Skilled engineers too. They rarely trouble themselves with things like required land development process, plan approvals or local permits though.

They never even grease the palms of local politicians either.

Hey, Beavers are builders. Up in remote Northern Alberta is a beaver Dam that is over half a mile long. It was discovered a few years ago from a satelite image, as the area is pretty much unreachable by land.

Read about that. It's North of CASTOR, Alberta. It's all Greek to me... :D

I'll take proud and noble animals for 800 Alex... :)

This may be the biggest series in the history of UND Women's Hockey. Although I anticipate a bigger series this season!!

Maybe the biggest regular-season series to date, but I'd say your WCHA quarter last season versus BSU was the overall biggest. And I agree, no matter where this falls in terms of significance, the visit by the defending champs should be bigger.

Good on the Sioux. Enough of political correctness gone awry. Will the NCAA demand that the "fighting Irish" change their name? Doubtful, and that moniker constitutes a much bigger stereotype IMHO.

Just turned on the TV in Anchorage, Alaska and the UND/Minnesota Women's game is on! It is very exciting to see the women's game covered. Have to admire the fan attendance at UND, wish all the women's teams had the same support.

I know that the job becomes a little easier with the arrival of the Lams, never the less it has been an amazing turn around for this program. Furthermore, the future looks equally as bright considering that their last two recruiting classes are arguably as good as any in the country.

1. No University of North Dakota team may host an NCAA championship round. If a North Dakota team is selected as the lower-seeded team in a championship competition, North Dakota would be designated as the “home” team but would be assigned to play at the higher-seeded institution’s venue.

2. If the university accepts an invitation to participate in any postseason competition, the NCAA policy requires that student-athletes, band, cheerleading, dance and mascot uniforms and paraphernalia not have hostile or abusive racial/ethnic/national original references during the NCAA championship competition.

3. If an invitation is accepted and the university must forfeit competition because it has not adhered to this requirement, the NCAA reserves its right to seek reimbursement for expenses incurred by the Association for travel, per diem or other expenses in connection with the championship.
