CSBA’s analytic-based research makes clear the inextricable link between defense strategies and budgets in fostering a more effective and efficient defense, and the need to transform the US military in light of the emerging military revolution.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Research Commons@Waikato USING TWITTER IN AN INDIGENOUS LANGUAGE An analysis of te reo Mäori tweets Te Taka Keegan* Paora Mato† Stacey Ruru‡ Abstract Language revitalization theory suggests that one way to improve the health of a language is to increase the number of domains where the language is used. Social network platforms provide a variety of domains where indigenous-language communities are able to communicate in their own languages. Although the capability exists, is social networking being used by indigenous-language communities? This paper reports on one particular social networking platform, Twitter, by using two separate methodologies. First, Twitter statistics collated from the Indigenous Tweets website are analysed. The data show that languages such as Basque, Haitian Creole, Welsh, Irish Gaelic, Frisian and Kapampangan do have a presence in the “Twittersphere”. Further analysis for te reo Mäori (the Mäori language) shows that tweets in te reo Mäori are rising and peak when certain events occur. The second methodology involved gathering empirical data by tweeting in te reo Mäori. This served two purposes: it allowed an ancillary check on the validity of the Indigenous Tweets data and it allowed the opportunity to determine if the number of indigenous- language tweets could be infl uenced by the actions of one tweeter. * Senior Lecturer, Computer Science Department, University of Waikato, Hamilton, New Zealand.

  • IFRC- Solomon Islands:Cyclone
    7 January 2003 SOLOMON ISLANDS: CYCLONE ZOE Information Bulletin N° 2 DREF Allocated: CHF 50,000 on stand-by This Information Bulleting is being issued based on the needs described below reflecting the information available at this time. Based on further updates and details from assessment reports, or should the situation deteriorate, the Federation will consider international support through an Appeal. The Situation On 28 December 2002 Cyclone Zoe, a category 5 tropical storm with wind speeds over 300 km/h swept through the islands of Tikopia, Anuta and Fataka, part of the Santa Cruz group of the Solomon Islands, about 1,000 km east of the capital Honiara. The Solomon Islands National Disaster Management Office (NDMO) estimated that approximately 2,000 people were affected in the two worst hit islands of Tikopia and Anuta. There was initially no direct contact with the islands as the radio communication system was not working. The first plane to fly over Tikopia on 1 January 2003 reported massive destruction and few signs of life. While confirming extensive damage to houses and crops, an Australian Air Force Hercules that circled Tikopia and Anuta the following day, found signs of reconstruction and no evidence of large-scale loss of life or injury. Both flights could not land because there is no airstrip on the islands. An NDMO coordinated team, including UNDAC, Red Cross, OXFAM and World Vision, was immediately formed to reach the islands by boat within 2-3 days in order to carry out an in-depth assessment of needs. The ship also carried initial relief supplies, including food, water, blankets, shelter materials and medical supplies.

    Case Study - Cyclonic Storm Cyclone Zoe, Solomon Islands December 27 - 29, 2002 Solomon Islanders Survive Cyclone Zoe Source: Source: DisasterRelief.org http://www.reliefweb.int/w/rwb.nsf/480fa8736b88bbc3c12564f6004c8ad5/79a568bbb0a6f01049256cb0 000b712d?OpenDocument Date: 15 Jan 2003 Cyclone Zoe battered remote regions of the Solomon Islands (SOI) in late December, but tenacious residents survived without fatalities, despite the incredible destruction inflicted by the storm. Anticipation escalated earlier this month regarding the fate of the 3,700 residents of the remote islands of Tikopia and Anuta, as the storm rendered communication systems inoperable across the region. When rescue vessels finally reached the islands almost one week later, officials discovered wi$espread destruction but no victims. Officials said islanders took shelter in caves, thus suffering only minor cuts and bruises throughout the ordeal. The vicious South Pacific storm slammed the islands with 33-foot waves driven by winds of more than 200 mph, washing away most of the coastal villages on the islands. "The assessment team found that damage to structures and crops on Anuta was significantly less than on Tikopia," Australian Foreign Minister Alexander Downer told the Disaster News Network. "There are sufficient food supplies for two or three months." In addition to demolished homes, buildings and churches, the water supply system on Tikopia suffered damages as well, but fresh drinking water has now been made available. Relief teams delivered medical supplies to Anuta and set up a clinic in the island's school, which was not damaged, Downer also reported. Local police installed VHF radio equipment to restore communications, he said.
