2014 Oregon-Idaho Journal JOURNAL 2014 Oregon-Idaho Journal of the Forty-Sixth Session Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference The United Methodist Church held at the Salem Convention Center Salem, Oregon June 12-14, 2014 Bishop Grant Hagiya, Presiding Laura Jaquith Bartlett, Secretary THANK YOU In this second year of editing the Conference Journal, I hope I made fewer er- rors than I did the first year! I did notice that my familiarity with all things Oregon- Idaho Annual Conference has increased tremendously. As with all things, we learn best by doing. The Conference Journal is an amazing compendium of information and I recom- mend it to you as a source for answers and fascinating facts. The information in the Journal is collected by many persons throughout the Annual Conference, some Conference Staff and some clergy and lay persons who take on these crucial tasks in addition to their regular callings. The editor of the Journal is dependent upon the work of many others. This year those persons included Ted Wimer, Belinda Denicola, Sandra Reinemer, Warren Light, Jeanne Knepper, Brian Shimer, Todd Bartlett, Gay Jeffery, Kay Burdick, Barbara Collins, Charlotte Hartman, Greg Nelson, Becky DeLurey, Lisa Pronovost, Jerryn Johnston, Kim Fields and, of course, Laura Jaquith Bartlett as Conference Secretary. I want to express my deepest apprecia- tion for your work, as well as your encouragement and support. Editorial decisions are made in the hopes of providing you with a reference book that is currently useful, but also creating an historical document which will provide information for generations yet to come. As a current reference, this print Journal is best used in partnership with the Annual Conference website: www.umoi. org and in consultation with the district offices. Membership of boards and agen- cies can change between Annual Conference Sessions, as can individual’s contact information. The website and your district office can provide you with the most up-to-date information. As editor, I take responsibility for any errors. Please let me hear from you with any suggestions or corrections. To update information in the directories, please contact your district office. Linda Grund-Clampit, editor This Journal is established by the Annual Conference as its official record for 2014.

    3_HERACLIDOU 14-02-13 12:52 Σελίδα47 Making a British Atmosphere in Cyprus, 1931–1939: ∞ ‘Coup D’état’ on Greek-Cypriot Elementary Education? ANTIGONE HERACLIDOU Abstract This article aims to analyse the steps taken by the British administration for the introduction of fundamental changes in the elementary education system between 1931 and 1939 together with the motives behind them. The uprising of October 1939 in Cyprus resulted in the imposition of an authoritative regime with the fundamental aim to eradicate the enosis movement in order to restore political stability. Since the British themselves always recognised the centrality of educational questions in such a process, this article will explore how elementary education was reformed during the 1930s in order to serve the objective of introducing a ‘British atmosphere’ into the island’. A series of laws which gave the Government complete control over elementary education, including the curriculum and the text-books, led the Church of Cyprus, which had so far been enjoying the privilege to be responsible for Greek-Cypriot education, to speak of de- hellenisation and a coup d’état on elementary education. To what extent these accusations were right will constitute part of our discussion. Keywords: Enosis, education, elementary schools, Cyprus, Church, de-hellenisation, 1931 uprising, curriculum, teachers, British administration The education system in Cyprus has always been interwoven with shifting political developments both domestically and internationally. In an island with mixed identities, ruled by foreign powers and now divided in two, the education system inevitably became a reflection of controversies and disagreements. Consequently, education presented an effective stage from which political manifestations and interests were ardently projected.

  • Historic Building Appraisals of the 8 New Items
    N186 Historic Building Appraisal Entrance Gate, Enclosing Walls and Shrine Yan Shau Wai, San Tin, Yuen Long, N.T. Yan Shau Wai (仁壽圍) in San Tin (新田) is a walled village established by the Historical Mans. They are the descendants of Man Tin-shui (文天瑞), a brother of Man Interest Tin-cheung (文天祥) who was a renowned patriot fighting against the Mongols to protect the Song emperors in the late Southern Song (南宋,1127-1279) dynasty. Man Sai-gor (文世歌, 1390 – 1457) moved from Tuen Mun (屯門) to San Tin in the Ming (明, 1368 – 1644) dynasty, and is regarded as the founding ancestor (開基祖) of the Man clan there. Yan Shau Wai is the first village established by the Mans in San Tin having a history of about 600 years, i.e. established around the fifteenth century. In order to protect the villagers against banditry and piracy, the settlement of Yan Shau Wai was enclosed by an entrance gate, walls and watchtowers at the corners. Within the walls were closely-packed row houses with lanes in between. As time passed, the lineage grew in size and their settlements expanded to include Tung Chan Wai (東鎮 圍), Shek Wu Wai (石湖圍), Fan Tin Tsuen (蕃田村), Wing Ping Tsuen (永平村), On Lung Tsuen (安龍村), Tsing Lung Tsuen (青龍村), San Lung Tsuen (新龍村) and Chau Tau Tsuen (洲頭村) as well. They, together with Yan Shau Wai, were collectively known as three wai (三圍, literally three walled villages) and six tsuen (六村, literally six villages). According to the village elders, since their defensive power had been greatly enhanced due to the growth of the clan in size, the other Man’s villages were not built with entrance gates, enclosing walls and watchtowers like Yan Shau Wai.

Dissertations - ALL. 762. https://surface.syr.edu/etd/762 This Dissertation is brought to you for free and open access by the SURFACE at SURFACE. It has been accepted for inclusion in Dissertations - ALL by an authorized administrator of SURFACE. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract This dissertation examines private gun ownership and its sociocultural and political implications in modern China from 1860 to 1949, a period characterized by foreign invasion, constant military conflicts, and political decentralization. During this period, foreign guns, along with their Chinese imitations, flooded society. In response to the social disorder, many Chinese civilians turned to this new class of weaponry for self-defense. While historians have understood the gun in China in terms of military modernization, this dissertation sets the privately-owned gun in its social and political context, and studies why Chinese civilians chose to arm themselves with guns and how governments of different periods responded to their armed civilians. This study argues that growing social violence and the state’s inability to respond to it led Chinese men and women seek to obtain their own weapons. This demand was fueled by the gun’s powerful symbolism in public culture and social life, and by beliefs that guns were a source of social status and self-empowerment.
