    BRUSH ham with prepared glaze every 15 minutes during the last hour of baking. If glaze starts to thicken too much as it cools, reheat on the stove until it becomes more fluid. Remove ham from oven and discard foil. Let ham rest for 10 minutes.

    Another bias from the Rock Hall voters: they seem to not take artists from the first few years of MTV very seriously. Obviously, there are exceptions for superstars like Michael Jackson, Prince, Madonna and U2. Last year, the Go-Go's seemed to crack that glass ceiling, and Duran Duran should follow. Their impact was huge, and that was an era where MTV and the colorful acts that they promoted hooked a new generation on rock and roll, at a time when radio may not have had a hold on the younger audience (with all due respect). I'd love to see a few others from that era, like Cyndi Lauper, on the ballot in the future; also the original MTV VJs should be inducted as "non-performers." They were absolute icons to a generation.
