Local duo brings the cinematic spotlight to Boulder once again
The sisters Beeck are calm and happy in their office, despite the fact that in just weeks they’ll open their sixth-annual Boulder International Film Festival, where Alec Baldwin will make a cameo, Blythe Danner will be on hand for a screening of her new film, The Lightkeepers, and 47 films will be watched, discussed and enjoyed.

We’ve eaten, nibbled, sipped and gobbled. Here are our favorites.
Over the last 12 months, the restaurants of the North Metro area have taken us on a culinary thrill ride of epic proportions. We’ve produced a Top Chef and a Gayot Top 40 restaurant. We’ve seen national acclaim—with the Wall Street Journal calling Boulder the best small city for food in the country and Louisville’s “best place to live” ranking putting the spotlight on eateries like Waterloo and Empire. Restaurants throughout the community have continued to wow us with seasonality, locally grown produce and locally nourished protein; with flavor-focused, well-balanced dishes; and with continued style and swagger, even in disconcerting economic times.
While the dishes to follow are 25 of our favorites, they by no means embody all the amazing meals we’ve experienced in the last 12 months. It’s truly been a good year to be a foodie.

The single life: It’s lamented in song, engorged with depravity on TV, and made depressing, sad and pathetic in movies.

Being single is a different experience for everyone: some loath the feeling of loneliness, some love the freedom to fly solo and some just enjoy having the toilet seat down. One thing is clear though, love and loving life is not saved for those who have found their soul mates. So, on V-Day, we celebrate the bachelors and bachelorettes in our towns, cities and neighborhoods. From the suburbia of Superior to the bars of Boulder, we sat down with some scintillating local singles at Broomfield’s Aloft to talk love, life and letting loose. Hair and make-up by Salon Cosabella in Broomfield’s Arista.

It’s been a rocky road for charters
In the fall of 1993, the first charter schools in Colorado opened. The previous legislative session had been rife with debate over these newfangled schools, but the movement had support from then-governor Roy Romer and numerous interest groups.
