A word from Marche aux Fleurs
The Marche aux Fleurs is the farmer's market in the south of France. We have taken this name for our restaurant because we base our cuisine on the seasons and the best the local farmer's markets have to offer. Our produce is locally farmed, our seafood is wild and sustainable, and our meats are range-fed. These ingredients comprise the selections on our menu, and the flavors are clean and expressive.Continued

- LisaOpenTable Diner Since 2003VIPDined on 8/30/2014A quaint outdoor setting in a beautiful neighborhood in Marin. The food was amazing from the First Bites, Avocado Crostini to the warm chocolate cake for dessert. We will go back again and again until we try the entire menu.Special Features:
- DisappointedRavenousMuseVIPDined on 8/29/2014I ordered the duck confit entrée accompanied by sautéed cabbage and peaches with pistachio "dust." The duck was great, as usual, but the cabbage was bland and the peach was rock hard. Guess I'll stick with the gnocchi next time.Special Features:
- Nice Neighborhood RestaurantdvdwDined on 8/20/2014Great location, especially if you live in the area. Quiet, village-like atmosphere, no issues with access or parking. Very friendly, accommodating staff. We happened to be there on a mid-week, rather slow night, so it was very relaxed, quiet and comfortable. Our appetizer was delicious (avocado foccacia). Entrees of steak and duck confit were well-prepared with coordinated sides. Corkage fee was reasonable for self-brought wine.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good atmosphere, disappointing fooddine4lifeDined on 8/9/2014We just moved to the area and wanted to love this restaurant. We were excited when we saw the interior and the patio - great space - and full tables/lots of energy. The service was also very good with fun staff. The food, however, was less than expected. Too salty for our taste and, while the dishes had great combinations of ingredients, the integration of the flavors was the problem. And the meats (except for the duck confit) was overcooked. So in the pork rague pasta, for example, it had a dry pork rague on one side, some greens in the middle and some slightly too al-dente pasta on the right. When taking a forkful of each ingredient, you tasted each one separately - nothing tied them together. Bummer. Wine and the list was great.Special Features:
- Consistently Exquisite8exquioDined on 8/2/2014We always enjoy every element of our meal at Marche aux Fleurs - the warm welcome, attentive service, and the delicious food. The dishes are prepared and severed with attention to detail. Food is fresh, often locally grown, and always delicious. Our meal includes appetizers, salads, main courses, its signature chocolate dessert, and the best bread served anywhere. The ambience is lovely, quiet, comfortable. The space can be filled to capacity, but it is still possible to enjoy conversation with your dining partners. It is the whole experience (food, service, ambience, and the warm and gracious greeting of the staff who always recognize us even though we dine here only a dozen times/year) that is consistently exquisite every time.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A little bit of France in RosstraveltattleDined on 7/26/2014For a lovely evening of al fresco dining on a warm night in Marin, Marche aux Fleurs is the place to go. The food is consistent and always good. The service is excellent. One recommended dish is the their Gnocchi. Light and delicious. We split an order as a appetizer. I had the thin pork chop which was tasty. My husband had the steak which was quite good. Sitting outside is a delight.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Never disappointsforever41Dined on 7/25/2014We have been going to this restaurant for years for birthdays and anniversaries. We love the intimate setting and the lovely outdoor patio seating. The wine list is fabulous and always comes with good recommendations to pair with our dinner choices. The food is delicious, using great blends of flavors and fresh produce.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Absolutely superb!OpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 7/25/2014Absolutely superb! On two visits we were delighted beyond any expectations. This is a great restaurant.Special Features:
- Marche flunked!InternationaldinerDined on 7/25/2014Terrible food. No way near anything French. Not even faux French. Food arrived before the drinks. Go figure the rest!
- Neat spot with really good foodCal2VIPDined on 7/23/2014Great outdoor dining. Nice staff. Very good food. What else do you want?Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ImaginativeDickVIPDined on 7/18/2014We had four people and most of us thought the food was great. There were a few niggles, so as a bit too much salt in the gnocchi but it was tasty none the less. The corn, leek soup was outstanding.
- Ross dinnerMoose8842Dined on 7/18/2014This is a great little place with lots of potential. The menu was great and the food was good. I was a little turned off by walking in and getting greeted by staff who are folding napkins as they check you in for dinner. Looked like they were not ready. Also the busboy seated us was not very friendly. When we asked to not sit in the blazing sun when there were at least 5 other tables open in the shade he made us feel like it was a big deal to switch. The same busboy brought everyone one (1) slice of bread starved from a basket and never came back. Kind of crummy. The waitress was friendly and it was nice to see the chef bring out meals too. This seems to be a local joint - but it is nice.Special Features:
- oversaltedp1234Dined on 7/16/2014Nice ambiance in the garden patio, but the food was way too salty (and I like saltier food than most). My companion couldn't eat it at all. Service mediocre at best.Special Features:
- As UsualTonguelessDined on 7/11/2014Everything was perfect starting with the French 75s right through and including the fresh plum and berry crisp. The cornbread was amazing, and I don't like cornbread.Special Features:
- Outdoor spotMackVIPDined on 7/5/2014The warm evening in Ross made this a delightful event as we dined outdoors in the quiet of the sunset. Both my wife and I enjoyed the halibut baked perfectly and served with a melange of vegetables. Finishing with a flowerless chocolate cake topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream was a perfect ending.Special Features:
- you just have to try it.OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 7/3/2014I happen to love country French food. But this is so good. The staff are all wonderful. Not over priced. My absolute favorite is the gnocchi. Second recommendation is the Duck con fit, the Duck is so tender it practically melts in your mouth. In the autumn they make the best French Onion soup I have ever had. Just go. You won't be disappointed.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Consistently OutstandingJakesdogsVIPDined on 6/28/2014MaF was as always excellent. Nearly every dish was pitch perfect. Spectacular corn bread accompanying the pork chops, wonderful duck confit, and the dates - well I can still taste the dates. The crowd is not exactly hip but guess that with age comes wisdom that you don't need to endure the line at Picco to have the best Marin has to offerSpecial Features:
- Fresh, fresh, freshOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 6/28/2014Veggies can't be much more than a day old before they hit the plate. So sweet.Special Features:
- Great outdoor dining. Not much elseBellaDined on 6/14/2014Talk about atrocious service. It's hard to enjoy the food when the bread and water service comes with such an attitude and eye rolling. Main course flavors were good but we couldn't figure out why so stingy on gnocchi toppings. Not to mention the menu inaccurately stated the gnocchi dish had chanterelles which were in fact porcini. Not remotely close. The "famous" chocolate dessert doesn't deserve to be so famous. It's barely enough for one serving and the amaretto cookie was great, if only there was more of it. Overall the beautiful evening weather made the date, not the food or service.Special Features:
- Great for celebrationsGinnyDined on 6/14/2014The food was delicious and perfectly prepared. The choices made my mouth water. We went to celebrate a birthday and it was indeed the right place to make someone fell special.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- charles12Dined on 6/10/2014Outstanding country Provencal fare. Enjoyed the relaxed rustic setting with Provencal cuisind. It was as if dinning outside in Provence next to a "Flower Market"!Special Features:
- Great Dinner!8exquioDined on 6/7/2014My wife and I have eaten at Marche aux Fleurs many times and its always the same experience: great food and excellent service!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Charming French BistroLeiannDined on 5/31/2014We enjoyed a wonderful dinner with friends at this neighborhood restaurant that has fabulous ambiance and a charming indoor/outdoor feel. The food was fresh and creative and had beautiful presentation. We would highly recommend it.Special Features:
- DeliciousMBatDined on 5/24/2014We had a wonderful meal. The food was outstanding. Organic, sustainable, farm to table type of menu, but with an elegant and charming atmosphere. We don't want to tell too many about this neighborhood gem!Special Features:
- California GirlCaliforniagirlDined on 5/24/2014This restaurant is our daughter's favorite in Marin, so when she came to town we had to go. We've been here before and thought the food was pretty good and overall have had a nice experience. This was not the case this time around. The food was okay, but not worth coming back for. The staff were pleasant enough, but just barely. My daughter asked for a side order of the cornbread they were offering as part of the meal special and they made some lame excuse about portion control. My husband asked about sitting outside (they had us at some weird 3 person configuration) we were told that special requests needed to be made in advance - they had plenty open tables outside. Too many excuses for so so food. Not going to be going back.
- SadLocalsVIPDined on 5/23/2014We celebrated a birthday there on Friday Eve. Bad table to begin with, had an end table against the wall hitting me in the back for two hours. The place was full at 7:30. Our pregnant server was harried and unattentive. The food was disappointing on top of it!! I had salmon that was rubberized and awful, but never got the service to ask alter the experience. So sad, as this restaurant WAS excellent. Please get it back to its standards!!!!Special Features:
- Always Superb creative foodOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 5/17/2014Chef Dan Baker served smoked octopus with garlic greens and homemade pasta, accompanied by a vintage Bordeaux. The pairing was superb and the staff are always attentive. Our favorite neighborhood dining.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- understaffed saturday 6pmrichDined on 5/17/2014we love Marche, but services was forgetful and spotty. I think they were missing a busboy.... had to ask for coffee refills and wine to be poured several times. Squid Ink Pasta was very good- perfectly done octopus and scallop. Love, Love the bbq date appetizer and the avocado crostini!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Another great dinnerNaturalHorsemanVIPDined on 5/11/2014My bride likes to come to Marche aux Fleur for Mother's Day. The place was jammed, as usual for MOther's Day. The food was great. I started with the green garlic soup, had the steak, and finished with the profiteroles. Our go-to server, Peter, was great, just a bit on overload.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Simply Wonderful !OpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 5/11/2014We had a superb and delicious Mother's Day dinner with our children - the salad, halibut and apricot tart dessert were all divine, topped by glasses of bubbly and rose. A memorable meal - thank, you - Marche aux Fleurs!Special Features:
- Always a pleasureFouetteDined on 5/9/2014Marche remains one of our favorites. Dan and Holly are active owners with Dan as head chef and Holly running the floor. There's always a tough choice between old favorites and something new and equally tempting.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A Small Menu...TonguelessDined on 5/7/2014but as usual everything was perfect. This is a go to place that just keeps keeping on with the best.Special Features:

- Uneven experienceJackMichaelsDined on 4/22/2014We like Marche aux Fleurs, but on this occasion, the quality of the entrees was uneven with 2 delicious and 2 marginal. The appetizers and salads were interesting and tasty. It is a friendly restaurant with attentive service. We liked the fact that it was quiet so we could actually talk to the people at our tableSpecial Features:
- Still a pleasurecostosVIPDined on 4/19/2014Marche aux Fleurs continues to deliver a first rate dinning experience with graceful service and very good to excellent food. And, they do it at a reasonable price. When summer finally arrives, the courtyard will be one of the best places to dine in all of Marin.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- A Nice Neighborhood FindskidadVIPDined on 4/12/2014Marche aux Fleurs is a comfortable, relaxing restaurant set in quiet Ross. The service is efficient and menu selections include items to meet everyone's preferences. The food, while not exceptional is wholesome, well flavored and nicely presented.Special Features:
- Bad experience at Marche aux fleursStarrVIPDined on 4/11/2014Have been coming to Marche for years, always a great spot. This was a BAD experience. Noise level excessive. Waiter gave very poor service. Food not as good as used to be, items were heavily salted. Would hesitate ever recommending to anyone in future.Special Features:
- A French Bistro in RossJadeGal2Dined on 4/4/2014We enjoy each of our dining experiences at Marche Aux Fleur whether it is a regular dinner or for special occasion such a birthday, anniversary or Valentine's Day. Appreciate the restaurant keeps track of our visits and our orders and that they acknowledge our return visits. We feel very much at home at this gem of a place that reminds us of a bistro in Paris and France. The food is always well prepared with creativity and freshness. The portions are the right size for us. Their wine list is excellent with a cross section of domestic and foreign that complements the food. Service is very attentive, ambience is cozy, comfy and conversations can be held at a moderate tone. Overall, a very relaxing atmosphere for dinner.Special Features:

Head on over to the game's new website at http://www.costumequest2.com for more info or check out the new teaser trailer below:
Double Fine at PAX Prime
Lots of fun Double Fine stuff going on this weekend up at PAX! Too much for just a simple blogpost, really. Here's a fancy graphic to help you take it all in! Stop by and say hi if you're up in Seattle. SEE YOU ALL SOON!
Devs & Bevs
Drinks? Yep. A quintet of game developers? You betcha. If you're coming to PAX or are in the greater Seattle, WA area, come join us at Devs & Bevs! Five independent game developers—including us, naturally—are hosting a bar night at the Hard Rock Cafe on Sunday, August 31st from 6:00 to 10:00.
The lineup for the evening is extraordinary.
6:00—Fantasia from Harmonix
6:30—Firewatch from Campo Santo
7:00—Tharsis from Choice Provisions
7:30—Below from Capy
8:00—MASSIVE CHALICE from Double Fine
8:30—Costume Quest 2 from Double Fine
9:00—Gang Beasts from Boneloaf
And more! Facebook event right here. Hope to see you there!
Double Fine Presents: Gang Beasts
Thrilled to announce the newest addition to our Double Fine Presents lineup, Gang Beasts. The title comes to us from UK-based studio Boneloaf, which was founded by three brothers James, Jon, and Michael Brown (awwwww) who joined up with artist Jason Pugh to create experimental party games. That's just what they've done with Gang Beasts, which very quickly became a go-to title for all our multiplayer gaming needs.
The game is a local multiplayer brawler in the style of Streets of Rage or Double Dragon that allows you and your buddies to fight alongside each other and face off head to head. It's a jolly good time full of silly procedural animation and ragdoll physics that will no doubt insight giggles and guffaws.
You may have seen Gang Beasts on one of the many popular Youtube videos that are already floating around, or perhaps you even played the pre-Alpha build that has been available for a while now. Well the team has been hard at work at preparing a shiny new alpha build that is going to be landing on Steam Early Access on August 29th!
Should you happen to be heading to PAX Prime, we'll be there alongside the Boneloaf guys demoing the game at our booth (#117)! Come by and check it out. If not there, then hopefully we'll see you at Fantastic Arcade where the game will also be shown as a one of 8 Spotlight games alongside fellow DF Presents title, Mountain, which as of today is newly available on Google Play, Amazon, and Steam!
Grim Fandango PAX Panel
Looking for more info on Grim Fandango Remastered? Well, we have just the thing for you. We're having a panel at PAX Prime entitled Grim Fandango: Bringing the Dead Back to Life! Join Tim Schafer, Peter Chan, Peter McConnell, Matt Hansen and moderator Sony's Gio Corsi for a conversation on development of both the original game and the new remastered version. We'll also be unveiling a new development documentary episode from 2 Player Productions!
The panel is Saturday, August 30th at 4:30 in the Main Theater. Hopefully we'll see you there!
Reap your heart out! Grim Fandango available on PC, Mac, Linux, PS4, and Vita!
Double Fine is pleased to announce that, along with the console exclusive PlayStation 4 and Vita versions of Grim Fandango, Manny will also reap once again on PC, Mac, and Linux!
And that's not all, folks! All versions will be launching simultaneously, so everyone can play on day one and not have to worry about those spoilers you've been successfully avoiding for the past fifteen years. (Pro-tip: stay off Twitter.)
But hopefully, after all those years of patience, you can hold out just a BIT longer.
Double Fine Presents: Mountain
We're really pleased to announce our next Double Fine Presents title, David OReilly's Mountain. You may know David's work from his amazing animated short films, his crazytown Adventure Time episode, or most recently the incredible hologram video game sequences in Spike Jonze's film Her.
Mountain is David's first step into the interactive world and it's beautiful, relaxing, and most definitely unlike anything you've played before. It is a completely procedural terrarium of sorts that provides an ambient, minimalist, zen-like experience full of secrets and mysteries. It's something that is begging to live in a small window of your desktop at all times and be taken in passively over time.
The game is now available on iOS and PC, Mac, and Linux for $.99. Launch trailer of pretty mountain scenery below!
Broken Age Now Available on iPad!
Broken Age Act 1 for iPad is now available on the App Store!
We're really pleased with how the game looks and plays on the device, with beautiful hi-res art and all the fancy touch controls we added to the PC build a few months back. Here's a new iPad trailer we put together to help spread word about the new version:
We've also released Broken Age on the Mac App Store as a $24.99 season pass. This will include Act 2 when it's done, just like Steam!
NOW, back to work on the next documentary episode and Act 2 development!!!
Hack 'n' Slash now on Steam Early Access!
Hack 'n' Slash, brainchild of Brandon Dillon and birthed during Amnesia Fortnight 2012, is now available to the public on Steam Early Access riiiiiiiight here:
Garnering more votes than any other Amnesia Fortnight pitch to date, Hack 'n' Slash follows the story of a young elf named Alice as she uses her computer hacking skills to cheat her way through a classic action-adventure game. Check it out in this fancy new gameplay video!

3.91/5 rDev +3.4%
750ml bottle served in a Belgian snifter. Consumed slowly with temperature rising from about 39F (too cold) to 55F. This brewery is new to the U.S. (GA only, so far).
Pours a dark red-brown color with a thin head; a little spotty lacing is left on the glass. Looks like a porter.
Aroma: A bit malty for a bockbeer, with suggestion of a Scottish ale. Some caramel, green apples, light spices, faint smokiness and mild alcohol esters.
Taste: More malty than the smell suggests. Some caramel and darker roasted grains, with just hints of coffee and dark chocolate. Moderately complex owing to the grain bill.
Mouthfeel: medium+ body and crisp carbonation. Dry finish.
Overall: not a typical German Bockbier, but quite tasty and easily recommended.

A - Pours deep brown, only slightly reddish with a light tan head
S - Roasted grains and brown sugar
T - Toasted, smokey malts, hints of rye and brown sugar. Finishes dry and hoppy
M - Thick, full-bodied, slightly carbonated. More like a porter than most boks
O - Overall a very heavy, dark bok, that's more along the lines of a porter than a typical bok bier, but still very enjoyable, especially on a cold Fall day.

330 ml, long neck brown bottle, ABV 6,5%, at home, poured into a snifter.
Pours a very dark brown coloured beer, with a good two finger beige, creamy head, with average retention.
Aroma of roasted malts, coffee and on the background slight caramel and alcohol.
Taste is sweet at first, giving its place to a light pleasant bitterness. Roasted malts and dark chocolate.
Medium to full body, light carbonation.
A very tasty bock.

22 Oct 2012 in Valkenburg, Holland: Cafe De Grendelpoort is having a Bockfest and this was one of the brews on-tap.
Very dark, most likely the darkest Bok I saw during my stay in Holland. The head was also the whitest I saw on a Bok this time around.
The aroma and taste were of roasted but not burnt malts with red berry notes in both the smell and mouth flavours. Coffee, prunes and plums can be added to the taste thoughts as this is a complex and interesting beer.
Medium bodied and easy to drink: pity there were so mant to try, or I could have stayed on this for another one or three!

Poured a 1" head which dissipated quickly. Clear burnt umber brown in color. Smell and taste both are mildly chocolate malt, and it's followed up by a pleasant long acidic zing. Really a pretty nice Bock. What was most notable of all was the massive amount of sediment in the bottom of the bottle (must have been at least 1/4" solid thick sediment and it came out during the pour as big globs). It didn't bother me, I've just never seen so much in a bottle.

2.9/5 rDev -23.3%
A: Pours very dark amber with large chunks of yeast. The head is thick and tan, and laced with yeast, resembling oatmeal.
S: Plums, prunes, raisins, along with just a hint of yeast. Very estery.
T: Surprisingly sour. I don't know whether this is because of the wheat, or if the bottle is old. (I'd be curious to try this fresh in the Netherlands.) The rye and wheat lighten the taste considerably. The start is very dry, followed by a sour center, and a dry finish. The oats contribute a slight astringency, but it's not powerful. There is also a hint of salt I'm picking up.
M: Much lighter than a traditional bock. There's a bit of warmth, but the overall feel is much more summery than a regular bock. Christmas in July?
D: The watery sourness drives down the drinkability of Jopen Bokbier. The bottle conditioning is generally a good thing, but the huge clumps of yeast actually detract from the experience (see hefeweizen or Cooper's Sparkling Ale for a better yeast-in-the-glass example).

Rich mahogany with tons of sediment. That's right, a bottle conditioned bock with yeast floaties all over the place. Small, light tan head gives way to a steady stream of bubbles. Wow, the nose is amazing. Intense caramel and dark malt sweetness with vanilla in tow.
A blast of dark fruit (not plum, not raisin, but something elusive) in front, closely followed by a beautiful melding of vanilla and slightly roasted coffee-like malt. The underlying sweetness brings honey to mind. No hop flavor, but just enough bitterness to prevent the beer from being cloying.
Jopen Bokbier is medium-bodied with medium-high carbonation for the style. Alcohol is totally masked by the heavy caramel flavor. This beer has more flavor than most doppelbocks I've had, and I would drink this regularly if I could. This has easily become my favorite bock in one beer's time.

Second price winner is "some" bock tasting event.
A: Drak brown almost black color with a one finger light brown head.
S: Roasted malts, toasted bread, dark fruits, caramel and light alcohols.
T: Burned malts, hints of dark chocolate, coffee and even liquorice. Perfectly dosed on the sugars.
M: Medium carbonation and a medium body. Dry finish.
D: An extraordinairy bockbeer. Has some Oatmeal Stout character in it. Very drinkable.

Bought this beer at the Bierkoning in Amsterdam. This beer is brewed with Malted barley, Wheat, Oats and Rye. Nice! Poured into a Westvleteren glass. The beer pours a hazy dark-brown color with almost no head, and some messy lacing. Contrary to some other users, I didn't experience any problems with yeast sediment in my glass.
Smell: Not too strong for a bockbeer. Some candy, bit caramel, roasted grains, spicy hops but also (or mainly) very fresh (green apples)
Taste: Quite different than the smell suggests. Roasted coffee, dark chocolate, lot of grains, not fresh at all. As mentioned by Absumaster, there is some not sweet caramel taste in this beer. Also I taste some very will hidden saltyness. The aftertaste is bitter and a bit dry
Mouthfeel: thick for the style, high carbonation that stimulates the tongue.
Overall: as mentioned by other reviewers as well, this is not a typical German Bockbeer (more ale like..). But man, is this good or what!!

30cL bottle purchased at Knightly Spirits, Orlando, FL
Aroma: scents of caramel malt, brown sugars, small hints of coffe and a bit of alcohol
Appearance: a murky concoction, a deep amber body with a thin off-white head. Virtually no head retention and zero lacing, this beer is merely ok to look at. Lots of yeasty floaties in the final pour, chances are this was bottled several years ago.
Taste: the taste is solid - the caramel malts bring out one of my favorite tastes, but with some hopiness that Belgians would forget. Fortunately for me, the coffee influence on taste is subtle at best. Really a good idea - German style, Belgian influence, but brewed in Holland.
Feel: medium feel all the way - not much carbonation
Drinkability: very easy and smooth to drink, and the fair 6.5% doesn't put you to sleep. I'd have another.
Not a prime example of bock bier, but still a good beer period.

Pours a very dark ruby with white chunks of sediment floating around. I guess I poured a bit too much. Nose is kind of musty with a malt tone to it and just a very slight touch of wood. Robust but mild aged dark fruit skins there as well. Flavor is a nice hearty malt with a touch of dark sugar. A little bit of wood. Feel is nice. High carbonation hitting the tongue. Thick liquid feel for sure. Overall this is an unusual bock. At least in comparison to the more traditional styles. I like it, as it is well made. It just isn't your typical example of the style.

Poured from a 30cl bottle ($3.00 in Detroit) into a pint glass. The appearance is murky brown, tons of large yeastie floaters, 3-finger foam which loses 2 fingers after about a minute. The aroma is bocky, sweet and malty but with a bit of a sour acidic edge to it (almost metallic). The taste is very good, with all the flavors promised from the aroma. Nicely drinkable, but not really worth the price when you can get better versions imported from Germany for cheaper prices.

Zend Offers PHP Application Server
The PHP company Zend now includes an enterprise application server named Zend Server as one of its offerings.
The Zend Server is available as an enterprise product and in a Community Edition that is cost-free but not Open Source. Both contain the BSD-licensed Zend Framework and the Eclipse-licensed Zend Studio.
Zend provides repositories with Debian and RPM packages to allow Linux users an easy installation and update of the PHP stack. Users of older Enterprise Linux versions can also receive an update. Zend CEO Andi Gutmans promised in conversation with Linux Magazine Online that updates and security fixes would be delivered more often and in smaller bits, much as with Linux distros.
The Zend server is also available for Windows and Mac OS X. The company touts as a key benefit of the PHP server that it offers developers an identical stack on each platform. According to Gutmans the bulk of the PHP application is developed under Windows, but goes into production under Linux.
Further key benefits of the Zend Server is what the company calls code acceleration through bytecode caching, full page caching, and advanced application monitoring and diagnostics.
The Community Edition download is cost-free, while the cost-based edition is available as a 30-day evaluation download.

The Yankees are terrible! :P

Yay new page!!!!!!!!
If you want to live your life in ignorance, that's your choice….. :)
Ouch. :(
I'm only going to cry a lot now.
Maybe you should dust the cobwebs off your emo couch.
wOAH my avatar came out giant???
Well, that makes a statement.
Fixed it! Just had to reupload it. Weird glitch.
do I see frolicking afoot?
Huff is always drawn to frolicking and shenanigans!!!! :))))
helloooooooooooooo!!!!!!! PBBBB and Adella!!!!!!!
well I was going to go to bed since I need me some sanity sleep ;) but now that I'm wide awake O.O…
It's been so long! I've missed you!!!!!!! :D
Sanity is overrated :)
I haven't been sane since '97.
me too, I've been awol for a while. :S I only got to skim your Con update but it sounded great!!!
And Adella surely you can give us a hint about your news? All that glitters…? Precioussssssss? More large pieces of paper? Or a smaller piece of paper with a bunch of lines going across that people fill out? bwaahahahaaaaaaa
It's really sad to think that I am the sanest person here. Sad.
LOL look at me being so nosy! o.<
I think i've forgotten what sane feels like. >.<
well it's all relative, ironsos ;)
Ironsos, you know one of the signs of insanity is thinking oneself sane…
Omg LeakyCon was AMAZING AND PORTLAND WAS AMAZING AND I WANT TO MOVE TO PORTLAND
Probably closest to the last hahaha. Miiiight involve worklurking :)
Portland does sound like a nice place to live. Did it rain there a lot? I think that's my biggest worry about living in the pacific NW. I like rain but I can't stand grey for more than a week.
ooooooooh thanks! I'll stop being nosy ;)
None of my relatives are sane. Why should I be.
Would love to stay and chat but I took a sleepy pill before noticing everybody here.
Night all.
It was cloudy most of the time we were there, but while I was there it only sprinkled in the mornings, but I was fine to walk around still with just a light jacket. I hear that's weird, though :P
but I love how Green Portland is. I feel like an eco freak most of the time and it's cuz I do the radical thing and turn off my lights when I leave work, rather than letting the motion detector turn the lights off an hour later. honestly, they shoudl have made the motion detectors turn lights off after 15 min!!
aww night Ironsos!! sleep well!

NOx Reduction in a Monolithic Reactor
Model ID: 10194
This suite of examples illustrate the modeling of selective NO reduction, that occurs as flue gases pass through the channels of a monolithic reactor in the exhaust system of a motored vehicle. The simulations are aimed at finding the optimal dosing of NH3, the reactant that serves as reducing agent in the process.
Three different analyses are performed:
- Kinetic analysis: Selectivity aspects of the kinetics are studied by modeling initial reaction rates as function of temperature and relative reactant amounts. Information is gained regarding the conditions that are preferred to attain the desired selectivity.
- Process modeling: A reactive monolith channel is modeled as a non-isothermal plug flow reactor. This model reveals necessary minimal dosing level of NH3, based on the working conditions of the catalytic converter.
- Detailed process modeling: A 3D model of the full reactor monolith is set up and solved, including mass transport, heat transfer and fluid flow. The model reveals the full space-dependency of the problem and lets us confirm or further adjust the dosing levels.

The Philippines are an archipelago of more than seven thousand islands off the southeast coast of Asia. Only half of these islands have been named and roughly one thousand are inhabited. Look at how beautiful they are! People first arrived here from the mainland around 25,000 B.C. by crossing a land bridge which existed at the time.
The name comes from Ferdinand Magellan of Portugal, who explored the Philippines in 1521. He claimed them in service of Spain, naming them after Prince Philip. Spain controlled the Philippines for the next 350 years until the Philippine Revolution of 1896.
Here's a picture of Fort Santiago, where the national hero Jose Rizal was imprisoned prior to his execution. He was a poet and novelist who supported peaceful reform, rather than violent revolution, against the Spanish government.
This is one of poems in which he describes the creation of the world, as a gift to his mother:
"Say they that tell of the world, the first dawn of the sun, the first kiss that his bosom inflamed, when thousands of beings surged out of nothing, and peopled the depths, and to the heights mounted, to wherever his fecund kiss was implanted"
Violent revolution broke out anyway and the Philippines changed hands from Spanish, to American, to Japanese control over the next fifty years. Following World War Two they finally became an independent republic.
Back to the beautiful ocean! You can dream about the Cafe Del Mar resort next time you find your screen saver kicking in when you're still sitting at the desk staring blankly. There's a series of DJ mixes with this title but I don't know if it refers to the same place. I would not be surprised.
Annnnd to really get you buying your plane tickets...

ABOUT 300 Karen from Werribee, Geelong, Springvale and Bendigo gathered in Bendigo on Saturday to see in the 2753 Karen new year.
Mayor Barry Lyons and Councillor Rod Fyffe joined the colourful harvest celebration at St Andrew's Uniting Church, which featured traditional bright costumes, dancing, food and music.
Venerable Ashin Moonie said the new year signalled a need to train young people to be good leaders.
"Today, leaders and all those who want to be leaders should have patience and lovingkindness so there will be peace for everyone," he said.
Attendee Christine Perry said she was loving the festival.
"Everyone is so friendly and welcoming," she said, adding the rope dancing and bamboo dancing was "just amazing".
The Karen calendar dates from the ethnic group's arrival in Burma in 739BC.

At My True Nature™, we believe that childhood is sacred. We spend every second thinking about how to make everyday activities for kids safe and fun. Our first task was to figure out how to make kids laugh in the bath.
The idea for My True Nature™ came after my first baby was born. Like many mothers, I wanted to create a safe home environment. But when I couldn't find a line of soaps and shampoos that had 100% natural ingredients, performed as well as typical mainstream products, and were completely free of genetically modified organisms, parabens, petrochemicals, phthalates, sulfates, synthetic dyes, synthetic fragrances, triclosan or preservatives, I decided to start producing them myself. Before I knew it, I had a line of products that my friends and family loved. I started selling them by word of mouth, and the business has grown from there.
When I started using my products at home, I put cartoon labels on the bottles to make them laugh. I mean, who doesn't love to make their kids laugh? It is intoxicating. My kids loved them, and that's when the idea for TubbyTown™, a make-believe bath-time wonderland, was born. TubbyTown™'s residents currently include Dewey the dragon, Daisy the skunk, Clio the teddy bear and Ollie the octopus. Each has its own distinctive personality, and its own dedicated bath-time product. I know your little ones will look forward to playing with them each time they step into the tub just like mine do.

Pit Stop in Paradiso
Hi y'all,
When I was making my summer plans over the spring months, I of course wanted to include some relaxing beach time. I made plans to go with a friend to Mykonos in early July and figured that would suffice (in addition to weekly trips to Santa Severa beach outside Rome). Something that I was also planned for the summer was to visit in old teaching buddy who now lives in Zurich. Was going to do that a few days after Madrid.

Welcoming his guests to a décor recreating the 30, avenue Montaigne address, Raf Simons re-established the very essence of haute couture. That of the era of Christian Dior when the couturier would receive his clients in the salons of his house. A return to the strictest sense of couture, to its creative process drawing on the personality of every client and that of the designer. It is therefore a "Dior confronted with the whole world", drawing inspiration from and aimed at "haute couture clients from different continents and different coutures", that Raf Simons designs this season. He therefore reaffirms the close ties that Christian Dior had already created in his day, between his Paris home and the rest of the world. The couturier was a globe trotter at heart, enjoying travel in Europe, the United States, Russia and Brazil to meet his elegant clients. All these destinations served to construct the history of Dior and still today continue to breathe life into Raf Simons' creations. On the catwalk, influences are blended and reinvented: the pleats and drapes of silk evening dresses evoke both Christian Dior's love for these techniques and the aesthetics of Asian garments.
Motifs borrowed from masculine fabrics, houndstooth check and Glen plaid (that Monsieur Dior so loved) are seen in XXL version, embroidered on woollen dresses. Cannage – a crossing of horizontal, vertical and diagonal lines – has been Dior's iconic motif since 1953 and is reinterpreted in silk embroidery on a silk dress. The precise and delicate result appears as fine as woven straw. The Jungle print, a key Dior motif influenced by the muse Mitzah Bricard, is applied all over a silk evening gown, on long gloves stretching above the elbows, and on a scarf tied in the hollow of the neck. The legendary Bar jacket continues to inspire Raf Simons, season after season: for Autumn-Winter 2013-2014 it comes in bustier version, worn over a skirt with a slit. It opens its corolla into two superimposed basques, modernising the woollen skirt suit. In the hands of the artistic director for women's collections, the timeless Dior icons are renewed infinitely.

Richard Corrigan never fails to impress, and the Irish chef's Mayfair flagship continues to go from strength to strength. This low-ceilinged annexe to Grosvenor House (with its own street entrance) isn't immediately appealing, but a long bar, tinkling piano, petrol-blue leather upholstery and witty touches such as feather-clad lampshades strike an 'elegant but not too stuffy' pose. There's some generous 'British character' here and the cooking is robustly in tune, with a keen eye for seasonality and a talent for transforming butch ingredients into dishes of sublime refinement. Oysters and game are star attractions (venison with pumpkin relish and choucroute, for example), but there's quality across the board: deep-fried, melt-in-the-mouth crubeens (pig's trotters) are set amid salad leaves as daintily arranged as any florist's bouquet; rib of beef balances majestically atop marrow toast, while rhubarb-crumble soufflé is a witty two-puds-in-one idea. The Euro-focused wine list is extremely user-friendly, and relaxed staff deliver 'timely and polite' service.
Hugely informative, the list at Corrigan's Mayfair is fantastic if you don't want a sommelier hovering while you sweat over which wine to order. 'Wines to go with oysters' is one of the sections, as is 'inky, dark concentrated reds', but each category is bursting with imaginative, top-notch choices. And given its swanky Mayfair location, mark-ups are reasonable, too.
I was fortunate enough to be invited to a food and wine matching dinner with natural wines at Corrigan's restaurant in Mayfair. The dinner took place in a private dining room downstairs which was very dark (so apologies about the photos!) but did have a picture window into the kitchen, where you could watch the staff do the delicate dance of people who have worked together for a considerable time in a small space. Canapés were served as we all stood around chatting and included a gurnard maki roll (why do we not see more lovely sustainable gurnard used in sushi??); a blue cheese fritter sprinkled with Parmesan; and a teensy slice of delicious rabbit pie. These were all paired with a Paul Déthune organic Ambonnay Grand Cru Champagne which was toasty with a clean lemony finish and a lovely delicate mousse...

Since leaving his native Ireland at 17, Richard Corrigan has made quite an impact in the capital. His first restaurant, Lindsay House, opened in Soho in 1997 & gained a Michelin star two years later. He has also revitalised seafood insitution Bentley's & teamed up with caterers Searcys to help shape the food at top contracts such as the Gherkin & the St Pancras Grand. In 2008, Corrigan moved from Lindsay House to The Grosvenor House hotel, where he opened Corrigan's Mayfair. The restaurant was awarded London Restaurant of the Year 2008/2009 by the Evening Standard, and three AA Rosettes within the first three months of opening. Corrigan also makes regular television appearances on BBC One's Saturday Kitchen, and hosts the Irish primetime television series, Corrigan Knows Food.

This is a Trusted Review. Why?
I don't like the fact that the hostel lies in the Harlem but the zone is actually very secure and there is a metro station one block away. Everyone was very nice and in general I had a very good experience. My sheets nonetheless were the exception, they gave me used ones. But for the price and the experience I will recommend this hostel to everyone.
.... Stay in the international hostel was quite a new experience that I had never been in this type of accommodation and I have to say it was a good decision both by price, location, cleanliness and environment it .... I recommend to all young and not so young
This is a Trusted Review. Why?
friendly staff, they are very good and welling to help in any way; tips, directions, tours, the locations its good,and the transportation connections are excellent, cleanliness is something that should improve, even thought is a clean place the rooms are not, in general is a good place to stay
This is a Trusted Review. Why?
Nice Place, very close to the subway.

Related Stories
We've been hearing the following whispers from our sources around the NFC South:
• RB Pierre Thomas was placed on injured reserve Jan. 5 after aggravating an ankle injury in practice leading up to Week 17. It was the same ankle injury that sidelined him for more than half of the season. He's due to become a free agent this offseason, and while the Saints have interest in re-signing him, we hear they're not prepared to go all out to bring him back if another team makes a high bid on Thomas. We're told the rift between him and head coach Sean Payton that reportedly emerged while Thomas was sitting out with his injury around the middle of the season is not something that will play a significant role in the team's decision on Thomas this offseason.
• One Buccaneers assistant coach who will undergo a particularly thorough review this offseason is Todd Wash, who just completed his first season as the team's defensive line coach. He coached the defensive ends in '09. The Bucs invested their top two draft picks in defensive tackles in 2010, and it's expected that they'll spend at least one early pick on a defensive end this year. Wash's contract is set to expire early this offseason, and he won't be re-signed if the Bucs have any doubts about his ability to develop the young talent they're collecting up front on "D."
• Falcons director of player personnel Les Snead reportedly interviewed with the 49ers for their GM vacancy before they hired Trent Baalke, and while Snead may not get an opportunity to move up the ranks this year — no other teams were known to be pursuing a general manager as of this writing — he could draw serious consideration for a promotion to a GM position in the near future. Snead received an endorsement from Falcons GM Thomas Dimitroff this week. "(Snead is) going to have opportunities," Dimitroff told PFW. "He's a very adept personnel man."

'Cats stop Case Western in its tracks
Sep 28, 2013
By Robert Husseman
Of the News-Register
For all the eye-popping offensive numbers Linfield has put up this season, it bears repeating:
The Wildcats can play defense too.
Linfield held Case Western to five -- yes, five -- yards rushing and 89 yards of total offense as the Wildcats walloped the Spartans, 45-0, at Case Field in Cleveland, Ohio, today.
Linfield quarterback Josh Yoder completed 21 of 32 passes for 235 yards, with three touchdowns (one rushing) and two interceptions.
Running back Josh Hill scored two touchdowns on the ground for the Wildcats (4-0 overall), and running back Tavon Willis had a game-high 80 yards rushing on 15 carries.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) -- Louisville coach Bobby Petrino has announced the hiring of Todd Grantham as defensive coordinator and safeties coach.
Grantham joins the Cardinals after four years as Georgia's defensive coordinator. Before that, he spent 11 years in the NFL as an assistant, most recently as the Dallas Cowboys' defensive line coach from 2008-09.
Grantham said at a Thursday morning news conference that Petrino "is a head coach that offensively is one of the best in the country at what he does. I just felt like it was a chance to win a title."
Grantham's brother, Tony, was also hired as Louisville's inside linebackers coach and special teams coordinator. He had been the Naval Academy's outside linebackers coach the past six years.

|Fourth quarter dooms Lady Wildcats
|Monday, January 07, 2013 5:04 PM
DELPHOS — Jefferson's girls basketball team had had a week to simmer over its last game, a 48-22 loss to Lincolnview in the Chatt Insurance Holiday Tournament at Parkway, when they returned to the court Saturday night versus Edgerton at Jefferson High School.
The Lady Wildcats had a much better effort this time but were outscored 16-4 in the fourth period to fall 46-38 in non-league action.
The Wildcats (4-8) led 34-30 at the start of the fourth but then their proclivity to have that one bad period came to the fore. Junior Katie Goergens (9 counters) fouled out at 7:33 for Delphos. The Lady Bulldogs (9-2) rode Hannah Griffin (13 markers) and her nine points in the period, including the lob from Lindsey Wheeler (3 assists, 4 steals) for a layup at 5:01 to take the lead for good at 39-37 in the midst of a 9-0 spurt. They claimed a 44-37 edge on a triple by Griffin — the game's only trifecta — at the 4-minute mark. The Lady 'Cats only scored four points in the stanza — a toss by junior Rileigh Stockwell (7:04), her basket at 5:40 and a freebie by sophomore Brooke Culp at 3:44.
"We've had that problem all year about playing good for three quarters and then having that one bad quarter. We were hanging in but that 3 by Griffin was huge; that broke our backs," Jefferson mentor Dave Hoffman said. "We struggled with turnovers all game but we had them far too often in stretches; we held them down but couldn't take advantage because we turned it over too many times."
Both teams had trouble with turnovers throughout the game — 26 by the Red and White and 24 by the visitors. They combined for 15 in the first period alone, as well as combining for 8-of-23 shooting. Jefferson scored the first 10 points — with four each from Stockwell and Goergens — and Stockwell's two singles at 3:20 gave them a 12-4 edge. The Bulldogs tallied the last six of the period, including a 14-footer from the right side by Laurel Schroeder at 1:13, to get within 12-10.
The Wildcats broke their drought with a free toss by junior Gabby Pimpas at 6:56 and Goergens added a fielder for a 15-10 edge. The Bulldogs answered with an 8-2 spurt to take its first lead at 2:34 on two singles by Mallorea Landel but it was short-lived. The hosts rallied with a 5-1 closing span, including a layup off a steal at the horn by Pimpas, for a 22-19 halftime bulge.
The third period saw four lead changes and one tie as neither team could get more than a 5-point lead — 28-23 on a single by Pimpas at 5:02. The Red and White scored the last six markers of the canto, including a free toss by junior Brooke Hesseing (5 markers) with 11.3 ticks to go, for a 34-30 margin.
In sum, Edgerton downed 17-of-47 shots (1-of-10 trios) for 36.2 percent and 11-of-18 at charity (61.1%); secured 34 misses (13 offensive) as Kennedy Flower (11 counters) led with six; and added 20 fouls.
Jefferson netted 12-of-34 (0-of-6 beyond the arc) for 35.3 percent and 14-of-27 from 15 feet (51.9%); seized 28 caroms (8 offensive) as Stockwell led with eight and Pimpas five; and added 17 fouls. They visit Miller City 6 p.m. Tuesday.
"We had a lot better effort tonight; we played with a lot of energy, especially on defense," Hoffman added. "Last year, (Devin) Stark scored 14 on us; tonight, we held her to six. Offensively, we just seem to get in too big of a hurry at times shooting the ball; that has been a struggle for us, too, and we just need to slow down and not go too fast."
In junior varsity action, Edgerton moved to 10-1 with a 30-20 win.
Hannah Herman led the Lady Bulldogs with seven, while junior Jasmine McDougall and sophomore Heather Pohlman led the Lady Wildcats (3-8) with four each.

Governor Dannel P. Malloy announced a package of policies seeking to make Connecticut competitive with surrounding states when it comes to the sale of alcohol.
The announcement, made Saturday afternoon at Enfield Town Hall, represents a change in direction for the entire state, Malloy said.
"Today I take a step forward in making Connecticut competitive with surrounding states and, at the same time, moving in the direction of being pro-consumer," he the governor said.
At the heart of Malloy's package, which must be passed by the state legislature, is the sale of alcohol on Sundays, certain holidays and on Mondays that come after Sunday holidays.
Liquor retail stores in Clinton, the quantity of which are regulated by the state, include , the , , , and . Beer is available for sale at and Town & Country Market (but not on Sundays, of course).
Allowing Sunday and holiday sales is meant to increase sales at stores in towns that border Massachusetts, Rhode Island and New York — sales that represent an estimated $570 million in lost revenue, Malloy said.
"I think the governor has done a fantastic job with this," said Dominic Alaimo, owner of Freshwater Package Store on Route 5 in Enfield.
"Finally we have a governor that didn't listen to the lobbyists and listened to the consumers. ... It's a tremendous amount of money that's been going over the border and God knows Connecticut can use it."
The package includes a number of measures in addition to legalizing Sunday and holiday sales, which border-town shops have requested for decades, but many shops located in central Connecticut have resisted.
"To the owners of shops [that haven't felt the competition], I say that 'We're working with you,'" said Malloy.
"We're going to allow you to sell other items, and we're going to create a marketplace."
Connecticut is currently one of two states in the nation that does not allow the sale of alcohol on Sundays outside of restaurants and bars.
Specifics of what Malloy's office called "modernizing Connecticut's Liquor Laws" include:
- The creation of a statewide "medallion" system (in addition to standard package store licenses), which will be given to all current package store owners to reflect their right to expanded business options.
- Package and grocery stores will be allowed to sell alcohol until 10 p.m. if they choose to do so.
- Restaurants and bars can stay open and serve alcohol until 2 a.m. (subject to local ordinances).
- Some small convenience stores will be given the option of selling beer.
- Package stores will be allowed to sell goods in addition to alcohol, including snack food, cheese, crackers, chips and other items thought to be "complementary" to alcohol consumption.
- Price posting, minimum bottle and quantity discount laws will be eliminated.
- Grocery stores will be allowed to operate separate package stores.
- One person or LLC will be able to operate more than two package stores through the purchase of a medallion.

Joan Carney's rental house
October 27, 2013
I have NOTHING negative to say about my experience renting from Galena Vacation Rentals. It was easy, informative and Joan was so pleasant to talk with about our trip. We stayed for four nights and the house made it so nice for me and my four high school girlfriends to hang out together. We were able to come back to the house and relax...play games and watch tv. The house was furnished so we didn't have to worry about anything. I can't wait to come back and stay at the very same place!!

Winter Weekend Get-Away
March 7, 2012
I have been renting vacation homes at Eagle Ridge for over 25 years. Some turned out to be rather disappointing, due to lack of kitchen equipment, inferior seating, etc.. None of that applied for this house. All possible needs have been anticipated, and taken care of. We did experience a plumbing problem, probably due to recent remodeling. The owner had her handyman out to the house within an hour. Thirty minutes later everything was fixed and back to normal. If you are looking for a comfortable house to rent, I would recommend this one.

Girls Weekend

My girlfriends and I decided to get away for the weekend and this house was perfect. It was nice that we all pretty much had our own bedroom and bathroom. The rest of the house was very roomy, comfortable and completely furnished. We loved the screened in porch which seemed to be the favorite place to sit in the morning. We enjoyed the woods behind us and listening to the birds. The house was in good condition and clean. It was nice to be by the Eagle Ridge Resort and the closeness of downtown Galena. What a beautiful area. We would consider staying in this wonderful house again. Thanks.

We also enjoyed the ammenities of Eagle Ridge and the Owners Club. Everyone we met was very friendly and helpful. The only negative was the closeness of Galena and the inviting shopping. Too good for the gals to pass up.

I was quite impressed with what we got for our money on this trip. I loved the 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms in that couples were able to enjoy their own solitude a bit while still visiting with the whole group that stayed. Beautiful home and very comfortable they had everything I expected and a bit more.
We had a wonderful time in your home. My husband loved playing golf with his buddies, while my friends and I enjoyed downtown Galena and the vineyard. The home was spacious enough for four small families to enjoy each other's company and not be crowded. Thanks!

...having a family dinner with our friends and sitting on the porch each night and morning were some of the best nights I have had in a long time�. �. my husband and I were able to get out and enjoy a round of golf and just disconnect from the world. What a great place you have, and we will definitely be back...

Every year, my friends and I pick a place to get together and play golf. Your home was the best place we have chosen in our five year tradition. Each person having their own room and bathroom as well as the location to the awesome and challenging courses is a huge plus. The house was wonderful, thanks.

When someone said to me that we would go to Galena, IL for a quick vacation, I thought they were crazy. Well, after spending time up there, I don't know what not to like. The home has it all, space, cable, Jacuzzi tub. We took a family hot air balloon ride that was amazing!

After winning the special election in Illinois' 2nd congressional district, former state representative Robin Kelly will fill Jesse Jackson Jr.'s vacant seat in Congress.
The democrat was favored to win the race against republican Paul McKinley, an ex-convict and community activist. The strongly Democratic Chicago-area district includes suburbs and rural areas.
Kelly voted in Matteson early Tuesday morning, and has vowed to get straight to work in Washington.

Kelly easily won the special primary in February from a crowded field of candidates including former Congressman Debbie Halvorson. The main issue in that race quickly became gun control and Kelly's campaign received a $2 million boost in ads including ones on television targeting Halvorson.
She was endorsed by President Obama, and received a boost from New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg's super PAC, which supports stricter gun control.
While Kelly is for an assault weapons ban and is deeply concerned about stopping "straw purchases," she is not completely against responsible people owning guns.
"People think I'm against guns. I grew up in a family of cops and my two nephews are Chicago police officers and my grandfather was a hunter," Kelly told FOX 32 News. "I just want people who own guns to be responsible and accountable and those that should not have gun for whatever reason should not have them."
Jesse Jackson Jr. represented the 2nd district for 17 years, but resigned from his post in November after taking a medical leave of absence that lasted nearly the entire year of 2012.
Jackson was also under federal investigation at the time of his resignation. He pleaded guilty to federal charges for misspending over $750,000 in campaign funds on personal purchases. He will be sentenced in June, and faces up to four years in prison.
Jackson held a spot in the powerful House Appropriations Committee in Washington, and brought $1 billion to the 2nd congressional district in his time as its congressman. He also had strong relationships with mayors and activists throughout the district.
The losing Republican nominee, Paul McKinley, said his goal now is to destroy the local "Democratic Machine." He said it's destroyed African-American neighborhoods, leaving too many without hope.
"It's a very low turnout, because the people really feel that there's no hope," McKinley told FOX 32 News. "The people, as I was passing out the literature and talking to people, they really felt like there was no more hope in democracy. They felt overran by the machine and they felt like it's, 'What the use?'"
Voter turnout was low in several parts of the district. Tuesday's special election coincided with municipal elections -- not including Chicago, which elected its mayor and City Council in 2011. Early estimates for city precincts were roughly 8 percent with an anticipated 12 percent by the end of the day. Election officials said turnout was higher than the 2009 special election to replace Rahm Emanuel, who left Congress to be President Obama's chief of staff. In that year, roughly 10 percent of city voters went to the polls. Turnout was higher in the suburbs, particularly areas with contested municipal elections.
The district spans across parts of Chicago's South Side, its south suburbs and some rural areas.
