Three children have died and 24 other people have been pulled from the water in a fraught overnight rescue mission after the yacht they were on capsized during July 4th celebrations. David Aurelino 12, Harley Treanor, 11, and eight-year-old Victoria Gaines were found in the sunken boat's cabin near Long Island's Oyster Bay - around 35 miles from New York City. Their tragic deaths came after the group of 27 were thrown into the water while watching fireworks from aboard the 34-foot Silverton vessel. Authorities are still investigating what caused the accident, but believe it could have been due to weather, overcrowding on the yacht or a wave from the wake of another boat.

"He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches."
"Being is substance and life; life manifests by movement; movement is perpetuated by equilibrium; equilibrium is therefore the law of immortality.
"The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... "Equality for equals, inequality for unequals" that would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, "Never make equal what is unequal."
