# District Council of Woolundunga

The District Council of Woolundunga was a local government area in South Australia from 1888 until 1933.

## History

It was created on 5 January 1888 as the District Council of Davenport under the provisions of the District Councils Act 1887, but was renamed Woolundunga on 8 June 1893 to avoid confusion with the adjacent Corporate Town of Davenport, a separate municipality. The principal township was Stirling North. The council constructed purpose-built chambers at Stirling North in 1894, and operated out of them for the remainder of their existence.
At its creation, the council area was more than 1,000 km$^2$ (400 sq mi), including all the formerly unincorporated parts of the County of Newcastle west of the Dutchmans Range and Middle Range ridge line (Kanyaka council west border) as well as the Hundred of Winninowie and parts of the hundreds of Davenport and Woolundunga remaining unincorporated in the County of Frome. By 1923, the council controlled an area of approximately 212,000 acres in 1923, with 32 miles of main roads. It had an estimated 472 persons in 200 dwellings, with the capital value of ratable property in that year being £142,280. In the ten years prior, the area had transitioned "almost entirely" from wheat to sheep farming. It was reported to have retained a similar population in 1936. On 28 April 1932, part of Woolundunga, along with the Corporate Town of Davenport and the Corporate Town of Port Augusta West, merged into the existing Corporate Town of Port Augusta. Most of the remaining sections of the municipality merged with the District Council of Hammond and part of the District Council of Port Germein as the recreated District Council of Wilmington on 16 February 1933; a section of Woolundunga was also merged into the District Council of Kanyaka as its Mundallio Ward.

# State President's Medal for Shooting

The State President's Medal for Shooting was instituted by the State President of the Republic of Bophuthatswana in 1990, for award to champion shots.

## The Bophuthatswana Defence Force

The Bophuthatswana Defence Force (BDF) was established upon that country's independence on 6 December 1977. The Republic of Bophuthatswana ceased to exist on 27 April 1994 and the Bophuthatswana Defence Force was amalgamated with six other military forces into the South African National Defence Force (SANDF).

## Institution

The State President's Medal for Shooting was instituted by the State President of Bophuthatswana in 1990.

## Award criteria

The medal could be awarded to champion shots.

## Order of wear

Since the State President's Medal for Shooting was authorised for wear by one of the statutory forces which came to be part of the South African National Defence Force on 27 April 1994, it was accorded a position in the official South African order of precedence on that date.

### Bophuthatswana Defence Force until 26 April 1994

* Official BDF order of precedence:
** Preceded by the Medal for Long Service and Good Conduct, Bronze.
* Bophuthatswana official national order of precedence:
** Preceded by the Medal for Faithful Service in the Prisons Service, Bronze.

### South African National Defence Force from 27 April 1994

With effect from 6 April 1952, when a new South African set of decorations and medals was instituted to replace the British awards which were used to date, the older awards continued to be worn in the same order of precedence but, with the exception of the Victoria Cross, took precedence after all South African orders, decorations and medals awarded to South Africans on or after that date.
* Official SANDF order of precedence:
** Preceded by the President's Medal for Shooting of the Republic of Ciskei.
** Succeeded by the Dekoratie voor Trouwe Dienst (DTD) of the Union of South Africa.
* Official national order of precedence:
** Preceded by the President's Medal for Shooting of the Republic of Ciskei.
** Succeeded by the George Cross (GC) of the United Kingdom.
The position of the State President's Medal for Shooting in the order of precedence remained unchanged, as it was on 27 April 1994, when decorations and medals were belatedly instituted in April 1996 for the two former non-statutory forces, the Azanian People's Liberation Army and Umkhonto we Sizwe, and again when a new series of military orders, decorations and medals was instituted in South Africa on 27 April 2003.

## Discontinuation

Conferment of the State President's Medal for Shooting was discontinued when the Republic of Bophuthatswana ceased to exist on 27 April 1994.

# Status of the Union Act, 1934

The Status of the Union Act, 1934 (Act No. 69 of 1934) was an act of the Parliament of South Africa that was the South African counterpart to the Statute of Westminster 1931. It declared the Union of South Africa to be a "sovereign independent state" and explicitly adopted the Statute of Westminster into South African law. It also removed any remaining power of the British Parliament to legislate for South Africa, and ended the United Kingdom's involvement in the granting or refusal of royal assent.
The Statute of Westminster applied to South Africa without needing ratification from its Parliament (unlike the case in Australia and New Zealand), so the Status Act was not legally necessary to establish South Africa's full sovereignty. It was, however, seen as a symbolic action by the Pact government of Prime Minister J. B. M. Hertzog, coming as it did shortly before the merger of his National Party with Jan Smuts's South African Party to form the United Party.
The Status of the Union Act was repealed by the Republic of South Africa Constitution Act, 1961, which ended South Africa's membership of the Commonwealth of Nations and transformed it into a republic.

## Provisions

The Status Act incorporated the Statute of Westminster into South African law as if it were an act of the South African Parliament. Sections 7 to 10 of the Statute were omitted because they dealt with matters specific to other Dominions of the British Commonwealth. The act further declared that "the Parliament of the Union shall be the sovereign legislative power in and over the Union," and that no act of the British Parliament would extend to South Africa unless extended by an act of the South African Parliament. This went further than the Statute of Westminster, which allowed the British Parliament to legislate for the Dominions at their request and with their consent.
With respect to the executive, the Status Act prescribed that the King, when exercising his executive powers in regard to South Africa, was required to act on the advice of the South African Prime Minister and Cabinet only. This made explicit what had previously been a constitutional convention.
The Status Act also altered the law governing the granting of the Royal Assent. Originally, the Governor-General had three options when a bill was sent to him by Parliament: to assent to it, to withhold his assent (i.e. veto it), or to reserve it for the signification of the King's pleasure. Reservation meant sending it to the King for a decision, which would be taken on the advice of the British cabinet. The Status Act removed this power of reservation, requiring the Governor-General to either sign or veto each bill. It also removed the King's power to disallow (i.e. veto) an act within a year after the Governor-General had assented to it.
While it made the executive and legislative branches of the South African government completely independent of Britain, the Status Act did not affect the judicial branch. Appeals to the Privy Council from the Appellate Division remained possible until 1950.
# Star Firestar M43

The Star Firestar is a series of single-action semi-automatic pistol consisting of four models that received the 1991 Handgun of the Year Award from Guns & Ammo magazine. The Firestar was available in 9 mm Para (M-43), .40 S&W (M-40), and .45 ACP (M-45) calibers, all having a single-stack magazine. A double-stack 9mm version (M-243) was also available and was commonly referred to by the unofficial name "Firestar Plus". The Firestar was produced by the now defunct Star Bonifacio Echeverria, S.A. in Eibar, Spain until 1994. The Firestar was imported into the United States by Interarms of Alexandria, Virginia.
Although its external appearance resembles a compact M1911, the Firestar is different in several respects. For example, the Firestar does not have the 1911's grip safety. The Firestar's safety features include an automatic safety at the firing pin (a feature not included in the 1911's original design but often found in more modern 1911 variants). The Firestar has operating procedures analogous to those of the Colt 1911: it is single action, and meant to be carried in Condition One (cocked and locked), with a cartridge in the chamber, cocked hammer and locked manual safety.
The Firestar is a compact, reliable and accurate handgun well-suited for backup or concealed carry. Its single-stack design sacrifices the superior magazine capacity of a double-stack, but permits a slim profile prized by many for concealed carry. While heavier than more modern handguns of comparable size made with today's composite materials, many shooters find the added heft provides a more stable shooting platform that improves accuracy.
On 6 May 2002, Volkert van der Graaf used the M43 to assassinate Dutch politician Pim Fortuyn. The specific M43 used is currently held by The Rijksmuseum, a Dutch national museum in Amsterdam.
# Star Fleet (song)

"Star Fleet" is the debut solo single by English musician Brian May, the lead guitarist of Queen. It is taken from the end theme of the cult science fiction puppet series Star Fleet.
It was also taken from the mini-album Star Fleet Project, which started out as a jam session involving May, Eddie Van Halen, drummer Alan Gratzer, bassist Phil Chen and keyboardist Fred Mandel over the days 21 and 22 April 1983.
Aside from the main participants, the title track also included drums and backing vocals by Queen drummer Roger Taylor.
The main track, "Star Fleet", was edited down from the mini-album's length of eight minutes to a more radio-friendly 4:12. Shorter edits were also done for Argentinian and American promo releases. The British B-side, "Son of Star Fleet", is an instrumental consisting mainly of the sections edited out of the full version of the track for its single release.
