There is nothing like a NY summer concert.
Nothing.
One of my favorite parts of a concert is checking out what people wear because the artistic nature of a performance tends to bring out the creativity.
So bring an artist like Robyn to Brooklyn and its safe to say the concert style is sure to be eclectic, funky with a dash of quirk. I am patiently waiting for August when her tour hits NY but until then, here’s to hoping for a night of loud prints, amazing music and space suits.
Until then…
YOUTH DAY SATURDAY
New Haven Register (New Haven, CT) September 21, 2007 | Sean Barker By Sean Barker Sports Editor NEW HAVEN — There is often a noticeable difference in players when they return after sitting out a semester because of an injury.
Yale has an eight-semester rule, in which students need to graduate in eight semesters, so when a player needs to sit out a season because of injury, they leave school that semester or at a later date.
They spend four months in the real world. And it’s often an eye- opening experience.
Three players who sat out last season for the Yale football team with injuries have returned this year: safety Nick Solakian, linebacker Lee Driftmier and wide receiver Chris Denny-Brown. All are seniors. in our site how many plays did shakespeare write
“They are more mature. No question. All of these kids that go through this year off, just have a different appreciation for the game, and playing, and the opportunity to play,” said Yale coach Jack Siedlecki, whose Bulldogs open Ivy League play Saturday at 12:30 p.m. at Yale Bowl against Cornell. “They’re young. A lot of young kids take things for granted. When you don’t have it for a year, your appreciation grows.” Denny-Brown, who worked at Merrill Lynch in New Haven last fall, agrees.
“I think when you come into college you really don’t appreciate it as much. I got to take a step back,” said Denny-Brown, who had 32 catches for 366 yards and a touchdown in 2005. “It was an See Yale, C7 eye-opening experience for me, getting to see how different the real world is than being able to play football in college. I’ve come to practice with more excitement and energy than I have for any sport in my life. I think I have realized that it’s not a right, but a privilege to do what we do, and only for a very short period of time. I’m going to make this season as fun as I can possibly make it.” YOUTH DAY SATURDAY An annual tradition dating back more than 60 years returns Saturday with Youth Day.
Highlighting the day will be two youth football games in the Bowl. The first involves New Haven middle schools Troop and Betsy Ross at 9 a.m. The second is a Shoreline Youth League contest between Cheshire and North Branford at 4:30 p.m.
Also included in the festivities are a fair, clinics for preselected youth, youth cheerleaders performing with Yale’s squad on the sidelines, children helping the Yale Precision Marching Band form the Y at halftime and the finals of the New Haven Park and Rec pass-kick competition. see here how many plays did shakespeare write
The 2007 Youth Day Fair currently includes Safe Kids, police departments from West Haven, New Haven and Yale, the New Haven Fire Department, American Medical Response (AMR), CT Trails Council Girl Scouts, Rock Cats Baseball, New Britain Park and Rec (Moonbounce & Seaweed Monster) and the Connecticut State Police Canine Department.
HOLLANDER TO PLAY Senior captain and defensive lineman Brandt Hollander is practicing this week and expected to play Saturday. He missed last week’s opener with a sprained ankle and did not dress.
“We’re going to get something out of him. He will be in the game,” Siedlecki said. “How many plays he will play, we don’t know yet.” Sean Barker can be reached at sbarker@nhregister.com or 789- 5700.
