Hundreds of people packed the first — but certainly not last, and defintiely sold-out — DStill, “An American Craft Spirit & Cocktail Showcase,” at the McNichols building last night, drinking in the atmosphere…and drinking up some of this state’s most liquid assets. The event was a triumph for the Colorado Distillers Guild, which partnered with the Denver Bartenders Guild and Eat Denver to put on the event; it happened to coincide with the American Distilling Institute’s tenth anniversary Craft Spirit Conference in town this week.

The number of craft distilleries in Colorado has doubled over the past two years, to more than forty today. “I can only say I feel damn fortunate to be surrounded by amazing people, passionate about their craft and committed to putting out only the highest quality, small-batch distilled spirits that they are proud to put their names on,”CDG president Rob Masters said in his greeting to DSTILL guests. “As our industry grows and life gets busy, we remind ourselves of the importance of coming together.”
And come together they did. Keep reading for photos of this amazing night.

Tempo: A Calendar App From The Makers of Siri

WHEN ARE PRYING EYES HELPFUL? WHEN THEY SCHEDULE YOUR DAY.

Most of us want privacy in our apps. We worry about them digging through our Facebook feeds, let alone something more personal like our email. But what’s possible when we take a leap of faith, and just hand it all over to a robot that’s smarter than us?

You get something like Tempo, an incredibly ambitious iPhone calendar app from SRI (who created Siri). Tempo isn’t just some skin for your Apple or Google Calendar. It’s more akin to a personal assistant built from AI that connects your appointments to the world of data lurking in your correspondence. Tempo digs through your email (Gmail, Exchange, iCloud, Yahoo, or IMAP) and combines this information with your calendar to create contextual appointments.

Universities usually try to attract students with successful alumni, traditional advertisements, and in the case of elite schools, a positive track record. UTEC, the University of Engineering and Technology in Lima, Peru, decided to pull off a clever engineering stunt to attract a new class of techie do-gooder students: create a billboard on the Pan-American Highway that generates potable water out of thin air.
