Q: Stuck on C# input validation I'm doing my first console application at school which is a Cheese Racer Game. Sixteen pieces of cheese are distributed on the board by up to 4 players. Two pieces of cheese cannot be placed on this same square, which is decided by another method which returns a bool. Here is what I have so far.
do
{
    for (int i = 0; i < NoOfPlayers; i++)
    {
        string YourTurnCheese = "Your turn, " + players[i].Name + "!";
        Console.SetCursorPosition((Console.WindowWidth - YourTurnCheese.Length) / 2, Console.CursorTop);
        Console.WriteLine(YourTurnCheese);
        do
        {
            string XCoordinate = "X Coordinate: ";
            Console.SetCursorPosition((Console.WindowWidth - XCoordinate.Length) / 2, Console.CursorTop);
            Console.Write(XCoordinate);
            int.TryParse(Console.ReadLine(), out CheeseX);
            if (CheeseX > 7 || CheeseX < 0)

                Console.WriteLine("Please enter a number from 0 to 7");
            else
                break;
        } while (true);

        do
        {
            string YCoordinate = "Y Coordinate: ";
            Console.SetCursorPosition((Console.WindowWidth - YCoordinate.Length) / 2, Console.CursorTop);
            Console.Write(YCoordinate);
            int.TryParse(Console.ReadLine(), out CheeseY);
            if (CheeseY > 7 || CheeseY < 0)
                Console.WriteLine("Please enter a number from 0 to 7");
            else
                break;
        } while (true);

        if (!TryToPlaceCheese(CheeseX, CheeseY))
        {
            string CheeseisHere = "There is already a piece of cheese at this location.";
            Console.SetCursorPosition((Console.WindowWidth - CheeseisHere.Length) / 2, Console.CursorTop);
            Console.WriteLine(CheeseisHere);

        }
        else
        {
            Board[CheeseX, CheeseY] = SquareState.gotCheese;
            TotalCheesePlaced = (TotalCheesePlaced + 1);
        }
    }
} while (TotalCheesePlaced < 16);

I'm not sure how to make it reject empty input into the console. Also, when there is already a cheese piece on the location given, it states that, but moves onto the next player instead of looping back. Can I get some help with fixing that code please? I'm still pretty new to all of this so please be gentle :)

A: Your problem is here:
int.TryParse(Console.ReadLine(), out CheeseX);

First, split this as follows:
string input = Console.ReadLine();
int.TryParse(input, out CheeseX);

Now, you are parsing the input but not doing anything when the input is invalid. The TryParse method returns true if it succesfully converted the input to an integer, and false otherwise. So you could do something like this:
    if (!int.TryParse(input, out CheeseX))
    {
         Console.WriteLine("invalid input, try again");
         break;
    }

A: This way, it does not move onto the next person when the field is occupied.
do
{
    for (int i = 0; i < NoOfPlayers; i++)
    {
        do
        {
           ...
            do
            {
                ...
                if (CheeseX > 7 || CheeseX < 0)

                    Console.WriteLine("Please enter a number from 0 to 7");
                else
                    break;
            } while (true);

            do
            {
                ...
                if (CheeseY > 7 || CheeseY < 0)
                    Console.WriteLine("Please enter a number from 0 to 7");
                else
                    break;
            } while (true);

            if (!TryToPlaceCheese(CheeseX, CheeseY))
            {
                string CheeseisHere = "There is already a piece of cheese at this location.";
                Console.SetCursorPosition((Console.WindowWidth - CheeseisHere.Length) / 2, Console.CursorTop);
                Console.WriteLine(CheeseisHere);

Case Study: Designing & Implementing Automated Fulfilment Page loading ...
Designing and Implementing an Automated Fulfillment Site
Case Study: eCommerce Fashion and Apparel
A High Fashion e-commerce brand was experiencing substantial growth that prompted the need for the business to streamline operations and build redundancy in fulfillment. They were previously operating two separate facilities: one served as an inbound operation with pallet storage, while the other facility served as a manual fulfillment operation. The company's strategy was to consolidate their two facilities into one distribution and fulfillment center to streamline operations and reduce costs. Miebach was asked to develop an optimal design for the new site that would improve productivity, efficiency, safety, and quality, decrease operating costs, and manage the project to ensure a timely implementation and a smooth Go-Live.
Scalable Concept to Support Future Growth
Miebach determined that the best way to resolve all of these issues was a semi-automated solution that has the potential to scale up to a highly automated solution within the existing footprint. The new fulfillment center would consist of a 430,000 SQFT facility designed to handle up to 200K units per day during peak seasons, and up to 100K units of returns per day. Integrated automation linking fulfillment to the forward pick stations and shuttle system, acting as an order sequencing buffer, was key to the design:
Picking Mezzanine - 3 levels of pick to belt mezzanine
Pouch Sorter - capacity of 7,500 units per hour
GOH Trolley - inbound transport from receiving to storage
Shuttle with GTP - 6 aisle shuttle systems with 15 GTP stations
Conveyor Sorter - lanes based on individual carriers
Packing Station - 200+ packing stations integrated with pouch sorter to fulfill e-commerce requirements
VNA Reserve Storage - full pallet storage for reserve inventory and consumables
Miebach acted as the client's technical advocate, solution controller, and project manager from concept design through implementation. During the detailed design phase, new product categories were announced to be released, while at the same time the sales forecast increased by 40%, underscoring the need for the solution to be scalable to address future needs. This new facility increased the client's capacity by +400% and created redundancy for the business continuity. The implementation of automation to improve quality, accuracy, and simplify the consolidation process led to a 25% productivity increase for the client.

Happy almost long weekend! Yesterday was actually my Friday and I get to enjoy 4 days off this Memorial Day holiday! I'll be busy with one of my best friend's wedding but I wanted to share this striped dress look I thought would perfect for this weekend, especially with the warmer temperatures hitting Seattle recently!
I immediately fell in love with this dress when I saw it at Marshalls and knew it would be perfect going into the summer. Marshalls is one of my favorite places for affordable finds for quality pieces. If I were going to a beach party, bbq ,or on a boat, this is the dress I'd wear! And since I'm not really "me" without a pair of sneakers, these navy Ecco shoes ended up working perfectly with this look to tie it all in. The neutral tan purse also paired well with this look. I tied the whole nautical theme together with these anchor earrings I've had for years now.
I definitely wanted to wear this dress by the water and the location for this shoot was just perfect! The dock was open with no one around and Mt. Rainier is beaming it all its glory in the background - it couldn't have been a more perfect shoot day!
I hope this look inspires you for the warmer weather (especially for my PNW friends!). Have a safe and happy Memorial Day Weekend USA friends and just a happy weekend for everyone else!

Are You A Female Adventurer Who Loves Writing, Filmmaking And Creating? Shextreme Is Looking For You…
"To all the wild women who answer the call of adventure: Shextreme Film Festival is dedicated to you"
by Lou Boyd
loukayboyd lauraloubeeboyd
Female adventurers are everywhere, they're climbing mountains, they're running across country, they're dropping in on 40 ft waves and they're riding down unchartered backcountry. Why then, does it often feel like the majority of action sports media out there is based around men? Shextreme thinks the answer is about more than the person in front of the lens, it's also about the one behind it.
There is a shortage of filmmakers sharing empowering female stories on screen for all to see. The team behind Shextreme Film Festival is working on changing that through showcasing the work of female adventure filmmakers out there and providing lessons to teach the skills needed to start documenting their travels, to the ones who need it.
Returning to Bristol this October for the third consecutive year, the cinematic festival celebrates the inspiring stories of women in action sports from a whole host of creative disciplines and acts as a platform for women to come together and inspire the next generation.
Are you a female adventurer already creating her own amazing adventure films, poetry or writing? You still have a chance to enter your work for this year's event. Shextreme is looking for budding adventure poets, writers and filmmakers to enter their work by the 6th of September. The winning entries will be featured at the festival and on their tour, and the winning poem will be published on Cooler.
"The cinematic festival celebrates the inspiring stories of women in action sports from a whole host of creative disciplines"
The two day event in Bristol starts with an adventure film school on October 5th, with lessons from award-winning adventure filmmakers such as Rosie Reed-Hillman on how to successfully film your next adventure. On October 6th, the festival then continues with a full day of film premieres, spoken poetry, inspiring speakers and and a live panel discussion.
Mollie Hughes: the Youngest Woman in the World and the First English Woman to summit Mount Everest from both sides, Creative Director of City to Sea: Michelle Cassar, Bex Band: an adventure blogger, expedition leader and passionate environmentalist and Claire-Jane Carter: a prolific writer and award-winning adventure filmmaker, join a host of adventurous female guests.
"To all the wild women who answer the call of adventure: Shextreme Film Festival is dedicated to you" says founder Ruth Farrar. "We are the world's first film festival celebrating women in extreme sports and adventure."
"We are returning again this year to offer you an opportunity to become part of our empowering film community that proudly promotes equality in extreme sports and adventure."
You can enter you own work at Film Freeway and buy tickets and find out more on Shextreme's site, as well as check out last year's films and winners.
If you are not able to make it to Bristol for the festival, Shextreme is launching a BFI Film Audience Network-supported film tour of UK's South West: Tuesday 10th October at Exeter: Phoenix, Wednesday 11th October at The Poly in Falmouth and Thursday 12th October at Lighthouse Cinema in Newquay.

METAIRIE, La.—(May 17, 2021)—M S Benbow & Associates (MSB) announces its executive leadership succession plan following the death on April 12 of Founder and Chief Executive Officer Michael S. Benbow. In recent years, MSB developed an executive leadership management plan to ensure MSB is positioned to continue to serve a pioneering role in engineering and advanced technology.
Leo L. Holzenthal, Jr., P.E., who has been president of MSB since 2007, will succeed Mike Benbow as CEO, assuming the title of President & CEO.

Holzenthal, who partnered and collaborated side-by-side with Benbow since 1987, said the leadership team is committed to continuing to drive Benbow's legacy of innovation and customer service.
"Mike's passion and example created an enduring vision of a client-focused culture that pours energy and talent into world-class engineering solutions with a focus on integrity, professionalism and excellence," Holzenthal said. "His leadership and investment in talent positions MSB to continue to innovate and advance our clients' ongoing engineering needs today and in the future. I am confident the MSB team will uphold the high standards the company was founded on."

Bóbis Ildikó , (Farkasinszky-Bóbis Ildikó) (Budapest, 1945. szeptember 5. –) háromszoros olimpiai ezüstérmes tőrvívó. Az 1968, 1972 és 1976. évi. olimpiákon csapatban és egyéniben ért el második helyezést.  Bóbis Gyula birkózó olimpiai bajnok lánya.

Pályafutása
Öten voltak testvérek, küzdelmes életük volt. Édesapja vitte le a BVSC vívótermébe, sport pályafutása végéig hű maradt klubjához. A vívás csínját-bínját Nagy Árpád, Hatz József, Lukovich István edzőktől tanulta meg, 1965-ben Bay Béla vívómesterhez került és válogatott kerettag lett. Az 1968-as mexikóvárosi olimpián a csapattal ezüstérmet szerzett. Az akkori nagyon erős magyar női tőrvívásban szinte minden világversenyre meg kellett küzdenie a válogatott helyért.

Az 1972-es müncheni olimpián az egyéni döntőben a zsűri szándékos rossz ítéletei miatt ezüstérmet akasztottak a nyakába.

így emlékszik vissza:
"Nem egyszerűen arról van szó, hogy ellopták az aranyérmemet, de azóta is rengeteg negatív megkülönböztetésben volt részem, mert "csak" második voltam Münchenben."

Featured: The Coupes de Printemps Is A Prime Place To See Vintage Cars Lapping Hallowed Ground
The Coupes de Printemps Is A Prime Place To See Vintage Cars Lapping Hallowed Ground
By Mathieu Bonnevie
Photography by Mathieu Bonnevie
Saturday, March 25th, 8:00 AM: The mythical Autodrome de Linas-Montlhéry opens its gates for an open track day with classic cars under a shining sun.
Built in 1924, just south of Paris, the track used to host the French Grand Prix, the 1000km of Paris and the Grand Prix de l'Age d'Or, not to mention the numerous world speed records that were set on its speed ring! Historically, the Coupes de Printemps, which we can translate as the "Spring Cups," used to be the inaugural event of the automobile season, with hundreds of cars racing on the Autodrome in a single day.
The track is no longer homologated as of 2004, but the Historical Coupes de Printemps took the event back to the circuit, albeit the "new" 3.4 km-long track, with its legendary ring and three chicanes. This event is no longer a competition, but a driving day with gorgeous cars to admire for the spectators, and a chance to drive on a venerated track for the owners of the impressive automotive lineup that inevitably shows up.
This track day was for pre-1972 cars in order to fittingly remember and pay tribute to the golden age of Montlhéry. Most of the drivers come here for fun, but some of them use this day for a last check-up before starting the race season (the Tour Auto is in only few weeks after all!).
The paddock is opened to the spectators, which allows the treat of getting to be up close with some very rare metal. The paddock quickly fills in the morning as everyone flocks to see which cars will be on track later in the day. Most of the cars are brought in on trailers, but the bravest just drive straight to the event in their cars. One such car made a pretty special entrance: we could hear the 3.0 CSL climbing the road to the Autodrome long before anyone could see the car.
For the on-track portion of the day, the cars are placed in two grids depending on their performance, then are warmed up briefly before joining the pre-grid in front of the stands. There are a few choice vantage points around the track, but perhaps the best is watching from the top of the pit stands; this is where the mythical atmosphere of the Autodrome is truly felt in my opinion.
The first grid, the A-grid, was mainly composed of touring cars, including a French DB HBR5 and an incredible 1932 Bugatti Type 51—famously owned by Ralph Lauren in the past! The dry track allowed them to drive hard in the chicanes, and seeing the open-wheel Type 51 lean through the corners was quite the sight. I'm also pretty sure that the Panhard Z12 that day was as fast in the chicanes as it was around the ring! For those looking for a little more speed, the B-grid was host to some great action, with the fastest race cars of the day making up the field. The Ford Escort RS 1600 was hardly fighting with an Austin Healey 3000, the BMW E9 CSL's straight-six screamed through the air, and that 1934 Maserati 8 CM was just breathtaking to watch!
This year, the organizational changes resulted in fewer participants than usual at the Coupes de Printemps, but I am sure that everyone involved is doing their best to give back to this event all the importance it deserves. As is though, this sunny day was really a pleasant way to spend the weekend, what with interesting people, a great location, and of course, the rolling pieces of art. What a great feeling it was to watch them driving on the banks of the concave ring, pedal to the metal!

This lady was selling tea just outside the train station, and although she does not look it, she was a bout as sweet a woman as you will ever meet. JD and I stopped and had some tea and she had to tell us all the things that we should and should not do on the train. After talking to her for about 15 minutes, I fully expected her to tell us to call her when we got there.

I like the colors and composition and the way you simplified the potentially distracting background!
In spite of the possibly distracting items in the background you've managed to make the photo about the woman. My eyes went straight to her, with her colors and the expression on her face.
Again, you have captured and written about an everyday scene of India. I have seen women like this one throughout India. Thanks for the reminder of home.
Love the way she is looking at you. She reminds me of one of my aunt's look. Good colors.
Stunning photo. Her expression and relaxed pose sets the tone for the photo. Good work.

More than 200 people showed support to the Douglas Center for Hope and Healing Friday during the center's second annual Summerfest.
This year Douglas Center for Hope and Healing partnered with the 29th annual Main Street Events bringing car lovers and supporters together.
The Summerfest helps the 501(c)3 nonoprofit center defray the cost of services so they can continue to provide support to the community.
"We like to emphasize that our services are free, " said board member Amanda Johnson. "We really work hard to make that possible, and events like this help us continue our services."
In the wake of three deaths at Douglas High School in 2008, grief counselor Jodi Wass and Solace Tree founder Emilio Parga were called to run support groups to the grieving students. By 2010, Wass and Parga saw a need for a program that served all community members during times of loss in Douglas County and surrounding areas and co-founded the Douglas Center for Hope and Healing.
The center now stands as a free-of-charge resource center and support group for children, teens and families who have lost a love one.
"Grieving is a process of healing, and it's great to have a support group to help you go through it," said Carson City resident Ev Musserman.
Gardnerville resident and sponsor Brooke Roberts said she has received services from Douglas Center for Hope and Healing in the past and is grateful for the support of the organization.
"We're all going to be affected by death in one way or another, and it's great to have the support. I love giving back to this organization and I will continue to do so," she said.
Additionally, Esmeralda Avenue was lined with classic cars and hot rod enthusiast as they showed off their vehicles while "Mixed Company" performed in front of the Corner Bar.
"It's a great turnout and fun times," said Guy Hannon of the Carson Valley Cruisers. "There are a lot of different vehicles from off-roading, street rods, classics and customs."
In conjunction with Main Street Events and the Summerfest, the Carson Valley 20/30 Club served brats, beer and sandwiches and performances by Trippin' King Snakes and Jakota Wass gave visitors an opportunity to dance and enjoy the festivities, no matter which side of downtown Minden they visited.
Douglas Center for Hope and Healing Executive Director Jodi Wass and board members thanked the many volunteers, sponsors and donors including; VIP Plastics, Brooke Roberts, Edward Jones, Renea and Gary Louie, Dr Rick Parigini, Anytime Fitness, JT Basque, Carson Valley Inn, Corner Bar, CV Active 20/30 Club and more along with those who came out during the event.
"With the help of the community, the Douglas Center for Hope and Healing can continue to provide for people who have lost a loved one," said Wass.

Trial looms after seaside gathering of Chinese activists
in JAPAN UK NEWS
Twenty or so lawyers and activists quietly arrived at a gaudy "Nice Home Party" rental villa near the Chinese seaside. They ate takeout food, sang along to a karaoke machine and played table soccer. But they also had a serious purpose: discussing China's besieged human rights movement.
Two years after that weekend gathering in December 2019, the two best-known attendees — Xu Zhiyong and Ding Jiaxi — are awaiting trial on subversion charges related to the gathering, according two indictments. Police and prosecutors have seized on the weekend meeting to deliver a hammer blow to China's beleaguered "rights defense" movement of lawyers and activists seeking democratic change.
Get-togethers like this, once common among Chinese rights campaigners, have become increasingly risky under Xi Jinping's hard-line rule. Under him, many journals, research organizations and groups that once sustained independent-minded activists in China have been dissolved.
As he prepares to extend his era in power, those who still speak out are wondering how China's human rights movement can survive a tightening ring of monitoring, house arrest, detentions and trials.
"This shows how they're terrified of even small buds of Chinese citizen consciousness and civic society," Liu Sifang, a teacher and amateur musician who took part in the gathering, said in an interview from Los Angeles, where he now lives. He fled abroad in late 2019 after the police began detaining those who attended the villa get-together. Border police in China have blocked his wife from joining him, he said.
"They don't want to allow these sprouts to survive," Liu said, "so our little gathering has been treated as a big political incident."
At a restaurant lunch on the second day of their two-day meetup, some noticed people who seemed to be watching them and taking pictures. Even if they had been monitored, Liu said, most thought it would perhaps lead to brief detention and tough questioning from the police officers assigned to monitor them.
Several people who attended the weekend session in Xiamen, in eastern China, were soon detained, spending weeks or months locked up before release. One attendee, lawyer Chang Weiping, was detained for a second time and arrested on the charge of subversion after stating on video that interrogators had tortured him during his first stint of detention.
Xu, 48, and Ding, 54, both have told lawyers that they did nothing illegal, but they face prison terms of 10 years or even longer if a party-controlled court convicts them, as seems almost inevitable. Some experts and supporters had expected they would stand trial in late 2021. That time passed without a trial announcement, however. They still are waiting for news of a hearing, possibly in the buildup to the Winter Olympics, which start next month in Beijing.
Although Western governments have focused on mass detentions of Uyghurs in the Xinjiang region, the prosecution of Xu and Ding highlights the Chinese Communist Party's intense campaign against dissent all across China. Security officials have vowed to root out any political opposition before a party congress later this year, when Xi is poised to gain another five-year term as top leader.

"He and Xu Zhiyong were so confident," said Ding's wife, Sophie Luo, who lives in the United States and has campaigned for their release. "That's their faith and also their weakness, I would say. They think that history is headed toward democracy and freedom."
By the time that Xi came to power in late 2012, Xu had already spent a decade as one of China's best-known advocates for human rights.
Xu sometimes noted with a smile that his home county in rural central China is called Minquan, which means "people's rights." In 2003, he and two other Peking University law school classmates shot to prominence through a successful campaign to abolish a widely despised detention system used against migrant workers in Chinese cities.
In the following decade, he and other activist lawyers sought to awaken citizen initiative and expand rights by taking up cases that exposed the failings of China's legal system: farmers whose land had been confiscated, prisoners who claimed torture and concocted testimony by the police, and aggrieved citizens detained in informal jails for trying to take their complaints to officials in Beijing.
"We must find a way to grow political forces that exist outside the system," he wrote in "A Beautiful China," a manifesto of his beliefs. The way forward, he said, was to find ways for independent social groups to "grow in the gaps of the autocratic system."
By 2012, Ding, an engineer turned successful commercial lawyer, had joined the cause.
He and Xu turned to promoting a "New Citizens' Movement," which encouraged Chinese people to exercise the rights given lip service in China's constitution: to association, free speech and a say in government. Xu was the theorist of the cause, while Ding tended to focus on meeting supporters.
Ding and Xu seemed hopeful at first that Xi's government would be no harsher than his predecessor. But they were detained in 2013 after promoting an open letter urging China's most powerful officials to disclose their wealth. They were convicted in 2014, when Xu received a prison sentence of four years and Ding received 3 1/2 years.
In the years that followed, growing numbers of rights activists and outspoken lawyers were detained, and some were sentenced to prison. Still, after their release in 2017, Xu and Ding quietly renewed contacts with sympathizers. Even as Xi tightened political controls, Xu and Ding appeared carried along by hopes that party rule was more brittle than many outsiders believed.
"They just wanted to keep alive the movement," Teng Biao, a Chinese human rights lawyer and a longtime friend of Xu's, said in a telephone interview.
"They knew the risk was higher than before," said Teng, a visiting professor at the University of Chicago. "But they didn't expect that it would lead to a huge crackdown."
In 2018, Xu, Ding and like-minded friends and acquaintances met in Shandong province, in eastern China, to relax and discuss their cause.
When they gathered a year later in the Xiamen villa, nobody there noticed anything alarming, said Liu, the songwriter who attended.
Participants had thought they had temporarily shaken off the police officers assigned to watch them. But they were still found out.
Eighteen days later, the detentions began.
Those rounded up included Ding, who later told his lawyer that investigators forced him to stay awake by constantly showing him an adulatory documentary about China's leader, Xi, at an earsplitting volume for 10 days and nights.
Xu slipped into hiding, sheltered for a time by a former prosecutor in southern China.
By then, the COVID-19 outbreak was spreading across China, stirring anger that the government had not acted sooner to stifle infections. From hiding, Xu issued a letter urging Xi to step down, arguing that he was trying to "defy the tide of history."
He was arrested in mid-February 2020. His girlfriend, Li Qiaochu, who spoke out about Xi's treatment and her own secretive detention, was detained again and formally arrested last year.
Xi now appears confident that China has largely contained COVID-19, while the United States, Britain and other Western countries have suffered waves of infections and deaths that have diminished their standing in the eyes of many Chinese people. His power seems entrenched, and the party has officially eulogized him as a one of its great leaders.
But Xu remains unbowed while he awaits trial in Shandong province, said Liang Xiaojun, who was one of Xu's lawyers until the Chinese authorities recently disbarred him, citing his comments on politics and human rights issues.
"He has the demeanor of a revolutionary — that he cannot consider anything except building a beautiful China," Liang said of his last meeting with Xu in late November. Still, Liang added: "If they had thought that the consequences would be this serious, I don't think they would have held that meeting."

Roaring '20s returns: Speakeasy Forty One on tap for Missouri River Brewing
editor's pick alert

Speakeasy Forty One will have a Prohibition theme.
Missouri River Brewing Company is taking its success in East Helena and running with it.
A big part of capitalizing on that success comes to Helena on Dec. 1, when Speakeasy Forty One opens. When walking into the front door of the building guests will be met with a bookcase, pulling on the handle of that bookcase will reveal a hidden door into the cozy brewery space.
A bookcase provides entry to Speakeasy Forty One.
"Back at the beginning of the pandemic, Snowhop had to shut down," said co-owner Adam Hutchinson. "We had been asked if we would like to take over this space, but at that time we hadn't even opened the place over in East Helena."
Missouri River Brewing is run by its three co-owners; Hutchinson, Jaramia Bunker and Scott Hansing. According to Hansing, the plan to take over the space now occupied by Speakeasy has been in the works for well over a year, but got put on the back burner while they worked hard on making what they now call the "mothership" brewery in East Helena successful.
"We wanted to make this space our own. It has its own decor, it has a Prohibition theme," Hansing said. "There will be some crossover brews with the East Helena location, but it will also have a lot of new exclusive beers."
Bunker explained it as using Speakeasy as a was to take the staples from the East Helena location and put a new twist on them. Hansing said they're always experimenting with new brews and pushing boundaries wherever they can, which is something they plan to continue at Speakeasy.
"That is a business model that we are known for and has worked well for us," Hansing said.
The changes are evident from the moment you walk through the bookcase into Speakeasy. The formerly modernist interior of Snowhop has been transformed into something closely resembling a Prohibition-era secret pub. The owners built darkened the space put in a cozy fireplace and vintage barrel tables. They also completely reformed the bar space and even have a projector to show films in black and white. The new interior design is something that the men have been working on since July.
Speakeasy Forty One opened Dec. 1.
"It was a big challenge dealing with the fact that it was designed to be modern," Hutchinson said. "This placed will be that cool little neighborhood brewery. Missouri River will always be the mothership."
Hansing added to this by saying that Missouri River was built from the ground up to meet the needs of their company as a brewery. With Speakeasy, it was them being given a pre-existing space and having to make it work.
"It's all about the experience to us. This is a continuation of that," Hansing said. "The idea is to make it a cool place to hang out."
Bunker said they worked hard to make the mothership unique and they wanted this sister brewery to be an expansion of that mentality. Working within this space that already existed, presented it's own set of challenges, said Hansing.
"It's a very challenging situation to take on this location that had its challenges. We had to re-imagine something that everyone already had their opinions on," Hutchinson said. "We are going for a cozy atmosphere. We might have this table with six chairs but only two people sitting at it, we want other people they don't necessarily know to go sit with them. The goal is to get people to sit down and engage with each other."
Hansing said that in East Helena they've already become kind of that neighborhood brewery and that's what they want Speakeasy to be for North Helena.
Speakeasy Forty One will opened Dec. 1.
According to Hutchinson, they've also partnered with nearby Conforto Restaurant, set to host its grand opening on the same day, to deliver food to the brewery. Hutchinson said they will always welcome outside food, but this little partnership will hopefully be symbiotic and take things to the next level.
Meanwhile, during the process of opening Speakeasy, the Missouri River Brewing crew has also been paving their way to statewide distributing via kegs and cans. According to Bunker, the canning operation should be set up early next year. Cans will go to grocery and convenience stores and kegs will go to bars and restaurants. Hansing said the team partnered with Hayden Beverage Co., who are expanding from their Idaho home base into Montana, for this purposes. They are working with a graphic designer to finalize labels they hope will stand out on shelves across Montana.
It has been a long year for the Missouri River Brewing Company and its owners. Bunker said the three want to thank their families and staff for all of their support and putting up with them over the past couple of years.
If you want to check out Speakeasy Forty One, it will be open 2-9 p.m. starting Dec. 1, at 685 Barney St.

High COVID infection rates in Milwaukee results in a spectator ban for the 2022 U.S. Olympic Team Trials at the Pettit Center
Hannah Kirby
Spectators will not be allowed to attend the 2022 U.S. Olympic Team Trials at the Pettit National Ice Center scheduled for Jan. 5-9, according to an email sent to ticket purchasers on Sunday.
"We have just been informed that US Speedskating Board of Directors decided in an emergency meeting this morning that it would not allow spectators to attend the 2022 U.S. Olympic Team Trials at Pettit Center, January 5-9, 2022," Randy Dean, executive director of the Pettit Center, said in the email. "The decision was based upon early results from its testing of athletes and the high COVID infection rates in Milwaukee."
In the email, Dean said this is "the most difficult action" he has had to take in his 13 years as executive director.
Everyone who has worked tirelessly to prepare the venue is very disappointed, he said, but he respects the decision to give the athletes "the best chance" to compete safely in the Trials and "fulfill their dreams to compete for a spot on the 2022 U.S. Olympic Team."
An internal process for providing refunds in a relatively timely manner will be developed, Dean said in the email.
"An alternative is to ask you to make your ticket purchase a charitable donation to Pettit Center to help offset the costs we have incurred," he said. "We would be grateful for such consideration."
If people do not respond saying they want to donate the amount of their purchase to the center, a refund check will be sent to the address the center has on file within 30 days.

Why are cash-strapped councils intending, alongside central government, to squander £897m on new roads?
The money has run out, or so we keep being told. There are no funds left for any but essential projects: the frontline services and the capital spending which cannot be deferred. Councils in particular are desperate for cash: so desperate that they are having to cut everything from libraries to residential care homes, Sure Start centres to Citizens' Advice Bureaux. Every month they have to make horrible decisions whose consequences will damage people's lives.
I mentioned these weird priorities in my column this week, but I didn't have space to spell out the full implications of the new road-building programme. What is happening here should provoke equal outrage among those who oppose the cuts, those who want to protect the environment and those who are still waiting for the rational, integrated transport system we were promised 15 years ago.
To receive government approval for their major transport schemes, local authorities submit them to something called the development pool. The Department for Transport (DfT) then decides which ones should be funded. It now has a shortlist of "best and final funding bids" and will make its decisions in December. If you want to comment on any of these bids, you have until 14 October to do so.
The Campaign for Better Transport has worked through these applications and found schemes first proposed during the bad old days of the last Conservative government, which slashed public transport and started what it called the "biggest road-building programme since the Romans". That ground to a halt in the face of some of the most widespread and determined protests the country has seen in the past half-century.
Among the development pool bids are some useful schemes, which will boost employment, take pressure off the roads and meet economic needs without trashing the environment. They include some sensible, small-scale public transport projects. But, the campaign's analysis shows (pdf), by far the largest section of the bids is for new roads, many of which will do little but provide lucrative contracts for construction companies.
• East Sussex county council, which wants to build the Bexhill to Hastings road, is cutting 200 jobs.
• Norfolk county council, pushing the Norwich Northern distributor route, is cutting 750 jobs.
• Devon county council and Torbay unitary authority, promoting the Kingskerswell bypass, are cutting 1,740 jobs.
• North Somerset council and Bristol city council, hoping to build the South Bristol link road, are cutting 870 jobs.
• Lincolnshire county council, lobbying for the Lincoln eastern bypass, is cutting 2,000 jobs.
All of these county councils are also making sweeping cuts to their funding of bus services, in order to save money. So two things are happening. Vast sums are being squandered on road schemes which will simply shunt the congestion problem on to the next bottleneck - by councils cutting a wide variety of essential services. And a massive reallocation of cash is taking place from public transport to private transport.
For a number of good reasons, these roads were not funded when the country was swimming in cash. So why, when we're now so short, are they being put forward, and favoured?
But aside from the political gains, this is madness. Oil isn't getting any cheaper or any more abundant. There's a desperate need to switch to public transport to take the pressure off the roads and off the environment. The money we should be spending on essential services is being frittered away on projects which could defer but cannot solve our national transport problems.
Even as the government intends to build more roads, it intends to excuse new developments, through its disastrous national planning policy framework, from the obligation to minimise congestion and the need to travel, except where the impacts are "severe": a term it fails to define. One government department will build more roads, ostensibly to relieve congestion. Another will exacerbate congestion by loading the roads with more cars. And these, mind, are the people who claim to be the champions of fiscal responsibility.
