Precarious Intimacies: Cross-Cultural Violence and Proximity in Settler Colonial Economies of the Pacific Rim
No full textThe development of settler colonial cultures was deeply dependent upon the everyday proximity of Indigenous and settler workers; yet we know surprisingly little of how the precarious intimacies arising from that proximity were intrinsically connected to forms of colonial violence. This chapter examines recent trends in colonial, postcolonial, and feminist scholarship to unpack how violence and intimacy were intertwined in the settler colonial encounter, and how this connection was embedded in the formation of settler colonial economies around the Pacific Rim. Considering a wider range of colonial dynamics beyond formal labour relations, it considers the role of ideological, moral, and emotional economies in shaping the complex colonial relationships that formed the building blocks of modern settler states.Penelope Edmonds and Amanda Nettelbec
Classified woman the Sibel Edmonds story : a memoir
No full text"In this startling new memoir, Sibel Edmonds--the most classified woman in U.S. history--takes us on a surreal journey that begins with the secretive FBI and down the dark halls of a feckless Congress to a stonewalling judiciary and finally, to the national security whistleblowers movements she spearheaded. Having lived under Middle East dictatorships, Edmonds knows firsthand what can happen when government is allowed to operate in secret. Hers is a sobering perspective that combines painful experience with a rallying cry for the public's right to know and to hold the lawbreakers accountable. With U.S. citizens increasingly stripped of their rights in a calibrated media blackout, Edmonds' story is a wake-up call for all Americans who, willingly or unwillingly, traded liberty for illusive security in the wake of 9/11."--P.

MLB Players asked to remove Alex Rodriguez from union out of anger over lawsuit - Star Ledger - NJ.com (Quotes: Ed Edmonds) January 21, 2014

Ed Edmonds, a sports law professor at Notre Dame Law School, said it was unsurprising Rodriguez and his team of lawyers decided to sue the union, given, Edmonds said, the rarity of a court abandoning an arbitrator’s ruling. Pulling the union into the lawsuit might help Rodriguez’s case, he said, but only marginally.
That might get some attention because the union has a duty of fair representation. Edmonds said. But the bar is pretty high. He would have to show that the union ignored him.
Baseball, contrary to some of the other sports, has really built this mystique of a union that really negotiated on the players’ behalf, Edmonds said. So you have that kind of solidarity. It has been successful because the rank and file has a lot of trust

Ed Edmonds, an associate dean and director of the law library at Notre Dame Law School, said the NLRB’s ruling “goes to the core of the issue of amateurism that is at the heart of the NCAA.”
Edmonds said the ruling, if it stands, could lead Notre Dame to reconsider how many scholarships it offers athletes. A host of federal and state laws, such as those requiring employers to provide health care and retirement benefits, also would come into play if student-athletes are considered employees
Phanaeus texensis Edmonds 1994
No full text<i>Phanaeus texensis</i> Edmonds <p>Fig. 70–73</p> <p> <b>Diagnosis.</b> Black, often with blue-violet highlights; upper surface dull. Length 12–22 mm. Male (Fig. 70–72) – Head of large individuals bearing long horn curved posteriorly over the pronotum; pronotum roughened by irregular granular sculpturing, strongly flattened, with salient, laterally curved posterior angles; in smaller males head horn shorter and triangular area of pronotum reduced in size and prominence. Female (Fig. 73) – Head with anteriorly bowed ridge between and in front of eyes; pronotum granulate, convex, with transverse, weakly bowed ridge near anterior margin. Elytral interstriae flat, densely roughened.

It is a burrowing species that searches for food (usually dung) on the surface that, once located, is buried by bits in tunnels underneath or to the side of its find. Often the only sign that it is present is a small mound of soil pushed to the surface during excavation of the tunnel. Because it passes most of its adult life underground, this species is, in spite of its size and conspicuousness, largely unknown to ranchers, hunters and others who frequent pasturelands in the area. While it prefers montane habitats, it can be found in other grassland and scrub habitats as well, but usually above 1380 m. Big Bend specimens of this species are always darkly colored, but scarce individuals can occasionally assume metallic green/coppery coloration in eastern parts of the state. In 1994, I considered <i>P. texensis</i> (as <i>P. triangularis texensis</i>) essentially absent from the Big Bend, an error corrected here. A peripheral record in Pecos Co. about 32 km northwest of Marathon on U.S. Hwy 385 (Brewster Co.), reports <i>P. texensis</i> from a deer carcass.</p> <p> While <i>P. texensis</i> occurs throughout much of the western two-thirds of the state, including the Big Bend, another species occurs at the periphery of the Trans-Pecos and could be regarded as an incipient (or perhaps previous) member of the Big Bend fauna. This second <i>Phanaeus</i> is <i>P. difformis</i> LeConte (Fig. 74–75), which is broadly distributed in the south-central United States and has penetrated western areas into the northern limit of the Trans-Pecos via river drainage systems into southeastern New Mexico and eastern Colorado (Edmonds 1994). A few isolated specimens have been collected in the Hueco Mountains east of El Paso (Schoenly 1983) as well as in Guadalupe Mountains National Park and near Malaga, New Mexico (personal records). Another common <i>Phanaeus</i>, <i>P. vindex</i> MacLeay, occurs widely in the Texas plains, New Mexico and Arizona; I agree with Bill Warner (pers. comm.) that its apparent absence from the Trans-Pecos is surprising.</p>Published as part of <i>Edmonds, W.
