14,,Well, Q9 may contribute to a guess.

16..Home of Crime & Punishment.

25..A slight adjustment needed in Pinot/VTC offering.
 
14..VAUC follows the hint--A pot farm, of all things. Frank is still giddy.

16..VAUC knows literature well enough to pick Russia.

17..Pauline Kael, claim rbny & zorro.

It took awhile, but Pinot provides YOU RAISE ME UP. It's also a Celtic Women standard.

25..The imaginative frank with aviary; the imaginative Best with bird cage.

So, I only find you lacking twice. That's an A-.
 
An addendum to #24. On August 19th of this year, the USS Constitution set sail for the first time since 1997. The exercise commemorated the 200th anniversary of Constitution's victory over Guerriere.
