We toured the bike path together and viewed areas of concern such as low hanging tree limbs, improper planting of invasive species, BLOOD DRIVE and tree roots that are lifting the pavement.

Because of rural characteristics and relatively isolated location of much of District 2, it has become a prime area for dumping AVs. All along the shoulders of Kamehameha Highway you will find an enormous amount of cars and trucks that have been either stripped for parts, set on fire, or both. I wanted to recognize and thank the Department of Customer Services for their efforts in removing abandoned vehicles in a timely manner. As of March 11th, after submitting a request for removal of 20 abandoned or derelict vehicles a little more than a month ago, my office determined that 14 have been removed. While my office accounts and reports the abandoned vehicles we find, I would like to ask for your help by contacting my office when you see an AV. This would go a long way to helping rid our communities of these blights. You may also fill out the online form for AVs at: http:// www.honolulu.gov/csdavcomplaints/. Finally, I wanted to give an update on Resolution 19-20, which requests the Governor to declare a state of emergency for Kamehameha Highway from Kahalu‘u to Laniakea due to the extensive shoreline erosion. Originally the resolution requested for the emergency declaration to be applied from Kahalu‘u to Sunset Beach, but after speaking with community members, it became apparent that the amendment needed to be made to extend the request to Laniakea. The resolution was adopted unanimously and I am in the process of meeting with state and federal officials to determine the next course of action. As always, please do not hesitate to contact my office at 768-5002 if you have any questions or concerns I can be of assistance with.

  • Surfing, Gender and Politics: Identity and Society in the History of South African Surfing Culture in the Twentieth-Century
    Surfing, gender and politics: Identity and society in the history of South African surfing culture in the twentieth-century. by Glen Thompson Dissertation presented for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) at Stellenbosch University Supervisor: Prof. Albert M. Grundlingh Co-supervisor: Prof. Sandra S. Swart Marc 2015 0 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Declaration By submitting this thesis electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the author thereof (unless to the extent explicitly otherwise stated) and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. Date: 8 October 2014 Copyright © 2015 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved 1 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Abstract This study is a socio-cultural history of the sport of surfing from 1959 to the 2000s in South Africa. It critically engages with the “South African Surfing History Archive”, collected in the course of research, by focusing on two inter-related themes in contributing to a critical sports historiography in southern Africa. The first is how surfing in South Africa has come to be considered a white, male sport. The second is whether surfing is political. In addressing these topics the study considers the double whiteness of the Californian influences that shaped local surfing culture at “whites only” beaches during apartheid. The racialised nature of the sport can be found in the emergence of an amateur national surfing association in the mid-1960s and consolidated during the professionalisation of the sport in the mid-1970s.

Professional female surfers, in particular, are drawing greater media attention than ever before and are seen by surf companies as the perfect vehicle to develop this global industry further. Because lifestyle branding has been developed as a modern marketing strategy, this thesis examines the lifestyle marketing practices of the three major surfing companies Billabong, Rip Curl and Quicksilver/Roxy through an investigation of the sponsorship experiences of fifteen sponsored female surfers. The research paradigm guiding this study is an interpretive approach that applies Doris Lessing’s (1991) concept of conformity and Michel Foucault’s (1979) notion of surveillance and the technologies of the self. An ethnographic approach was utilised to examine the main research purpose, namely to: determine the impact of lifestyle marketing by Billabong, Rip Curl and Quicksilver/Roxy on sponsored female surfers.

P. 2 1 Digit zed by Google \ PREFACE AT the request of the Board of Education, I have .fi. endeavored to write a simple and concise history of the Hawaiian people, which, it is hoped, may be useful to the teachers and higher classes in our schools. As there is, however, no book in existence that covers the whole ground, and as the earlier histories are entirely out of print, it has been deemed best to prepare not merely a school-book, but a history for the benefit of the general public. This book has been written in the intervals of a labo­ rious occupation, from the stand-point of a patriotic Hawaiian, for the young people of this country rather than for foreign readers. This fact will account for its local coloring, and for the prominence given to certain topics of local interest. Especial pains have been taken to supply the want of a correct account of the ancient civil polity and religion of the Hawaiian race. This history is not merely a compilation. It is based upon a careful study of the original authorities, the writer having had the use of the principal existing collections of Hawaiian manuscripts, and having examined the early archives of the government, as well as nearly all the existing materials in print.
