Rock concerts 'damage art in historic houses' ? Is there any proof? Maybe! Duh!

The study by scientists at the State Hermitage Museum in St Petersburg suggests that concerts by the Rolling Stones, Sir Paul McCartney and others in the adjacent Winter Square may have shaved years off the life of priceless works of art housed there.
The museum's director Mikhail Piotrovsky says it is likely that buildings, books and statues have also been damaged by the concerts, warning that similar institutions across the world should take note.

Remembering Tim Russert

Russert was born in Buffalo, New York to Irish American Catholic parents Elizabeth ("Betty"), a homemaker, and Timothy Joseph "Big Russ" Russert, a sanitation worker and newspaper truck driver,^[2]^{Publish Postan class="cite_braces">[3]} who were married for 30 years and separated in 1976.^[4] He was the second of four children; his sisters are Betty Ann ("B.A."), Kathleen ("Kathy") and Patricia ("Trish").^[4] He received a Jesuit education^[5] from Canisius High School in Buffalo.

He received his B.A. from John Carroll University and an honours Juris Doctor from Cleveland State University Cleveland-Marshall College of Law.^[2] Russert commented on Meet the Press that he went to Woodstock, "in a Buffalo Bills jersey with a case of beer." While in law school, an official from his alma mater, John Carroll University, called Russert to ask if he could book some concerts for the school as he had done while a student. He agreed, but said he would need money because he was running out of money to pay for law school. One concert that Russert booked was headlined by a then-unknown singer, Bruce Springsteen, who charged $2,500 for the concert appearance. Russert told this story to Jay Leno when he was a guest on the The Tonight Show on NBC on June 6, 2006.^[6]
