It describes that part of the film industry with colorful, exaggerated, overly dramatic, music-and-dance-filled characteristics rather than this nation’s entire film making. In contrast to Hollywood, from which it takes its tongue-in-cheek name, Bollywood is no actual place; rather, it is the term that best describes a style of film making. Bollywood style in its broadest meaning is the mass media vehicle for entertainment that feeds some of the amusement needs of a population with a variety of languages and ethnic/caste backgrounds. Themes are simple and predictable for the most part, with a great degree of flexibility in the telling of even the most well known story in order to make a relevant point on a particular issue or current event.

    HANNAH WARNER JEWELLERY DESIGNER COLLECTION HANNAH WARNER Since the launch of her Debut collection in Autumn 2009, Hannah Warner is fast becoming one of the most talked about, up and coming jewellery designers of a new generation. Initially based in London, where she studied at Wimbledon School of Art and later at London Metropolitan, Hannah then moved to New York, continuing her studies at the prestigious Gemological Institute of America. Hannah now lives between these two spirited cities, drawing on her surroundings as a direct inspiration to her work. “I take a great deal of influence from everything around me in day to day life and also from different cultures, be it the rigidity of man-made structures, architecture, city life or something more organic, natural, evolving.” Hannah is a passionate traveler and this is evident within her work both stylistically and in the precious stones she uses, many of which are hand sourced from India and the far east. Hannah Warner’s escalating success and reputation within the industry is generating considerable interest from both fashion insiders and celebrity clients alike. She is currently working on her next collection as well as various fashion and art collaborations and commissions.

    Excerpted from Kathy Peiss, Zoot Suit: The Enigmatic Career of an Extreme Style (Philadelphia: University of Pennsylvania Press, 2011). 6 For JTASZooting Around use the World only ‘‘ ome authorities feel that the only thing to do is to let the whole myste- rious business wear itself out and disappear through inner exhaus- Stion of its possibilities,’’ reported Agnes Meyer in the wake of the Los Angeles riot.1 In fact, it was much harder than those authorities thought to shrug off the zoot suit. During the war and for decades there- after, this style traveled across time and place, appealing to youths whose lives otherwise diverged. It turned up in wartime Great Britain and Aus- tralia, despite orders by their governments to conserve cloth for the du- ration. Bahamian farm hands, brought to Florida to pick crops, surprised their hosts by appearing in zoot suits. Canada had its own versions of zoot-suit unrest in the summer of 1944, and in occupied France, zazous sporting long coats and narrow trousers outraged officials. After the war, young people in other countries—from the stiliagi of the Soviet Union to the tsotsis of South Africa—picked up and adapted elements of an extreme style that had originated in American culture. The zoot suit was never a leading cultural product or intentional export of the United States in an era when the nation’s films, music, and consumer goods were reaching around the globe. Yet this seem- ingly ephemeral fashion traveled to many places during and after World War II. It is a telling example of a commodity that circulated 158 Chapter 6 without marketing campaigns and advertising but rather along ob- scure routes and through informal networks of influence—a process that has likely been more common than studies of consumer culture have recognized.

I recall being somewhat overwhelmed by her effortless identification with the Fijian people, her knowledge of their way of life, and her fluency in the language. After eighteen years' service, Miss Hames had already made a substantial contribution in the field of education. Those years were, however, but a beginning - the thirty which followed were to be a period of far-reaching change for the peoples of Fiji, and were to bring to the fore one of Miss Hames' most endearing qualities - her readiness to accept new ways and ideas. Not for her the backward looking nostalgia for the "old days". She finds the present exciting, is delighted to see so many of her former pupils realising their full potential as leaders in the community, and must surely rejoice in the knowledge that she has contributed so much towards this.

  • By Beryl Oduor CHAPTER ONE
    By Beryl Oduor CHAPTER ONE The silence in the huge library was eerie. The huge shelves cast shadows within the library and the tables were put a distance apart and were covered with books which the previous readers left there. A young woman was trying to put them back in the shelf but there were many different books from slots that she couldn't see whatever progress she was making. Then a deep voice broke the silence as it reverberated within the walls of the library `Wendy!' `Yes sir,' the young woman hurried to him. She was startled as she was very new working at the library. She couldn't even remember to address him the right way but then she remembered that she had addressed him the way he wanted to be addressed. She had been slightly briefed on how to address the kings and queen but Gorham, unlike the others, didn't like being called by his title `Your Majesty'. In fact whenever someone addressed him like that in his personal quarters that person would be immediately transferred to the public areas. Wendy walked over to the table where the middle-aged king had been seated. `Have you seen the Maverick volume seventeen?' he asked looking up at her curiously. `I put it back on the shelf,' she said worriedly then continued, `I'll just get it.' then she was walking away before he said something else. There was a young man who had allocated a seat for himself at the end of the room and was watching the exchange.
