In the News (Fri 5 Dec 08)

  
  Allard, Joseph
Allard won competitions in the Montreal area and appears to have placed second in a major contest held in Lewiston, Me, in 1926.
Allard's music has also been played and recorded by many other French-Canadian folk instrumentalists, and his style has been learned by fiddlers elsewhere in Canada, among them Graham Townsend.
Allard was the most important violoneux of the early 20th century and has attained legendary status.

 Allard - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Allards generally featured a large American V8 engine in a small, light British sports car body, giving a high power to weight ratio and foreshadowing the more famous AC Cobra - in fact, Carroll Shelby drove an Allard in the 1950s, and it was doubtless an inspiration.
Allard's new K-3 also did not live up to expectations, though it was a beautiful car, and their Safari Estate, a large Woody station wagon with eight seats, a huge V8 engine and beautiful bodywork, didn't seem to find a market.
Sixties Allards were performance modified British Fords, rather than wholly Allard bodywork, and everything ended in 1966 when Sydney Allard died; on the same night, a fire destroyed the factory and most Allard company records.

 Allard, Émilien
On his return to Canada in 1949, Allard went through a difficult time prior to his appointment in 1955 as the regular carillonneur at St Joseph's Oratory in Montreal - a position he was to hold for 20 years.
As carillonneur and organist, and with the organist Eugène Lapierre, Allard made the LP Carols at the Carillon of Saint Joseph's Oratory (RCA Victor LCP.1024), for which he also wrote the arrangements.
Allard composed some 50 works for carillon and made more than 700 transcriptions.

 GamesIndustry.biz - Opinion: J Allard sets out Microsoft's battle lines
Allard seemingly believes that this can be done with game consoles also - but there are several questions which are raised by this approach, which the comparison with the movie industry does not answer.
Allard's strong belief in the "3DO model" is a reaction to the company's experience with Xbox; unsurprising, since Microsoft throughout its history has been a company which has reacted rather than leading the way, for the most part.
Allard's future vision is compelling, there's no doubt, but it's also highly idealised and parts of it are in desperate need of more detailed explanation; or perhaps of more detailed thought.

Matsuo Allard is a very important figure in the world of haiku writing and he had several of his haiku published.
Since Allard has been writing, though, there have been many different haiku authors to come forward and express their love for and interest in the non-traditional haiku form.
Matsuo Allard is not the only haiku writer to work in the single-line format, however, he was one of the first to really work closely with it.

 ALLARD, RICHARD MICHAEL
It is not clear from the information in public record why she was on the aircraft, although Phyllis Allard, Richard Allard's mother, said that the aircraft was carrying passengers en-route from a hospital and Miss Colburn was a Red Cross worker.

Allard said that she found herself in a cave where she was blindfolded and led into a bare room.

 Andrew E. Busch on Election 2002 & Colorado on National Review Online
Allard is something of an unsung conservative hero in the Senate, where he has been a consistent vote for limited government, a strong defense, and social conservatism.
Allard pointed to his vote for reforms and to Strickland's ties to Global Crossing; a recent poll showed Allard holding a 39-33 lead on who best could deal with corporate corruption.
The Post, which ran a "profile" piece of Allard that was so slanted that many readers mistook it for an editorial, also came out for Strickland on their real editorial page, complaining that Allard voted with Republicans 98 percent of the time.

 Haiku Writer Matsuo Allard
He accomplished much in the world of haiku but, undoubtedly, Matsuo Allard’s most important accomplishment in the world of haiku would be his exploration into the importance of the one-line haiku.
Allard developed an entire scene for the reader to imagine in his mind and Allard did that while using only one line of poetry.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Paul Allard
The main idea of M. Allard's "History of the Persecutions" is that the Christians were unjustly treated by the Roman authorities.
He will not admit that there was any incompatibility between the spread of Christianity and the permanence of the Roman Empire, though the acceptance of Christianity by the people necessarily implied the final eradication of the old Roman cults and superstitions.
The causes of the persecutions he finds in the blind hatred of the Roman authorities against this "third race", in fanaticism, popular fury, or, as in the case of Maximus and Decius, very largely in private spleen.
