Colorado Beer Girl: BrüFrouFEST 2017
"BrüFrouFEST just celebrated its fourth year, and with it came some big changes. The 2014, 2015 and 2016 events were all held in the spring at Wings Over the Rockies Air & Space Museum. But this year it was outdoors at the Tivoli Quad, and it was in July instead. And there was more of everything: 130 chefs, brewers & mixologists, 80 culinary pairings, 6 live bands, and a DJ.
Ticketing structure was different as well. General Admission tickets were offered for $40, which included 8 pairings. VIP tickets were $125, with unlimited pairings (including access to all GA pairings plus 20 additional pairing partners), an upgraded polypropylene party plate, and perhaps most importantly for an outdoor event on a hot summer day: access to a shaded VIP tent area with plenty of tables and chairs (the large white tent pictured in the background of the photo above).
As a vegetarian, the VIP ticket wasn't the best option for me since I can't partake in most of the pairings. However, provided the set-up remains the same next year, I highly recommend going with VIP for access to all pairings and the large tent, as the amount of shade in the GA area was extremely limited. There were around 10 or so small tents available to the GA crowd, most of which were quickly occupied by groups of people who, if lucky enough to snag one, seemed to cling to them for the majority of the time. Outdoor events are great, but without proper shade, the fest might be better suited for a May or September date rather than July. But did I enjoy myself anyway? Absolutely!
Despite the heat, the beer was cold, the food was delicious, and the pairings were very well done—as always.
Of the eight pairings I had, there is one clear winner in my mind, and that was Rackhouse + C Squared Ciders: 6 Cheese Mac and Cheese Balls on a bed of apple cider slaw with cider dipping sauce, paired with Fuzz peach cider aged in oak barrels. The two blended together amazingly well to create the perfect flavor combination.
There were a couple of others that came in close second: Dar Chocolate + Great Divide Brewing: Cafe Nero chocolate square paired with a Yeti Imperial Stout, and MouCo Cheese Company + Ska Brewing: Truffelo, paired with Modus Hoperandi IPA. Both chocolate and cheese are known to be great foods to pair with beer, and these folks definitely knew what they were doing…"

Well, I've gone and done it. Sold my car to my nephew who was riding around in a car duck taped together and desperate for new wheels (it was more than time – the old Dodge Stratus was sputtering its last sput.) It wasn't that I had to… but I decided to help him out. Which, of course meant I had to go and get new wheels myself. What to buy? Which options to get… My dream car is a Jaguar Convertible, 5 on the Floor, Dark Forest Green with a Black or Beige rag top – (can't quite decide on the color of the rag) When GolfGurls.com makes me millions the Jaguar dealership will be my first stop after the bank! 🙂 But right now, I trotted myself back to the Honda dealership and bought a sensible Civic — not too sensible… this one has heated seats to keep my buns happy in the winter, and a sun roof, to keep my spirits high in the summer when I can speed around town feeling super sunny!
Buying a car is always a bit of a hassle… there's the pull and tug of the pricing negotiations, the time off of work to trot down to the showroom for the third time to sign all the paperwork… wondering if this is the year I should get a vanity plate… something slightly profane? perhaps, with a secret message only I will know? Which is kind of stupid, if I am the only one who knows it. At least it would be a plate number I would remember… something like: HOTSY or TOTSY or UGOGRL …. Believe it or not HOTSY is actually available… but somehow a middle aged woman driving down the road in a sensible CIVIC with HOTSY on her tail does not jive too well in my mind…. Maybe something like: LZYBUM would be bettah? That one too is available. And I am sorely tempted.
But having spent several thousand on the car I have suddenly become a very frugal person with heated seats and a sunroof. I've decided to forego the $125 vanity plate fee and the ongoing $75 a year fee to keep the LZYBUM on my back end. I've ended up with a plate that has some string of 6 letters and numbers that mean squat. There's an "H" in there somewhere. Is that a sign I'm still a HOTSY?
Anyway, today is my second day with the car, too warm for heated seats and it's going to rain so no sun roof. But I shall drive around anyway enjoying the smell of a clean car and some new tunes on the radio. TTFN – off to the races.

Way back in 1856, a California dry-goods merchant named Levi Strauss marveled at a new type of garment created by one of his customers. Working as a tailor in Nevada, the customer had developed a pair of rivet-fastened pants that were far more durable than anything else available at the time. The two soon filed a patent on the product and founded Levi Strauss and Company, the world's first producer of denim jeans. And while the company continues to thrive more than a century later, the road leading to this success has not always been easy.
In 1971, for instance, the descendants of Levi Strauss decided to take the company public. But after it stagnated on the stock market, Levi's once again returned to family ownership along with some other changes. The company started stocking jeans at value retailers such as K-Mart, which increased its customer-base at the expense of making the brand appear less fashion-forward. This hurt Levi's considerably once "athleisure" became popular in the 2000s. As trendy shoppers switched from blue jeans to items like yoga pants, Levi's struggled to retain its long-held prestige with customers.
That all changed once Charles "Chip" Bergh joined on as CEO. A former executive of Procter & Gamble responsible for launching the Swiffer line of products, Bergh's mission was to reestablish Levi's reputation as a fashion brand. "Here you had this incredible, iconic brand – and yet a company that had really faltered for more than a decade," said Bergh. In response to the rise of athleisure, the company decided to add more stretchy materials to its offerings. This provided customers with the comfort they wanted without sacrificing the natural toughness of denim. Bergh also stopped shipping as much to value stores, choosing instead to stock Levi's jeans in trendy retail outlets. This includes a new flagship location in Times Square that Levi's opened up a couple of weeks ago. In fact, things are going so well for the company that it is considering going public once again. If it does, analysts estimate it could be valued at more than $5 billion.
- What factors caused Levi's to decline as a brand by the 2000s? How did its new CEO address these problems and set the company back on course?
- Do you think Levi's should once again go public on the stock market? Why or why not?

We'll keep this brief as there will be many more posts about specific past events with more detail.
The Planet of the Loops was founded back in Fall 1998.
It was presented to the public by
Kurt Swinghammer, Trevor Shaiken, Tamara Williamson and Andrew Aldridge.
The location... the now defunct Holy Joe's, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
It wasn't too soon after that the Planet had officially been claimed
and the population began to grow...
Soon a monthly gathering featured various musicians from the Southern Ontario area.
The first anniversary was celebrated with a compilation CD entitled ' Doc u Ment'.
At this point Dreamstate (Scott M2 and Jamie Todd) and Kensington Market Artist Arnold Sprogis became interested in this event and partnered up Andrew Aldridge.
A weekly ambient/experimental night was born... The Ambient Ping had arrived.
One night a month was dedicated to the Planet and it's loopy travelers.
The Ambient Ping weaved its way thru a couple different venues in Toronto's Kensington Market before settling in at the popular Club Nia / C'est What? Pub.
The Ping was now a popular regular event at C'est What?
Soon C'est What? was shutting down it's live venue, Club Nia.
The Ping starting Pinging around different venues in Toronto looking for a new home.
The Ping was now a popular regular event at C'est What?

The Ping starting Pinging around different venues in Toronto looking for a new home.
At this time Andrew found juggling a busy touring schedule and the Planet's monthly shows were too much and the final Planet of the Loops event took place Oct 18th 2005 at Hacienda/Tequila Lounge featuring James Bailey, Jamie Todd and Matthew Poulakakis.
The Planet was put on 'Hold' but the Ping lives on.
The Ambient Ping now resides as a Monthly event at The Supermarket - back home in the Kensington Market, Toronto.
Tuesday August 16th 2011 marked the first return of the POTL's founder, Andrew Aldridge, to the Ambient Ping for their 12th Anniversary. Andrew performed with Quasi Modal.
Now the Planet has returned...

KPMG is to overhaul its approach to graduate recruitment and streamline the process into a single day, after research showed lengthy assessments were a potential deterrent for millennials thinking of applying
A survey of over 400 of this summer's new graduates, conducted by KPMG and independent market research company High Fliers Research, asked them about their experience of applying for a graduate job at UK businesses.
A third reported feeling frustrated by lengthy recruitment processes (34%) and delayed or poor communication from their potential employer (43%), with over half complaining they never received any feedback when applying for a role (55%).
The firm says this frustration could impact big businesses' future ability to attract talent, with graduates opting out of traditional job schemes in favour of roles in smaller companies, which are more in line with their personal passions and interests and offer a faster and simpler recruitment process.
KPMG has introduced Launch Pad, a new streamlined approach which combines the traditional three stages of first interview, assessment centre and final interview into a single day. Students will also get the chance to gain new skills, network with existing KPMG staff and partners, as well as their peers.
Applicants can apply via the KPMG Careers website and assessment centres will be taking place in London, Bristol, Birmingham, Leeds and Glasgow from October. KPMG's graduate scheme is one of the most popular in the UK: the firm received 28,000 applications for some 1,000 positions in 2015.
Simon Collins, chairman of KPMG in the UK, said: 'Millennials don't want to navigate a cumbersome and convoluted recruitment process when applying for a job and this is something we as business leaders need to understand and address.
'Our own graduates have given us some hard hitting, but really useful feedback and we're using this to overhaul how we recruit. From now on a candidate's final interviews and assessments will take place over the course of just one day and we will make them an offer or give feedback explaining why they were not successful within two working days.'

Created by Emile C. Tepperman
Pseudonym include John Benton, Anthony Clements, Brant House, Kenneth Robeson, Curtis Steele, Grant Stockbridge, Robert Wallace
Prolific pulpster Emile C. Tepperman (about whom little seems to be known other than that he was born in 1899 and died in 1951), created dozens of crime-fighting series characters for the rough paper magazines, and contributed to the adventures of many others who were created "by committee."
But one of his most popular was one he created especially for a pulp crime monthly called Ten Detective Aces, edited by A.A. Wynn for Magazine Publishers, Inc. (which later morphed into Ace Magazines, the progenitor of the paperback publisher, Ace Books).
Not quite on the level of such top-flight publications as Black Mask, Dime Detective or Detective Fiction Weekly, it was a solid, dependably entertaining publication that always included ten stories in every issue. The motto of the magazine, which sold for a dime, was, "A cent a story." Most of the protagonists of these ten stories per issue were series characters, developed especially for the magazine, and they ran the gamut of fictional crime detection in their variety. Cops, like Carl McK. Saunders's Captain Murdock, amateur sleuths like Norvell Page's Wade Hammond, masked costumed avengers like Frederick C. Davis's Moon Man, scientific detectives like Lester Dent's Lee "The Blond Adder" Nace, etc.
One of the mainstays of Ten Detective Aces was Manhattan gumshoe MARTY QUADE, who billed himself as New York City's "Ace of Private Detectives." He specialized in what he called "high end jobs," and boasted of never having failed in a case, which he figured justified his exuberant fees. Mind you, he did have a reputation for keeping his mouth shut, and when he closed out a case, usually with the aid of his trusty automatic, the case stayed closed. A tall, good-looking kinda guy, a "cool, assured poker-face with its gray, unreadable eyes, his square shoulders and his (bulging) chest," not to mention his "hair-trigger brain", Marty sounds like quite a catch.
The Quade stories were competent, and often much better than competent. Quade was not anywhere near being in the same class as Hammett's Continental Op, Chandler's Phil Marlowe (or "Carmody/John Dalmas" to give him his pulp names), or Frederick Nebel's Donahue. But he was probably a cut above Carroll John Daly's Race Williams, and perhaps on a par with Cleve Adams's Rex McBride.
The Quade stories tend to run to a pattern. Quade's called into a case, or is already deep into investigating a case as the story starts. His stirring the pot causes the bad guys to retaliate. There are violent encounters, almost always including at least one gun battle, and often more than one. Inevitably, each story ended with Marty victorious, often bloodied, but always unbowed, identifying the main villain, and collecting a hefty fee for himself. As often as not, there's no real puzzle, and the identity of the main villain is clear from the start.
It was a familiar recipe, but Tepperman handled the ingredients like a master chef, and the Quade stories are all entertaining and fast-moving.
These days, the single most important thing about Quade is that he's fallen into the public domain, which means new stories can be added to his saga by other writers without having to get permission from Tepperman's literary estate.
And that's the reason "New Pulp" publisher Ron Fortier, founder of the small press Airship 27, who has long wanted to do a series about a pulp-era private eye, has released an anthology, the first of many, in which several contemporary writers contributed new stories about "Ace of Private Detectives." Marty Quade, Private Detective, Vol. 1 (2019) includes new Quade stories by Gordon Dymowski, Chris Bell, Gene Moyers, and Michael A. Black.
Quade proved hard enough to kill in his original pulp incarnation, and his resurrection demonstrates just how hard killing him off really is.
Emile C. Tepperman was an extraordinarily productive writer during his comparatively short life. In the private eye field aside from Quade, he created sharp shooter/P.I. Ed Race (aka "The Masked Marksman), who appeared in over 50 stories, all published in The Spider. He also created a number of detective characters who made it into a single story, but he did create a few more series sleuths: a trio of federal cops who formed a special unit within the FBI called "The Suicide Squad" in Ace G-Man Stories, and Commander Sam Farrell, USN, who gumshoed for the Office of Naval Intelligence as a back-up feature in Operator #5.
But the bulk of Tepperman's pulp work was in the various "hero pulps," under numerous "house names." As Kenneth Robeson he wrote at least six stories about The Avenger. As Grant Stockbridge, he wrote at least a dozen novels about the featured character in The Spider, and as Brant House he contributed at least four novels about the featured character in Secret Agent X.
By far his most memorable contribution to the hero pulps, however, was sequence of thirteen consecutive novels, written as Curtis Steele, about the title character in Operator #5, in which the secret agent hero became an underground resistance fighter when a European totalitarian power (modeled on Nazi Germany, but never specifically identified as such) successfully invaded and took over the United States. This sequence of novels, collectively referred to as the "Purple Invasion Series," has been called the "War and Peace of hero pulps."
Makes the Marty Quade series seem positively restrained!

Some movies announce their intentions from the start, and some sneak up on you. The Power of the Dog is the latter. Its rough-hewn, side-glancing characters are full of secrets and unspoken intentions, thinking thoughts it didn't even occur to you to imagine are in their heads. It's a gothic thriller wrapped in a Western. It's outstanding.
Stalking through the center of it is Benedict Cumberbatch, as Phil, a malevolent being with a façade that's cracking. He is the sort of man who's cruel because he's scared he'll be found out, because the secret he's hiding is unthinkable, even to him. So his rage gets pushed outward toward his brother George (Jesse Plemons), George's stepson Peter (Kodi Smit-McPhee), and, especially, his new sister-in-law, Rose (Kirsten Dunst), whom he seems to despise just for being a woman.
Jane Campion — who hasn't made a movie since 2009's Bright Star, partly because she was busy making two seasons of Top of the Lake — is arguably the most celebrated woman director of our time, famous for telling women's stories from a distinctly feminist perspective, so centering this one on Phil could seem surprising. But it makes sense. The Power of the Dog, which Campion adapted from Thomas Savage's 1967 novel, is about the performance of manhood, the ways it can be gentle or can be soul-twisting, and the havoc its pressures can wreak on us all.
It's also just a really great film.
The movie derives its title from Psalm 22, in which the writer, traditionally considered to be David (who was king of Israel), is beset by dangers and pleads with God. "Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog," he writes. It's a cry for intervention, because danger is everywhere, nipping at the door.
Danger lurks around the edges of the film, which is introduced by teenager Peter, who, in voice-over, says that after his father died — horribly, as it turns out — all he wanted was for his mother to be happy.
She is, more or less, running a restaurant with Peter to help in a small Montana town. Not too far away, Phil and George own a remote but comfortable ranch, nestled into undulating mountains that cast strange shadows during the golden hour. The men employ a bevy of ranch hands, and one day they all head into town for a celebratory dinner at Rose's restaurant. She and George soon marry, but not until after Phil taunts her son Peter for being weak. (He has a lisp; he makes flowers for the table out of newspapers and books; Phil smells blood, and maybe something more.)
The story unspools slowly from there, set up in chapters that keep heading off in unexpected directions. Phil's malign presence pushes the narrative along; he's an enigma to be untangled. He torments Rose, taunting her with his words, his banjo that mocks her piano practice, his all-seeing eyes. (Dunst is terrific in the role, a rabbit trapped in a corner, seemingly melting before our eyes and his.) He won't shower. He castrates bulls bare-handed. He idolizes a dead mentor named Bronco Henry, who taught him to ride and run a ranch like a man, to make ropes and spot shadows in the hills and protect himself at all costs.
Bronco Henry's memory, contained in the saddle Phil preserves and polishes in the barn, is the skeleton key to the whole thing. Campion's directorial hand is full of sleights; just when you think you know someone, they half-turn and reveal some other angle. Phil's barbarism is partly a self-protection mechanism, and though Campion never submits to the cliche that he actually has a heart of gold — Phil is not a good guy — when he retreats to a secret spot in the woods where he revels in the sensualist, queer side of him he dares not show to his employees, we start to get inside his skin just a little.
It's thrilling to see Cumberbatch in this role, after years of playing mostly historical intellectuals (Alan Turing, Thomas Edison) and magical superheroes (the MCU's Doctor Strange) and fantasy creatures (Smaug, the Grinch). His distinctive, almost snakelike features can easily swing from innocent to menacing, and his voice, which is by turns resonant and strained to a breaking point, tells you what kind of a man Phil might be. He finds pathos in what seems almost sociopathic, a bundle of nerves wound so tight that he can't figure out how to stop and breathe.
It's when Peter comes to the ranch from boarding school that things get tricky. It's as if Phil sees his own, younger doppelgänger in Peter — a gangly boy who's been the man of the house for a long time, who harbors trauma and fey affectations and some kind of hunger to please and maybe something just a bit darker. The most thrilling stretches of The Power of the Dog come in the tentative threads that pass between them, each testing what their relationship to one another is; there's something reminiscent of Patricia Highsmith in the way those threads get plucked and stretched. Are Phil and Peter uncle and nephew? Bully and victim? Mentor and mentee? Predator and prey? After all, in many cultures, spotting your doppelgänger means you're seeing your own death on the horizon.
The Power of the Dog — like all of Campion's work — mixes the sublime and the surprising, art walking steadily toward a wholly unexpected conclusion. There's a tenderness in how she treats the characters, but no sentimentality. She shot the film in her native New Zealand, yet it evokes the particular emptiness, beauty, and vague unease of the wide open, so familiar from American Westerns.
And each creak of the house or frightened glance from the eyes is a reminder that the spirit that lurks in the walls and the mountains is machismo, perpetuated by the myth of the cowboy, the virile swashbuckler who can't stand anyone to get too close. Movies certainly bought into that myth for a long time, just about as fervently as Bronco Henry and his protégé. It's what's made Rose's life a living hell, what's thrown up a wall between George and his brother, what's messed with Phil's head. The conclusion of The Power of the Dog is less a happily-ever-after than a safe-for-now. The dog, as it has for millennia, still looms.
The Power of the Dog opened in limited theaters on November 17 and begins streaming on Netflix on December 1.

Use of Chosen Name/Gender
Penn College recognizes that many members of our community use a name in their daily interactions that is different from their legal first name. For example, an individual named Charles may prefer to be called Charlie, someone named Elizabeth Anne may have used the name Anne since childhood, or an individual given the name James at birth may feel that the name Susan better reflects their gender identity. We call this their "chosen name." For many, a chosen name is an important part of their identity, and we respect our students' desire to be called by the name they prefer.
Any student is welcome to establish a chosen name, and this chosen name will be used in the majority of college systems and documents, including class rosters, email account display name, P.L.A.T.O., advising profiles, any marketing materials that name the student, and the directory listing.
The use of legal name will remain in place in select areas of the College, where access to legal name is required. These areas include:
- Financial aid
- Bursar - Student accounts
- Registrar - Official transcripts
- College Police
Current students can update their chosen name and chosen gender by following these steps:
- Login to the Student Information System (SIS)
- Navigate to Address/Personal Contact Information
- Update "Chosen Name/Gender" in the designated field
- Submit and logout
Chosen Name and Chosen Gender will update across College information systems within about 24 hours following submission of the change.
All Chosen Name changes are reviewed for appropriateness; in the event a Chosen Name is deemed inappropriate or offensive, the name field will revert to Legal Name and the student will be contacted.
On-Campus Housing
On-campus housing is assigned based on the students gender provided on the Housing Contract.
Use of Restroom Facilities
On-campus restrooms are designated by sex. Students who identify as a gender different from their sex assigned at birth can use the restroom of their choice. There are a limited number of single, all-gender restrooms throughout campus that can also be used.
List and locations of all-gender restrooms:
- Bush Campus Center inside CC Commons
- Klump Academic Center (ACC) located on the 2nd floor North Wing, and 3rd floor North Wing
- Electrical Technologies Center (ETC) located near the Tool Crib
- Lycoming Engines Metal Trades Center (MTC) east hallway
Involvement in Intercollegiate Athletics
Penn College follows guidelines set for by the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) for student-athlete gender status. The 2011 guidance from the NCAA on this matter indicated:
- A transgender male (female to male) student-athlete who has received a medical exception for treatment with testosterone for gender transition may compete on a men's team, but is no longer eligible to compete on a women's team without changing the team status to a mixed team. A mixed team is eligible only for men's championships.
- A transgender female (male to female) student-athlete being treated with testosterone suppression medication for gender transition may continue to compete on a men's team, but may not compete on a women's team without changing it to a mixed team status until completing one calendar year of documented testosterone-suppression treatment.
- Any transgender student-athlete who is not taking hormone treatment related to gender transition may participate in sex-separated sports activities in accordance with his or her assigned birth sex.
- A transgender male (female to male) student-athlete who is not taking testosterone related to gender transition may participate on a men's or women's team.
- A transgender female (male to female) student-athlete who is not taking hormone treatments related to gender transition may not compete on a women's team.
Additional information is available from the NCAA.
Fraternity Life
Recognized fraternities at Penn College adhere to national organizational policies outlined by each individual organization. Students interested in joining a fraternity should contact the Office of Student Engagement directly.
Health Care
College Health Services provides holistic care to all members of the Penn College community. College Health Services follows guidance provided by the American College Health Association on supporting transgender students.
Although progress has been made, the LGBTQ population continues to be discriminated against and therefore is at higher risk for emotional distress. The Counseling Services office is considered a "Safe Zone" and all counselors have been trained in providing support to these students. Penn College's counselors follow the American Psychological Association's Guidelines for Psychological Practice with Lesbian, Gay, and Bisexual Clients.
The Trevor Project is a resource designed to end suicide among LGBTQ youth by providing 24/7 crisis intervention lifeline, educational programs, and advocacy. 1-866-488-7386

To continue funneling CARES Act dollars to those most in need, at their October 6, 2020, special meeting, the County Commission made the following adjustments to the CARES Act program:
- Raised the individual grant award from $5,000 to $7,500 for round one (COVID-related impacts from March 1 thru July 31) and increased the monthly award (August, September, and future months) from $1,600 to $2,000. The County will automatically distribute additional dollars for current CARES Act recipients the week of October 19. Applicants do not need to do anything to get their additional amount if they qualified for more than $5,000 in round one. If an applicant's original round one impact was $5,000 or less, they would not receive these additional round one dollars.
- Raised the maximum eligible income from 120% of the average median income (AMI) to 150% of AMI. This means the following incomes are eligible to apply: A family of 1, $73,350 - a family of 2, $83,850 - a family of 3, $94,350 - a family of 4, $104,700 - a family of 5, $113,100 - a family of 6, $121,500 - a family of 7, $129,900 - and a family of 8, $138,300.
- Authorized up to $6 million in CARES Act dollars for grants to non-profit organizations that provide direct services to those in need. The Community Foundation of North Central Florida (CFNCF) will handle the verification and eligibility for the Non-Profit Grant Program. To be eligible, organizations will need to register by going to https://www.thephilanthropyhub.org/. For questions and/or more information, call CFNCF at 352-367-0060 or email@example.com.
- Approved $1.3 million to Alachua County Public Schools for the HyFlex hybrid teaching program and direct teacher support.

I was very surprised and saddened by the front page of Wednesday's Daily Texan. I attended Mikhail Gorbachev's lecture Tuesday, and I feel like your article has completely corrupted and distorted the character of the talk. It is very disappointing to think that my university's newspaper was unable find a better way to sell such an interesting and unique story other than by emphasizing the wrong points.
In my opinion, the article made the talk sound very political and critical to current American foreign policy, while Gorbachev tried to stay away from those topics as much as he could. Although the Texan did mention that Gorbachev "said he does not make it a habit to give advice to other countries," it also stated that he said America "acted arrogantly and tried to build a new empire instead of working together with other countries and needs to think in terms of cooperation for the future."
The story could have talked about how, before coming to power, he could not talk about all the policy changes he was to make and how, if discovered, he would have been imprisoned or killed. The Texan could have also mentioned any of the stories he told about his relationship with President Ronald Reagan during the Cold War negotiations. After all, he is Mikhail Gorbachev!

Tips and tricks for reducing file sizes in Illustrator
1. The first thing you can do to reduce file sizes is remove any excess and hidden strokes, handles, points and objects.
To do this, click control (PC) OR command (mac) +Y to view the file in "wire mode". Here, you can see just how many objects and lines are floating around in the file that are hidden in regular view mode. Delete any excess mess. To release the wire view mode, click control or command +Y again.
2. Use the pathfinder tool to crop out excess data that is hidden behind a clipping mask. Select the clipping masked object and go to window > pathfinder. Click the "merge" or "crop" buttons which are the two middle icons on the bottom row of the tool.
3. Delete any swatches, brushes or symbols you are not using.
4. Save the file without a PDF compatible file.
When you save a file in illustrator, you get a save prompt with many check box options. The first one under options says "create PDF compatible file". Make sure this is UNCHECKED. A 128 MB file went down to 56 MB just by unchecking create PDF compatible file.

Nigerian brides who are planning their wedding day beauty regimen usually look at before and after makeup photos of other brides for inspiration, and also to get a glimpse into the latest bridal gele styles and headpiece (for their traditional wedding look). Some brides even lookup the makeup artist that created a specific bridal makeover that best appeals to them. To inspire you, I curated some of the best before and after makeovers from top Nigerian makeup artists. This post features 'power of makeup' transformation pictures of 11 Nigerian brides before and after having their makeup done and two of them are extreme transformations. Scroll down to see the photos.
Every bride wants to look perfect for her wedding day pictures, and many go to lengths to ensure that their skin and face won't disappoint. Even if a bride has had the best pre-wedding facials and beauty routine to glow-up her skin, she still wants to get makeup on their big day. Makeup helps women hide facial features they are insecure about, thereby boosting confidence and guarantees that a bride will look perfect in photos. There's a thing called 'the power of makeup' and that is evident in the amazing before and after makeup transformation pictures featured in this article.
Two of the 11 women in this post had the most epic makeup transformation – one was an extreme makeover where the makeup artist totally covered the bride's tribal marks totally. The other was drastic before and after in which makeup was used to reduce about 5 years from a grandma's face, reduce wrinkles and achieve a youthful look. You'll see the transformative power of makeup in the before and after makeup photos below – to find a great makeup artist to call when you have a wedding or want to attend a red carpet occasion. Here are the 11 beautiful transformation photos of some Nigerian brides before and after getting their makeup done.

The Power of Makeup: Before and After Wedding Makeup Transformation
Before their weddings, many brides are all about perfecting their body, skin and looks. In their quest to look like the perfect version of themselves, women resort to the transformative power of makeup to achieve near-perfect wedding day looks. In addition, it is a great confidence booster especially for women with pimples, pimples scar and even tribal marks.
The transformative power of makeup offers brides the needed confidence and guarantee to a picture-perfect face in wedding photos. The journey a bride-to-be goes through to choosing her wedding day look starts with looking for inspiration in photos of other brides' before and after makeup snaps. Such photos sometimes help a bride to identify possible makeup artists to hire for her big day makeover. The makeup artists whose works we featured above are some of the best in Nigeria, and most of them do travel outside their base if you ask them. Follow them on Instagram and Facebook to contact them. We have no affiliations to any of them, we only featured them because we like their work, and thought you too will.

1976 - The Downfall
2-12 record, fifth of five in AFC East, 13 of 14 in AFC, 26 of 28 in NFL
The Seattle Seahawks (NFC West) and Tampa Bay Buccaneers (AFC West) joined the NFL in 1976. Good thing for the Bills, too. The Bucs went 0-14 and were the only team that had a worse record than the Bills. The preceding draft had killed the Bills but the 1976 draft would prove much different. You would be hard-pressed to find a better first four picks by a team in any draft than the Bills had in 1976. In the first round the Bills selected cornerback Mario Clark. In the second round they snagged two long-term offensive line starters in left tackle Ken Jones and Joe Devlin who would start 20 seasons combined protecting Bills QBs from Ferguson to Kelly. In the third round defensive end Ben Williams was drafted. Williams was the only player from the class to play in a Pro Bowl but the others were very good for Buffalo while playing on some bad teams.
The Bills began the year 0-2 but came back with a win against the Bucs and a huge 34-point win over the Chiefs. Following a Week 5 loss to the Jets, Lou Saban was fired. (He coached the University of Miami from 1977 to '78 and is credited with recruiting Jim Kelly to play there.) Offensive line coach and architect of the Electric Company Jim Ringo was named interim coach. Internal fighting took place, Joe Ferguson was injured, and the team went 0-9 to finish out the year losing the final two games of the year 45-27 and 58-20. The offensive juggernaut from the year before was hobbled and fell to the middle of the league in all major categories except rushing yards. The rushing offense ranked third in the league on the legs of O.J. and fullback Jeff Kinney.
One highlight of the Bills that season was the Thanksgiving Day game. In the matchup with the Detroit Lions, the Bills put forth at the same time one of the best and the worst performances in Thanksgiving history. On the positive side, running back O.J. Simpson set the league record for most rushing yards in a single game, with 273. However, Simpson achieved this feat due in large part to the fact that the Bills' backup quarterback, Gary Marangi, gained only 29 yards passing and completed only 4 out of 21 passes, in addition to throwing an interception affording a passer rating of 19.7. Despite Simpson's record-setting performance, the Bills lost the game, 27-14.
Once again the only Bills selected for postseason honors were future Hall of Famers O.J. Simpson and Joe DeLamielleure. Both were selected to the Pro Bowl and the All-Pro teams, OJ for the fifth straight and Joe D. for the second consecutive year.

This decision is of self determination; if you should be not determined you cannot quit use of cannabis. A cannabis club can be formed where all the folks who would like to quit come and medication or therapies are given so they can easily eliminate it.
All of the folks are interested in it because for the very first time their friends compel them to test it once. These drugs have different names nevertheless the affect may be the same.

Over the past couple of years I've been playing with making 360° immersive images (what Google calls photo spheres and similar to their Street View) at interesting locations, and also trying to craft an easy workflow I can teach to others. It's all still a work in progress but I thought I'd share a few of them in these semi-regular photo posts.
These were taken using the Google Street View app and directions for doing that are here. More to come, both images and tutorials.
Independence Square in Philadelphia. You'll see a few broken lines but overall not a bad image.
Smithsonian Museum of American History. On a beautiful winter morning. As with all photography, light matters. Good light makes for good photo spheres.
On the Great Wall of China. The first photo sphere I ever published on Google Maps (after many deleted attempts). Although it includes several partial bodies (why can't those tourists just stand still while I work? :-), the scenery is still magnificent.

Sport & Explore Activity Vehicles
We have strong and safe rental vehicles that are perfect for off-the-grid adventures such as surfing, kite activities, surf fishing, camping and exploring, and visiting areas like Cabo Pulmo where it makes no sense to venture with a new shiny rental. All of our Special Activity Vehicles shown below have more than average ground clearance and feature heavy duty suspension systems. None of these are New Vehicles. so we can offer them at reduced rates, but all are well maintained and Safety Checked before every delivery. We have a very large following of experienced Baja visitors that understand you do not drive a new standard vehicle at any time in the sand and know how to reduce their speed when faced with heavily damaged dirt roads.

"Absolutely seamless experience! The van we rented was ready and waiting as described. Picking up after hours was not an issue! Adriana work out all the details with me prior to our arrival via email and phone. She was highly responsive and answered all of my questions. The pickup was quick and convenient and the taxi operator we were told to connect with knew exactly what to do. The return was just as great! The prices were exactly as stated with no hidden fees. Customer service was beyond friendly and helpful. I would not use any other company after my experience with BBB."

PHILADELPHIA -- Phillies closer Tom Gordon was put on the
15-day disabled list Friday with inflammation in the rotator cuff
of his throwing arm.
Gordon flew back to Philadelphia earlier this week to be
examined after experiencing tightness in his right shoulder. He was
placed on the disabled list effective May 2 and will be eligible to
pitch again on May 17.
Opening Day starter Brett Myers, who was moved from the rotation
to help prop up a struggling bullpen, has served as the closer in
Gordon's absence. Myers picked up his first career save in a 9-7
win over the San Francisco Giants on Thursday.
Gordon, 39, has five saves in eight opportunities this season,
going 1-1 with a 4.82 ERA in nine games.
The Phillies called up right-hander Yoel Hernandez from Triple-A
Ottawa to fill Gordon's roster spot.
