Apollo 11 Pilot Michael Collins passed away at 90 years of age. A grateful nation will mourn your passing. May your life be a challenge to a new generation!
RIP Tawney Kitaen, age 59. Talk about the “crazy hot matrix”. She once stabbed ex-husband and former MLB player Chuck Finley in the eye with her spike-heel. She dated OJ Simpson for a while and even he broke up with her citing that she was too crazy for him.
That being said, we do have her looking fantastic in RATT and Whitesnake videos to remember her by. Bachelor Party as well.

She was Robin Crosby's (RATT rhythm guitarist) high school sweetheart. She came out to LA with him and was the Chick on the cover of Out of the Cellar album. It was also her legs on the cover of RATT'S first EP RATT. Cool story is they were in a trashy studio taking the pic and had 4 tame rats to put on her legs and in the photo there are 5 as one came out of the walls to join in.

Quote:Helmut Jahn, the famed German architect who designed the James R. Thompson Center and other iconic buildings, died Saturday afternoon when he was struck by two vehicles while riding his bicycle in suburban Campton Hills.
Jahn, who lived in nearby St. Charles, was riding his bike north on Old Lafox Road near Burlington Road about 3:30 p.m. when he failed to brake at a stop sign, according to a news release from Campton Hills police. Two vehicles traveling in opposite directions on Burlington then struck the 81-year-old.
He was pronounced dead at the scene, police said.
The driver of one of the vehicles was taken to Northwestern Medicine Delnor Hospital in Geneva with injuries that weren’t thought to be life-threatening, police said. The other driver and his passenger weren’t injured.
Jahn was born near Nuremberg, Germany, and moved to Chicago in 1966 as a graduate student. He enrolled at the Illinois Institute of Technology and studied under the modernist pioneer Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, another German architect who designed Chicago’s Federal Plaza and the Seagram Building, among other notable projects.
Jahn’s impact can be seen across the world in designs ranging from the Sony Center in Berlin, Germany, to the Suvarnabhumi Airport in Bangkok, Thailand. His projects in Illinois include the Chicago Police Department’s Area 2 Headquarters in Pullman and the sleek, modern United Airlines Terminal at O’Hare International Airport, which includes a moving walkway famous for its colorful lighting.
Quote:Former Texas Longhorns running back Jim Bertelsen has died at the age of 71. Bertelsen played for Longhorns from 1969-1971 before he was selected by the Los Angeles Rams in the second round of the 1972 NFL Draft.
Bertelsen helped Texas win three Southwest Conference titles and rack up a 30-game winning streak for Texas, one that lasted from the 1968 season through 1970, until they lost the Cotton Bowl to the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
Bertelsen played a critical role for the 1969 Texas team that won the national championship under head coach Darrell Royal, rushing for 740 yards. He then rushed for more than 800 yards the following two seasons, including 1970, when Texas would go on to split a national championship.
For his career, Bertelsen rushed for 2,510 yards, which ranks 14th in program history all-time rushing yards. He also piled up 33 touchdowns over his career. Bertelsen was inducted into the Texas Hall of Honor in 1996.
