Gwynne Forster was born in North Carolina, grew up in Washington, D.C., and has lived, studied and worked in New York City ever since she became voting age. She considers herself a humanitarian, a perspective that she inherited from her mother, a high school principal, and which she also attributes to her work and education in the social sciences, more specifically, demography. Her fiction writing reflects her training in the sociology of the family and her understanding of interpersonal relations. It should not be surprising, then, that quite a few of Gwynne's novels and novellas are set within the context of the family.
Gwynne Forster is a national bestselling and award-winning author of six novels of general fiction, twenty-eight romance novels and six novellas. All of her mainstream novels and several of her romance novels have been featured in Black Expressions magazine. When Twilight Comes,her first mainstream novel, was featured on the magazine's cover, and it also remained on the Essence magazine list of bestsellers for several months. Her mainstream novel, Getting Some of Her Own, was published in August 2007 to excellent reviews, and Romantic Times magazine nominated the book for an award as best African American romance 2007. eHarlequin.com's weekly newsletter listed Gwynne's romance, Forbidden Temptation, as one of Harlequin's ten best books of 2007. She receives fan letters daily, praising her Kimani Press romance, Drive Me Wild. The highly acclaimed mainstream novel, When You Dance With the Devil, published in August 2006, attracted media attention.
Among her many awards and forms of recognition, Gwynne is most proud of her election in 2006 to the Affaire de Coeur magazine Hall of Fame, the Lifetime Achievement Award given to her by Romantic Times magazine in 2007 and her selection by Harlequin to participate in their Warm Hands, Warm Hearts project with the St. June Children's Research Hospital..
The following novels were nominated by Affaire de Coeur magazine for "best romance novel of the year with an African American hero and heroine:" Ecstasy, Obsession, Naked Soul, Against the Wind, Fools Rush In, Swept Away, Secret Desire, and Scarlet Woman. Winners of the award were: Ecstasy, Naked Soul, Fools Rush In, Swept Away, and Against the Wind.
Readers of Affaire de Coeur magazine named Gwynne one of Top Ten Favorite Authors for the years 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2006, and one of five outstanding achievers in 1998.
Rendezvous magazine voted Secret Desire "Rose Bud of the month" for November 2003.
The 2001 Gold Pin Award from Black Writers Reunion and Conference went to Beyond Desire, one of Gwynne's most celebrated books. Doubleday Book Club and Literary Guild selected Beyond Desire and used the book to start the Black Expressions Book Club.
Romance in Color Web site gave its 1999 Award of Excellence to Against the Wind and voted Gwynne author of the year. The site voted Flying High runner-up to best romance of the year, 2003, and gave it honorable mention.
Romance Slam Jam 2000 nominated Gwynne for the Vivian Stephens Lifetime Achievement Award. Romance Slam Jam 2001 gave Gwynne an Emma Award for her novella, "Learning to Love," in the anthology Going to the Chapel. Romance Slam Jam 2003 nominated Blues From Down Deep for an Emma Award as best mainstream novel.
Fiction writing is Gwynne Forster's second career. She holds bachelors and masters degrees in sociology, a masters degree in economics/demography and has additional graduate credits in journalism. As a demographer, she is widely published. She is formerly chief of (non-medical) research in fertility and family planning in the Population Division of the United Nations in New York and served for four years as chairperson of the International Programme Committee of the International Planned Parenthood Federation (London, England). These positions took her on official business to sixty-three developed and developing countries. Gwynne sings in her church choir, loves to entertain and is a museum hopper, gourmet cook and avid gardener. She enjoys classical music, opera, jazz and blues with her husband with whom she lives in New York City.
She is represented by the Steel-Perkins Literary Agency, 26 Island Lane, Canandaigua, NY 14424. Reach Gwynne at P.O. Box 45, New York, N.Y. 10044, or by e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Topiramate for Epilepsy
|Generic Name
|Brand Name
Topiramate comes in tablets and capsules, which can be opened and sprinkled on food.
Why It Is Used
Topiramate may be used alone or in combination with other antiepileptic drugs to control partial seizures in children. It may also be used alone to treat children and adults with newly diagnosed epilepsy and generalized tonic-clonic seizures.
How Well It Works
Topiramate works to control partial and generalized tonic-clonic seizures.1
It may also help control seizures caused by Lennox-Gastaut syndrome.2
Side Effects
Common side effects of topiramate include:
- Drowsiness.
- Dizziness.
- Fatigue.
- Lack of coordination.
- Loss of appetite.
- Inability to concentrate or speak clearly.
- Nervousness.
Topiramate has been linked in a small number of people to a potentially life-threatening condition called metabolic acidosis. Symptoms of metabolic acidosis include fatigue, lack of appetite, and rapid breathing (hyperventilation). If left untreated, metabolic acidosis can lead to death.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued a warning on antiepileptic medicines and the risk of suicide and suicidal thoughts. The FDA does not recommend that people stop using these medicines. Instead, people who take antiepileptic medicine should be watched closely for warning signs of suicide. People who take antiepileptic medicine and who are worried about this side effect should talk to a doctor.
See Drug Reference for a full list of side effects. (Drug Reference is not available in all systems.)
What To Think About
It may take time and careful, controlled adjustments by you and your doctor to find the combination, schedule, and dosing of medicine to best manage your epilepsy. The goal is to prevent seizures while causing as few side effects as possible. After you and your doctor figure out the medicine program that works best for you, make sure to follow your program exactly as prescribed.
- Side effects. Topiramate is tolerated well by most people and has few serious side effects. But a small number of people who take the drug may develop kidney stones, decreased sweating with increased body temperature, or a type of glaucoma. Another warning links topiramate use to metabolic acidosis in some people.
- Drug interactions. Many medicines for epilepsy can interact with other medicines you may be taking. This means that your epilepsy medicine may not work as well, or it may affect the way another medicine you are taking works. Some of these interactions can be dangerous. Make sure to tell your doctor about all the medicines, herbal pills, and dietary supplements you are taking. Topiramate may make birth control pills less effective. A woman taking topiramate may need to use another method of birth control to reduce her chances of becoming pregnant.
- Risk of birth defects. All medicines for epilepsy have some risk of birth defects. But the risk of birth defects needs to be carefully compared to other risks to the baby if the mother stops taking her epilepsy medicine. If you are thinking about becoming pregnant, be sure to plan ahead and talk with your doctor about the benefits and risks of taking epilepsy medicine during your pregnancy. It you are already pregnant, it is not too late. The best thing to do is talk to your doctor about your pregnancy before you make any changes to the medicines you are taking.
- Other concerns. For some people, topiramate may cause side effects or carry risks that are not yet fully known. Report any unexpected side effects or problems to your doctor.

Several Cabinet ministers and ruling party CCM Members of Parliament were forced to join forces as they toiled to the maximum to tackle strong arguments from Shadow minister for Constitution and Legal Affairs, Tundu Lissu before passing the Judicial Administration Bill 2011.
Lissu, also an official spokesperson of the Opposition camp in the House faulted several provisions in the Bill as the Parliament convened as a Parliamentary Committee to go through all sections.
The sections which produced what could be termed as 'drama' were those deemed by Lissu and the Opposition camp as those interfering with the independence and impartiality of the Judiciary.
A total of four cabinet ministers, Attorney General and two CCM MPs hit back at Lissu, but the latter was resolute as a fighter and Speaker Anne Makinda hailed him for his impressive debating skills.
Lissu proposed that all such provisions be amended or removed from the bill so as to leave all matters related to the Judiciary be dealt with by the Judiciary itself through its formal mechanism.
Initially it appeared smooth-sailing but the mood changed after a few verbal exchanges between Lissu who is also MP for Singida East constituent on one hand and the Attorney General Fredrick Werema and Minister for Constitution and Legal Affairs Ms Celina Kombani on the other.
The drama intensified when it came to section 7, 8, 52 and 53 which provide for the establishment of the post of Chief Court Administrator, the qualifications for the post as well as terms and conditions.
While Tundu Lissu proposed that the appointee for the post should be endorsed by the Parliament, the AG and Minister Kombani argued that the President should remain the appointing authority and that there was no need for the appointee to be endorsed by any of other organ.
The current Constitution gives the President powers to make key appointments, including that of the Chief Justice.
AG also told Lissu to bear in mind that the President was also head of State and Commander- in- Chief.
The argument prompted Lissu to reply that his objective was to bring the imperial presidency to an end. He said such kind of presidency is where the President has excessive power to make key appointments without requirement for endorsement.
Lissu added that he neither intended to stop the president from being Commander- in- Chief nor moving a motion for his impeachment.
The issue of the Judiciary Services Commission and its function and powers also raised a storm, prompting ex-AG Andrew Chenge to intervene. Lissu then conceded that Chenge's point was valid.
Another area which was debated at length was the qualification of the Chief Court Administrator.
Lissu proposed that apart from administration and finance qualifications and experience as drafted in the bill the candidate was supposed to have a legal background to make him more knowledgeable on the judiciary system, but the AG and minister Kombani disagreed.
The gland finale came on the passing of section 46, which proposed the establishment of disciplinary committees at various levels from national, regional and district levels.
Tundu, who several times reminded the House to consider keenly that proposed Law was going to affect the entire Judiciary and the nation at large, argued that the committee should not involve Regional Commissioners and District Commissioners who he termed as politicians representing the ruling party CCM.
He reminded fellow legislators that those officials also sat on the party's regional and district political committees. Proposing, instead, that members should be professional s from Tanganyika law society and the Attorney General's Chambers.
Then George Simbachawene CCM MP for Kibakwe said there was nothing bad in that practice.
After lengthy arguments the Speaker asked the House to know who supported Lissu's motion and those who opposed. The voices of the two sides almost tied and Zitto Kabwe, Kigoma (North, Chadema) requested that the views of each MP should be sought separately.
Those who opposed Lissu emerged winners by 152 votes against 69 supporters as 128 MPs were absent
But a more notable and interesting incident was that Prime Minister, Mizengo Pinda was among the supporters.
Lastly there were strong verbal exchanges between Lissu and Minister for East Africa Cooperation Samuel Sitta, on the budget of the Judiciary as the Lissu remarked:
"I respect him as he is respected in the society but I beg to differ with him on this matter as he Sitta is deadly wrong." Sitta responded by saying he had never stood in the House and given bogus statement.
The Bill was eventually passed after the last intervention from Chief whip, William Lukuvi.

My husband was such a skeptic about all of my herbs. After using this product for joint pain, he is now taking everything and anything that I order with no questions asked. His body felt better in a few days.He was so excited like it was a miracle!
I'm so glad I discovered astaxanthin. It has eliminated the carpal tunnel symptoms in my hands as well as the stiffness in other joints. It has also considerably helped the depression I've had for years.

Great quality and price
Posted by yourhealthsuccess on Oct 04, 2008
I used astaxanthin for tendinitis pain and general getting old pain of muscle and joint aches. My Naturopathic Physician gave it to me as an antioxidant. I had a lot of free radicals from eatin junk and meat. I didn't notice a difference really until I ran out and slowly all my pain came back and my tendinitis! I was pretty amazed. So now I'm back on it and I'm much more agile, less pain

FORT WAYNE (www.incnow.tv) - The Scott twins showed the way and their mates came on strong as well as Northop buried East Noble 91-27 in boys high school basketball Friday night.
Bryson Scott tallied a game high 23 points and Brenton Scott followed closely behind with 19.
But perhaps more impressive were the 48 additional points put up by the rest of the Bruins, a good sign for Northrop going forward in the new season.

Hi, welcome to GTA Wiki! Thanks for your edit to the Main Page page.
Please leave a message on my talk page if I can help with anything! -- Biggest gta fan ever (Talk) 14:45, 30 January 2010
Everything was already covered in their respective articles. --Gta-mysteries Talk 19:21, August 7, 2010 (UTC)
Your edit to Cheetah was undone because the name is still Cheetah, the H is blocked in the sun reflection. Also, the Cheetah was not in the V trailer it was in a screen. -- Zulu2065 (talk) 17:54, August 24, 2012 (UTC)
Stop adding your estimated populations of neighbourhoods to articles. Tom Talk 15:37, October 23, 2012 (UTC)
- I've removed them from the GTA IV articles but could you remove them from the others. Tom Talk 15:42, October 23, 2012 (UTC)
- I wont do it without a reason, also, remove all the population estimates on this wikia before ill move a finger, as of what i can see they are ALOT more unrealistic than my correct ests.
- The populations are based on those of New York City, which Liberty City is based on, or so I believe it's a Wikia norm but I don't know much about that to be honest, it's just the way it is. While I can't help but "admire" your work ethic when it comes to GTA IV info, they are still your own estimates and are therefore classified as false information. Also I am not trying to annoy you, I'm enforcing the rules of the Wiki. One last thing, if you ever speak to me or another member of this Wiki like that again I will block you.

GTA V's artwork
Hi, Epicnoobs.
We may have a little of stress on this issue.
Now, I was going around on Facebook to search fore Rockstar Games info on GTA V, and when I was about to use that artwork with the blonde hot chick, I saw someone had already put up the image- and that were you.
So, as I didn't want to repeat you, I checked the File Usage to see if you'd already used it on the pages I wanted to post the photo in.
And I saw you didn't. So I edited two pages with it. But as you were the one uploading it seconds first, I wanted to ask you if you're okay with it so we don't have any bad blood between us.
Answer on my talk page.
Mikey Klebbitz (talk) 17:04, October 30, 2012 (UTC)
Ok, stay safe buddy.
So long,

This might sound obvious, but a clean bike might well be the most pro mountain bike essential you can own. And no, this isn't just so you look good at the trailhead. "Take care of your equipment and it will take care of you," says Todd Wells. You can use soapy water (Dawn dish detergent works well) or pay a little extra for a specialized bike cleaner that will leave your frame sparkling and your drivetrain free of grit and grime. Muc-Off's Bike Cleaner is biodegradable and contains no harmful acids. Just remember you're washing a bike, not a back deck, so skip the high-powered pressure washer, and use a gently flowing garden hose.

- The Print
- The Artist
Francisco de Goya (1746 – 1828) was a talented and original Spanish artist whose questioning, irreverent attitude toward life was graphically conveyed in his works. Influenced by Velázquez and Rembrandt as well as by nature, Goya was Spain's leading painter by the 1780s. As court painter to the Spanish royal family, he created realistic, penetrating portraits of his patrons. In 1792, Goya was ravaged by an illness that left him deaf, emotionally broken and embittered. He is well known for his "Black Paintings," deeply disturbing, nightmarish works that Goya made after he was ravaged by a serious illness in 1792. He is also highly regarded for "Los Caprichos", a series of etchings that were scathing commentaries on human foibles and the corruption of the establishment.

Comments On Oct 14, 2014:Material feels pretty weak and cheap. However, I have about 1700 miles on this guide setup and everything is still functional. I had to modify the mounting as the chain was rubbing on the guide from the get-go. Not perfect but will work if you are persistent.

Comments On Apr 24, 2014:Bought this to replace my aging factory slider and guard, mounted it up and looked great but noticed somethings that made me decided to just get another factory guard and slider. The first thing was the slider dosent come with cushion tape like the factory so there will be a gap between the swingarm and slider. In regards to the guard its rough on the chain, you can hear a really loud clunking sound as you spin the back wheel after fitment, unlike factory. The 3rd smaller bolt also snapped when I wrenched it down hand tight. Expected more from Acerbis.

Comments On Mar 15, 2013:This was a complete waste of my money, and I don't think that I have ever been more disappointed in an m/c product. Both the slider and the chain guide are made from very hard material. Maybe the idea was to use a material that would wear longer, but the result was just the opposite. I have approximately 2 hrs of MX riding on this slider and chain guide and they both have significant wear. Also, they are so loud that I kept thinking something was wrong with my bike only to realize it was just the inferior parts that I had just wasted my money on. Lastly, the only positive part was that my chain is getting close to the end of its life so I wasn't too upset about the fact that the hard guide actually wore some material off of the rivets on my chain and rounded them over.

Comments On Feb 09, 2013:I generally find Acerbis products to be good, but this one disappointed me. The bolt sleeve on the lower slider was too small so I had to reuse the sleeve from the OEM slider. The chain guide didnâ??t line up centered with the sprocket, barely touching the inside face. After machining and shimming, getting the guide properly centered, it still made a lot of noise (due to the harder plastic) to the point it sounded like something was wrong with the drive. I ended up reusing my old chain guide for now, and will stick with an OEM guide next time.

- Title
- Photopolymerized microscopic vortex beam generators: precise delivery of optical orbital angular momentum
- Author(s)
- Brasselet, Etienne; Malinauskas, Mangirdas; Zukauskas, Albertas; Juodkazis, Saulius
- Abstract
- Direct femtosecond laser photopolymerization is used to fabricate high resolution microscopic spiral phase plates. The total phase change all around their center is prepared to be a integer multiple of 2π for the operating wavelength in the visible domain. The optical performances of the spiral plates are measured and we propose a simple single beam interferometric technique to characterize the phase singularity of the generated vortex beams. The experimental results are compared to simulations and a satisfying agreement is obtained. Potential of large scale fabrication, templating, and smart spiral plate architectures are also illustrated.

(WUSA) -- Speed limits are way too slow, that's according to a pair of state delegates who say drivers ought to be allowed to go at least seventy on some sections of interstates and toll roads.
Delegates Aruna Miller and Neil Parrott want to see the limit boosted from 55 miles an hour to 70 miles an hour. The Maryland Transportation Authority is considering a bump up to 60 miles an hour.
WUSA9 reporter Scott Broom has the story.

Visiting Scottish band's Big Jessie entertained children at the Muhimbili National Hospital cancer ward in Dar es Salaam yesterday.
The entertainment was part of the band's ten-day tour of the country that also coincides with the annual Scottish week.
The band played soft-tuning music without disturbing the patients out and inside the ward.
The patients, who most of them had their guidance of parents, looked impressed and puzzled by the presence of the band members.
It has been a rare occasion for musicians to entertain patients inside a hospital ward.
Some of them had just starred at the band members. It was the band's fifth performance since arriving from London last Friday.
The first show was held at the Buguruni School for the Deaf before staging a fund raising performance at a centrally located hotel in Dar es Salaam.
After taking a rest on Sunday, the band was busy since Monday performing at International School of Tanganyika.
Yesterday's performance at the cancer ward in Muhimbili was preceded by a performance at the Terrace Slipway a day before.
The band is expected to stage a performance at the CCRBT patients also in Dar es Salaam ahead of their tomorrow's assignment at the Thai Village Restaurant later in the evening.
Their show at the Dar es Salaam Yacht Club for members and guests will culminate the end of their busy series for the week.
The proceeds from various shows the band has staged during the week will be channeled to the Buguruni School for the Deaf and the Muhimbili National Hospital's children cancer ward.
The band's visit has been organized by the Caledonian Society of Tanganyika, Tanzanear and strongly backed by the British Airways in terms of return air flight tickets.
A similar visit was also made last year during the Scottish week by another band.
The Big Jessie band is based in Aberdeen, a city in the Northern Scotland.

Crossovers in the HD Universe are missions which involve multiple Protagonists to appear together. The most popular crossover is the Impossible Trinity in IV, TLAD, and TBoGT. Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars doesn't include crossovers. In Grand Theft Auto V you will be able to play with the three protagonists in the same mission, theoretically being a crossover. DLCs are also confirmed.

Comments: Easily the most comfortable skates I've ever worn right out of the box. Since getting them I've baked them and skated on them a few times. The feel absolutely great. I was a little worried they may not be stiff enough after seeing the IW review, but I have no complaints at all. Really a solid skate all around.
From: Chris, Bayport, NY
Comments: Have always been a bauer skate guy since age 4 . . . now 44. Skates final wore out, well unfixable broke. I have wide feet and high arch, like buddies call them duck feet, and have always put up with the narrowness of bauer hockey skates until NOW! I am very particular, did a ton of web search, and talked with some buddies here up north. Some of the fella's trying to get me into Graf's, but I didn't want to make the change, so ordered Nexus 600 Monday and they showed up Thursday tried them on and felt like I could skate that afternoon, but 1st edge Thurs. night, decided to bake Thurs. night, skated Friday morning! Loved the boot feel & look, plenty of room for my duck feet, heel locks in, light freakin weight, awesome skate, I highly recommend for any wide feet hockey players. AND ICE WAREHOUSE HELPED SO MUCH AND IS GREAT!! Originally, I ordered the Nexus 400, due to skating 1-2 times a week, but called them after ordering to discuss my situation of 1-2 times, but 1 game is elite hockey with old pro buddies and younger kids that want the elite title. Recommended 600 due to boot stiffness and durability and currently had 20% off, that I didn't know about, so skates didn't cost much more than the 400. I would have been dumb not to get the 600's. Friday Morning told story and they are checking IW out as we speak!
Bauer Nexus 600 = awesome
Ice Warehouse = Awesome
From: D, OK
Comments: If you are looking for a great skate with a comfortable fit, look no farther. The Bauer Nexus 600 is a very comfortable skate, especially for those players whose feet just don't work well with Vapor or Supreme skates. I had a pair of Bauer Air 70s for about 12 years. When it was time to upgrade, I tried a pair of Vapors at the Bauer Experience, but they we torture on my feet. I ordered a pair of Supremes. They felt good when I tried them on, but skating in them was a different story. When I saw that Bauer was going to release the Nexus skates, I knew they were the ones for me. I ordered them from IW and have been satisfied since. They are a perfect blend of performance and comfort, mixed with style. With the Nexus 600 skates, I can concentrate on my game instead of on how bad my feet hurt. The Bauer Nexus 600's have really helped me elevate my game to a new level.Check them out at IceWarehouse.com.
From: Gerard, St. Petters, MO
Comments: This is a great quality skate with a great upper. I also like the overall look.
From: Bobby
Comments: The Nexus 600 skates are very comfortable. The tongue and quarter come molded for comfort, particularly if you need a little higher volume in the mid-foot. Boot is stiff enough for quick response, and the steel reacts nicely too. Nice narrow heel-lock and the ankle pads will break in nicely with a bake and a few skates without causing blisters. The arch is on the high side. It gives great support so your feet/ankles won't collapse inwards causing loss of speed, and worse, shin splints. Do be aware of the arches if you have very flat feet, however. Overall, awesome skate and can't wait to see how it breaks in after more skating.
From: Jonny, NJ

The Third Raikage (三代目雷影, Sandaime Raikage, Literally meaning: Third Lightning Shadow) was the leader of Kumogakure thirty years prior to the Fourth Shinobi World War.
The Third's rule was punctuated by the berserk attacks of the Eight-Tails but as Kumogakure couldn't afford to dispose of such a valuable war deterrent, he was forced to look for a suitable jinchūriki in quick succession, after the conclusion of each rampage. During one of these attacks, the Third fought the Eight-Tails alone, allowing his comrades to escape. Their battle resulted in the Raikage receiving a self-inflicted wound to the chest after he collapsed upon his own hand, which became his life's shame.[2][3] Since this event, he made it a personal duty to combat the Eight-Tails whenever its jinchūriki lost control, with even his son eventually becoming part of the group that supported him during these occurrences. He chose to seal the Eight-Tails in the Kohaku no Jōhei, resulting in his nephew's death, hoping that someone else would have more success in controlling it.[4]
Between these attacks, the Third held try-outs along with Dodai in order to search for a tag-team partner for his son, which was a long-standing tradition for the Raikage. As the exercise was seemingly going to end in failure again, he lamented the fact that this would have been unnecessary if A had an actual brother. After seeing the dummy's head finally fall off, he looks on at B and his son, glad that they had finally found a suitable candidate. Ultimately, when Killer B was made the jinchūriki, the Eight-Tails' rampages were at long last brought to an end.[5]
At some point he also mentored Darui, passing the secrets of the Black Lightning technique down to just him.[6] In his later years, he once faced an opposing force of ten thousand shinobi single-handedly for three consecutive days and nights, in order to allow his comrades to escape to safety.[7] He eventually died as a result of this encounter and with his death, the position of Raikage was passed onto his son, A.[8] He would however become renowned for his extraordinary level of durability and endurance and strength above all else, to the point where his body itself would become reputed as the "strongest shield" (最強の盾, saikyō no tate).[9]
The Third Raikage is a calm and seemingly level-headed person. He is also a man of honour as seen when he became outraged when Mū tells Ōnoki to take advantage of the Allied Shinobi Forces after it is disbanded. He is also a very proud and caring individual who will readily use himself as a shield or "go-between" to protect his comrades. This was also exemplified when it was revealed that after he received a scar from fighting the Eight-Tails, not even his son asked him about it in detail, out of his respect for his father's pride.
He, like the other Kage, was upset that he has to fight people from his own village but at the same time he had a lot of confidence and believed that the new generation would be able to surpass and defeat them. He cared greatly for the people of his village, as he made it a personal responsibility to subdue the Eight-Tails whenever it would go on a rampage, as well as fought against ten thousand enemies single-handedly just to allow his comrades to escape to safety.[7] The Third also greatly admires ninja who are very skilled as seen when he congratulated the Fourth Kazekage for having such a strong son.[10]
The Third Raikage was a tall, dark-skinned man with a muscular, body builder-like stature. He had long blond hair and a full beard. He had unusual eyes which had green-coloured irides, dark sclerae and no pupils. His top lip also had a darker pigmentation than the bottom one and he had a mole above his right eyebrow. He has the kanji for "lightning" (雷, kaminari) tattooed on his right shoulder and a lightning bolt shaped scar that runs all the way across the right side of his chest. His canine teeth were also slightly elongated.
His typical attire consisted of Kumogakure's distinctive single shoulder-strap flak jacket with no other clothing underneath, a forehead protector that he wore like a bandanna and a thick rope tied around his waist. It was also shown that at some point in the past, he wore bandages on his forearms.
The Third was undoubtedly an immensely powerful shinobi and is recognised as the greatest Raikage that Kumogakure has ever seen.[11] He had enormous chakra reserves, being able to use the Kohaku no Jōhei to seal the Eight-Tails each time the beast went berserk during his time. He was able to single-handedly delay an entire army consisting of ten thousand shinobi for three days and nights before finally collapsing — something normal shinobi would have to use drug aid to achieve.[7] He was also said to be the only ninja capable of going up against a tailed beast alone, as even the Eight-Tails commented that he was a very tough and resilient man.[12]
The Third was said to possess great strength and speed. With the threat of a single punch he was able to prompt Dodai to encase Naruto Uzumaki as a protective measure. Even more impressive is the fact that the Third was able to launch the ball several metres away and crashing through solid rock.[13] He was fast enough to dodge Naruto's Wind Release: Rasenshuriken twice, despite the technique's immense speed, and also being half blinded by the sun the first time, which gave him less time to dodge the actual attack.[14] He was also able to kill dozens of ninja in an instant using his Hell Stab technique.[15] Naruto even noted that his speed was on par with that of his son's.[16]
Even more impressive, he was renowned for his tremendous level of durability so much so that his body gained the name the "strongest shield" (最強の盾, saikyō no tate) because it could withstand any type of technique.[9] The only attack that was strong enough to injure him was his own, which resulted in the scar on his chest. A true testament to his resilience was seen from how he survived a direct impact of a Rasenshuriken while Naruto was in his Nine-Tails Chakra Mode with little to no damage despite his Lightning Release Armour being neutralised.[17][18] With this trait, he was the only person of this time capable of being transported by the Heavenly Transfer Technique without being torn to shreds because of his tough body.[19] He also had equally immense reserves of stamina and endurance, able to fend off ten thousand shinobi single-handedly for three days and nights before finally collapsing[7] and battle the Eight-Tails to the point that they both collapsed from exhaustion.[20]
Nature Transformation
The Third was a very powerful Lightning Release user, known for using Black Lightning, which he passed on to Darui. Like his son he is also capable of using the Lightning Release Armour. Similar to the Chidori he can focus his lightning chakra into his fingers, creating a strong piercing effect and can make the piercing effect even more powerful by focusing the lightning chakra by reducing the number of fingers used. Dodai states that it is his strongest ninjutsu referring to it as the "strongest spear" (最強の矛, saikyō no hoko). With this power he could cut off all the tails of the Eight-Tails at once, and even pierce his own body.
According to Dodai, only powerful, long-range Wind Release attacks could harm him,[21] but due to his immense durability, along with the virtual immortality granted by the Summoning: Impure World Reincarnation technique, none of them were effective against him.[22]
Part II
Shinobi World War Arc
In preparation for the Fourth Shinobi World War, the Third Raikage was reincarnated by Kabuto Yakushi alongside other deceased Kage, to fight against the Allied Shinobi Forces.
When Mū, despite his camouflage, was detected approaching the Fourth Division, Kabuto had the Tsuchikage summon three other Kage to provide support. Amongst their numbers was a bemused Third Raikage, who questions the others about his present location, before seemingly recognising the Fourth Kazekage. During a later argument between the Second Mizukage and Second Tsuchikage, the Third expressed his disappointment in being unable to fight all three of them, due to the influence of the wretched ability used to reincarnate him and the control it held over him.
Pursuing the retreating division throughout the night, each of the Kage lamented the possibility of opposing shinobi from their own respective village yet only the Third Raikage remained optimistic that the current generation had surpassed them since their deaths. Confronted by an enormous wave of sand that is halted by the Fourth Kazekage, he correctly identifies the former as the individual who could manipulate Gold Dust, a capability that saved him once again but from the clutches of Gaara's arms of sand. Complementing the Fourth, he told him that his son was an excellent shinobi, and later chastised Mū when he advised Ōnoki to assure Iwagakure's dominance by taking advantage of the alliance's eventual disbandment. As the battle recommenced after he implored the opposition to stop them, the Third and the others attempted to encircle Gaara while protected from his Sand Hail, but is instead restrained by the embrace of the latter's sand.
Observing the Fourth Kazekage being sealed, his Lightning Release Armour activates involuntarily to this threat and destroys the sealing tag, to which he told the Second Mizukage that their bodies had been programmed to automatically responded to enemy attacks. Freed from their bonds, the two stormed the approaching division, before beginning to divulge the particulars of their abilities. Identifying himself as a Lightning Release user, the Third instructed the opposition to have their Earth Release shinobi construct defences, while those with Wind Release attacked him relentlessly.[23]
As numerous shinobi converged on him, Temari appeared to successfully cut the Third into several pieces using her Wind Release: Cast Net technique, before directing the Sealing Team to bind him immediately. However, her efforts proved to ultimately be ineffective, as the Third was able to regenerate before the Sealing Team could take action. While the opposition reformulated their strategy, the Third spotted Dodai amongst them, and called out to him. Dodai proceeded to inform Temari that more powerful wind release techniques were required in order to to contest the Raikage's legendary durability. As the nature of his death was disclosed, Kabuto took the opportunity to erase the Third's personality to buy himself more time, just as Naruto Uzumaki's clone made his appearance on the battlefield.
Despite utilising the sun to obscure his attack, Naruto's first few attempts failed to connect with the Raikage, due to his enhanced reflexes and speed which allowed him to evade the attack twice. However, on the third attempt, he was unable to avoid the attack and was instead caught at the very centre of the sphere, but even the damage inflicted by this proved to be minimal and the Third once again, quickly recovered before he could be bound. Advancing upon the stunned opposition whilst activating his Hell Stab technique, the allied forces hastily constructed several reinforced defences in response, yet the attack penetrates both with considerable ease.
Emerging from the other side only to be ambushed by a onslaught of shinobi, who presumed that the element of surprise would be enough, the Third proceeds to quickly defeat them before engaging the rest of the division. Destroying the cliff where Dodai and Naruto had sought refuge, the Raikage folded his fist in preparation to incapacitate the falling Naruto with a punch but thanks to Dodai's intervention, he punched a rubber ball instead. Believing that Naruto had been encased within the ball, which had been sent bouncing away by his prior strike, the Third gave chase to it. However, after he caught up with, and slicing the ball in two, he realised that it was empty and so, changed direction in order to pursue Naruto.
Reducing the number of fingers used in his Hell Stab technique to just one as he advanced, the Third's attack is dodged by Naruto using the enhanced reflexes and sensory abilities granted by Sage Mode and parried with a Rasengan, aimed at the Raikage's left arm. The force of the blow caused the Third to impale himself with his own attack and as his body began to crumble, the Sealing Team took immediate action and completed his imprisonment. Later, with the release of the Impure World Reincarnation technique, a light of sorts encased the Third Raikage's sealed body as the technique was dispelled and his soul was returned to the afterlife.
- The concept behind the Third Raikage's possession of both the "strongest spear" (最強の矛, saikyō no hoko) and the "strongest shield" (最強の盾, saikyō no tate) was adapted from an anecdote found within the book Han Feizi, written by Han Fei, illustrating a contradiction relating to the Irresistible Force Paradox. The story goes as follows:
- "There was a man in Chu who sold shields and halberds. Praising them he said: "My shields are so strong that nothing can pierce them." And praising the halberds he said: "My halberds are so strong that there is nothing that they cannot pierce." A person asked: "What if someone pierces your shields with your halberds?" He could not respond."
- In chapter 554 when the Third is referred to as the "greatest Raikage", the word used for the Raikage's description (最豪) can mean anything from 'greatest' to 'strongest' to 'manliest'.
- When the Third Raikage tells the allied troops about his abilities, he says, "I'm a Lightning Release user! Place your Earth Release users on the front row and attack me incessantly!!" (「ワシ雷遁を使う!土遁の忍を前列に置きワシを攻めたてろ!!」, "Washi Raiton o tsukau! Doton no shinobi o zenretsu ni oki washi o seme tatero!!").[23] In the tankōbon version, this is changed into, "I'm a Lightning Release user! Place your Earth Release users in the front row to create shields, while your Wind Release users attack me incessantly!!" (「ワシ雷遁を使う!土遁の忍を前列に置き盾を作りつつ風遁の忍で攻めたてろ!!」, "Washi Raiton o tsukau! Doton no shinobi o zenretsu ni oki tatsu o tsukuri tsutsu Fūton no shinobi de seme tatero!!").[24]
- (To the other Kage) "It's not as tragic as you make it out to be. I have faith that the kids of all our villages have grown up to surpass us."[25]
