State champion Scottie Obendorfer (126), county champions Johnny McLaughlin (113) and Ryan Lawrence (132), and county and two-time regional champion Colin McLaughlin (160) are all one match from championship bouts as the Swarmin’ Hornets pursue their second straight and fifth overall tournament title three weeks after earning an unprecedented fifth straight Class 4A-3A state dual meet championship and two earning their 14th county tournament. Still alive in the consolation rounds are junior T.J. Macklin (120), sophomore John Allan Furgeson (138), senior Davey Creegan (145), junior Brendan Parent (152), sophomore Ben Lokos (170) and junior Michael Bradshaw (220). “Saturday’s semifinal round is going to be huge,” said coach John Furgeson, whose Swarmin’ Hornets vanquished Huntingtown of Calvert County and Oakdale in their semifinal and title matches of the state duals, beating the latter for the second time this season. “We have four in the semifinals, with one match against Oakdale at 126, and we have six guys still alive in the wrestle-backs, so we have to keep going well in the wrestle-backs. We also feel that Oakdale’s got some tough match-ups in the semifinals as well.” A three-time county and regional champion, Obendorfer (38-2), a junior, won his first match 3-2 against senior Alimzahn Yakhuzov of North Hagerstown, and his second 13-2 over Bel Air’s Jacob Reed. Obendorfer has a rematch with Oakdale’s Cameron Delucia (36-1), whom he’s already beaten 5-1. On the other side of the 126-pound bracket, fifth-place state finishing senior Ryan Eckenbarger (45-3) of Westminster takes on sophomore county and regional runner-up Jack Connolly (34-5) of Churchill
The Internet was developed as a network between government research laboratories and participating departments of universities. By the late 1980s, a process was set in place towards public, commercial use of the Internet. The remaining restrictions were removed by 1995, 4 years after the introduction of the World Wide Web.[1] In 1989, the first ISPs were established in Australia[2] and the United States. In Brookline, Massachusetts, The World became the first commercial ISP in the US. Its first customer was served in November 1989.[3] On 23 April 2014, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) was reported to be considering a new rule that will permit ISPs to offer content providers a faster track to send content, thus reversing their earlier net neutrality position.[4][5][6] A possible solution to net neutrality concerns may be municipal broadband, according to Professor Susan Crawford, a legal and technology expert at Harvard Law School.[7] On 15 May 2014, the FCC decided to consider two options regarding Internet services: first, permit fast and slow broadband lanes, thereby compromising net neutrality; and second, reclassify broadband as a telecommunication service, thereby preserving net neutrality.[8][9] On 10 November 2014, President Barack Obama recommended that the FCC reclassify broadband Internet service as a telecommunications service in order to preserve net neutrality.[10][11][12] On 16 January 2015, Republicans presented legislation, in the form of a U.S. Congress H.R. discussion draft bill, that makes concessions to net neutrality but prohibits the FCC from accomplishing the goal or enacting any further regulation affecting Internet service providers.[13][14] On 31 January 2015, AP News reported that the FCC will present the notion of applying ("with some caveats") Title II (common carrier) of the Communications Act of 1934 to the internet in a vote expected on 26 February 2015.[15][16][17][18][19] Adoption of this notion would reclassify internet service from one of information to one of the
