Mohamed Morsi's Presidential Decree Triggers Protest
Egyptian protesters gather in Tahrir Square, on November 23, 2012 in... News Photo2012,Arab Spring,Cairo,Conflict,Egypt,Horizontal,Islam,Middle East,Politics,Protest,Protestor,Tahrir Square - CairoPhotographer Ed GilesCollection: Getty Images News 2012 Ed GilesCAIRO, EGYPT - NOVEMBER 23: Egyptian protesters gather in Tahrir Square, on November 23, 2012 in Cairo, Egypt. Thousands of Egyptian protesters gathered in central Cairo's Tahrir Square on Friday to protest against a new constitutional declaration issued yesterday by Egyptian president Mohammed Morsi, giving him sweeping powers, and extending the period of deadline for the drafting of Egypt's new constitution by two months. The seven-article declaration renders the president's decrees and laws immune from appeal or cancellation. It also protects both Egypt's Shura Council and Islamist-dominated Constituent Assembly from dissolution by the country's judicial authorities. The demonstration follows a week of violent protests in central Cairo, commemorating one year since a series of deadly protests named 'Mohammed Mahmoud', after the street they took place in, during November 2011.

At first blush, the task of Cumberland and Woonsocket laying the groundwork for the season's biggest game doesn't seem entirely daunting – especially since we're referencing two squads that staged a gridiron tussle merely eight days ago.
With only three days between the semifinals and Sunday's Division II Super Bowl, the art of familiarity helps to take a little strain off of the preparation process. Time has become a valuable commodity, and if you're going to step into the ring of fire, what better opponent to have than someone where introductions are not required?
"It's fresh in our minds right now," stated Cumberland head coach Chris Skurka. "Even the film exchange, we would be exchanging the same Thanksgiving film."
Added Woonsocket mentor Carnell Henderson: "It's a bonus since we just prepared for Cumberland a few weeks ago."
With a slight chuckle, Henderson referred to the 32-0 Turkey Day whipping Cumberland handed his crew upon adding, "Whatever we prepared for, it really didn't work out in our favor, so we've got to come up with something different this go-around."
The very idea of deviating from the same script that has been in place since training camp commenced in mid-August is one that's virtually impossible at this late juncture. Sure, the opportunity to make a slight tweak here or there exists, but as Henderson pointed out, now is not the time to reinvent the wheel.
"We've already stressed the things that we could or should have done, which is part of the process of getting ready for your next opponent," he stated. "If there are some areas of weakness that we feel we need to correct, you only have a short period to do that. At this time of year, you go with what works and try to get the kids ready to do what they do well and – hopefully – they can go out and execute on Sunday.
"The week is truly condensed, but all the teams participating in the Super Bowls this weekend, there's not much more you can do," Henderson continued. "All of these teams are still playing because they did the right thing throughout the season and are comfortable with what they do. There might be a little something you pull out of the playbook, but it builds off of something else."
From Woonsocket's perspective, one area that figures to be addressed is slowing down a Cumberland defensive line that registered five sacks of quarterback Brett Bouchard on Thanksgiving. However, when Henderson and his coaches break down the film of Cumberland's 48-14 semifinal-round win over West Warwick, they'll notice the Clippers' secondary was also imposing; that unit picked off Wizards quarterback Kody Greenhalgh three times in the first half Wednesday night.
"The kids feel like they have another opportunity," Henderson said. "After losing to Johnston and Mount Hope earlier in the season, they always looked to get back after it. We're fortunate to ride the journey right to the end; it just so happens that it's Cumberland that we're playing against."
Taking the football portion out of the equation, here you have two schools that are separated by roughly five miles and have been waging Thanksgiving wars for 49 years. The latest chapter will be added come Sunday at East Greenwich's Nick Carcieri Field.
"Mr. (Woonsocket athletic director George) Nasuti and I were talking, and I don't know if Cumberland and Woonsocket have played for all the marbles. Thanksgiving was always the rival game," Henderson stated when asked if could recall of any playoff encounters between the Villa Novans and Clippers. "With (Cumberland) being the team that we play for the state championship, it's a great opportunity for both communities."
"It's never happened that you face your [holiday] rival in the Super Bowl, so it's going to be interesting," remarked Skurka.

A Game of Thrones (A Song of Ice and Fire #1)by George R. R. Martin
Synopses & Reviews
From Powells.com:
If you're a "read-the-book-first" type, you might want to get started now on George R. R. Martin's Song of Ice and Fire series. HBO has optioned the first book, A Game of Thrones, as a series, and 10 episodes are slated to begin filming in Ireland in fall 2009. (The current plan is to adapt one book per season.) What's more, independent game developer Cyanide Studios has acquired an exclusive option to develop the books as a series of video games, starting with (you guessed it) A Game of Thrones.
Publisher Comments:
Here is the first volume in George R. R. Martin's magnificent cycle of novels that includes A Clash of Kings and A Storm of Swords. As a whole, this series comprises a genuine masterpiece of modern fantasy, bringing together the best the genre has to offer. Magic, mystery, intrigue, romance, and adventure fill these pages and transport us to a world unlike any we have ever experienced. Already hailed as a classic, George R. R. Martin's stunning series is destined to stand as one of the great achievements of imaginative fiction.
A Game of Thrones
Long ago, in a time forgotten, a preternatural event threw the seasons out of balance. In a land where summers can last decades and winters a lifetime, trouble is brewing. The cold is returning, and in the frozen wastes to the north of Winterfell, sinister and supernatural forces are massing beyond the kingdom's protective Wall. At the center of the conflict lie the Starks of Winterfell, a family as harsh and unyielding as the land they were born to. Sweeping from a land of brutal cold to a distant summertime kingdom of epicurean plenty, here is a tale of lords and ladies, soldiers and sorcerers, assassins and bastards, who come together in a time of grim omens.
Here an enigmatic band of warriors bear swords of no human metal; a tribe of fierce wildlings carry men off into madness; a cruel young dragon prince barters his sister to win back his throne; and a determined woman undertakes the most treacherous of journeys. Amid plots and counterplots, tragedy and betrayal, victory and terror, the fate of the Starks, their allies, and their enemies hangs perilously in the balance, as each endeavors to win that deadliest of conflicts: the game of thrones.

A Game of Thrones is a contemporary masterpiece of fantasy.
The cold is returning to Winterfell, where summers can last decades and winters a lifetime A time of conflict has arisen in the Stark family, as they are pulled from the safety of their home into a whirlpool of tragedy, betrayal, assassination, plots and counterplots. Each decision and action carries with it the potential for conflict as several prominent families, comprised of lords, ladies, soldiers, sorcerers, assassins and bastards, are pulled together in the most deadly game of all — the game of thrones.
About the Author
George R.R. Martin sold his first story in 1971 and has been writing professionally ever since. He has written fantasy, horror, and science fiction, and for his sins spent ten years in Hollywood as a writer/producer, working on Twilight Zone, Beauty and the Beast, and various feature films and television pilots that were never made. In the mid 90's he returned to prose, his first love, and began work on his epic fantasy series A Song of Ice and Fire. He has been in the Seven Kingdoms ever since. Whenever he's allowed to leave, he returns to Santa Fe, New Mexico, where he lives with the lovely Parris, a big white dog called Mischa, and two cats named Augustus and Caligula who think they run the place.

Friday, March 15, 2013
NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Spring break starts this weekend on the Lipscomb campus, but the Lady Bisons softball team will not have a chance to relax.
Saturday at 2 p.m. the Lady Bisons, 10-11, 1-2, will face Kennesaw State, 18-3, 2-0, in an Atlantic Sun doubleheader at Draper Diamond. Sunday the two teams will play a single game at 2.
Junior Amanda Henderson and senior Abby Mixon are the aces of the Kennesaw State pitching staff. Henderson is 10-0 this season with a 1.03 earned run average, second in the A-Sun. She leads the conference in strikeouts with 95.
Mixon is 7-2 with a 1.67 ERA. She has struck out 59 batters in 54.1 innings.
Henderson has recorded four shutouts and Mixon has added three.
"Kennesaw State pitches extremely well," Ryman said. "We have our work cut out for us offensively.
"They are two of the toughest pitchers we are going to face in conference games. They both move the ball well. They both throw hard. We are going to have to move runners when we need to and put the ball in play and make things happen."
Offensively, designated player Sharon Swanson leads Kennesaw State with a .388 batting average, six home runs, five doubles and 17 runs batted in.
"Overall, it is a really well put together team," Ryman said. "Coach Scott Whitlock is in his last year. He is a hall of famer and is legendary in the softball world. It is going to be a big challenge."
The Lady Bisons combined for 23 runs and 26 hits Wednesday in a doubleheader sweep of Austin Peay on the road. The offensive outburst was a solid confidence boost for the players and for Ryman.
"We need to be firing on all cylinders this weekend," Ryman said.
Kelsey Cartwright, who has been sidelined for the last five games with an injury, leads the Lady Bisons in hitting with a .378 average. She is fourth in the A-Sun with an .800 slugging percentage.
Also batting over .300 are Brittany Elmore (.342) and Mickey Bell (.302). Elmore is tied for the conference lead in stolen bases with 12.
Kristen Sturdivant is ranked eighth in home runs with five.
Heather Parker leads the Lady Bisons pitching staff with a 1.94 earned run average. Parker, 3-6, has 52 strikeouts in 68.2 innings. Parker is tied for ninth in strikeouts in the A-Sun. Parker is tied for third in the conference in complete games with six and tied for fourth in relief appearances with seven.
Tanner Sanders, with two victories against Austin Peay Wednesday, is 6-3 with a 3.02 ERA. She has 54 strikeouts in 55.2 innings. She is tied for seventh in the conference in strikeouts. Her 26 strikeouts looking are second in the conference behind Kennesaw State's Henderson with 28.
Wednesday the Lady Bisons will play a make-up doubleheader with Tennessee Tech from the Ohio Valley Conference. The games replace some of the games that were lost due to weather during the Lady Bisons Purple and Gold Challenge. The first game starts at 4 with the nightcap scheduled for 6.
The home stand will continue for the Lady Bisons March 23 and 24 when North Florida visits for an A-Sun series. On March 27 the Lady Bisons will be visited by Southeastern Conference foe Kentucky at 6.

Coconut Secret
Raw Coconut Flour
This raw Coconut Flour is made in small batches from unheated coconut meat and dried using a proprietary tumbler-dry method. Coconut flour is gluten-free, very low carb, actually lowers the calorie content of food, contains 40% dietary fiber, promotes lipid oxidation (helps burn fat), aids in digestive health, and helps balance blood sugar levels.
Use for baking, to thicken gravy, or as a supplement to super-boost fiber content in smoothies and any recipe! Coconut flour readily absorbs moisture, so it's suggested that you blend with other flours at a ratio of 1/4 cup coconut flour to 3/4 cups alternate flour. A second popular option for those wishing to use 100% coconut flour, is the addition of eggs at a ratio of 4 eggs to 1/2 cup flour. Since coconut flour is gluten-free, eggs act as a gluten substitute in any recipe. It can also be helpful to increase the liquid content in coconut flour recipes by adding an extra 1-to-1 ratio of liquid per equal amount of flour.

Transforming Our Economic System: From Egocentric Domination to Ecocentric Real Wealth
A reoccurring theme has been emerging in conversations with my friends and colleagues: our economic system.
Does our current economic system work? Who does it serve? Who is it damaging? Is it sustainable? Is there a better way? Can the system be changed?
I've wrestled with the underlying purpose of our financial structure for sometime. From an ecological and social justice perspective, I've never quite understood why we strive for affluence to the detriment of the environment and to the majority of the world's people.
According to statistics from GlobalIssues.org and The World Bank, almost half of the world—more than three billion people—live on less than $2.50 USD a day. Additionally, "more than 80 percent of the world's population lives in countries where income differentials are widening," GlobalIssues.org noted.
In 2007, Forbes magazine scouted out 946 billionaires across the globe—from Mumbi to Serbia to Madrid to Cyprus. "Ingenuity, not industry, is the common characteristic" among the rich, the article noted.
"These folks made money in everything from media and real estate to coffee, dumplings and ethanol," according to Forbes. "Two-thirds of [2006's] billionaires are richer. Only 17 percent are poorer, including 32 who fell below the billion-dollar mark. The billionaires' combined net worth climbed by $900 billion to $3.5 trillion. That equates to $3.6 billion apiece."
Regardless of Forbes boasting, wealth is not proven to make us happier, which annuls any happiness argument for attaining material prosperity.
David Korten, a former Harvard Business School professor and author of the 2010 book Agenda for a New Economy: From Phantom Wealth to Real Wealth, refers to the current financial system as "structural violence." Korten posits that violence is built into the very structure of our dominant institutions such as our financial markets, economic institutions, global corporations, and political system.
Structural violence ensues when information and technology are monopolized by a few and then held ransom to people who may need it; when access to food, water, and other natural resources are controlled by those in power; when quality education is unequally distributed; when political agenda's are prejudiced by money markets, and so forth.
In a PeaceWeek 2011 recording titled The Peace Economy, Korten said, "The very structure of our economic institutions are devoted solely to maximizing financial return without regard to the human and natural consequences. ...These [economic institutions] are structurally designed to destroy the environment, to concentrate wealth to the exclusion of the majority of the world's people, and to corrupt even our democratic political systems by making them captive to financial interests rather than to human interests."
A dominator economy is set up as winner-takes-all competition for power and for the world's wealth. The wealthy get richer and those in power gain greater control. The middle class, however, disappears. The poor get more destitute and the biosphere suffers massive long-term devastation.
Eventually, we all lose. Korten submits, "It's a system that's not only guaranteed to spread violence, but ultimately to self-destruct."
The good news is we have alternatives. The first step towards change is to understand how the system works and then, as Korten said, "recognize that there's nothing inevitable about it. It's a result of human choice."
We can change our story. Imagine an ecocentric "ecological economy" where the purpose is to balance human needs with biosphere needs. Imagine a system of self-organization, self-reliance, self-determination, and collaboration. Imagine a system that values an ecological sense of self and reciprocity with Earth.
Korten explained, "Part of the ideal is a world in which every person is participating in the ownership of productive resources and productive enterprise in their homes. Not in the abstract sense of a socialist system, but in the very real sense of a community based system where you actually have an ownership stake in real enterprises, like local farms in which your local livelihood depends."
In this new story, "real wealth" is life, happiness, loving families, health, caring communities, and life-generating environments. "Money is just an account accrue," Korten said. "It's just a number and should not be confused with the real wealth of land and talents, happy healthy children. Peace is a real wealth."
In his 2010 book Civilizing the Economy: A New Economics of Provision, author Marvin Brown wrote, "If we are to replace property relations with civic relations, then we need to replace the exclusive focus on individual gain with a relational notion of reciprocity as the basis for the economy. We need to restore reciprocity as the moral foundation for making provisions."
Brown added that when we think about the ethical aspect of our economic framework, "the ethical is largely located either in the individual persons, or in relationships among persons outside the market. As long as we interpret persons and the planet as property, we will continue to lose valuable time that we need to redirect our economy toward a just and sustainable future."
Brown noted, "Civil society includes all of us as global citizens."
Both Korten and Brown agree that our new story can redefine value from money to life. The new story can be grounded in human freedom or dignity and civic membership instead of property; it can focus on local markets and ecological integrity.
Clearly, as stated by the New Economy Working Group, this new system "will require an accountable, service-oriented system of money, banking, and finance based on values, rules, and institutions very different than those currently in place."
Business author and consultant Peter Block once said, "The system comes to know itself both as it is and as it can be."
My hope is that we can rally around what it can be. My hope is that we choose to change our story.

The Utah Supreme Court has unanimously ruled that residents opposing a Wal-Mart store in Sandy won the right to conduct a citywide referendum on the dispute.
The state's high court indicated that the group of local residents fighting the development collected an adequate number signatures from Sandy citizens to force a referendum on a zoning change that would allow locating a Wal-Mart on a 107-acre former gravel pit at 1000 East and 9400 South.
The court's five to zero decision apparently means that registered voters residing at locations across the state should have an easier time getting issues placed on election ballots, potentially bolstering grassroots efforts, pointed out the latest Trendlines report compiled by the Utah Department of Workforce Services.
Addressing a second matter of local interest, the report confirmed that Zions has announced that the Salt Lake based company has agreed to buy Houston-based Amegy Bancorp in a deal valued at $1.7 billion in cash and stock.
The acquisition, Zions' largest single purchase, will give the company entry into the rapidly growing Texas market.
According to the agreement, the transaction includes $600 million in cash and approximately 14.25 million Zions stock shares.
Ending July 2, the four-week average of initial unemployment insurance claims filed by Utahns registered at 1,155.
The 2005 filings represent a decrease of 1 percent from the four-week average of 1,170 claims reported last year. The number of all initial claims filed during the week totaled 1,229.
At the national level, hiring across the country picked up slightly in June with employers adding 146,000 jobs helping to push the United States unemployment rate down to 5 percent, the lowest level posted in nearly four years, indicated the Trendlines report.
The modest payroll gain of 146,000 jobs created at locations throughout the U.S. in June was up from 104,000 employment positions created in May, noted the Trendlines report.
However, economists had forecast an increase of around 195,000 jobs nationwide during the last month.
On a negative note, the number of displaced American workers signing up for unemployment benefits climbed last week.
The increase was primarily a reflection of layoffs related to temporary shutdowns at auto plants and school closings.
Even with the rise, the latest report on unemployment claims completed by the U.S. Labor Department suggested that the American labor market continues to post improvements.
New applications filed for unemployment insurance increased by 7,000 to reach 319,000 for the week.
On the positive side of the spectrum, the dollar rose against the euro to the highest level witnessed in nearly 14 months and hit multi-month highs against other currencies, including the Japanese yen.
The dollar was up 10 percent against a basket of major currencies in 2005, according to the U.S. Federal Reserve.
The main factor driving the dollar's gain continues to be the comparative strength of the U.S. economy, particularly in relation to the much weaker European economy.
The average retail price for gasoline climbed to within a few pennies of the all-time high, while the cost for diesel fuel hit a new record, the government reported.

A versatile modern classic with a new finish, neck shape, and tremolo.
Named after its versatile pickup configuration (3 pickups paired with a 5-way blade switch), the NF3 utilizes the modern pickup technology of PRS Narrowfield pickups. Narrowfields use the same wire as PRS' coveted 57/08 pickups, but are narrower pole to pole and deeper front to back. The result is a new-sounding pickup system with exceptional clarity. Paired with a "pattern regular" bolt-on neck and flat body design, the NF3 is a modern classic.
The NF3 incorporates the following new features:
V12 Finish
Finish should enhance the look, sound, and feel of a guitar by accentuating the wood's inherent beauty and feel without hindering its natural resonance. And PRS Guitars' new "V12" finish does just that. Introduced at Experience PRS 2010, "V12" is a very thin, hard, and clear finish that will not crack or react with thinners. After roughly 12 years in development, it is halfway between acrylic and nitro but with a classic feel all its own. "PRS models with this new finish feel like old instruments," said Paul Reed Smith.
Pattern Regular Neck Shape
Neck shapes have always been a high priority for PRS and a hallmark of their quality. A guitar should feel comfortable, like "home," as soon as you pick it up, and the neck is paramount to that connection. The new "Pattern Regular" neck shape is similar to the traditional PRS regular neck found on guitars made in the late '80s at PRS' former Virginia Avenue location.
This new neck shape reflects modern tooling and programming that allows PRS to even more preciously shape and consistently reproduce their necks.
PRS Tremolo with Steel Components
The bridge plays a crucial role in the tone of a guitar by transferring the string's vibrations to the tonewood. When executed well, the bridge will enhance the wood's natural resonance. The PRS Tremolo with steel components offers a clear, expansive tone that sounds especially pleasing in guitars with single-coils. Includes case.

Comments about PRS NF3 Maple Neck Electric Guitar:
Most versatile guitar I've ever played !!!
Has a mixture of super Stratocaster type sounds as well as very Gibsonesque type tones !!!
The neck is very comfortable and fast playing, most Gibson and Fender fans should be fairly happy with the feel of the neck !

Comments about PRS NF3 Maple Neck Electric Guitar:
The guitar has a ground loop noise, and is advertised as dead quiet, the end of frets has unfilled gaps, all of this unacceptable in a guitar of this price.
I emailed PRS and they suggest to check the cable that goes to the tremolo, everything is connected but still the noise.
If you can live will these problems paying that much, this is a phenomenal guitar.
I sent it back and waiting for the new one to see if it's the same quality or better.
Comments about PRS NF3 Maple Neck Electric Guitar:
Nice playing guitar, nice sound but let down by fret install
Great features, pickups sound like a mix of single coil, mini hum and P-90
There were multiple gaps where the fret tangs install against the fretboard that made me think for this price guitar that's unacceptable.
Overall nice guitar, not sure if gaps are more noticable on maple board (what I ordered) compared to the rosewood board. But I think in this pricepoint they would have used filler to diminish the appearance of the gaps or had better slots cut for frets.

Here's the bad news about child abduction homicides: 3 out of 4 kids are dead within 3 hours. The good news is that Utah's AMBER Alert gives kids a fighting chance.
On Jan. 13, National AMBER Alert Day, Attorney General Mark Shurtleff and UDOT Executive Director John Njord launched an aggressive public information campaign to get that message out to law enforcement officers, reporters and the public.
"We can never become complacent when it comes to abducted children. Every Utahn needs to get involved quickly when an AMBER Alert goes out and give kids a fighting chance," said Attorney General Mark Shurtleff
Every Utah law enforcement agency and media outlet will soon receive break room posters that display the deadly child abduction homicide statistics and offer detailed instructions on what law enforcement and the media should do during an AMBER Alert. The message will also be reinforced by a statewide radio campaign produced by UDOT and the Utah Broadcasters Association.
"UDOT has been a pioneer by posting AMBER Alerts on highway signs, highway advisory radio transmitters and the 511 travel information line. This radio campaign will help remind everyone what's at stake when a child is taken," said Executive Director John Njord.
Law enforcement agencies and media outlets will also receive AMBER Alert training DVDs and break room posters explaining what to do when an Endangered Person Advisory is initiated. The Endangered Person Advisory is a new alert for missing people who do not meet the criteria for an AMBER Alert. It should be noted that these statistics are strictly for child abduction homicides and not all child kidnappings end in death.
Rick and Rachael Norton, Elaine Runyan-Simmons, Ed Smart, Katie Whitney all have gone through the ordeal of having their child taken and they are all lending their voices to support Utah's AMBER Alert Plan and the public education campaign. The Jan. 15 press conference also included the following announcements:
The Attorney General's Office has established a statewide Child Abduction Response Team (CART). The office will also coordinate and encourage local law enforcement agencies to set up regional CART teams. These specialized teams follow a nationally developed model and can assist other agencies when a child is missing or abducted. The CART training is being offered in numerous cities but will also be held in Salt Lake City on June 4-8. Law enforcement agencies can sign up for the classes at www.amber-net.org.
Utah Rep. Paul Nuenschwander and Sen. Jon Greiner are sponsoring legislation that will make it easier for businesses and individuals to make charitable contributions to Utah's AMBER Alert Plan and other anti-crime initiatives.
The Utah Bureau of Criminal Identification (BCI) is sending applications to all Utah elementary schools so 5th graders can participate in the National Missing Children's Day Poster Contest. The winner will be honored in Washington, D.C. Contest details can be found at http://dept.fvtc.edu/ojjdp/postercontest.html.
The eighth test of Utah's AMBER Plan took place on Jan. 15. The tests will be conducted each year on January 15, National AMBER Alert Day and August 26, the anniversary of the day three-year-old Rachael Runyan was kidnapped near her home in Sunset in 1982. This was also the first test of the Emergency Alert System that is being initiated by BCI instead of KSL-Radio, the primary EAS provider for Utah.

POTSDAM New York Secretary of State Cesar A. Perales praised the villages commitment to waterfront beautification and lauded state and local partnerships at a ceremonial ground breaking Wednesday morning, marking the start of construction for a slew of renovations to Ives Park.
If we could get more people up to the north country they will fall in love with it and come back again and again, he said.
A number of state and local officials gathered at the parks riverside gazebo for the event.
The project will bring a bevy of improvements to the park. The riverside walkway will be widened and extended, vegetation will be planted along the water to discourage geese and new lighting will be installed.
In addition, a floating dock will be built to use as a canoe and kayak launch.
Its already beautiful. Were just going to make it more beautiful, said Mayor Steven W. Yurgartis.
The project will cost about $250,000 to complete, and is scheduled to be finished in July. The village of Potsdam will provide $50,000 toward the work, mostly in equipment use and in-kind services instead of cash. The state will provide the remaining $200,000.
This money also includes the funds to design an open-air shelter for the Potsdam Farmers Market along with a playground, although additional funds will be needed before these improvements can be built.
Village leaders hope these renovations will play into Potsdams long-term effort to create an attractive waterfront community that will draw both tourists and residents.
Mr. Perales is one of five judges who determine how the states Regional Economic Development Council funds are distributed, and helped secure the money for Ives Park. He said a focus on tourism and culture has proven successful in places like Lake George, and hopes to see the same thing happen in north country communities.
Its going to make a big difference, he said.
He spoke about the states commitment to local partnerships, an initiative that began three years ago with the creation of the regional economic development councils.
Its a fabulous opportunity for a New York City kid like me to see how beautiful New York is, and help to revitalize it.
Anthony G. Collins, president of Clarkson University and cochairman of the North Country Regional Economic Development Council, spoke at the groundbreaking, calling the project a symbol of increased cooperation between the state and local communities.
Its really a sign of the future of what can be done with state and regional partnerships, he said.
After leaving Potsdam, Mr. Perales visited Tupper Lake to learn more about maple sugar production in New York.

Wednesday, May 06, 2009DELAND, Fla. _ The Lipscomb Lady Bisons have set new school records for most wins, most shutouts and fewest losses. They didn't win the Atlantic Sun regular season championship this season, something they managed to do last season, but they still have one goal to pursue _ an NCAA tournament berth.
The Lady Bisons are here at Patricia Wilson Field on the campus of Stetson University for the third year in a row in the Atlantic Sun Conference Softball Tournament. This is the fourth time in the last five years that the Lady Bisons have participated in the tournament. The winner gets an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament, a goal that has eluded the Lady Bisons in those previous four trips.
"The good part is that we did play Stetson a couple of weeks ago and that we played in the heat there," said Lady Bisons coach Kristin Peck. "We have been on their field and know the surface. It is a nice field and an atmosphere we feel very comfortable in. I think that will be a plus."
This time around the Lady Bisons, 37-12, 15-5 in the A-Sun, are the No. 2 seed. They will face ETSU, 27-26, 6-14 in the conference, the No. 5 seed, Thursday morning at 10 in the first round of the double elimination tournament. Win or lose they will play one more game Thursday.
The Lady Bisons beat ETSU 3-0 and 3-1 on the road in Johnson City on April 10. They are 3-6 overall against the Lady Buccaneers in the NCAA era.
"We are very familiar with ETSU," said Peck. "We have faced them in the tournament before. They have a good pitcher in Marissa Hardy. We saw her twice this season. She gives them a chance to win every time she throws.
"Offensively, they have some speed. When they get on base they push the issue. We are going to have to really step up our game defensively. We will have to be alert and be ready to make plays. They definitely present some challenges."
Last year the Lady Bisons were the No. 1 seed. In many ways Peck likes being No. 2 this time around.
"We found out last year that seeding doesn't really mean lot once you get to the tournament," said Peck. "This is kind of when the gloves are off and everyone is fighting to the championship.
"It means a lot to me that we are the No. 2 seed. It means a lot to our team that we have worked hard enough and gotten it done all year long to be in this position. But it is a matter of getting it done right now."
The Lady Bisons don't have a senior on the team. Four freshmen have been playing key roles with the team this season, including right-handed pitcher Whitney Kiihnl, the A-Sun Freshman of the Year. Peck isn't making a big deal of the tournament for the freshmen.
"Our older players, by their actions are going to show the younger players what this is all about," said Peck. "It doesn't matter what you have done all year long. It is a matter of what you do right now.
"Everybody is turning it up a notch. Everybody is trying to gain as many advantages they can in every game."
The Lady Bisons enter the tournament with the strongest pitching staff they have ever assembled in Kiihnl, Alaina Jacobson and Christen Campbell.
"I guess, if we have had a workhorse, it has been Whitney," said Peck. "But Alaina and Christen have thrown a lot of innings as well. It is very unique to have a staff that has put up the stats that they have and for all three to have won 10-plus games.
"Any of the three can get it done. That is a huge advantage for us as opposed to the past."
Peck is expecting either tight ballgames, where both teams score a lot of runs, or pitchers' duels.
"Whoever makes the fewest mistakes is going to win," said Peck. "We have seen that with several teams we have faced this year already."
Despite the success of the Lady Bisons this season, Peck is reminding all of her players that in the tournament everyone starts at 0-0.
"We are not going to just walk out on the field and beat anybody," said Peck. "We have to step on the field, play our game and bring an intensity and cut-throat attitude."
