Summary executions and mass human rights abuses targeting innocent civilians in Mali are being perpetrated by soldiers loyal to the dubious Malian regime in a campaign supported by the United Nations, the new socialist French government, and the Obama administration. According to human rights groups and witnesses on the ground, the atrocities are increasing as the number of murdered victims continues to rise — eerily reminiscent of similar tragic interventions in Libya, Syria, and the Ivory Coast.
The regime ruling southern Mali out of the capital city of Bamako, which seized power in a military coup last year led by a U.S. government-trained officer, is currently attempting to recapture the northern regions of the country. The vast swath of territory in the north was declared independent last year by a group of historically oppressed nomadic Tuareg rebels armed with weapons obtained from the recent Western-backed war on Libya.
Islamic fighters with various loyalties joined the fight against the corrupt central government, too — providing a half-baked excuse for the UN, the French government, Obama, and various African despots to enter the fray on behalf of the illegitimate regime in the south. After the UN Security Council purported to "authorize" an international invasion on behalf of the coup-installed regime, forces from France openly began their military campaign earlier this month under the guise of fighting "Islamic extremism."
Obama, the U.K. government, and a motley assortment of African tyrants — most of whom continue to be propped up with Western taxpayer money — quickly joined the battle as well. But within days of the military operation to crush rebels in the north, disturbing reports of gross human rights violations perpetrated by Western-backed forces began to emerge from across the region.
"This series of grave abuses confirms the concerns that we have been expressing for several weeks," said President Souhayr Belhassen with the International Federation for Human Rights (FIDH), a Paris-based umbrella group representing more than 160 organizations around the world. "These acts of revenge together with the extreme tensions that exists between the communities constitute an explosive cocktail leading us to fear that the worst could happen, especially in the context of the reconquering the North."

Peace, turkey pardoned by President Obama last Thanksgiving, euthanized
WASHINGTON - Peace, one of two turkeys pardoned by President Obama last year, was euthanized Monday, according to an official who insisted the timing of the death - days before the Thanksgiving holiday - was not suspicious.
Rebecca Aloisi, vice president for marketing at the Mount Vernon Estate, confirmed that Peace had been died after a weekend "illness." But Aloise knew neither the nature of the illness, the manner of death, nor what had been done with the remains of the large, edible bird.
"I appreciate where you're going with this," Aloisi told CNN. "But I assure you that these birds are extremely well cared for." The decision to euthanize the bird was made by a veterinarian in consultation with Mount Vernon's livestock department, she said.
Peace had served as the understudy for Liberty, another turkey, at the 2011 pardoning ceremony by President Obama. Obama chose to pardon both birds to spare them from the fate of the plate.
But pressed on details about Peace's death, and what was done with the carcass, Aloisi deferred. "Honestly, I work in marketing," she said, defensively. "We have a 500-acre facility."
The facility - historic home of President George Washington - includes a landmark mansion, farm, wharf and the Mount Vernon Inn.
Asked if the inn serves turkey, Aloisi hedged. "That's a good question. I assume so," she said.
The inn, in fact, boasts of "costumed servers" who serve "delicious regional and colonial cuisine" including a "Roast Turkey Dinner" for $17.50, according to the inn's web site.
Aloisi said turkeys have short lifespans, especially those bred for eating. The timing of the death was "curious," Aloisi allowed, but not suspicious.
"I know that it was done in a humane manner but I don't know the mechanics," she said.
Mount Vernonanticipates receiving more turkeys following this year's pardoning ceremony. "We were very prepared to have all four birds live here," Aloisi said.
At the Nov. 23, 2011, pardoning, President Obama said Peace was "going to retire to a life of leisure at Mount Vernon - the same place where George Washington spent his golden years."
But now Peace is dead.
And two new birds pardoned by President Obama will be put on public display until early January, and will then be retired to live out the rest of their natural lives, spared the feast.
If that's what you choose to believe.

The aircraft that is registered to the company mentioned is 717RL. Matches the type mentioned and is registered to Superior Pallet. According to FAA database it is a 1972 PA-32-300.
I was told th fuel selector could be confusing in this particular plane.
All 3 souls on board were prominent members of the Civil Air Patrol. Very sad.
[This comment was deleted.]
This is the aircraft involved.Thoughts and Prayers to all affected.
No it was'nt.Fortunately 2172G is parked in the Hangar safe and sound...
The aircraft that is registered to the company mentioned is N717RL. Matches the type mentioned and is registered to Superior Pallet. According to FAA database it is a 1972 PA-32-300. Local newspaper confirms this was the aircraft.
Reg owner is not the one listed for the AC that went down. Check the news reports as the owners were not on the AC when it crashed.
The line in this version of the story that this plane '... had been parked in a hangar for a month ,,,' tells it all IMHO. Isn't checking the fuel for water etc the first thing you do?
Wait for the accident report as it should have a much better idea than any off hand comments made at this time will.Many things can make an engine not produce power and sound strange to some.
Do you have any evidence indicating that the fuel wasn't checked? If not, you're jumping to conclusions.
True, but aren't you also jumping to a conclusion by assuming that it was checked? And I did say 'IMHO', as I've seen a similar crash many years ago, where a very experienced pilot made that mistake, and I have also witnessed many private pilots forgetting to check the tanks.
As Boyd said, perhaps we should keep our opinions out of the forum and just wait for the accident report.

"But when the Counselor comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, he will bear witness to me; "
John 15:1 "I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser.
John 15:2 Every branch of mine that bears no fruit, he takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit.
John 15:3 You are already made clean by the word which I have spoken to you.
John 15:4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me.
John 15:5 I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in me, and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.
John 15:6 If a man does not abide in me, he is cast forth as a branch and withers; and the branches are gathered, thrown into the fire and burned.
John 15:7 If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you will, and it shall be done for you.
John 15:8 By this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit, and so prove to be my disciples.
John 15:9 As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you; abide in my love.
John 15:10 If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in his love.
John 15:11 These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.
John 15:12 "This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.
John 15:13 Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
John 15:14 You are my friends if you do what I command you.
John 15:15 No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you.
John 15:16 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide; so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you.
John 15:17 This I command you, to love one another.
John 15:18 "If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you.
John 15:19 If you were of the world, the world would love its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.
John 15:20 Remember the word that I said to you, 'A servant is not greater than his master.' If they persecuted me, they will persecute you; if they kept my word, they will keep yours also.
John 15:21 But all this they will do to you on my account, because they do not know him who sent me.
John 15:22 If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin.
John 15:23 He who hates me hates my Father also.
John 15:24 If I had not done among them the works which no one else did, they would not have sin; but now they have seen and hated both me and my Father.
John 15:25 It is to fulfil the word that is written in their law, 'They hated me without a cause.'
John 15:26 But when the Counselor comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, he will bear witness to me;
John 15:27 and you also are witnesses, because you have been with me from the beginning.

Their first signee is outfielder Scott Beerer, 29, formerly a second-round pick of the Colorado Rockies in 2003 out of Texas A&M.
Beerer was selected as a pitcher, but the Rockies converted him to the outfield in 2008. According to this story, he moved to southern California after briefly retiring and began working on his swing with former Oriole Brady Anderson.
Beerer batted .290 with 18 doubles, 13 homers and 42 RBIs in 89 games at Double-A Tulsa this year, and .372 with 12 doubles, three homers, 28 RBIs and a .915 OPS in 41 games at Triple-A Colorado Springs. He's a right-handed hitter who batted .389 against right-handers after joining Colorado Springs.

Just from looking at his stats and researching about him it seems he is a better version of Adam Loewen.

Dwayne Wharton serves as the Director of External Affairs for The Food Trust, a non-profit organization with a mission to ensure that everyone has access to affordable, nutritious food. In this role he is helping to increase healthy food retail in underserved areas across the country. Dwayne's first introduction to Awbury Arboretum was over a decade and a half ago when he attended a good friend's wedding on the grounds. Later, he would accompany his children on class trips that were filled with discovery and lessons on the value of stewardship. He now regularly enjoys the tranquility of its sprawling 55-acres where he picnics with family and walks the trail with his dog on early mornings. As a neighbor and friend of the Arboretum, Dwayne says he is amazed that Awbury's 55 acres remain free and open to the public, and hopes to do his part to help preserve the Arboretum and its programs so that more weddings can be held there, more children and families can learn and
discover the beauties of nature, and so that this community can continue to take full advantage of this tremendous treasure. Dwayne is volunteering as one of Awbury's "Community Chefs" for the "Cookin' with Who?" community fundraiser on November 7th!

The St. Lawrence Central and Massena hockey teams both have something to prove as they prepare to play this afternoon in the state semifinals at the Memorial Auditorium in Utica.
St. Lawrence (17-4-1) is ranked No. 1 in the state according to the latest sportswriters poll and hasnt won a state title since 1982 when it won its first one.
Its a nice feather in our cap to be ranked number one but our objective is to be number one after Sunday, said veteran SLC coach Mickey Locke.
Massena (15-6-1) last won a state championship in 2008, but this is new territory for the current Red Raiders under fourth-year head coach Mike Trimboli.
St. Lawrence gets started first with a noon Division II game against Section 1 champion John Jay-Cross River.
Massena plays at 5 p.m. against Section 5s McQuaid Jesuit.
St. Lawrence vs. John Jay-Cross River
The Larries have put together a banner season so far in Lockes 30th year behind the bench, the majority of those years assisted by Randy Roy. They captured the NAC Division II regular season banner before going on to claim the Section 10 title for the first time since 2010 with a convincing win over Norwood-Norfolk in the Division II final.
The Larries followed that up with a 3-1 win over Section 5 champion Webster Thomas in the first round of the state tournament last Saturday at the Tri-Town Arena to earn their bid to the semifinals. In 2010, St. Lawrence made it past the first round of states before falling to Queensbury in the semifinal in Utica.
Its definitely a little more than just another game, Locke said. They are going to be a formidable opponent. Weve had a great week of practice and weve been telling the kids to concentrate on doing the things that theyve been doing all season to get to this point.
The core members of this years team played limited roles as freshmen on the 2009-10 squad, but they have stepped up to lead the Larries hopes this winter. Senior forwards Ian Lynch (20 goals-19 assists-39 points) and Blake Baldwin (8-18-26) are third and fourth, respectively, on the team in scoring, while Eric Lynch (2-10-12) has been a versatile anchor on the blueline.
The Larries have received outstanding leadership from a talented crop of underclassmen. Sophomore Lukas Arquiett leads the team in scoring with 21 goals and 25 assists for 46 points while junior Kody Kocsis has tallied another 39 points on 20 goals and 19 assists. Senior Devon Euto (7-17-24) and sophomore Nathan Stickney (12-6-18) have also been leading contributors.
The Larries defensive corps took a big hit when senior Parker Meashaw was lost for the season to an injury but senior Jarek Crump, sophomore Joe DiMatteo and freshman Jake Sutton have combined with Eric Lynch to be one of the teams strengths along with the play of senior goalie Nate McLaughlin (2.36 goals against, .905 save percentage).
John Jay enters the game at 22-1-1 as the second-ranked team in the state. The team outscored Rye 5-1 in the Section 1 final before skating to a 4-2 win on the road over Section 2 champion Queensbury in their state tournament opener.
Shawn Smith leads a potent John Jay offense with 48 points on 36 goals and 12 assists. Frazier Bostwick has 40 points (23-17), followed by Jack Grimm (16-9-25) and Mark Laprine (9-15-24). Six other players have generated 13 points or more while Matt Lanza had posted a 1.57 goals against average and .923 save percentage handling the bulk of the goaltending duties.
The state Division II final is scheduled for Sunday at 12:30 p.m.
Massena is looking to apply a familiar formula to a new environment in the semifinals.
This is a new experience for everyone. Its going to be a completely different atmosphere than what were use to but we have to try to treat this like any other game, said coach Mike Trimboli. Weve watched videos of them with the kids and weve been able to break some things down.
The Raiders are ranked third in the latest state sportswriters Division I poll. The earned their third trip to the state tournament under Trimboli with a dramatic 3-2 overtime win over NAC regular season champion Potsdam in the Section 10 final. They followed that up with a hard-fought 3-1 state quarterfinal round win at home over Monroe-Woodbury of Section 9 last Saturday night.
The senior core of captain Zach Robert, assistant captain Jordan Hart, Grayson Phillips, Anthony Cortese, Brantley Adams, Ian Wilson and Tyler Simms has provided outstanding leadership throughout the season but the Raiders have come to rely on a strong group of upperclassmen this winter.
Junior Tyler Young leads the team in scoring with 13 goals and 13 assists for 26 points, followed by Robert with 22 points on six goals and 16 assists, Phillips (7-9-16), Cortese (8-8-16), freshman Patrick Manning (5-6-11), who netted the game-winning goal in overtime in the Section 10 final, sophomore Dalton Mullin (3-5-8) and Adams (3-5-8).
We had some key injuries on defense and we thought they would be a minus, Trimboli said. We had to rely on some of the younger kids and theyve really stepped up.
McQuaid (17-5-1) is ranked second in the state. They are led offensively by forward Michael Capicotto (21-15-36), blueliner Jared Tallo (11-13-24) and forward Michael Campbell (11-10-21).
The Division I championship game is slated for 3:30 p.m. Sunday.

Reason Taught Me Selflessness
I distinctly remember looking at my cell phone. It was 3:04 PM on a Monday afternoon. I was at Walmart, picking up some groceries - some groceries I had to come back to get since I had forgotten them an hour and a half earlier! It was a busy day. I remember sweating and rushing around. I was tired and decided I would grab a quick bite to eat at the MacDonalds store inside before getting in the check-out line. I thought to myself, "Finally, a chance to sit down and just vegetate for about 30 minutes and enjoy a nice cold, double-chocolate milkshake with a Big Mac and super-sized fries!" The thankfully short line at the counter I had to wait in wasn't that bad. All I wanted was to sit down and rest. My legs were aching, but it wasn't long until I had my food and was seated comfortably. It was just too good to be true that day. Not a moment after I sat down, I was jolted out of my relaxation by what I saw...
Now my mind is on my busy day, and when I am trying to complete a task, I am as single-minded and inflexible about it as they come. I don't want to be bothered. I don't want to have my down time interrupted. I can't stand the nasty sight of this boy. I would not have been able to eat had I not positioned my chair to look away from him. The restaurant was small. There was no where else I could sit to avoid seeing or hearing him. But I was hungry, hadn't eaten all day. I was angry and disturbed, thinking about all the chores I had left to get done by the evening. Then, just when I thought I was going to drop my mind into the proper channel to actually enjoy a bite of the lucious grease burger that sat in front me, it really began, [COUGH, COUGH, COUGH, COUGH...etc.] That damn kid was disrupting my meal! The scene became so bad, I pondered just leaving, but remembered I still needed to check out. Oh well, maybe it'll pass [COUGH, COUGH, etc.]. I was trying to look away, but was compelled to look back at him: spit-up, exactly the color of my milkshake, all over him and his table! I wasn't going to be able to finish my meal now, I just knew it! Nothing had gone right this day and here I was being deprived of one of my few pleasures in life - eating! When this happened another four or five times, I wasn't even hungry anymore! I was angry, damn angry! I couldn't take my mind off his slobbering all over the place! [COUGH, COUGH, etc.] It continued, made me cringe inside! Every time I would try and look away, this palsied pretzel of a handicapped kid would recapture my attention by spilling more soda, regurgitate French fries, and twist and turn with an open mouth full of food. The twitchy movements and spastic tendencies increased, as did those distasteful moans of disability that sounded like a sick, dying cow [MOOOOAN, MOOANNN, MOOOANN, COUGH, COUGH, COUGH, COUGH, COUGH, COUGH, COUGH, COUGH, COUGH, SQUIRM, SQUIRM, SQUIRM, SQUIRM, SQUIRM, COUGH, COUGH, REGURGITATE, REGURGITATE, REGURGITATE, etc.] By this time, mom had partially chewed food all over her, but you could tell she was used to it. [MOOOAN, MOOOAN, COUGH, COUGH, etc.]The tension was building and my heart started beating faster. I couldn't believe causality had selected this particular event to happen here and now. The moans got louder. I started to think of ways to wrap up my food and just carry it around with me till I got home, but in the process, I almost spilled my drink because I couldn't concentrate due to this pitiable specimen of humanity! I so badly wanted to tell the lady to get that damn kid out of there! Why did it have to be happening when I was eating? Why? Why? [COUGH, COUGH, MOOAN, MOOAN, SQUIRM, SQUIRM, REGURGITATE, REGURGITATE, etc.]. The spark was ignited...
No...I didn't actually say those words, but I had to exercise a feat of self-control like few times in my life to keep from saying them! Then I began to cool down...my reason took hold of me, and after a brief mental pause, I began to perspectivize. When I did, it was as though I slapped myself in the face for being a compassionless, selfish prick.
Here was this poor kid, this horrendous mistake of nature, sitting in a wheelchair, absolutely helpless to his circumstances, having to live in a world of shame and misery, and all I could think about is my blasted milkshake!! Here is a pitiable little being, confined to a life of round-the-clock care and all I can focus on is getting to the check out line quickly and scarfing down grub I can come back and get anytime I want!
This deprepid kid! He'll never know the touch of a beautiful woman, nor the joy of sex. He'll never know the independence of choosing and buying a house or a shiny new car. He'll never know what it is like to run down to the local 7-11 corner store and grab a Big Gulp after a hard workout. He won't even know the carefree fun of getting drunk with his buddies at a late night party. He should never have been subjected to this life. Someone, some people, should have known better and not let it come to this, but that wasn't his decision to make. A mistake was made, and he was that mistake...a living, breathing mistake.
But not me. My faculties work fine, physically and mentally. Through and through, I'm a normal guy. I'm no Brad Pitt by any means, but when I go out in public, I never have to worry about being pitied as a freak of nature. I will never have to face the sort of mockery he faces. No sir 'ee! I can go to the store and do whatever my precious self desires to do when I am good and ready!
But damned if I didn't come within an inch of losing my head and saying something to that poor mother I would have forever regretted.
Here is this unfortunate woman, waiting night and day on this invalid. Her patience could be seen in her eyes. But I wasn't thinking about either of them, nor the pain and the difficulties they must face everyday. I was only thinking about me and my precious, ordinary life. I was being selfish, totally selfish.
On their way out, this woman glanced at me, and I have a feeling as perceptive as she seemed to be, she might have been noticing how perturbed people were at her for subjecting them to her son. She glanced at me just for a second as she was about to head out the door, and as she did, I smiled at her to let her know that it was OK with me. I'm sure glad I had that chance.
Better late than never, I became unselfish. I became unselfish not by religion, not by Christianity, not by Islam, not by the principles of Tibetan Buddhism, not by the prevalent influence of so-called "Judeo-Christian Values", and not by self-help books promoted by that crying-crew homefront known as The Oprah Winfry Show, but by the most valuable thing instilled in us all - reason. No deity was shaking his finger at me, telling me to become unselfish when I put myself in her place and made way for my anger to subside. I became selfless when the reason in me combined with my humanity, and when I remembered that old, cherished saying, "Tears are our common lot."

Tracy Denver, his wife, had some interesting observations on his work: I never ask questions about what he does. For me (Act of Valor) was incredibly eye-opening to actually see a submarine mission or running around in the jungle, jumping out of a plane, shooting his weapons. For me, it was like, oh, so this is what you are doing when you are away. I appreciated it actually.

Your cart is empty!
I use this scrubber for cleaning my ankles,arm,legs,shoulders it cleans well and it made my dry patches on the skin very soft and smooth.
I like this cleanser as I use a lot of products with glycolic acid. I use it as a body cleanser. Don't be scared to use this. It's very mild for those that are used to products containing glycolic acid. For those that are new to this, alternate it with your usual body cleanser to get used to it.
After using this regularly along with my glycolic lotion and vit E lotion, I'm left with smooth and more even toned skin. My only wish is that it had a higher percentage of glycolic acid. Even though it's not made for the face I have used it on my face at the most two times a week as I didn't want to irritate my skin. Overall, this is a great product for those that want clear and smooth skin.
Very good result.
This scrub is very good; he really does get deep into the skin, and what I love most about it is that it contains beta hydroxy...which is an excellent ingredient for skin care for women, like myself over 40. i recommend this product; After i patted my face dry, i could actually feel and SEE the difference.. IT gets in to your pores, I love it, and will continue to buy it.. I use it 3x a week only, in the evening before bed; the other days, i use the Neutrogena foaming fash wash... Thats another good product, i have been using it now for a year, and it is good, makes your face "tingle"... Very refreshing in the morning; wakes me up!!

CANTON - Exceptional quarterbacks are often referred to as warriors for their ability to absorb punishment, provide stellar leadership and make split-second decisions which can make the difference between victory and defeat.
On Thursday, at the Don Petty Re-Open Golf Tournament at the St. Lawrence University Golf and Country Club one of best gridiron warriors in the history of Northern Conference in Mitch Gallagher of Malone, was honored as the recipient of the 2012 Don Petty Award. The award is presented each year to recognize Section 10s Outstanding Football Player and honor the memory of the late Don Petty who officiated football, basketball and baseball for decades. Each the recipient of the award is invited to participate in the golf tournament with his family and be honored.
Since its founding, the tournament also has also served as the celebration of a successful school year by Section 10 coaches, officials, teachers, administrators, school board members and supporters from all over the section.
Gallagher will attend St. Lawrence University in the fall and SLU Coach Mark Raymond was on hand for the ceremony.
When I came to St. Lawrence one of my goals was bring to the best player in the North Country here every year, said Raymond who guided the Saints to an NCAA Tournament berth in 2011.
This year we made it happen and I am delighted to have a player of Mitchs character and ability in our program. I cant wait to see him in the scarlet and brown on Aug. 15.
The tournament was founded shortly after Don Pettys death to raise for funds for his wife, the late Joyce Petty. At Mrs. Pettys request the tournament has continued as a fund-raiser to finance a scholarship for one player in every school in the NAC to the Brian Leonard Summer Football Camp. This summers camp will be held this year from July 7-10 at SUNY Potsdam and Mike Betrus of St. Lawrence Central, Joey Dalton of OFA, Troy Gates of Gouverneur, Max Warden of Potsdam and Matt Thibault of Massena will attend on the Don Petty Scholarships.
At Thursdays tournament the organizers were also deeply honored to host four heroic Wounded Warriors stationed at Fort Drum through the Salute Military Golf Association which provides rehabilitative golf experiences and family-inclusive golf opportunities for post-911 wounded war veterans in an effort to improve the quality of life for these American heroes.
Sgt Vincent Togno of New Jersey, Sgt. Jordan Lewis of California, Sgt. David Ortiz of the Bronx and Sgt. Rob Elie of Maine formed a foursome in the captain-crew tournament and were greeted by a series of standing ovations when introduced by Tournament Co-Director Gerry Smilgin.
We are just delighted to have these heroes play here as a group. They have served us so well and today we will serve them, said Smilgin.
They have a huge welcome to attend this tournament every year and bring anyone they want. I hope they bring a whole battalion.
I have been to different events through the SMGA and this tournament was the most fun Ive had, said Sgt Ellie.
The SMGA will have a tournament at the Ives Hill Country Club in Watertown on July 27 and I invite anyone here to come and play and have a great time.
Each year two Don Petty Distinguished Service Awards to Section 10 are presented at the tournament. The 2013 awards were presented to a pair of Hall of Famers in Massenas Victor Perry and Ogdensburgs Bill Merna.
Perrys epic career as a football official will note its 50th season this fall. He has served as president of the state association of football officials and has served as the interpreter and assigner for Section 10 for 40 years.
Merna enjoyed a 37-year coaching career at Ogdensburg Free Academy where he won a host of league and sectional titles, became Section 10s winningest basketball coach and led Blue Devil teams to a series of NYS Class B Final Four appearances. He continues to serve the athletes of the of area in his second stint as the Section 10 Boys Basketball Chairman.
The Section 10 Basketball Tournament will note its 40th anniversary in the 2013-14 edition. Speaking for Section 10 Athletic Coordinator Carl Normandin Sandy Cook of Massena, the Voice of the Section 10 Tournament, announced that plans for a ceremony to note the milestone are now underway.
The Section 10 Boys-Girls Basketball Tournament Committee hopes to honor as many sectional championship teams and their coaches, all-star players and special award winners as possible.
The ceremony is being planned to happen between the overall Section 10 Girls and Boys Championship games.
Lets get the word out folks to anyone who should be at the ceremony. More information will be available later and a website is going to be set up. We hold the best tournament in the state and we want to honor as many people as possible, said Cook. We are planning to hold the girls championship game at noon followed by the ceremony and then hold the boys game at 4 p.m.

Civilization vs. Nature
I'm no Thoreau. I enjoy city life. Although I can become aghast by the majesty of a mountain and the smell of forest air, nature makes me impatient at length. I need to return to the turmoil of the city. A friend once called me the most urbanized person she knows. That might be. The city boy who occasionally has a little sip of wildlife, if not too wild and not too uncomfortable.
Still, I enjoy the fact that nature just doesn't give up. We may force it to retreat, when we construct our society with cement, steel, and glass, but we can't make it stay away for good. As soon as we turn away momentarily, nature creeps right back up behind us. It has the patience and perseverance of something continuously renewing itself, as the main trait of its existence. Nature forever returns, because that's what it's all about.
Of course, civilization has this trademark as well, sort of renewing itself as a process on which it is based. It is built, it withers, and gets rebuilt. But compared to nature, it's an amateur. Civilization contains resistance against its own renewal, and accomplishes it only by severe damage to itself. In civilization, change is reluctant and costly, whereas in nature it simply never stops. So at length, the renewal of nature is irresistible. Civilization should learn from its example and adapt to it, instead of furiously fighting it.
Actually, that's the core of the message in the Tao Te Ching. The grass gladly growing in the middle of the pavement says the same.

I agree with your argument on how even though civilization can be renewed and rebuilt, it is still an amateur compared to the natural world. Another example of how nature dominates civilizaton is freedom. In civilization there are rules to be followed and once you think you have obtained a certain freedom there will always be something to stop you in your tracks, so to speak. However, in nature there are no rules to follow or pressures that are found in civilization. In nature you are free to do as you please. There is a down side to absolute freedom, however. The only reason that civilization has not gone out of control is because of all the rules that were made to have our society run smoothly. With all the freedom in the world, nature runs wild.ReplyDelete
I am wondering if you have ever had the chance to read the book called The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, by Mark Twain? The book relates to the fact that there are no rules and endless freedom in nature, and civilization is more controlled and has less freedom.
Katie I agree with you that in nature you have a greater deal of freedom then in civilization but in some ways you have more constrictions. No running water, no electricity, no heat, and no shelter unless you make it yourself.ReplyDelete
Does living in the enviroment still seem so intriguing?
That is very true and a good point, however, in the earliest of times humans have been able to survive with out running water or electricity, or heat. While I may not consider living in the natural environment, it is very possible to do so. Also, humans still need nature and its natural resources. Where do you think our food and other necessities come from?ReplyDelete
Katie, I have read Huckleberry Finn, although it's a long time ago. I'm very fond of Mark Twain's writing. With a smile, he treated profoundly the big questions of life.ReplyDelete
As for nature versus culture, I hope I don't need to choose. Culture must learn from nature, since in a way culture is part of nature, too. Otherwise it could not exist.
