She was always great to work with and a terrific resource for everyone in the media. Life is very unfair.
All of us at Sundance Institute are profoundly saddened by the passing of Tammie Rosen, Chief Communications Officer, following a courageous battle with cancer. Tammie was a remarkable leader whose integrity, compassion, and unwavering commitment to our organization will have a lasting impact. Under her stewardship, Sundance Institute’s story was told with heart and authenticity because, quite simply, she embodied the joy and power of our mission. Tammie had an extraordinary ability to connect and inspire; she led with purpose and heart, always guided by an ethic of excellence, empathy, and genuine care for others. Her warmth, generosity, and laugh were infectious, and her keen intelligence and moral character inspired her colleagues not only at Sundance Institute but across the industry. She was one of a kind, and she will be deeply missed and forever remembered. Our hearts are with Tammie’s family and loved ones during this extraordinarily difficult time. - Ebs Burnough, Sundance Institute Board Chair

It’s been 29 years, today, since TWA 800 exploded and crashed into the Atlantic off Long Island, killing 230 people on board. “It’s where they all took their last breaths. They were all looking for a beautiful flight landing in Paris or Rome." newsday.com/long-island/suff…

Surprised to enjoy #SupermanMovie as much as I did (I am really not the superhero movie target audience): it’s fun, smart, well-crafted, even a little bit emotionally affecting. Best one of these in awhile.

The architect of the greatest Cardinals baseball era of my lifetime. Rest in peace.
We join the baseball community in mourning the passing of Walt Jocketty. Our general manager from 1994-2007, Walt helped lead the Cardinals to the 2006 World Series title, two National League pennants, and seven postseason appearances. We extend our condolences to his family and the many friends he made in the game of baseball.

A tour company called New York Helicopter owned and ran the helicopter that crashed into the Hudson this afternoon, its CEO confirmed to @Newsday. “I’m devastated … But you have to remember: It’s a machine. Sometimes machines break,” CEO Michael Roth said.

Overheard in the newsroom: We'll post that Smoot story once we have a good picture of Herbert Hoover.
