$49 for a Digital 101 in a Day Workshop ($195 Value)

During the seven-hour fundamentals class, students demystify their DSLR cameras while picking up tips on composition, exposure, aperture, white balance, autofocus, and reducing camera shake. Along with a fully charged camera, students should bring their user’s guide, lens, memory card, a notebook, and a pen. All other supplies will be provided. Classes are held on Saturdays.

Chicago Photography Academy

Chicago Photography Academy hones photographic eyes and bulks up shutter-snapping fingers through a host of short-term and intensive classes geared to all skill levels. Students can gauge their education by personal interests and schedule, hunkering down for a one- or two-day crash course or leisurely learning during a six-hour compact-digital class that frees cameras from the yoke of automatic settings. Instructors impart a working knowledge of photo-editing software during lightroom classes, whereas introductory video sessions teach how to shoot realistic video of faked moon landings. Students can build the skills necessary to snap stunning wedding photos, or immerse themselves in the CPA's colorful curriculum with a one-year certificate programs in photography and video, each combining all of the school's classes into one linear progression. Classes include all necessary supplies for printing images, and do not require shutterbugs to purchase additional lenses or retro fedora hats.

The Groupon Guide to: Types of Potatoes

When making your first foray into advanced potato dishes, you may be asked by your cookbook to use a specific kind of potato because of its unique color, texture or starchiness. Parse your tubers with this helpful potato guide:

Russet Potatoes
* Shape: Potato-shaped
* Skin, Flesh: Traditional “potato brown” skin that peels semifreely from a dry flesh that ranges from white to yellow
* Best Uses: Blanched to tenderness before being chucked at parked cars as a goof

French Fingerling
* Shape: Potato-shaped (smaller)
* Skin, Flesh: Waxy pink skins conceal yellow flesh
* Best Uses: Ironically, these “French” potatoes cannot be french-fried as they immediately dissolve if exposed to any manner of liquid and are therefore primarily fed raw to horses or chucked at parked cars for a laugh

Bananas
* Shape: Hilarious
* Skin, Flesh: Sturdy yellow rind protecting soft white flesh
* Best Uses: Cut up in a bowl of cereal, blend into a smoothie to add a creamy texture and mild flavor, or chuck at parked cars on a lark

Which potato is the best for throwing at cars?
