"DIFFERENT tribes, races and politicians have come together and fought long and hard for a united Namibian nation. If we do no stay united, but allow divisions to come between tribes and languages and races and politicians, we will go back from where we came," the Deputy Minister of Agriculture, Water and Forestry, Peter Iilonga, has warned.
He was speaking at Karibib on Wednesday during the official ending of an 'intervention agreement' between NamWater and the Karibib Town Council.
In terms of the agreement, implemented eight years ago, NamWater took full control of the town's water to help Karibib pay back a N$2 million debt.
The agreement came to an end on Wednesday and control of the water services was handed back to the town council because both parties felt that the town was now ready to properly manage its own affairs.
Iilonga's comments latched onto a comment by NamWater CEO Vaino Shivute that in order for towns to be run efficiently, there must be "diligent smart management", and that poor management was blamed on a lack of commitment from the town's leaders and their staff.
"The councillors are elected on the basis of their party manifesto, whichever party they are representing. But the recent history of some local authorities in Namibia is not encouraging at all - if anything, one can describe this situation as a letdown to the inhabitants of the particular [towns] concerned. Forget about politics and tribalism," said Iilonga. "It's politics and tribalism that are destroying Africa nations."
According to him, supporters of different political parties are telling fellow residents that they should not pay their municipal accounts because of their opposition to the political views of the town's leaders.
"It's these issues that lead to poor administration and make the community suffer," he said.
He said all leaders, no matter their party or tribe, must have the same determination to develop Namibia, in unity, and to ensure that quality services are delivered to the citizens.

Left alive and wild, a single shark worth $1.9 millionJeremy Hance
May 02, 2011
Tourism in Palau makes sharks worth more alive than dead finds a new study. Here a diver in Palau swims with five reef sharks. Photo by: Todd Essick.
"Sharks can literally be a 'million-dollar' species and a significant economic driver," explained Mark Meekan, principal research scientist at AIMS, in a press release. "Because of their low rates of reproduction and late maturity, shark populations have been driven into a global decline due to fishing. Yet our study shows that these animals can contribute far more as a tourism resource than as a catch target."
In total, the study found that shark tourism brings in $18 million to the island nation a year (8% of the country's gross domestic product), making each shark worth around $180,000 annually.

An increasingly popular Asian delicacy, shark-fin soup is exactly what its name suggests. Sharks are caught, their fins sawed off, and often the animals' bodies—sometimes still alive—are thrown back into the water. Shark finning alone is estimated to have killed an average of 38 million sharks per year between 1996 and 2000.
In 2009, Palau declared its waters as a 'shark sanctuary', completely off-limits to shark fishing and finning. Since then it has declared whales, dolphins, and dugongs off-limits as well, making it one of the most progressive marine conservation nations in the world.
"Shark tourism can be a viable economic engine," said Matt Rand, director of Global Shark Conservation for the Pew Environment Group, which commissioned the research. "Overfishing of sharks can have disastrous effects on ocean ecosystems, but this study provides a compelling case that can convince more countries to embrace these animals for their benefit to the ocean and their value to a country's financial well-being."
The study looked solely at a shark's worth for tourism, and not at the economic worth of ecological services provided by sharks. As top predators sharks play a major role in marine ecosystems.

Kim Il Sung's Works Off Press in Nigeria and Russia
| Pyongyang, April 16 (KCNA) -- President Kim Il Sung's work "For the Complete Victory of Socialism" was brought out in pamphlet by the Megareach Ventures Publishing House of Nigeria.
The work, published on December 30, 1986, clarifies the historical inevitability of the complete victory of socialism and the basic issue arising in achieving it and its reason.

Summer has officially arrived. And that means it's time to break out the flip-flops. Or is it?
According to the American College of Sports Medicine, wearing flip-flops as primary footwear is harmful to your feet and legs. Though they may seem comfortable, flip-flops lack the support that sneakers and other shoes give you. Then there's all the extra work you have to do to keep them on your feet.
But in the end, when it comes to sneakers and flip-flops, sneakers are the better choice.

How to get personal training clients is your number one goal. If you're a personal trainer, you already know how to get someone's body toned and you know how to give a person tips to eating healthier. All of that is great, but it's completely useless if you don't have any clients to work with. As a trainer you know how to train but chances are you don't know how to sell personal training. This is why you need to focus on getting clients – and fast.
One of the fastest ways to learn how to get personal training clients is to learn to tap into your friends. Your friends already know that you're a great personal trainer. Some of them may even be your clients. This means you need to work them for all they're worth. And since they are your friends, they'll be happy to help.
Tap into social media. You can create a Facebook page and Twitter account without spending any money. Once you create your page and load up some photos of clients and maybe even post a few wall posts about some good exercises to do at home, you're ready to ask your friends to do their part. Give them the link and ask them to post it on their walls.
As more people see the link, more people will click on it and see what you have to offer. See how many people you can get to contact you about personal training. How to get personal training clients often means enticing them with a special. Tell everyone that if they "like" your page that you will offer them a discount or a free training session. This will get more people interested in your services.
You have to remember that you're not going to turn everyone into a client. There are many people who like the idea of a personal trainer but can't (or won't) hire you for any number of reasons. These include:
– They can't afford you
– They don't want to diet
– They don't want to work
These are not the clients you want. You don't want to hear their excuses. However, they may know someone who is able to afford you, does want to diet and is willing to work to get the body they've always wanted. This means that you need to learn how to get personal training clients from everyone you meet. Don't burn bridges!
Beyond social media, you want to get into the media. If you're a personal trainer, you have likely been to some of the body building shows. You may have even competed in some of them. Make sure that you get into the media in one way or another. Either ask a local newspaper to cover the competition or do something else newsworthy – even if it's doing some volunteer work to help get your name out there.
You want the media coverage for two reasons. One, those not on social media will learn about you. Two, the media coverage will go onto the Internet and help you become more noticed within the search engines. How to get personal training clients is all about making yourself more visible. It will be impossible to get clients unless they know that you exist.
Offer up a boot camp. Many people aren't ready for a personal trainer because they don't know what to expect. A boot camp is a group form of training that allows everyone a glimpse into your personality and your MO. Boot camps are also more affordable for people because they are in a group setting. How to get personal training clients through a boot camp means giving a little introduction about yourself as well.
How to clients as a personal trainer is going to be easy once you get the first one or two. Word-of-mouth will always be your best marketing tool.
One of the best ways to get personal training clients is to opt-in for my free newsletter… I'll be sending you all kinds of free gifts and cool stuff to help you grow your personal training business, just leave your name and email in the box here;

We worked the clay until it was warm and pliable. Then we flattened it with our palms onto the table. Maddie rolled hers a bit.
While I was very careful to use saran wrap between the rubber stamps and the clay, Madeleine skipped that step entirely (while her Mama wasn't looking), and our stamps came through just fine! So you may want to test yours....or not....

The Blades play at
The Frank Buckland Cup is presented each spring to the winner of the Ontario Junior Hockey League (OJHL). The OJHL champion is also recognized as the Ontario Hockey Association (OHA) champion and represents the OHA at the Dudley Hewitt Cup Central Canadian championship each year.
Oakville has been fortunate enough to play in record four (4) straight Buckland Cup's from 2008 through 2011. Oakville won in 2008 over the Markham Waxers and 2010 over Newmarket Hurricanes, while falling in 2009 to the Kingston Voyageurs and 2011 to the Wellington Dukes.
2011 Final:
The Oakville Blades recovered from a slow start to the 2010-2011 OJHL regular season to finish as the 3rd seed (4th overall) in the OJHL heading into the playoffs. The 3rd seeding earned the club a bye in the first round of the playoffs.
In their opening on-ice round Oakville met an extremely familiar opponent in the Georgetown Raiders. Oakville stormed out to a 3-0 series lead before dropping Game 4 in Georgetown, ON to allow the Raiders back in the series. The Blades turned in a less-than-perfect effort in Game 5, but escaped with a win and the series victory. With the win, Oakville eliminated Georgetown for the 4th consecutive season.
In the OJHL quarter-final the Blades took on crosstown rival Burlington, the Western Division champions and 2nd seed in the Northwest Conference. After trading wins in games 1-4, Oakville took a 3-2 series lead dismantling the Cougars on their home ice in Burlington 7-3. In Game 6, Burlington clawed back from a 2-0 deficit in the 3rd to force OT, but Oakville ended the series early in the OT to eliminate the 'Cougs.
Although the distance between opponents increased by about 3-hours for the OJHL semi-finals, Oakville met another familiar opponent in the Kingston Voyageurs (meeting for the 3rd time in 3 years). After capturing Game 1 on home ice 1-0, Oakville dropped a 9-1 decision in Game 2 on the road in the Limestone City.
The Blades then took Game 3 in Oakville, lost Game 4 in Kingston and dropped a heartbreaker in Game 5, in OT, in Oakville. With their season on the line in Game 6, Oakville tied the game 2-2 with under 4 minutes to go in the 3rd before ending it in OT to force Game 7. In front of their largest home crowd in years, Oakville hammered Kingston 5-0 to eliminate the Vees for the 2nd year in a row.
In the Buckland Cup, only a day removed from eliminating Kingston, Oakville met the OJHL's top ranked team in the Wellington Dukes and lost Game 1 on the road 5-2.
Despite outplaying the Dukes in Game 2 in Oakville, they were unable to solve the Dukes 'D' en route to a 4-0 loss. In Game 3 it was much of the same, though Oakville pulled out a hard-fought 2-1 win to climb back into the series. The turning point of the series then came in Game 4 as the Dukes scored in OT to take a 3-1 stranglehold on the series and returned home to eliminate the Blades in Game 5 by a 4-2 score to capture the Buckland Cup for the first time in close to a decade.
As was the case in 2008, 2009 and 2010, Oakville will graduate a large number from their 2010-2011 roster and will once again look to reload prior to training camp in August.
2010 Final:
In 2009-2010 the Blades finished in 2nd place in the Ontario Junior 'A' Hockey League (OJAHL) behind the defending Central Canadian champion Kingston Voyageurs.
The opening round of the playoffs paired the 2nd place Blades against the 7th place Aurora Tigers - not far removed from a pair of Royal Bank Cup championships. Besides an OT loss in Game 4, the Blades overpowered the Tigers for much of the series, winning 4-games-to-1.
With thoughts of the 2009 OJHL semi-final classic against the Georgetown Raiders still fresh on both team's minds, the Blades and Raiders met again. With the series tied 1-1 and the Raiders taking a 4-1 lead to the locker room after the 2nd period of Game 3 at the old Oakville Arena, it looked as though Georgetown would take a 2-1 series lead home for Game 4. However, the Blades stormed back to tie the game at 4-4 in the 3rd period before capping the comeback with an OT win. The Blades would take the next two games and eliminate the Raiders 4-games-to-1.
In the OJAHL final the Blades met the regular season champion Kingston Voyageurs for the OJAHL crown. The series could have not have been tighter - with all 7 games being decided by a single goal, including 4 in OT. The Blades saved their best for last in the championship round, winning Game 7 on the road in OT to stun the 1,600+, standing room only, pro-Kingston crowd. The win sent the Blades back to the Buckland Cup for the 3rd straight season.
In the 2010 Buckland Cup the OJAHL champion Blades met the Central Canadian Hockey League (CCHL) champion Newmarket Hurricanes. The Hurricanes came into the championship showcasing a smothering defensive style, backed up by outstanding goaltending. After splitting the opening games, the 'Canes jumped ahead 2-1 in the series on the Blades before Oakville evened the series 2-2 with a road win in Game 4. In Game 5 the Blades would use an overtime goal to jump ahead in the series and headed back to Newmarket for Game 6 holding a 3-2 advantage.
In the 6th game, Oakville led a very tight contest 2-1 late in the 2nd period before blowing the game open with a PP goal in the final minute of the middle frame and another goal, shorthanded, with just a second left on the clock. Although a tough series from start to finish, the 4-1 advantage heading to the 3rd period allowed the Blades to cruise to a 6-1 victory and capture their 2nd Buckland Cup in 3 years.
With the series victory over Newmarket the Blades would advance to the Dudley Hewitt Cup in Sault Ste Marie, ON.
As was the case in 2008 and 2009, Oakville will graduate a large number from their 2009-2010 roster and will once again look to reload prior to training camp in August.
2009 Final:
In 2008-2009 the Blades finished in 2nd place in the Mackinnon Division, although only a couple of points out of first place overall in the entire Ontario Junior Hockey League (OJHL).
Under a new playoff format, the 2nd ranked Blades opened the playoffs against the 7th ranked Brampton Capitals in the Mackinnon Division Quarter-Finals and captured the best-of-five series 3-games-to-0 before moving on to defeat the Burlington Cougars 4-games-to-1 in the 2nd round.
In perhaps the most anticipated playoff series of the entire OJHL playoffs the Oakville Blades met the Georgetown Raiders yet again for the division title. On the strength of strong goaltending from Adrian Volpe, the Blades took a 3-games-to-1 series lead before the Raiders stormed back to force a 7th game at the MoldMaster Complex in Georgetown. Before a sellout crowd of more than 1,200, and with starting goaltender Matt Hache back in net, the Blades won the series with a 3-2 victory.
In the Conference Final Oakville met another popular OJHL team, the Central Division Champion Wellington Dukes. In a back-and-forth series that was stretched to 7 games, the Blades prevailed with a near perfect performance on home ice, winning 3-0 to advance back to the final.
Back in the Buckland Cup for the 2nd year in a row the Blades hopped back on the 401 East to face the Ruddock Division Champion Kingston Voyageurs. The Voyageurs jumped out to a quick series lead with an OT victory on the road and a home ice triumph the next night before the Blades got on the board with a 5-4 OT win at the Joshua's Creek Arenas in Game 3. The teams traded wins in games 4 and 5 before Kingston captured the title with a 5-2 victory on home ice.
Although the team graduated a large portion of their roster at the conclusion of the 2008-2009 season, the offseason additions by the hockey club allowed the team to ice a very competitive roster through the 2009-2010 season.
2008 Final:
On the strength of a mid-season 20-game winning streak, the Oakville Blades captured the OPJHL's Western Division regular season title with a 39-6-4 record.
After earning a first round bye with the first place finish, the Blades disposed of the Milton Icehawks 4-games-to-1 in the 2nd round and beat archrival Georgetown 4-games-to-1 in the 3rd round to win the West Division playoff title.
In the Northwest Conference championship, the Blades defeated the defending Royal Bank Cup champion Aurora Tigers 4-games-to-2, due in large part to overtime wins in game four and in game six, both on the road at the Aurora Community Centre.
In the OPJHL Buckland Cup final, the Blades met the Markham Waxers and the teams traded wins on home ice to start the series. From Game 3 onwards the series belonged to the Blades and Oakville overpowered the Waxers and took the final 4-games-to-1 to win their first championship in franchise history.
Following their Buckland Cup triumph, the Blades then moved on to the Dudley Hewitt Cup in Newmarket, ON to play for the Central Canadian championship and a birth in the Royal Bank Cup.

A musician, who injured a taxi driver he attempted robbing, has been sentenced by an Accra Circuit court to ten years imprisonment in hard labour.
The convict, Isaac Opoku Kwakye hired the services of the taxi driver to Anyaa, a suburb of Accra and in the process of the journey, attacked the driver as he attempted to get hold of the car key.
The convict, who was struggling with the driver over the key, hit him several times with a stone on the head, causing him to sustain injuries. Isaac Opoku Kwakye was arrested, when a witness passing by raised alarm on what was happening.
He had pleaded not guilty to the charge of attempted to commit crime contrary to section 18 (1) of the criminal code 1960 (act 29) and guilty to the charge of causing harm contrary to section 69 of the criminal code 1960 (act 29).
The court presided over by Mr. Francis Obiri sentenced the convict on his own plea on the second count. He is expected to re-appear before the court on February 20, 2013 to stand trial on the count of attempted robbery.
Briefing the court, the prosecutor, DSP P. A. Mokeh told the court that on January 31, 2013 at about 8:00pm, the convict hired the complainant's KIA pride taxi with registration number GR-1648-X from Kwashieman to Anyaa, a suburb of Accra.
According to him, on reaching a section of the road, the convict pleaded with the complainant to stop for him to make a phone call.
He said while the complainant was patiently waiting behind the steering wheel with the engine off, the convict, who was sitting behind the complainant at the back seat held his neck in attempt to strangle and snatch the vehicle from him.
"The complainant struggled with the accused person and managed to free himself and jumped through the window of the front door with the car key but in the process he fell down.
The accused person rushed on him and began struggling with the complainant in the attempt to collect the car key from him", the prosecutor told the court.
He further emphasized that the convict however, picked a stone and began hitting the complainant with on his head and other parts of his body, when he found it difficult to get hold of the key as a result of which the complainant sustained multiple injuries.
DSP Mokeh told the court that a witness, who was standing at a distance, saw what was happening and rushed to the scene and rescued the complainant, adding that with the assistance of other witnesses, the convict was arrested.
"During a search in the taxi, a toy pistol, powdered pepper, a blade, glue and a cello-tape. The convict was later handed over to the police at Anya.
During investigation, the accused person denied the complainant but admitted the offence in his cautioned statement", prosecutor noted.

~ Just a reminder that I finally posted our Honeymoon photos ( part one & part two ). We've almost been married 6 months so it was about time I got the photos sorted and posted. I wish I were back in the Dominican right now, laying on the beach with a frozen drink in my hand next to this blue eyed hottie . . .
~ So my Mom and my Mother-in-law can stop reading this paragraph now because I just have to talk about the 50 Shades of Grey trilogy. I've finished the first book and already a few chapters into the second. Right off the bat I can tell you I've never read anything like this and honestly they're a bit much. I can only read about someone having sex every other page before I get sick of it. I understand the appeal of the books and they aren't bad, they're just not reality. At least not my reality. I feel like I need a dictionary or wikipedia to translate some of the verb-age and it's just way out of my league. I'm not a prude by any means but these books just go into something that I have no clue about.
Ana gets mad and bites her lip or rolls her eyes, Christian looks at her with his "smouldering grey eyes" and she's putty immediately then it goes right into very descriptive sex. It's actually annoying how much the same scenarios are repeated over and over again yet we're supposed to think they are some amazing couple. Everyone keeps saying that books two and three are way better than the first and I'm seriously just waiting to get to something that I can actually read without rolling my eyes at both of the characters. And we all know where rolling your eyes gets you and I'd rather stay in my bubble and not know what "punishment" is.
I'm trying not to give too much detail if you haven't read the books but I just had to write about how I really feel about them. They're a quick read and enjoyable for the most part but I just have my own opinions about how the storyline is playing out.
~ I know I didn't pay full retail for this Fossil purse but I bought it new with tags on April 1st and the wear on the leopard print is so bad only 26 days later. I'm upset that it looks so bad because I really love this purse. I would be absolutely livid if I'd spent the actual retail price of $208.
This really makes me doubt the quality of expensive bags and I already want to stop carrying it
This is going to be another relaxing weekend for the most part except for the 4 signs I've got to finish painting before Monday
Hope y'all have a wonderful weekend!

Turn Down Your Rush: It's the 'Game of Thrones' Teaser

Here's a brief teaser that aired last night. Enjoy your clanking.

A fundamental principle of securities legislation is that everyone investing in securities should have equal access to information that may affect their decision as to whether to buy, sell or hold securities. Directors, officers and employees of a corporation and consultants sometimes acquire knowledge of Material Information concerning the business and affairs of the corporation (or a related corporation) which has not yet been disclosed to the public. If that is the case, they have an unfair advantage in buying or selling securities because the seller or buyer on the other side of the transaction may have made a different investment decision had they been aware of that information.
"Material Information" is any information relating to the business and affairs of a corporation and its subsidiaries that results in, or would reasonably be expected to result in, a significant change in the market price or value of any of the corporation's securities or would reasonably be expected to affect the investment decisions of a reasonable investor. Examples include release of quarterly financial results, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, developments in operations, changes in capital structure, dividend announcements and significant changes in earnings or cash flow prospects.
Similarly, if such a person informs another person of undisclosed Material Information, and such person buys or sells securities on the basis of that information, the seller or buyer on the other side of the transaction is, once again, at a disadvantage.
Insider reporting requirements help prevent improper activities involving stock options and similar equity based instruments including stock option backdating, option re-pricing and the opportunistic timing of option grants since timely disclosures and public scrutiny will limit the ability of issuers to engage in such practices
Certain securities laws in Canada have been enacted so as to prevent and deter such inequitable trading in securities and to increase market efficiency by providing investors with information concerning the trading activities of certain insiders of an issuer by providing that:
Superior Plus Corp. ("Superior") has formulated this policy to assist directors, officers, employees and consultants of Superior and its affiliates (collectively referred to as "Superior Plus") in complying with these laws. The purpose of this policy is to confirm in writing the existing policies and procedures and guidelines relating to trading by directors, officers, employees and consultants in securities of Superior. This policy, however, in no way reduces the obligations imposed by law on those directors, officers, employees and consultants. Compliance with insider trading and disclosure requirements remains the personal responsibility of such persons.
This policy applies to all directors, officers, employees and consultants of Superior Plus, as well as to securities or related financial instruments over which such director, officer, employee or consultant exercises control or direction (such as in relation to a trust or in relation to minor children or spouse) and securities which are indirectly owned (such as in RRSPs or through a wholly-owned corporation). Directors, officers, employees and consultants are responsible for ensuring compliance by their families and other members of their households with the terms of this policy.
This policy applies to any transactions in all Superior's securities, including, but not limited to: common shares, stock options, warrants, debentures, RSUs (including business RSUs) and PSUs (including business PSUs). This policy also applies to all other derivative securities or related financial instruments that are not issued by Superior but are based on the value of Superior's securities - for example, derivative transactions, equity swaps, hedging transactions, equity monetization transactions, futures contracts and debt instruments for which all or part of the amount payable is determined by reference to the price, value or level of Superior's securities (for example, a linked note).
In addition, this policy applies to Material Information relating to another company that directors, officers, employees or consultants of Superior Plus may learn in the course of a proposed or pending transaction.
Directors, officers, employees and consultants may trade in Superior's securities and related financial instruments, either directly or indirectly, or may exercise direction or control over the trading of its securities and related financial instruments, except as follows:
Trading by directors, officers, employees and consultants is prohibited when they are in possession of Material Information which is being kept confidential and which has not been made public. Except in the necessary course of business, it is also illegal for anyone to inform any other person of material non-public information (referred to as "tipping"). Directors, officers, employees and consultants of Superior Plus, with knowledge of confidential or Material Information about Superior Plus are prohibited from tipping or trading until the information has been fully disclosed. Employees who are not sure whether they should be trading in securities at any particular time should contact the President and Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") or the Corporate Secretary, or in the absence of either, the Vice-President, Treasurer and Investor Relations or the Executive Vice-President and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), collectively (the "Designated Officers").
To protect the reputation of Superior Plus and avoid the appearance of impropriety, directors, officers and other reporting insiders are required to inquire prior to making proposed trades in Superior's securities and related financial instruments with the President and CEO or one of the Designated Officers to determine if there is undisclosed Material Information about Superior Plus that is to be announced.
Under this policy, trading by directors, officers and other reporting insiders should not take place until after the first full business day following a broadly disseminated news release of any Material Information.
No trading should take place by directors, officers, employees or consultants of Superior Plus who have access to undisclosed financial information during periods when financial statements are being prepared but results have not yet been publicly disclosed. With respect to proposed public announcements for quarterly and annual financial results, the blackout period commences ten calendar days following the end of the fiscal quarter or year, and ends after the first full business day following the issuance of a news release disclosing the financial results. Directors, officers, employees and consultants should confirm the timing for issuance of financial results prior to engaging in a transaction involving securities of Superior.
Blackout periods may be prescribed from time to time as a result of special circumstances relating to Superior Plus pursuant to which directors, officers, employees and/or consultants of Superior Plus may be precluded from trading in securities of Superior.
Ontario Securities Commission Rule 48-501 Trading during Distributions, Formal Bids and Share Exchange Transactions ("OSC Rule 48-501") imposes restrictions on the ability of insiders of Superior Plus to purchase or sell securities of Superior during certain restricted periods including those during which Superior Plus is involved in an offering of its securities by way of a prospectus or a private placement. The Rule provides for a number of exemptions from the trading restrictions. Superior will institute a blackout for such periods during which Superior is in the course of distributing its securities. To the extent that you wish to rely on an exemption available to you pursuant to OSC Rule 48-501 you must first seek the prior approval of any one of the Designated Officers on your intended reliance on such exemption.
If you are uncertain as to your status as a "Reporting Insider" of Superior, you should enquire of one of the Designated Officers as to the existence of any trading restrictions before entering into a transaction.
Subject to certain limited exceptions, the Canada Business Corporations Act ("CBCA") prohibits a director, officer, or person employed or retained by Superior, from knowingly entering into a sale of Superior's securities, directly or indirectly, where such person does not own or has not fully paid for the securities being sold or from knowingly selling a call or buying a put in respect of securities of Superior.
A director or officer or other reporting insider must not, at any time, purchase financial instruments, including for greater certainty, prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars, or units of exchange funds, which are designed to hedge or offset a decrease in the market value of equity securities granted as compensation or held, directly or indirectly by the director, officer or other reporting insider. For greater certainty, financial instruments that are designed to hedge or offset a general decrease in equity markets (i.e. a hedge against a decrease in a broad market index such as the TSX S&P 60) rather than a specific decrease in market value of any of Superior's securities would not be prohibited under this provision.
Canadian insider reporting requirements are set out in National Instrument 55-104 Insider Reporting Requirements and Exemptions and its related companion policy. The following is a brief overview of insider reporting obligations:
You are deemed to be a "Reporting Insider" of Superior if (a) you are a director or the CEO, CFO or COO of Superior or one of Superior's major subsidiaries (defined as entities that represent 30% or more of the consolidated assets or revenue of Superior based on a look back at the most recent annual or interim financial statements), or (b) you are a person responsible for a principal business unit, division or function of Superior, or (c) you are a shareholder that controls 10% or more of the securities of Superior (calculated on a post-conversion beneficial ownership basis), or (d) regardless of your title and position with Superior, you (i) in the ordinary course of business receive or have access to information as to material facts or material changes concerning Superior before the material facts or material changes are generally disclosed; and (ii) directly or indirectly exercise, or have the ability to exercise, significant power or influence over the business, operations, capital or development of Superior.
The definition of the term "Reporting Insider" in securities legislation is very technical and you are encouraged to contact any one of the Designated Officers if you are unsure whether you are deemed to be a Reporting Insider of Superior.
A Reporting Insider of Superior is required to file an initial insider report within ten days of becoming a Reporting Insider (unless the Reporting Insider does not have any beneficial ownership of, control or direction over, whether direct or indirect, in securities of Superior) and subsequent insider reports within five days following any trade in securities or related financial instruments of Superior.
Insider trading reports are required to be filed electronically on the "System for Electronic Disclosure by Insiders" or "SEDI". SEDI is an Internet-based system for reporting insider trading information and can be located at www.sedi.ca. Insider reports (excluding certain personal information) that are filed on SEDI are accessible to the public via the Internet.
To assist insiders with their reporting obligations, Superior Plus will prepare and file insider trading reports on behalf of insiders. In order for Superior to prepare an insider's initial insider report, insiders are asked to provide the number of securities of Superior held by them on the date they became an insider of Superior and any subsequent trades made in such securities by e-mailing or telephoning Lorne O'Reilly, General Counsel of Superior, at email@example.com or (403) 730-5829 with the required information.
The British Columbia, Manitoba, Ontario and Quebec Securities Commissions levy fees for late filing of insider reports. In British Columbia, the late payment fee is currently $50 per late report and in Manitoba and Ontario, the late payment fee is $50 per day, subject to a maximum of $1,000 per insider, per issuer, per financial year and in Quebec, the late payment fee is $100 per day, subject to a maximum of $5,000 per transaction. It is the insider's obligation to pay any late payment fees.
Violations of insider trading and tipping prohibitions can result in severe consequences under securities and corporate laws, which in Canada can include fines (to a maximum fine equal to the greater of three times the profit made or loss avoided and $5,000,000), injunctions against future violations, civil liability and a jail term of up to five years, in addition to general embarrassment and damage to his or her reputation. Further, the reputation of Superior Plus may be damaged, and it may be exposed to liability. A breach of this policy is considered a breach of the employment contract with Superior Plus and as such, violators may be immediately dismissed for cause.
Any questions concerning insider trading matters should be directed to any one of the Disclosure Policy Officers.
This policy was approved by the Board of Directors on November 2, 2010 and amended on May 2, 2012.

THE newly unearthed remains of the world's largest snake could settle a debate over whether global warming will bump up temperatures in the tropics.
Some researchers say tropical temperatures will rise in line with the rest of the world. Others say the "thermostat" theory means there is a limit to how hot they can get.
Jason Head at the University of Toronto, Canada, and colleagues dug up the 60-million-year-old relative of the boa constrictor in a Colombian coal mine (Nature, DOI: 10.1038/nature07671). Temperature can affect body size, and for the snake to grow to 13 metres long and weigh over 1 tonne, the tropics would have to have been at about 33 °C, 7 °C warmer than today's average.
This "refutes the idea of the thermostat", says Head, and tells us "what equatorial temperatures will be as we continue to warm the planet: very hot."

Tools Don't Create Art – Artists Do That
I get email and tweets like this every day…
"New #show filmed 100% #DSLR coming soon! PLZ RT"
"New motion picture filmed entirely on an iPhone – please spread the word."
"Photographer uses old The Graflex Speed Graphic to shoot weddings."
Folks if your press release or news is about the tool you use not the story you tell – well sorry but to coin a phrase the young people use these days – you're a tool! (I think it's spelled that way – but you get the idea.)
The notion that the tool you used to shoot your documentary or make your movie or record a wedding is somehow important – is flawed from the start.
Or at least nobody SHOULD care. 100 years from now when each of us is dead and buried – that tech probably won't exist. The movies and pictures and magazine and books, etc., that survive will be what matters. NOT how they were made.
If the best you can do is lead your press release with a note about the gear you used to make your movie – I don't have to watch your movie to know it probably sucks.
REAL story tellers let the story speak for itself. Real photographers and film makers with something valuable to say, let the work do the talking and to take it one step further, if they are true masters – they WANT the tools to get out of the way. They want you to pay attention to the story and HOPE you don't notice (or care) how the show or book or story was put together.
If you have to rely on gimmicks – such as "entirely shot on a Droid phone" then you have missed the mark by a mile.
If you have to tell me a long, drawn-out story about how you made your photo or book or movie and what gear you used, it's unlikely that you made anything powerful, important or artistic. Concentrate on the story – not the tools – if you want to practice art at its highest levels.
"Tools do not create art."

Should S.D. keep strong-mayor system?
Voters will be asked to decide issue
Strong mayor: The mayor, who serves as the city's chief executive, oversees day-to-day operations, drafts the budget and heads labor negotiations. He doesn't get a legislative vote but can veto City Council decisions. The eight-member City Council elects a president who sets the agenda. The City Council has final approval of budget and land-use issues.
City manager: The city manager — not an elected official — oversees day-to-day operations and crafts the budget at the City Council's direction. The City Council, which includes the mayor, has final approval of budget and land-use issues.
The transfer of executive power at San Diego City Hall from a city manager to an elected mayor has led to significant changes in operations, procedures and the age-old art of political wheeling and dealing.
But, after four years of the experiment, is the city better off with a strong mayor at the helm?
That question is difficult to answer, as many of the actions taken by Mayor Jerry Sanders — the only strong mayor the city has known — to tackle a billion-dollar pension crisis and wasteful spending have been masked by a recession that continues to batter the city's budget.
Headlines about San Diego continue to reflect bad news — albeit with less frequency — as they did in 2004 when voters fed up with backroom deals favored Proposition F and temporarily created the strong-mayor form of government. The change split the mayor from the City Council in January 2006 to give voters an elected official to hold accountable for city operations and established a system of checks and balances that had long been absent.
The council is expected to vote tomorrow to give voters a choice on the June 8 ballot to make the strong-mayor structure permanent or revert to the days when a bureaucrat ran the city at the council's direction.
Some critics of the ballot measure, including Norma Damashek of the League of Women Voters, say city leaders have oversimplified a complex issue by giving voters an either/or option instead of allowing them to extend the trial period. The city also has tied the possible creation of a ninth council district to the strong-mayor initiative even though voters may want one but not the other.
"I think we've been so preoccupied with the budget, with the general economy, that nobody's really been looking at whether the city has been working," Damashek said. "We should keep it temporary long enough to get a new mayor in so that we won't make a decision based on personality but based on the system."
If the ballot measure fails, the city manager would be restored next January and the mayor would rejoin the council.
The two sides debating the pros and cons of strong mayor have remained largely unchanged in the past six years except for two notable exceptions.
Sanders, who initially opposed it, said he feels the trial has been a success because of the give-and-take that has developed between him and council members as they try to do what's best.

Written by Danielle Couture
Willimantic, Conn. - Diana Pho, a Vietnamese-American activist also known as "Ay-leen the Peacemaker", will present "Social Issues and Steampunk" as part of Eastern Connecticut State University's University Hour series in the Student Center Theatre from 3-4 p.m. on Nov. 13.
Pho will discuss race, gender and other social issues as they relate to the evolving subculture of Steampunk. Pho strives to broaden people's understanding of Steampunk. Her talk will go beyond a traditional mindset to educate people on the many happenings elsewhere in the globe (i.e. China, Vietnam and India) that occurred during the 19th century, and to discuss issues of racism and cultural appropriation as people create their costumes and characters.
Students are encouraged to attend in Steampunk attire.
University Hour is open to the public and admission is free.

Today there is a lot of debate over how frequently you should use shampoo. Although skipping a day or two will not hurt your hair, neither will applying shampoo daily. Any residue that shampoo might leave in your hair is going to wash away when you rinse it. If you feel that a daily shampooing is necessary to keep your hair clean, feel free to do it.
Use water to perk up your curls. If your curls tend to fall between shampoos, mist your hair lightly with water. Once your hair is slightly damp, curl your hair with your fingers. This will help add some pep to your curls until the next time you shampoo your hair. You should avoid "thinning" haircuts, as these layers can actually maximize your hair's volume and make it look even larger. To tame big hair, utilize the many styling products and tools on the market. Oils can help tame dry, fuzzy hair, while a dab of pomade can help strands stay put.
A great hair care tip is to try out different dandruff shampoos, if you do, indeed, have dandruff. A lot of the time people with dandruff will say they aren't noticing results with their dandruff shampoo. This is because different dandruff shampoos all have different ingredients in them, so using a variety will cover all the bases.
If you're an active sleeper, your night-time tossing and turning may be damaging your hair. Shifting your head frequently while you sleep can cause friction damage as your hair rubs against your head, your bedding, and itself. To avoid this needless hassle, try putting your hair into two loose braids before you go to sleep.
