Robotics at RIT: Student team develops hull-cleaning prototype
Imagine RIT, the Rochester Institute of Technology’s annual innovation event, provides a glimpse into the academic pillar of tech ecosystems. Robotics was among the themes in the 2026 edition, held April 25, with around 30 exhibits explicitly focusing on robots or adjacent areas such as automated machinery. Among the examples: the Underwater Non-Destructive Evaluation Robot (UNDER), a student-built prototype stemming from the Multidisciplinary Senior Design (MSD) program.
Mike Denslow Steps Down as H1 Unlimited Chairman

He confirmed that his decision is unrelated to any individuals, board decisions, or matters concerning the organisation.

Here comes Thundercat: Fleet Foxes, Andrew Bird headline this weekend's Outside Festival
When the inaugural Outside Festival 2024 was announced, cultural enthusiasts might not have paid much attention to what essentially amounts to a massive business summit promoting the outdoor industry at Denver Civic Center Park. But music and film lovers, take note: This weekend is for you, too. Saturday’s mainstage music headliner is the Grammy-winning Thundercat. Sunday’s top billing is Andrew Bird and Fleet Foxes, a combo that could easily sell out Red Rocks on their own.
China's race to dominate deep seabed minerals
OPINION: The Washington Post recently published a front-page story as to how Xi Jinping’s China is seeking to dominate the mineral resources of the deep seabed. These resources of copper, nickel, cobalt, manganese and rare earth minerals are the most important remaining strategic minerals on Earth.

Biden's Tough Guy Talk on US Corporations Cozying Up to China Is Just That...Talk
Pictured are Chinese President Xi Jinping and American President Joe Biden. (Photo credit: Tim Rue/Corbis via Getty Images) The Biden Administration knows how to talk the talk on China, but it certainly doesn’t know how to walk the walk. For proof of the administration’s tough talk, look no further than when reporters recently asked the White House about SpaceX and Tesla CEO Elon Musk opening a showroom in China’s Xinjiang region.
Surge hits arts community in wallet - and in heart
The rapid rise in COVID-19 positivity over the past week is knocking the flattened performing-arts industry right back to the canvas before it even had a fighting chance to get back on its knees. But the emotional impact might turn out to be even worse than the economic impact, Arvada Center CEO Philip Sneed said today.
Surge hits arts community in wallet - and in heart
The rapid rise in COVID-19 positivity over the past week is knocking the flattened performing-arts industry right back to the canvas before it even had a fighting chance to get back on its knees. But the emotional impact might turn out to be even worse than the economic impact, Arvada Center CEO Philip Sneed said today.
Golden to get first-ever performing arts center
GOLDEN – Miners Alley Playhouse, which has operated in the heart of downtown Golden since 2003, has entered into a contract to purchase the nearby shuttered Meyer Hardware store for $4.95 million and turn it into Golden's first-ever performing arts center. The iconic store, which closed in September after 48 years at 1103 Arapahoe St., takes up 15,000 square feet of prime real estate that was being eyed by residential developers.
Syndicated column: It’s a sign
Before the realization of Eisenhower’s dream of The Interstate Highway System, America traveled the back roads. State highways, county roads and main streets were the way to get where you were going. And during the formative years of many of today’s Americans, trips and roadways were lined with cleverly-styled and memorable advertising.
Overtaxed corporations will fire workers, not hire them | John Moore
This opinion column was submitted by John Moore, a small business owner and a former member of the Nevada State Assembly. America's economy is finally humming again. Employers created 943,000 jobs in July, the biggest bump in 11 months. And the coming months will likely see even more hirings and business openings — especially since Republicans and Democrats in the Senate just passed a bipartisan deal to invest $1 trillion into our nation's aging infrastructure.
Vaccine Certificates—A Price Worth Paying for Freedom | Think Global Health
People who refuse to be vaccinated pose a risk not just to themselves and their immediate friends and families, they compromise America's return to normalcy. The more vaccine-preventable infections occur, the longer the COVID-19 pandemic will drag on and the greater economic and social damage America will suffer. One way to increase vaccine uptake is to provide privileges to the vaccinated that are not available to vaccine refusers or those who are vaccine hesitant.
What to Know When Applying for the Restaurant Revitalization Fund
The Restaurant Revitalization Funding (RRF) program, established pursuant to the American Rescue Plan Act signed into law March 11, provides eligible businesses with the opportunity to recoup a portion of their pandemic-related revenue losses.

Then, applications may be submitted starting May 3 at noon.
New film: Does it matter that 'News Matters'?
NEW LOCAL DOC DRAWS DIRECT LINE FROM MEDIA’S DEMISE TO CAPITOL SIEGE Brian Malone’s ‘News Matters’ addresses crisis of misinformation Tuesday and Thursday on Rocky Mountain PBS By John Moore Senior Arts Journalist Brian Malone‘s documentary “News Matters” is not so much a love letter to journalism as an elegy. It begins pretty much at the end of the daily newspaper’s essential, 150-year place in the lives of everyday Americans.
In a twist, COVID-19 creates a few arts jobs
COVID wiped out as many as 60,000 Colorado arts jobs in the first four months of the pandemic, according to research by the University of Colorado. But now that theater companies are finally getting back to performing before live audiences, it turns out the virus is creating a few arts jobs as well. There is a new job title called a “COVID Compliance Officer,” and it is now a required position at most of Colorado’s largest theater companies.
'Mayor Mike' and the art of politics
Mike Waid, or “Mayor Mike,” as he was known for eight years in Parker, is a unique politician. He’s a conservative maverick who often performs in musicals like “The Full Monty” at the PACE Center, and in the town’s annual holiday ballet. Why? “Because my sons love ballet,” he says.
Arts world restart could be a golden opportunity
It’s hard to truly wrap your head around all we’ve lost in the past year, even if you just lived through it. A year in Colorado without a major concert at Red Rocks. Not a single touring Broadway production. Hundreds of creative artists already living on the financial edge to keep the cultural blood of the city pumping, forced to find alternative income sources while an $877.8 billion annual industry languishes on a kind of interminable bypass. It’s all still just so unthinkably surreal.

A look into the Crystal Ball
Will indoor theatre be back? Will audiences have to be vaccinated? How might one little cable change your life? Some of your burning questions answered. By John Moore, Senior Arts Journalist If we have learned anything from 2020, it’s that trying to predict what might happen in 2021 is a fool’s errand. But perhaps it’s not too terribly bold to suggest that 2021 will be the year of the HDMI cable.
2020 True West Awards: Spirit of Giving
By John Moore, Senior Arts Journalist Candlelight Dinner Playhouse drew both cheers and some concern in June when it became the first theatre company in Colorado to return to live indoor theatre productions since the COVID shutdown began in March. But as it was coaxing smaller and socially distanced audiences back to state’s largest dinner theatre, it also was bringing employment back to dozens of sidelined cast and crew.
John Moore: Let's put the thanks back in Thanksgiving
Most of us celebrate Thanksgiving without a second thought. That’s not how it was intended. Contrary to what many say, America was founded on religious principles. Thanksgiving is proof of that. Those who fled England to come here in the early 1600s did so for religious reasons. The first recognized Thanksgiving was a feast they shared with Native Americans to honor the Creator.
Moore: The Norm
For someone named Norm, he was anything but. Norman Rockwell was my favorite artist even before I had any idea who he was. From a young age, I recognized his work as easily as I knew a sparrow when I saw one. The phrase, “an American treasure,” has been used to the point of dilution, but if the phrase was ever applicable, it was absolutely the right label for Norman Rockwell. He was and still is, an American treasure.

COVER STORY: STATE OF THE ARTS | It could take government action to revive performing arts
Fraught. Fragile. Dire. Endangered. Grim. Those are some of the words local leaders are using to characterize the present state of the arts in Colorado. Signs of the arts apocalypse are everywhere: Foot-high weeds growing out of the abandoned stone rows of the Mary Rippon Amphitheatre, home to the Colorado Shakespeare Festival in Boulder.
Post-COVID-19: Emerging Healthcare Trends
by: John L. Moore, Board Certified Health Law Attorney, Williams Parker Telework How long have we heard that telemedicine is the wave of the future? For at least a decade, the biggest impediments to the general acceptance of telemedicine have been widespread consumer acceptance, widespread usage of technological platforms, privacy concerns, and payment rate disincentives. Fear can be an amazing motivator.
Donald Trump: Immigration
Donald Trump promised a severe and hard-line immigration policy throughout his campaign—he launched his bid for office by stereotyping immigrants from Latin America as rapists and murderers—and to the delight of his base and the horror of human rights activists, he delivered.
In Texas, local and state officials battle over stay-at-home order
Judge Richard Cortez of Hidalgo County, Texas, has found himself at the center of controversy over his stay-at-home orders. He issued the first one back in March. “I received a lot of criticism for it because some people lost their jobs. Some people couldn’t go to work, some businesses couldn’t open,” Cortez said. But he said the first lockdown worked, limiting COVID-19 hospitalizations and deaths to just a handful. Then in late April, Gov.

Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp has decided to lift many of the state’s remaining restrictions on stores and restaurants, even as Georgia’s coronavirus cases and hospitalizations continue to climb. Meanwhile, other states are seeing a jump in cases, including Arizona, Texas, Florida and California. A month ago, I talked to folks around the country about whether they were willing to go back to stores and restaurants as they reopened. I checked back in to see how things have changed.

What will happen when coronavirus eviction bans expire?
Back in March, as the unemployment rate started skyrocketing, states started putting eviction moratoriums in place to keep people from becoming homeless in the midst of a global pandemic.

Already, more than a dozen states, including South Carolina, Virginia, Texas and Wisconsin, have allowed eviction proceedings to resume.

Trump’s Immigration Suspension Doesn’t Prevent Unemployment or COVID-19 Spread
Late on the evening of April 20, President Trump tweeted that he was temporarily suspending immigration to the United States. For justification he cited what he called “the attack from the Invisible Enemy” — that is, COVID-19 — and “the need to protect the jobs of our GREAT American Citizens.” Government officials had to scramble to make sense of Trump’s tweet, but by April 22, the White House staff had tacked together a presidential proclamation for Trump to sign.

Do parents still pay when daycare is closed for weeks, or months, because of COVID-19?
Lauren Gard posed the question to her friends on Facebook soon after her son’s daycare closed because of coronavirus. Would they keep paying for services – especially daycare, or preschool – they wouldn’t be able to use for the foreseeable future? It’s a question a lot of parents with young kids are asking themselves and each other right now. Do they have an obligation – legally, but also ethically – to keep paying for daycare when it’s closed?
