The St Kitts Nevis Labour Party Conference 2014 was a resounding success. On the eighty-second (82nd) anniversary of the founding of the Labour Movement, the St Kitts Nevis Labour Party held its Annual Conference. That was on Sunday, 18th May 2014, at the Marriott Hotel, Frigate Bay. All things considered, it was a truly fitting tribute to our forebears and Labour’s 82 years of outstanding service to the people of our beloved nation. Official Delegates of the party, fraternal organisations, the Diplomatic Corps, Business and Community organisations attended the public session of the conference which was held in the first part of the day, the morning and early afternoon. The private session was held during the later afternoon and early evening. It was conservatively estimated that over twelve hundred (1,200) persons attended throughout the day. This exceeded last year’s Government for their hard work and untiring efforts which and in most glowing terms, and thanked him for his attendance of one thousand (1,000) which, up to that point, had been have helped to bring about the outstanding levels of leadership over the years, especially during the most the highest by far in over a decade. development achieved over the past nineteen (19) years recent and troubling ones.

He described the traitors as being therefore equally profuse, and sincerely grateful, in battle ahead. Pointing out that we have come too willfully blind to the harmful effects of their actions upon our nation. thanking for their services, members of the civil service, far to turn back, he re-emphasised that our nation The Honourable Mr. Asot Michael brought fraternal greetings from those employed in para-statal organisations (such as seeds strong and experienced leadership to the Antigua Labour Party, a relationship to goes back to the founding of crown corporations), the police and fire services, and continue moving us forward and upward to the our two great organisations.

There is a certain temptation to respond to this flurry of interest with the question, "so what's new?" Likewise, in a region whose history is one of subjugated identities, repeated instances of resistance on the part of the powerless, and in many cases, only recent attempts at chart- ing directions involving national sovereignty, issues of identity, community, peoplehood, and nationality have routinely received much attention. The reception that has been accorded Benedict Anderson's book, Imagined Communities (1991), has animated much inquiry into the nature of national sentiments and the direction of nationalist impulses. In this enter- prise, Anderson's book has stimulated much useful analysis.

  • Sounding Sentimental: American Popular Song from Nineteenth-Century Ballads to 1970S Soft Rock Emily Margot Gale Vancouver, BC B
    Sounding Sentimental: American Popular Song From Nineteenth-Century Ballads to 1970s Soft Rock Emily Margot Gale Vancouver, BC Bachelor of Music, University of Ottawa, 2005 Master of Arts, Music Theory, University of Western Ontario, 2007 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Music University of Virginia May, 2014 © Copyright by Emily Margot Gale All Rights Reserved May 2014 For Ma with love iv ABSTRACT My dissertation examines the relationship between American popular song and “sentimentality.” While eighteenth-century discussions of sentimentality took it as a positive attribute in which feelings, “refined or elevated,” motivated the actions or dispositions of people, later texts often describe it pejoratively, as an “indulgence in superficial emotion.” This has led an entire corpus of nineteenth- and twentieth-century cultural production to be bracketed as “schmaltz” and derided as irrelevant by the academy. Their critics notwithstanding, sentimental songs have remained at the forefront of popular music production in the United States, where, as my project demonstrates, they have provided some of the country’s most visible and challenging constructions of race, class, gender, sexuality, nationality, and morality. My project recovers the centrality of sentimentalism to American popular music and culture and rethinks our understandings of the relationships between music and the public sphere. In doing so, I add the dimension of sound to the extant discourse of sentimentalism, explore a longer history of popular music in the United States than is typical of most narratives within popular music studies, and offer a critical examination of music that—though wildly successful in its own day—has been all but ignored by scholars.

    Book of Ceremonies Girl Scouts – Diamonds of Arkansas, Oklahoma and Texas 11311 Arcade Dr., Little Rock, AR 72212 800-632-6894 www.girlscoutsdiamonds.org Ceremonies A Girl Scout Tradition From the earliest times, women, men and children have held ceremonies to celebrate numerous events such as changes of seasons, births, victories, or deaths. In modern times, it is often our ceremonies and traditions that bind us together as a family or group. Ceremonies can bring meaning to life experiences and offer a means of self- expression. Girl Scouts also have ceremonies to mark special events throughout the year. Like other ceremonies, Girl Scout ceremonies can be planned on a grand scale to celebrate major transitions (such as awards, bridging, investitures, and end-of-year activities). Or they can be planned on a smaller scale to celebrate more frequent occurrences (such as the beginning or ending of a meeting, a campout, friendship, etc.). From the very beginning, Girl Scout ceremonies have been observed to reinforce values, pass on traditions and give life to the beliefs set down in the Promise and Law by highlighting accomplishments that illustrate a Girl Scout belief. Ceremonies also reinforce the Girl Scout heritage by reminding us of the contributions made by the women who nurtured the movement in its infancy and began so many of its traditions. These special rituals form a framework for today’s actions and provide inspiration for the future. The rich Girl Scout heritage of strong traditional values should be cherished and preserved. Many of the unique characteristics of our program are passed on from generation to generation-through beautiful and precious ceremonies.

Shankar Noenoe K. Silva Keywords: Translation, ʻŌlelo Hawaiʻi, Hawaiian newspapers, ea, mana ABSTRACT Translation has had a huge impact on Hawaiian history, both as it unfolded and how it came to be understood, yet it remains mostly invisible and understudied in contemporary Hawaiian scholarship. The study of translation is uniquely suited for examining the power dynamics of languages, and how these differential forces play out on ideological and political battlefields, particularly in colonial situations. By providing a historical overview of the material practices of translation from the kingdom era until today, this dissertation makes legible some of the unseen operations of translation and points to its importance as an analytical frame for Hawaiian history. Individual chapters focus on major moments of translation from the advent of Hawaiian literacy to contemporary struggles over language and land: the translation of the Bible into Hawaiian, the establishment and modification of the kingdom’s bi-lingual legal system, Hawaiians’ powerful deployment of translation in the nūpepa, the twentieth century production of extractive scholarly translations, and contemporary refusals to translate. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS He lau, he mano, he kini, he lehu hoʻi.
