Duncan, Norman. 2003. "'Race' Talk: Discourses on 'Race' and Racial Difference." International Journal of Intercultural Relations 27: 135-156.
Marked elevation of discourse accepting notions of race and racial difference within Black South Africans. How those experiencing racism understand experience, negotiated representation issues, problems that impact collective/collective identity (?)
In recent times, growing imperative to recognize: "The right of formerly un- or misrepresented groups to speak for and represent themselves in domains defined, politically and intellectually, as normally excluding them, usurping their signifying and representing functions, over-riding their social reality (Said, in Connor, 1999, p. 264 – here 135).
" In this article ideology is defined as a set of ideas and discursive and material practices aimed at (re)producing and justifying systematic inequalities between 'races' or racialized groups" (see Section 2 below for a full discussion – here 136, footnote 1).
Those who participate in research as participants as "subjects capable of understanding and reflecting, and acting on the basis of this understanding and reflection" (Thompson 1990: 275 – here 137) – no less, while interpreting these data, sociopolitical contexts must be considered.
In keeping with the writings of Fanon (1990) and Biko (1988), a central premise
informing this article is that the manner in which different 'races' are constructed or represented, constitutes the principal means whereby racism as ideology justifies domination. More specifically, it is primarily in terms of the representation of the Self and the Other—with the Self in this case referring to the in-group/'own race', and the Other referring to the out-group(s)/'other race(s)'—that racism is reproduced and justified. Within the ideology of racism, the dominant group represents the Self as fairly homogeneous and fundamentally superior to out-group (up to here 139) — members. Conversely, the ideology invariably attempts to represent the out-group as fragmented and inferior or different. It has been argued that it is essentially by means of this binary representation of the Self and Other that dominant 'races' attempt to justify or defend their privileges and power, and the Other's marginalization and relative lack of power (van Dijk, 1987). Important to note here is that this binary representation does not only serve to justify the Other's oppression. It also fulfills the dominant group's need, firstly, for psychological and social identity and pre-eminence or 'centeredness', and secondly, to undermine any attempts on the part of the dominated at positive self representation (Connor, 1999). The extent of the destructive power of this representation of the Self and Other is reflected in the manner in which it tends to embed itself in the thought structures not only of the dominant and dominated 'races', but also of their post-colonial (/post-Apartheid, in the case of this article) descendants (Connor, 1999). Within the ideology of racism, the construction of the Self and Other obviously do not operate independently. As Miles (1989) asserts, racism 'has a dialectical character insofar as the representation of the Other serves simultaneously to refract a representation of the Self [and vice versa]'' (p. 79). Very important to note here is that just as the representation of the Self and Other constitutes one of the primary ways by means of which racism is justified and reproduced, it also constitutes one of the key ways in which racismis opposed (up to here 140).
Conner (1990): the psychological construction of the Other serves to consolidated anxieties, shortcomings of dominant group.
Bhabha (in Connor, 1999) argues that whites' racist representations of blacks can largely be seen as reflections of unconscious fetishist projections ''of those things which are disavowed by the [white] self. To objectify the frightening forms and forces of irrationality, perversity and evil in the shapes of the subjugated races is reassuringly to distance these forces.'' (p. 265 – here page 149)
Along similar lines, Spencer (in Chanock, 1999) also appears to imply that the negative essentialization of the Other constitutes an important component in imagining or building the ''forms of community and solidarity'' (p. 22) that are required to oppose the domination of the Other (here 149).
Increase in discourses of racial difference as creating protective boundaries, establishing community in response to a dominant Other – presenting them as much more complex than how the Other would display them; acting as point of resistance to experienced and systemic racism.

Vidya's multiple 'shades'
But wait... there is a dark side to this Southern beauty, too. Yeah, her favourite accessory is sunglasses – of all shapes, sizes and super-stylish brands.
The lady can resist shopping clothes, shoes, bags and even her cool kurtas and designer saris, but the minute she spots dark glasses, she turns into a 'shades shopaholic'. Recently, while shooting in Delhi she surprised her staff with the way she went on a shade shopping spree. Well lovely Vids, we aren't as excited about your wide-range of sexy shades. How do we get a closer look at those lovely, deep, brown eyes? Tell us.

Politics can be very dirty. Donna Brazile recently severed ties with CNN after the network asked her to do so. It was matter of jumping before being pushed. Brazile was forced into the role of interim chair of the Democratic National Committee after Debbie Wasserman Schultz was pressured to resign. Prior to stepping into the breach Brazile was a regular contributor on CNN representing the Democratic side of issues.
So why the severing of ties? She has not been on CNN as a panelist since taking on her current role as chair. But the problem was before she took over the reins of the DNC when she, on two occasions, passed along questions to the Hillary Clinton team that would be asked during CNN hosted debates during the primaries thereby giving Clinton a bit of a leg up.
The way this has come to light is via a stolen email. Evidently the Wikileaks folks made public emails hacked – stolen – from Clinton in which Brazile informs of the upcoming questions. It seems odd to me that stealing emails is illegal, but using the information garnered from stolen emails is fine.
What surprises me is that Brazile, who has always struck me as being very intelligent, would have committed the inside information to a written missive. Surely she must have known it was wrong to leak the questions, I'm certain she, as a good Catholic, confessed her misdeed, so why put it in writing? Emails to public figures appear to be stolen on a regular basis these days, so why risk it?
I hope she can eventually return as I enjoy her take on things.

Hawaii is definitely a dream touristic destination for many people and a real paradise on Earth. But this paradise on Earth also has unique ecosystems that are threatened by many invasive species. Hawaii already lost many of its species, mainly because of aggressive and harmful invading species, and according to Hawaii Invasive Species Council at least two series of arthropod pests have arrived on Hawaii each year, for the last ten years. Particularly worrying is the red ant population that already took gigantic proportion.
But there are not only arthropod pests presenting giant problem, but many other invading species such as the brown tree snake and the invading plant Miconia. Hawaii has become subject of such tremendous invasion, mainly through human action as one of the most desirable touristic destinations. Environmentalists predict how each year about 20-50 new species gets introduced to Hawaii, at rate that is about 2 million times more rapid than the usual nature rate.
Hawaii is the home of many unique and beautiful plants and animals that developed in this, once isolated area, and live only in this area which makes this specific and wonderful biodiversity of Hawaiian ecosystems.
US government realized this problem and each year massive funds are being invested to fight this silent invasion that threatens Hawaiian native species. Invading species problem is the extremely serious in Hawaii and the worse invading species problem in entire United States, because species that developed on these islands were isolated for many years and didn't have any natural enemies, and this today makes them more vulnerable to ever-increasing number of invading species.
Unfortunately so, there is still not sufficient public awareness, nor completely reliable pest prevention systems. However there are efforts of many federal and private agencies that work really hard to prevent introduction of these invading species by inspecting incoming cargo in special biosecurity facilities. But there are only few of these facilities so their positive impact isn't that big and will require more funding in order to have any chance in fight against this major ecological problem.

You have all seen vintage photos of little kids in coat carts, taken during the early part of the 20th century. The roving photographers of the time used their goats and carts as a gimmick to have parents pay for photos to be taken of their children, similar to the same way that the photographers brought along ponies. For a while I have collected these little goat cart photos.
Some time ago I did a post about a project that I was getting ready to start. The original post is here if you missed it. I didn't say too much about what I was making because I actually submitted it to Somerset Studio for publication in their January, 2017 issue, "All About Olive". (I did not use the old quilt piece that I showed in that post.) I got it back the other day as it was not published. You win some! You lose some! Though, I must say that the artwork that was published in that issue was so superior to mine. So I thought I'd share a few photos here.
I created this piece in a shabby kind of manner, along the same lines as a Halloween piece that I shared with you a couple of years ago. It is basically a long fabric roll done on a 5-inch wide length of burlap. I thought the olive and pink colors were suitable for a summer theme.
It is about four feet long, including the hanger.
These photos are pretty bad as I didn't have a suitable place
in the house to take them due to the length of the project
and lighting issues in the house.
Here it is displayed on Miss Grace...
The hanger is created from sari ribbon,
and the metal piece is an old drawer pull...
...which sits on top of an old doily that has been
folded in half...
Lots of fabrics.
Silk, velvet, and cotton prints,
along with buttons, laces and ribbon.
And a mother-of-pearl buckle and
grosgrain ribbon and a little rick rack...
The photos had been printed onto fabric,
and I hand-sewed them on...
A pink glass button from my stash,
and more hand stitching to hold the scraps of fabric
On this photo and above I used buttons to replicate
wheels on the goat carts...
I used colored scrim in sections,
and at the bottom is a vintage
crocheted hankie...
This piece has special meaning for me,
because while my husband was in the hospital before and after
his surgery in August, I did the hand sewing portion
whenever he rested.
And the best part,
it matches my studio colors of pink and green.
My studio is the only girly room in our home,
and is a hangover from my single days in my townhouse in Florida,
where shabby chic ruled!!!

Ryan says GOP unity crucial ahead of election
House Speaker Paul Ryan says he wants ''real unification over our common principles and policies'' with Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, who Ryan says is ''getting the nomination.'' Rough Cut (no reporter narration).
ROUGH CUT (NO REPORTER NARRATION) With Donald Trump leading the Republican presidential race, House Speaker Paul Ryan is stressing the need for GOP unification ahead of the fall election. "We all realize that to pretend party unification after one of the most divisive primaries in memory, is to go into the fall at half strength. That is why what we want is real unification over our common principles and policies that we all agree with and believe in," said Ryan, following a meeting with members of the House Republican leadership on Tuesday (May 17). Trump held an hour-long session with Ryan last week. As speaker of the House of Representatives, Ryan is the top U.S. elected Republican and can influence many establishment Republicans leery of Trump. Trump's day in Washington was aimed at laying to rest some of the concerns that persist among Republicans about his incendiary tone and some policy proposals at odds with party doctrine. When asked by a reporter, Tuesday, who Ryan trusts more to lead the Republican party, the Speaker quickly yielded to Trump. "I hope it's Donald Trump, he's getting the nomination," he said.

See the "Early Autumn Sky" at the L&A Dark Sky Viewing Area on September 22nd & 23rd
The Andromeda Galaxy, the Hercules Cluster, and the Ring Nebula among the celestial objects to be highlighted
The Lennox & Addington Dark Sky Viewing Area proudly presents their final stargazing evenings of the 2017 season. Witness the 'Early Autumn Sky' on Friday, September 22nd & Saturday, September 23rd from 9 – 10:30pm (weather permitting).
On hand at the Dark Sky Viewing Area to lead the sessions will be local dark sky enthusiast, Joe Gilker. Joe is a regular visitor to the Dark Sky Viewing Area and has become well-known in astrophotography circles in recent years. Joe will have his telescope and laser pointer on hand for a fun evening at the DSVA. The Andromeda Galaxy, the Hercules Cluster, and the Ring Nebula will be among the celestial objects highlighted during the evening.
Admission is free. Please note that these stargazing sessions are very weather dependent and will take place ONLY IF THE SKY IS MOSTLY FREE OF CLOUDS. Please visit www.DarkSkyViewing.com or www.Facebook.com/darkskyviewing for the most up-to-date information about viewing conditions.
Despite a few 'cloud/rain outs', the monthly 2017 stargazing events remain very popular, with hundreds of visitors attending the monthly two-night events. A large percentage of those in attendance travel to the L&A Dark Sky Viewing Area from urban areas including Windsor, Toronto, Ottawa and beyond. For many, it's the first time that they witnessed a view of the night sky that was unobstructed by the glare of city lights.
Even though this is the last organized public viewing at the Dark Sky Viewing Area this year, the site is always open and admission is always free.
About the Lennox & Addington Dark Sky Viewing Area:
Located 37 km north of Napanee near the Sheffield Conservation Area, the L&A County Dark Sky Viewing Area (7879 County Road 41) is the most southerly point in Ontario that offers a night sky experience very similar to what was available more than 100 years ago. The site includes a large concrete pad for camera or telescope setup, or placement of lawn chairs for general stargazing. While the L&A Dark Sky Viewing Area is ideal for both professional and amateur astronomers and astrophotographers, it is designed for anyone wishing to observe the natural wonder of the stars.

What you need to know:
*Georgia State beach volleyball welcomes five freshmen to the roster.
*Four states are represented in the class of five players
*The 2017 fall beach volleyball schedule will be available soon.
ATLANTA – With classes back in session, the Georgia State beach volleyball team is excited to announce the signing of five freshmen to its program. The coaching staff and players are pleased to welcome Ashley Bauchert, Bekah Brodbeck, Eden Hawes, Mattie Johnson and Meagan McCall to the Panther Family. All five student-athletes enrolled at GSU this fall.
"This freshman class is comprised of quality humans who share a passion for excellence and beach volleyball ", said head coach Beth Van Fleet. "Their commitment to this program and to bettering themselves each day will serve as a great foundation. We are so excited to work with these athletes and watch how they navigate the trials of their freshman year."
From Allen, Texas, Ashley Bauchert began playing beach volleyball during her sophomore year. Bauchert has come in first place at five beach tournaments and placed second at the U-17s Valentine's Day tournament. She led her club team in kills and connected for 86 aces in a single season. Bauchert won the U18 Rox National Championship this July.
"We are thrilled that Ashley has joined our program", said coach. "She brings a strong fundamental base to our team, works hard and processes information quickly. We expect her to play a split blocking role which will capitalize on her speed and nimbleness."
Rebekah Brodbeck was a four-time letter winner at Smithson High School in San Antonio, Texas. She is also a four-time top ten finisher at the AAU National Championships. Bekah placed second in the 2015 Rox National Championship, third in the Texas Women's AVP Open in 2016, and ninth in the 2016 BVCA National Championship.
"Bekah is a workhorse and her beach IQ and willingness to take risks allow her to make unpredictable plays", said Van Fleet. "Her love for the game shines through her interaction with her teammates. We foresee Bekah filling a blocking roll for us this year."
Freshman, Eden Hawes joins the Panther Family from Panama City Beach, Fla. As senior at J.R. Arnold High School, Hawes placed first at the USAV National Championships in and the CBVA Pacific Palisades. She ranked third in USAV as an 18 year-old and finished in the top two at 13 tournaments as a beach player. Hawes also finished in first at the California Beach Association tournament. Recently, Hawes was named AVCA Beach High School All-American Honorable Mention.
"Eden is another excellent new teammate for the Panther Family. Her court awareness and vision will help her transition smoothly into the college game", said coach Beth. "We look forward to watching her grow as a full-time defender this year."
Mattie Johnson, a native of Tabor City, N.C., comes to Georgia State from South Columbus High School. As an indoor player, the four-year letterwinner was named Player of the Year in the Three Rivers Conference the past two seasons.
Johnson also earned All-Conference honors in each of her last three seasons. She gained valuable experience on the sand as a member of USAV Beach High Performance and the A2 National Team in 2015 and 2016. Johnson helped her indoor team to four consecutive titles and a record of 85-8.
"Mattie is an explosive athlete who adds depth and excitement to our roster. Her ability to flourish under pressure is one of her greatest strengths and she does it with a smile", commented Van Fleet. "We plan to see Mattie in a split blocking role this year – but she can also fulfill a full-time blocker or defender assignment when needed."
Meagan McCall comes to GSU from Phoenix, Arizona where she was named Sandra Day O'Connor's team MVP. Meagan made the final four in the Arizona Beach Volleyball State Playoffs in her senior season. McCall was able to reach Gold Division in AAU Nationals, AAU Junior Olympics, and BVCA. Meagan was also a three-time letter winner in court volleyball.
"Meagan is a fast, deceptive, versatile beach athlete and she is a small defender who makes big plays. She has a fast arm and is very fun to watch", praised Van Fleet. "We are delighted that she's part of our program and we look forward to watching her compete as a full-time defender."
Beth Van Fleet and the entire beach volleyball program cannot wait to welcome these well-rounded student-athletes to the Panther Family.

I get phone calls from customers from years past – just calling to say 'hello'. That means more to me than anything. Customers are the lifeblood of our business and I treat every one of them like a part of our family; not just another client." – Rusty Krouse

A difficult task with the high quality of posters produced.
7BU were the winners with their excellent poster, 7SL and 7SN were runners up.
7106 7SL runners up 255
7106 7SN runners up 255

There is change in the air. Just over 2 years ago, the UK vegan population apparently numbered around 2%, or 1.2 million. Now apparently it stands at 7 million, and it's still growing.
We only need to look at the shelves in our supermarkets to realise that something is happening.
First, we saw a dramatic rise in the presence of 'free from' aisles, no longer assigned to some dark corner of the shop and covered in dusty old unappealing boxes. Then came the visible growth in plant-based products being stocked in fridges, shelves and the freezer sections of most mainstream supermarkets. More recently we have seen celebrity vegan chefs growing in visibility and increasing the 'cool' factor of veganism, and in my mind, that's no bad thing. People may finally stop thinking veganism = deprivation, a dour attitude and a shocking health status, when in fact quite the opposite is true.
Derek & Chad Sarno are two brothers bringing compassionate cooking and heart centred eating into the mainstream, and there are many fabulous vegan and raw food chefs who've been raising awareness for decades before this too. In Derek & Chad's case, their brand Wicked Healthy has started to revolutionise the aisles in Tesco! OK, for me there are some "issues" in so far as most of the meals are microwaveable only at present, and come in standard plastic containers, 2 things that bug the hell out of me, however, these are good guys doing good things to change people's perspectives, and Rome wasn't built in a day right? Their pizzas are delicious! The other stuff is too if you don't mind microwaves.
So why are more people being called to a plant based life and what are the reasons for doing so?
1. Health awareness
2. Environmental awareness
3. Animal cruelty and suffering awareness.
These three things are generally the leading reasons why people start to make a shift.
For me, I knew many years ago that my food wasn't making me well and that my body was struggling to process meat, refined foods, sugar, dairy, gluten and more, but I had no idea how to really change that. I knew tons about juicing for health, but little about food, and as someone less confident in that area, I was worried I'd live off falafels and hummus alone, as many have done in the not too distant past I'm sure!
I had been successfully conditioned to believe that no meat = deprived of protein, and if I'm honest at that point, also of flavour. I'd grown up on meat and dairy, yet I never really liked milk or the flavour of lots of meat based products. The more we do something though, the more 'natural' it seems to be. Eating habits are trained, become 'normalised' and suddenly choices to become vegan are deemed "politically correct" rather than being heart led, or compassion led, which they certainly are for me.
I don't actually give much of a damn about "political correctness" - sure I'm sensitive to life and to views differing from my own, but my choices to become vegan weren't born from that at all. Health was the thing that started me on the road to changing my diet, and the cleaner I got, the better I felt, and the better I felt, the more I looked into stuff.
I looked into the environmental impact of farming, air miles, pesticides, processing, pollution, the whole shebang, which also applies to fruit and veggies too of course. Then both of my daughters went vegan; one previously a die-hard meat consumer who literally went vegan overnight after watching Earthlings, Forks Over Knives and Conspiracy (all available on Netflix and some on Youtube too.) She watched them pretty much back to back, wept and wept, and then simply said "I will never eat meat again". And she hasn't.
Observing her commitment and passion, I realised that my trendy "plant based" label was allowing me to avoid making that last 5% switch to veganism. If I say I'm "plant based" I won't be lying if I sneak in the odd bit of dairy right? I didn't want to say I was vegan as I equated that, rightly or wrongly, with militancy, deprivation (still) and rigidity, so why was I afraid of making the leap into committed veganism?
I think I've worked that out now and in part, it relates to the image above.
People choosing veganism are often called out for being "preachy" or needing to tell you about their veganism. Well of course we do! If I don't I don't get the food I want to eat, and if I know its been prepared without a real awareness of, or caring about the use of animal based ingredients, I'm gonna let you know! Just because meat has been the mainstream and therefore omnivores don't need to tell you what they can't eat, well that doesn't make non-meat eaters 'preachy' for having to ask or speak up. Also, I've never liked 'labels' but what I do like is principles, so I began to realise that sticking to my 'principles' was what I was doing, rather than labelling myself.
And then there's the activism that starts to come your way....
Once you've seen for yourself how things work, how this food gets to your plate, it's pretty impossible to ignore the level of suffering involved. Once seen, you can't 'unsee' and so for me, things just began to unravel. How could I let my money pay for the suffering of another sentient being? I couldn't. Politics and political correctness didn't event come into it, it was my heart that led the way. I don't miss anything I used to eat any more. I've finally made peace with the 'cheese thing' too. There are so many incredible alternatives around these days.
People change, the world changes, traditions change. If they didn't we wouldn't evolve. We wouldn't know how to 'grow' as a human race, we would question nothing, and stay locked in our conditioning, but we do know how to enquire, listen, observe and create change, and how wonderful is that ability to be discerning.
As this well known quote by Margaret Mead says:
"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has."
So, with another well known quote "keep on doing what you've always done, and you'll always get what you've always got" I'll end here. I could say more, I probably will in another blog, but for now, let's just talk about this stuff and stay open to change. Let's support businesses that are doing more for the animals, the earth and our health, and make the 7 million, 7 billion and rising! It's totes possible!

Last week, the Student Loan Ranger heard from a lot of panicked student loan borrowers who had read about a lawsuit that several borrowers and the American Bar Association filed against the Department of Education. These individuals had submitted employment verification certificates under the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program and were initially told that their employers, including the ABA, were considered eligible under the program.
Unfortunately, upon the Department of Education's further review, their eligibility approval was rescinded, meaning that eligible payments they made while working for these employers would no longer count toward the 120 they needed to obtain forgiveness under the PSLF program.

Listen to voters over turbines
Our community of Glyncorrwg has been fighting proposals to erect wind turbines in our village for many years.
We have been horrified at the possibility of huge turbines, which would have dwarfed the BT Tower in Cardiff, but the current madness is an attempt to gain permission to erect four structures, each in excess of 600ft high – almost 100ft higher than Blackpool Tower.
Surely our elected representatives at the Welsh Assembly have to stop these blinkered organisations and take more note of the opinions of the vast majority who do not want wind turbines in anyone's back yard.

Stockport Exploration Inc. Announces Definitive Agreement for Amalgamation With Sona Nanotech Ltd.
Halifax, Nova Scotia, March 26, 2018 -- Stockport Exploration Inc. (TSXV: SPT) ("Stockport" or the "Company")</a> further to the Company's press release dated September 18, 2017, is pleased to announce that it has entered into a definitive agreement (the "Agreement") providing for the amalgamation of the Company with Sona Nanotech Ltd. ("Sona") pursuant to the Canada Business Corporations Act (the "Amalgamation") to form an amalgamated company to be called "Sona Nanotech Inc." ("Amalco") as the resulting listed issuer. Sona is a private company existing under the laws of Nova Scotia, with its operations in Nova Scotia. As a pre-condition to the Amalgamation, shareholders of Sona will be required to approve continuance of Sona as a corporation under the Canada Business Corporations Act.
Overview of Sona
Sona is a nanotechnology life sciences firm that has developed two proprietary methods for the manufacture of rod shaped gold nanoparticles. The principal business carried out and intended to be continued by Sona is the research and development of its proprietary technology for use in multiplex diagonostic testing platforms that will improve performance over existing tests in the market.
Sona's gold nanorod particles are CTAB (cetyltrimethylammonium) free, eliminating the toxicity risks associated with the use of other gold nanorod technologies in medical applications. It is expected that Sona's gold nanotechnologies may be adapted for use in applications, as a safe and effective delivery system for multiple medical treatments, pending the approval of various regulatory boards including Health Canada and the FDA.
The Amalgamation
Pursuant to the terms of the Amalgamation, every four (4) common shares of Stockport will be exchanged for one (1) common share of Amalco (the "Amalco Shares"); and every 1.5802 common shares of Sona (the "Sona Shares") will be exchanged for one (1) Amalco Share, subject to the approvals of the shareholders of both Sona and Stockport by a special majority of at least two-thirds of the votes cast in person or by proxy (a "Special Resolution"), and the acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV" or the "Exchange). The Amalgamation is also subject to the approval of the shareholders of Stockport by a majority of the minority shareholders ("Majority of the Minority Approval"). Amalco will issue approximately 44,199,520 Amalco Shares, approximately 50% to the former shareholders of Sona and 50% to the former shareholders of Stockport (not including the Private Placement, described below).
Concurrently with the Amalgamation, a private placement of 4,000,000 common shares at a price of $0.50 per share, to raise aggregate gross proceeds of $2,000,000 (the "Private Placement"), is proposed. A finder's fee of 7.5% cash and the issuance of finder's share purchase warrants to acquire up to 300,000 common shares at an exercise price of $0.50 for two years from the date of completion of the Private Placement is proposed to be payable in connection with the Private Placement as permitted under the policies of the Exchange. The finder's fee will be paid to Numus Capital Corp., a private company controlled by a director and a Technical Consultant of the Company. The net proceeds from the Private Placement will be used by the resulting issuer to fund its business development and for general working capital.
In connection with the proposed Amalgamation, the Company has engaged Evans & Evans, Inc., an independent consulting firm, to review the business of Sona and prepare a valuation report. Each of the boards of directors of the Company and Sona has also formed an independent special committee to review and evaluate the Amalgamation, and make recommendations to their respective boards.
Upon completion of the Amalgamation, it is expected that Amalco will meet the public distribution requirements of an Exchange Tier 2 technology or life sciences issuer. James Megann, the President and Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company, is also a director and a principal shareholder of Sona. As a result, the Amalgamation is a non-arms length transaction under the policies of the Exchange. No deposit or loan advance has been made to Sona by the Company.
The Company must convene a special meeting of its shareholders for the purpose of obtaining shareholder approval to the Amalgamation by Special Resolution and Majority of the Minority Approval, in accordance with the policies of the Exchange and applicable securities legislation. Sona must also convene a special meeting of its shareholders for the purpose of obtaining shareholder approval to the Amalgamation by Special Resolution (collectively, the "Shareholders' Approvals").
The completion of the Amalgamation will be subject to certain mutual conditions precedent, including:
Overview of Management and the Board of Directors

The League of Women Voters, well-known promoters of good government, endorsed Prop 1 yesterday. In a letter to the campaign, the League cited increased checks and balances and responsiveness to the people as reasons for their endorsement.
The League also cited these benefits of Home Rule:
- Allow counties the authority to determine organization, procedures and powers of their own government;
- Deliver a maximum of freedom for control by either the state legislature or state administrative offices;
- Allow true local government with freedom of choice in establishing a form of county government;
- Provide the county the power to meet the needs of their citizens; and
- Prevent legislative interference in matters relating only to county affairs.

I have encroaching crab grass that has taken over roughly half of my backyard. How do I deal with it?
The Hammer of Truth has a lot on of info and analysis of the ATF hearings, including snippets of testimony. Meanwhile, Bitter tells us that the Brady Bunch is standing by its original claim that breaking the law is OK if it's under the guise of sensible gun control.
Locks only work where they're attached: proper training works everywhere.
From reader Addison, the war on Wal-Mart is heating up. But this isn't really a post about the War on Wal-Mart, rather it's a post about this bit of wisdom from the .gov:
Mr. Hubbard noted how effective splitting the difference can be in moving legislation toward a larger goal. "If you give up 80% of what you want to get 20%," he said, "after five years you will have nothing left to give up." Mr. Hubbard also noted a quirk in the system that made raising taxes and expanding the Medicaid rolls attractive. With the federal government paying half or more of every dollar spent on Medicaid, states were essentially leaving federal dollars on the table by not expanding the program.
Wal-Mart is falling victim to a war of attrition. But that's how everything is treated by the .gov that they don't like. There will never be a repeal of the fourth amendment. The war against it is to nitpick under the guise of reasonable and to keep at it until it is merely a quaint novelty item written by some old dudes over 200 years ago. Same with taxes and gun regulations. At last count, the tax code was 653 sections and near 1,400,000 words. I never thought it was a nefarious plot to just grow the tax code into the monstrosity that it is. In the past, I'd always thought that such attrition was merely the nature of the leviathan that is our .gov or, more reasonably, a function of bureaucratic bungling. Now, thanks to Mr. Hubbard, there are those who engage in this nonsense intentionally. One inch at a time.
In an effort to raise awareness of the second amendment, the The Tiger Town Observer's editor Andrew Davis is having a raffle for an AK and a Marlin rifle:
An independent student newspaper at Clemson University that last week published Danish cartoons of Muhammad is sponsoring a drawing this week for an AK-47 assault rifle, stirring some student and faculty protests.
Andrew Davis, editor-in-chief of the conservative tabloid The Tiger Town Observer, said his purpose is to celebrate the Second Amendment's guarantee of the right to bear arms.
Kids today.
Tim says he won't own a gun because he's a pacifist. Blake says you can be an armed pacifist. I concur. As someone who is generally armed, I can tell you that I will not use a weapon if the only thing I risk losing is material wealth. I could care less. I have insurance. However, the threat of violence to me or my loved ones will be met with force. That said, a couple of Tim's ideas leapt out at me:
The fact that my wife "naturally" does not consider reacting to violence with violence fills me with wonderment and awe. Honestlyif someone on the highway cuts her off and flips her the bird, Sue just smiles and waves at the aggressive driver. I admire her so much for that. For whatever reason, the notion of countering violence or aggression with compassion is a relatively new concept for me. However, it is a concept that I buy into with my entire body, heart, mind, and soul.
This passage implies to me that he was, at least until recently, the kind that would engage an aggressive driver in a bit of aggression himself. If that's the case, it's probably for the best that you not arm yourself. Full disclosure: When someone flips me off in traffic, I blow them a kiss too but it's because I'm a smart ass and not out of compassion. Additionally, he says:
It seems reasonable to me that if I am futzin' around with a firearm or some other kind of lethal weapon, whether that weapon is on my person, in my vehicle, under my bed, or wherever, then I am probably concerned more with fear than I am with loving and caring about my family and other ones who are dear to me.
This is the kinder gentler way of saying that gun-nuts are scared folks with little penises. And it doesn't fly. Sure, some folks like me (a self professed gun nut) do seem preoccupied with guns and that's only because I think they're fun. It's a hobby. But in the event I was not a gun nut, I'd very likely still own a handgun for home defense because, here in the real world, idealism isn't worth a squirt of piss when it comes to defending those I love. And it is not that I'm scared or in fear or this ridiculous notion that I'm scared more than I love my family. It's realism. Study after study has shown that active armed resistance is the best way to deal with a violent situation. More:
Speaking only for myself, Sue and I have a home security system, and we have security systems in our vehicles. In the past, I have had my material possessions ripped offit isn't the greatest feeling in the world, but, after all, they are only replaceable material possessions. In moments of meditation, the worst thing I can think of would be for harm to come to someone I love. Yes, that would be tragically painful. On the other hand, I nonetheless cleave to the belief that countering violence with violence is not a solution to the problem of fear.
No one I know is intimating that countering violence with violence is a solution to the problem of fear. Rather, countering violence with violence is a solution to the problem of violence. Again, the implication is that those who choose to be prepared are scared. Perhaps in some hippie, tree-hugging fantasy land where houses are painted with pixie dust and the streets are made of lollipops, this plan might work. But here in the real world, I'll trust a gun over the compassion of a robber/ rapist /mugger /murderer any day.
My advice: You should hope for the best but be prepared for the worst.
MGI has introduced their modular AR-15 weapon system. You can see some detailed pics here. You can buy it here. It's a neat concept. The lower receiver has interchangeable magazine wells so the weapon can take either AR-15 magazines or AK-47 Magazines. It also has a quick change barrel system so that you can swap between your 5.56 and 7.62X39 barrels. It basically gives you one AR-15 that can fire multiple calibers. Interesting concept. However, I see no prices listed and I'd say for the price of that thing, you could just buy two AR-15s.
The head of the Illinois Senate said Monday that lawmakers are unlikely to approve an assault weapons ban one of Gov. Rod Blagojevichs priorities this spring.
I dont think anything will happen with that (this year), said Senate President Emil Jones Jr., D-Chicago. He said the measure would be very difficult to pass through his chamber.
And it's still amusing to watch the press peddle this lie:
The federal ban on manufacturing and importing certain military-style weapons expired in September 2004. Since Congress did not reinstate it, each state must decide whether to impose its own ban.
Wrong. It was a limit on the number of aesthetic features which weapons that look like military-style weapons could have.
Unless you want to debate what exactly that just compensation is:
When Brian Adamek bought a couple hundred acres of rich black land soil from his father two years ago, he says he was planning for his future and the future of his wife and 3-month-old son.
But his dreams may be dashed if the city follows through with its plan to expand a nearby landfill by using its power to condemn his property for what city officials consider the greatest public good.
City officials approached Adamek about his property a year and a half ago, offering $630 an acre for land he said he bought for $730 an acre from his father just a few months prior. Failure to accept that offer, Adamek said he was told, could mean he could get absolutely nothing for it should the city move forward with the authority enabled to them under the powers of eminent domain.
Public good is not public use. And the threat of taking the land and not paying seems a bit of an overreach.
Not every day you see a TeeVee commercial for a gun store. Heh.
Take this survival quiz. According to it, I'd be dead in the event of terror/crime and a dog or shark attack. I disagree with its assessment of dog attacks and dealing with criminals. But different strokes.
Ya know, when the skin heads are a better model for public behavior than the alternatives, society has some issues.
The guys at Uzi Talk asked the ATF if, as reported by everyone including me, an SBR was required to be engraved when made my an individual out of an existing firearm. They ATF said it was not required. Cool. They have a scan of the letter.
Update: Some snark in the comments at Uzi Talk:
And the ATF says, that Oly Arms can replace M16 receivers, oh wait no they say they can't sorry, you guys who had your receivers replaced with post 86 manuf. recievers are grandfathered, wait we will have to review that opinion.
The ATF says you can't have a short barrel TC and a Buttstock and rifle barrel kit. Oh wait they changed thier mind.
The ATF says you can't have a home based, FFL, and you must provide a floor plan of your shop to the ATF with the locations of your firearms. Wait a minute we were just making shit up again, nevermind.
The ATF says that inline muzzle loading rifles are modern firearms because they ignite with modern primer ignition, oh wait we change our minds again but we are sure that 209 shotgun primers are actually ammunition and convicted felons can not buy shotgun primers. Check with us next week to be sure.
The ATF says the lower receiver of an AR15 is a firearm the upper receiver is parts. The ATF says the lower reciever of a FAL is a spare part and the upper receiver is a firearm. The ATF says the pistol frame of a Browning buckmark is a firearm and the barrel/slide assy. is a spare part. The ATF says the grip fram of the Ruger 22 pistol is a spare part, and the barrel/slide assy. is a firearm.
The ATF says model rockets motors over 1/4 oz of solid fuel is a destructive device requiring registration, oh never mind they are just rocket motors after all. The ATF says if a firearm fires more than one projectile with a single pull of a trigger it's a machinegun, but a 12ga shotgun shooting 12 pellet 38 caliber with one pull of the trigger is not a machinegun. The ATF says a rifles bore weapon over 50 caliber is a destructive device, but 12ga rifled barrels shooting slugs, and 600 and 700 nitro express, well our banker friends like to hunt with those so they are sporting rifles, but a Boys 55 rifle is destructive even though a boys converted to 50BMG is more powerfull it's non-destructive.
See a pattern here. ATF gives opinions, congress and legislature make laws.
An ATF opinion is not worth the FFL newsletter it is written on.
I've been pondering the reasons why some media outlets have refused to run the Mohammed cartoons. The only reason I can conclude is that theyre pussies. See, theyd trot out pictures of Kanye West as Jesus or Piss Christ or whatever else may offend Western religious groups without batting an eye. Why is that? Is it because offending Christians rarely results in mass riots, firebombing buildings and stoning people? I think so. I think they either fear more riots or, more likely, themselves becoming targets of this zealous nonsense. I think their refusal may be racist.
That is not to say that all Muslims are violent and prone to such things. Of course, some Christian folks have been known to firebomb abortion clinics.
Update: And to be clear, the allegation of racism is meant to be snarky. But the allegation that they're pussies is not.
It's accepted wisdom among folks who travel with guns not to go through New York or New Jresey or any of the airports. Even though you may go out of your way to lawfully transport a secured and unloaded firearm, the overzealous laws there require the police to arrest you for it. Said policy is being legally challenged:
The Association of New Jersey Rifle & Pistol Clubs, Inc. (ANJRPC) announced that it has commenced a lawsuit against the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey and one of its police officers for wrongfully arresting and imprisoning for nearly five days a 57-year old Utah man delayed at Newark Airport by a baggage error while traveling from Utah to Pennsylvania.
The lawsuit seeks more than $3 million in damages for civil rights violations and a permanent injunction forcing the Port Authority to follow Federal law on interstate transport of locked, unloaded firearms that have been secured in luggage and declared by law-abiding citizens.
The Utah man, Gregg Revell, a real estate broker and family man with no criminal record and a Utah firearms permit, was flying alone from Salt Lake City, UT to Allentown, PA to retrieve a car he bought and drive it home. He was travelling with a firearm for personal protection. As required by Federal law, the firearm was unloaded, cased, locked and inside his luggage when he declared it at check-in in Salt Lake City on March 31, 2005.
Due to an airline-caused baggage error, Mr. Revell missed his connection from Newark to Allentown and had to stay overnight in New Jersey. When he checked in at Newark Airport the next morning to complete his travels, he again declared his firearm, as required by FAA regulations. He was then arrested for possession of a firearm without a New Jersey state license, and imprisoned in Essex County jail for five days until his family arranged bail, which had been initially set unusually high at $15,000 cash (no bond).
But Mr. Revells travels were protected by the Firearms Owner Protection Act, a Federal law passed in 1986 to protect law-abiding citizens who travel with firearms. (See 18 U.S.C. § 926A.) That law trumps state and local gun laws and protects interstate travel with firearms under certain circumstances, all of which were present in Mr. Revells case. Several months after the arrest, all charges were withdrawn and the prosecutors case administratively dismissed.

It takes balls to claim you shot someone in self-defense when you were busy shooting up a mall:
Brendan Dan McKown, the most seriously injured of the Tacoma Mall shooting victims, disputed Dominick Sergio Maldonados claim that he shot McKown in self-defense.
My gun was out of sight, and he had a gun out, said McKown, a stand-up comic who worked as a store manager at the mall. When he brought his weapon up on me, thats when I drew. Admittedly, I had my hand on my gun.
Besides, he said, its kind of hard to claim self-defense when youre shooting up the mall.
Indeed, prosecutors say Maldonado would have no self-defense claim, even if his version of events were true. Legally, if someone is the first aggressor, self-defense isnt an issue.
Maldonado is an idiot.
It might be the most popular idea in the Tennessee General Assembly this session.
Lawmakers from both parties have introduced a flurry of bills to restrict government from using eminent domain to seize property and turn it over to private developers.
There have been 59 bills filed to limit the use of eminent domain – dozens each in the House and the Senate, submitted by both Democrats and Republicans.
Lawmakers say the issue is one of the first things their constituents want to talk about, and there's broad support for the idea across parties and interest groups.
Good to see pressure put on them.
"In Tennessee, property rights almost rise to the level of being sacred," said Rep. Joe Fowlkes, D-Cornersville, vice chairman of a joint committee studying eminent domain. "When people think that their private property might be taken from them and given to another person, it stirs them up."
I don't think it's almost, I think it is.
Yesterday at the gun show, I saw the most odd beast of a gun. It was some evil black rifle looking contraption that had a shotgun barrel up top and a 5.56Nato barrel down below. One trigger operated both and you selected which to fire via a little switch. I should have written the name down but didn't. Can't remember what it's called to link to it. If anyone knows, let me know.
I'm not interested in buying one just thought it was odd.
Update: Thanks to Tam, it's a Crossfire (other link here). Odd looking thing.
Charles picked up a new toy. One of these. Charles, post pics!
It is amusing to me that when the Century CETMEs came out, they could be had for about $300. At the recent gun show, they were going for $500 plus. Not sure if it's that dealers had no idea what they were or if they were just trying to rip folks off.
They are surprisingly low. Jeff says:
If people really want to be safe, they should get rid of all their furniture!
It was called Senate File 79, a proposed law that would have allowed hunters to carry automatic weapons such as machine guns into the woods. And to equip those guns with Godfather-style silencers.
Which conjured up some negative images. People using the silenced guns for poaching of wildlife, for example. And, of course, the image of the Soprano family vacationing in Wyoming, being insulted by an elk and having it whacked.
However, the proposal went on to say that while hunters – who make up more than half the population in this wildlife-rich state of just more than 500,000 people – would be allowed to have the automatic weapons and silencers, it would remain illegal to actually use them for hunting.
People have these morbid fantasies that sound suppressors were regulated as part of the 1934 National Firearms Act due to mafia style hits or some such. Actually, they were regulated because people at the time of The Depression were using them to hunt on restricted Federal land to avoid getting arrested.
Suppressors do serve a safety function because the report of a firearm can do significant damage to your hearing. When hunting, other hearing is just not desirable as you cant hear other things in the woods. Makes sense to me to allow them for hunting. In other countries, suppressors arent regulated that extensively and there are suppressor only ranges to avoid hearing loss and to keep from annoying your neighbors.
Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia fondly remembers carrying a rifle around New York as a boy and says outdoorsmen should attack the idea that guns are used only for crimes.
[unnecessary reference to Cheney hunting removed – what media bias?]
"The attitude of people associating guns with nothing but crime, that is what has to be changed," Scalia told the audience of about 2,000.
"I grew up at a time when people were not afraid of people with firearms," said Scalia, noting that as a youth in New York he was part of a rifle team at the military school he attended.
In Illinois, there is a bill to ban manufacture of weapons that look like assault weapons. There a some pretty prominent gun makers there, like ArmaLite and Les Baer. I've never understood why manufacturers operate in such states, you have Colt in Connecticut and S&W in Massachusetts as well. And it seems only reasonable that it's only a matter before the powers that be turn their sights on you and, in Illinois, they have.
So, to all you gun makers out there, consider moving to a free state.
Josh Sugarmann, executive director of the Washington D.C.-based Violence Policy Center, said his group backs the law and handgun bans generally but that it chose not to participate in the San Francisco case because of a lack of resources.
Can you spot the machine gun in this picture:
Look close. It's the shoe string. Notice the metal tab? It contains a serial number. That is a post 1986 dealer machine gun registered in the NFA's NFRTR database as a machine gun. It was subject to significant paperwork and made by a special occupational taxpayer.
Someone once asked the ATF if such a device was a machine gun. They said it was. So, some smart ass made and registered one. It works similarly to bump firing except it uses the charging handle of the Mini 14 (instead of the guns recoil) to which it is attached to reactivate the trigger once it has been reset. In short, pull the key ring for full-auto fire.
Similarly, I'm pondering writing a letter to the ATF to ask them if I should have my finger registered because I know how to bump fire a semi-automatic rifle.

Buying and selling at the same time? Then you may need to look into bridging finance.
In an ideal world, you'd sell your current property at the same time you buy your next home — but, unfortunately, it rarely happens like that.
Extenuating circumstances may force you to buy a new home before you sell your current place.
And while buying before you sell certainly has its upsides – you only have to move once, you don't have to find interim accommodation etc – there are some things you need to consider before doing it.
Bridging finance
Often, when you buy a new home before you've sold your current place you will need some sort of finance or loan to help you afford owning two properties at once.
This loan or finance is often referred to as a 'bridging loan'. Just like other home loan products, a bridging loan offers you the flexibility of choosing either a fixed or variable rate.
Just like other home loan products, a bridging loan offers you the flexibility of choosing either a fixed or variable rate.
Unlike your traditional home loan however, bridging finance has a shorter loan term – generally anywhere between six and 12 months – and the interest rate on this type of loan is often higher than a standard variable loan.
While some lenders will charge the standard variable rate on a bridging loan, others will adjust their interest rate based on your circumstances and how risky they consider your situation to be.
Making repayments
Before taking out a bridging loan, it's important to know what you are getting yourself in for. In the first instance, it's important to know how your mortgage repayments are calculated during the bridging period and how much needs to be paid.
It's important to know how your mortgage repayments are calculated during the bridging period and how much needs to be paid.
While the sale of your existing home goes through, the minimum repayments are usually calculated on an interest only basis. Depending on your lender you may be able to capitalise all repayments until the sale is completed. Of course, it's important to note that if you do take this option, your peak debt will increase which increases the overall interest you will pay.
Wherever possible, making some repayments is recommended so that if you have trouble selling your current place, you will not have an additional six months repayments added to your loan amount (instead, the amount to be added to your loan will be reduced by whatever you have already repaid).
Is it right for me?
Before taking out a bridging loan, it's important to understand the pros and cons of this type of finance.
One of the key negatives associated with bridging finance is that these loans do tend to be slightly more expensive than a regular mortgage. That said, they do provide the benefit of time so that you're able to wait and achieve the best possible selling price for your home rather than being in a position where you're forced to accept a lower offer.
If you're in a position where you think you may need a bridging loan, it's worth speaking to a professional. A mortgage broker will be able to step you through the whole process and identify whether or not this is the right option for your needs.

Bloodsoaked have a new album out on September 2nd called Religious Apocalypse. As you may guess from their name and that of the LP, they're generally a pretty heavy act, best fitting into the death metal genre.
So of course they've covered "You're In Love" by Ratt. Actually, they've also covered Cinderella's "Shake Me", so you can have a listen to that as well.
Both covers feature the distortion and harsh vocals you'd expect from Bloodsoaked, while the songs themselves are otherwise pretty much untouched – and this includes the occasionally indulgent, and very non-death metal squeal of a bent and whammy-bar'd note.
Nice to see a heavier band demonstrating both a sense of humour and a respect for something very much outside of their genre. I can also tell you that the album itself is pretty good as I've had a listen to it. And the rest of the stuff is much heavier than these tracks!
