    Smith 1 Robert Smith Professor Artin SPEECH 1315 27 February 2015 Cultural Speech Outline: Surf Culture Specific Purpose: To inform my audience of the surf sub culture, so that they will have a better understanding of it, and may have a different view of how the surf culture impacted lives and society.

    John Paul Berry Jr [email protected] www.bellecruises.com 443-889-5991 HONOLULU, HI OVERVIEW Introduction Visitors to Honolulu may hear that, because it's Hawaii's largest city, it is less "Hawaiian" than the rest of the state. The high-rise office buildings and busy traffic of Honolulu don't match people's romantic ideal of what Hawaii should be—remote, palm-fringed beaches and lavish resorts. In truth, Honolulu is probably the most Hawaiian part of the state, because it best reflects the reality of today's Hawaii. Honolulu contains a multicultural mix of people, a beautiful landscape of greenery and ocean, and a place where amazing events have unfolded—many of them recounted in the city's historic sites and museums. All that's exciting about big-city life—theater, opera, museums, shopping, nightclubs, fine dining—is set against Honolulu's backdrop of majestic mountains, lush rain forests and sweeping vistas. With Waikiki along one edge of the city, travelers to Honolulu even have a beach resort. Waikiki remains Hawaii's busiest tourist spot and makes a good departure point for exploring recreational possibilities in Honolulu and the rest of Oahu. Active travelers can ramble through a rainforest and discover ancient religious shrines, swim with the green sea turtles off Waikiki Beach and surf past Diamond Head. Other activities include hiking a coastline trail, watching for humpback whales, visiting World War II memorials or playing a round of golf at a variety of public and resort golf courses. Visitors to Honolulu can choose from the best of both worlds—the city's bustle and the beauty of nature.

    More than Surfing: Inclusive Surf Therapy Informed by the Voices of South African Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder Nicci van der Merwe1 and Paula Yarrow2 Keywords: surf therapy, mental health, Autism Spectrum Disorder, neuro-diverse, community-based Author Biographies: Nicci van der Merwe, holds a Masters degree in Programme Evaluation (University of Cape Town). She has 10 years’ quantitative and qualitative research experience in the development sector, which includes programme monitoring, evaluation and learning (MEL) experience. Her Criminology and Psychology background coupled with her work experience have refined her passion for and understanding of the necessary requirements when working with children and youth from volatile backgrounds and their specialised needs. Nicci is driven to contribute to furthering development initiatives; ensuring that they are adequately designed, effectively planned and executed, and thoroughly evaluated, contributing to the successful achievement of the envisaged impact. She believes that this is critical when duplicating similar initiatives based on the “so what” question and supported by sound empirical research; which she believes, cannot be done without understanding and recognising young people’s needs, their behaviour, the dreams and desires and overcoming their worst fears. Paula Yarrow, holds a degree in Sport and Exercise Science and a Bachelor of Laws (LLB), specialising in children's rights. She has 8 years of experience living and working with grassroots Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) in Eastern and Southern Africa, as well as South East Asia. Based in Cape Town, Paula specialises in supporting organisations to establish skills and systems to comply with international standards in financial stewardship; monitoring, evaluation and learning and child protection and safeguarding.

    The Cocoa Beach Surf Museum’s Quarterly Newsletter WW aa vv ee LL ee nn gg tt hh ss Volume 4 – Issue 3 Fall/Winter 2011 We are thrilled to have permission to bring you this article by Pamela Whitman Mattson, fi rst published in the April/May 2011 issue of The Ocean Magazine. Thank you to Robert Wald and Pamela Whitman Mattson. As in the original article, all photographs are courtesy of the Whitman Family Collection. EAST WEST - The William Francis Whitman Family Introduction In general, very little is known on the West Coast and beyond of the original East Coast surfing pioneers of yesteryear, including a most unusual family known as the Whitmans. The Ocean Magazine feels it is now time to pay due respect and honor this most unique family. As will be revealed in the following article centered around the life of William Francis Whitman (1914 - 2007), you will learn of the remarkable influence that this incredibly sharp and highly driven, productive family has had on surfing and culture. Three generations of family members have been, and continue to be, players in professional careers and hobbies from surfing, horticulture, free skin diving, spearfishing, fiberglass boat manu- facturing, cinematography, aeronautics, and a host of other activities. Read on. ~ William Francis Whitman was the first of three sons born to a Chicago industrialist who owned the second largest printing company in the city. Following William came the birth of his second eldest brother, Stanley, both of whom Pictured from far left are the Whitman brothers: William, Stanley and Dudley.
