NCAA Men's Hockey - Vermont Crushes Yale
USCHO.com News
BRIDGEPORT, Conn. (March 27) — For an NCAA game, the teams were about as disparate as could be.
The second-seeded Yale Bulldogs took the ice riding a four-game winning streak, scoring 15 goals on the way to their first-ever ECAC Hockey Championship. Vermont, on the other hand, had dropped to a No.3 seed, in part because of a three-game losing streak in which its stalwart defense surrendered 14 goals. .....

Columnist Tom Friedman Keynotes F2C: Freedom to Connect Conference
Market Wire
SILVER SPRING, MD--(Marketwire - March 24, 2009) - F2C: Freedom to Connect producer David S. Isenberg today announced that three-time Pulitzer Prize winner and New York Times columnist Thomas L. Friedman has been selected as keynote speaker at F2C: Freedom to Connect. F2C is the conference that connects beltway tech policy wonks with telecom practitioners and infrastructure builders across the United States and Europe. Friedman will speak on "Green Innovation," a topic that amplifies the major themes of F2C: Freedom to Connect. F2C, held here March 30 & 31st, is about building an open, abundant Internet as a central component of a thriving economy and a clean environment. Several F2C speakers will address successes and failures of broadband implementations around the world. F2C will cover the $7.2 billion broadband stimulus package and the $110 billion in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act that also may be used to build broadband connections to the Internet. Several of the networks they have built serve as models for stimulus funding.
Thomas Friedman joined the New York Times in 1981. His two most recent books, "The World is Flat," and "Hot, Flat and Crowded," show how technology can address energy and environment issues and lower many barriers that divide the world's peoples. "Tom has a genius for telling compelling stories about geeky topics," said Isenberg, who has produced F2C for five years. "We're looking to Tom for lessons about how to tell our story effectively."
