An acre in Middlesex proverb

 An acre in Middlesex is better than a principality in Utopia
  Lord Thomas Babington Macaulay

 In a utopia you want to win matches by several goals and by playing a wonderful brand of football. But that's utopia.

 The schedule says we have to play Burlington first, and there's nothing you can do about that. They are the defending Middlesex League champs, with a great program and great players and coaches, and I think this game will have great implications on how the Middlesex League turns out.

 It's a disenchantment with two utopias: with the left-wing utopia of peace and harmony, and with the right-wing utopia of greater Israel by blood and fire.

 I shall speak of how melancholy and utopia preclude one another. How they fertilize one another... of the revulsion that follows one insight and precedes the next... of superabundance and surfeit. Of stasis in progress. And of myself, for whom melancholy and utopia are heads and tails of the same coin.
  Gunter Grass

 Perhaps the greatest utopia would be if we could all realize that no utopia is possible; no place to run, no place to hide, just take care of business here and now.

 Being a scientist, I don't want to get everybody excited and say this is all wonderful. But following two small plantings on less than half an acre, this spring we'll find a 40-acre piece and see what happens.

 It can range from a few cents per acre up to $5.60 per acre of land that has these conservation practices on it.

 I was selling land in Scotland for over £2,000 an acre and buying it in Estonia for £25 an acre.

 Property adjacent to one-acre lots should be zoned one-acre.

 We also go throughout the area and plant small stands of milo that they can feed on as they scatter. There's a lot of work involved in doing that. It's 200 plots (each about a half-acre to an acre) spread all over this place.

 Let's remember this potential drilling area is only a 2,000-acre site inside a 1.5 million-acre coastal plain. You can balance the needs of conservation and exploration - they're not mutually exclusive.
