International Spectator, 9/21/02 - extract on South Africa snip THE INTERNATIONAL FORECASTER 21, September, 2002 (#2) An international financial, economic, political and social commentary. Published and Edited by: Bob Chapman Vol. 6- No. 9-2 ( exerpt) Phone & Fax: 941 639 4756 E-mail: bif4653@comcast.net <snip> ......We hear over and over from our South African contacts that, what’s happening in Zimbabwe can’t happen here. Well, we have news for white South Africans, the game is over and the taking by force of white-owned farmland by blacks has begun in earnest. Recently landless blacks near Hout Bay stormed the Cape High Court and they were carrying Zimbabwe flags. This flag thing is happening all over the country and when Robert Mugabe spoke at the UN feast on Sustainable Development, Mr. Mugabe was welcomed as a conquering hero by large crowds of South African blacks carrying Zimbabwe flags. President Mbeki gave Mr. Mugabe twice as long to speak compared to any other leaders. Mugabe has full support from black South Africans in his program to drive all the whites out of Zimbabwe. Mr. Mbeki has no intention of putting down the Hout Bay rebellion, which will spread throughout the country. The only reason Mbeki is slower in implementation of Marxist reform is that he was Moscow trained, whereas Mugabe was Maoist trained. Events in South Africa will now move very quickly now that the gauntlet has been thrown down to the mining interests. Hout Bay is the beginning of the end for white South Africans. They should flee South Africa now with whatever wealth they can get out. Eventually every farm, business and mine will be taken over and that is a disaster for shareholders. An even more paramount question is will the whites be allowed to leave penniless or will they be exterminated Pol Pot style while the UN, UK and US looks on and lets it happen? The new ANC, African National Council, laws say that blacks can verbally make claim to white-owned farmland that supposedly belonged to their ancestors who had been removed by force. The white farmer then must prove he owns the land and previous owners did not drive those black ancestors away. Now who will be able to access records from the 16-1700’S? The plans and ideology from the Marxists of the ANC is in place and they are now moving forward. The military cannot stop the onslaught; they are outnumbered seven to one. Mbeki is in open tacit support for Mugabe and looks the other way as the Marxists Landless People’s Movement, which has sprung up overnight, marches the streets demanding land. The famine in Zimbabwe is being deliberately induced so that Zimbabweans will stream into South Africa. Recently aerial photos show Zimbabwe’s dams full of water yet it is being withheld from farmers. They want starvation and death. It’s a calculated attempt to exercise control over the population. White South Africans are living in a dream world. In a few years they’ll have lost everything. Get out now while you still can. Remember it’s the British and Americans who destroyed white government in South Africa and Rhodesia and put Mandela, Mbeki and Mugabe in power. The time is now for the beginning of ethnic and political cleansing. Once white South Africans start defending their land all hell will break loose. Millions will die in the carnage to come. <snip> SUBSCRIPTION INFORMATION: 1-year $99.95 U.S. Funds. Make check payable to Robert Chapman, (NOT to International Forecaster), and mail to: P. O.

Another one we both were in at one time,...they can win the awards but they get no respect from the market,...still got freebies. SEPTEMBER 24, 2002 - 17:39 EDT Xillix Wins Award for Most Promising Life Science Technology RICHMOND, BRITISH COLUMBIA--On September 20, 2002, Xillix Technologies Corp. received the Investors' Choice Award for the most promising life science technology after presenting at the 4th Annual Pacific Northwest Venture Capital Forum, an event hosted by The Monte Jade Science & Technology Association. The forum was comprised of life science and information technology companies presenting their cutting edge technology to venture capitalists, industry peers and other executives. Sponsors of the event included: Business Development Bank of Canada; BC Technology Industries Association; BC Ministry of Competition, Science and Enterprise; Cansbridge Capital Corp; Comerica; Cooley Godward, L.L.P; Clark, Wilson; Deloitte & Touche; Ernst & Young; Fasken Martineau; Getz Prince Wells; GrowthWorks; MDS Capital Corp.; TieUs Technology; and TVCA. "We are delighted to be recognized for our technology.

"We are pleased to present the prestigious Investors' Choice Award to Xillix Technologies from a field of strong contenders. The attending venture capitalists were impressed with the company's business case and presentation style," said William Yu, Chair of Monte Jade. Previous year's presenting companies and award winners went on to raise over CDN $100M during the last 12 months. The Monte Jade Science & Technology Association is a non-profit trade association for the producers and users of technology in all sectors of the economy. On behalf of its membership, Monte Jade promotes and facilitates the development of a strong commercial technology industry globally.

Xillix LIFE(TM) fluorescence-based medical imaging technology helps physicians diagnose early-stage lung and gastrointestinal (GI) cancers. By exposing tissue to light from Xillix's patented fluorescence imaging device, physicians may be better able to detect pre-cancerous and cancerous cells. In 1996, clinical studies approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) confirmed that Xillix's first-generation lung device, the Xillix LIFE-Lung System(TM) improved physicians' ability to detect lung cancer by 171% compared with conventional white light bronchoscopy alone. Xillix is preparing its latest device, Onco-LIFE(TM), for clinical trials to prove its value in detecting and localizing early lung and GI cancers. This new device leverages Xillix's worldwide experience and innovation. Onco-LIFE is compact, affordable, easy-to-use and incorporates both fluorescence and conventional imaging in a single system that will 'plug and play' with a wide range of endoscopes and endoscopic accessories to maximize global market acceptance.
