Becker College elevates video games to another level Walter Bird Jr. Jose Canseco, the former Major League slugger signed by the Worcester Tornadoes, doesn’t last a full season, switching teams despite being out with an injury since mid-June. The Tornadoes maintain Canseco wasn’t a publicity stunt; Canseco maintains he still can hit a ball even though he left town with a .194 batting average and one home run. +1 More fires strike the Pleasant Street/ Piedmont neighborhood over the weekend, likely related to the rash of arsons and dumpster fires reported in the area since last winter. -3 The upstart Worcester Roller Derby (WoRD) League hosts their first derby tournament in Auburn, with 11 teams across New England skating, blocking and jamming their way around the track. +2 MBTA promises seven more roundtrip trains between Worcester and Boston planned for later this year while Lt. Gov. Tim Murray says one or two could be express trains that only stop in Framingham. That same day, JetBlue CEO Dave Barger tweets that he’ll be visiting Worcester Regional Airport in August, just a month after MassPort and the U.S. Department of Transportation discuss potential upgrades at the airfield. +3 U.S. Army training exercises in Lincoln Square puzzle and scare residents unaccustomed to seeing sleek black helicopters and troops swarming around North Main Street. City officials say they were informed of the training session, though they weren’t given a specific date and time. 0 The Hanover Theatre announces that “The Price is Right” will stop in Worcester as the live show tours the country. Tickets for the October 16 show go on sale on Friday, August 10. +1 Former Worcester mayor and current City Councilor Konnie Lukes appears in a Scott Brown TV ad while Elizabeth Warren stops by her Park Avenue office to greet volunteers.

Game Concept for its game, “Nanoswarm.” Team members are Emil Ritter, a Becker student; James McCarthy, from Rensselear Polytechnic Institute (RPI) in Troy, N.Y.; and Ali Swei, Christopher Gengler and brothers Jonathan and Andrew Niemi, all attending Becker. As part of their prize they are further developing their game — which is loosely based on the TV show “Lost” — at the Becker studio. Last week was a big one for 80HD: The team was submitting the game to the online Apple store for approval and hopes to have it available for download soon. The ambition does not stop there: 80HD plans to become a company,
floor nurse and doctor. Just as they would in an actual ER, players must move from patient to patient and do so in an allotted time. There’s a twist, however: They are allotted a certain number of “budget points,” so the more time spent making diagnoses, for example, the more points they expend. While the game at this point is intended for classroom use, the team said it might eventually be mass marketed. Team members were able to suggest what games they wanted to work on, but not everyone got what they wanted. That may have ended up being a good thing, according to Harrington. “This was my last choice,” he says. “Now I see the potential of what this game could be. Games have boomed over the past 10 years and I’m seeing them become a part of different industries.” The third team is Energy Drive, which is also the name of the game being
f you are looking for evidence that video games won’t turn your brain to mush, pay a visit to Becker College in Worcester. For students like Andrew Niemi, gaming — as it is called — is a career path and the fulfillment of a lifelong dream. “I played (video games) and always dreamed of owning my own company,” says Niemi, who will be a junior at Becker this fall. “I was playing Mario Brothers, and I always wanted to make a game like that.” He is getting his chance. So are many others who look at video games STEVEN KING in a whole different way than many of us. For them, the games are a learning tool that can save lives — literally. Worcester Polytechnic Institute senior Cordell Zebrose, for example, is working on a “serious” video game called “On Call.” It’s being designed in collaboration with UMass Medical School to improve communication between nursing and medical students. Niemi and Zebrose are two of 18 students in the Summer Innovation Program (SIP) at Becker College’s Massachusetts Digital Games Institute (Mass DiGi). Mass DiGi was started in 2011 as a statewide center for “academic cooperation, economic development, Top: A screen shot of the game “On Call.” and job creation across the Above: Visitors from nine different colleges walk visitors through their Massachusetts digital and video video games at Becker College. games ecosystem,” according to executive director Timothy developed.

ant a new app? There’s a place for that. There is a good chance you have used a mobile application designed by AndPlus Inc. – or will very soon. The 10-year old business is making a splash in the high-tech world of mobile apps, realizing that more and more people are relying on their iPhones and Androids to do much more than call a friend. In fact, handheld devices are changing the way people live their lives and businesses do business. The future, according to AndPlus president and CEO Sean Mahoney, is now. “I forgot my wallet at home the other day,” Mahoney, a graduate of Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI), says inside his office in the Commerce building on Main Street, “but I had my phone. I never forget that.” People, he says, are extremely protective of their high-tech phones. And with technology seemingly advancing every day, people are finding less need for what they used to carry in their pockets — like a wallet. Mahoney envisions a time when credit cards and licenses aren’t needed in their plastic form. “There’s a long way to go before the wallet is replaced, but we’re on the way,” he says. Mahoney sees his company at the forefront of technological advancements such as mobile applications, although he and his staff of 10 full-timers do more than design new apps. The company focuses on three areas: mobile applications, website development and custom software. It has worked on websites with some heavy hitters, including the Phantom Gourmet and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation
(RWJF), the nation’s largest nonprofit dedicated solely to health care. For the Phantom Gourmet, AndPlus developed a mobile website and, according to Mahoney, is in the process of designing a mobile app. On the software end of things, AndPlus integrates software for companies who require different programs to communicate with each other. There can’t be enough technology for Mahoney, who says, “This is the world I want to live in. This is what I’ve been looking forward to.” Having his company based in Worcester is a return to his roots, of sorts, for Mahoney, who grew up in Tampa, Fla. His grandfather owned Mahoney Furniture on Cambridge Street and Mahoney ended up going to school and graduating from WPI. “I had family in the area,” he says. “I stuck around in Worcester, met my wife and got my master’s from WPI.” Mahoney jokes that, at a certain point he ran “flat out of money and could have just as easily ended up opening a paint shop as a
software development company.” Instead, he taught at the Boston University Center of Digital Imaging Arts. He was already doing work as a Web developer, and in 2008 Mahoney took the plunge and started running AndPlus full-time. “It’s been a fun ride, and it’s all here in Worcester,” he says. “Our firm is just amazing at everything it does. We’re starting to give great service to our clients.” Of the three areas the company focuses on, mobile development is clearly its bread and butter, and there’s a simple reason for that, according to Mahoney. “It is the future,” he says. “Not only are these devices extremely personal to people, they’re going to replace every form of communication you have. I mean who has a home phone, anymore? I don’t.” More businesses turn to mobile applications as a way to grow their customer base. The newspaper industry has been among those taking notice. continued on page 8

which Mass Energy is most excited. That is why it hosted the turbine festival at Holy Name – the third time it has done so – where the clean-energy message it promotes was clear. The only sour note at the festival was the turbine, which was not working. “It happens about once a year,” says Reynolds, noting the most recent stoppage occurred two weeks ago.
he wind turbine that towers over Holy Name High School has been doing its thing since October 2008 and has been doing it quite well, according to headmaster Ed Reynolds. The turbine provides 95 percent of the energy the school uses, and when the final payments are made on STEVEN KING the nearly $2 million project, Reynolds says Holy Name will realize up to $200,000 annually in energy-cost savings. In addition to saving money, the turbine has won over at least one skeptic — the headmaster, himself. “I’m new to renewable energy,” Reynolds told about 20 people at a recent wind turbine festival at the school. “If you ever told me I’d be involved in this program, I’d have said you’ve got the wrong guy.” Reynolds has seen the turbine do more than deliver energy to Holy Name – it has also been a revenue source. The school sells renewable energy credits to the nonprofit Mass Energy Consumers Alliance, an organization that, through a partnership with National Grid, offers its members renewable energy and home heating oil programs. Holy Name earns about $30,000 a year selling the credits, which offsets maintenance costs of about $10,000 to $15,000 a year, according to Reynolds. People gather near the wind turbine at Holy Name is just one of Holy Name High School during the festival the partners with Mass Energy hosted by Mass Energy on Aug. 2. in Massachusetts and Rhode Island.

According to Mass colleague, Green Energy director Stephan Energy executive director Larry Chretien, Wollenburg, shares. While customers have the organization buys renewable energy other options besides Mass Energy, such wholesale and sells it retail.

real life. Like “On Call,” this game is also geared toward teaching and learning. The team hopes to see it implemented in middle schools and used by energy companies. Energy Drive is shooting for an Aug. 10 publishing date. Team members are Steve Everitt, a student at Champlain College in Burlington, Vt.; Dylan Mayerchak from Northeastern University, Brian Little of Becker College, and Dan Cherkasskey, a student at Mount Ida College in Newton. Everitt sees his work as a challenge to appeal to gamers who might otherwise not choose a serious game. “A lot of serious games lose focus of the game aspect,” he says. “Energy Drive has a message, but you can interact with it like a game. You don’t feel like you’re being preached to. You happen to be playing a game that has a message.” The program and real-life experience of working in a production studio will benefit students down the road if videogame development becomes a career, Loew says, adding this year’s SIP has been a success. “We’ve had a good year,” he says. “We’ve hit everything in our three-year plan in the past 18 months. We hope to expand the program next year.”
“We’re seeing a move in newspapers to do what we did with the Phantom Gourmet,” Mahoney says, citing the Washington Post as an example. Readers can download the Post, and in turn they allow the newspaper to post articles you have read directly to their Facebook account. It is just one of the advances about which Mahoney is excited. “I feel like we’re doing things in Worcester [that] not many other firms can do,” he says. “I feel like maybe we can pave the way.” Mahoney’s marketing director, Brian Geary, admits he is passionate about the company’s work on mobile applications, but there isn’t much he doesn’t like about AndPlus. “It’s really cool, it’s fun,” says Geary. “I like the industry.” The one area in which AndPlus doesn’t dabble is video games, and that’s just fine by Mahoney. “We’re not here making Angry Birds,” he says. “What people have is the ability to work better. We’re helping people do their jobs better. It’s pretty cool to know people are bettering their lives through a personal device that can pretty much do whatever you want to do.”

energy sources like oil. Today, there are about 15,000 members in Mass Energy’s heating oil program. “Our mission is to make energy more affordable and environmentally sustainable,” says Wollenburg. “We’re in a great position to talk to people about more energy-efficient programs.” Wollenburg says MassEnergy hasn’t dealt with Worcester officials in its work with Holy Name and was not aware of any specific wind programs in the city, but notes, “Worcester is doing cool energy-incentive programs. Even we will be the first to admit energy-efficiency is the first tool.” A request for comment from City Manager Michael O’Brien was not returned. Both Chretien and Wollenburg acknowledge the critics of alternativeenergy sources like wind power, some of whom cite noise and flicker shadows as major concerns. Wollenburg admits Holy Name’s turbine is “a somewhat singular site because of its elevation and good setback from residences.” Other communities, such
as Falmouth, are engaged in debate over wind turbines. The Cape Wind project off Nantucket Sound also generated controversy. “I think the record shows, in most cases, opponents of these projects are a distinct minority,” Chretien says. “I don’t think we can say it’s unpopular.” For Reynolds, the wind turbine was the right choice. It will, he says, provide 25 to 30 years of use. The loan will be paid off in about 15 years (the school pays about $100,000 a year toward the loan). All the while, students in the seventh and eighth grades use the turbine to study energy. The school’s AP Physics class also incorporates it into its studies. People like West Boylston’s Steve Lacaire see wind power and other forms of alternative energy as an unavoidable option. “We don’t have a choice,” he says. “[Traditional energy] is a finite source, and we’re a hostage to other countries. There’s so much here that can be produced.”

Janice
Harvey
Nonna and Nana Janice Harvey
I
didn’t mean to eavesdrop; honestly, I didn’t. Winding my way through the congested racks of the Lincoln Plaza Target, I couldn’t help but overhear the conversation between the middleaged woman and the small boy. He asked little-boy questions that she answered in a patient, gentle manner as she thumbed through the markdowns. He inquired about the possibility — just maybe? — she might buy him bubble soap, and she told him, yes, because he was such a good boy. He called her “Nonna.” Impulsively, I approached them. “I hope you don’t mind, but I’ve been listening to you and your grandson chat, and, well… it touched me. I’m about to be a grandmother soon, myself — a boy — I’m going to be “Nana”… and, well…” I stammered. I felt foolish. Here I was, pestering a stranger who simply wanted to get some shopping done. Yet, I was drawn to them, imagining the day when baby Jack and I might embark on retail adventures together. “Oh! My goodness! He’s my third grandchild! I’m an old pro,” she laughed. She asked about my own yet-to-be-born grandbaby, when he is due. Soon we were exchanging all manner of stories regarding childbirth. I relayed the stressful months my daughter has endured, the worry over what appears to be a cleft lip, the frustration of trying to turn a breeched baby who seems to be quite comfy sitting upright with his feet in his face. As her grandson amused himself in the three-way mirror, she explained in a lower register that he is a miracle, of sorts. “He was born with spinal meningitis,” she confided. “My daughter-in-law had a fever during birth, and they discovered that she had somehow contracted e-coli.”
My eyes widened as I watched the three-year-old play one-man hide-and-seek, ducking behind the mirror and popping out to surprise the little boy in the glass. “They said there could be seizures, brain damage, all kinds of side effects from the medications needed to kill the meningitis. Look at him. I swear he’s the smartest of the three.” “The doctors and nurses at UMass/Memorial were incredible,” she told me. I explained that I too was familiar with their phenomenal care, having spent four days there with my daughter during an early-labor scare. So many parallels in our lives, we marveled. She took her boy by the chin, telling him she wanted to check for dirt. What she really wanted to do was show me his small red birthmark, a cluster of capillaries that formed a berry on his lower lip. “It was much more prominent as an infant,” she whispered. “It’s fading.” By the time we parted, we’d covered the topics of alcoholism, divorce, plastic surgery, the high cost of weddings and the wisdom of hindsight. I thought to myself: This is what women do. Men don’t connect and share as easily; in fact, I was fairly certain that most men would think it silly for us to still be chatting like old friends. But something about this woman and this little boy had pulled at me, made me want to know more about them. “By the way, I’m Janice,” I said, as her grandson tugged at her pant leg. He’d been incredibly wellbehaved, more than any Nonna could expect from a boy of three. “Thanks so much for chatting with me. I’m sorry to take up your time.” She shook my outstretched hand. “I’m Patty,” she smiled. And as they headed to the aisle where Nonna promised bubble soap could be found, I heard her call to the boy: “Stay with me, Jack,” and I knew then that I’d met them for a reason.

Gunsmoke
In the story “Local tunes” that ran in the August 2, 2012 issue of Worcester Mag Zack Slik was incorrectly spelled Zack Slick in photo cutlines.
In regards to gun ownership more regulations are needed, not less. The right to bear arms is connected to a well regulated militia; a group of citizens who use guns in times of emergency and crisis in local and state government. The militia is a well regulated unit of citizens, not a lone gunman capable of vigilantism against innocent citizens. More regulations and accountability are needed in the sale and ownership of guns. Gun crimes should stir outrage, not silence! Random shootings of citizens by a lone gunman should not be tolerated. More regulations and accountability are needed immediately. It’s time for the insane killings to stop. No one needs to own weapons of mass destruction! A LV IN SA N T E E Sutton
In the August 2, 2012 issue of Worcester Mag in the Dining section we listed Pho 2000 as a recommended restaurant. Pho 2000 is no longer in business. We do not recommend trying to eat there. The July 19 ‘Bites” column contained two errors regarding the former Cafe Espresso location at 19 Wall Street. It should have read: The space that formerly housed Caffe Espresso Trattoria is getting a new look and a new name, Mare & Monte, which means sea and mountain. Mare & Monte should open up after renovations are completed, and has no affiliation with the current Caffe Espresso Trattoria at 395 Chandler Street. Worcester Mag regrets the errors.

CITY COUNCIL It’s a Tuesday night and you’d like to mix a little civic engagement in with your evening plans. Thankfully, Worcester’s channel 12 and worcesterma.gov live broadcast every scintillating minute of the near-weekly City Council meetings, in which eleven city councilors (including the Mayor), City Manager and various cabinet and department heads all gather to discuss pertinent legislative and executive issues facing the city. Sure, sometimes the meetings move at a slower pace than the Canal District street-scaping project, but for all the conversations about retirement fund investments, monetary transfers between obscurely named bank accounts and pages of reports and informational communication that pass by without comment or readings, city officials balance the bland and the bureaucracy with their own agendas and grievances. After a few meetings you’ll soon get to know each councilor and their tics, tactics and why there are so many 10-1 votes. Except for the hot-button issues that crop up three or four times per year, these meetings hardly draw an audience, live or over the air. To help get Worcesterites engaged with the civic locomotive that is their 11 councilors, Worcester Mag offers up City Council Bingo! So at 7:00 this Tuesday night turn on channel 12, go to worcesterma.gov or head down to City Hall with your bingo card in tow. It’s the only game in town where you’re guaranteed that playing along with your district councilor won’t lead to any ethics violations.

A
my Lynn Chase, known as Punky in the style arena, began fashionable risk taking at an early age. As a child, the style pioneer would beg her father to take her to thrift stores so she could hunt for â&#x20AC;&#x153;old stuffâ&#x20AC;?; unknowingly those ďŹ rst fantastic ďŹ nds amassed to begin her vintage collection. Never wanting to wear what the crowd donned (even in elementary school), Chaseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fashion rebellion would lead her on a lifelong relationship with the funky fashion world. Already owner of mobile thrift store Haberdash Vintage and the soon-to-be antique and artisan store Crompton Collective, slated to open in the Canal District of Worcester this September, Chase now is opening a second mobile store, Boho Bus.

Chase has certainly made a name for herself in the fashion world. Just four years after the creation of her fashion blog, PunkyStyle.com, Chase began to search for suitable space for a retail store and fell in love with a storefront in the heart of Worcester’s Canal District; she was crushed, however, when she heard the space had just been rented to another shop. The slight setback was exactly what propelled Chase to hold off on a permanent home. “Knowing that the Canal District was where I wanted to be, I decided to hold off on the retail space and do something a little more risky,” she explains. She went mobile. Using a 1954 Bellwood trailer as a home for her Haberdash Vintage shop was the perfect way for Chase to discover where the market for her vintage clothing resided. The year 2009 not only marked the birth of Haberdash Vintage, but also another venture—an event company called The Swapaholics. Teaming up with Melissa Massello of Shoestring Magazine, the two vintage mavens collaborated to create swap events where passionate fashionistas could come together to share or swap. Since The Swapaholics inception, Chase and Massello have co-hosted hundreds of these events around the country. These two companies kept her busy, but even so, finding a stationary retail space on the same block in the Canal District where she fell in love three years earlier was still a priority. Her patience paid off; Chase is finally planting roots with the opening of her antiques and art store, Crompton Collective. As busy as Chase is preparing for Crompton Collective’s September opening, she still has found time to launch the Boho Bus (B.B. for short). “The bus was a summer project I decided to start on a whim while waiting for Crompton Collective to open. I’m the type of person who needs to keep busy... really busy!” Finding a yellow bus on eBay, Chase drove nine hours to New York to pick up the vehicle earlier this summer. Describing B.B. as “the bohemian little sister of The Haberdash,” the hippie threads were an enormous inspiration by her own bohemian-chic mother. “My mom is always asking if items in my closet were hers. We’ve both been known to rock some flowered headbands and bell bottoms,” explains Chase. After so much notoriety in the fashion world, it may be puzzling to some that Chase keeps coming back to her Worcester origins; but for the Worcesterite, the allegiance runs deep. “Unless you grew up here, it’s hard to understand the loyalty you feel toward this city. If I didn’t believe in this city, I wouldn’t plant roots here. Worcester is full of talented people, and I’m excited to surround myself with them,” Chase affirms. In fact, she’s hoping that Crompton Collective will offer an appealing venue to Worcester collectors, crafters and artisans to showcase and sell their items. To learn more about Haberdash Vintage and Boho Bus, visit haberdashvintage.com. For more information on Crompton Collective, visit cromptoncollective.com. Also, if you or someone you know is an artist or antique dealer looking for a venue to sell your wares, email CromptonCollective@gmail.com to become involved with the Sept. 1 opening at 138 Green St.

OMIGOD - Legally Blonde has arrived Ben Ryland
When “Legally Blonde” arrived on Broadway on April 29, 2007, the media thought it was a joke. They were wrong. It filled the huge Palace Theatre in Times Square with thousands of nightly ticket buyers until the following summer, earned several Tony Award nominations, produced a popular Original Cast recording, ran until October 2008 and it also made the million-dollar club several times at the box office in performance weeks.
26
Just released for amateur productions, the musical is popping up all over the country and opens this weekend at Mount Wachusett Community College’s Theatre at the Mount in Gardner. According to director Rob Houle the theater is almost a wing of the college with its yearround schedule of shows. Its last theater season was recently nominated for 18 Distinguished Achievement and Special Honors (DASH) awards created by the Eastern Massachusetts Association of Community Colleges. The Theatre at the Mount is about to celebrate 50 years of producing local theater, both plays and musicals since the 1960s. With its 500 seats, thrust stage and hydraulic orchestra pit, it recently staged such popular titles as “Man of La Mancha,” “Lost in Yonkers,” “Baby,” “Big River” and “Pirates of Penzance.” Houle sums up the appeal: “We try to mix up the type of shows for our different audiences with a large talent pool but utilize a college staff for lighting, sets and costumes. We use as many actors as far as the budget allows for costumes and other

2012
accessories.” Gail Steel, the theater’s managing director, is always on the lookout for new available shows and getting them booked. So why is Houle so excited about “Legally Blonde”? “It’s a great show with a sweet story and a large cast size.” Houle goes on to explain that there are other considerations for a show at the theater. “Can we expand the show with a larger cast? Is the staging accessible within our budget and can we choreograph the scene changes which tend to blend in to the next scene (like in a film dissolve) as being technically controlled by computers and automation recent Broadway show.” The plot revolves around rich valley girl, Elle, who is jilted by her longtime boyfriend when he decides to be serious when leaving to attend Harvard Law School. Elle, who is heartbroken, decides to follow him believing her fashion design degree is good enough to also get her accepted at the prestigious law school. Upon arriving, it is discovered that her ex has hooked up with a Jackie Kennedy-
type, which only inspires her to actually become a lawyer to show him that he was wrong about the California girl. With soaring ballads, joyous ensemble numbers and quirky characters—it all ends happily. Being based on a movie is one of the reasons “Legally Blonde” is such a well known vehicle. Like “WICKED” it has the young-girl appeal, but the show is enormously entertaining, funny and colorful. With music by newcomers Neil Benjamin and Lawrence O’Keefe, it’s also cleverly tuneful and you will hum the songs on the way home. In October 2007, the entire show was recorded at the Palace Theatre in New York City with an invited audience of all girls and broadcast on MTV. A rare accomplishment for a show that continued for another full year in its original run. “Legally Blonde” plays August 10, 11, 17, 18 at 8 p.m. and August 19 at 2 p.m.; tickets are $20 for adults and $10 for those younger than 17. That’s a great deal, so take the kids, they will love the show. Theatre at the Mount, 444 Green St., Gardner. For tickets call 978-637-2403.

Small plates, big taste Michael Brazell
Surrounded by historic landmarks in nearby Sturbridge, the Cedar Street Grille, offers unique twists on classic American favorites, prepared in a sharable, fingerfriendly tapas-style. Situated immediately off of Route 20 and only minutes from the I-84 Mass Pike exit, this artisan restaurant feels like it was chiseled into a cape-style house, with modern decor accenting the comfortably rustic interior. Visiting on a Wednesday night, my co-diner Victor and I made reservations through the Cedar Street Grille’s website and were seated immediately in a cozy
dining room juxtaposed to a modern, six-stool bar. The restaurant is divided into two dining rooms, neither of which is particularly large, but the small size contributes to a favorable quaintness. The menu at Cedar Street Grille predominantly features a collection of small plates divided into hot and cold categories, with a special area for sliders, and some 15 sides. While traditional entrées are also offered along with nightly specials, the tapas-focused menu is a refreshing deviation from the ordinary, and items range between $5 and $15. Victor and I quickly formed a plan to tackle the menu, ordering six items to share between the two of us. The truffle parmesan fries arrived first ($7), a basket of steaming hot fries doused in a rich and smooth truffle oil and coated delicately with strips of parmesan cheese — though, disappointingly, some of them were a little soggy. Next up, our main small plates were delivered, as Victor opted for caprese sliders ($9) and I chose a special order of fish tacos ($12). Two delicately prepared sliders, small sandwiches, arrived on a plate with warm buttered mini buns, containing a thick cut of fresh mozzarella cheese, an
enormous and warm tomato, with a zesty basil pesto sauce. Added to the caprese sandwiches were crispy curls of prosciutto, which added an excellent saltiness to each bite, without stealing from the flavors of fresh tomato and mozzarella. My fish tacos were excellent, with lightly battered cuts of flaky-white fish literally tumbling out of heavy thick shells — shells that more resembled pita pockets than your typical tortilla shell. A medley of shredded vegetables accented a tangy and slightly spicy sauce which held the tacos together. Between the two of us, we shared crashed potatoes ($7), a trendy take on your average potato skins and a dish of buffalo macaroni and cheese ($8), which while good was not much more than standard mac and cheese with chunks of mild buffalo chicken and bleu cheese. Finally, I added a very unique item simply called “crispy pig” ($9), which was described by our waitress as something akin to superbacon. This unique item was a strip of pork that was cured, braised, and fried, with an outer “shell” that was reminiscent of bacon, but a soft and chewy pork interior. The strip was laid atop a tremendously sweet hoisin

{ dining}
sauce — one more typically associated with Asian-inspired foods — making for an incredibly rich and a bit too succulent pork experience. While delicious, this is something best shared amongst four friends, as one entire strip of crispy pig is far too much for only two people. Alongside the tremendous food menu is a solid number of beers both on draught and in the bottle, with favorites from Brooklyn-based Sixpoint Brewery and the local Berkshire Brewing Company. The wine menu is not to be outdone either, as excellent wines are affordably priced both by the glass and bottle, as an excellent dry Oregon Pinot Noir from A to Z Wineworks is sold for $7. Coupling superb service with an exciting menu of truly original and unique small plates, the Cedar Street Restaurant in Sturbridge is certainly worth driving to for any Worcester diner looking to veer off the beaten path.

ew Zealand, an island country located in the southwestern Pacific Ocean, is currently ranked as the eighth happiest country in the world. And why not? After all, it produces what many would consider the finest version of Sauvignon Blanc on the planet. In the 1980s, wineries in New Zealand began producing outstanding Sauvignon Blanc. Like a child who inherits the best of both parents, New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc is noted for its exotic aromas and firm acidity. A chilled glass of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc is pure bliss. Both refreshing and flavorful, this wine is a true crowd pleaser. The region most noted for this marvelous wine is Marlborough, which is located in the Northeastern corner of the country. A combination of climate and soil has made Marlborough ideal for growing this varietal. In addition the country has been a leader in the use of stainless tanks during the wine-making process. The wines can range from as little as $7 to as much as $40. In each case you get quite a bang for the buck. New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc is a year round favorite that matches well with white meats, from fish and shellfish to chicken and pork. If that weren’t enough, try pairing a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc with cheese. You may never be the same again. Other parts of the country are producing exquisite wine as well: Canterbury, Auckland and Gisborne, just to name a few. In addition, New Zealand is noted for very good Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. But it is unmistakably the Sauvignon Blanc that will have you coming back for more. OF THE WEEK Some well-regarded labels include Cloudy Bay, Villa Maria, Private Kim Crawford and Brancott. So put a little zeal Bin Sauvignon Blanc back in your life with a New Zealand Sauvignon 2011, about $15. Blanc.

Many Vietnamese restaurants offer a particularly special frozen treat that more people should check out: Fruit Smoothies in the usual fruit flavors, such as strawberry, pineapple, coconut, as well as some Asian STEVEN KING specialties like mung bean, jack fruit, avocado, and durian with tapioca pearls. Katie and I put Pho Lam, formerly Pho 54 before reopening in June under a new name and management, on Stafford Street, to the smoothie test and were extremely pleased with our findings. Katie went the more traditional route of mixing strawberry and pineapple, while I went for the jack fruit. Both drinks had excellent fruit saturation and with the crushed ice, it made for a good consistency. The strawberry pineapple tasted as expected and the jack fruit had almost a meloncitrus-vanilla flavor that was refreshing and sweet. The blended fruit contrasted well with the chewy, vanillalike “bubbles” of tapioca. About a quarter- to half-an-inch in diameter, the pearls sit in about an inch to an inch-and-a-half layer at the bottom of the drink, and you slurp them up with the smoothie through a wide straw. My smoothie had freshly made tapioca, making the pearls a little warm and even more pudding-like. If you’ve never tried the Vietnamese smoothie with tapioca pearls, Pho Lam is a good place to treat yourself to this unusual indulgence.

months of painting assets, I had to throw them all away and repaint every piece of art used in the game; there are hundreds.
Heard of the Brothers Grimm? What about the Father and Son Grimm? Well if you haven’t yet, you will want to. Kevin Grimm, 51, and Chris Grimm, 23, are the father-son duo who started Earl Gray Entertainment and together they created the iPad game, MILQ. When we heard about them, we had to put our games on pause and ask them a few questions about video games, MILQ, and what it’s like to work as a father and son team. How did you become involved in video games and game design? CG: I’ve always loved video games. It
was always a dream to be able to make my own, but I never had the skill set to do it. However, after I graduated from the University of Connecticut with a political science degree, I just couldn’t find a job. I bought some books, taught myself some programming languages, and called my dad and ask him if he wanted to make a game. I thought to myself, “If I can’t get a job with my degree, why don’t I just do what I always wanted to do?” KG: It’s one of the few things that I had never done while working as a creative director but always wanted to try.
Why is your start-up called Earl Gray Entertainment? CG: I started a website that sold
T-Shirts in college called Earl Gray Tees. My dad had made a great logo for it. When we started our game studio, we just loved the logo and the name so much that we recycled it.
What is it like working with your father/ son? CG: It’s quite the experience. I knew
getting into the project it was going to be a lot of work, but there really were very few times during the process that it felt like work. I think that had a lot
How did you obtain the resources to create and market an iPad game? CG: My dad actually pretty
to do with the fact that we were family and didn’t have the typical business relationship people might have. KG: It’s a great experience for me to be able to work with my son. I think Christopher and I realized early that we have chemistry between us. We have a lot of fun just brainstorming and developing new ideas for games. The whole concept of MILQ came out of our ability to laugh and bounce crazy ideas off of each other. We are both very passionate about the quality of our work. The two of us practically lived at the office while building MILQ, redoing sections of the game over and over until they were right, sometimes putting in 90 hours a week.
mechanical cows before coming to earth to find and abduct real cows. One of the best features of the game is the B.O.M.B.—Bovine Omnidirectional Massive Blast. It lets you blow up barns and trees to find the hiding cows!
Tell us a little bit about MILQ. CG: On the distant alien planet called
perspective, the biggest challenge is the fairly limited resources an iPad has. You really have to make sure you take your processing power and memory into account, because it runs out pretty quickly compared to a typical desktop computer. KG: From the art side of things it’s been a real challenge to create the artwork for the different size screens. The iPhone and the iPad are different resolutions and slightly different dimensions. To make things worse, right in the middle of building MILQ, the new iPad retina came out. Its screen was a higher resolution than any of the artwork I had created for MILQ. After
Kindia, a scientist, Dr. Krevin Ookie, invented the perfect snack. He called it the Kookie, but there was something missing. After much research he discovered the missing ingredient, a mystical and holy substance on a small planet in the Milky Way, it was called Milk. In the game, you play as KLIM, a young alien UFO pilot, who comes to earth to abduct cows for their milk. The cows don’t go quietly. They form the Dairy Resistance and fight back. There is a rich story woven throughout the game. You train on the alien planet, learning to fly your ship and catch

Dirsa-Morin
How did you come up with the idea for MILQ? KG: We knew what our limitations were when we started thinking of ideas for making a game. Chris and I sat down and the idea sort of just emerged. We had a lot of fun working out the story idea.
Are there special challenges that come with creating a game for the iPad? CG: From the programming
much covered it. The boundary for entering the market right now is probably the lowest it’s ever been. You really just have to have the drive to do it. We spent less than $1,000 on everything we needed for making our game, and most of that money was on a couple different iPads so we could test it. As far as marketing goes, we relied heavily on social media such as Facebook and Twitter to spread the word.
What are your future plans? KG: We actually had a MILQ sequel in the works, but after much discussion, we decided to move on to a more complex game format. We’re developing a very original first-person shooter with full 3D environments.
Any tips for people looking to break into the video game business? CG: Right now is a great time to do it, especially as an Indie game developer. There is tons of information and help out there for anybody who has the motivation to find it and use it. From the Indie perspective, it’s most important that you make a game you care about. KG: Thinking it’s easy to make a good game could lead to failure. It is months of hard work and real dedication. Planning every detail before you start is the most important step; we learned that lesson early. A few days of concepting your ideas can save you weeks of work.
