BOSTON -- Boston College and Boston University are separated by less than seven kilometres along the Green Line trolley tracks and precious little on the ice. Mike Wallace Jersey . BC won the 2008 NCAA title. BU won in 09. BC won the regular season game at BUs Agganis Arena this season. BU won at BCs Kelley Rink. BU won the "Frozen Fenway" game at the home of the Boston Red Sox. And on Monday night Boston College won the Beanpot championship at the home of the Boston Bruins, scoring four straight times to open a three-goal lead and then holding on to beat BU 4-3. "Even at 4-1, none of us thought the game was finished yet," BC coach Jerry York said. "Weve played BU four times and all of them have been tremendous college hockey games. Two of them have been on big, big stages, and weve split 2-2. Most likely, well play again at some point." That would have to be in the Hockey East tournament, back at the TD Garden, or perhaps the NCAA Frozen Four in the Detroit Lions Ford Field. "Maybe there will be a fifth game, a rubber game, somewhere down the line," BU coach Jack Parker said. York raised the same possibility later. "How about Detroit?" he said with a smile. Tournament MVP John Muse stopped 31 shots to help Boston College (16-8-2) win its 15th Beanpot title. Edmonton native Kieran Millan made 28 saves for BU (11-12-3), the defending Beanpot and NCAA champions. The Beanpot pits the areas four college hockey powers against each other on the first two Mondays of February, and this one had plenty of bragging rights on the line. It featured the last two NCAA champs and the schools that have dominated the Beanpot of late: BC and BU have won 44 of the 58 tournaments. Northeastern, which beat Harvard 4-1 in the consolation game, has not won since 1988. Harvards last victory in was 93. That left the two Commonwealth Avenue neighbours to play in the late game. BU led 1-0 after the first period before BC erupted for three goals in the second, taking a 3-1 lead when freshman Chris Kreider came out of the penalty box and took the puck into the BU zone, faking out defenceman Max Nicastro at the circle and then making another move on the goalie with a backhander into the net. It stayed that way until Barry Almeida beat Millan on a wrist shot on a 2-on-1 with 15:38 left. But David Warsofsky, who scored for BU at the Fenway game, made it 4-2 when he beat Muse on a backhander above the glove with 11 minutes to play. With Millan pulled for an extra skater on a power play -- giving BU a 6-on-4 advantage -- Colby Cohen finished a scramble in front of the net to score with 2:46 left and make it a one-goal game. "I was actually kind of expecting it," Muse said. "A lot of teams go down 4-1 in the third period and theyre done; they give up. Not BU." The Terriers scored twice in the final minute of regulation to erase a two-goal deficit in the NCAA championship game last spring, then beat Miami University in overtime for their fifth national championship. But they couldnt finish the comeback this time -- thanks largely to Muse, who stopped several point-blank shots after BU pulled Millan again with 1:34 left. "You never go into a championship game expecting it to be a cakewalk," said BC forward and Milton, Ont., native Matt Price. "We expected it to be a close game and it was. And it was just as sweet as if it had been any other way." Kevin Shattenkirk scored to give BU a 1-0 lead after one period before BC scored the next four goals. Steven Whitney tied it 61 seconds into the second period after Cam Atkinson capped a scramble for the puck in front of the BU net and made a crossing pass from his knees. Carl Sneep, who had a goal and an assist in the opening round, made it 2-1 with 7:27 to play in the second. "We were trying to hang in there, and when they gave up a goal we felt it slipping away," Parker said. "I thought they might make it 7-1, but we hung in there." Premier David Nelson Jersey . The husky New York Jets coach, who underwent lap-band surgery two months ago, began a contest Monday with defensive tackle Kris Jenkins and offensive tackle Damien Woody to see who can lose the most weight by July 30 -- the day before the team reports for camp in Cortland. Pittsburgh Steelers Brown Jersey . The 24-year-old Montcourt was found collapsed just outside his Paris apartment by his girlfriend overnight on Monday. Ryan Fitzpatrick Jersey . Paszek, 19, will be appearing in her third career WTA Tour final. She was the champion at Portoroz in 2006 and a runner-up at Bali in 2008. The 18-year-old McHale played in her first semifinal at the Tour level. New York Jets Shonn Greene Jersey . The desperate Hurricanes are the ninth seed in the East and are just one point behind the New York Rangers for the conferences eighth and final playoff berth. Carolina is also just two points in back of Buffalo. Plaxico Burress Jersey . Cilic rallied to overcome fifth-seeded Marcos Baghdatis of Cyprus 3-6, 6-2, 6-2 in Saturdays semifinals and is one win away from his third title of the year. Pittsburgh Steelers Ike Taylor Jersey . Nashville GM David Poile has ruled out any chance he could somehow end up as the new general manager of the Minnesota Wild, who let go Doug Risebrough on Thursday. Packers Randall Cobb Jersey . Chad LaRose a fourni un but et deux aides à son retour au jeu - il avait raté les sept derniers matches des siens avant la pause olympique, en raison dune blessure dans le haut du corps. Packers Nelson Jersey . The 30-year-old Hannahan split time least season between triple-A Tacoma and triple-A Pawtucket, where he hit a combined .237 with 17 doubles, nine home runs and 45 RBI in 96 games. The mourning of eight Chinese peacekeepers may for the first time send home the message that their country is a responsible nation. The eight lost their lives in the Haiti earthquake while performing their mission of keeping peace in the Caribbean island nation. Now 138 Chinese peacekeepers, along with 50 members of the Chinese earthquake rescue team, are doing whatever they can to save the lives of Haitians. The high profile funeral attended by top Chinese leaders underscores the importance that Chinese authorities have attached to peacekeeping missions. Thousands of people voluntarily stood at roadside to show their respect for the eight heroes on Tuesday while their hearses were driven to the funeral in Beijing. They knew the eight had sacrificed their lives for world peace and had won glory for the country.

Chinese leaders have reiterated time and again that China is a responsible nation. Rather than bullying small and weak countries as some world powers have done, China is willing to do whatever it can to help other countries with their problems and promote world peace. That is why Chinese leaders have proposed the concept of a harmonious world. This country has made concrete efforts to help build such a world. In the past decade, China has ssent more than 1,500 peacekeepers on United Nations missions. Marques Colston Jersey Womens. For this earthquake in Haiti alone, Chinese peacekeepers started rescue work immediately after the quake. Chinas international rescue team arrived 36 hours after the tremor. Chinese medical team members have treated an average of 500 locals who were injured in the quake on a daily basis. They disinfected the area for refugees and spread pamphlets in French with information on how to prevent infections from various diseases. A Chinese rescue team member said that he and his fellow members would cradle the body of victims with their own two hands out of the rubble - they believed this was the way to show their respect for the dead. The rescue team leader said that they were racing against time to search anywhere to save the lives of survivors. In every earthquake rescue operation anywhere in the world in recent years, Chinese rescue team members can be spotted searching through rubble for survivors or helping victims with their injuries. The same is true with Chinese peacekeepers. They have a notion in their mind that they are not just performing duties on behalf of the United Nations but also contributing to world peace on behalf of Chinese people. As far as the concept of a harmonious world is concerned, humanitarian aid sees no borders and no difference in ethnicities and nationalities. It is in this spirit that Chinese peacekeepers and others on humanitarian missions have devoted themselves to their work. That may be where China has done its bit in concrete ways as a responsible nation. (China Daily 01212010 page8) ' ' '
