1. Man drives armored vehicle and yells at neighbors in Arvada (kosi101.com) — Neighbors on Lamar Drive in Arvada saw a tank-style armored vehicle roll through their cul-de-sac last Friday as cameras filmed a segment tied to HBO's reality series "Neighbors." The stunt, involving a long-running dispute between two residents, drew another neighbor with a rifle and a police investigation, raising questions about permits, safety, and how far TV crews can push neighborhood drama.

Dr. Andrew Stonerock Profile (marshall.edu) — A saxophonist with strong Colorado ties has performed extensively at venues including the Arvada Arts Center, alongside major festivals and orchestras.
