Mary Carmella Miller
Mary's daughters regret to announce the passing of their mother, at St. Martha's Regional Hospital, Antigonish, on June 11, 2015, at age 94.
Born May 2, 1921, in St. Joseph's Hospital, Glace Bay. NS, Mary was the only daughter of five children born to the late Michael and MaryBelle (Pembroke) Gates. Predeceased by both parents at a very young age, Mary came to St. Andrews, Antigonish County, to live with the late Catherine (MacIntosh) McGillivray, her foster mother with whom she had a very special bond. Following completion of school in St. Andrews, Mary entered a laboratory technology course at Bethany Convent/St. Martha's Hospital where she worked in the lab during wartime. Here, she was able to recount a myriad of interesting stories and adventures with the people she met as well with those friendships maintained from long lasting grade school friends, particularly Mary Catherine Long. But when it came to her lab role, Mary was considered very skilled and respected by her colleagues.
Mary was married on July 1, 1945, to Harold M. Miller at St. Andrews Church. Harold and Mary moved to Antigonish town in 1960, where they lived the remainder of their married life. She became part of the community of the strong Brookland St. women, who all raised their families together in wonderful harmony in the 1960s and 70s. Her back door was a revolving door, from her children's friends, neighbours and weekly visitors, providing wonderful conversation and meals. She became the first Mom on her street to get her driver's license, toting countless children and teenagers to beaches, fishing, guides, summer job commutes and evening events. An avid gardener, Mary grew many beautiful flowers, along with her infamous community rhubarb patch. She was a prized cook and baker, of which she provided many wedding and anniversary cakes to friends and family as gifts. In the late 1960s, she returned to work at St.FXU library, where she loved many frontline encounters with students. She also volunteered with Martha-in-the Home. In her later years, she and Harold enjoyed socializing at Club 60 and spending time with their grandchildren. Mary was a devout Catholic. Her faith was extremely important to her and her rosary was never far from her side. She was a parishioner of Saint Ninian's Cathedral and the CWL for over 55 years.
Although Mary lived most of her life in Antigonish, she did not leave behind her Cape Breton spirit, strength and generosity, it flowed through her veins as thick as the coal dust from her heritage. She was a confidante and supporter of all in need with her countless acts of kindness and positivity. An avid animal lover, Mary was continuously surrounded by a menagerie of farm animals and pets from her early life in St. Andrews to her later years on Brookland Street. She was one of a kind and the real deal of what the human condition should emulate.
Mary is survived by her daughters, Joan (Barry) Colbourne, Darlene (James) Miller-Cash; grandchildren Meghan Cash and Wayne (Carmela) Miller; sister-in-law Nell Spicer; and numerous nieces and nephews.
She was predeceased by her husband Harold; son, Harold Wayne (Sandra); brothers Michael, Jim, Jack and Fred; foster siblings Annabel (Peter Dan) MacDonald, Sister Remigius McGillivray, CSM and Fred Bishop.
Mary's family would like to thank Frances MacDougall for her kindness and friendship bestowed to Mary and the wonderful staff of the VON and Saint Martha's Regional Hospital for all of the care provided over the last number of months. Also, a thank you to Marie Farrell for the support provided to Mary, which allowed her to live independently at home.
Funeral Mass was held June 15 in St. Ninian's Cathedral with Reverend Andrew Boyd presiding. Readers were Linda Creighton and Basil Ludlow. Eucharistic minister was Marian Draper. Music was provided by James MacPherson and Margaret MacDonald. Pallbearers were David Spicer, Vernon Spicer, Miles Tompkins, Jim Moeller, John Cameron and Terry Bray. Internment was in Saint Ninian's Cemetery. Donations in memory may be made to Saint Ninian's Cathedral or a charity of your choice.

Born in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, he was the son of the late George and Minnie (MacGregor) Stewart. He was raised in Southport until the age of five, then moved to Bayfield, Antigonish County. As he took a keen interest in history, he was especially delighted that the home his parents chose was built by Elisha Randall, the first settler in Bayfield. After finishing his schooling in Antigonish, he went to Acadia University (1941-1945) where he earned BA and MA degrees in history. After graduation from Acadia, he was accepted at Columbia University in NYC in the field of political law and government. With his PhD completed, concentrating on constitutional law, he was appointed an assistant professor at Barnard College, the women's undergraduate school at Columbia. For several years he worked part time as a consultant on legal and political philosophy at the Rockefeller Foundation. In 1959, Dr. Somers, the president of StFX, made a proposal that brought him back to the Antigonish university and Bayfield. He entered an election as the Liberal candidate for Antigonish- Guysborough and was elected in 1962, 1963 and 1965. During his time in office as MP, he served as Parliamentary Secretary to The Secretary of State for External Affairs (63-64) and Parliamentary Secretary to The Secretary of State of Canada (64-65) and Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Public Works (66-68). His many portfolios took him worldwide from NATO, to the United Nations, and he represented Canada at President John F. Kennedy's funeral service in Washington. After his riding disappeared through redistribution in 1968, he was asked to stay in Ottawa by then Prime Minister Pierre Elliott Trudeau, where he worked on House of Commons reform, later authoring a book The Canadian House of Commons: Procedure and Reform (1977). He was also a student of and expert on philosopher David Hume and published two books on the subject. He returned to teaching political science at StFX University in 1969. As a teacher, he continued to have an impact on his students, producing Rhodes Scholars in his classes. In 1984, he was appointed to the Senate by Prime Minister Trudeau and served until his retirement in 1999. While a senator, he chaired the Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs and was a member of a number of other committees including Energy and Natural Resources; Fisheries; Banking, Trade and Commerce; and Legal and Constitutional Affairs.
He is survived by many cousins.

Born in Pictou on May 13, 1956, Linda was the daughter of the late John H. and Dorothy (Downs) MacIntosh.
A graduate of St. Francis Xavier University with BA Honours (Mathematics/Minor English), B. Ed. (Secondary), M. Ed. (Administration) as well as an M. Ed. from Saint Mary's University (Curriculum Design). It was while attending St. F.X. that Linda met her soul mate and life long best friend John F. (Jackie) Sullivan. They were married on June 28, 1980 at the University Chapel on the campus of St. Francis Xavier University.
Linda was both a gifted and talented educator. Linda began her teaching career in Atikameg, Alberta before returning to her native Nova Scotia where she taught at Canso High School and Fanning Elementary School. Linda was an exceptional educational leader having served as Principal of numerous schools both in Nova Scotia and Manitoba. Linda was particularly proud of bringing to fruition the vision for Chedabucto Place in Guysborough while serving as Principal of the Guysborough Family of Schools. The inclusion of an African Canadian Heritage Center, a Fitness Center as well as a space for a Performance Arts theatre was both her passion and mission toward creating a centre of excellence that embraced academics, athletics, and the arts and welcomed the broader community to participate as lifelong learners.

Her work ethic was legendary, and her expectation for every student to become the best they could be was non-negotiable.
Linda was a consummate Scottish Bagpiper and was a member of several pipe bands; most notably the Heatherbells from Pictou, Nova Scotia where she was Pipe Major and made many lifetime friendships. Linda put her heart and soul in everything she did and could always be counted on to get the job done and get it done right.

Colbie Caillat and John Legend debut startling new videos celebrating women
- From: news.com.au
- July 14, 2014
IS the tide finally turning for women in music videos?
High-profile singer-songwriters John Legend and Colbie Caillat last week released startling new music videos that seek to celebrate women's imperfections — within just 48 hours of each other.
Caillat's video, for her new single Try , opens with the singer and a variety of other women of various sizes, ages and ethnicities all facing the camera, each glammed-up with hair, makeup, and post-production Photoshop.
As the song continues — its lyrics including "You don't have to try so hard/You don't have to change a single thing" — each of their layers of make-up are stripped back, until each woman finishes the song barefaced:
"When I shot the first scene with no hair and makeup on in front of an HD camera in my face, flashed with bright lights, everyone was watching," Caillat told Elle.
"I thought, 'Oh my god, I bet they're all looking at my blemishes, thinking that I should cover them up, or that I should put some volume in my hair.' But it also felt really cool to be on camera with zero on, like literally nothing on. And then when it got to the full hair and makeup, I actually felt gross. I was just so caked on."
R&B crooner John Legend, who scored a massive number one single here in Australia earlier this year with his single All Of Me, has explored similar themes to Caillat with the video to his follow-up, You & I (Nobody in the World).
With markedly similar lyrics to Caillat's ("You keep wondering if you're what I'm wanting/You don't even have to try," he sings), Legend doesn't even appear in his video, handing it over to a variety of different girls and women, all of whom gaze into the camera as if taking a private, unguarded moment to look in a mirror.
Among the women of different ages and ethnicities are an African American woman with the skin condition vitiligo, a woman displaying the scars from a mastectomy, and a young girl with Down syndrome.
There's even a couple of celebrity cameos in the clip: transgender actor and activist Laverne Cox is shown, as is Legend's wife, model and actor Chrissy Teigen.
Legend has said the video aims to promote positive body image and raise money for charities focused on women and girls via the singer's own #OperationGirl campaign.
Fans have embraced the videos, with many noting that the two singer-songwriters are exploring very similar themes, both lyrically and visually:
Love & respect for John Legend & Colbie Caillat for making videos that don't emphasize beauty being about appearance & loving who you are— Jazmin (@jshnae) July 13, 2014
The release of Colbie Caillat's 'Try' and John Legend's 'You & I' videos are inspiring a beautiful, positive self-image/love yourself trend— Jenny from the Block (@rappelle_moi) July 13, 2014
John Legend and Colbie Caillat both release videos that celebrate all kinds of female beauty, they're pretty inspiring #naturalbeauty— Laura Helena Murphy (@lhm8) July 12, 2014
I absolutely love that people like John Legend and Colbie Caillat are promoting self confidence. "Don't you like you? Cause I like you"— Shianne Pace (@shipace10) July 12, 2014
I'm proud that Colbie Caillat and John Legend are showing that all women are beautiful. Kudos to every woman in the Try and You & I videos.— Ansley Pentz (@ansley_eileen) July 11, 2014
Of course, Legend and Caillat aren't the first to strip away the glitz, glamour and artifice present in the usual music video. Earlier this year, Hungarian singer-songwriter Boggie's used the music video for her song Nouveau Parfum to examine the use of Photoshop on images and how it can distort reality, taking a similar approach to Caillat by putting herself under the microscope:
In recent years, these representations of women — as real, flawed, multifaceted human beings with their own stories to tell — have been the exception in the music industry, not the rule.
Just 12 months ago, the biggest song of the moment was Robin Thicke's Blurred Lines — a song with troubling enough lyrics ("I know you want it," "I hate these blurred lines"), which was accompanied by a video showing Thicke and his buddies cavorting with a bevy of near-nude, expressionless, impossibly perfect-bodied models.
Just a year later, and it seems the backlash has well and truly set in: Thicke's follow-up album sold less than 54 copies in its first week of sale here in Australia.
Of course, female singers themslves are implicit in pushing this impossible beauty ideal to the masses. Pop megastars like Rihanna, Beyonce and Katy Perry take great care to present themselves as nothing other than absolutely flawless in their music videos (Bey's latest single is an ode to self-acceptance called Pretty Hurts, but it should be noted that she's never less than perfectly made up in the accompanying clip).
What do you think of Legend and Caillat's efforts? Do you think the tide could be turning in regards to the representation of women in music videos?

Chris of Melbourne. I almost wasn't going to bother, but I want to balance your ignorance with some positivity about these videos & their message. Good on Calliat and Legend for showing some diversity in a music clip, or in the media in general! Chris, who said anything about blaming men in these videos? Or even in this article?! Why did you feel the need to get defensive about these positive messages and start blaming women that all they do is blame men for their problems! Perhaps you have some insecurities here, I encourage you to look at them. Also, as a woman who struggles with self-acceptance, I don't blame men, but I think it's wise to challenge our society, look at who holds the power (mostly men) and how they try to sell us an image, a product, a person. We simply can't be unaffected by these mainstream messages, and yes, men ARE affected by it too as you said, so we should ALL be celebrating people who show some diversity. And as a man, please don't tell women how they should feel or respond to these messages - because you DON'T know what it's like to live in our bodies and live with the message that the only way to get power or be celebrated is through our bodies/beauty
Rachel Posted at 8:55 AM July 15, 2014
Hypocrite much, Chris of Melbourne? Your one-eyed self delusion is extraordinary.

I can only assume the author is young, and doesn't know about the time before photoshop and the amount of digital manipulation you see today.

Murder was the Case: LA Homicide No. 261, LAPD Investigating Murder-Suicide
The Los Angeles Police Department is investigating the deaths of a married couple who were found dead inside their home on November 2. The deaths of Craig and Donna Edwards are being investigated as a murder suicide.
View Larger Map
According to police reports, patrol officers were called to the 7900 block of McLaren Avenue, near Fallbrook Avenue around 10 a.m. after coworkers discovered the bodies of 66-year-old Donna Edwards and her 62-year-old husband. The coworkers had apparently become concerned after Donna failed to show up for work. The coworkers went to her home and began checking with neighbors, one of which had a key to the Edwards' home. In the home, they found Donna in the master bedroom. She had been shot to death. Her husband was dead on the kitchen floor. It is unclear how Craig Edwards died. Several weapons were recovered from the house, and detectives are still investigating the motive for this incident. Anyone with information should call Topanga division detectives at 818-756-4820.
