Pollsters' Comments About Teams They Ranked
Syracuse: #2. Get a very small measure of revenge against Army, but they allow the Black Knights to come back from 7 down before securing the W. Probably not the second half they wanted to play before UVa hits town. (Apache) Another fast one out of the gates to fading in the stretch. (Baldo) #2) A win is a win, but letting Army back in the game could signal an issue with this team. (Coyote) #4 Looked human vs. Army. Next week Hoos. (hoyaboy) Aveneged last year's playoff loss against Army, but I'm sure the Orangemen would not want to draw them again. (HU34) 2-0 ... hold on to number 1 with charging Black Knights falling short. (jhu7276) Remain at #1. Hung on against a resilient Army squad. They next host the Wahoos. Strap 'em up. (Lax Fidelis) #2. Looked great for a quarter then limped into the finish. Surely hoping not to face USMA again. (maddog9718) #1 Handled Army, cruising to a big first half lead. (OCanada) P33#1- Army gives them fits, going back to '07, no? Even in the Dome. But they win. Can't be complacent with a 7G lead. (Paesan33) Until they lose. (PSU) RR#2. Barely held off Army counteroffensive. (randyrad) Moves down one to #2 - survives against Army in the Dome. (Rasheed) #1 LW 1. Orange were not going to sleep on Cadets this year but then went to sleep at half. (Strannywastheman) Another very close game with Black Knights. (Tecumseh) #1. Not sure what to make of the Army game. The Orange fell asleep after a dominating first period and displayed some chinks in the armor. (VTD)
Virginia: #1. Continue to be my #1 after barely surviving a trip to the Brook without the Brattons. Chance to play the roster against VMI Monday, then we get Friday Night Lights at Syracuse ... can't wait. (Apache) Dodged a huge bullet with OT road win over Stony Brook without the Brattons. (Baldo) #1) Tough win against a good Stony Brook team without the Brattons. (Coyote) #3 Bratts exhale as Steele girders. Orange up next. (hoyaboy) Cavaliers showed their depth by defeating a strong Stony Brook team despite missing the Brattons. First Ghitelman was suspended, now the Brattons. Seems to be a lack of focus in Charlottesville. (HU34) 3-0 ... Bratton-less Cavs win in OT. (jhu7276) Remain at #2. Dodged a bullet at Stony Brook again, barely. Was the Brattons' absence good or bad? And for which team? At Syracuse on Friday evening - as always, that should be a good game for the fan who likes scoring. It sure won't be a Towson at Loyola reprise. (Lax Fidelis) #1. Barely escapes for a short-handed win. (maddog9718) #2 Beat SB at their house w/o the Brattons. I like Stanwick a lot, and he played a great game when it was needed. (OCanada) P33#2- Gets an early signature win. Let's see what it's worth by May. AG makes another late clutch save. (Paesan33) Beat a very good Stony Brook team. (PSU) RR#1. Escape from LI. (randyrad) My new number 1 - takes out a tough Stony Brook at Stony Brook without a 1st and 2nd team AA - Kudos to Starsia for running a tight ship - hope the Brattons think long and hard about the concept of leadership. Why isn't Stanwick on the Tewey shortlist? (Rasheed) #2 LW 2. Pulled it out against an excellent Seawolves team. Just may see them again. (Strannywastheman) Great battle with Stony Brook! (Tecumseh) #3. Three senior leaders benched for violating team rules in consecutive weeks makes one wonder if there isn't an issue of focus in C'ville. Got a tough Top 10 win on the road anyway. (VTD)
Maryland: #4. The true beginning to the Tillman era is a success with a complete smashing of G'town. (Apache) Impressive dismantling of Hoyas at home. (Baldo) #4) High powered dismantling of Georgetown was impressive. (Coyote) #1 Move up 1 on the two wins over Hoyas. (hoyaboy) Big, strong, athletic team. Terrapins have been playing the best lacrosse in the early part of the season so far. (HU34) Testudo moves way up with pasting of G-town ... T for the Till(er)man! (jhu7276) No change, still at #4. Two monster blowouts for the Terps thus far - they can't average 18 GS for the year, right? Next up at Duke, a team looking for a GK very badly and losers of their last two games. I like the Terps. (Lax Fidelis) #4. Convincing win over GU. A top ~15 team played in the first half; a top ~5 team played in the second. (maddog9718) #3 Crushed GT. The best I have seen MD look in quite some time. I can imagine them moving up before the season is over. (OCanada) P33#3- G'town? No problem. The Tooners had an early lead but it matters not. (Paesan33) Wow, not even close. They looked very good. (PSU) RR#3. Impressive start. Did every midfielder score? (randyrad) Number 3 - throttled GT - bu not really sure what that means ... but in person, they have a new found fire - best looking team I've seen in person this year. (Rasheed) #5 LW 6. Impressive demolition of Hoyas. Catalino and Young are as good as Stanwick and Bocklet but don't get the pub. (Strannywastheman) Undressed the Hoyas and looked like headed to #2 in all the polls. (Tecumseh) #2. Looked like the best team in Division I this weekend, running Georgetown off the field. If Holmes can dominate faceoffs, this team will be very tough to beat. Not convinced by the Georgetown defense though, so we'll see. (VTD)
Notre Dame: #3. Penn took some of the luster off their win over Duke. The Irish don't look to be a style-points team anyway, as evidenced by the way they grinded out the Penn State win. A dangerous Drexel team awaits. (Apache) Workmanlike win on the road against Penn State. (Baldo) #5 Drop on the Duke loss to Penn and weak show vs. Lions. (hoyaboy) Fighting Irish defense is outstanding. Kemp has filled in nicely for Rodgers. D might even be better than last year's finalist team. (HU34) Hold PSU to 2 goals ... DEFENSE. (jhu7276) Stays #3. Can't say their style excites me at all, but they are winning and that, ultimately, is the only thing that matters. No team makes the NC$$ field on style points alone. (Lax Fidelis) #3. Solid defense in a win over PSU. (maddog9718) #5 The win over Duke has lost its luster but they should be well over .500 in the regular season this year! (OCanada) P33#4- Duke win losing steam. But don't deny it. ND is a top team. (Paesan33) It was 3-2 game in the 4th. D is very good; O had too many low percentage outside shots ... easy saves. Duke win is no longer impressive. (PSU) RR#4. Why score more than you need? (randyrad) Notre Dame stays at #4. (Rasheed) #3 LW 3. Had trouble scoring against Penn State; D may be the best in D1. (Strannywastheman) Closer than I thought with Penn State but a W. (Tecumseh) #4. Solid defensive victory over PSU. (VTD)
Stony Brook: #8. A tough one-goal home OT loss to Bratton-less UVa. The Seawolves confirmed they are a good team, but they missed their chance to make a statement. (Apache) Heartbreaking OT loss to Hoos. Wolves need to regroup and push on. (Baldo) #7) Stony Brook needed a victory against a Bratton-less UVa team. (Coyote) #3 So close ... again. Establish their cred as a FF team in progress. (hoyaboy) Seawolves proved they are on the cusp of elite team status but can't make the important breakthrough. Their regular season schedule doesn't provide many other opportuinties to prove themselves. (HU34) One-goal loss to UVa no biggie ... dangerous team. (jhu7276) Drop one slot with home-field loss to UVa, now #6. On a day that honored Artful Dodger, the Seawolves come up just short again against the Cavaliers. They will both be dancing late in May. (Lax Fidelis) #5. Tough loss after making a late-game run; out-shot, gb'ed, and FO'd UVa. (maddog9718) #6 When you have the #2 team playing at your house without two AAs, you need to beat them, not take them to OT. They miss their goalie and LSM from 2010, and the D looks suspect to me. (OCanada) P33#6- Falls a spot for loss to #1. They hit one of those shots in OT, they achieve new all-time bests. SB transfers pay off bigtime. (Paesan33) Tough loss; game could have gone either way. (PSU) RR#5. Valiant effort. (randyrad) Down to 10 - couldn't close the deal at home against UVa without the Brattons. (Rasheed) #4 LW 5. Another heartbreaker. Terrific comeback. Appear to be the real deal. Sorry, Terps; can't drop the Seawolves. (Strannywastheman) A major moral victory and still at my #3. (Tecumseh) #6. Second heartbreaking defeat in a row to the Cavs No movement for this team; can hardly drop them for playing UVa to a tie. (VTD)
Hofstra: #5. After two so-so wins (Colgate, Sacred Heart), the Pride make a statement against Princeton that gets them a nice ranking. My concern is that they appear to play to the level of their opponent. (Apache) Tough home win over quality Princeton squad. (Baldo) #7 At-large bid may have been secured in a solid win vs. Tigers. As the weather warms up, so will the Dutch. (hoyaboy) Dutchmen looked very good against Princeton. Defense has been outstanding. Numerous players on offense can contribute. A new player each week takes control, which make the Dutchmen very dangerous. (HU34) 3-0 with big win over Princeton. (jhu7276) Dutchmen jump two spots from #9 last week. They didn't let the Princeton Tigers sneak out of Uniondale with a win this time around. Don't be surprised if this team remains undefeated for a long time this season. Go look at their schedule and pick where they will lose: Drexel in late March or UMass in late April - neither of them are true road games. (Lax Fidelis) #7. Nice win over a rusty Princeton team - goalie play is still a question mark. (maddog9718) #4 Beat a well regarded Princeton team. As the season progresses, the various pieces should mesh even better. (OCanada) P33#5- Defeats a top 10 Princeton team. Moves up a couple of spots. (Paesan33) Passed first real test. (PSU) RR#6. Who's #1 on LI? (randyrad) Hofstra stays at #5. (Rasheed) #6 LW 9. Princeton win was clutch. Is this the year for the Flying Dutchmen? Tierney one of the best young coaches anywhere. (Strannywastheman) Solid win over Princeton. (Tecumseh) #5. Important early season win against a likely tournament team. (VTD)
Cornell: #6. A balanced offensive effort by the Big Red earned them a solid win over Hobart. (Apache) Easy opener in classic series with Hobart. (Baldo) #6) Half way through third period this was an impressive outing against traditional rival Hobart � then the wheels seemed to come off � again! (Coyote) #6 Remain here on the W vs. Bart. Still don't know much about this Red team yet. (hoyaboy) Big Red start the season with a nice win over upstate rival Hobart. Pannell is the early favorite for the Tewaaraton. (HU34) Easy over the Statesmen in opener of 2011 season. (jhu7276) Rise to #5 from #6 due to SBU loss. Big Red jumped Hobart early and rode the big lead to a 5-goal win in their opener. (Lax Fidelis) #7 Put away Hobart. Pannell picked up where he left off. I did not expect 'Bart to score quite as many as they did. (OCanada) P33#7- TCB. The 'nell is legitimate again. Only behind SB because they were literally inches away from defeating UVa; this will be settled in March. (Paesan33) Did what they had to do. (PSU) RR#7. Good start. (randyrad) Cornell steady at #6. (Rasheed) #7 LW 6. Seemed like a routine thump of Bart. Pannell in top form early. (Strannywastheman) Wins the Upstate rivalry over Hobart. (Tecumseh) #7. Beat Hobart but not that convincingly. (VTD)
Johns Hopkins: #10. So far, there appear to no goal issues, and the offense has clicked for 2.5 games. The first true test of whether Hopkins is on the right track is coming up this weekend against Princeton. (Apache) Still no wins against quality opposition. (Baldo) #9) Real schedule starts soon � will they be able to hold this position? (Coyote) After a year hiatus, it looks like the real Blue Jays are back. (HU34) Guess who cracks into the top 10? The 3-0 Baby Jays! ... already showing much more than last year's squad ... big Princeton game this week. (jhu7276) 13. I vowed I wouldn't move Hopkins up if they won their first three games just for doing so - the three opponents are approaching LSotP-land. But losses by other squads that I thought would be better have forced my hand. Now we get to see what the Blue Jays really have - a wounded Tiger team arrives, and they do not want to go home 0-2, only to then host UNC. (Lax Fidelis) #8. Looked good against weak competition. (maddog9718) #9 torn between Mass and JHU for #9. Ties go to the home team. The scoring is varied; team speed, gbs, and defense all improved for probably the youngest ranked team. (OCanada) P33#13- Another substantial jump. Handles Siena by a more than acceptable score. (Paesan33) 3-0 but still have not been tested. (PSU) RR#9. Good 3-0 start. Getting the goals they gotta have from the two young midfielders. (randyrad) Number 9 - Petro looks to have the kids playing with some fire. (Rasheed) #8 LW 8. O doesn't seem to be the problem it was last year. Siena is not that bad - I think. (Strannywastheman) Nothing "insightful" to say here! (Tecumseh) #9. Playing with great poise and teamwork early in the season against middling competition. The first real test comes this week against a wounded bunch of Tigers. (VTD)
Massachusetts: #7. After taking down Ohio State, UMass has two early-season quality wins that get them a top 10 spot in my poll. (Apache) Impressive win at home against Buckeyes. (Baldo) #9 Move into my top 10 with the W over Bucks. (hoyaboy) Off to a great start in 2011. Minutemen have a very balanced team. Getting contributions from all over. UMass has emerged as legitmate contender. (HU34) Also 3-0 ... beating Army and OSU. (jhu7276) +2 to #14. Minutemen remain undefeated, taking out tOSU by two. (Lax Fidelis) #11. Took the wind out of tOSU's sail. (maddog9718) #10 This team could be for real. They have certainly done well so far. (OCanada) P33#8- I liked OSU this year, so UMass getting on the board with wins over Army and OSU gets a top 10 slot in my poll. (Paesan33) Another nice win. (PSU) RR#11. Another good win. (randyrad) UMass Kickass - up to #7 - anyone remember that old shirt? Around the same time as those old 'Chicks Love our Sticks" shirts by Brine. (Rasheed) #10 LW 11. Ohio State tested them more than I thought. A shaky member of the top 10. (Strannywastheman) On a roll over the Buckeyes. In at #7. (Tecumseh) #8. Two solid Top 20 wins. (VTD)
Princeton: #11. A disappointment on LI against Hofstra and little time to figure things out with Hopkins up next. (Apache) Tough home loss to the Dutch, blowing a couple of leads. (Baldo) 8) Loss to Hofstra not surprising, as Hofstra has a strong team. Princeton seems to have kept the high scoring Pride offense somewhat in check but was not able to get many shots on goal. (Coyote) Tigers will be contentders despite the slow start. New players such as Tom Schreiber proved they can play. Forest Sonnenfeldt is going to be a matchup problem - 6'6", 250lbs with skills. (HU34) Seem to have fits vs. Hofstra ... big game against JHU this week. (jhu7276) -2 from #7 last week. Need to snap back from opening loss to play JHU and then the Tar Heels at home. (Lax Fidelis) #10. Sounded a bit rusty in their season oppener against Hofstra, particularly in FO and GBs; strong effort from Fiorito kept this one close. (maddog9718) #8 Lost by 2 to Hofstra at their place. A chance to make a statement. Right now they look to be a top 8 seed for the tourney, but the season is very young. (OCanada) P33#10- Still a good team. Drops, but lost to a top 10 team. (Paesan33) Got beat by a talented Hofstra Team. (PSU) RR#12. Rough start. (randyrad) Number 8. (Rasheed) #9 LW 7. Hofstra not much of an upset. Still should be a top 10 team. (Strannywastheman) Hofstra has the Tigers ##. (Tecumseh) #10. Tough road stretch gets tougher as the Tigers travel to Charles Village. (VTD)
North Carolina: #14. Get a much-needed win over a scrappy Navy squad. Completely unsure what to make of this team. (Apache) Gutty comeback win at home against stubborn Navy. (Baldo) #10 Win vs. unranked Navy, but this team is underperforming and headed in the wrong direction. (hoyaboy) Tar Heels still a question mark. Loss to Ohio State combined with a couple of close wins against average teams doesn't deserve a high ranking. Still not a believer. (HU34) Beats Navy but loses to OSU ... will the real Heels please stand up? (jhu7276) Remain #8. Edging past a young and weak Navy squad doesn't restore any luster for the Heels in my book. (Lax Fidelis) #9. Got their stuff together in the 2nd half against Navy but still a "work in progress." (maddog9718) #15 I would have dropped them out of the top 20 if they lost to Navy. They can still drop out if they cannot beat a ranked team. (OCanada) P33#12- Questioning the defense. Brutal road schedule looms. They can win at home; can they do it on the road? (Paesan33) Squeaked past another non-ranked team. (PSU) RR#8. Good bounceback vs. scrappy Navy. Young guys show promise. (randyrad) Number 11. (Rasheed) #11 LW 13. Navy is either better than I thought or ... (Strannywastheman) Tough time with an unranked Navy team. (Tecumseh) #14. Tough win over Navy. (VTD)
Loyola: #9. Still trying to wrap my mind around a 3-2 score ... it really scares me about the direction of college lacrosse. (Apache) Ugly, but a win against Towson. (Baldo) Greyhounds beat the Tigers 3-2 in 9 innings. Matt Langan had the game winning RBI for Loyola. (HU34) Beat Towson by the baseball score of 3-2, but they did sink Navy and are 2-0. (jhu7276) Remain #12. Greyhounds "race" to a stunning 3-2 victory over Tony's Tigers. From all reports, this game should be banned from anyone ever seeing a video replay. Two one-goal wins for the 'Hounds at Ridley. (Lax Fidelis) #12. Victorious in a 3-2 barn-burner. (maddog9718) #12 I did not see the game but assume TSU played hold the ball. LC was fortunate to score 2 in the 4Q to win the game. (OCanada) P33#11- Beat Navy and Towson; UNC only beat Navy. So I have the hounds in front of UNC. (Paesan33) 2-0 and finding a way to win against two big rivals. (PSU) RR#10. Strange game, but a W's a W. (randyrad) Number 12. (Rasheed) #12 LW 12. Pitchers' duel against Towson. O needs to appear. (Strannywastheman) Looks like a baseball score of the Charm City Rivals! (Tecumseh) #18. Greyhounds and Tigers took turns chasing each other around in circles as cats and dogs are prone to do. (VTD)
Army: #20. Showed their heart against the Orange, as they almost pulled off the improbable again. Tough early season schedule continues with Cornell up next. (Apache) Almost another huge upset in the dome. (Baldo) #12) Nice comeback against Syracuse � Cornell coming up. (Coyote) After a slow start, the Black Knights gave Syracuse all it could handle. Difficult early season schedule for Army. (HU34) Tough loss to Cuse and no relief with C-nell next. (jhu7276) -2 from #15 last poll. The Knights are 1-2, maybe they don't belong here as of now. But they rallied at SU after falling behind big time. Need more data. (Lax Fidelis) #15. Moving up on an impressive finish against SU. (maddog9718) P33#15- This is one of those I'm gonna move you up a spot due to others falling and a close road loss to a great team. (Paesan33) Showed some grit. Fought back but too little too late. (PSU) RR#13. Stunning comeback vs. Syracuse D shows what this team is capable of. (randyrad) Number 20. (Rasheed) #20 LW 20. Impressive comeback for Cadets. Almost stole it from Cuse. (Strannywastheman) Great effort in the Dome. They are for real! (Tecumseh) #16. Valiant comeback against Cuse. I like their chances for an upset against Cornell next weekend. (VTD)
Drexel: #16. Ripped apart Albany. Chance to make a huge statement given their big week ahead - Villanova midweek followed by a trip to Notre Dame. (Apache) Strong performance against Albany. (Baldo) Dragons will be in the mix for the CAA title. CAA is looking like a strong league this year. (HU34) +1 to #13. Dragons pummel poor Scott Marr's Great Danes, who have been far, far away from "great" since the mid-2000s. (Lax Fidelis) #13 Handled Albany. Showing more solid play than some previously higher ranked teams. (OCanada) P33#16- Solid against UVa; doubles up UalbanY. (Paesan33) Doubled up on Albany after hanging with UVa last week. (PSU) RR#17. Good win. (randyrad) Number 18. (Rasheed) #19 LW 18. Solid win over Danes. (Strannywastheman) On a roll with win over Albany. (Tecumseh) #11. After #10, its a big mess. This feels right. Excellent goaltending will keep them in games against anyone, and they always find a way to grit out enough offense in big games. (VTD)
Duke: #15. Life after Crotty and Quinzani on offense is not going so well. (Apache) THUD of the week. No offense means no wins. (Baldo) Blue Devils are in a little more trouble than originally thought. Coach Danowski has his hands full getting this team turned around. (HU34) As Boy George once sang, "I'll tumble for ya ... " and so do the Devils falling victims to Penn and ND with Testudo up next. (jhu7276) Uh-oh. Is this the coach who did so little with the Hofstra program for ~25 years but stumbled into a gold mine of overly-experienced players at DBA last season? At #15, they may be too high, down another 5 spots. (Lax Fidelis) #13. To quote another poster, Duke gets this week's "thud of the week." I do expect this team to find its footing and work its way back in the top 8. (maddog9718) #16 It took ND a half to get in gear against Duke. It took Penn less time, and they held on for a solid win. I did not expect Duke to score only 3. They need to start winning. We knew they would miss their 2010 class, but this is a bad start for a talented team. (OCanada) P33#14- I'm never surprised anymore when these early upsets happen. Everyone knew Penn was bringing in great classes. (Paesan33) Three goals? Is Penn's D that good? Better regroup, as the Terps are up next. (PSU) RR#14. Rebuilding year or usual slow start? Still too soon to know. (randyrad) Number 19. (Rasheed) #13 LW 4. Shocker. Penn is much better. Still, this should not happen. Another slow start or off year? (Strannywastheman) Are they done in Durham? (Tecumseh) #17. THUD #1. (VTD)
Ohio State: #13. Brought to earth by UMass. The win against UNC still garners a nice ranking for the Buckeyes from me. Big 10 lax coming up against Penn State. (Apache) #19) Losing to UMass after beating UNC is not the mark of a disciplined team. (Coyote) Garber Field is a tough place to play. Buckeyes had the opportunity to follow up the UNC win with a quality road win to establish themselves as a top tier team but couldn't get it done. (HU34) 3-1 ... couldn't beat UMass. (jhu7276) #16. Lost its mojo this week. (maddog9718) #11 Lost to Mass, which is not as severe a loss as many might think. (OCanada) P33#9- UNC victory losing steam. Must find a way to win on the road. Have you seen where they will travel to? (Paesan33) Can't get passed UMass. (PSU) RR#19. UNC win still matters. (randyrad) Number 14. (Rasheed) #17 LW 24. Quality loss to UMass, but not sure on the Bucks. Heels win still big, I think. (Strannywastheman) Another very strong effort! (Tecumseh) #13. Loss to UMass nothing to worry about, but it proves they're not ready for the Top 10 yet. (VTD)
Penn: #12. After letting the Dookies off the hook in 2010, this year's Quakers get it done with an eye-opening 7-3 win anchored by freshman Feeney in nets. Couple of trap games against Bucknell and Lafayette coming up. (Apache) Cinderella, time to get fitted for your slippers. (Baldo) #8 Surprise! When you double up any ACC team, you are a contender. (hoyaboy) Quakers shut down the Blue Devil offense. Ivy League looking very strong so far. (HU34) Hey, they beat the defending champs! 1-0 now. (jhu7276) Unranked last week, debuts inside the Top 20 at #16. Quakers take down the defending titleholder, unbelievably holding Duke scoreless in the 1st half. What a win for Mike Murphy and his kids! IL had them at #32 in the pre-season magazine. Will they capitalize on this or fall apart as in previous years? (Lax Fidelis) #19. Great effort in a victory over the Devils. (maddog9718) P33#17- I need to see more before I put them in front of a reeling Duke squad. (Paesan33) Open with a Win over Duke. (PSU) RR#16. This year's surprise team? (randyrad) Number 17. (Rasheed) #16 LW NR. Thought they would be better but not this good, this quick. Impressive shutdown of Duke, who I think is a darn good team. (Strannywastheman) In the Top 20 for crushing Duke! (Tecumseh) #15. Program building win for the Quakers. (VTD)
Denver: #17. A solid win against an improving Vermont squad has Denver in the back part of my poll. (Apache) Bounce back beating Vermont. (jhu7276) Still #11. 1-1 record isn't very exciting but that's life in the second 10. (Lax Fidelis) #18 Beat Vermont to get back in the W side of the ledger. (OCanada) Bounced back with a win. (PSU) Number 13. (Rasheed) #22 LW 17. Dropped Vermont. (Strannywastheman) Back in the win column. (Tecumseh) #12. Got into the win column against Vermont, stays put. (VTD)
Yale: Watch List (21-25) - Almost gave away the game at St. John's, so I am not ready to put them in the top 20 yet. With what should be a couple softies next (Presbyterian, Mercer), they should be 3-0 before facing a real challenge. (Apache) Almost let Johnnies back into things. (Baldo) Beating the Redstorm on the road is a good start but still doesn't reveal much about the Bulldogs. Soft early season schedule. (HU34) #1 to #18. Ivy co-winner from 2010 only edges SJU (NY version) by 2. Have the Redmen improved that much or was it simply game #1 jitters for the Bulldogs? (Lax Fidelis) #14 Beat the Johnnies and moved up as the volatility of results continues. (OCanada) RR#18. Finally playing, won, therefore in my Top 20. (randyrad) Number 16. (Rasheed) #14 LW 14. Started strong but almost handed it back to St. John's. If Gibson is out, offense slows. (Strannywastheman) To close for my liking with St. John's but a W. (Tecumseh) #24. Beat St. John's. (VTD)
Bucknell: #19. Enter my poll after a solid win over Villanova. Will have a chance to really make a statement mid-week against Penn. (Apache) Close win over Villanova. (Baldo) +1 to #19. Edged past a decent Villanova squad. (Lax Fidelis) #19 Beat a Villanova team that had been rated in the top 20. (OCanada) P33#20- Undefeated so far. (Paesan33) 2-0 - We will see what happens with Penn on Tuesday. (PSU) RR#15. Another good win over a good opponent. (randyrad) Number 15. (Rasheed) #25 LW NR. Clipped Nova. Penn game will be good. (Strannywastheman) Very good win over 'Nova. (Tecumseh) #20. Gets the last spot this week. 2-0. (VTD)
Brown: Dismantled Quinnipiac in opener. (Baldo) Took care of buisness against Quinnipiac. Next week at UMass will tell the true story about the Bears. (HU34) Starts out with a win over Q. (jhu7276) Still #21. You don't get any props for mushing Q-pac into child-strength pablum. (Lax Fidelis) #20 Beat Q. (OCanada) P33#21- I'm not sure they'll last here. Not yet, at least. (Paesan33) #15 LW 15. Quinnipiac not much of a test. (Strannywastheman) Lots of scoring! (Tecumseh) #23. Stomped Quinnipiac. (VTD)
Georgetown: Watch List (21-25) - Team Disappointment reached a new low with the beat-down they took from Maryland. There is talent on this team, but it never seems to be developed. (Apache) Ouch ... put down by UMD badly ... what will Urick tell them this week? (jhu7276) Down 4 spots to #22. Simply awful against Maryland; perhaps the worst second half by any team I've seen in 45+ years of watching collegiate lacrosse. This squad has some serious players - what are the Uricks doing down there? Has this turned into a rewind of Moran's final years at Cornell? (Lax Fidelis) #20. Looked solid in the first half but sadly appeared to have given up in the 2nd. (maddog9718) #17 Crushed by Maryland. Goalie play and defense did not look strong in the game. Worrisome because D needs to play well. To be fair they were under press sure the whole game. (OCanada) Did not look good. Need to regroup fast, or it will happen again vs. Syracuse on 3/12. (PSU) RR#21. Troubling 2nd half vs. MD, after promising start. Still, Top 20 talent's there. (randyrad) #18 LW 16. Really could not have gone much worse for Hoyas. Steamrolled by Terps. Many questions, no answers. Again. (Strannywastheman) #19. Where's the defense? (VTD)
Rutgers: Watch List (21-25) - Rutgers doing what they should against a weak early schedule (Wagner, Manhattan, a down UMBC). Unsure yet if they deserve a top 20 spot given the competition played. (Apache) Scarlett Knights make their first appearence in my rankings in a long time. They might prove to be a mirage based on a soft schedule in the early season. (HU34) Scarlet Knights now 3-0! (jhu7276) P33#18- Anyone else notice? 3 and 0, and nobody came close. (Paesan33) 3-0 but have not been tested. (PSU)
Bryant: #18. Grinded out a win against the Stags behind the solid goal play of Love. (Apache) P33#24- Wins two games. (Paesan33) #23 LW 23. Fairfield tested them. (Strannywastheman) #21. 2-0, toss up for the last spot with Bucknell. (VTD)
Delaware: Wins in OT vs. Bell this week. (jhu7276) P33#19- Everyone is ignoring the four wins and looking at the pasting they took from Hopkins. So am I; they fall. (Paesan33) 4-1. (PSU) #25. Talented, but don't play well together. Loved Delaware Stadium. (VTD)
Villanova: Watch List (21-25) - Loss to Bucknell has the Wildcats just on the outside of my poll. Tough midweek game awaits against Drexel. (Apache) #20, down 3 from #17. In-state loss to the Bison drops the Wildcats on the same day their basketball team becomes another mark on the revolver handle of Steve Lavin, bringing the Johnnies back from the dead in NC$$ hoops. (Lax Fidelis) P33#23- Almost every game on the schedule should be a tight one. (Paesan33)
Penn State: Still feeling out new coach, but improved over last year! (jhu7276) Played ND tough, a one-goal game midway through 4th quarter. They need to shoot the ball! Played hard, face-off game was strong, D and goalie looked good, out-ground-balled ND. (PSU) #24 LW 25. Played competitively with a really good ND. O needs to arrive. (Strannywastheman)
Navy: Watch List (21-25) - A telling game against an improving Lehigh squad coming up Tuesday following the tough losses to Loyola and UNC. (Apache) Young but gutsy squad. (Baldo) 1-2 ... cmon Mids. (jhu7276) P33#22- Two close losses on the road to UNC and LC. Some credit due. (Paesan33) Back-to-back tight games. They need to pull one out. (PSU) RR#20. Another close L to a higher ranked team that just slipped away from this promising young team. Gotta win some FOs. (randyrad) #21 LW 19. Played Heels very tough and should be in the mix for Patriot. (Strannywastheman) On to Lehigh after another "Classic" in Chapel Hill. (Tecumseh) #22. Tough loss in Chapel Hill. Would have liked to see the Mids steal that one. (VTD)
Harvard: "The Cause" is 1-0. (jhu7276)
Other Teams Pollsters Considered (and comments, if any)
. Towson: Could only score a safety vs. the Hounds in Johnny U. (jhu7276) Must find a way to win. Tough road ahead with Maryland, Navy, Stony Brook, Delaware, Hofstra, UMBC, UMass, Penn State, Drexel. (PSU)
. Robert Morris: P33#25- Close losses; good talent; some credit. Could've put Towson here. Dropped out GT, no defense to speak of. Need to see more of Yale, Hartford. What's Denver's story? (Paesan33)
. Fairfield:

Rigonomics: Modern HDD Contractor Tools For Drilling Rock
"The rock in Branson was extremely hard," he added. "We did test breaks at various locations through the project and more than half the rock was more than 20,000 psi. In some areas rock was 31,000 psi on the hardness scale. With our equipment, we drill quickly through rock of 5,000 to 6,000 psi. As it gets harder, production is reduced.
"Our goal going in was to achieve a shot a day with the two JT3020s and one every two days with the JT4020, and on most days we were able to meet those goals. Production would have been double that in good conditions."
Three hundred bores were made, ranging in length from 80 to approximately 1,320 feet. The average bore was approximately 330 feet.
"The mechanical system uses much less drilling fluid than mud motors would require," said Libby. "Frac outs were reduced, and we believe there is less downtime with this equipment."

The Verdict on Kansas City's Smoking Ban: Put Out Your Butts, People
Categories: News, Smoking Bans
|Wikimedia Commons
According to a story today in the Kansas City Star, "Enforcement of the Kansas City smoking ordinance plays an important part in protecting the health of our citizens and improving the quality of life in our city," said Assistant City Attorney Lowell Gard.
KC back in April 2008 adopted a smoking ban for bars and restaurants. JC's Sports Bar challenged the ban, which was upheld by a municipal judge and again by the Court of Appeals.
The Kansas City Business Rights Coalition told the Star that it will appeal yesterday's decision to the Missouri Supreme Court.
St. Louis, meanwhile, continues to debate.

-- The times they are a-changin': Eight years ago, Democrats were struggling to sell a decorated Vietnam veteran against a deferment-laden incumbent. Four years ago, a young anti-war senator capitalized on America's war fatigue against a former POW. At the Republican convention in Tampa, foreign policy was an afterthought. It's a surprising departure to see Republicans leave military issues aside -- almost as surprising as it was to see Democrats devote so much time to the progressive social issues that energize their base. -- With a well-received keynote address, Julian Castro thrust himself -- as well as his twin brother, state Rep. Joaquin Castro -- into the national spotlight. But where can the San Antonio Mayor go from here? While some Texas Democrats are already touting the mayor as the party's likely gubernatorial candidate in 2014, Texas remains a solidly red state for the time being. The continued growth of the Hispanic population in the Lone Star State will open things up for Democrats in years to come, but that time hasn't arrived yet, making it difficult for Julian Castro to capitalize off his new-found fame anytime soon. Meanwhile, his brother is poised to emerge as a rising Democratic star in the House. For the moment, the brother who made the introduction on Tuesday night might have a clearer path to a heightened national profile than the keynoter himself. -- Competing strategies in the Massachusetts Senate race were on full display during the Democratic Convention. Sen. Scott Brown, who mostly kept his distance from the Republican Convention in Tampa, gushed about Michelle Obama's convention speech. While Brown played up his independent streak, Warren delivered a fiery address Wednesday night that energized the activists in the arena and made the case against the national GOP. Warren and her allies are looking to nationalize the race and link Brown to Romney and Paul Ryan in the minds of potential crossover voters. -- With fewer than 60 days to go until Election Day, we're about to get a better sense of just how much money is being pumped into the presidential, Senate, and House races. From now until Nov. 6, groups that spend over $10,000 on ads mentioning a candidate for office -- even if those spots are "issue ads" run by non-profit groups -- will have to file reports with the Federal Election Commission detailing their spending. Analysis by the Center for Responsive Politics shows that (reported) outside spending in 2012 has already surpassed the $301.6 million outside groups spent in the last presidential year. But that total doesn't include many millions of dollars of issue ads already expended this year. That curtain will pull back between now and Election Day, and we'll be able to more accurately quantify the torrent of advertising we've seen all year. -- It was a sleepy week for public polling, between the challenges of interviewing over a holiday weekend and the focus on the proceedings here in Charlotte. But expect that to end quickly. Even cash-strapped media outlets are going to be eager to take the pulse of the presidential race following the two parties' conventions. Polling in downballot races is also expected to pick up over the next week (the latest Battle for the Senate chart showed Democrats leading Republicans, 48 to 47, assuming likely independent winners Bernie Sanders and Angus King caucus with the Democrats). With fewer than 60 days until Election Day, it's a sprint to the finish, and there won't be a better place to watch it than The Hotline. -- Advice for anyone who writes or speaks about politics: if it deals with Nazis, drop it. Period. During the past week, three Democratic party officials and one Republican congressman found themselves on the hot seat for making such references. State Democratic Party chairmen John Burton of California and Dick Harpootlian of South Carolina joined Democratic National Convention delegate Pat Lehman of Kansas in comparing Republicans to various Nazi figures. Meanwhile, Rep. Roscoe Bartlett, R-Md., managed to draw a link between federal student loans and the Holocaust (he later apologized). While the pressures of campaign season can force otherwise competent people to say dumb things, it's hard to imagine how anyone thinks using Nazi references will ever end well.

You can search for maps, atlases, gazetteers and related texts in the Integrated Catalogue as a whole, or you can search only the maps file by selecting "Catalogue Subset Search" in the blue bar under the Integrated Catalogue logo, and then choosing "Cartographic Items".
If you choose "Cartographic Items", you have more options for refining your search. However, there are cartographic materials in other departments of the Library and you may not find these if you limit your search to the "Cartographic Items" subset. To do a thorough search, use the Integrated Catalogue option. When searching for maps of a particular place in the Integrated Catalogue, choose the search option "Subject" and add the word maps to the name of the place.
General Searching Tips
Searching under "Any Word" will find your search term in any part of the record. This can often bring up too many results, including items which are not suitable. But it is a good way to start a simple search. More complicated or refined searches can be done by using the "Advanced Search" function on the blue bar, where additional indexes are available under "Search By".
Older catalogue records were not produced to the same standards as records are today. Often the author or cartographer was not listed in the author field of the records for Cartographic items, so it is best to search author names under "Any Word" in the Search By drop down list.
"Word from Author" in the Search By drop down list includes corporate authors (e.g. Ordnance Survey) as well as personal names.
If searching by subject (for example, the name of a country), choose "Subject" at "Search By" rather than "Subject Heading (Library of Congress)" and enter the placename (e.g. France).
Placenames for maps and map series are entered as Subjects in their Anglicised form, although they may appear in the Title in their original language. For example, maps of Florence (Firenze in Italian) in Italy may have the title Firenze but will have the subject Florence.
Sometimes maps of cities and towns in a country are stored together and appear only as a single record, so choose "Subject" and enter the name of the country with towns maps.
If searching for thematic maps, enter the place name and the topic (e.g. geology ) at "Subject".
To find maps from a particular period, select "Publication Year" and enter the dates formatted like this: 1939->1945.
To find maps of London rather than maps published in London , choose "Subject" and enter London.
To find maps published in London, choose "Place of Publication" in an "Advanced Search" and enter London.
By choosing "Advanced Search" on the blue bar, you have more options to search by, most notably by the map's scale. To search by scale, choose "Map Scale" and enter the number to the right of the colon when the scale is presented as a representative fraction with no spaces or punctuation, i.e., to search for 1:25 000 or 1:25,000, enter 25000; to search for 1:1 000 000 or 1:1,000,000, enter 1000000. It is not possible to search on a range of scales.
Maps often come in series and each sheet of a series in not catalogued separately! You may need to consult an index available in the Maps Reading Room to determine which sheet(s) of a series you need. Subject headings for map series are entered under the place that the entire series shows.
To search for shelfmarks, choose "Browse" on the blue bar; choose "Shelfmark" at "Select index to browse"; type in the shelfmark (you can omit any type of punctuation except brackets). If the shelfmark starts with the word "Maps" then it's important to include this.
If you have a long list of results, you can sort it alphabetically by author, title, or date (most recent first). Click on the name of the field you want to sort by at the top of the list (provided the field name is underlined).
Pre-1975 catalogue records which included non-Roman scripts (Cyrillic, Chinese, Japanese, Armenian, etc.) do not appear in the BLIC. These need to be searched manually in the British Library Catalogue of Printed Maps which can be found in the Maps Reading Room. Post-1975 catalogue records for maps in non-Roman scripts appear in the BLIC with their titles transliterated.
Searching the British Library Integrated Catalogue for military mapping
The Archive of UK Military Mapping here referred to is a distinct collection of mapping produced by Great Britain's War Office and subsequent departments dating from 1880 to 1970. The collection is being deposited with the British Library Map Collections as part of an arrangement brokered by the Public Record Office in 2001. It is crucial to remember that the British Library collections include extensive military mapping dating back to the early 16th century (and earlier in the Department of Manuscripts) which is not part of the Archive, and includes War Office mapping received separately which is not duplicated in the Archive. Thus, for comprehensive research, searches should not be limited to the Archive. Shelfmarks for items which are part of the Archive of UK Military Mapping begin Maps MOD followed by alphabetic (series) and numerical entries (i.e., Maps MOD GSGS 3906); standard Map Collections shelfmarks begin Maps followed by numeric or alphnumeric entries (i.e., Maps 26305.(12.) or Maps X.3387.).
On the blue bar click on "Catalogue Subset Search" and then select "Cartographic Items".
If you have the series designation number , provided it is fairly distinct (for instance, not 1 or 100), you can search by entering just the number on the Basic Search screen using "Any Word".
- Example: Searching for 3906 as "Any Word" returns 7 records for various editions of GSGS 3906, including 4 in the Archive of UK Military Mapping and 3 previously received which have standard Map Library pressmarks.
If you want to see all the series we hold with a specific alphabetic designation, enter the designation on the Basic Search screen using "Any Word".
- Example: Searching IDWO as "Any Word" returns 610 records for series designated as IDWO (Intelligence Division, War Office) including those in the Archive and those previously received, and returns records where the designation is given as either IDWO or I.D.W.O.
If you have a specific series alphabetic and numeric designation , you can search the alphabetic and the number on the Basic Search screen using "Any Word".
- Example: Searching IDWO 1724 on the Basic Search screen using "Any Word" returns the single record for our holdings of that series (in this case from the Archive)
If you want a list of specific series which came only as part of the Archive (not previously received), you can search using the designation and the term MOD on the Basic Search screen under "Any Word". MOD always appears in the pressmark of material received in the Archive.
- Example: Searching GSGS MOD on the Basic Search screen using "Any Word" returns 1,967 records which, with one exception, are all the GSGS series that arrived in the Archive (the exception is one record from previous receipts where we untypically used MOD in the pressmark).
If you want a list of all maps of a particular country which came as part of the Archive , you can search the name of the country and the term MOD on the Basic Search screen using "Any Word". Use the modern name of the country as that is how it will be listed in the Subject field.
- Example: Searching France MOD on the Basic Search screen using Any Word returns 239 records for material which arrived in the Archive which show France or have France in the title.
If you want a list of everything that arrived in the Archive, click on "Browse" on the Basic Search screen, then enter "Maps MOD" and choose "Shelfmark" where it says "Select Index to Browse". This type of search takes longer and returns the pressmarks in order 10 at a time. You can advance through the list using the Next Page button. Note that the pressmarks where a number appears directly after MOD will be returned first, followed by pressmarks where a letter appears directly after MOD. Where an opening bracket appears directly after MOD (this is how MoD supplied the data to us and means that the designation in brackets does not appear on the map), this precedes numbers or letters in the listing.
- Example: Browsing Maps MOD on the Browse screen by Shelfmark returns 10 pressmarks which are the beginning of a long list which can be paged through using the Next Page button.
If you want to search for all maps of a particular country during a specific time period, click on "Advanced Search" on the blue bar on the Basic Search screen. In the first line under "Search By", select "Subject" and enter the name of the country; in the second line select Publication Year and enter the date span as XXXX->YYYY. Click Enter . If the system finds any records matching both criteria, it will give the number of records at "Total", and clicking on the number will return the records.
- Example: To find all maps of Spain published between 1930 and 1950, on the Advanced Search screen in the first line under "Search By" choose "Subject" and enter Spain to the right, on the second line choose "Publication Year" and enter 1930->1950 on the right and click Go. The system returns 219 records. CAUTION : These records will be for all the collection, not just military maps.
Searching by scale can be done on the Advanced Search screen by selecting "Map Scale" under "Search By". Please note that only exact scales can be searched at this time, scale ranges do not work. To search on a scale, to the right of "Map Scale", enter the figure which appears to the right of the colon in the representative fraction without spaces or commas.
- Example: To search for 1:50,000 mapping, enter 50000 on the Advanced Search screen under "Search By Map Scale".
Searching for all military maps of a particular country is not straightforward because there is no general information in any record that says it represents a map or map series produced for military purposes or by a military organisation. You can search for maps of a particular country held in the Archive as instructed above; however, the BL holds a great deal of military mapping which did not arrive as part of the Archive, and searching only in the Archive by using the term MOD will miss non-Archive material. You can narrow a search by adding terms to a basic search that are likely to appear in a record for military mapping, such as "War" (for War Office) or "Intelligence" (for Intelligence Division) or "GSGS" (or other series designations) or by the time period of the conflict (see above).

I go here before and after every caps home game and anytime I'm in DC. That means over 50 times a year. I've been everywhere else and this is te place to go

Each time I visit DC I make it a point to eat dinner @ District Chop House. If there is one problem it is the noise level: it is often impossible to have a quiet conversation.

My boyfriend and I ate here the other night. I got the Honey Mustard chicken sandwich. The bun was HUGE, the chicken was dry, i had to ask for extra dressing because I could hardly swallow it due to the dryness. They gave cornbread before the meal which was good. The atmosphere was pretty cool for a Friday night. It looked like there was pool tables upstairs and the bar looked pretty big. I would go here for Hapy Hour but that's about the extent of it.

They start with a basic American-style pancake recipe, but they come stuffed with crisp bacon, sautéed corn, jalapeño peppers, scallions, and—the kicker—pockets of gooey melted cheddar cheese. More

The Grinch and the Whos Versus Pope Benedict and Linus van PeltBy
Dr. Seuss's Grinch has become–with Dickens's Ebeneezer Scrooge, on whom the Grinch seems to be based–an icon of anti-Christmas grouchy selfishness. This despite the fact that both stories are about redemption and change, at the end of which the Grinch and Scrooge are as open-hearted, or even more open-hearted, than the average person. For whatever reason, the names are associated with the non-redeemed state of these characters. Accordingly, calling someone a Grinch is no compliment.
One would therefore hesitate before saying something in defense of the Grinch–I mean the original Grinch, before his transformation. But there is something to be said for him. At least, his complaints about Christmas (as practiced by the dominant culture) have some merit. One of his principal complaints is the "noise"–or, as he puts it, to fill out Dr. Seuss's verse, "all the noise, noise, noise, noise." I thought of this complaint when I recently read something by a man–Pope Benedict–who I think is very far from being a Grinch. Benedict's remarks were made last year on the occasion of the Feast of the Immaculate conception of Mary, but he was addressing the Gospel reading, in which Gabriel appears to Mary, she accepts God's will for her, and Jesus is conceived–thus making the first Christmas possible. In these remarks Benedict observed that this great event occurred in silence, and that spiritual profundity becomes possible in silence:
First of all, we are always struck by and made to reflect on the fact that this moment crucial to humanity's destiny, the moment in which God was made man, is shrouded in deep silence. The encounter between the divine messenger and the Immaculate Virgin takes place completely unnoticed; nobody knows and nobody talks about it. It is an event which, were it to happen in our time, would leave no trace in the newspapers and magazines, because it is a mystery that happens in silence. What is truly great often goes unnoticed and peaceful silence proves more fruitful than the frenetic restlessness characteristic of our cities, but which — by comparison — people were already experiencing in important cities such as Jerusalem at that time; the pressure that makes us unable to stop, to be calm, to listen to the silence in which the Lord enables us to hear his discreet voice.
Of course, the Grinch complains about the noise not because he wants to hear God, but because he does not want to be disturbed in his solitude. The noise he hates is of people–or, to be more precise, the Whos down in Whoville–making merry and enjoying each other's company. Still, there is something about the Whos' celebration that is not right. That is, it is not really Christmas as a Christian holiday. There is no Christ in the Whos' Christmas. And Seuss's story does more than just omit Jesus. It offers a positive statement implying (at least) that we can get along without him: "Christmas time will always be, just so long as we have we." The Whos understand that Christmas is not about receiving material gifts, but they do not understand what it really is about: receiving God incarnate. The lesson of Seuss's story about the Grinch seems to be the sufficiency of human solidarity. The Grinch alone cannot be self-sufficient, cannot be truly happy. But the community of human beings can: all will be well, "so long as we have we."
But the Christian meaning of Christmas is far different. "We" are not self-sufficient, either as individuals, as communities, or even as the human race. The Christmas story is inseparable from the belief that the human race is in deep trouble on its own. It is alienated from God, and it cannot repair the breach through any effort it could undertake. There is nothing any human being could do, nor that all human beings could do together, to save us. It can only be done by the God who is willing to become a man, indeed, to become a baby. But this is a joyful, and not a frightening, message, precisely because this God is willing and has in fact done it.
If we have to choose between the Grinch and the Whos down in Whoville, I suppose we should take the Whos. But we should prefer Charles Schulz's Linus to both. When asked what Christmas is all about, Linus avoids any humanitarian claptrap ("we have we") and goes straight to the Gospel of Luke: "For to you is born this day in the City of David a Savior . . . That's what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown."
7 thoughts on "The Grinch and the Whos Versus Pope Benedict and Linus van Pelt"
We should pray for the soul of Schulz. He identified as a secular humanist later in his life.
While recently discussing the Grinch with my husband he pointed out that although Theodor Geisel was Jewish he revealed some Catholic beliefs. Although he does not mention the birth od Christ he does leave one to wonder what Christmas is all about.
"And the Grinch, with his Grinch-feet ice-cold in the snow
Stood puzzling and puzzling, 'How could it be so?
'It came without ribbons! It came without tags!
'It came without packages, boxes or bags!'
And he puzzled three hours, 'till his puzzler was sore.
Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before!
'Maybe Christmas,' he thought, 'doesn't come from a store.
'Maybe Christmas … perhaps … means a little bit more!'"
He does this again in Horton Hears a Who.
"A person's a person no matter how small". So give hime some cerdit. I do like your emphasis of our complete reliance on God.
[…] of Mary – Matt Fradd Amazing Flash Mob, United States AF Band – Dcn. M. Bickerstaff, ICL™ The Grinch Vs. Pope Benedict &d Linus Van Pelt – Carson Holloway, CV Why You Need a Wish List . . . or Two – Bernard Toutounji, Ignitum Today […]
Yes, Linus! Thank you Charles Schultz, Merry Christ-mas all!
I'm surprised this was put out without someone catching your error! The Immaculate conception is the conception of Mary in the womb of HER mother free from original sin. NOT the conception of Jesus.
I should know better, and I didn't catch it myself…just caught up in the flow of the article! The point made was correct, but reference to the Immaculate Conception is definitely wrong!

Elgar Howarth
|This biographical article needs additional citations for verification. (February 2014)
Elgar Howarth (born 4 November 1935) is an English conductor, composer and trumpeter.
Howarth was born at Cannock, Staffordshire. He was educated in the 1950s at Manchester University and the Royal Manchester College of Music (the predecessor of the Royal Northern College of Music), where his fellow students included the composers Harrison Birtwistle, Alexander Goehr, Peter Maxwell Davies, and the pianist John Ogdon. Together they formed New Music Manchester, a group dedicated to the performance of new music.[1]
He has worked with all leading British orchestras, as well as many orchestras worldwide. He played the opening bars of Tippett's King Priam at its Coventry premiere in 1962, (conducting the whole work years later for English National Opera).[2] He has conducted many operas, and premiered György Ligeti's Le Grand Macabre at the Grand Opera Stockholm in 1978, and four operas by Harrison Birtwistle: The Mask of Orpheus at English National Opera (1986), Yan Tan Tethera for Opera Factory (1986), Gawain at the Royal Opera House in London (1991) and The Second Mrs Kong at Glyndebourne (1994). He was Principal Guest Conductor of Opera North from 1985 to 1988, and Music Advisor to the company from 2002 to 2004.
As a composer and former trumpet player, he writes mainly for brass instruments. Swedish trumpeter Håkan Hardenberger has premiered several of his works on cornet, including his Cornet Concerto, Canto, and Capriccio.
He was brought up in a brass band family and has maintained his interest in the art form. Howarth has made a huge contribution to the modern repertoire of brass band music. Many of his works are recorded, most notably by the Grimethorpe Colliery Band[3] and the Eikanger-Bjørsvik band. He also was one of the trumpeters who performed with The Beatles on the song Magical Mystery Tour.
A number of personal copies of works he has conducted (some including annotations) are catalogued[4] at the University of East Anglia's School of Music.[5]

Re: ** Official Medal of Honor ~Beta~ Thread **
I like the shooting mechanics themselves and I love the maps. This is fine, however the beta proves to be what I'd thought it would be, Basically a BFC2 copy in a different wrapper. Dice has chosen to keep that lunky running style as you sprint and annoying grenade throwing right along with the grenade launcher that doesent have the right arc to it. You never know where that things gonna hit. Like I mentioned previously I love the the shooting mechanics of the guns, greatly improved from BFC2.
I really wish the gaming industry would quit giving us the same crap in a different wrapper.
Here EA had a great chance to revitalize the franchise and jump into the modern war scene like everyone else is doing and DICE is a credit to that endeavor.
Seriously though, lets get innovative and do some unique things. You want a real game that will dethrone COD. Lets take the heavy BFC2 overtones out of it and get crazy with this thing. Man we'd love to have a cover system next to objects, doorways, windows etc like RAINBOW 6 or GEARS of WAR. Right along with blindfire capabilities, grenades that can be thrown like in COD as well as better trajectory with the grenade launchers.
I also hate the lobby and party systems utilized as in BFC2. I would love to be able to hear everyone in the party or the ability to mute at my discretion. None of this 4 people in your squad crap but theres room for more players on the team so you cant communicate when more of your friends join in.
Love the fact vehicles are a part of the game. Hopefully there will be some light assault vehicles as well. Also to be noted, Hopefully you will offer a more varied assortment of game modes, capture the flag for one would be a nice addition to the game.
Kill streaks are very envogue now a days you may wanna look at that as well.
Right now the way this game is right now, I just cant see myself buying a BFC2 replica again.

Voice of the people
America should be land of optimistic
After three score and thirteen years, I'm amazed by the sense of fear which permeates American society. My first encounter with this word was a speech by then President Franklin Roosevelt following the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor which decimated our Pacific fleet. Standing before the Congress of the United States he declared, "We have nothing to fear but fear itself?" Seventy-one years later, his words are as prophetic as ever.
Recently, when I was walking into a local restaurant, a family sat gathered at a table eating. At the end, sitting in a high chair, was a young lad of about 4 or 5, peas in his hair, mashed potatoes on his nose, and spoon waving like a drum major's baton. As I passed he called out loudly, "Hello Buddy!" The sparking happy eyes and grin from ear to ear as he spoke completely changed my sour attitude.
This is how life is meant to be, greeting each day with wonder and enthusiasm. Somewhere between the cradle and the grave, we too often allow this blessing to diminish, and cynicism becomes the primary force in our thinking.
Even with all this doom and gloom, I have never lost my faith in the American people. Our history brightly illustrates the type of individuals which inhabit this great nation. Hardship only makes them stronger, disaster causes them to unite, and tragedy shows a people never too proud to fall on their knees in prayer.
No, the sky is not falling. If we go over the fiscal cliff, we'll dust ourselves off and trudge right along. The economy will improve, and more jobs will come into existence, some will be born and some will die, but that first word in our national name, United States, will make it all possible.

City needs to fix street lights
Last spring, I submitted an online work request to repair the streetlight dangling from wires across Hal Greer from Cabell Huntington Hospital. The work request did generate a response, but the diligence to correct the problem did not persist.
Since then, I have noticed many failed street lights. Some are at the scenes of violent crimes. Others are in places where pedestrians have been killed by traffic. These issues should be corrected.
However, if this is a secret "burned out light bulb" project to save the city energy dollars, then I'm sorry that I brought it up.

When to Visit Dubrovnik
The best time to visit Dubrovnik is September and October, when temperatures aren't stifling hot yet most of the cruise ships have abandoned the port. The water remains warm for these two months, so it's a great time to dip into the sea rather than your savings. The peak season, summer, has arguably the nicest weather with average high temperatures fluttering around 80 degrees Fahrenheit. But the small city struggles to meet the demand of the large visitor influx. Correspondently, prices soar. Prices dive from October through April, but so will the temperatures and the beach appeal.Read More Best Times to Visit Dubrovnik»

Green Smoke Coupon Code Assisting You To Get A New Life
December 12, 2012
Can Green Smoke and their ecigarette products help reduce the developing number of medical issues in cigarette smoking? Do their Green Smoke coupon codes will help their company to draw in people in trying their e cigs and leave their previous addictions? We will go to this matter diligently so make sure that you have your notes and pens prepared.
Most of the people in the United States die due to drinking alcohol, car accidents, AIDS, homicide and illegal drugs. But the real main reasons for deaths in America is actually, smoking cigarettes. It just not affects Americans but also, people across the globe.
US economy actually spends more than 1 hundred billion dollars just for the medical expenses that lead by smoking tobacco. Consequently, results to lack of manpower for production that causes them to lose another 2 hundred billion dollars annually. And this study has been estimated by the CDC.
You can quickly see the huge differences of a tobacco smoker and nonsmoker if we are going to compare them. A smoker has: 4x risk in dying from cancer of the esophagus, 14x higher risk of getting a lung, throat or mouth cancer, 2x the probability of having cancer of the bladder and 2x higher risk of having cardiovascular disease.
As you may see, all of these things are so scary to hear right? But if you are a tobacco user and would like to stop smoking, trying an electric cigarette will be the smartest choice for you to take. Much better if you will choose trusted brands for example Green Smoke and use their Green Smoke discount codes to make better deals on buying electronic cigarettes.

AUSTIN, Texas -- When a Texan buys a concert ticket, is it a license to have a great time or does it become personal property that can be sold or traded?
Texas lawmakers plan to take up the question. They could determine how tickets for concerts, sports or any other major event are sold, resold or even taken away.
Some promoters would like them to work like airline tickets, where the purchaser's ID card serves as an electronic ticket and they are non-transferrable.
Texas lawmakers, though, pride themselves on property rights and free markets, and they are considering a bill that would ban the ticket seller from stopping the resale or transfer of the ticket, limiting the price the ticket holder can charge for it or requiring an ID to use the ticket.
