. When we were in the Bahamas I was nervous about snorkeling. Sharks would make things a lot scarier. 2. It was a shark, they bite. 3. Sharks, bite. He didn’t mention 4. which would be, that based on my past experiences if a shark cage failed it would be me inside and the shark would bite me and swallow my new phone.
I wonder if my phone insurance would cover sharks.
The Samsung S2 survived soooo many toilet dunks! It was going to be my cellphone forever. My Samsung S2 is now our car camera. It might be the best phone I have ever owned. It connects to the house wiflies and becomes a palm sized tablet.
It turns out that I didn’t have to give up my [amazon_textlink asin=’B014A5SNBI’ text=’Samsung S6 Edge Plus’ template=’ProductLink’ store=’cfmmusscean03-20′ marketplace=’US’ link_id=’aa37902d-6501-11e7-b282-0f5a3254f745′] either. We were entitled to another line. I love T-Mobile. Kelsey spent most of her day explaining every option available to us and answered endless questions, even stupid questions, knowledgeably and with kindness. We go to the T-Mobile store in the Mt. Shasta Mall in Redding, CA. She is one of those co-workers that every company wants! Even about importing the home phone number to the S6.
It has been impossible for me to give up the house phone. We rarely use it but it has been our home number for probably 20 years. Giving it up meant the loss of the phones in our home! If you are in the bedroom, your cellphone will always ring in the family room. We found out you can go to [amazon_textlink asin=’B07237Z2XK’ text=’Amazon.com’ template=’ProductLink’ store=’cfmmusscean03-20′ marketplace=’US’ link_id=’8ffc0714-6505-11e7-86fd-9d095d587875′] and buy an interface that allows you to use a cellphone with your house phones.

I hope the Samsung S8 lives up to my expectations and that I am never bitten by a shark. (I know what you are thinking, a shark bite scar would be kind of awesome. It really would. Especially if I was visiting my dear friends at indie gaming studio Primordial Echo which is in AUSTRALIA! Visit Australia AND a shark bite scar my son would be soooo jealous. *insert evil laugh*)

Privacy’s a rarity these days, and your beloved social media sites are largely to blame for that. But there are things you are doing on those sites that are making the situation even worse.
Facebook asks for your life story. Think before you fill out everything. If you acknowledge your mother and your mother posts her maiden name you have given up everything but your social security number. If a friend plays a game app he or she gives them access to your information. It isn’t as private as you think. Check your settings regularly, Facebook is constantly changing. R.M.
