8vo - 22.5 x 15 cm.; xxiii - 306 pp. Black paper over boards with gilt lettering on the spine. In July of 1996, a five day meeting was held at the Abbey of Gethsemani in Kentucky and was attended by over 50 Buddhist and Christian religious - monks and nuns. This volume brings together many of the talks, presentations and reflections. An as-new and unused volume.
"Most of us are going camping and bringing our boats," said Baker as he and his team are headed to the annual Ely tournament beginning Friday, July 13. "It should be a fun weekend."
Baker's biggest catch isn't anticipated on the lake, but rather on the diamond. For the first time this summer, his boys should be fully rostered and healthy. Injuries, jobs, vacations and other sports have taken a toll on Baker's bunch, yet as we enter the dog days of July, Cloquet is counting on success.
The team is 4-4, but has wins over fellow district standouts Grand Rapids and Duluth Lakeview. Add in the fact they vied for VFW supremacy the past couple of summers and have been victors much of their lives, Baker is confident in his Cloquet crew to get to the American Legion state tournament for the first time since back in 1988.
"They're hungry for it," said Baker, who was a member of that late 80s team, before heading off for basic training. "They've won all the way through and are not used to losing."
That's much in part of the teenage boys he has. Recent graduates Cooper Grashorn, Noah Witte, Adam Luing and Parker Lundberg are all on the team, as well as Minnesota-Duluth commit Tim Pokornowski. Mix that with soon-to-be seniors Gavin Rasmussen, Noah Niemi and Baker's two boys, Nick and Jon, and Cloquet is as good as a contender as any.
Of the 16 boys on Baker's rosters, a majority started on Rick Norrgard's varsity team this spring, including everyday pitchers in Pokornowski, Rasmussen, Witte and Jon Baker. That makes them even more of a threat when being at full strength.
"If we're fully healthy, we're one of the strongest teams in the district," Baker said. "We're going to have to tighten up our defense, hit the ball and just get ready for the playoffs."
Meanwhile, the Cloquet VFW squad smiled their way to a split with Ordean East B on Tuesday, July 10, at Lake Park, including a 14-1 win in the nightcap that featured 10 hits in what coach Greg Thompson said was their best outing of the summer.
"The bats came alive," said Thompson, who also coaches a Cloquet intermediate team and is assisted by his son, Kaleb, and longtime volunteer Bruce Kahara. "It was much needed."
For a team with 20 players, they are currently 3-10, yet have a dozen league games left and districts July 30. Still, as with any team, the goal of summer ball is getting better.
"That's exactly what the program is geared toward," Thompson said. "And they're just a great bunch of kids."
What’s the point of a website without content? I keep trying to come up with things to put here that have actual meaning or value for an audience, instead of whatever I feel like posting. I may, from time to time, feel the need to rant openly about something that annoys me.
This site would have more things posted if I didn’t stop so often to ask myself “Who the hell cares what I think about that?” and “Why on earth would I want to post that? Seriously, who would even read it?”
I am on Facebook and some other sites, but I still prefer to have this site that I can call my own, that can’t mysteriously disappear if some company decides that their business plan is no longer a plan or a business.
This site has existed in some incarnation for over 10 years on this domain, and several years before that in other places. In that time it’s evolved from a simple page of links and random things into what you see here today. As you can tell, not a whole lot has changed.
Until now, this site was hand-coded using a plain old text editor. I would update it very rarely and then forget about it. I installed a new system that lets me just type away and post, so I can care more about content and less about coding. Hopefully this will lead to me updating a lot more often… But in reality I still end up ignoring it all too often.
Hey man, I say post away…I enjoy writing about various things, and have steered my personal site in that direction…I’ve been amazed at who rolls in on certain things, so at least a few read it if it’s even remotely relevant.
