Bombers to honour First Nations
The official opening of Investors Group Field tonight will be more than an historic moment for our city and province. It will also be a monumental occasion for First Nations.
As the flags are trooped out onto the field by the ceremonial colour guard, at their helm will be Sayisi Dene elder Joseph Meconse, bearing his eagle staff.
For the Winnipeg Blue Bombers to invite Meconse, an aboriginal veteran and Order of Manitoba recipient, to march in the eagle staff is not insignificant. It is a symbol of respect that honours the sacrifices and aboriginal contributions to Canada and a gesture of gratitude to all veterans. The eagle staff is considered by many to be the First Nations flag, its 13 feathers representing the 13 moons of the year. As far as I know, the marching in of the eagle staff is a first-of-its-kind event in Canadian professional football and certainly the first time an honour of this nature has been bestowed on national television.
The choice of Meconse is a great one, starting with the Citation for the Order of Manitoba that he proudly wears around his neck. In large part, this is in recognition of the role he has played serving his people and his country with distinction and for all he has done to help improve the quality of life for Canada's aboriginal veterans.
Joining the Canadian Forces in 1962, Meconse's service took him to Germany and Cypress for peacekeeping duties and to Quebec during the FLQ crisis. He left the Forces in 1971 and enjoyed a long career with Corrections Canada.
Since his retirement in 2000, he has travelled the province, visiting schools and other venues to promote awareness of the contributions and sacrifices aboriginal veterans have made. Among others, he is a member of the Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry Association and the National Aboriginal Veterans Association. His work with the latter was instrumental in the installation of the National Aboriginal Veterans monument in Ottawa in 2001.
It is fitting that the eagle-staff ceremony is taking place at this time of year, as First Nations across Canada are in the middle of sun-dance season -- ceremonies that honour the Earth through dancing in the sun and fasting, with no food or water for four days.
Old Carl Whitman, a Mandan elder who had led almost 40 sun dances when I first met him in North Dakota, shared their role with me. "The one thing you truly own is your body. By dancing and suffering, you are sacrificing yourself so that you can help others."
The sun dance is one of many First Nations ceremonies that involve personal sacrifice for the good of the collective group. Front and centre at these ceremonies? The eagle staff. It was at a sun dance that I became deeply aware that veterans are modern-day equivalents of this sacrifice and are honoured as such in First Nations communities and beyond.
Both Meconse and the eagle staff carry lessons of a growing awareness of the historical role First Nations have played in the development of Canada and will play going forward into our collective future.
The growing recognition of things such as which treaty territory we live on and whose traditional lands we share are reminders of the hard work educators and leaders from all backgrounds have placed on rebuilding the relationship between First Nations and all other Canadians.
The Winnipeg Blue Bombers should be thanked for having the foresight to honour the ground upon which Investors Group Field is built -- Treaty 1 territory -- and for recognizing First Nations veterans who have served with the Canadian Forces in every major conflict since Confederation and, in so doing, have given of themselves to Canada in the spirit of long-held practices.
As the Blue Bombers pass the torch from the "house that Jack built" -- a reference to First Nations quarterback Jack Jacobs, who was widely credited for getting the last stadium built -- to their new home at Investors Group Field, it is not lost on the First Nations community that this is exactly what the treaties are about -- working together to achieve great things for ourselves, our families and our communities.
Kinanaskomitin -- I am thankful to you.
James Wilson is commissioner of the Treaty Relations Commission of Manitoba, a neutral body mandated to encourage discussion, facilitate public understanding and enhance mutual respect between all peoples in Manitoba.

That's the difference between "services" and "products"You don't own the TV shows and movies that get piped into your house via cable or satellite either. But you have access to them by simply paying a monthly fee.The people who subscribe to a streaming music service are well aware that they don't own the music. And that's actually part of the appeal.Instead of paying $1 for each and every song they'd ever wanna listen to... people are subscribing to a huge catalog.

We created Pandora to put the Music Genome Project directly in your hands
It's a new kind of radio –
stations that play only music you like
The road to Flyleaf's 2005 self-titled debut on Octone Records was dotted with more green lights than red: the band played wherever they were invited around their home state at first, gradually building the kind of fan base that allowed them to open for acts such as Bowling for Soup, Fishbone, and Riddlin' Kids. By 2003, with word of Mosley's arsenic-laced lyrics and blowtorch-style delivery spreading through Texas and beyond, Flyleaf earned a spot at the annual South by Southwest Music Conference. A contract from Octone was rushed to the signing stages by 2004.
An EP, issued in early 2005 and also called Flyleaf, benefited from the production team of Rick Parashar (Pearl Jam, Blind Melon) and Brad Cook (Foo Fighters, Queens of the Stone Age). Key tracks such as the roiling "Cassie" and the emo-tinged "Breathe Today," both of which appear on the full-length, furthered Flyleaf's reputation, as did raging live shows alongside Saliva, Breaking Benjamin, 3 Doors Down, and Staind. For the fall 2005 release, producer Howard Benson (My Chemical Romance, Papa Roach, the All-American Rejects) joined Flyleaf in Los Angeles. A batch of 20 songs was winnowed to 12, with Mosley's searing vocals and Bhattacharya's and Hartmann's storming guitars offsetting each other to affect a sound by turns morose, compassionate, hopeful, and bitter.
Following the release of Flyleaf, the band toured heavily on the festival circuit. They hit the main stage on the 2006 and 2007 Family Values Tour, as well as the Soundwave festival and Disturbed's Music as a Weapon III tour. They also made a jump to the world of video games when their single "I'm So Sick" was put in the first installment of the Rock Band series and their single, "Tina," debuted in Guitar Hero 3. After taking some time out of their hectic touring schedule to record, Flyleaf released their sophomore album, Memento Mori, in 2009. In 2010 Flyleaf delivered the EP Remember to Live, featuring stripped-down, reworked versions of some of the band's early songs. In 2012 the band released its third studio album, the Howard Benson-produced New Horizons, after which Mosley (then going by the name Lacey Sturm) and the band amicably parted ways. Kristen May, former lead singer for the band Vedora, was recruited as a vocalist, and the May version of Flyleaf recorded a single, "Something Better" (again produced by Benson), which was part of the 2013 EP Who We Are. Between the Stars, the band's fourth long-player and first outing for Loud & Proud Records, arrived the following year. ~ Tammy La Gorce, Rovi

Just like adult players, scholastic players can now keep all of their games in one place in this traditional chess notation scorebook which holds 50 games, with 60 moves each game. The line spacing is twice as big than in the regular notation scorebooks because scholastic players tend to write larger. It also has space to put all of your tournament and game information. Each sheet is spiral-bound to make games easily accessible. A must for the "organized" scholastic tournament player so that he can have a record of his games for later analysis with his coach!

Three-time Kentucky Derby-winning jockey Calvin Borel was injured Wednesday at Keeneland in Lexington.
Borel was unseated from Sonic Dancer shortly after the start of the sixth race.
"He was stable, somewhat alert and suffering the effects of a sports concussion. He was complaining of pain in his left leg but he was able to move it. He was transported to the University of Kentucky Medical Center for further evaluation," said Keeneland Medical Director Dr. Barry Schumer.
Borel's condition at UK Hospital has not been released.

Prudence? Thoughts please :)

Interested in your thoughts on the name Prudence. If you had to describe what style you think it is, what word/s word you use?
And what middle names do you think might go nicely with it?!
TIA x
Posted 29 March 2012 - 07:40 PM
My sister is Prudence Clare.
Posted 29 March 2012 - 07:43 PM
I like it. I would describe it as:
Virtue name
Ladylike but not ulta-girly
I would like it with a middle name like Blythe, Claire, Jane, Ivy, or similar. Depends a lot on the last name though. Prudence James can have a longer middle name than Prudence Wojciechowski.
Posted 29 March 2012 - 07:44 PM
Very much NMS. Can't get past the prude / prudish sound.
Style - I think it's a virtue name in an era where that virtue is out of fashion.
Sorry OP.

I think she's gone off with the "prudish" association, which I can kind of see, but I like "prudent" enough to not mind, and also watched Charmed at a young and impressionable age and have a crush on Shannen Doherty as well.

I think Grace/Faith/Hope/Felicity are in fashion and to some extent Verity/Amity are rising? Constance/Temperance/Prudence aren't super popular but unless I've become geographically dislocated again and they're only popular in the States, I wouldn't say virtue names are unpopular at all?
(and I love most of them)

Not a huge fan. I also think it sounds a bit too much like prude/prudish even though Prudence is a different word. But then, I am not a fan of virtue names like Patience, Grace, Hope, Felicity or Charity either. The last two sound a bit prettier, but still NMS.

Yup "Dear Prudence won't you come out to play?" A beatles association can't be too traumatic can it?
I think it's a little cute - strong, feminine, different for these days.
I probably wouldn't use it for my daughter but that's because I like "boys" names for girls. Anyway, if you love it, who cares what anyone else thinks?!

I quite like the name Prudence I've met a few of them over the years and they have all been lovely.
Not sure how I'd describe it, I'm not good with that stuff LOL I either like a name or I dont
QUOTE (la di dah @ 29/03/2012, 08:43 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
I would like it with a middle name like Blythe, Claire, Jane, Ivy, or similar. Depends a lot on the last name though. Prudence James can have a longer middle name than Prudence Wojciechowski.
I also find it amusing when a random surname from childhood pops up somewhere unexpected LOL Do you know someone with that name la di dah? Just being nosey

The real b**ches in English kids books I read as a kid always seemed to be Prudence. I cannot warm to it.

There are some virtue names I quite like - Grace, Faith, Hope, Joy, Harmony - but I dont really like Prudence.

Fingers working faster than brain. Blame the lack of sleep (DD teething).
Meant that virtue names are out of fashion.
That and a connection to prudish.
Won't bother correcting as it's already been quoted.
Ah, gotcha. See I like the name so much my mind didn't even think of prudish. Maybe because the Prudence I know is very lovely and hip and gorgeous and works for Vogue etc etc.
Posted 29 March 2012 - 08:25 PM
Gaah, don't tease the sleep-addled one!
I would argue that Grace, Hope and faith are chosen less for their virtuous qualities and more for their aesthetic as one syllable middle names / connection to Grace Kelly-esque charm / link to family names so wouldn't class them in the virtue category.
Names like Prudence, Constance and Temperance - I've not heard given to a baby (celeb or in real life) for about 30 years.
Fully aware that a lot of people will jump in with examples and I will have missed something obvious so would like to bow out in a nothing-to-see-here kind of way. As you were.
PS - I got over Charmed when they brought in Paige - given the premise of the show was that generations could gain in magical strength until there were three sisters in a generation, and they would be "the Charmed ones" - to have a half sister on the charmed side would thus mean that this generation were not the Charmed ones after all? Especially since they could have easily done something cool like have Prue swap bodies with a demon and the Charmed ones be unable to reverse the spell...
But anyway.

Yeah, I know quite a few interesting Eastern European names. That one was just someone I knew once, but I'm related to a lot of Russian/Polish etc. named people who's names end in -wicz and -ski and so on.

US Views of Iran Improve After UN Assembly
Diplomatic overtures from Iran during the U.N. General Assembly seem to have softened American views of Iran, according to a new Economist/YouGov poll. On September 13, some 52 percent of respondents considered Iran an enemy. But on September 30, only 36 percent did. The following are results from the report, some of which compare public opinion before and after the assembly.
Report: Principles for Unwinding Sanctions
Iran may be ready to limit its nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief, but removing punitive measures would require "a sustained period of concrete and verified Iranian actions," according to a new Center for a New American Security brief. Lifting years' worth of unilateral and multilateral sanctions by the United States, European Union, United Nations and other countries also would involve a lengthy process and much coordination.
But Tehran would likely expect the quick removal of at least some sanctions. The brief argues that the Obama administration would need to identify areas where it can relax sanctions during the initial stages of implementing an agreement. The brief also recommends "provisions for automatic reinstatement if Iran does not comply with the terms of any nuclear agreement." The following are excerpts with a link to the full text at the end.
Iran's Man on Wire: Javad Zarif
New Progress in Iran Nuke Talks?
After talks on October 15 and 16, Iran and the world's six powers reported that the nuclear talks were "substantive and forward looking." Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif told reporters, "We hope that this is a beginning of a new phase in our relations." It was the sixth round of negotiations since 2011. But the closed-door meetings in Geneva were the first since the June election of President Hassan Rouhani, who had pledged to resolve the nuclear dispute during his campaign. The talks included the top nuclear negotiators from the United States, Britain, China, France, Germany and Russia. The next round will be held in Geneva on November 7 and 8.

Zarif Diary on Historic US-Iran Talks
In an all-time first for Iranian diplomacy, new Foreign Minister Mohammed Javad Zarif has been chronicling his visit to New York on his Facebook page for Iranians back home. On September 26, Secretary of State John Kerry and Zarif held their first meeting on the sideline of talks between Iran and the world's six major powers. President Obama spoke with President Hassan Rouhani on the phone the following day, marking the first direct communication between U.S. and Iranian heads of state since the 1979 revolution.
I began writing the last report for you all at 5:15 a.m. on Friday [September 27] because it was not yet the time for morning prayers. I wrote part of the report before prayers and the rest after prayers. Then I looked at some of your sweet messages that I swear would resolve any difficulty and cure fatigue.
I ate breakfast with the president of the republic and around 8:30 a.m. I prepared for the meeting of the Foreign Ministers of the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM), which I chaired, and went to the U.N. headquarters.
The session began at 9:15 a.m. with speeches by the president of the republic [Hassan Rouhani], the U.N. Secretary General and the General Assembly president. It lasted until 1:30 p.m. About 30 ministers and senior representatives of the member states spoke about the rule of law in international relations.
I don't know why some in Tehran see this trip and this conversation as a thorn in the eyes of malice for Iran, Islam and the Revolution or why they question these actions as ill-considered. Nevertheless, as Hafez [a 14th-century poet] stated (see below):
My eyes, evil seeds have never sown.
I visited with several Iranians that had come from a variety of cities starting at 7 a.m. yesterday, which was Saturday. From 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., I had back-to-back meetings with nine U.N. secretaries at the United Nations. I even had to do my noon and evening prayers in the side hall. While standing and waiting, I ate two pieces of vegetable pizza that my friends had procured from outside.
At the end of the trip I will present the full list of meetings. I do not think there is an important country left with a president or minister (or both) who I have not met with during this trip. Many made their own requests and followed up very diligently.
I returned to the residence (that same residence as Iran's ambassador) after the meetings. I must say that due to the short visit of the president and busy work schedule, all of us (even the ambassador), along with the president and delegation, stayed in the hotel closest to the United Nations headquarters. There was nothing to break the [schedule] up. But with his [the president's] return, I went back to the residence.
Anyways, at the residence, I had a four-hour session with a number of famous and prominent American nuclear scientists who shared their own opinions about the technical methods and proliferation risk posed by Iran's nuclear program. The session was very useful. The esteemed representatives of the Atomic Energy Organization have come to New York to participate in P5+1 session. Overall, the meeting was good and constructive.
I had many long meetings with some of these people [scientists] at the same residence seven or eight years ago during my time as ambassador in New York, when I was also responsible for nuclear negotiations. Those meetings towards the end of my tenure led to the idea that I presented in Paris to three European countries in April 2005 (also, for the record, the plan was to use PowerPoint!!). Unfortunately, because of pressure (from the deputy US secretary of state) over the Europeans' plans, we did not reach a conclusion [on the nuclear issue]. Everyone acknowledges that if we had reached a conclusion then other conditions would have been created.
Hopefully, today, which is Sunday, I will go to ABC network's studio in New York at 8:30 a.m. to give a live interview. On Sunday mornings, American network television stations have similar shows [to ones in Iran] that they call "Sunday morning talk shows." Each week, several American officials have interviews on these programs, which are very popular.
This will not be the first time that I have appeared on the program. About 26 years ago, I appeared on it with Iraqi Ambassador Ismat Kittani. Due to the Iran-Iraq war, we went to a studio, sat in a room and had a polite fight. The late Mr. Kittani was very graceful. Of course, Mr. Kittani died years before the scheduling of this [Sunday's] program…
After my interview, I will meet with one of the leading professors and patriotic Iranians from California (it is a six-hour direct flight to New York from there)... After that, I will have lunch with 15 prominent American professors and politicians. At dinner, I will attend a program for young elite Iranian [college students]. I will be counting the moments during this program. I saw names of professors from Harvard and MIT on the participants list who were… more or less, all under thirty years old.
It is now 6:30 a.m. Again, I did my prayer in the middle of writing this report. I jabbered too much, perhaps because my heart is full of love and prayers, and talking with all of you friends is relaxing.
May Allah protect you, and I am hoping to meet you again.
Yesterday, the interview and sessions were good, by the grace of Allah. Of course, the interview was very challenging. Nevertheless, I must try. I am hopeful that you will forgive me for my mistakes.
The session with the Iranian elite took about three and a half hours, and was extremely useful and fun. I, however, mostly listened to my friends' opinions and recommendations.
Today, I have about eight meetings at the United Nations or agencies. I am going to see some foreign ministers and several officials, including Ms. [Navi] Pillay, the U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights. I will have discussions. Thank God that the meetings of this week are not as compressed as last week. But there are still more meetings than usual.
May God protect you.

This is a very awesome chapter! The holy crap one thing is Itachi would be released... DAN DIDN'T EVEN SAW TSUNADE. I hope Sakura Haruno is an Edo too and she will be gone for good, yay! :D My chatmate who loves Itachi must be mourning hahaha...
This is why Naruto is starting to get on my nerves. It gets a bit intresting, albeit Hax and annoying, and then the edo is released. Im waiting to see if everyone disapears, and guess what, its only 14 friggen pages. Not to mention its on a break next week. I need to quit reading Naruto or my blood pressure is gonna rise ~_~
awesome!but none next week
for god's sake come on people there were 3 double-pages. which makes it 11+3x2=17 pages. it wasn't short or anything, it's 17 pages as usual.
here are the double pages;
do they actually look like 1 page?
madara shouldn't disappear. right now I can't put logic to how he could stay but, if he were to be gone like this it would suck. madara should remain to fight naruto and/or sasuke.
itachi did his job elegantly as always. however the hand seals were different, so something is fishy there, and it appears he's still up to something. can't wait to see what it is.
also sasuke, I'm glad he still wants to destroy konoha. it would suck if he were to change his mind. but the best thing is, it appears he's calmed down. even though he still wants to destroy konoha, his maniac personality is gone which is actually a relieve. This way things should get more interesting.

First we get introduced to Madara and his amazing power hoping and praying he would kill at least one kage (would make it a better story plus its war, people are pose to die) Now things just took a toll for the worst when kabuto got caught in the dumbest eye jutsu in Naruto....the over hyped izanami (not to mention all of those flashbacks) Nobody has died yet and this war has been going on for days! wtf kishi are you telling me the shinobi alliance are this good this amazing.
then you come at us with this chapter? First off kishi you are making the uchiha waaaaay to OP. you give them ultimate jutsu after ultimate jutsu and this is coming from a way of the uchiha but its going too far when your saying the tailed beast can't even stand up too (depend of what scan you read) Ultimate Susanoo http://mangastream.com/read/naruto/57079454/10 http://www.narutobase.net/manga/Naruto/589/5 :flaw:
I thought the tailed were pose to be the most powerful thing in creation of all the naruto world. plus to add injury to insult madara may be released (not for sure yet never showed him being released from edo tensi) Kishi I hope you have something amazing that your gonna pull out your ass two weeks from now because this was just :sy: all day

If you read that page of the manga, Kabuto says that to release the edo tensei you need to make the Dog>Horse>tiger handseals and then say release but in the latest issue:
He does the rat>ox>monkey>tiger>dragon>boar handseals and then says release.
So I think that itachi has done something else, not released the actual edo tensei but maybe he has released their souls so they have their minds and bodies back? Im not sure im just speculating.
The only other scenario i can think of is that kabuto lied to Tobi about Edo tensei.
So, your thoughts?
Good distinction
i think it's a mistranslation in chapter 521
of course the cancellation succeeded because we
saw the summons Disappear.
of course madara disappear to.
and Tobi summoning him.
I enjoyed this chapter very much. I hope Madara doesn't go yet but then again, I also wish for the Kage's to survive.. And Itachi saved the day! D Now, I hope Kishi gets back to Naruto, I've missed that hyperactive knucklehead Ninja. And a bonus, we saw Deidara again! Hah, sorry. But too bad Edo Tensei has ended already, there were so many awesome fights and we got to see many deceased characters again. They will be missed once again.
But a 5/5 from me as always. ^_^
Very good chapter! Enjoyed it thoroughly! Glad to see that things are finally beginning to wrap up and more of the final plot is about to be revealed. 5/5
Kinda agree
You fail to understand most powerful things in the naruto universe are the decendants the sage's two sons and the tailed beast. The descendants of the sage's two sons are meant to be OP!
it's really bad that Itachi didn't tell Sasuke to stop attacking to Konoha
Great chapter, only really short, if Madara goes away I'm really gonna rage
Meh - I thought it was awesome

Actually if I'm not mistaken I this the most powerful thing in the naruto universe in the Juubi and the SO6P

true story repp+
I'm not really sure about that...
1. who gives a shit
2. u knew it was gonna happen, how is it trolling
people have been dying
4. uchiha arent op, theyre dead.
It was horrible, but Kabuto is a complete moron if he didn't trigger some kind of trap.

He's trying to retrieve the Sword of Totsuka from Kabuto's butt.
Madara better not have been released, he never told us how he knew nagato, or what happen at the valley of the end or what he need the 1st dna for

Ah...success. Not always what you see...but does it smell? What ever do you suppose success smells like? I thought I hadn't a clue but after some thinking I decided that I might.
Success can be defined as:
The achievement of something desired, planned, or attempted.
The gaining of fame or prosperity.
Recently we watched a clip of a couple who had been married 80 years...they married in 1932, long before most of you were born. M and I were babies! They were told it wouldn't last...but here they are at 101 and 97...that smells like success to me!
They were much like the two of us; they didn't have much money but what they had was much more valuable...their apparent lasting love for each other. I imagine they smell pretty sweet.
Success in overcoming all the pitfalls that you encounter...and there are always more than enough...meeting them head on and surviving in one piece. Possibly a few scars to show for it...but scars can fade.
Success in seeing children grow into mature, wonderful people...making a positive difference in their surroundings, physical and spiritual. Emulating their parents...honoring them. Smells good, right?
Recently our oldest son was flying to California and he texted me:
"The Book says, 'honor your father and mother'...consider yourself honored." I don't cry much but things like that really move me...I shed a few in love.
"Every success is an opportunity to stay humble." Terry Mark
Part of success could be that our four sons respect us and always have. They are in their late fifties and very early sixties...from the get-go, they have never once given either of us any lip/back talk/guff/disrespect. That smells like some success to me...oh yes!
I suppose flying around the world...alone...shaking in fear...and making it would mean some success to me, personally. I never liked doing anything alone and yet, I've done it...because? Because, my love asked me to come see him in Ethiopia because he was so lonesome and he thought I needed some R&R after two emergency surgeries. M smelled wonderfully sweet...mmm!
Success was not getting lost or missing my flight in JFK...not being abducted in the hotel in Athens, Greece by two Ethiopian Air Force officers who tried to have dinner with me and take me to the Plaka (Athens night life mecca).
Success making it home via Cairo and hundreds of machine-gun toting militia...coupled with sitting on the tarmac while passengers prayed to Mecca. Some flights had a few chickens, etc. mixed in for a different smell of success!
For so many years I was scared someone was going to 'look' at me...
my feet shook so hard my shoes made knocking noises on the floor...yikes...be quiet feet...or was it my legs that made my feet shake. Could've been my entire body...yes, that was it. Ha! No where to hide.
I decided I must have some crazy sort of magnet embedded somewhere in my bod. I would be innocently listening to a lady seminar speaker when she would suddenly say, " I need a volunteer to lead a prayer, please" and she'd fixate on my eyes...my insides were doing the "Oh, please don't look at me...look over there at anyone else but me." Didn't work, I ended up doing it (with a tremor in my voice, of course...and only God knows what I prayed, I don't).
Success comes with tiny steps...at least in my case! Little by little...and not at all obvious. I ended up teaching classes of Chinese university students...how could that have happened?
"Success is not final, failure is not fatal:
It is the courage to continue that counts."
Winston Churchill
Winston Churchill
So, to me...success smells like fresh air, clean and clear after a rain...relief from pressure...the ability to get on with it...a feeling that I am loved and have someone important caring for me...mmm, smells good to me! I am humbled.
From my heart...to yours,
