The Palm Springs, California Q Television was organized to create an LGBT network in the US. It proves programming via satellite across the United States, including Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico.
"By acquiring Pride Vision, Q would be able to cut its expenses down on all of its programming costs," Frank Olsen President and CEO of Q Television Network said in a statement Friday.
"It is still early in the game but we feel confident with our bid to purchase the network and further expand Q and the Queer television movement."
PrideVision has not publicly commented on the offer but it would be subject to approval from Canadian broadcast regulators.

investor news from Q 3/12/05
RE: Share Price (revised)
Triangle Multi-Media is aware and equally upset as the investors with the current share price. The company strongly believes that the fundamantel growth the company is experiencing is not in line with the valuation the market has put on the stock price. Triangle's management as well as investor relations will begin to aggressively contact money managers, analysts and market makers to fully inform them of the progress the company is making. The company believes this action will begin to align the share price with the company's achievements thus far. Understand that many important institutions are still unaware of this company and it is the duty of management and IR to proactively inform these people.
The company is also aware of certain claims of manipulation on the part of market makers. Although this is being investigated, they still must continue to grow the investor base with the contacting of the above stated people.

Types of Shells Can Vary Greatly
Trading shells come from companies that previously went public but have experienced financial hardship or even bankruptcy. They may or may not still be active companies and they may or may not be current in their SEC document filings. It is the responsibility of corporate counsel to "clean up" the shell; bringing SEC filings current and addressing the numerous regulatory requirements inherent in the process of a Reverse Merger. Counsel will also begin to open the lines of communication with the shareholder base in order to bring them current on the details of the Reverse Merger, educating and informing them of the intentions of the new company and acquainting them with the corporate officers.
Keep in mind that the former company attached to the shell may have been completely different than the one that has acquired it. Shareholders may have invested in a software company five years ago and now own shares of an automotive company. The previous business of the shell has relatively little to do with its current use.
Corporate officers who receive stock in the Reverse Merger do not receive immediately free-trading stock to ensure that they have a long-term perspective on the company. These shares fall under the Rule 144 transfer restrictions. The SEC has recently taken a clear position that these types of so called "free trading" shares obtained in a "shell" transaction do not qualify as free trading unless separately registered or held for a holding period of a minimum of one year and usually two years. Acquiring control of a "clean" trading company requires sophisticated, experienced counsel in the performance of due diligence.
Most Reverse Merger transactions are structured so that 90% PLUS of the outstanding stock will be held by the owners of the privately held company. In order to qualify to trade on most exchanges or over the counter, some amount (5% to 20%) of the total outstanding stock needs to be "trading stock" (not owned by insiders or company affiliates) for the public investors.
Restricted Stock
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has many rules and regulations that must be complied with. One of these regards the buying and selling of restricted stock. Restricted stock is stock that is not registered with the SEC, or stock held by insiders (even if registered). Insiders are generally directors, executive officers and persons or entities that they control or who control them. These persons/entities may sell stock under Rule 144 in any three-month period limited to the greater of: 1% of the outstanding shares of common stock and/or the average trading volume during the four calendar weeks preceding a sale.
Sales under Rule 144 must be made without violating: manner of sale provisions (in the market through a broker/dealer at current market prices), notice requirements (proper forms must be filed with the SEC under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 as well as certain reporting requirements under Rules 13 and 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), and the company must be current in its filing of the required SEC reports. Restricted stock can be sold or resold privately at any time. It cannot however, be sold through a stockbroker into the public stock market until the "restriction legend" is removed, usually by a Rule 144 transfer after a one to two year holding period or until the shares are fully registered.
Start With the SEC's EDGAR Database
The federal securities laws require many public companies to register with the SEC and file annual reports containing audited financial statements. For example, the following companies must file reports with the SEC:
All U.S. companies with more than 500 investors and $10 million in net assets; and
All companies that list their securities on The Nasdaq Stock Market or a major national stock exchange such as the New York Stock Exchange.
Anyone can access and download these reports from the SEC's EDGAR database for free. Before you invest in a company, check to see whether it's registered with the SEC and read its reports.
But some companies don't have to register their securities or file reports on EDGAR. For example, companies raising less than $5 million in a 12-month period may be exempt from registering the transaction under a rule known as "Regulation A." Instead, these companies must file a hard copy of the "offering circular" with the SEC containing financial statements and other information. Also, smaller companies raising less than one million dollars don't have to register with the SEC, but they must file a "Form D." Form D is a brief notice which includes the names and addresses of owners and stock promoters, but little other information. If you can't find a company on EDGAR, call the SEC at (202) 942-8090 to find out if the company filed an offering circular under Regulation A or a Form D. And be sure to request a copy.
The difference between investing in companies that register with the SEC and those that don't is like the difference between driving on a clear sunny day and driving at night without your headlights. You're asking for serious losses if you invest in small, thinly-traded companies that aren't widely known just by following the signs you read on Internet bulletin boards or online newsletters.
Contact Your State Securities Regulators
Don't stop with the SEC. You should always check with your state securities regulator, which you can find on the website of the North American Securities Administrators Association, to see if they have more information about the company and the people behind it. They can check the Central Registration Depository (CRD) and tell you whether the broker touting the stock or the broker's firm has a disciplinary history. They can also tell you whether they've cleared the offering for sale in your state.
Check with the NASD
The National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. can also give you a partial disciplinary history on the broker or firm that's touting the stock. Call their toll-free public disclosure hot-line at (800) 289-9999 or visit their website at http://www.nasdr.com.
Online bulletin boards – whether newsgroups, usenet, or web-based bulletin boards – have become an increasingly popular forum for investors to share information. Bulletin boards typically feature "threads" made up of numerous messages on various investment opportunities.
While some messages may be true, many turn out to be bogus – or even scams. Fraudsters often pump up a company or pretend to reveal "inside" information about upcoming announcements, new products, or lucrative contracts.
Also, you never know for certain who you're dealing with – or whether they're credible – because many bulletin boards allow users to hide their identity behind multiple aliases. People claiming to be unbiased observers who've carefully researched the company may actually be company insiders, large shareholders, or paid promoters. A single person can easily create the illusion of widespread interest in a small, thinly-traded stock by posting a series of messages under various aliases.
