I had a chance to interview Ezra Kwizera earlier this spring when he was peforming in Kelowna. I was blown away not only by his music but his profound humility and unique perspective on life in Canada:
Robert Finely Tuned
I first connected with Robert Fine about a decade ago when we were both part of a delegation from Kelowna to our sister city, Kasugai, Japan in 2005. It was a large delegation of over 70 featuring many folks who were highly involved in Kelowna's community. One of the most interesting things I discovered on the trip was that while we have our tranquil Kasugai gardens they have a street in Kasugai called Kelowna Boulevard with its miniature version of the Robert Dow Reid's "Spirit of the Sails". It's almost surreal travelling that far and seeing something from your home community.Robert was there on his role as Economic Development Commissioner but also to entertain on various stages (including the 2005 World Expo) with his signature brand of Great American Songbook tunes and a highly interactive stage presence. If you're interested in seeing Robert on stage he has a show tonight, August 13th, performing alongside other guest singers with the Dreamland Band at the "Big Band" themed evening of music at Parks Alive! on the Island Stage. The show starts at 6pm.

I sat down with Robert this weekend to hear about his latest band, Robert Fine and the Finely Tuned, a small, versatile 4pc that he is starting to perform with on a more regular basis and also to talk about his role as our Central Okanagan Economic Development Commissioner. For that role you'll most often see his name quoted when new airport routes are being announced, new business initiatives are launched, during one of their business walk programs, or when an article on our overall business climate in the Okanagan is written. What you don't hear about are some of the most fascinating stories. For example did you know that our much loved GioBean coffee shop (who celebrate their 5th year in Kelowna today) is the direct result of some supportive business initiatives done by the COEDC? In the following interview we chatted about his new band, the role of an economic development commission (1:50), their focus on attracting those"foot loose entrepreneurs" (3:00), where their ideas come from on how to build our local economy (4:13), how he got started in this field after quiting his first job on the first day (5:40), and how his first project saved $5 million for the local municipalities and school boards in Ontario (7:10), and a few more stories along the way.

Feast of Fields
Photo: Contributed
The 6th Annual Okanagan Feast of Fields event happens on Aug 17th from 1-4pm at the Okanagan Lavender and Herb Farm.
I caught up with the producer of the event, Alison Love, via email to find out more information about this popular event that showcases over 50 restaurants and wineries in one sunny Okanagan afternoon.
Tickets are $95 plus fee's and you can get them at the following link: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/6th-annual-okanagan-feast-of-fields-tickets-11748119943
RD: How does Feast of Fields support FarmFolk, CityFolk?
AL: Feast of Fields is the major fundraiser for FFCF. Feast of Fields highlights the connections between farmer and chef, field and table, and farm folks and city folks. The chefs/wineries/breweries etc all donate the food, wine etc towards the event as well as amazing items for the Silent Auction.
RD: FarmFolk, CityFolk Society is a well established not-for-profit with over 20 years of history in B.C., can you tell me a little about the organization and why they're working to build sustainable local food systems?
AL: Established in 1993 Farm Folk CityFolk is a not-for-profit society working to cultivate local, sustainable food systems across British Columbia. We are supported by grant-making foundations, private donors, volunteers and by funds raised at our annual Feast of Fields events in Metro Vancouver, on Vancouver Island and in the Okanagan. The funds we raise support our work both within these communities and across BC.
In the Okanagan our Helping Farmers program offers resources for farmers looking to expand their business, produce food more sustainably, and gain access to land and capital. Our farm mentor-ship program for young farmers is offered in partnership with Sunshine Farm in Kelowna. Additionally, through our partnership with Young Agrarians, we host young farmer mixers and linking land workshops to support the next generation of young farmers.

For local food businesses we host Meet Your Maker, an annual business networking event bringing together local food producers and local food buyers to build business relationships and strengthen the local food economy within the Okanagan.
To help support and strengthen this market for local food, we host our annual Feast of Fields fundraiser and local food celebration. Held on a different farm each year, this event helps promote local farm businesses and the chefs who share dedicated relationships with these farmers. Since 2009 we have hosted events in Summerland at Valentine Farm, Okanagan Falls at Brock Farm, in Naramata at Van Westen Family Vineyards & Orchards, in Lake Country at Claremont Ranch Organics, in Kelowna at Little Church Organics, and in 2014 we will be at Okanagan Lavender & Herb Farm, in Kelowna. Now in its 6th year the Okanagan Feast of Fields shares a rich history with the Metro Vancouver Feast, now in its 20th year and the Vancouver Island Feast now in its 17th year. Feast of Fields is a great way to also promote the region to tourists with over 25% of the Okanagan Feast guests coming from outside the region.
FarmFolk CityFolk produces a bi-annual magazine that focuses on issues around local food and agriculture and is distributed to engaged and concerned farmers, chef's, activists, and politicians throughout the Okanagan. For over 20 years, FarmFolk CityFolk has engaged communities and businesses in support of sustainable agriculture and the celebration of local food.
RD: Okanagan Herb & Lavender Farm was on the vanguard of agritourism in the Central Okanagan, inviting people onto the farm for tours long before others were doing the same. What is it that you like about this venue and their approach to the farm-to-table movement?
AL: Not only is the Okanagan Lavender & Herb Farm a wonderful example of agritourism in our community, it is still a family farm. it's a beautiful location with sweeping views of the Lake and they work with many of our chef participants by providing lavender for some of Sandrine's creations (Sandrine French Pastry & Chocolate) and I know it's behind the bar at RauDZ Regional Table for some of their signature cocktails. They work hard to share their passion for farming, although maybe not what we think of as traditional farming, there is no livestock or bins of vegetables, but lavender is their "produce". Okanagan Lavender & Herb Farm is serving Italian sodas with house made syrups and rose water meringues made from their own Damask Rose Water!
RD: There are so many amazing restaurants and little eateries in the Central Okanagan at the moment, and obviously the wine industry is establishing an international reputation for the quality of our products, what role do you see this event playing in the burgeoning food mecca we're developing here?
RD: There are so many amazing restaurants and little eateries in the Central Okanagan at the moment, and obviously the wine industry is establishing an international reputation for the quality of our products, what role do you see this event playing in the burgeoning food mecca we're developing here?
AL: Great food goes with great award winning wines and now the Okanagan is also being recognized as a culinary destination. This summer alone has seen a parade of food writers, bloggers from around the world descending on the Okanagan and discovering what we locals already know - we've got world class restaurants to go with our world class wines. Feast of Fields is a great event to show it all off and we regularly have many tourists who purchase tickets to this event. Taking a look at the EventBrite ticket site, I can see Edmonton, Calgary and Vancouver addresses who have snapped up these limited tickets for this culinary celebration.
This year at Okanagan Feast of Fields, we are excited to showcase some of these new restaurants and eateries in the valley - Liquidity Bistro from Liquidity Wines, Blu Saffron from Volcanic Hills, Smoke & Oak from Wild Goose Winery, Salted Brick, the new charcuterie spot on Bernard will all be at Feast of Fields. We are also hosting some food writers along with Tourism Kelowna at the event as well, so we're spreading the news of our food scene one bite at a time.
RD: What are the parameters you give your industry professionals in setting up their tastings?
RD: What are the parameters you give your industry professionals in setting up their tastings?
AL: These chefs who are participating are all professionals and already living and breathing the supporting local philosophy. We ask that they showcase a fresh local seasonal ingredient in their own particular style, while at the same time keeping it no-waste. We ask that they serve it on a cracker, a piece of bread or that it be self-sufficient as we do not want hundreds of paper plates and cutlery scattered around the field at the conclusion of the event. When each guest arrives they are given a white linen napkin and a wine glass to use over the course of the afternoon. When they depart, they return both to our volunteers and we leave the space as clean as it was when we arrived. The menus are starting to arrive and all sound delicious, duck slider with red currant onion chutney with apple slaw (anything more Okanagan than apple?) , a crostini with house-roasted 'kadhai' spiced local tomato sauce, a Povencal Nougat with local honey and lavender, a pork & chorizo skewer with sour cherry gastrique, and each dish is paired with a wine from our wine participants.
Okanagan Fruit Tree Project
Finding a win win situation is always a good idea but rarely have I seen an idea that creates a triple win.
Folks today I'm going to introduce you to what is perhaps the best idea I've came across in years. Its called the Okanagan Fruit Tree Project and here is how it works
Win #1: They find a way to use the fruit from fruit tree's that woudn't otherwise be harvested.
Win #2 They do this through a volunteer network. The volunteers sign up with the Okanagan Fruit Tree Project and in return for helping pick the fruit they get to keep a bag or two of fresh fruit.
Win #3 The remainder of the fruit is then given to one of the charity partners in the community who now get the gift of fresh fruit that they can in turn provide to their clients.
They are actually in the midst of taking the plan one step further and having the clients of the various charities join the volunteer program - you can see why I love this project so much.
The fruit being picked goes to over 20 great causes such as the Kelowna Food Bank, Inn from the Cold, Metro, and many more.
I sat down with the President and Founder of the project, Casey Hamilton, recently to hear more about this intriguing community project.
Find out more about the Okanagan Fruit Tree Project on their facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/OkanaganFruitTreeProject
This past weekend also saw the launch of a fun new theatrical production "Pirates in the Park", a collaboration between Festivals Kelowna and Bumbershoot Theatre. Below is a quick interview with the Artistic Director of that project. If your interested in seeing the show it happens two more times this summer at the following parks:
August 10th, City Park, 1pm
August 21st, Gerstmar Park, 7pm

This is a Stout to be reckoned with!
A: This stuff pours black and is literally viscous, like half-and-half. The head develops slowly since it's so viscous, and when it does form, it's the darkest brown I've seen. Oh, and the beer itself is jet black with zero transparency.
S: A complex nose dominated by coffee, molasses, and caramel. There's bittering hops in the background as well.
T: This is the best stout I've ever tasted. I remember trying Guinness Extra Stout last year and thinking what a nice, bitter stout it was, but that stuff is water compared to this. This fills in all the gaps Guinness is missing. There's a huge body to this beer, there's no other way to describe it. Big coffee flavor, very sweet, molasses, chocolate, and perfect bittering hops to balance...delicious! And really, really intense. Certainly, I had never had any beer like this before trying this stuff.
M: Ridiculously smooth. Surprisingly not dry for a stout, but very sweet and silky, creamily smooth. Ultra-low carbonation... just like drinking a good coffee or hot chocolate or something heavenly, but in beer form.
D: 10.5%? You can't even tell. Still very sweet and not the kind of thing you have more than one of.
My bottle was dated spring 2009 of this year. It mentions on the bottle that it's best left to "cellar" for a while. Well, I just drank this in November here and I'd say it was perfect.
EDIT: I am re-reviewing a second bottle of this beer. It's been almost three months since I reviewed the last one. Cellaring has changed this beer, believe it or not, and the most noticeable change was in its alcohol content, which seems to be quite high now.
A: Just as last time, this beer has the most epic appearance of any stout I've ever seen. Extremely viscous with a tall, thick head. The way this beer develops is amazing.
S: The smell is definitely better this time around...the beer is physically putting out more aromas than last time. There's a heavy roasted malt and chocolate nose.
T: The taste is in some ways an improvement but the alcohol content of this bottle seems to be higher than my last, whether due to the cellaring process or variations in the bottles. The flavors have smoothed out as I expected but the higher alcohol content almost masks some of the subtleties. Make no mistake, this is still phenomenal, and you can expect tons of roasted malt, coffee, and chocolate, all of the highest caliber.
M: The mouthfeel has decreased in quality due to the increased alcohol content (this one burns going down, folks) but this is still one heck of a smooth stout, especially considering the ridiculously strong flavor profile.
D: This beer's drinkability is limited by its alcohol content. I love the taste of beer but I don't particularly like the feeling of getting drunk and make no mistake, after only a single bottle of this definitely-more-than-10.5%-beer, I was basking almost a little too much in beer nirvana. It goes down smooth but after you finish your bottle, I seriously doubt you will want anything else the rest of the night.

Pour into a Pint glass from a 22oz bottle, pitch black pour with a fluffy tan head that turned into some very solid lace that hung on the glass from start to finish. Aroma held vanilla and alcohol notes with some roasted malts trying to peek out...they remained covered until the first taste. The taste is bitter/roasted coffee and malts with the alcohol present but not over powering, deep roasted flavors and some wood hints show up as the tasting goes on. The mouthfeel is so dead on for the style, thick/heavy on the tongue while leaving a nice roasted mild coffee/roasted flavor at the end. Overall I'm very impressed with this offering, I love RIS as a whole and I've had a lot of Stones products...this is a winner and I will pick it up when I can.

Sampled August 2014 from bottles in pint glass.
Appearance: Very dark color, dark tan head that lasted for a while.
Smell: Sweet with strong coffee aromas, with some toasted/burnt hints.
Taste: Full-bodied with great balance of malt and hops. Dominated by toasted coffee, but with some chocolate flavor as well. Taste starts sweet with malts, then comes the roasted coffee flavors, and then a little bitterness from the hops. Overall a great combination.
Mouthfeel: Full-bodied, but smooth.
Overall: Great stout. Best if you enjoy a combination both strong hops and malts. I will buy this again.

Pours a jet black like motor oil I held it up to a pretty bright light and nothing shined thru a bit of a mocha colored head settled nicely on top perfect.Hops in a imperial stout well this one has a big dose that come thru in the aroma with some cocoa powder and deeply roasted malt.Big complexities going on in the flavor department roasted coffee followed by a medicinal quality a touch of smoke and hop dryness in the finish.A beer that lives up to the billing big bold and beautiful man what a beer!

Appearance Black as night with a ruby tinge. The head was kind of weak but lasted the glass really well.
Smell Super stout flavors. Huge coffee and chocolate mixed with molasses and malt to make this an olfactory orgasm.
Taste My Lord! The big coffee (Starbucks finest) has a lot of company in here. Raw brown sugar is a big player, along with chocolate syrup, prunes and raisins, kahlua, light toffee, and a complicated flavor that reminds me of tiramisu. This thing is awesome.
Mouthfeel Low carbonation, typical for the style, and a smoothness that is beyond reproach.
Drinkability I dont know how Stone gets their brews so smooth, but this went down like silk.
Comments Im wary of being the newbie that rates beers too high especially after my Ruination spasm attack (Im still twitching) but this brew embodies everything I believe a Stout should represent.
Update The Stone RIP has established a reputation as one of the best beers made in America, and it is very well-deserved. In comparing the 2003 to the 2005, the only dig I can find is that the Appearance isnt perfect. Otherwise, its as close to straight 5s as you can get without gettin there.
The nose is incredible and changes dramatically as the beer warms. The sipping flavors come so fast they really make you slow down when drinking. You almost want to set up a tent out in the street and start telling people about it.
The Mouthfeel is impeccable and just does fall short of some of the best that Ive ever had. Drinkability? You gotta be kidding me! I raise a toast to Greg and the entire Stone staff for putting everything together (once again). Cheers!
Update I popped one of my cellared summer-released 2005s in June 2006. Its just starting to get into the sweet spot. The alcohol is picking up steam and the sugars are opening up nicely. It still has plenty of body and will be perfect on its second b-day.

2006 Vintage - Bottle purchased at Ledger's in Berkeley
Better reviewers do a far better job on this masterpiece than I can ever match so Ill simply add this: Believe the hype. Believe every word of it. Stones RIS is nearly perfect. Jet black. Bubbly dark tan head. Vinous aromas, dark fruit, chocolate, and a massive, unparalleled roastedness. Flavors of huge burnt dark roast coffee, nuts, vanilla, chocolate, dark fruits, everything one could ask for. Mouthfeel is perfect. Smooth, balanced, well hopped, partially covered to fading alcohol. Drinkability isnt really applicable here. My brain tells me that drinking three would be suicide by my toungue says, more, more, more! I guess thats high.
Highly recommended.

Pours a dark and dense black, essentially no color coming through this beer at all, with a thick, creamy, deep-tan head that has great staying power. Nice lacing left on the glass, especially for a RIS. The nose hits with some bittersweet chocolate and dense, dark fruit sweetness (think raisins and prunes). The initial taste is very sweet to the tongue, following heavy with that raisin-prune flavor, along with bits of anise. Roasted malts are plentiful as well as the bittersweet chocolate flavor that sits heavy on the back of the tongue. Halfway through the sip, the oats, grains, woody, and burnt oak flavors come alive followed by a final bite of bitterness that resonates in the mouth upon swallowing. Coffee is heavy and noticeable as the main aftertaste in this one. Very nice. Very heavy and creamy with medium-low carbonation.
Good RIS here. In the beginning, a bit too sweet for my tastes, however, as it warms up, it becomes more balanced with the deep oats, grains, oak, and coffee flavors. This beer definitely gets better as the glass gets warmer and the sweetness starts to mellow out a bit.
2007 vintage, thanks Chris. Either this beer transforms amazingly with age, or my palate has been refined over the last half year, but this was much better than I remember it from the first time (and I still thought it was pretty good). Less of the nearly-cloying anise and licorice (much less, actually) and quite a bit more cocoa powder and even a hefty dose of coffee beans in the aftertaste. Decent roast from the malts and still a solid alcohol warmth after all these years. Mouth feel wasn't as amazing as I remembered it, though. No oxidation - wow.

2008 vintage. Cellared for about a year.
A: Black with a small brown and thick head, Nice lacings. A really good looking beer.
S: Very balanced and round, yet with plenty of bold aromas. Hard roasted malts, chocolate, vanilla, dark fruits and coffee - all listed in order of strength. Some alcohol in the nose.
T: Really good, smooth and powerful at the same time. It's similar to the smell with lots of roasted malts, chocolate, coffee and vanilla. Wonderful subtle fruity notes. The finish is quite bitter with a faint hop note, wood and a hint of licorice. The alcohol provides a warming feeling in the finish. It develops nicely in the glass - the roasted character and the fruity notes gain strength as the chocolate takes a step back.
M: Not overly full-bodied. Smooth mouthfeel and mellow carbonation.
D: Very good. More than a year in the cellar was really good for this one.

This poured like used motor oil. It's just plain black, without an ounce of head aside from the small ring around the inside of the glass. It leaves a delicate and small lace as it goes down.
The taste is outright powerful, with a hint of licorice. The alcoholic content is certainly present, although not overwhelmingly so. All things considered, it's a well-balanced beer. I've had some imperial stouts lately that didn't quite live up to the name, but this one definitely does not come up short. In fact, it could almost be toned down a bit.
This is one big stout.

Pours darker than a black steer's tukus on a moonless night. Attractive caramel cap of fine bubbles which thin out a bit but gravitate to the edge of the glass where they leave their mark copiously.
Aroma is roasted and toasted malts and some earthy hops.
Big and bold, imbibing this beer feels more like eating chocolate birthday cake with caramel icing, at least in body. The taste exhibits some of this, but leans more heavily on toast and nuts. Starchy and bready on the finish, the mouthfeel is silky up front.
Butter presents itself on the nose and palate as the beer warms, and with it a more prominent booziness. And this one will have ample time to warm, as it's a very slow sipper. No room for seconds; more like dessert for two.

Review #100 (!) from notes tidily scrawled on 11/10/10. 2010 vintage.
I poured about half a bomber into a large snifter, leading to a one-finger mocha head atop an awfully black body. The head fades swiftly and leaves behind a hazy, swirling cauldron-look of film. This looks like a RIS should look.
Gigantic, bold aromas blossom out of the glass. Dark chocolate, brown sugar, caramel, anise, roasted malt, graham crackers, maple syrup, and a slightly nostril-stinging alcoholic heat all synthesize to result in an olfactory-filling treat of a smell. Big and bad would be an appropriate way to describe this scent.
As I sip away, flavors of roasted malt, booze, coffee-like acidity, and maybe a bit of hop bitterness grip the edges of my palate, while the expansive, sweet flavors of dark chocolate, brown sugar, and caramel disperse all over the flat of my tongue. All the while, the substantial alcohol content is present in a taste reminiscent of fine single malt Scotch. The finish is heavy on acidic coffee flavors. When first I tried this beer, I marveled at how it affected my palate in "waves," for lack of a better way to describe it. I still feel that it does this, but I am happy that I can now think more critically about how the beer tastes, and likewise describe it critically. Knowledge and cognitive exercise are wonderful - especially when one can get a warm buzz while gaining and performing them.
The mouthfeel has got it all: a full, creamy feel on the middle of my palate, along with a biting acidity on the periphery. A fairly clean, dry finish tops it all off. Mouthfeel-alicious.
This is oh-so-drinkable for how huge the flavor is and how high the alcohol content is. Simply put, I love this RIS. It was perhaps the first truly great beer that I tried, and I hold it in just as high esteem now as that first time I had it. It is a truly delicious and satisfying beer and I look forward to its release every year.

A: A black beer with a persistent brown head made of compact bubbles.
S: Moderately strong aromas of roasted grains mixed with some caramel and a sweet note of alcohol. There some chocolate and coffee that comes through better after a sip.
T: Strong roast flavors with coffee and caramel. There is a medium hops bitterness but little from the roast, mostly just a smooth, crystal malt sweetness. A moderately-low citrus hops flavor and a light licorice character. The balance is somewhat bitter but not for lack of sweetness, there a fair amount of that in here. I read the back of the bottle and now my palate is locked on the fruit flavor being black currents, I might have said something different but it would have been in that park. Aftertaste of dry, roasted grain and some bitterness.
M: A mouth filling beer that is full bodied beer with moderate carbonation. Just enough alcohol to pretty much warm you all the way though.
O: Pretty much everything I want in a RIS just packed full or roast, chocolate, caramel, dark fruit, hops bitterness and some hops flavor while fresh. A rock solid beer that has has a lot going on while maintaining a lot of balance. Not really sure what more I could want that doesn't fit in the glass.

A- Has pretty much everything I look for in a great stout. Pours black as midnight with a somewhat frothy brown head that remains a thin layer throughout.
S- Deep and rich. Licorice,a ripe red fruit(strawberry?) that really sets this one apart, black currant, tobacco.
T- Milk chocolate, burnt malt. Less fruity than the nose with more of the dry tobacco quality. Vinous with blackberry almost like ruby port.
M- Thick and rich without being syrupy and suprisingly velvety carbonation.
D- Doesn't drink like it's 10.5%. A really well made beer. I agree with Stone, buy a case.

2007 vintqage poured into oversized wine glass from bomber
a-Minimal head, but deep black with no light coming though
S-Milk chocolate, licorice, Caramel
T-So balanced. Dark slightly sweetened chocolate, mild roast coffee, mild fruit, little bitterness going down. Nothing jumps out at you but it is very balanced. Hardly any alcohol flacvor. Kind of a malted milk flavor at times which kept me from rating higher
M-Smooth and creamy with a light carbonation on the end
D-Can go down easy but not enough going on to keep me coming back.
Highly recommended RID especially at the price. Drink one now and lay a few down to taste how the flavor evolves.

On tap at Brixies in Brookfield Il, served in a 12oz. snifter
It pours a pitch black with a dense light mocha head that lingered for a minute or two before disappearing. As the liquid level lowers medium lacing is stuck to the sides of the glass.
The nose is exploding with deep roasted coffee with a compliment of chocolate. It just borders between a deep roast and burnt for my taste. I'm also picking up a little pine type hop aroma at the end.
Coffee flavors dominate the flavor much like the nose. The flavor is just over the line in terms of having a distinct roasted grain flavor but isn't so burnt that it makes the beer unpalatable. Not much chocolate in the flavor but alcohol in the backend is a large component. This is my first time having this beer and I can see why people rave about aged versions.
The carbonation is much too high and distracting from a smooth mouthfeel. It finishes pretty dry which I much prefer over a sweet finish in RIS' Drinkability is ok but not great mostly due to the high carbonation. If I let this one sit for 30 minutes to an hour I bet it would improve.

The Poshest Porta-Porites in Town
By Danny Wicentowski
Among the goodies he's uncovered are hundreds of Mardi Gras beads, a disposable camera, a half-dozen pairs of sunglasses, a bottle of Mike's Hard Lemonade and a pair of ripped bikini bottoms advertising a nonexistent Web site, www.eatme-inc.com.
Having quickly tossed overboard the worthless camera and moldy bottle of booze, McNitt and Coursey find solace in identifying two pairs of sunglasses as Serengetis and Oakleys, both of which retail well north of $100. McNitt sells the sunglasses for between $50 and $100 a pop, meaning today's dive netted anywhere from $50 to $200. Not a great day, but not a bad one either.
Buoying McNitt's spirit is the knowledge that in Party Cove buried treasure is a renewable resource, and Labor Day promises a bountiful harvest.
"Sometimes when you hit a good pocket of stuff down there, it's like going to the grocery store," he muses. "Other times, you're not so lucky."

Historic Buildings
Some 92 homes, nearly two-thirds of the original town, were gutted by fire in 1843, after which Egersund was reconstructed with wide streets to thwart the spread of future fires. Most buildings in the Old Town date from this period. Strandgaten , a street of timber houses constructed after 1843, is well worth a stroll.

Invitations and life lessons from Palm Beach
By Shannon Donnelly
At this time of year, the mail brings lots of invitations. Some of them invite us to "go to hell" and end with four letters which are not RSVP, but most are lovely.
Some are quietly hysterical, like the one from Mark Brentlinger and Bryan McDonald for their New Year's Eve party.
The invitation gently chides entourage-bringers that, "While we wish for peace on earth and goodwill for all mankind, we cannot, unfortunately, entertain all mankind."
And, in a wry reference to the smoking ash heap that was once the Palm Beach economy, they suggest guest wear "Heavy Jewels. If you have any left…."
Life lessons … You can take the girl out of Palm Beach, but you can't take Palm Beach out of the girl.
Melanie Davis Ryan was a debutante in 1975 at the Palm Beach Opera Ball and Debutante Cotillion, back in the days when a "coming out" meant something entirely different from what it means today.
There is that dancing thing and mirror ball in common, however.
This year, she served as chairwoman of the inaugural Mills Peninsula Thanksgiving Cotillion in California and, she writes, "I intend to do Palm Beach proud."
The event took place at the swank Olympic Club in San Francisco — so far, so good, Melanie — and introduced six young women at a white-tie dinner dance to benefit the Women's Center at Mills-Peninsula Hospital, specifically the mammography program for uninsured women.
Looks like Melanie took all the right lessons from Palm Beach — be charitable, help the less fortunate, and serve on a committee.
Oh, and let's not forget "always keep a pair of elbow-length gloves ironed."
About the Author
Shannon Donnelly has spent decades covering the Palm Beach social scene with a gimlet eye, which is unsurprising considering her favorite drink is the vodka gimlet. And champagne. And the margarita. And the mojito. Her assignments for PBDN have put her aboard the HMS Brittania, in the Royal Enclosure at Ascot, at the Democratic and Republican conventions, toe-to-toe with Shaquille O'Neal at Donald Trump's wedding reception, and freezing her butt off at the inauguration of George W. Bush. She has yet to be taken from an event in handcuffs. But, you never know…

Rumors of a December 29th DVD and Blu-ray release date for Fox's under-performing horror flick Jennifer's Body have been circulating for over a week, but we can now confirm them as official thanks to Fox Home Entertainment. If that weren't enough, the company has also released full details on the extras included with both packages. As is becoming the norm, DVD purchasers get far less than their Blu-ray owning brethren...
The Blu-ray package is a two-disc unrated set packed with all sorts of goodies, including the theatrical widescreen feature film, audio commentary with Director Karyn Kusama and writer Diablo Cody, an extended widescreen version featuring audio Commentary with director Karyn Kusama, deleted scenes, Jennifer's Body: The Dead Pool, video diaries with the cast and crew, Megan Fox Is HOT, Megan Fox "Peer Pressure" PSA and Fox Movie Channel Presents 'Life After Film School' With Writer Diablo Cody. Did Cody even go to film school?
The second disc of the Blu-ray package features a digital copy of the extended version of the film.
Meanwhile if you're one of those poor shlubs (like me) still surviving with boring old DVD, here's what you can expect:
• Theatrical Widescreen Feature Film
• Audio Commentary with Director Karyn Kusama and Writer Diablo Cody
• Extended Widescreen Version
• Audio Commentary with Director Karyn Kusama
That's a much shorter list. The lesson here? Buy a Blu-ray player.

I'd like to use PlayN to create a client/server card game, e.g. Hearts. While I'm mostly focusing on the HTML5 output, I'd ideally like to be output-platform-agnostic in case I decide to make an Android client in the future. How should I approach the RPC mechanism?
These are the options I've thought of:
- Use JSON for RPCs with get()/post() methods - write a servlet that accepts/returns JSON, and make all versions of client code use that. This seems doable, but I'm concerned about JSON's verbosity. Once I get Hearts working I'd like to move on to more complex games, and I'm worried that JSON will result in a lot of much-larger-than-necessary messages being passed back and forth between client and server. I don't actually know how to work with JSON in Java, but I assume this is doable. Are my assumptions in-line? How well does Java work with JSON?
- Continue using GWT-RPC. I can do this by taking an asynchronous service interface in my core (platform-agnostic) constructor, and in my HTML main() I pass in the GWT Async interface generated by
GWT.create(MyService.class)(or at least a wrapper around it). I have no idea how well this would work for non-HTML versions though. Is it possible for me to use GWT-RPC from client-side Java code directly?
- Use some other form of RPC. Any suggestions?

A Lubbock woman is behind bars this afternoon after police say she tried to start a fire inside a home in Central Lubbock.
40-year-old Ruby Gonzalez is now charged with arson.
The fire broke out around 7 a.m. Friday morning at a home near Avenue L and 29th Street near Bean Elementary School.
Police believe the fire started on or near the couch, but they have not said exactly how it started. They say Gonzalez was seen leaving the home with her daughter, carrying packed bags moments before the fire started.
Her bond is set at more than $50,000 dollars.

America Online announced that it has exceeded 3.5 million subscribers, making it the largest online service. CompuServe currently claims about 3.4 million subscribers, and Prodigy more than 2 million.

The promotion includes a CompuServe display, distribution of free software and membership kits and prizes for fans (CompuServe)....Despite SportsChannel Florida's acquisition of U/Miami football rights, TCI and Continental Cablevision "say they have no plans to bring back the channel." Barry Jackson writes that SportsChannel "probably needs to acquire one of the local pro teams to get back on every cable system in South Florida." SportsChannel is expected to pursue the Marlins and Panthers, whose contracts are up next year, but getting the Lightning or Devil Rays would boost SportsChannel upstate where the Sunshine Network "dominates" (MIAMI HERALD, 9/8)....Still no word on Astros radio rights. Incumbent KPRC-AM is "intent on keeping the games," but KILT-AM is making a "big push." KTRH-AM is the "surprise contender" (HOUSTON CHRONICLE, 9/8)....The Center for Media Education and the United Church of Christ will protest the proposed sale of CBS to Westinghouse with the FCC (WASHINGTON POST, 9/8)....Merger talks between US West and Cablevision have reportedly broken off (NEWSDAY, 9/7). ....MSG Network is expected to announce Monday the signing of Kenny Albert, the 27-year-old son of Marv Albert, to handle Rangers games and other assignments.

For being off the beaten path (in no man's land between Youngstown and Cleveland) this brewery makes some pretty good brews and should be visited by anyone passing through. This robust porter is certainly one of those good beers that should tempt one to visit this fine establishment. The Main Street Joe is a very solid coffee porter like a good morning cup of joe which I presume is it's name sake. Great appearance with a thick frothy head and pitch black color. The aroma is stoked with malt, a hint of coffee, and not much else. Upon tasting, the Arabica Espresso beans immediately impact your tongue, there is a very faint taste of hops, and a solid malt backbone backs it up. While the coffee taste is certainly there, it doesn't over power you in the slightest and overall is proportioned perfectly. This a great beer, although it comes close to being slightly choppy in mouthfeel, but not too close. Lacing is non-existant (could be a result of the pint glass) but the head lasts throughout the drinking process. Based on taste and that it's only 5.8% (pretty normal for a porter) you can certainly have more than one and enjoy every sip.
Overall I highly recommend this year round brew - but don't take my word for it (yes, Reading Rainbow), get off the interstates and stop in at Main Street Grill and Brewing Co.!

Served on tap into a shaker glass
A- Poured black with big frothy mocha colored head with some big bubbles. Left some clingy lace
S- Big roasty coffee smell and chocolate
T- Big roasty charred espresso taste, some rich chocolatey notes, and a jam like fruitiness (like a raspberry jam)
M- Medium body and very aggressive carbonation, pretty fizzy for the style. Not very creamy or smooth
O- This is a really good porter. Great tasting and in the same league as Edmund Fitzgerald in taste. A little fizzy and not as creamy as I like for the style, but overall very drinkable and a big flavorful coffee forward porter.

An excellent pairing with dessert. The coffee tones are neither bland or overstated. It's just right, and I very much enjoy it with my turtle cheesecake, or whatever this is again. Thankfully, no turtles were harmed in the making of this dessert. Anyways. This beer is a good one. Nice coffee tones. I'd call this the perfect coffee beer.

Wapakoneta city officials plan to continue to refine rules regarding wind turbines and solar panels within the city limits in the next few months, but they have no plans to take a new stance on a proposed wind farm north of the city.
A dispatcher at the Wapakoneta Police Department says she got into the law enforcement field of work because of the inspiration of her father and the ability to help others in her community.
Vicki Harrison, a dispatcher at the Wapakoneta Police Department, is retiring this week after 30 years.
"I always had an interest in this," Harrison said of why she decided to go into the law enforcement career. "My father (Roger Shoffstall) is my true inspiration. He was a volunteer firefighter and volunteer policeman for Buckland."
ST. MARYS — To achieve the many goals people have for themselves, Bruce Boguski suggests acting a little childish.
"I'm suggesting we go back to being kids," Boguski said Monday during his motivational speech for Grand Health Challenge and Grand Health Family Challenge participants. "When you were children, you knew everything that it was going to take to get anything you wanted in life. You knew what it was going to take to be successful."
After two decades, an Auglaize County organization eclipsed the $500,000 mark for their cause — funds used to protect and develop land for pheasants and other wildlife.
The Auglaize County Pheasants Forever organization celebrated reaching the milestone Saturday during their 21st annual banquet and fundraiser in the Junior Fair Building at the Auglaize County Fairgrounds.
Like area homeowners, city crews have taken advantage of the warm weather, but one city administrator does not want to predict they can do any additional projects this summer until the later this spring.
"It has been a extremely busy this spring and we have even been busy this entire winter since it has been extremely light weather," Mayor Rodney Metz said. "The Electric Department has been able to be out all winter changing transformers to keep up with that project. In the past, we haven't been able to do that.
With $55,000 in scholarships available to Wapakoneta students, the director of an area community foundation wants to make sure everyone who can take advantage of the opportunity to apply for aid.
Wapakoneta Area Community Foundation (WCAF) Executive Director Larry Tester has been working closely with school administrators to get the message out about how much is available in a variety of scholarships for local students seeking college degrees.
"We are offering 40 scholarships this year," Tester said.
The Auglaize County engineer scheduled 21 structures for replacement or rehabilitation as part of Auglaize County's bridge replacement program in 2012.
The total price tag for the projects is $549,200, with $200,000 representing material costs.
"It's all very labor intensive," Auglaize County Engineer Doug Reinhart said. "By the fact that income from license plate fees and gasoline taxes for 2012 are projected below the income seen in 2006, much of the program will be comprised of bridge rehabilitation.
For one local woman attending the Lima Jefferson Awards banquet earlier this week as one of eight finalists served as a recognition for her work beyond her belief.
As she sat in the audience Tuesday reflecting on the accomplishments of the other seven people, Wapakoneta's Marlene Froning says she was just so honored to be mentioned with an esteemed group where any of the others work could earn them the privilege of attending the national Jefferson Awards in Washington, D.C. — and then they called her name.
As owners and operators of JCS Audio, Jean and John Slone looked forward to providing sound for the Auglaize County Relay For Life each year.
For 12 years, the Slones offered their sound services at a substantially reduced rate for the relay.
"We would do all of the sound from start until the end," Jean Slone said. "We played music while people were walking. We would provide sound for the opening and closing ceremony. Some years we had bands or choirs or other acts. We would set up the sound for everything."
Dipping salty pretzel rods in warm, melted milk chocolate, a group of fourth-grade girls carefully twisted the pretzels around to make the perfect treat.
The key — not to get too much chocolate on the pretzels — the girls said in unison after some time spent making the confections they plan to sell next week to other Wapakoneta Elementary School students.
Also important are speed and neatness, which don't always go hand-in-hand in the candy-making business.

Very cozy, comfortable, convenient place to stay.
My wife and another couple stayed multiple times at this property. We loved how cozy it is for any season! We stayed a weekend in every season to enjoy the Catskills. Multiple hikes are just minutes away by car, there are a full supermarket, liquor store in case you forgot your wine, and many activities ranging from hikes to playing tennis easily accessible. The house has all the necessary utensils and items to enjoy a great stay of calm, rest and gatherings with close friends. Tired of hiking? just relax on the large patio for a sun bath and/or a BBQ. The owner provide bikes with helmets too! We were able to get to Storm King, Woodstock and hikes the most scenic peaks the Catskills have to offer. Great place to stay!
Time of Our Life
We had the most wonderful family get together at this serene retreat. The manager was helpful in suggesting great places to hike, bike and not-to-miss locations. The house is idyllic and so many areas for a big group not to feel like we were on top of one another. The grounds were serene and there was nothing quite like having a cup of coffee on the tower deck in the early morning. The hot tub was soothing and we spent a good amount of time just lounging and enjoying the house which was well kept and exactly what we needed to disconnect and recharge. We will surely be back again soon.
Relaxing Getaway, Beautiful Views
We had a wonderful time at the home over Memorial Day Weekend. The house is well-maintained and comfortable. Traveling with 5 adults and 1 toddler, the common space was key as we spent a great deal of time making meals together and enjoying the beautiful scenery! The firepit is a great benefit - at night we enjoyed making s'mores and star-gazing. The home's proximity to downtown was also very convenient. One quick note - there are no window treatments (mostly so you can enjoy the incredible views) - so our little one was up with the sun. :) You might want to bring an eyemask if you're looking to sleep in (though with so much to do, you don't want to spend all your time sleeping-in!).
