 Breaking horses

Mistatim about horsemanship. The town's name is the Cree word for "big dog"
the name the Cree gave horses.

Tim's Tip of the Day
|
 Of all the things we do and consider important the fundamental
importance of family, how we support each other, how we work together and how we
verify our very existence, is the ultimate cornerstone of a happy and successful
person. |

Kevin's find of the day
|
Jackson treasures in Public Hands (PDF) This CBS story
reported Friday that millions of dollars of  stuff owned by the Jackson family has been
ceased by Henry Vaccarro for debts as the Jackson family bought his Krammer Guitar
company and never paid for it. The collection contains a lot of stuff about the family
and about Michael Jackson and some of the odd things about him. |

 Robert McAdam
1915 - 2004- Thursday
March 11, 2004
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : At eight-nine we all know that living this
long is a remarkable achievement and this man, former Anglican priest here in Tisdale
has been an important part of this community since arriving here in 1968. This story
was originally done following an interview with Rev. McAdam in April of 2002. When
he read the piece over he was uncomfortable with the way I had reported some of his
remarks particularly those that related to the Catholic church so I removed the article
from Ensign at the time but the story reflected our discussion that
Tuesday morning two years ago and I think sheds a lot of light on the active mind
and conscientious spirit of this fine man.

 The Bush administration breaks international
laws: First with the war against Iraq and now with the ousting of Haitian
President Aristide- Wednesday
March 10, 2004
by : Mario deSantis
Nipawin : The president of Haiti says he was forced out of
office by the Americans and the US Secretary of State Colin Powell says he wasn't
but then Mr. Powell thinks every truck in pre-war Iraq was a weapons factory. International
law is real but the United States has chosen over and over to ignore any responsibility
to the world and how things are legally done.
