Page:4 The St.Kitts Nevis Observer - Friday September 20th, 2019 LOCAL NEWS EDITORIAL Stability This year, our beloved Federation celebrates 36 years since the at- tainment of Independence. It is a remarkable feat considering our size and our limited natural resources. These successes have been achieved because, to use a biblical term, the people had a mind to work. We congratulate all for their hard work over the years up to the present; and encourage those who have not lived up to their full po- tential to get on board and help with the unification, the upliftment and enrichment of our communities. In the same week that we celebrate Independence, we celebrated National Heroes Day. We salute all four of our heroes, and thank them for their sacrifices and their contributions to national develop- ment. We note, however, that all of them are politicians who had reached the pinnacle of their professions, the offices of Premier and of Prime Minister. The fact that we have only had 3 Prime Ministers and 4 Premiers (of Nevis) illustrates how stable we have been as a country, politi- cally, socially and economically. However, it is time to broaden the field to include other contributors. The public is already sens- ing this as, in a public discussion about the programme, the ques- tion was raised. At the National Heroes Park, we can find statues of the Heroes, but little about the other holders of the “lesser” National awards, but who played a large part in our development. Let us change that.

Over the past seventeen years this format has grown leaps and bounds and is very keenly watched by all stakeholders involved with the game. The popularity and the growth of T20 has led to cricket boards taking this format with uttermost seriousness and every major cricket playing nation has its own international team and domestic league. Over the past seventeen years the strategies involved in succeeding in this format have also evolved and teams at the international, franchise and domestic level are trying to evolve their playbook to gain a comparative advantage. Seventeen years since T20 cricket started, preparation for matches globally have changed from casual chats in team meetings. For coaches and captains, dossiers of 25 pages are common; these dissect the opponent's strengths and weaknesses, suggest set-plays, which are the optimum ways that a bowler can set up a batsman, and explain the best parts of the ground to target and which end might suit each bowler best This research paper will delve into a potential winning strategy for a T20 side.

Midgett Pepper and bones: the secessionist impulse in Nevis In: New West Indian Guide/ Nieuwe West-Indische Gids 78 (2004), no: 1/2, Leiden, 43-71 This PDF-file was downloaded from http://www.kitlv-journals.nl Downloaded from Brill.com09/30/2021 10:39:29AM via free access DOUGLAS MIDGETT PEPPER AND BONES: THE SECESSIONIST IMPULSE IN NEVIS INTRODUCTION The emergence of the often twinned issues of "globalization" and "nation- alization" in ethnographic discourse obscures, with new terminology, the fact that for some anthropologists these processes have been central to their work for a considerable period of time.1 For those whose academie interest has focused on the Caribbean region and who. attempt some sense of the historical determinants of these social formations, the current "discovery" of the importance of global forces in the lives of ordinary folks in locales removed from centers of industry, commerce, and intellectual production may be somewhat puzzling. 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.

  • Clw Lecture 23-2-17
    HISTORY & HERITAGE WEEK LECTURE – 23rd FEBRUARY 2017 I am honoured by the invitation of UWI Open Campus to deliver this lecture as part of History & Heritage Week which coincides with the 50th anniversary of the attainment of Associated Statehood by St. Kitts, Nevis and Anguilla on 27th February 1967. History and Heritage Week is held to focus the attention of the community on the importance of its history and heritage to the life and development of our country and its people. We all know the very wise saying that a nation that forgets its past has no future. We should be ever conscious of our history, ancient and modern, we should be recording it for posterity and teaching it to our youth. We are not doing very well at that. I urge UWI, the Heritage Society, the Brimstone Hill Society, the CFB College and the business community to knock heads together urgently to rectify this societal deficiency. I owe my love of history to two great teachers. The first is Sir Probyn Inniss to whom I pay tribute this evening as a patriot of the highest order and an example to be followed in his humble and dignified contribution to our society in so many ways- as a teacher, a Civil Servant, a Governor, a man of the Church, a historian, a lawyer and a leader of Brimstone Hill Society and other heritage causes. The second outstanding history teacher who influenced me greatly was Mr. J.B.C Haynes of blessed memory who made history an enthralling subject and whose command of the language was brilliant.
