Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee Clem Burke of Blondie toured the Museum today!
Each year, more than 100 musicians, celebrities and artists tour the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum. This past holiday weekend, we were pleased to welcome actors David Arquette and Danny DeVito along with his wife actress Rhea Perlman, as well as the bands Seether and Neon Trees to the Museum.
Check out photos from their tours at the Museum below! (You really never know who you might run into while you're here!)
President and CEO of the Rock Hall Terry Stewart, actress Rhea Perlman, actor and director Danny DeVito, and Rock Hall exhibitions coordinator Shelby Morrison at the Museum on Saturday, May 28, 2011. Of his visit to the Museum, DeVito called the Rock Hall "far out..you gotta see this" via his Twitter page.
Actor David Arquette (center) toured the Rock Hall with a friend (left) and Terry Stewart (right) on Friday, May 27, 2011. Arquette particularly enjoyed the Museum's Elvis exhibit pictured here and also on the actor's Twitter page.

Each year, more than 100 musicians, celebrities and artists tour the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum. This past weekend, we were pleased to welcome groups Taking Back Sunday, Far East Movement, Hinder and My Darkest Days, as well as actress and singer/songwriter Victoria Justice and actor/comedian Bill Maher to the Museum.

Los Angeles electrohop group Far East Movement visited the Rock Hall on Friday, July 22nd. The band, who have toured with Lady Gaga and Rick Ross, were particularly fans of the Beastie Boys, Snoop Dogg and Nine Inch Nails - the latter being a band they were pleasantly surprised to discover is from Cleveland.
Rock band Taking Back Sunday toured the Rock Hall on Saturday, July 23rd. The band visit the Museum on most of their tour-stops in Cleveland, even tweeting this photo while here. Their favorite artists featured in the Rock Hall's collection include Talking Heads, the Beatles, the Who and Nirvana.

U2 played the next-to-last show on their 360° World Tour on Tuesday at Heinz Field in Pittsburgh. I was fortunate to have been there to witness this amazing spectacle. The tour kicked off back in 2009, ostensibly in support of the band's No Line on the Horizon album, and it has grossed more than $700 million. The stage set is unbelievable, with a claw-shaped stage structure that is 168 feet tall, with massive video screens. I've never seen a stage set that comes close to this one.
U2 opened the concert with four songs from their 1991 Achtung Baby album: "Even Better Than the Real Thing," "The Fly," "Mysterious Ways" and "Until the End of the World." They then played "I Will Follow" from their 1980 debut album, Boy. "Get on Your Boots" and "Stay" followed. Astronaut Mark Kelly, the husband of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, then appeared on the giant video screens to say, "Hello, Pittsburgh!" and introduce the next song, "Beautiful Day." From that point, the show continued to get better and better, as U2 played hit after hit, including "Elevation," "Pride (In the Name of Love)," "City of Blinding Lights," "Sunday Bloody Sunday," "Vertigo," "Walk On ...
Although guitarist, vocalist and songwriter Devon Allman shares a surname that will ring familiar to rock and roll fans, Devon has cultivated a sound all his own. He's mindful of his family's storied musical legacy and the contributions of other venerable rock pioneers, but also has an ear for what's next. The son of Allman Brothers Band founding member, vocalist and key player Gregg Allman, and nephew of virtuoso guitarist Duane Allman, Devon records and performs in blues-rock outfits Honeytribe and Royal Southern Brotherhood. Earlier this year, Devon wrapped recording sessions for his solo debut, Turquoise, scheduled for release in February 2013, and is currently on tour in the United States. Recently, Devon visited the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum in Cleveland, Ohio, and took time to share his thoughts on being an Allman, his influences both old and new (and familial), making music on his own terms, highlights of the Museum's collection and seeing the instruments played by Gregg and Duane Allman.

On a rare day off on our recent U.S. tour, both The Zombies and the band supporting us, Et Tu Brucé had the honour of being given a fantastic V.I.P. tour of Cleveland's superb Rock And Roll Hall of Fame.
We have actually visited before – as far as we can recall, though, not for eight years or so – but were absolutely stunned by the way the place has grown in that time, both in a physical sense and also the nature of what it has to offer. In actual fact, we stayed about three hours, and only managed to wander around about a third of it! It's an absolutely fascinating place, and one that now definitely demands to be visited several times – there's just too much to be packed in on one visit.
PHOTO GALLERY: The Zombies Tour the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum
We started off by being given a kind and warm welcome by Greg Harris, who is, I believe, the head of the whole operation. Then we were shown around the vaults, to get glimpses of some of the stuff not presently available to be shown to the ...
With more than a dozen albums and nearly 30 years under their collective belt, Yo La Tengo – Ira Kaplan, Georgia Hubley and James McNew – have enjoyed success entirely on their own terms. They've played everywhere, from the world's best-known concert halls and museums to dives and clubs, dominating critics' lists, doing a "Simpsons" theme, playing the Velvet Underground in I Shot Andy Warhol, sharing stages with some of the most important musicians of our time, and even creating a holiday tradition onto themselves with their yearly series of Hanukkah shows at Hoboken, New Jersey's legendary club Maxwells, from which they've donated hundreds of thousands to charity.
In 2013, Yo La Tengo released Fade, featuring 10 songs recorded at Chicago's Soma studios with producer John McEntire. The resulting collection of songs features that band's signature layered arrangements, flush with controlled guitar noise and strings; alongside gentle, whispered pop flights.
Kaplan, Hubley and McNew recently visited the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum in Cleveland, Ohio, as well as the Rock Hall's Library and Archives. While here, the Rock Hall caught up with Kaplan, who shares thoughts on his first records, favorite Yo ...
Nine Inch Nails had been building its reputation in the industrial music scene since 1988, but with the release of their second full album, The Downward Spiral, in March 1994, the band was poised to take its intense sound to a wider audience. Their aggressive and sometimes haunting evening performance at Woodstock in 1994 was groundbreaking. It had been raining most of the day and the band decided to use the mud that filled the field as part of their show – coating themselves and their equipment in it along with the audience. The fact that entire thing was broadcast to a pay-per-view audience helped to push them into worldwide mainstream success.
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum will open its latest featured exhibit, Common Ground: The Music Festival Experience on Friday, April 25, 2014. The exhibition will be an engaging look at the music festival as more than just an outdoor concert, but as a community experience. Whether it's forging human bonds, building a sense of community, providing broad exposure for musical artists or as one of the most important economic engines of the music industry, the story of the music festival is inextricably linked with ...

Beretta Dairy
The Berettas were ahead of their time, ceasing the use of chemical fertilizers back in 1953. Their fourth-generation dairy farm has always been pasture-based. Doug Beretta (3rd generation) recently purchased and took over the operation from his father, Bob. Doug and wife Sharon's children enjoy helping out around the farm, and are carrying on the family tradition of participating in 4-H and FFA (Future Farmers of America). To control quality, they grow much of their own feed. As other organic dairy farmers have discovered, Doug observes that keeping cows off concrete, along with organic practices, leads to less stressed livestock that breeds better. They've been 100% certified organic since April 2007.
"Organic farming changes your thinking. It brings you closer to the earth, closer to the cows, and closer to the way farming used to be, back in the day."
– Doug Beretta

When Jim Morrison died at age 27 in 1971, no one could have predicted that the Doors would provide the soundtrack to several generations of rock and roll fans. In four short years, the Doors produced a catalog of enduring albums and indelible hit singles. They rose from obscurity to achieve an unparalleled level of reverence. In honor of the Doors 40th anniversary, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum will present Break on Through: The Lasting Legacy of the Doors. The exhibit opens May 25, 2007.
Formed in Los Angeles in 1966, the Doors made their recorded debut in the midst of the psychedelic groundswell that was rising on the West Coast. Unlike their contemporaries, the Doors often explored the darker realms of blues, jazz, Eastern music and literature. Their breakthrough hit, "Light My Fire," may have appeared to be a simple hippie-esque catchphrase, but a hypnotic rhythm and a sinister vocal propelled it. Through their steadfast vision and the undeniable charisma of Jim Morrison, the Doors practically became a counterpoint to the prevailing counterculture. No other American group of that era simultaneously established and maintained musical credibility and achieved so much popular success.
The exhibit provides a career overview and an examination of the unmatched durability of the Doors. Produced with the full blessing and cooperation of the Doors, artifacts from this exhibit have been provided by Ray Manzarek, John Densmore, Robby Krieger, the estate of Jim Morrison, the Doors Music Co. and several collectors. The exhibit features instruments, rare manuscripts, production notes, audio, video and photography.
"We've been visiting the Rock Hall for three years, about two times per year. Your displays are fabulous and we learn something new each time we're here...It's even allowing us to teach our 9-year-old son about all music...So do we think it's worth a three-and-a-half-hour drive from Dayton, Ohio in the pouring rain? You bet! Rock on." "Wow - This is the music of our lives. This place is awesome - extremely impressive. We grew up on Alan Freed, Bandstand and Cousin Brucie. Keep up the good work - we'll be back."

Okay, I'm bored, and you all know that can only mean two things; #1 Bad art/fics, or #2 Stupid contests.
Well, I'll head in the direction of the latter, because, honestly, I'm not in the mood to do much of anything.
Alright, contest rules, and theme:
Rules: The entry must have the number 3 (or word) in the title.
Must be safe for work.
Must pertain to Gai/Kakashi, as a couple, or as a rivalry.
Each person can submit up to three entries, if so desired.
Entries can be in art form, cosplay form, comic form, or written form
(written entries should be at least 2,000 words, and this is the minimum amount of words, maximum is... I dunno, 30,000... I think I'm the only one that'd write it that long though xD)
Theme: Summer love (or rivalry).
The contest will last from June 03, 2011 to July 20th, 2011
Also, these contests are strictly for fun. No one person has to participate, but it'd be a lot of fun if everyone jumped in .
On another note, I'd love to say WELCOME to all of the new members. So Welcome to the community everyone !
Have fun!

Also, something you seem to be missing, no matter how hard I try and tell you:
Did you forget that a counter needs to be able to switch in? If Azumarill switches in on HJK, it's dead. I'm not questioning that it's a great check and maybe even a decent counter but 'best counter in existence' is a little strong for something that is OHKO'd by an attack that every single Blaziken will use. It's a bit like saying 'Gengar is the best Lucario counter in existence' ... It's obviously a lie because if Gengar switches in on the wrong move he's dead.

|David Plati
Welcome to a notes and comment column in its 13th year, penned by CU Associate Athletic Director David Plati, who is in his 29th year as the Buffaloes' director of sports information
Plati-'Tudes No. 96 ... currently worn by Chidera Uzo-Diribe, the best player to ever don 96 in a CU uniform is All-American Kanavis McGhee (1987-90) ... Hit my 30th anniversary as a full-time CU employee on Jan. 9; didn't remember it until nearly 7 p.m., so I missed out on having someone buy me a post-work libation ... Is it me, or does anyone else seeming get in their inbox "Join My Network On LinkedIn" every freakin' 20 minutes. And you usually don't know them ... And speaking of annoying, anyone else tired of hearing about Joe Theismann's prostate troubles?
|Trivia Questions
The opening four mind teasers:
CU—What anniversary is former Buff Dave Logan celebrating in 2012-13?
Who Am I?—I started out at Southern University in Louisiana as a basketball player. A former Buff spotted me working out on the track and convinced me to attend the University of Colorado. I ran everything from the 100 to the mile, and particularly excelled in the 400. I earned my way into the Olympics in that event, and just missed the bronze medal by less than three-tenths of a second. Who am I?
Music—Can you name a very well-known singer who as a drummer in the CU Marching Band in 1970 and 1971?
Name That Tune—From what song is this lyric passage from: "Cause my bartender, she's from the islands ... Her body's been kissed by the sun ... And coconut replaces the smell of the bar ... And I don't know if it's her or the rum."
|Quick Hits
|Former CU Sports Information GA's Patrick Gleason of the Baltimore Ravens PR and Erich Schubert of the Denver Broncos PR
A great story in the National Basketball Association this year is the arrival of former Buff Chris Copeland ('06); after five years of toiling around Europe, playing on teams in Spain, the Netherlands, Germany and Belgium, he finally got his chance in the NBA. He joined the New York Knicks as a free agent, and is now ironically playing less than 10 miles away from where he was born (Orange, N.J.) ... A big battle between former CU SID grad assistants this weekend: Erich Schubert (Broncos) versus Patrick Gleason (Ravens); the only outcome I predict is that they will spend over $50 combined at Qdoba's ... ESPN's Mike Patrick during the Chik-fil-A Bowl: "I don't think I've ever seen this many true freshman starters than what LSU has out there." Hmmm ... going into the bowl, true freshman had made 31 total starts this year; Colorado led the nation with true frosh making 57 starts; Maryland was next with 39 (those numbers held through the bowl season) ... Anyone catch the Dec. 29 edition of the Boulder Camera? My edition had the front page of the Longmont Times-Call sports section printed with the Camera's second section (usual local stuff). Kinda funny, except when those of us not in the media do such a thing, they ridicule us, bring it up seemingly forever, even attach what they think are funny nicknames to people who made mistakes or failed even while trying to do their best. I'd like to think no one lost their job and it was just one of those things; just wish it was a two-way street more often ... CU Broadcast News alum David Briggs ('99) will be hosting The Crossover, a new show on the NBC Sports Network; the show will air weekdays at 4 p.m. MT and will be a mix of sports and pop culture. His co-host is Michelle Beadle, formerly of ESPN ... One of if not the oldest living CU lettermen, Clyde Gelwick, recently celebrated his 100th birthday this past January 8; a guard from Dolores, Colo., he lettered in football in 1932 and 1934 ... Former Buff reserve punter Brent Schweigert ('85) recently left KNTV (NBC San Francisco) after a long association with the station, including co-hosting a news program with his wife for the last dozen years (his on-air last name was Cannon; now more of you know who I am referring to) ... Patrick Cone, son of late CU linebacker Ray Cone, was a freshman fullback at Stetson this past fall.
|Top 10 CU Sports Moments of 2012
|CU Men's Basketball wins the 2012 Pac-12 Tournament Championship
The end of a calendar year brings the usual top 10 list of this or that, and it's no different here in the editorial department at Plati-'Tudes (okay, that exists just in my head). But here is what I thought were our top 10 most exciting moments of the 2012 calendar year:
- Colorado wins the Pac-12 Men's Basketball Tournament title with a 53-51 win over Arizona
- Emma Coburn and Kipp become just the second pair of active current CU athletes to make a U.S. Olympic team
- Jordan Webb's fourth down run with 9 seconds left rallies CU from 17 down to win 35-34 at Washington State
- Linda Lappe's women's hoopsters defeat No. 8 Louisville, 70-66, and get back into the nation's Top 25
- Men's cross country team claims second straight Pac-12 Championship
- Back to men's basketball: the Buffaloes defeat UNLV in the second round of the NCAA Championships
- Adam Zika wins the giant slalom at the NCAA Skiing Championships
- Shalaya Kipp wins the NCAA Steeplechase title
- And men's basketball a third time: the Buffaloes defeat Murray State to win Charleston Classic
- CU's women's golf team earns first-ever berth in NCAA Championships after fourth place finish in regionals
|Ann Elliott is named CU's first women's lacrosse coach.
And other top CU stories:
- Change at the top in CU football: head coach Jon Embree dismissed at end of 1-11 season, replaced by Mike MacIntyre who led San Jose State to a 10-2 record
- John Wooten selected for induction into the College Football Hall of Fame
- Men's basketball busts into the nation's top 25 for the first time during the non-conference season since 1970

- Women's basketball reaches the Elite 8 of the Women's NIT
- Women's soccer finishes 8-8-2 under first year head coach Danny Sanchez
- Men's golf team get snubbed, likely first team on the outside looking in for the NCAA Championship field
- Women's volleyball starts 11-2; later on, comes back from down 2-0 to defeat Arizona State
|John Wooten
|John Wooten
Inducted as our sixth member into the College Football Hall of Fame on December, John Wooten ('58) enjoyed every minute of the process since he was informed last spring that he would be entering the Hall. While long overdue, he is in good health at the age of 76 and has given this mountain of a man and his families a new set of great memories at this stage of his life. An All-American guard at CU from 1956-58, and our second African-American player at the time, John went on to play 10 seasons in the NFL, nine with Cleveland where he blocked for the great Jim Brown for seven years. We held a private reception for John in New York City on Dec. 3 (at Traffic East on 2nd Avenue, between 52nd and 53rd streets), and among the dozens of visitors were some of the top brass in the National Football League, including Ray Anderson, the league's vice president for (overall) operations, David Coleman, director of officiating, and Ron Hill, the VP for football operations. At the press conference the next day, John made note that most of the players he was being inducted wit he scouted at one point in his long NFL career in player personnel. One of those inductees was former Denver Bronco running back Otis Armstrong – with another Bronco and Hall of Famer in the room – Floyd Little. For this huge Bronco fan growing up, I had one of those rare moments as a fan that once you work in athletics you don't often get to experience much anymore. I had giant posters of both in my room growing up. Floyd told me that during his time as a Bronco, he had 27 different quarterbacks.
For those (few) who keep insisting we ran from the Big 12 to an easier conference in the Pac-12, this should quiet them down a bit: in the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, athletes from Pac-12 schools won or contributed to 45 medals: 19 gold, 14 silver and 12 bronze. If the Pac-12 Conference were a nation and its medals subtracted from their country totals (33 of the 45 were won for the USA), it would have finished fifth in the medal standings behind China (87), Russia (81), the United States (71) and Great Britain (65). Overall, the U.S. led all countries with 104 medals; USC led all colleges with 25 individual medals, with California and Stanford tied for third with 17 (behind Florida). Stanford and USC athletes won the most gold (12), followed by Cal (11) for a 1-2-3 Pac-12 finish in the gold-medal count.
|An Untold Story
|Zach Grossnickle
We have student-athletes, coaches and staff members do nice things all the time in the community, often with little publicity; that's sort of by design, as I took to heart something Bob Kravitz wrote in the Rocky Mountain News back in the early 1990s. Under the heading things he'd like see, he listed, "Athletes visiting a hospital without an accompanying press release."
This came from Cameron Lewis, Zach Grossnickle's mother (who attended college with me, well, back in the Carter/Reagan years ;). Zach, of course, was a punter/kicker for the Buffs and will graduate on time this spring and will forego his senior season. In her own words:
"On Senior Day, you may have noticed we had three people on the field. The third person was Ian Weber, a developmentally disabled young man who Zach met when he volunteered at a Special Olympics type camp run by Tyler Polumbus (another former Buff) when the NFL was locked out a couple years back. Zach is wonderful with kids, and these kids especially. He ran the kicking and punting sessions along with the starting punter for the Kansas City Chiefs, and when a kid would run up and say, miss the ball, he'd still heap on the praise and encouragement about their smooth leg movement and how much they had improved, high-five them, and pump his fist, and so on. The kids ate it up.
"After the camp, there was an autograph session, and the other "coaches" were all NFL players: Seahawks, Jets, Chiefs, Broncos, etc.; Zach was the only guy in college. But these kids have a smaller world view, and they know only two football teams: the Buffs and the Broncos. So Tyler and Zach had all these people getting photos and autographs. The Chiefs' punter was good natured about it, grinning, 'Hey, don't mind me, I just play in the NFL ...'
"One of the moms came over to me and complimented me on what a great kid Zach is, and how much her son had enjoyed the camp. Her son, Ian, is and was a huge Buffs' fan: he was wearing a No. 7 Colorado jersey that day because he also loved Cody Hawkins. The mom said, 'If you ever get a chance that Ian can help by picking up the kicking tee, or being an honorary water boy, whatever, it would mean the world to him.' I said we'd look into it, but it never happened. Right afterward, Zach was benched, so since he wasn't kicking or punting, it seemed all too awkward to get Ian to be the kick-tee returner, and the months went by.
|Zach and his parents await Ian to join them on senior day.
"When Senior Day was approaching, and we realized that Zach's brother Max couldn't come back (he's doing his graduate work in Physics at UC-Riverside), the idea came up that this would be something we controlled, and that Ian could do. I called his mom, Jane, and asked if Ian was interested in standing up for Zach on senior day on the field, and if he could be there at 11:30. She said Ian replied he'd be there at 10 a.m.!
"On Thanksgiving evening, Zach texted me and asked for me to bring some extra Sharpie markers down to the team hotel. He doesn't ask for much, and sometimes when we get an odd request, it really means, 'There's something I need to tell you' or that he there's some problem. But it was only 12 minutes from our home, so we said, 'Heck Sharpie markers, easy request.'
"When we met Zach in the lobby of the Westin, I asked what he needed Sharpies for, and he said since all the guys were hanging out in the hotel, he decided it would be a great time to get a football signed for Ian. He brought two Sharpies, but so many guys had signed the ball, so far, the pens were running out of ink.
"So on Friday, before the last game, Ian became Zach's stand-in brother on the field, and was bouncing off and on the field in joy. When Zach ran out through the other players and handed Ian the signed ball, I thought he would explode with happiness. It was such a big deal for Ian, and such an easy task for us, overall. We had a blast, and Ian's enthusiasm was contagious. (He must come to a lot of practices, because he knew guys by name who all high-fived him.)
"I think it was wonderful that Zach had this whole other thing to think about on Thanksgiving and on Friday, and we all felt fortunate that it worked out the way it did."

Our former coaching staff was severely criticized for running a quarterback sneak on a first down play at Arizona last Nov. 10; but here's what happened. The officials originally spotted the ball short of a first down and told our coaches it was third and less than a yard. They then started the 25-second clock. But after re-spotting the ball, we were awarded a first down; the clock was still ticking and the play, a sneak, had been sent in. An official came over and told our coaches we did indeed pick up the first down, but when asked if they would restart the clock, they could not do it. There were about eight seconds on the clock at the time, not enough time to send in another play; the only options were to either stick with the play called or burn a timeout. The same thing almost happened in the Pac-12 Championship game if you recall. So in this instance, the criticism wasn't warranted for the coaches and should be aimed at the rule book.
While I'm on the subject, coaching changes are never easy; I think many people forget those of us in the department work day-in and day-out with the coaches and many close friendships are developed. That's why it was great to see that Eric Bieniemy and Greg Brown quickly landed new jobs, Bieniemy as the running backs coach for the Kansas City Chiefs and Brown as the new secondary coach for Alabama.
Jon Embree is a good man; there is no doubt about that in my mind. He'll land on his feet, and he's already proclaimed that his love for his alma mater will not waiver. And yes, Bill McCartney was passionate in his defense of Embo, though the dismissal had nothing to do with race, Mac's defense of one of his own was admirable but likely went over the top at times; that's okay, in the end no damage was done. He's still welcome on our campus, and we'll likely see more of him now that his grandson, Derek, has reported for the spring semester (Derek has bulked up to 6-4, 240, and Mike MacIntyre commented to me that he liked what he saw when he met him. Not to mention throws coach Casey Malone, who wants him to throw the discus after spring ball concludes).
The spring game is set for Saturday, April 13, with a Noon starting time. The Pac-12 Network will televise all 12 spring games from around the conference between April 13 and May 3.
|The P-'Tudes Mailbag
Q: Any idea how many ex-Buffs made the NFL playoffs?
A: Colorado has several former players and coaches that made the 2012 NFL playoffs. Players include Justin Bannan (Denver), Mason Crosby and Brad Jones (Green Bay), Tyler Polumbus (Washington), Jimmy Smith (Baltimore) and Nate Solder (New England). Former coaches are Tom Cable (Seattle), Moses Cabrera (New England), Jim Caldwell (Baltimore), Karl Dorrell and Vance Joseph (Houston), Chris Morgan (Washington) and Bert Watts (Denver). And don't forget Matt Russell (the former linebacker is the Broncos director of player personnel) and Jim Ryan (former color analyst for KOA; he's on the Houston staff).
|Things That Make You Go Hmmm...
Ever stop and think: media vote for the pro sports hall of fames. Recently, no one made it into the baseball hall, much to do with perceived use of steroids and performance enhancing drugs. Fine, but why not elect someone not associated with them? Boggles the imagination... but back to the point I wanted to make: media vote in the people in the sports halls, but who votes media into the media halls? The media. (By the way, the CU Athletic Hall of Fame is done by selection committee, comprised solely of letterwinners and current athletic staff members. All nominations come from past letterwinners, so teammates do the bulk of the nominating.)

New football head coach Mike MacIntyre has met his share of celebrities and VIP's in his short tenure as head coach, but none likely as memorable as meeting Ralphie for the first time!
|Website(s) & Links of the 'Tude
If you have never stumbled across this page on Facebook, it was assembled to remember fallen teammates as well as link to stories about CU players from the past. Entitled "Old Buffaloes Never Fade Away," you can find it here:
There was an interesting story in the Wall Street Journal recently on the net worth of college football programs. Colorado came in at No. 32, valued at $202.9 million; that was third in the Pac-12 behind Oregon (roughly $265 mil) and Washington ($260). Texas was first ($762), followed by Michigan ($732), Florida ($600), Notre Dame ($597) and Ohio State ($587). Read it here:
The NCAA recently did an in-depth story on San Jose State, where we hired our new football coach Mike MacIntyre from. It centered around how the Spartans excelled both in academics and on the field; click here for that link.
And StadiumJourney.com was very kind to us in reviewing Folsom Field and the Coors Events Center, which you can find here http://www.stadiumjourney.com/stadiums/folsom-field-s412
and here http://www.stadiumjourney.com/stadiums/coors-event-center-s535.
Late Adds:
This appeared on the ESPN companion site, Grantland.com. A well done, thoroughly researched story on Jo Jo Hunter, who played two years for the Buffaloes back from 1979-81 and has had many ups and downs since:
And a great story on former Buff Chris Copeland here: http://www.nj.com/knicks/index.ssf/2013/01/chris_copeland_newark_native_a.html.
|Congrats Shouts & Sympathies
- How about a shout out to Hale Irwin, who at age 66, shot better than his age for the first time in his career; he wrapped up the 3M Championship in Blaine, Minn., on
Hale Irwin
- Congrats to another Buff linkster, Steve Jones ('81) for earning back his provisional card for the Champions Tour. I saw Steve when I was working the Fiesta Bowl and he said he hopes to play in 18-20 tournaments and finish in the top 30 of the money list so he won't have to go to qualifying again. He of course won the '96 U.S. Open, following in the footsteps of Irwin, who captured it three times (1974, 1979, 1990).
- Sympathy from the entire CU family as former athletic trainer Monte Smith ('53) passed away in December at the age of 82. He was CU's trainer from 1967-73 after having graduated from CU in 1962 with a degree in physical education; he was also a '49 graduate of Englewood High School and lettered in gymnastics while attending CU. Athletes from his day rave how important Monte was to them.
- And the same to family of Bart Roth (football '77), who passed away in his sleep on December 20 in Omaha; a fierce hitting linebacker for Bill Mallory's Buffaloes in the mid-1970s, he earned the nickname "Hit Man." He was 57. Caught this on Facebook from one of Bart's teammates, Chuck McCarter. Words coming from a teammate are often the perfect medicine in times of grief:
"In college I had the privilege to play football with some amazing guys, and we lost a great one two days ago, Bart "Hitman" Roth. Pound for pound, Bart is the toughest person I've ever known. He was fearless! It's times like these that I reflect back to all the thousands of hours that I spent with my Buff Brothers. No matter what race, Black, White, Samoan, Hispanic, we were, and still are, a "Band of Brothers." We lived together, sweated together, bled together, partied together, fought together and today we cry together, all for each other! Each and every one of my Brothers were not only great football players, but great individuals, and we lost a great one in Bart. My deepest sympathies go out to his family, and all of us, "His Brothers." Today, our hearts are saddened, but as always, we will stand "Shoulder to Shoulder." Rest in peace Bart, and thank you for your enthusiasm for life, your leadership, and most of all for you amazing character."
- And two weeks later (Jan. 4), we lost Bryan Stoltenberg ('95), CU's All-American and two-time All-Big 8 center to a suspected blood clot less than month after surviving a near-fatal car crash. He is survived by his wife, Laura, and three sons between the ages of 11 and 16 (a college fund for the boys has been established at Chase Bank in Sugarland). Derek West played on the same offensive line with Stoli for three years; here's what he said:
"Bryan was a dear friend, loyal father, husband and an amazing teammate," West said. "While we mourn the loss of this great man, we're comforted knowing that Bryan is in a better place. I will always remember Bryan's infectious laugh and smile. He had this bigger than life aura about him and this consumed all those around him. He constantly had an upbeat attitude and outlook at everything life threw at him. I will greatly miss my dear friend and cherish all the memories we had on and off the field."
Rashaan Salaam, CU's 1994 Heisman Trophy running back who ran for 2,055 yards, many thanks to Stoltenberg's crushing blocks, recalled how important "Stoli" was to him. "I was the one who won all those awards, but without my offensive line, that never would have happened. I always believed that those awards were honoring all of us, and Stoli being the center was the heart of that great offensive line. They all went on to play in the NFL, that's how good that group is, and to learn that one of them is now gone is just devastating to me, to all of us."
|This Tudes' Number: 71,851
Colorado, in its first seven men's basketball home games this year, has drawn 71,852 fans to the Coors Events Center (an average of 10,264). CU set its season record for average per game just last year (7,804), and in the 35-year history of the Events Center, there were 14 occasions where the Buffs did not exceed 70,000 fans for an entire season. Now in 2008-09, the Buffs averaged 4,637 fans per game, and the 68.3 percent increase to the 7,804 number for 2011-12 led all 344 Division I schools in the nation (St. John's was next at 45 percent). So the Buffs are now at a 32 percent increase over just last year when they set the school mark, and over the last four years, a whopping 122 percent increase.
Runner-Up: Some have said CU was cheap when it hired Jon Embree as head coach, forgetting that he deferred potentially half a million dollars in salary to the pool for his assistants; that pool, in excess of $2.3 million in 2012, ranked 21st in the NCAA. The figure under new coach Mike MacIntyre will be $2.6 million this coming season.
|Trivia Answers
CU—Those who answered his freshman year at CU would be correct, but what I was really looking for was the start of the last true multi-sport career by a Buff. Logan played football and basketball for four seasons. Some of combined football and track, but seldom for more than two seasons; no one has played football and basketball for more than one since "Logan's run" from 1972-76. (No pun intended on the science fiction movie reference!).
Who Am I?—Ambassador David Bolen. CU's first Olympian and its fourth African-American in any sport, he lettered three years in track (1946-48) and was fourth in the 400-meters at the London Olympics in a 47.2 time (Jamaica's Arthur Wint won in 46.2, and the USA's Mal Whitfield won the bronze in 46.9, just ahead of Bolen). He is known as "The Ambassador," bestowed that title he worked hard to earn as then-President Jimmy Carter made him the first black ambassador in U.S. History. Now residing in Scottsdale, Ariz., he recently celebrated his 89th birthday in December. The former Buff who spotted him at Southern? All-American and CU Athletic HOF member Gil Cruter.
Music—The drummer in our marching band was none other than co-founder and lead singer of Earth Wind & Fire, Philip Bailey. The Denver East High School graduate attended Metro State briefly before transferring to CU for two years before his musical career took off.
Name That Tune—From 2009, the former warm-up band for Jimmy Buffett, the Zac Brown Band, and their hit, Toes. It's quite catchy, most like it the first time they hear it; I did. See it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eiL_beZtiQc.

Sweet Event Design Derby Theme Party (20 photos)
Sign In or Register Now
Sweet Event Design for Becky's Fund Charity Fundraiser
Venue- Virginia Gold Cup Races 2012, The Plains VA
Theme- Derby, Equestrian
Color Scheme- Yellow & Black; Yellow, Black and Green
The Gold Cup Races are Virginia's horse derby, bringing out all of Washington DC, Maryland and Virginia finest in their bright dresses, big hats and preppy attire. We were thrilled to work with one of our favorite charities this year, Becky's Fund, a non-profit organization focused on domestic and dating violence awareness and education.
For this years "Investing in Hope" fundraiser we created two candy & dessert tables. A giant horse topiary centerpiece with a Becky's Fund logo saddle cloth was an instant eye catcher for the general admission tent. Yellow and green candy filled jars filled the table. Cookies, donuts, marshmallows and more were piled high. Glassine bags with Becky's logo and website in yellow baskets were placed at each end for guests to fill and take.
The VIP table was decorated with a beautiful bright yellow floral centerpiece. White porcelain horse heads shined at each side and glass apothecary jars filled with yellow candies and desserts gleamed. Cake bites, chocolate truffles, cinnamon roll lollipops and more filled the decadent display. Popcorn treat bags wrapped in yellow and green gingham were piled high in planters at each end of the table.
We filled hundreds of treat packs with lemon candies and business cards for our promotional girls in derby hats and sundresses to pass out to guests. Snack boxes of popcorn, candies, nuts and gum were placed at each VIP table.
The event was a huge success and we were so excited with the pictures from everything we could hardly wait to share!

LinkedList is a general-purpose linked list. It supports enumerators and implements the ICollection interface.It is a true linked list with separate nodes of type LinkedListNode, so insertion and removal are O(1) operations.
Lists that contain reference types perform better if a node and its value are created at the same time. Because the underlying nodes are exposed, it is possible to remove nodes and reinsert them, either in the same list or another list, as an O(1) operation with no allocations on the GC heap.
The list also maintains an internal count so that getting the Count property is an O(1) operation; the count remains consistent if the list is used from a single thread.
The LinkedList class does not support chaining, splitting, cycles, or other features that can leave the list in an inconsistent state. The design favors maintaining the integrity of the list, and in operations on a single thread a list remains consistent. The only multithreaded scenario supported by LinkedList is multithreaded read operations. In other multithreaded scenarios you must provide your own synchronization.
Each node in the LinkedList is of the type LinkedListNode. Because the LinkedList is doubly linked, each node points forward to the Next node and backward to the Previous node. Nodes have links to the list so that invalid operations on the list do not put it in an inconsistent state.LinkedList accepts a null reference as a valid Value for reference types and allows duplicate values.
LinkedList Generic Class represents a doubly linked list.
The following code example demonstrates many features of the LinkedList class.
The example creates an array of strings, then creates and populates a LinkedList of strings by passing the array of strings to the LinkedList constructor.
The code example manipulates the resulting linked list using properties and methods of the LinkedList class, displaying the results between operations.
Code: CSharp
using System;
using System.Text;
using System.Collections.Generic;
public class Example

Elderly Aunt Scent
A little taken aback by the great ratings (the reason I gave this one a shot.) Shortly after I sprayed it, my husband shared, without request, "This smells like an old person's home." I was thinking of my older aunt before he uttered those words so we were of a like mind. Powdery and perfume-y with a hint of musty-ness (for lack of a better term). Giving it a "3" because it is NOT unpleasant; just distinctly 'old.'

Love Goldleaf fragrance
I love the room spray as it lingers and does not bother my husband with his allergies. I have been purchasing Gold Leaf products since they were introduced, thank you, it is my favorite. Wish you would bring back the potpourri.

The best room spray
You can't buy a better room spray than what Thymes has to offer and my very, very favorite is Goldleaf. To smell it is to warm your heart and to smile from ear to ear. I have most of the products in this line and love every one of them.
The greatest
This is my all time favorite. I got a sample of it and fell in love. Prior to smelling this my favorite had always been lavender. Now that is 2nd best
Elegant, sophisticated room spray
This is a soft fragrance with a bold presence. I often find myself awake in the middle of the night after 3 hours of sleep. I spray the room fragrance in the air and find myself falling gently back to sleep - great aromatherapy!

Fullmetal wanted to see it! So I will attempt to recreate the magic.
Along with a description of the generations, I will list the best poster of the generation, as in the best NEW poster of that generation. HERE WE GO!!!
First Generation:
From when the forum was created to April 2005. Nothing happened and it was gay. boooorrriinngggg
Best Poster of the First Generation: TeenageAngst/redcheetah
Second Generation:
April 2005. Marked by me and Dogar joining. The most important generation. TA and RC started the fight but we WON it. I ran out a mod in 10 posts, Mex Devil and Xion joined us in making the forum what it is today, and pichubro happened. First netdrama ever with our CRUSHING VICTORY against Neeherc.
Best Poster of the Second Generation: God/Dogar
Third Generation:
This was a rather uneventful generation. Happened for a month or so during the summer when me and Dogar got inactive. PD really sucked but Xion STEPPED IT UP to carry the place and even became a mod. Yojimbo joined, Eve joined, and chrizz joined. Not much happened.
Best Poster of the Third Generation: Eve
Fourth Generation:
This is what is referred to as the glory days. Started mid-ish Septemeber after I came back from a month long break. The 2nd gen was the most important but this one was surely the best. I became GREAT, kg came back and got good, Devil came into his own and became the elitist HARD BASTARD we know him to be today, Xion got a little power crazy and butted heads with me and Dogar a few times, CA joined and was CA, I started my ridiculous campeign of massive posting which was Easily outdone by Mex and Eve. These days it was very rare Eve would make under 100 posts a day. Fullmetal either joined or became active around this time. Celebi was WREAKING HAVOC. Pikatwo came. pikaschnozz joined. mario joined. Great Purge Happened here. Gr00vy 2 was alive TWICE during this generation. When people say PD is the best forum on the internet, this is the era they're thinking of the back it up.
Best Poster of the Fourth Generation: Fullmetal(honorable mentions to kg and mario)
Fifth Generation:
Sucked. Started after the CA drama. Lots of great old posters became less active and the board was swarmed with shitty newbs. Although the overall activity was dire, bright lights shone through. Devil and Fullmetal's threads, Mario was still active sometimes, kg was still active. The begining wasn't that bad but around Octoberish things started to diminish. Although Azn became great and Kelsh and Walrus joined. Overall, shitty.
Best Poster of the Fifth Generation: The Dead Walrus/Kelsh
Sixth Generation:
When we moved to the new board. How good will it be and what will happen? THAT IS UP FOR YOU TO DECIDE!!!!!!!!
Best poster of the Fifth Generation: WHO KNOWS

Domestic Furnishings
Washboards, armchairs, lamps, and pots and pans may not seem to be museum pieces. But they are invaluable evidence of how most people lived day to day, last week or three centuries ago. The Museum's collections of domestic furnishings comprise more than 40,000 artifacts from American households. Large and small, they include four houses, roughly 800 pieces of furniture, fireplace equipment, spinning wheels, ceramics and glass, family portraits, and much more.
The Arthur and Edna Greenwood Collection contains more than 2,000 objects from New England households from colonial times to mid-1800s. From kitchens of the past, the collections hold some 3,300 artifacts, ranging from refrigerators to spatulas. The lighting devices alone number roughly 3,000 lamps, candleholders, and lanterns.
"Domestic Furnishings - Overview" showing 3 items.
1760 Eve Van Cortlandt's Quilted Counterpane
- Description
- Eve Van Cortlandt's fine white linen quilted counterpane is one of the earliest dated American quilts in existence. The date, "1760" and her initials, "E V C," are embroidered in blue silk cross-stitch on the quilt lining. Quilted with white linen thread, a delicate pattern of flowers, feathery stems, and low open baskets surround a central quatrefoil medallion. The design is set off by a background of quilted parallel lines just one-eighth inch apart.
- Eve was born on May 22, 1736, to Frederick Van Cortlandt and Francena Jay each from families of wealthy and prominent New York landowners. She made her quilt for her dower chest while living in the family home. In 1761, Eve married the Honorable Henry White, a businessman and a member of the King's Council of the Royal Colony of New York. He became president of the New York Chamber of Commerce in 1772 and remained loyal to the King of England during the Revolution.
- When the British evacuated New York in 1783, Henry moved his family to England. Henry White died in London in 1786, and Eve returned to America as a widow, most likely to be near two of her children who lived in New York. Of their five children, two sons were in the British service and remained in London, as did one daughter. Eve died in 1836 at the age of one hundred, having witnessed a century of historic events. Since 1897, the family home in Van Cortlandt Park in the Bronx has been a museum.

Tall Case Clock
- Description
- The earliest domestic clocks in the American colonies were English-made "lantern" clocks, with brass gear trains held between pillars. Along with fully furnished "best" beds, looking glasses, sofas, silver, and case furniture, such clocks were the household objects consistently assigned the highest monetary value in inventories of possessions.
- By the 18th century, the most common style of domestic clock came to look more like a piece of household furniture. A wooden case enclosed the movement, weights, and pendulum. Through a glass window the dial was visible.
- In 1769, Pennsylvania clockmaker and millwright Joseph Ellicott completed this complicated tall case clock. On three separate dials, it tells the time and shows the phases of the moon; depicts on an orrery the motions of the sun, moon, and planets; and plays selected twenty-four musical tunes on the hour.
- The musical dial on the Ellicott clock allows the listener to choose from twelve pairs of tunes. Each pair includes a short tune and a long one. On the hour only the short tune plays, but every third hour, both play. During a tune, automaton figures at the top of the dial appear to tap their feet in time to the music, and a small dog between them jumps up and down.
- Joseph Ellicott moved from the Philadelphia area to Maryland in 1772 and, with his brothers Andrew and John, set up a flour-milling operation in what is now Ellicott City. The clock was a centerpiece in Ellicott family homes for generations.
- Who else owned clocks in early America? Clock owners, like the American colonists themselves, were not a homogeneous group. Where a person lived influenced the probability of owning a timepiece. In 1774, for example, New Englanders and Middle Atlantic colonials were equally likely to own a timepiece. In those regions, roughly 13 or 14 adults out of 100 had a clock in their possessions when they died. Among Southern colonists at that time, only about 6 in 100 had a clock.

- Inscriptions:
- "Better it is to be

rit with the low
ly than to divide
the Spoil with
the proud"
- "Esther Copp her
Sampler made in
the eleventh
year of her age
august AD 1765"
- Background:
- Jonathan Copp was born on June 12, 1694, and married Mrs. Sarah (Dennis) Hobart as his second wife on June 30, 1742, in Stonington, Connecticut. Their daughter Esther was born on October 23, 1754, in New London, Connecticut, and she never married. She died September 21, 1829. (See sampler by Phebe Esther Copp, her grandniece. A tree, rose bush, and one text are the same on both samplers.) Esther's sampler is part of an extensive collection of 18th- and 19th- century household textiles, costume items, furniture, and other pieces belonging to the Copps, a prosperous but frugal Connecticut family. The collection was donated to the United State National Museum in the 1890s by John Brenton Copp, offering the nation the opportunity to preserve and study the everyday possessions of a New England family.

Every 5 minutes 20 numbers are selected.
Match some or all of your numbers to the numbers drawn to win.

Chiz and his guys are leaving it all out on the field in his last game as Auburn's coach. They're currently down only 35-0 a couple minutes before half, and just fumbled it over to Bama.
By the way, I've been seeing people with stocking caps there in the stands.....I just checked weather.com, it's 53 degrees there!! Sack up, folks!!
Good grief. Bama scoring without issue. Mercy rule?
Make that 42-0 now heading into half. Bama has already covered the 30+ point spread.
42-0. lmao
Hey, look at that. Terrible tackling technique. Where else have I seen that before.......
Worst Auburn loss to Alabama is 55-0.
I think Alabama is going to top that.
It's a comedy of errors with that team. They can't tackle worth crap. We should have tried to get a non conference series going with the Chiz at Auburn.
Roll tide!!
Chiz may not ever get invited back to the Nat'l Championship reunions - he's driven that program into the abyss - he should get on the first bus out of town at half.
His wife should read the book of Job, however I really doubt she's big on the Old Testament minus Genesis 1-10.
Bama must want to send a message.
All In 2: The Inside Story of Alabama's Trip to the End Zone.
Kansas Must Be Destroyed
Sic Semper Jayhawks
Chizik will soon be able to add himself to this list if this continues
Actually, come to think of it, he should already be on it for the performance against TAMU earlier this season.

The Commission's mission is to assure that utilities and others use adequate planning and resources for the provision of safe and reliable utility services at reasonable cost.
Originally established to regulate railroad activity, the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission has undergone great change since it was established as the Railroad Commission in the late 1800s. By 1913, the agency was given regulatory responsibility over natural gas, water, private sewer, electric and telephone services, and it was re-named the Public Service Commission. In 1987, the General Assembly changed the name of the agency once again and the PSC became the IURC.
In its current role, the IURC no longer regulates vehicular transportation but does oversee more than 600 utilities that operate in Indiana. The IURC regulates electric, natural gas, telecommunications, steam, water and sewer utilities. These utilities may be investor-owned, municipal, not-for-profit or cooperative utilities or they might operate as water conservancy districts. The IURC does not regulate municipal sewer utilities.
Indiana statutes allow municipal utilities, not-for-profit corporations, co-operative telephone and electric companies to remove themselves from the Commission's jurisdiction by ordinance of the local governing body or a majority vote of the people in the municipality.
The Commission is a fact-finding body that hears evidence in cases filed before it and makes decisions based on the evidence presented in those cases. An advocate of neither the public nor the utilities, the IURC is required by state statute to make decisions that balance the interests of all parties to ensure the utilities provide adequate and reliable service at reasonable prices.
The Commission regulates various aspects of the public utilities' business including the rates, financing, bonding, environmental compliance plans and service territories. The Commission has regulatory oversight concerning construction projects, and acquisition of additional plants and equipment. The Commission has authority to initiate investigations of all utilities' rates and practices.
The IURC receives its authority from Indiana Code Title Eight. Numerous court decisions further define the Commission's function. The IURC also promulgates its "Rules and Regulations Concerning Practice and Procedure" as well as "Rules and Regulations and Standards of Service" to govern each type of utility.
The IURC is overseen by five commissioners who are appointed by the governor. Three of the commissioners, including the chairman, are of the same political party as the governor. The commissioners are appointed to four-year terms.
The IURC has a total professional staff of about 75 people, the majority of which are attorneys, engineers, accountants and economists who review and recommend decisions on cases pending before the IURC. The IURC also has a Consumer Affairs Division that serves as a liaison between utility ratepayers and the utilities.
