$39 for a Four-Hour Photography Workshop on Thursday, August 9, 5:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. ($229 Value)

Professional photographer and creative dynamo Chris shares his expert technical knowledge and infectious zeal for the visual arts with aspiring shooters in Betterphoto Workshop's all-day workshops. Each four-hour romp through the universe of photo taking gives participants a crash course in proper shooting, which instills the ABCs and ROYGBIVs of general photography. Eye-opening tutorials include navigating capture lags, calibrating exposure settings, and understanding the rules of composition, which dictate that one can only take pictures of symmetrical faces. In addition to shooting techniques, students learn how to use digital cameras effectively and handle photo equipment with care. With a conscientious interest in fielding questions and an animated-but-casual teaching style, Chris believes he can help anyone be a better everyday paparazzo no matter what kind of camera they walk in with.

Betterphoto Workshop

Reflecting on this childhood, Chris sometimes feels as if he didn't exist. His parents' divorce left him with very little tangible evidence of his formative years, so he's spent his adult life as a photographer making sure children can look back fondly at warm family memories. Chris and his Calgary staff have made this a reality for more than 3,000 families since opening the doors to Towne Photography in 2006. There, the professional photographic crew shoots posed and candid shots of families, children, couples, and babies at picturesque parks or against their studio backdrops, and they also snap triumphant graduate portraits, intimate prenatal shots, and provocative passport pics that make border crossing a breeze. Their ironclad guarantee allows unsatisfied clients to request reshoots, reprints, or resizing on all photographs, and they vow to remake or recapture any artwork that sustains damage over the years. Chris also takes his photographic knowledge on the road to conduct Betterphoto Workshops across the United States and Canada, teaching novice photographers how to artistically preserve their most precious memories.

The Groupon Guide to: Cheating at Board Games

A rainy afternoon of board games is a great way to shred a family dynamic or discern who in your social circle has other issues in their lives that drive them to hound petty victories over their friends. Tip the balance with this guide to board-game cheating:

Scramble (Harsbo, 1948): In this game, billed to the scant demographic of literate children in the 1940s as “the crossword puzzle you build yourself,” you can easily secure victory by preemptively removing any dictionaries from your home and inventing long, complex words with vague definitions, such as quizlix: “a medical term, often used by highly intelligent Scramble players.”

Boatleshoot (Marshall Bradford, 1967): This guessing game of naval warfare is just like regular warfare—once you’re surrounded by it, there are no rules. Every time your opponent guesses a point on your grid that is a “hit,” reply instead “miss.” Your board is, after all, obscured from their view and in international waters, there is no honor system.

Chess (sixth century AD): If someone invites you to play chess, they have revealed three crucial weaknesses: they know how to play chess, they enjoy playing chess, and they have spent enough time practicing to have an expectation of victory. Cheat at chess by punching them in the face and taking anything they have that you yourself want.

What are some sure-fire ways to win at chess?
