to rack up points with an outstanding collection of talent among the skill positions, the Bengals can’t let the offensive line sink.

If Smith switches back outside the Bengals can justify the money they gave Johnson in the offseason by playing him at right guard. Drafted as a center, he wasn’t much worse than Russell Bodine when he had to play, but was also deployed at left guard when Clint Boling was down and fared well. It was interesting that with the season lost in 2016, the Bengals gave Johnson a start in Week 17 instead of Christian Westerman, who they drafted in the fifth round in 2016. He was likely picked as the eventual replacement for Kevin Zeitler, but has yet to see the field.

V. Rev. Dr. Maximos Constas, Senior Research Scholar at Holy Cross, was a featured speaker at a recent International Symposium on the Environment in Seoul, Korea. The symposium, which was attended by more than 400 people, was part of a celebration to mark the fiftieth anniversary of St. Nicholas Cathedral. His All Holiness Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew delivered the keynote address at the symposium and was followed by Fr. Maximos, whose topic was “A Tale of Two Trees: Nature and Human Transformation.” The paper explored St. Maximus the Confessor’s interpretation of the two trees in paradise, the Tree of Knowledge and the Tree of Life, which the Confessor understood to be a symbol of creation.

Fr. Maximos also accompanied His All Holiness
