hi nono - it's been a half hour since we've spoken!
7:41 am

i noticed the chat was quite when i came in, where is everyone?
7:42 am
tragicstud
not sure...

Storm-proofing?
7:44 am
NonoNanette
who's expecting storms? certainly not here
7:44 am
NonoNanette
its sort just a blah day
7:44 am
tragicstud
the blah is supposed to burn off throughout the day here...
7:44 am
NonoNanette
and Hi Uni, how are you?
7:44 am
Uniquity
Oohh...Nova Scotia is still under a storm watch. I suppose that only accounts for Lori, though.
7:44 am
tragicstud
i could use some sun truth be told...
7:44 am
NonoNanette
yes here too tragic
7:44 am
tragicstud
(yes, hi uni)
7:45 am
Uniquity
It must be a Winnie-the-Pooh sort of day, then..
7:46 am
tragicstud
winnie the pooh sort of month i think
7:46 am
tragicstud
february is never good for the stud...
7:46 am
tragicstud
it's ok - it's almost over :)
7:47 am
NonoNanette
too many birthdays here for it to be a winnie the pooh month :)
7:47 am
tragicstud
that's nice...
7:48 am
tragicstud
how many you have?
7:49 am
featherbee
morning! what's the tone of this grid? better than the weather i hope?
7:49 am
NonoNanette
three of us in immediate family plus quite a few close friends
7:49 am
tragicstud
yeah- that is really nice
7:49 am
juliamb
good morning feather, where is your weather today
7:49 am
tragicstud
it's not looking too terrible feather, but i've been here for 40 minutes and am not at half way yet
7:50 am
NonoNanette
hi feather, the grid is so so thus far but havent been at it very long
7:50 am
featherbee
we had snow last night. ick.
7:50 am
tragicstud

7:50 am

7:56 am
Takuma Sato
howdy folks
7:56 am
tragicstud
does a computer generate the puzzles?
7:56 am
NonoNanette
hi Taku!
7:56 am
Takuma Sato
you mean the grids, ts?
7:57 am
NonoNanette
need one more from that top o and all o's will be grey but it just doesn't want to be found
7:57 am
tragicstud
do we know the creator?
7:58 am
Takuma Sato
I started writing a babble-clone, so I could play offline, and grid-generation was among the more straightforward parts
7:58 am
tragicstud
of course it's dr god...lol...i'm surprised i don't know the history...
7:59 am
Takuma Sato
I think he was a law student at UPenn, when babble first went up
8:00 am
tragicstud
what an interesting way to have positively effected hundreds and hundreds of people...
8:00 am
Takuma Sato
brb -- I'm getting a lot of input lag, so I'm going to restart my browser to see if that eliminates it
8:00 am
NonoNanette
yes he has certainly hooked many of us and held us captive
8:01 am
tragicstud
and yes, oscar should be a word
8:01 am
tragicstud
well, and the community it's built - what an amazing thing he's done.
8:02 am
tragicstud
a lot of my students are wanting to create online games...
8:04 am
juliamb
how do you begin learning how to create games, tragic
8:05 am
EvaNadine
mornin babblers.
8:05 am
Uneaixoise
morning, all!
8:05 am
Uneaixoise
hey, ava :-)
8:05 am
tragicstud
it seems like a lot of them just found a game - became obsessed, and then started getting really involved with the community...
8:05 am
Takuma Sato
it is pretty impressive -- esp. given that he's (apparently) very hands-off.
8:05 am
juliamb
good morning!
8:05 am
Takuma Sato
Hi, Eva
8:05 am
tragicstud
they met moderators who are essentially teaching them online
8:06 am
NonoNanette
hi Eva and Une
8:06 am
juliamb
that is great
8:06 am
tragicstud
and so they even have work shifts...where they moderate, and fix glitches as they occur - they get paid in paypal credits
8:06 am
Uneaixoise
hey, nono :-)
8:06 am
tragicstud
it's fascinating
8:06 am
juliamb
wow, amazing
8:07 am
tragicstud
i wonder if it's legal...
8:07 am
tragicstud
i'm sure their parents don't know, and i also know that their parents are pissed that they're online all night
8:07 am
tragicstud
that said, i think it's great for them
8:07 am
Takuma Sato
I once played an online game in which, after reaching a high level of success, players were invited to write new parts to the game
8:08 am
tragicstud
oh that's awesome
8:08 am
Takuma Sato
I had a few friends who learned to code that way -- there were lots of experienced programmers involved, who were happy to help out.
8:08 am
juliamb
my teens make me "nutty"
8:10 am
tragicstud
sato, what kind of game was it?
8:10 am
Aussieme
Kia Ora Babble Family !! Hope all is well..... Hows the grid ??
8:11 am
tragicstud
hi aus - it's not horrible
8:11 am
Aussieme
Oh good, maybe doable for me then
8:11 am
tragicstud
though i wanted to get all the 4s done by 920 and i'm not going to be able to
8:11 am
NonoNanette
Hi Aussi
8:11 am
Takuma Sato
it was a text-based war game, with a fairly sizable user community. That was years ago, though. It was the first place I did object-oriented programming though
8:11 am
Aussieme
Oh good, doable for me then !! (maybe :0)
8:12 am
Alexis Elise
Hi everyone. I finally purchased the game today and the R's are killing me... is it just me or are they weird for everyone?
8:12 am
Aussieme
Hey Nono !!
8:12 am
Takuma Sato
Hi, Alexis - welcome to the big-times! ;)
8:12 am

Awwwww....
8:14 am
EvaNadine
apparently our database is still down...no work we can do until they fix it...
8:14 am
Takuma Sato
from time-to-time it's struck me that pro just requires a one-time fee, and lasts forever. Not many games (or services) work that way
8:15 am
tragicstud
heh- nice eva :)
8:15 am
Aussieme
Hey Eva !
8:15 am
NonoNanette
Hi alexis, haven't really tackled the r's yet
8:15 am
tragicstud
it's like babble appreciation day :)
8:15 am
NonoNanette
am concentrating on the bottom of the grid first
8:15 am
Alexis Elise
Yes, Takuma. I've been playing for free for a long time now. I thought it was time to splurge and stop the free-loading
8:15 am
Aussieme
Its really cool that way Sato, (do you prefer Takuma or Sato ?)
8:15 am

hi Eva
8:15 am
EvaNadine
generally not being able to work is a good thing...
but we were really busting booty to get this project done by tomorrow -- since it is already 2 months overdue...
8:16 am
tragicstud
(i enjoy that you asked - and am interested to find the answer out)
8:16 am
tragicstud
oh, then... sorry eva
8:16 am
Aussieme
Ha, it should be a national holiday (Babble Appreciation Day)
8:16 am
Takuma Sato
Heh, I don't have a preference Aussie. Usually ppl use 'Tak' 'taku' or 'ts', but darn tragicstud has gone and made 'ts ambiguous
8:17 am
tragicstud
lol- i'm usually stud though
8:17 am
EvaNadine
eh, its already a not-so-great day for me today...
found out last night that my godmother passed away tuesday evening. :(
8:17 am

so sorry Eva, my condolences

oh, i'm so sorry eva...

sorry to hear that, Eva

Oh Eva, I been through that this year..... {{Eva}}

she had a stroke a few weeks ago + her DNR stated no feeding tubes, so it has just been a matter of time...
i generally feel like i have dont most of my mourning already, but its never nice news to receive...

not able to use babble expert
8:40 am
mattygroves
I don't think I like this grid
8:40 am
mattygroves
I'm using expert
8:40 am
periwinkle
I wish I was but for some reason it stopped working. Lickety even sent me another one and that didn't work either
8:40 am
periwinkle
makes it so much easier to play and quicker too
8:41 am
Alexis Elise
What is Babble expert?
8:41 am
flosey
oh peri, did you ever ask a computer tech why it didn't work?
8:41 am
periwinkle
no, flosey
8:42 am
bfsog
peri: I'm in IT
8:42 am
periwinkle
oh, bfsog, one day it just stopped working, any hints?
8:42 am
EvaNadine
Babble Expert is something Lickety created that lets you keep track of the grid, the stats, the list...you even get a little video when you finish...
but you hafta email Lickety to get it, as its not part of official Babble...
8:42 am
flosey
Alexis, check on Resources at top of page, just above chat line, you'll find Babble Expert User Guide
8:43 am
Alexis Elise
Ok, thanks
8:43 am
mattygroves
The video never works for me
8:43 am
bfsog
I am not familar with Babble Expert, but where do you run it from? A local drive or a network? Have you always run it from that location?
8:44 am
periwinkle
it came in an e-mail to me from Lickety
8:44 am
periwinkle
and I saved it to my desktop
8:44 am
EvaNadine
bfsog -- since it gets emailed, i would assume its on a local drive. (translating for the non-technical)
:)
8:44 am
bfsog
okay, what happens when you open i?
8:44 am
periwinkle
thanks Eva, I had no idea
8:44 am
periwinkle
nothing happens
8:45 am
fuquayvarina
peri, it works with Internet Explorer, so it might help to get the latest version of IE. That worked for me when I was having trouble
8:45 am
periwinkle
it won't open
8:45 am
periwinkle
I have the latest version of IE, at least I think I do
8:45 am
pabtrek
the same thing happened to me with Babble Expert too, one day it just wouldn't open
8:45 am
fuquayvarina
It could have to do with virus protection/malware protection settings, also, since Expert has to call up IE in order for it to work.
8:46 am
bfsog
If its not opening it sounds like it may be built using a newer framework. I take it you are a Windows User. Can you forward the email Lickety sent you to me?
8:46 am
periwinkle
i recently change my virus protection but it still will not open
8:46 am
hlj25950
I can't find the link to e-mail lickety
8:46 am

I don't have the e-mail anymore, I deleted it months ago

yes I use windows

8:47 am
pabtrek
does anyone know if there is a new version of Babble Expert, the last one I had, I think was 11
8:47 am
Krista
i..been lurking for a few minutes...i think it's a case of opening an executable file..
8:47 am
bfsog
You could try disabling your Anti virus and try opening that. Remember to re-enable it though
8:47 am
periwinkle
I can ask lickety to e-mail me yet another since I have new virus protection and see what happens
8:47 am
Krista
i just got expert resent to me today...i can post the link, hold on
8:47 am
NonoNanette
11 is the most recent version
8:48 am
pabtrek
thanks Nono
8:48 am
Norma
If anyone has the icon on their desktop and knows your email address they can right click and use the facility send to....
8:49 am
NonoNanette
yeah your new anti virus could be blocking it peri
8:49 am
bfsog
Anti virus, or firewall.
8:49 am

it did not work with my old anti virus either

8:53 am

peri, i just posted a link!
8:53 am

i never realized there was an option to do that...
not that im claiming to be super-techy (though, as a software tester, people seem to think i am!)
but thats pretty neat-o :)
8:53 am

*invisble to Peri* LOL
8:55 am

I used it Krista and now have Babble Expert, thank you very much

I came on at the right time... Wow- Thanks Krista
8:55 am
DR1965
I have been waiting for lickety to send it to me
8:56 am
Krista
DR...realized i didnt write your email address down..was going to forward the email
8:56 am
bfsog
peri you have mail
8:56 am
DR1965
I got it from your post-
8:57 am
Krista
hope I am not doing something unkosher by doing that..am wondering now if he was keeping track of who had it for testing purposes..his email says to let him know of any bugs with it
8:57 am
Krista
i meant earlier..remebered i told you i'd forward it..just heard from him this morning
8:57 am
DR1965
HE will be fine.. I had it before
8:58 am
Krista
it is so nice to have it again
8:58 am
Uniquity
I think that it was just so that people who weren't pro didn't have unlimited access to it (as I once was told that expert is only for those who went pro). Although, I had it without pro for ages...:S
8:58 am
Norma
Peri did you receive it ok I emailed it to you ???
8:59 am
bfsog
Hmm, maybe he sent it to Peri as an executable and not archive it (zip, rar, etc) some email programs quarantine executables incaseof viruses etc
8:59 am
Krista
i see Uni..so I prob shouldnt have posted it here
8:59 am
Norma
bfsog can you say that again in English lol ;o)
9:00 am
Krista
yes, that's what I said earlier, bf..prob has to do with the executable file, or peri didnt know how to open it..
9:00 am
Alexis Elise
Wow. I think I've got expert figured out and it's awesome! Thank you so much!
9:00 am
Uniquity
I wouldn't worry Krista, I have also been told the opposite - that anyone could use expert. Maybe let him know that you posted it if concern
ed?
9:00 am
Norma
Best thing since sliced bread lol
9:01 am
Alexis Elise
Just feeding my addiction
9:01 am
Krista
yes, i'll do that..i'll obsess about it now, lol
9:01 am
bfsog
Through work we send out files to our customers and deal with lots of internet providers and its a nightmare getting the files to our customers without the email providers stripping data out of our files
9:01 am
fuquayvarina
Within Expert, there is a message from Lickety, encouraging people to go Pro to support Babble, so he coudn't have meant to exclude non-pros entirely
9:01 am
Krista

Morbier is a semi-soft cows' milk cheese of France named after the small village of Morbier in Franche-Comté. It is ivory colored, soft and slightly elastic, and is immediately recognizable by the black layer of tasteless ash separating it horizontally in the middle. It has a rind that is yellowish, moist, and leathery.
Traditionally, the cheese consists of a layer of morning milk and a layer of evening milk. When making Gruyère de Comté, cheesemakers would end the day with leftover curd that was not enough for an entire cheese. Thus, they would press the remaining evening curd into a mold, and spread ash over it to protect it overnight. The following morning, the cheese would be topped up with morning milk. Nowadays, the cheese is usually made from a single milking with the ash added for tradition.

more info found on google for morbier cheese Today, the dark band is more for decoration and may not be a real ash layer, unless it is made in the traditional manner of years past. The cheese can be bland and very mild to sweet and fruity in flavor with a pungent yeast-like aroma. Morbier cheese can be served as an appetizer on crackers or with chutney added to enhance the flavor. It is a good cheese to serve on crackers or with bread served fresh or melted over the bread. And, it also serves well on grilled foods. Raclette cheese can be used as a substitute if desired.

Mmmm. Sounds good, Leigh. And I don't even like pot roast!

Oops. Looks like two batteries. Doubt we have any spares in the house. Drat!
3:03 pm

I probably would like your pot roast, Leigh. Food always tastes better when someone else cooks it! :)
3:05 pm

We're having fish filets for dinner. I really should be making my collard greens right now (before I eat the rest of the bacon I've been saving for it).

3:08 pm

may sound really dumb but what is collard greens?
3:09 pm
Judi
Yeah, Tor. I could eat a bucket full. I would probably regret that though.
3:10 pm
Judi
It's a traditional southern green, Louise. Although I'm not southern and don't really live in a southern state, they sell them here and they are really cheap. So, it's a delicious, healthy veggie that's easy to make.
3:11 pm
louise1980
cool, is it a bit like spinach?
3:12 pm
Judi
Tall, wide leafy dark green with a fairly firm stem. It is a bit like spinach only heartier I'd say. I cook it up until it is tender in a bit of chicken stock and milk. Then add bits of bacon and a sprinkling of salt and vinegar.

Had to call Apple support this am, and reached an Indian (as in not native american)- I guess even Apple has outsourced their support...and other than rebooting the Mac he wasn't much help... still have issues but they'll be cleared in due time...

by the 7th grade, several of us top rank were sabotaging our instruments 'cuz the band instructor smoked and when he "borrowed" our instruments, they were returned with a huge distaste...if the clarinets didn't play, except on challenge days, he couldn't "borrow" our instruments. We were of course sent to the principal'
