Blues Image: Ride, Captain, Ride, Upon Your Mystery Ship

Seventy-three men sailed up from the San Francisco Bay
Rolled off of their ship, and here's what they had to say
"We're callin' everyone to ride along to another shore
We can laugh our lives away and be free once more"

But no one heard them callin', no one came at all
Cause they were too busy watchin' those old raindrops fall
As a storm was blowin' out on the peaceful sea
Seventy-three men sailed off to history

Ride, captain ride upon your mystery ship
Be amazed at the friends you have here on your trip
Ride captain ride upon your mystery ship
On your way to a world that others might have missed.

Michael McDonald, 10/23/2014 07:14:51 am I am Mi'kmaq from Sipeknei'katik (Shubenacadie First Nations) When I was a kid I ask my Grandfather where our flag came from and he told me a story his Grandfather told him, long before any French or English people came to our lands and settled a ship landed on our shores that carried the symbol that is now on our flag, the ship remained for one winter and when spring came the people left. They headed South. My Grandfather told me my people called them Kwasink'kuan (sp?) (sounds like gwah sing gwan) which in English means Run-aways because they were running from something. Many want to believe it was influenced by the church after Chief Membertou was Baptised but the symbol goes back even further than Church's influence.

I offer some added incite ... but no conclusions ...

I lived in Stellerton for a few years in my younger days ... I often heard many of the older men talk about how when the Scottish settler first arrived in the area they discovered a "river of asphalt" flowing from the side of a gentle hill down to the nearby East River. Interestingly enough for me is the fact that near 250 years later this section of Stellerton is still called the "Asphalt" ... a minister by the name of MacGregeor built his house near by and sold the asphalt as pitch for the roofs of the house then being built in nearby Pictou ...

I am Mi'kmaq ... while I believe it is possible that Sinclair was in Acadia ... unlikely ... but possible ... there is no circumstance in which I equate him with Kluskap ... also ... for the record ... for traditional Mi'kmaq, Kluskap is not a god ... perhaps a demigod ... but not a god ...

Niskam is the creator and is the name Lnuk [the people] give
God ...

Mawbeltu [Membertou] was named Henry after the King of France, not Sinclair ...

The Grand Council flag symbols are loosely based on those of a flag legend says was made for Mi'kmaq warriors about to raid New England by Madam La Tour ... this old flag was reputed to have on it a red cross, crescent moon and five sided star on a white background ... the cross was the pre-contact tribal emblem used by the Mirimachi Mi'kmaq ... the five sided star was the tribal emblem used by the Sipekne'katik Mi'kmaq [also the written word for heaven] and the crescent moon was the tribal emblem for the Memramcook ... the current configuration of these emblems is relatively recent and is often credited to Father Pacifique ... although containing the same symbols, with its obvious Christian influence, it is highly unlikely the current Grand Council Flag bears much resemblance to that of Madam La Tours design ... -Nmu'ltes




“Sail Away” by Randy Newman appears on his album, Sail Away (1972). Newman presents “the pitch” of an American slave trader to Africans in Bonny, off the west coast of Nigeria. The slaver sings a song about the wonderful life to be had in Charleston.

Scandinavian cross is named for its use in the national flags of the Scandinavian nations, the term is used universally by vexillologists, in reference not only to the flags of the Nordic countries but to other flags with similar designs. The sideways cross is also known as the Cross of Saint Philip the Apostle, who preached not in Scandinavia but in Greece, Phrygia and Syria instead.

The cross design represents Christianity, and the characteristic shift of the center to the hoist side is early modern, first described the Danish civil ensign (Koffardiflaget) for merchant ships in a regulation of 11 June 1748, which specified the shift of the cross center towards the hoist as "the two first fields must be square in form and the two outer fields must be ​6⁄4 lengths of those". The Danish design was adopted for the flags of Norway (civil ensign 1821) and Sweden (1906), both derived from a common ensign used during the Union between Sweden and Norway 1818–1844, as well as Iceland (1915) and Finland (1917); some of the subdivisions of these countries used this as inspiration for their own flags. The Norwegian flag was the first Nordic cross flag with three colours. All Nordic flags may be flown as gonfalons as well.

A gonfalon
can include a badge or coat of arms, or decoration. Today, every Italian comune (municipality) has a gonfalon sporting its coat of arms. Gonfalone was originally the name given to a neighbourhood meeting in medieval Florence, each neighbourhood having its own flag and coat of arms.

Gonfalons had great significance as Christian religious objects in Europe during the Medieval period, especially in central Italy. These religious objects consisted of a cloth, usually of canvas but occasionally of silk, supported by a wooden frame with a T-shaped support on the back, and a long pole to hold up the banner during ceremonies and processions. From the thirteenth to the sixteenth centuries, plague banners were produced and carried in processions as a way to plead for divine intercession to prevent or cure the plague.

These are the new white mercenaries recruited by the Core Gang status quo Jovenel Moise to keep corruption in power and murder the people. We're told some are Chechenyans (or Eastern Europeans)..... The rumor is Jovenel's oligarchs paid them ONE MILLION each to fight the people and keep the CoreGroup in power in Haiti...

Update: I just heard, with my own ears, one of the properly elected Senators, Antonio CHERAMY senateur de l'Ouest (Don Cato), say on a conference call with the Diaspora, set up by Tele Image's Valerio Saintlouis, that Jovenel Moise and his mafia patrons returned the SAME MERCENARIES who were caught in Haiti before except for the one who spoke to the media afterwards....We will keep you updated as more information on these foreign terrorists come to light. Senator Cato also said 20 of them are on the ground right now. I recorded the info for our archives. We will continue to follow developments. It is horrifying when a group of syndicated foreigners - The Core Group from the Western nations - can gather together in public site, with impunity, to hold a sovereign people hostage in their own country and to hire mercenaries to keep the repression and corruption going. Meanwhile, the world of law, media and civility is deafeningly SILENT.

Management of SBA. The Administrator of SBA, its Deputy Administrator, its Chief Counsel for Advocacy, and its Inspector General are appointed by the President of the United States with the advice and consent of the Senate. The major small business assistance programs of SBA and the general administration of SBA are managed by officials appointed by the Administrator [In 2001, the Chief Operating Officer of the SBA was Field McConnell's sister Kristine Marcy].

1994, Serco positioned Kristine Marcy as director of the Justice Prisoner and Alien Transportation System (JPATS – a.k.a."Con Air") to transport felons including blackmailers, saboteurs and assassins between prisons and, on release or parole, embed them as 8(a) guests in Marriott hotels.

AD claims that in 1996, Serco positioned Maureen Baginski as National Security Agency (NSA) Signals Intelligence Director to bypass the Red Switch with Marriott security systems and modify a Boeing E4B to transmit Zulu timing signals allegedly used by 8(a) guests to synchronize news injects and media plays for the Boeing hijacks of 9/11.
