The Eve Audio SC204 2-Way 4" Active Studio Monitor incorporates innovative technology and design to deliver a truly professional monitor speaker.
The SC204 are the smallest speakers in the EVE Audio range with a 4 inch woofer, and are ideal for the home, or in music or post-production studios. The sound delivered is surprisingly big despite the small footprint, which makes these a great pair of primary or secondary reference monitors. The SC204 also have convenient threaded screw inserts on the bottom and the back to allow mounting on a regular microphone or speaker stand, and a back plate for wall mounting.
TheSC204, like all EVE Audio monitors, are built on proprietry technology to the highest standards. The results of critical listening tests, as well as technical analysis, have produced monitors that can truly deliver in the studio, as well as translate to all listening environments. Innovative features and design are common to the range, including glass fibre coated SilverCone woofers, Air Motion Tweeters, high-performance bass ports, intuitive DSP control, and speaker protection.
DSP is handled by a dedicated, and electrically shielded, microcontroller that use a Burr-Brown A/D converter to digitise the analogue input, which then directly feeds the PWM-amplifiers. This simplicity results in a great-sounding monitor that can be controlled by a simple front panel knob on the speaker, and to protect the set-up from accidental tweaking the DSP can be locked by way of side-mounted DIP switches.
Bass ports have been placed at the back of the monitor, and have been tuned to get the best possible punch from the low end at all volume levels. This coupled with the stiff honeycombed drivers deliver serious power but retain the crispness and tightness that is required. To protect the AMT ribbon tweeter a magnetically attached protection grille or "Grid" can be snapped into place and removed as and when desired.
All of this great innovation makes the EVE Audio SC204 2-Way 4" Active Monitors the perfect choice for professional producers and engineers, combining high-quality design with practical features and complete sonic control.
The main features of the EVE Audio SC204 2-Way 4" Active Monitors include:

This weeks challenge is to add Polka Dots in some way and here is my creation:
So what other gorgeous things did I use that are now retiring, sniff sniff. I used one of the Gorgeous Grunge stamps to stamp my Powder Pink background (psst, that's a new incolour) plus added some sparkle with the gold wink of stella, which is also going.
I finished everything off with some sequins behind my "hug" framelit and made it into a shaker card . The sentiment is also from a new stamp set called This Little Piggy, It's such a fun little set and I'm sure you can guess what creature features in it!!!
The retiring list really is selling like crazy and items are flying off the shelves. So please make sure you pop over to my store and check to make sure you have all your Must Have items before they sell out forever: http://bit.ly/shop-retiringlist

Wilton Police Chief Crosby announces retirement
Wilton Police Chief Robert Crosby today announced he will retire from the police department on April 3, 2017.
"It has been an honor and a privilege to serve the Town of Wilton and its Police Department for over 33 years," he said in a statement. "It has been a pleasure working with the department's officers, town government, and for Wilton residents."
He also thanked the Wilton Police Commission for granting him the opportunity to serve for two years as chief of "an exemplary police department."
"It has been an unforgettable experience," he said.
Crosby began his career with the department in July 1983 and was installed as chief on Sept. 22, 2015. At the ceremony he said, "When I was a young patrol officer in Wilton back in the early 80s, I had an aspiration to become chief of police, and I wanted to become chief of police here in Wilton, because when I start things, I like to finish them."
Crosby began his career as a patrol officer, and has held virtually every position in the department. After eight years as a patrol officer, he served seven years as youth officer. Succeeding positions included detective, sergeant, lieutenant, captain and deputy chief.
In announcing Crosby's selection to succeed former Chief Michael Lombardo, Chris Weldon, then chairman of Wilton's police commission, noted Crosby's experience and added, "Bob went to Wilton High School. He's been in town for years and years, a born- and-bred Wilton guy."

Think again.
Whereas some self-care strategies emphasize time alone to recharge, others focus on connection and engagement with the world around us.
And whereas some self-care strategies promote relaxation and rest, other promote activity, advocacy, and activism.
In addition, self-care:
- reduces everyday stress and related illness
- helps protect against– and manage– anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues
- improves patience, focus, and mindfulness
- benefits both you AND those you care for
- needn't involve bubble baths or other "spa stuff" (unless of course you want it to!)
- can be practiced one strategy at a time… Or in a SPREE!

SANAA, Yemen — A suicide bomber blew himself up during prayers at a mosque for the Eid al-Adha holiday on Thursday, killing 25 people in Yemen's capital Sanaa, security officials said.
Dozens were wounded in the blast at the al-Bolayli mosque, said the officials, who remain neutral in the conflict that has splintered the country. It is located in an area where many people support the Shiite Houthi rebels who control Sanaa.
The security officials said the suicide bomber placed an explosive device in his shoe, causing an initial explosion. As worshippers rushed to the door, he detonated himself in the middle of the crowd.

The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to brief reporters.
There were puddles of blood and debris outside the mosque, whose ornate facade was damaged by the blast. Police and some Houthi fighters came to inspect the aftermath.
Eid al-Adha is a major Muslim holiday also known as the feast of sacrifice.
Yemen has been torn by a ferocious war pitting the Houthis and forces fighting for former President Ali Abdullah Saleh against fighters loyal to President Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi, as well as southern separatists, local militias and Sunni extremists.

Last week Al Gore's Climate Reality project, went live for 24 hours over the interweb; involving thousands of viewers and 24 presenters from around the globe. As it states on the website
"The Climate Reality Project is bringing the facts about the climate crisis into the mainstream and engaging the public in conversation about how to solve it. We help citizens around the world discover the truth and take meaningful steps to bring about change."
and it did. I saw a Powerpoint presentation which showed the facts and how climate skeptics get the facts wrong, there was also video containing footage from recent natural disasters and speeches focusing on the fact this is our one planet and we have to look after it.
Issue is , this presentation was repeated every hour…
I understand that we are a diverse world and we all sleep at different times plus speak different languages and for that, some things need to be repeated. However in my mind this opportunity of 24 hours of reality fell short of what it could of been.
- Everyone has seen An Inconvenient Truth and everyone remembers it being very influential but also a long-arsed Powerpoint show. At times Climate Reality felt like an uncreative follow-up especially with its hourly repetition.
- It was aimed at educating those climate skeptics and climate denialists that it is not sun spots, volcanoes or government conspiracy but real and you couldn't help think it was also meant for those who live in the USA. (But wasn't An Inconvenient Truth doing the same?) Now a question can be, how many of these types of people watched the event? was there any way of persuading them to watch it? or did it turn out to be a 'preaching to the converted scenario'.
- Also the live video feed itself did not give much more then hourly repetition of "climate change is happening and here is the proof via graphs and natural disasters, so now is our chance to deal with it." They was no bullet points on what can be done now on the large and small scale, what action was specifically happening in the host country or even a chance to donate to climate aid charities.
Even though the website gives you links to action and you can donate to the project itself, though its not specifically aid.
- The studio presenters in the USA seemed to be a bit on the botex-side and their guests were of the old/male/white type. Whilst the 24 presenters from the world showed more diversity of backgrounds and all came from respectable climate action backgrounds.
Myself being 25, I just wished more youth were present, after all it is our future and the amount of incredible things some of us (predominantly woman) have achieved in our short lives makes us worthy of presenting with balding, bearded white guys.
Thinking of other global live events- Band Aid, Live 8 and Live Earth spring to mind and each has followed the live music concert set up and each Band Aid follow up (sorry Al Gore) has been less successfully.
A Climate Reality 2.0 really needs to not follow the same format and needs to step up a gear. You can't yet again go into stating the obvious to everyone, you need to call for action, donation being one part but als0 creating the opportunity for it to be a real social media event.
– People sharing local/national/international action of all types collaboratively using hashtags or simple maps – which could then be forwarded on to friends who live in those areas.
– Using the 24hours to actually come out with a positive step forward. For example a collaborative statement. It can start as a zero-draft then via a wiki within 24 hours a global Climate Reality deceleration on what needs to be done.
– Plus giving the webcast a more dynamic scope. It can start with the same presentation, but then has to flow onto a continuing narrative, making people want to watch the whole 24 hours (not in one go of course)
Any other ideas?
Also if Climate Reality or Al' steal any of these 3 ideas I will sue you for trillions of chocolate digestive biscuits.

A minister from Aleppo in Syria has made an impassioned plea for the world to focus on the war raging in his country.
Addressing the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland taking place in Edinburgh this week, Rev Ibrahim Nseir highlighted the kidnapping of priests and bishops, as well as violent crimes committed against ordinary Christians.
The pastor from the National Evangelical Synod of Syria and Lebanon is holding services in a fifth floor flat with no water or power as his church building was surrounded by bombs which were then detonated by anti-Christian aggressors.
He expressed thanks for prayers and practical assistance offered by the Church of Scotland and other faith communities but he called for more.
"Praying gives us a vision of the global church. Praying is very important but something else should be done. In helping refugees outside Syria the Church of Scotland plays an important role by helping to deal with that.
"Christians are dealing with huge difficulties. Christians are leaving Syria. Is the global church going to watch that? They are uprooted. This is their country. They face violence against their children and their property. They live without peace, without justice."
Rev Nseir, 44, who is a guest of the Church of Scotland's World Mission Council, says the Syrian government has ring fenced a piece of land for a new church but the congregation does not as yet have the funds to erect a building.
The Assembly also heard a first hand account of the devastation wreaked by a succession of earthquakes in Nepal. Rev Ram Kumar Budhathoki, age 40, of Nepal Ebenezer Bible College, was with his congregation when the tremors began.
He said: "The microphone went off then the light, then the ground shook slowly at first then very strongly. People started screaming and holding each other trying to stand still. Then we got out. There was dust everywhere. We found we had all survived.
"I ran to my house where my two year old son was. I found Jason and his grandmother clinging to each other, both crying."
Continuing he told the Assembly: "At this difficult time we thank you for all your support. Around 8,500 people have lost their lives, 20,000 are seriously injured. The survivors are traumatised.
"We have lost buildings and seeds are lost under the mud. We want your prayer and need practical support to rebuild the country. Please send us your help and encouragement. Please continue to keep yourselves informed about what is happening."

Greetings Old Gods!
The rewards from the campaign Galen Sunsword: Private Investigator have been distributed! All Old Gods who attended the show live or donated any amount to the campaign have earned themselves 5750 XP and 2000 Gold. Those who won the Pony Race earned themselves an additional 10,000 XP and those who bet the Characters would live doubled their experience and gold! If you managed to both win the race and take the risky bet, you earned yourself 32,140 XP Old Gods. This should dramatically change the power for those who took the risk.
The Old Gods generosity this week created 65,170 Blood Tears the highest total ever by nearly double and the Old Gods who attended or donated also added their levels to this total as well for an additional 38,434 Blood Tears for a total of 106,508 Blood Tears from this campaign. This is the most Blood Tears you have earned yet Old Gods. It may be possible now for your Old God to gain an additional level or two before they are born into this realm.
Oh... and what did you think of my former self? I must admit I was a very foolish elf before I joined the Order of Chaos and learned of you. I hope we meet again soon Old Gods, but until then I will continue to paint with the blood you bestow upon me.
Two things that stood out to me, personally.
1. The ending mantra is nowhere to be seen (prolly forgotten, but * shrug * )
2. Confirmed that S《》S isn't as much of a dumbass as he was in DoS2 canon lul
@PoppyrusRose the paint with the blood you bestow upon me is a pretty interesting statement. it sound like he is using the Blood Tears to paint. with might mean he will paint us our god we donated for. as that´s what the blood has been connected to, we use it to LV up our Order of Chaos God.
@LexderMob I don't think sallazher necessarily has to get sinned. We know Nader has a connection to the old gods, and Ouro'ras as well, And they aren't sinned. So I think it would be interesting if Sallazhar got his connection to the old gods in some other way, than getting sinned.
@Fera if you look in the order of chaos thread rob said ouro'us knows about us. however we have yet to be contacted by ouro'us.
its been a wile but we got a new respond as expected,
Greetings Old Gods!
The rewards from the campaign The Last Beenur have been distributed! All Old Gods who attended the show live or donated any amount to the campaign have earned themselves 5320 XP and 1000 Gold. The Old Gods generosity this week created 33,440 Blood Tears and the Old Gods who attended or donated also added their account levels to this total as well for an additional 40,887 Blood Tears for a total of 74,327 Blood Tears from this campaign.
You grow close to reaching the 3rd level for your upcoming creation Old Gods. We look forward to bringing what you create to life very soon. Our visions, your gift. Our bodies, your skins.Posted by Sintour Sallazhar on Jun 27.
i think we have now seen Sallazhars introduction in to the order of chaos, but his purpose and connection to a fate worse than death is something that is still pretty unclear, i first throat after i saw the preview teaser that maelstrom might have Sallazhars painting us our very own God, but after seeing the episode i'm not so sure about that any more, he might just be more connected to the sins instead.

Ashlee Nova had a wicked case of the munchies on set. She agreed to keep shooting, as long as her snacks were nearby. This video was originally planned to be non-nude only, but Ashlee was more interested in playing with her food than teasing the camera. She balances her salty treats over her hard nipples, dropping them often and having a blast flashing her naughty parts.
Ashlee flirts and teases the camera while stripping out of her gold minishorts, and sneaking bites in between dance moves. Near the end of the film, she shows off her naked planking skills, flexible chair twerking and unintentionally exposes her drool-worthy asshole to the camera as it films every well lit moment.
This video is the ultimate multitasker – it will make you hungry and horny – so grab a snack with your box of tissues and download or stream Ashlee Nova's Cheez Nips!

The GoLang blog says it best. Having an automated, canonical, code-formatting tool as part of the build makes your code: "easier to write... easier to read... easier to maintain... [and] uncontroverial."
- Install MSBuild Tools 2015.
- Download CodeFormatter 1.0.0-alpha6.
- Add
CodeFormatter.csprojto the root directory of your projects:
<Project xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">
<Compile Include="**\*.cs" />
<Target Name="Compile">
<Csc Sources="@(Compile)"/>
Then run this from the Command Line (it helps if you've added the extracted ZIP file to your PATH).
> codeformatter.exe CodeFormatter.csproj /nocopyright
The result: all your projects' C# files now adhere to the majority of the .NET Foundation coding guidelines.
- Installing MSBuild Tools 2015 means that we do not need Visual Studio.
- Adding
CodeFormatter.csprojto the root directory recursively includes all C# files, which means the above works with project.json and *.xproj based setups.

Big Issues: How Mike Woodson's Lineup Choices Have...
Last season, the Knicks ran Pablo Prigioni and Raymond Felton out as their starting point guards in the playoffs. The reason? Because it was in that two-PG lineup, along with Iman Shumpert, that the Knicks found success running the floor and shooting threes.
The Knicks scored nearly 117 points per 100 possessions with all three of them on the floor, and collectively the trio shot just under 50% from the field, and had a +/- rating of 9.4. They were able to create assisted baskets and limit turnovers, a recipe that cooked them up a first-round win over Boston, and helped Carmelo Anthony secure the scoring title.
The Knicks ran into the Pacers shortly thereafter, and everything changed.
They got demolished inside by Roy Hibbert and David West, getting outscored in the paint 156-106, and losing the rebound battle 194-143 in four losses to Indiana in the East Semis. In win-now mode, then-GM Glen Grunwald made a creative move (considering there was virtually no salary cap wiggle room) to exchange three total draft picks, along with Marcus Camby and Steve Novak, with the Raptors for Andrea Bargnani. The idea was to have a new sharpshooter who could do other things besides catch-and-fire, which was the extent tof Novak's contributions. It would also allow the Knicks to focus on playing down low and match up with "bigger" teams like Indiana, since Bargnani stands at 7' 0". In losing to Indiana though, the Knicks forgot what made them, and their Superstar, most effective.
With the deal done, and a somewhat similar roster, Mike Woodson decided he wouldn't get handled in the paint like he did in early May against Indiana, and he'd run out his "big" lineup to match up with a league he believes is beginning to play bigger, given the fact he's called having the ability to run Carmelo Anthony out at Small Forward a "luxury."
This Saturday, everything went up in flames. The Grizzlies traveled to MSG without Marc Gasol, a devastating inside prescence that was the biggest reason Memphis reached the West Finals in 2012-13, and went to school on New York inside.
They scored 60 points in the paint to the Knicks' 28, and grabbed a whopping 27 more rebounds. The Knicks' front line of Anthony, Bargnani, and Chandler went a combined 14-34. It was "embarassing," according to Mike Woodson.
It's nothing new, however, as the three of them have a NetRtg (Points Scored/100 possessions - Points Allowed/100 possessions) of -12 in over 70 minutes together, and the Anthony-Stoudemire-Bargnani lineup is a dismal -37.8, in over 100 minutes played. These two big lineups, which the Knicks have seen the most of with Kenyon Martin out, are performing terribly. Overall, they're the sixth-worst team in the league in FG% inside five feet away, and fourth-worst in FG% allowed in the same area.
Considering Andrea Bargnani has played the second-most total minutes on the team thus far, it's fair to say his lackluster help defense has been the cause of the latter statistic, and his contribution to the clogging inside has helped the Knicks to the former number.
The mere presence of Bargnani and Chandler on the floor causes problems from the start, because of what they bring and how they're positioned. Let's look a couple of possessions from Saturday's loss:
Exhibit A:
Here is the essence of what happens on offense with this trio. Bargnani begins to set up in the same spot he's currently stading in, and after he and Chandler set screens to get Anthony and Hardaway open respectively, they wind up in the exact same spot in the lane. Carmelo, who had already made the decision to drive, now is met by two defenders at the rim, and it leads to a blocked shot. On Carmelo's shot attempts, this double-teamed rim scenario would show up more than once.
Exhibit B:
Here's another impossible situation for Carmelo caused by the big lineup. Chandler's presence on the left block has his man in the Resricted Area. Bargnani's camped close enough to the paint (and not on the three point line, where a stretch-four should be) that his defender is ready to step in and make a play. Guarded tightly, Anthony can't drive left or right to the rim, so he has to attempt a difficult turnaround which he misses.
While this is a problem throughout the game, these examples are particularly interesting given the time. This is the crunch-time lineup of choice for Mike Woodson: one forward who's been detrimental in the clutch, and another who's skillset is limited to defending the rim and dunking. While the latter, coupled with leadership, is incredibly valuable in these situations, the limitations of Tyson Chandler have been exposed by the big lineup and Andrea Bargnani/Amar'e Stoudemire. The solution here, as you may have guessed, is not to sit Chandler, but to go to a smaller lineup.
To get Bargnani and Stoudemire to the second unit and out of the starting and crunch-time lineups means one thing: floor space.
Check out this lineup in action above. The Knicks are running an isolation for Carmelo Anthony, which most fans dread, but look at the potential it has. An off-ball screen from Amar'e Stoudemire has successfully placed two shooters outside on the right, and taken the post defender almost out to the elbow. Anthony can now go to work by driving into an open lane, dishing to Tim Hardaway Jr, or shaking his man for a jumper. Either way, he's not set up to fail from the start; he has no one in the paint behind his defender.
The Knicks are better off playing small-ball. It's a lineup that's given Carmelo Anthony breathing room, and it's a necessary change due to the poor numbers the Knicks have put up with three bigs on the floor. A trip to the second unit for Amar'e Stoudemire and Andrea Bargnani may be best for now, but it's no guarantee of success considering the Knicks have other problems, namely Iman Shumpert's poor shooting. Kenyon Martin and Metta World Peace have contributed enough on defense to ease the pain of the struggles the big lineup has on offense, while Bargnani and Stoudemire have not been able to say the same. It's certainly time to do something, however, because Mike Woodson could be looking for work very soon if things don't turn around.

Supreme Court of New Hampshire
August 31, 2017
BARBARA F. O'MALLEY & a.v.AARON LITTLE & a.
Argued: May 18, 2017
Casassa Law Office, of Hampton (Daniel R. Hartley on the
brief and orally), for the plaintiffs.
Office of Joshua L. Gordon, of Concord (Joshua L. Gordon on
the brief and orally), for Aaron Little and Maryann Little.
Aaron and Maryann Little (Littles) appeal an order of the
Superior Court (Anderson, J.) quieting title in the
plaintiffs, Barbara F. O'Malley and her daughter Helen T.
O'Malley, of a strip of land based upon adverse
possession, as well as a previous order denying the
Littles' motion for summary judgment.[1] We affirm.
pertinent facts are as follows. Barbara and her husband,
Joseph, acquired the property at 7 McKay Avenue in Hampton
(McKay Lot) in 1963 for use as a summer home. Over the next
50 years, the couple lived there with their children,
including their daughter Helen, during the summer months;
they also used the property for week-long vacations in April
and intermittent weekend trips. The backyard of the McKay Lot
abuts the backyard of the Littles' property at 6 Francis
Street (Francis Lot).
October 1993, Barbara contracted for the installation of a
chain link fence between the McKay Lot and the Francis Lot
after tenants from the latter began walking across the yard
of the Francis Lot with beach chairs and scratching
Helen's car. The fence was placed about three to five
feet over the property line between the two lots. Between the
fence and the property line (disputed area), there is a
clothesline as well as an outdoor shower and grill, all of
which were used frequently by the O'Malley family. The
plaintiffs and their relatives and friends would occasionally
park against the fence.
1996, following the death of her husband, Barbara deeded the
McKay Lot to herself and her daughter Helen. Around this
time, Helen planted three rose bushes in the disputed area
against the fence, one of which still exists. Tenants of the
Francis Lot and other individuals occasionally cut through a
gap that existed between the fence and another fence that
separated two other abutting properties, but few individuals
walked across the disputed area. The individuals who did
cross the disputed area did so on only a few occasions.
Littles purchased the Francis Lot in December 2008. Upon
acquiring the property, the Littles assumed that the actual
property line was represented by the fence between the two
properties. However, in the spring of 2010, Scott McCarthy, a
prior owner of the Francis Lot, informed the Littles that the
plaintiffs' fence encroached approximately three to five
feet onto the Francis Lot from the actual property line. The
Littles confirmed this statement by reviewing a survey plan
and measuring the property line with a tape measure. They
then called the plaintiffs in April 2010 to inform them of
this discovery, before stating that they needed to move the
fence. The plaintiffs refused. The Littles claimed that,
during this conversation, they gave the plaintiffs permission
to continue using the disputed area; the plaintiffs denied
that such permission was given. Aaron testified that, around
this time, he visited the O'Malley property and walked
along the fence with Helen, asserting that the correct
boundary between the two properties was represented by
several pins from an earlier surveyor's plan. However,
the location of those pins did not align with the property
line depicted on the surveyor's plan.
more occurred until the fall of 2013, when the Littles once
again e-mailed the plaintiffs and requested that the fence be
moved. Although the Littles offered the plaintiffs a license
to use the disputed area, the plaintiffs declined. In
November, the Littles contacted the plaintiffs yet again and
told them to remove the fence by the end of the year. The
Littles threatened to take action to move the fence if the
plaintiffs refused to relocate it. In December 2013, the
plaintiffs instituted this suit to quiet title to the
disputed area based upon adverse possession. The Littles
subsequently moved for summary judgment. The trial court
denied the motion. After conducting a two-day bench trial in
June 2016, the court found in favor of the plaintiffs.
Specifically, the trial court found that the plaintiffs did
not receive permission to use the disputed area in 2010, and
that the Littles' statement to the plaintiffs that the
fence needed to be moved "would not put a reasonably
prudent person on notice that they had actually been
ousted." This appeal followed.
appeal, the Littles assert that they ousted the plaintiffs in
2010 and/or 2013, before the expiration of the 20-year
statute of limitations applicable to adverse possession
claims, by asserting their title to the disputed area and
demanding that the fence be moved. The Littles further claim
that they implicitly granted the plaintiffs permission by
demanding the removal of the fence and then refraining from
removing it. The Littles also contend that the trial court
erred in denying their pretrial motion for summary judgment.
with the last issue first, we decline to entertain the merits
of the Littles' claim that the trial court erred in
denying their motion for summary judgment because they have
failed to brief a fundamental preliminary question bearing on
the issue: whether an erroneous trial court order denying
summary judgment is reviewable on appeal where, as here, the
case proceeds to the entry of a final judgment after trial.
We have never addressed this question and do not do so now.
We note, however, that there is substantial authority for the
proposition that in such circumstances the trial record
supersedes the summary judgment record, thereby rendering any
error in denial of summary judgment unreviewable on appeal.
See Ortiz v. Jordan, 562 U.S. 180, 184 (2011);
Brown v. State Farm Fire & Cas. Co., 90 A.3d

SP.NET 4.5 and ASP.NET MVC 4 took an important step forward with the release of Visual Studio 2012. In addition to the new features and improved performance, the main direction seems to be bundling less namespaces in the core framework and more official libraries on NuGet. The main benefit of the new approach is the ability to update more code in an out-of-band release without being tied into the bi yearly .NET core release cycle. In other words: Microsoft and third party vendors can update releases on weekly basis, developers can then update the dedicated NuGet package and use the most current version of the library. Started writing an application with jQuery 1.6 and want to update? Just use the NuGet package manager to update to the latest jQuery version without manually replacing references. This new direction opened the door to try and integrate with some of the more popular platforms today. Facebook, Twitter, Yahoo, Google and Bing.

Wednesday, September 16, 2015
On a Saturday in July, many people gathered in the BRAVO! Italian Restaurant & Bar dining area. Some sat at tables with friends, but some ended up at tables with strangers. They chatted as a server passed around opaque white drinks to everyone, which served as a preview to the main event: BRAVO!'s second annual rum tasting, where the guests tried Plantation Rum, a series of craft rums from Cognac Ferrand.
The preview drink was an original daiquiri (not the frozen kind) that featured Plantation 3 Star White Rum. The daiquiri, which supposedly U.S. Congressman William Chanler of New York introduced to the U.S., was named for a beach and an iron mine near Santiago de Cuba. The original drink was served in a tall glass with cracked ice. The bartender or drink mixer would add a teaspoon of sugar, the juice of a couple of limes and three ounces of white rum.
Because of wartime rationing in the 1940s, whiskey and vodka were hard to find, but President Franklin D. Roosevelt's Good Neighbor Policy, which opened up trade and travel relations with Latin America, Cuba and the Caribbean, helped make rum-based and tropical drinks (among them a frozen daiquiri), popular.
The Cognac Ferrand website says co-owner and master distiller Alexandre Gabriel's intention for the company was to breathe new life into it while keeping the craft-based production methods. Today, Cognac Ferrand distributes its rums, gins and other liquors in more than 40 countries, and Mississippi now has a distributor for its rums. BRAVO! Bar Manager Chris Robertson said that before now, you didn't see many craft rums such as Plantation because of problems such as liquor laws and taxes. Once Mississippi began to get such rums, he said it introduced a new problem. "Nobody knew about it because it was something new, it was something unsafe," he told the tasters. "If you've been drinking Crown Royal all your life, and now you see a shelf of 10 different bourbons that you've never even heard of from states you didn't even think made bourbon, how are you going to trust that?"
That's why he and Nathan McHardy, who co-owns Briarwood Wine and Spirits with his wife, Leslie, decided to start doing rum tastings. "(The tastings) mainly started out as an educational thing, but now it's a lot of fun," he said.
After the daiquiri, Robertson and McHardy introduced the first rum, Plantation Trinidad 2001. Each Plantation Rum is distilled and aged on an island in the Caribbean, which Robertson said gives certain notes to each. The Trinidad rum has cinnamon, tropical fruit, molasses and smoke notes. If you swish it around your mouth, you can taste the spice, the vanilla, the molasses and other flavors. McHardy said that the lengths Cognac Ferrand goes through to produce different flavors in the rum is evident when you taste it.
The tasters at BRAVO! tried four vintages, including the Trinidad, Barbados 2001, Jamaica 2001 and Guyana 2005, and each had different flavor profiles because of their island roots. The Barbados, my personal favorite, was distilled in a column and traditional pot still, and then aged nine years in bourbon and sherry casks and three years in cognac casks. You could taste the different flavors—the exotic fruit, the vanilla, the sherry, the cognac.
The third was interesting because in addition to smoky notes, it also had a slightly meaty tone, possibly from Jamaicans roasting meat on the island. Tasters also tried Plantation's 20th Anniversary rum, which is a blend of the company's oldest reserves. The cellar master at Chateau de Bonbonnet blends selected Caribbean-aged rums, and then the mixture matures in French oak casks for 12 to 18 months. Double-aging gives the rum a more refined flavor. The last rum tasters tried was Plantation Rum's pineapple rum. Instead of being sweet like many may expect flavored rums to be, the pineapple combined with the rum to create a beverage with many layers.
While Plantation Rum isn't cheap, it's affordable for a craft rum. It runs anywhere from $40 to $80, depending on which one you get. And if you're used to brands such as Bacardi or Malibu, trying a craft rum may seem intimidating, but once you experience it, you may never look at spirits like that the same ever again.
For information on future tastings at BRAVO! Italian Restaurant & Bar (4500 Interstate 55 N., Suite 244, 601-982-8111), visit bravobuzz.com.

In the food issue of BOOM Jackson magazine (September-October 2015), we did an article on the Wine Spectator Award. Each year, Wine Spectator does the contest to honor the best wine lists in the country. We mentioned that CAET Wine Bar, Char Restaurant, Ruth's Chris Steak House, Shapley's Restaurant and Walker's Drive-In earned spots in the Award of Excellence category; however, we didn't mention that BRAVO! Italian Restaurant & Bar also made the list. The restaurant is actually Jackson's record holder and the longest consecutive winner in the category. It was an oversight on our part, and we apologize to all the good folks at BRAVO! and Mangia Bene.

A Menlo Park-based swift water rescue team returned home on Friday following a deployment first to Sacramento and then to Los Gatos in case the recent rainstorms threatened people's lives, Menlo Park Fire Protection District officials said Saturday.
The team, which is made up of staff members of the fire protection district, was deployed Sunday after returning from Oroville the week before where a damaged auxiliary spillway threatened nearly 200,000 people.
The rescue team from Menlo Park is one of the state's original swift water rescue teams established in 1994. Its staff is a mix of new and veteran members, including some who responded to disasters such as Hurricane Katrina.
The team was ready to respond to San Jose if the city needed help, but that wasn't the case.
Menlo Park fire Chief Harold Schapelhouman said the team will be ready should melting snow cause flooding and threaten people's lives later this year.

Lavender Lemonade
1 cup hot water
1 cup (about two handfuls) dried or fresh lavender buds
1 cup honey
1 cup fresh squeezed lemon juice
2-3 cups cold water
Start by making a simple syrup of with equal amounts of honey, dried or fresh lavender and hot water. Let it steep for several minutes. Add an equal amount of fresh lemon juice. Dilute to your liking with cold water; I usually add 2-3 times the amount of cold water. Adjust the sweetness/ tartness by adding more honey, more lavender or more lemon juice. Enjoy!
