Summary:
+ Version 4.5 upgrades the entire codebase to use .NET Framework 4.5, a consequence of restoring Twitter functionality.

Details:
Twitter recently updated their API to version 1.1, and as a result, the Twitter feed at the top of MPK Adventures was no longer showing my latest tweet.  I took this as an opportunity to search other third-party libraries for making API-compliant calls to Twitter which then forced me to upgrade my entire codebase (see details below) in order to try out candidate libraries that required newer frameworks.  In the end, I chose Twitter-Post-Fetcher as it fit the needs of displaying my latest tweet, and in the process I was able to upgrade the codebase to .NET Framework 4.5.

Three (3) incremental builds were deployed since version 4.4, and the following list summarizes those features/fixes:
