The Beekmantown crowd breathed a sigh of relief after Keegan Ryan pulled down a rebound and Justin Stevens connected on a free throw to end Peru's comeback attempt.
The Eagles captured their first Section VII Class B title since 1996-97 as they held off the Indians, 59-54, Saturday at the Plattsburgh State Field House.
High School Sports Magazine |
Beekmantown will take on Section II's Watervliet Wednesday at 7:45 p.m. at the Plattsburgh State Field House in the regional semifinals.
"I feel like this is a long time coming," Eagles coach Ryan Converse said. "I feel really good for the kids.
"The kids have worked really hard and they are a great group. I really wanted this for those guys."
Beekmantown had built a 49-36 lead after three quarter before Peru's Hunter Bruno began to take over.
Bruno did all that he could, hitting one unbelievable shot after another to pull the Indians within one point.
"He hit some unbelievable shots," Converse said. "They weren't open looks; all of those shots were contested. He was in the zone and pulled them back into the game."
After Greg Manney hit a pair of free throws to give the Eagles a three-point lead, Bruno tried to complete the comeback with a 3-pointer.
The shot hit the rim, but rattle in and out and Ryan pulled down the rebound. Free throws from Stevens and Manney would seal the deal in the final seconds.
"This feels good," Ryan said. "We have been working towards this for a long time. Everyone contributed (Saturday) and it was a great team win.
"We had the lead when Hunter really stepped up for them, but we were able to hold on."
Beekmantown was able to open up a 19-8 lead after the first quarter, thanks in large part to the outside shooting of Manney.
The junior guard drained three 3-pointers in the first quarter, while Ryan chipped in with eight points on the inside.
"We are at our best when we have balance," Converse said. "Keegan's consistent, but when guys step up it creates balance and we are so much harder to stop.
"It was big for us to get off to such a good start."
The Indians would cut into the lead slightly in the second quarter, but the Eagles maintained the lead at the half, 31-21.
Beekmantown, though, would push its lead to 13 at the end of the third quarter as Ryan finished the quarter strong.
Through three he had accumulated 25 of his game-high 27 points.
The fourth quarter, however, would belong to Peru.
Conor Casey opened the quarter with back-to-back 3-pointers to give the Indians life. Bruno then did his best to put Peru on his shoulders, but the comeback bid would fall just short.
"(Bruno) hit about six jumpers that were huge," Indians coach John Clemons said. "We had a set play the last couple of possessions and we gave him the green light because he was on fire. He had a step-back 3-pointer and it rattled in and out. Sometimes that will happen, I guess.
"We played with heart the entire game, especially down the stretch. Even after losing Timmy (Remillard) to fouls. They never gave up and I am very proud of our guys."
Ryan added 18 rebounds to go with his 27 points. Manney finished with 14 points, while Stevens added nine points and five steals.
Casey led the way for the Indians with 14 points. Bruno tallied 13 points, while Remillard finished with nine. Bret Boyer hauled in seven rebounds.
"It feels great," Ryan said. "Everything coming together and to be able to win a sectional championship my senior year — indescribable."
"I think Section II is going to be a different world," Converse said. "It's going to be a challenge.
"These kids have surprised me all year, though. I have faith in them and believe they can do anything they put their minds to."

One of the weird byproducts of my ADD is that sometimes I cook just because I need to do something and making something — in this case, edible — gives me a beginning, middle, and end to focus on. So this weekend, out of the blue, I felt a deep, burning desire to focus my energy on making a cherry compote. I have never made one before. This one is a hodgepodge of, like, four different recipes I read online. Then, as a reward and because I didn't know what else to do with it, I mixed my compote with cheap champagne, which I always have stocked. And lemme tell ya — sometimes my ADD is good for something because this cherry compote cocktail was yummy. And I still have plenty left over for cocktails the rest of the week. Enjoy!

Document Type Doctoral Thesis Author Tabane, Elizabeth Mamatle URN etd-09282004-103250 Document Title The influence of cultural practices of Batswana people in relation to the transmission of HIV/AIDS in Botswana Degree DPhil (Social Work) Department Social Work Supervisor
Advisor Name Title Prof C S L Delport Keywords

- prevention
- culture
- Botswana

Date 2003-05-08 Availability unrestricted Abstract In this investigation an attempt was firstly made to define, describe and explicate the phenomenon of HIV/AIDS providing a basis for understanding the multidimensional nature of HIV/AIDS in terms of its history, key characteristics, etiology, consequences, preventative and care strategies. Secondly, culture and cultural practices in general were investigated after which the characteristics, functions and elements of culture were studied. Hereafter, the researcher further investigated the situation of HIV/AIDS and cultural practices of the Batswana in Botswana through a literature study.The aim of the study was to establish the influence of cultural practices of the Batswana on the transmission of HIV/AIDS in Botswana.
Three research questions were formulated for the study. The research questions included:
(a) What are the current nature and prevalence of cultural practices of the Batswana in relation to the transmission of HIV/AIDS in Botswana?
(b) To what extents do these cultural practices contribute to the spread of HIV/AIDS?
(c) What can be done to prevent the problem of HIV/AIDS in relation with cultural practices of Batswana people in Botswana?
The selected research approach for the study was the combined quantitative- qualitative approach and the type of research, was identified as applied research. An exploratory research design was selected to reach the objectives of the study, namely:
(a) To conduct the investigation within a theoretical based framework by undertaking a literature review on HIV/AIDS as a social phenomena, culture and cultural practices in general and the culture of the Batswana specifically.
(b) To explore through an empirical study, the nature and prevalence of cultural practices of Batswana in relation to the transmission of HIV/AIDS in Botswana
(c) To provide conclusions regarding the cultural practices of the Batswana in relation to the transmission of HIV/AIDS in Botswana.
(d) To make recommendations for culturally appropriate behaviour-change strategies for Batswana in Botswana in an attempt to decrease the spread of HIV/AIDS.
Qualitative data through focus group discussions (22 females and 26 males) was collected. The sample thus included 48 respondents. The empirical research findings confirmed that it is acceptable in Botswana that men can have multiple relationships even after marriage. This includes polygamy, which is still part of the Batswana culture. Children are very important therefore the use of condoms is unacceptable. Prevention strategies do not take cultural practices into consideration.
The empirical findings based on quantitative data collected through a structured interview schedule with 66 respondents revealed that the two statements: (a) " A man is like a bull and should not be confined to one pasture" and (b) "Men are the only persons who can go to the cattle post and this puts women in subordinate positions" are part of the Batswana culture.
These behaviours contribute to the spread of HIV. Alcohol consumption is also a contributory factor to the transmission of HIV. The family should take responsibility in educating the children about HIV/AIDS.
The aim of the study and study objectives were achieved and a detailed presentation of recommendations are included in this research report.

Marijuana: Rob Corry wants proof of support for U.S. Attorney MMC seizure threats
Earlier this month, attorney Rob Corry shared correspondence between him and U.S. Attorney John Walsh over seizure-threat letters sent to 23 dispensaries near schools. His latest gambit: A Freedom of Information Act request intended, in part, to determine if the actions are as popular as Walsh has implied.
This last question arose amid another exchange of letters, this time between Walsh and Boulder District Attorney Stan Garnett, who asked the U.S. Attorney's Office not to target dispensaries in his area that are following local and state laws. This request was not granted: Late last week, Walsh sent 25 more seizure letters to dispensaries, and Boulder was a location represented among recipients.
In his reply to Garnett, Walsh mentioned "the outpouring of thanks and appreciation this office has received from Coloradans in affected communities for our program to close marijuana dispensaries near schools." To determine the scope of this response, Corry is asking for "all documents, information, letters, phone messages, electronic mails, and other communication constituting the 'outpouring of public support' for the U.S. Attorney's program." And Corry sounds as if he thinks Walsh has exaggerating this alleged mandate.Rob Corry.
"One man's outpouring is another man's six e-mails from anonymous parents," he says, adding that in his mind, this reference "basically argues that the U.S. Attorney is subject to public pressure, which is contrary to anything I've heard. I was counsel to the U.S. House of Representatives' judiciary committee in the late Nineties, and I heard over and over that the Department of Justice was immune to public pressure: 'We enforce the law equally, so don't try to sway us.' That was always touted as one of their strengths. But what we heard from Walsh is the diametric opposite of that."
U.S. Attorney's Office spokesman Jeff Dorschner doesn't buy this reasoning. He notes that "I'm not going to go point by point through Mr. Corry's letter," which makes ten separate requests, "because I don't think that's productive. But it's important to note that the U.S. Attorney has received an outpouring of support from parents, school administrators and physicians, as well as the law enforcement community, with the exception of Mr. Garnett."
However, the majority of these attaboys will be impossible to document. "An overwhelming majority of that outpouring has come personally from people coming up to him and thanking him as he attends various events," Dorschner says. "And he's not counting how many of them there are. He's just saying, 'Thank you.'"
As for Corry's implication that Walsh's mention of support suggests he's playing to the masses, Dorschner points out that "when the first phase was under discussion, and when it was implemented, it was done with no public knowledge and no public influence. The support came after his office sent out the first wave of letters."

The reason I have posted here is because, Pomegranates have not done so well here in SE Louisiana. It seems they are not too fond of high humidity and or wet feet.
Some local "experts" have informed me that I would stand a much better chance of success if I managed to get a plant or cutting from a Pomegranate grown in a similar environment. Of course, from a tree that reliably sets fruit. I am willing to be very generous in this trade. We are just rebuilding from the flood of hurricane Katrina and I would love to have 1 or 2 Pomegranates in the new yard. I have the following plants to offer; Several amaryllis, sun tolerant caladiums, parsley,
Seeds I have;
2 Bitter Melons, 3 Asian cucumbers, 6 sweet peppers, 2 summer squash (bush) 3 summer squash (vines), 3 eggplants, 4 melons, New Zealand and Malabar spinach I have an even larger list of cool-season vegetable seeds. Please send me an email if you are interested. |
Follow-Up Postings:
I live in Baker, Louisiana and am slowly turning my back yard into a grove of various fruit trees. 'Wonderful' seems to be a very common variety grown in Louisiana. Seems like no variety is perfect because of our humidity, and soil type. I planted mine as a 3ft bush in Feb 2008 in a sandy well drained area. I suspect if you can find or make a well drained area you might be successful. I will try hand pollinating as well. Incorporating sand along a natural ridge in your landscape might be helpful. I will try to remember to let you know how mine does. |
Here is a link that might be useful: my website
Just about to plant a "wonderful" pomegranate that I picked up at a local nursery in slidell. Hoping to have some luck. Have you found out much information on people that grow locally? |
I just joined gardenweb, and saw your listing. I bought several pomegranates from a man from Louisiana at the Truck Crop Experimental Station fall vegetable show in Crystal Springs, Mississippi. I've been growing them in Jackson Ms and got a dozen pomegranates from them last year. Delicious! The man who sold them said they take 4 years to produce fruit, but they are worth the wait! I am starting some cuttings right now from stump sprouts. If they root I could let you know. The 'Wonderful' should be good if that nursery in Slidell can be trusted. The one I have is not a wonderful but is a little lighter in color of the aril (the juicy part around the seed). It is absolutely wonderful, tho! Anyway, hope you had luck with your pomegranates! |

We've known it was coming for some time now, but T-Mobile just sent out a press release including details regarding their plans for a WiFi Calling application for their Android phones. The new T-Mobile myTouch will launch later this year with the feature, and the Motorola Defy will be receiving it as well. Additionally, the T-Mobile G2 should be getting it in the coming months, along with the LG Optimus and possibly the Motorola Charm.
While there have been several third party retailers already grabbing headlines with pre-orders of the T-Mobile G2, T-Mo themselves have been keeping mum about when the phone will go up for sale. Well, several T-Mobile customers have been reporting today that the G2 has appeared in their online store with an enticing label: "Pre-ordering starts soon!"
While this is no concrete date, it's still enough to set vanilla Froyo fanboys' hearts aflutter, despite the continued lack of an official release date for the G2 (don't give up hope, guys).
While the teaser site for the T-Mobile G2 has been up for quite some time now, HTC, the company actually manufacturing the device, have been quite reticent about its specifications and what's driving that stock Froyo goodness. Of course, we've known of its MSM7230 and various other details for a couple of weeks, but it's nice to see the official specs solidified on HTC's website. There are no surprises contained within, but something about the confirmation of what was once nebulous rumour can't help but bring a warming pulse to every Android's circuitry.
It's not uncommon to see the big chains try to get a piece of the smartphone launch action with price reductions by mail-in-rebate. However, the hassle that this process usually entails doesn't make things all that enticing to customers. Thankfully pre-orders for the G2 aren't yet open on T-Mobile's website, so prospective buyers now have the pleasure in knowing they'll be able to get in instant discount with RadioShack, bringing the price down to $149.99 on a two year contract.
It seems to be the trend nowadays that you know everything about a device before it even gets properly announced, and while it makes for plenty of blog-fodder, it sort of spoils the fun of waiting for new things to come out.
Anyhoo, TmoNews just got their hands on the pricing scheme for the upcoming G2, HTC's eagerly anticipated landscape slider. Calling the pricing "Exactly what everyone expects it to be", TmoNews posted a photo of an internal T-Mobile document, showing the G2 to be $499.99 off-contract, or $199.99 with (presumably) a new two-year agreement and a $50 MIR.
Tmonews has leaked a T-Mobile retail partner sales FAQ in which it is explicitly states that T-Mobile will never again stock the Nexus One in their retail stores.
This would seem to be the last nail in the coffin for the Nexus One's US tour, though it is still sold abroad in the UK and South Korea. While the document doesn't explicitly preclude the possibility of online sales, "The Nexus One was sold and marketed by Google" is pretty damning.
This doesn't need much explaining. If you start a new T-Mobile 2 year contract or upgrade and extend your current service contract, you can get the MyTouch 3G for nothing, nada, zilch. Got a frugal friend or family member looking for a cheap smartphone? Look no further. Just check out T-Mobile's online store page.
Samsung Vibrant - the Galaxy S series representative on T-Mobile - is going live today, July 15th, and T-Mo already made it available in their online store for $250-$50 rebate.
A few days ago, we also pointed out that the phone is also available from Wirefly for $50 cheaper than T-Mo - $149.99.
Well, it looks like today Amazon.com followed suit and is now offering the Vibrant at the same cool $149.99 delivered for free in 2 days.

Chicago Cubs' Scott Feldman during a spring training baseball workout Thursday, Feb. 14, 2013, in Mesa, Ariz. (AP Photo/Morry Gash)
MESA, Ariz. — A year ago with the Texas Rangers, Scott Feldman, who had won 17 games in 2009, finally was healthy again and ready to reclaim a starting role.
The Rangers didn't see it that way and sent him to the bullpen.
''It was a little disappointing,'' he said. ''There just really was no spot for me.''
But there will be a spot for him in the Cubs' rotation. Manager Dale Sveum said Thursday that Feldman ''will be one of the starters.''
Sveum followed that up with a disclaimer that there's no guarantees of any spots after Edwin Jackson, Jeff Samardzija and Matt Garza. But the Cubs approached Feldman early in free agency about joining their rotation, and he signed in November as one of five experienced starters on the roster.
When the Cubs signed Jackson to a four-year deal just a month later, Feldman's role seemed less certain. The talk from management had been about the three locks in the rotation and a battle for the last two spots.
But if Feldman had a reason to be peeved, that doesn't seem to be his attitude.
''It's not like I was like, 'Damn, we signed Edwin,' '' he said. ''I was happy about it. He's a good dude. And he's a good teammate from everything I've heard.''
Now Feldman, 30, opens camp with a rotation job to lose. That leaves Travis Wood and Carlos Villanueva to battle for one spot until Scott Baker is ready. His return from Tommy John surgery puts him at ''an above-average chance of probably starting a little bit late,'' Sveum said.
Assuming he doesn't have a significant setback, he likely would start the season on the disabled list at least one full turn through the rotation, assuming a move backdated the maximum days allowed before the opener.
As for Feldman, the talk of roles and numbers is just noise. He said he's just looking forward to a ''fresh start" and "clean slate" after 10 seasons with the same organization.
''I don't think you can promise anything,'' said Feldman, whose 2009 victory total represents a single-season high among the seven Cubs pitchers in the mix for rotation jobs. ''They said, 'Just come in here, you're going to be a starter. Go to spring training, and do your thing.'
''But I'm sure if I go out there and don't hold my end of the bargain up, I'm not going to be a starter. So I'll just go out there and do my thing, and I think everything will take care of itself and I'll be fine.''

A few nifty new images of what is purported to be the new 13 inch Retina Display MacBook Pro have appeared on a Chinese Forum Site. The images were found on WeiPhone (via MacRumors) and appears to show the port configuration of the new device as well as some as the internals. Screenshots of the new display are also shown, with one demonstrating that the MacBook will have a maximum resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels.
The pictures of the device are pretty small, but the author of the post actually does go some lengths to demonstrate the thin form factor of the 13 inch Retina MacBook Pro to the 13 inch MacBook Air with some comparative pictures. In addition, there are a few photos of the internals of the device showing the battery and the processor unit.
The 13 Inch Retina Display MacBook Pro is expected to be announced alongside the iPad mini (or iPad Air as it may be called) at an Apple media event on Tuesday, October 23. No pricing has yet been revealed for the device, but recent rumors have pegged the base model at $1599-$1699.

Don't Forget the Scout Rank!
Speaking of horror stories (see Merit Badge Know How below), here's another caution for parents. I heard about this from the same friend who works with the BSA to process Eagle Scout Award applications for our stake.
Just as lack of documentation can cause problems when a boy goes to apply for his Eagle Scout Award, another problem is when boys earn all their ranks but forgot about the so-called "joining rank" or rank of Scout. This MUST be the first rank earned. Boys who end up doing the work for Tenderfoot ranks and up without earning the Scout rank first have not earned those ranks as far as the BSA is concerned, even if that boy was given his awards in a Court of Honor, etc.
This error is not usually caught until the BSA Council is reviewing the records for a boy applying for his Eagle Scout Award. Guess what?
He doesn't get it.
Ideally, leaders should be well informed to prevent this kind of problem. However, there is no better advocate for a scout than his parent. Parents, be aware of these things and stay on top of what's going on.
If you want to avoid other potential Eagle Scout Award nightmares, see my post Merit Badge Know How.

Reinvented: Orzo Salad 5 Ways for Summer
by Katie Allen in Recipes, June 20th, 2012
Here in Food Network Kitchens, we love simple, classic recipes. We are also paid to think about food all day. So we've taken classic foods and drinks and reimagined them into three, four or five different ways. No standard recipes here, just the occasional technique and pictures. Think of it as a picture recipe.
Orzo is pretty delicious with just some butter and salt. But why not try one of these summertime-inspired orzo salads? The options are endless. Plus, you can serve them warm, room temperature or slightly chilled.
First, start with the classic version below:
Here are several new ideas to add new life to a classic:

Delia Smith is back and this time she's teaching us how to cheat at cooking. Oh. I prefer it when she poaches eggs to be honest. Will the original domestic goddess show us she's still gorrit, or will we be the ones left cheated? The jury is out!
White Girl (Monday 9pm, BBC2)
A beautiful addition to BBC2's White season. Abi Morgan's film stars Anna Maxwell Martin as the mother of a young teen who starts to attend prayer meetings at the local mosque. The girl, Leah, is trying to make sense of a chaotic upbringing with an alcoholic mother and an abusive step dad, and her involvement with the mosque helps her find solace and peace. It's an engaging and thought-provoking piece, with a superb performance from young Holly Kenny as Leah. This could be a young actress to watch very, very closely.
The Fixer (Monday 9pm, ITV1)
We previewed this last week in a First Look, and our judgement remains the same. The Fixer is a promising drama thriller from ITV, and that in itself is something to be cherished. There are some faults (chiefly Tamzin Outhwaite), but the dialogue is taught and funny and, as first episodes go, this is not a bad effort at all. Considering it replaces The Palace, it couldn't be much worse, could it?
W10 LDN (Monday 9pm, BBC3)
Continuing BBC3's season of new dramas, W10 LDN is written by Noel Clarke (who also appears) and set on a London estate populated by some well-drawn teen characters.
10 Days to War (Monday 10.30pm, BBC2)
Following White Girl comes another thoughtful piece of drama from BBC2 this evening. This is the first of eight 10-minute dramas covering diverse moments in the lead up to the war in Iraq. Here, Juliet Stevenson plays a Foreign Office lawyer who resigns over legal issues relating to the invasion. These 10-minute dramas are difficult to do, but this seems to succeed quite effectively.
Bionic Woman (Tuesday 9pm, ITV2)
It's probably been cancelled by now across the pond, but that's no reason not to check out our very own Michelle Ryan in her first major US TV role. It's not a bad start, so one has to wonder what went wrong to decimate the ratings. This new Bionic Woman perhaps tries a little too hard to avoid camp, and Ryan's accent is a little hard to take. But those are minor quibbles in an exciting, punchy opener that also features Battlestar Galactica's Katee Sackhoff on villainous form.
Sport Relief Does The Apprentice (Wednesday 9pm, BBC1)
One of last year's TV highlights was Sir Alan Sugar's little show hooking up with Comic Relief for a celebrity themed version. This year, it's the same deal, only this time it's for Sport Relief, but expect the same mix of tantrums, asides to camera and grumblings from Sir Alan that we've seen many times before (and are hungry for more, it seems). This comes ahead of the imminent new series of The Apprentice.
Torchwood (Wednesday 9pm, BBC2)
Oh my, Torchwood does comedy and gets away with it. How marvellous! After the last few bleak (but high quality episodes), it's good to see Torchwood can get in touch with its lighter side and not lose any momentum. It's Gwen's wedding Day, but a Torchwood operation has left her with a bite from a shape shifter and a very odd bun in the oven. And do I spy the legendary Nerys Hughes in the guest cast. Well yes, I do. God, I think I really might love this show.
Rock Rivals (Wednesday 9pm, ITV1)
Well, we do love an underdog here at TV Today, so it seems only polite to give this second episode a thumbs up, even if it is because we just feel a bit sorry for Rock Rivals.
Waterloo Road (Thursday 8pm, BBC1)
After a mammoth 20 episode run, this likeable series comes to an end, so well worth a look to see just where it's at now. Waterloo Road is a much different beast these days, but still enjoyable and a solid addition to the BBC's strong drama portfolio.
Ashes to Ashes (Thursday 9pm, BBC1)
It's still not perfect (but then, was Life on Mars?) but Ashes to Ashes has settled down into a thoroughly satisfying piece of TV drama with a bit of everything. Sexy leads (Glenister and Hawes), great dialogue, fun characters and some good, solid crimes to solve. It's more fanciful than its forebear, but could we have really coped with more of the same?

"Superb print quality - I know this because I was in the printing industry at one time. The Pearl shimmer added an elegant look to the design."
"Ordered this Bridal Invitation for my daughter's Bridal Shower.The invitation was beautiful! I had so many compliments! The pearl texture of the paper made my invitation stand out. The design was exactly as it appeared online. Would definitely recommend to a friend. As a matter of fact, my friend is ordering this for her daughter's Bridal Shower."
"Thank you for the beautiful invitation for my daughter's shower. I was so pleased with the quality and everything was delivered in a timely manner."
"These invitations exceeded my expectations. I ordered these for my daughter's Bridal Shower. Since I was a new user to this site, I was unsure of how they would turn out. They were beautiful and classy. In addition, I received many positive comments from my guests. I would highly recommend Wedding Paper Divas to everyone."
"This invitation was used for a bridal shower for a fall wedding at a vineyard. The colors and design are beautiful. My only complaint is that they don't offer rectangular envelopes to fit this square card like other online invite options. Stamps for square (non-standard) envelopes are very spendy! Overall a great option and I would use it again!"
