They contain the fulfilment of hopes and the realisation of some expected disappointments; the cycle of promising arrivals and fond departures; the prizes and the punishments. Inevitably the pluses outweigh the minuses, and you see that you will come to the same rough judgement as that made by your many predecessors, that all these micro-calculations, this tally of the good and the not-so-good, point to the fact that that the College remains on the same long path to progress that it has followed since it was founded almost 501 years ago. I find it very difficult to look back to this moment in the calendar last year with the same sense of cheerful optimism, when we announced our plans for our Quincentenary celebrations to our Old Members. For just as the festivities finally drew to a close, as we started to roll up our banners, the last few items of merchandise were packaged up and the remaining bottles of champagne were poured, we were rocked by news of the deaths of two close members of the Corpus family. In mid-December, Chris Foster, a porter here for ten years and a friend to hundreds of students in that time, died after a very short illness. Just two weeks later, on the night before Christmas 3 The Pelican Record Eve, Dr. Mark Whittow, Fellow in Byzantine History since 2009, was killed in a road accident on his way to spend the holidays with his family at their home in Northamptonshire. At the last Governing Body meeting of 2017, I had been able to announce the joyous news that Mark had been elected to be Provost of Oriel from next September – it had been a matter of great pride to us. Chris and Mark leave an enormous gap here and we begin the new calendar year with heavy hearts. Having been part of our celebrations, I know that both Chris and Mark would want us to hold on to our many happy memories from 2017. And many glorious moments there were. “Little Corpus” made its presence known around the world, with two remarkable exhibitions of some of its library treasures in Washington DC and New York, attended by 40,000 visitors. There was an alumni ball attended by 500 guests, which took us back to Tudor times, with music and dancing, jugglers and an array of Henrician peasantry, presided over by Bishop Fox himself. The positioning of a mounted knight in battle-armour by the main gate was an experiment I was tempted to continue for next year’s Corpus Challenge. In all over fifty events were held worldwide, an endeavour that drew on every last drop of energy from our development team, especially Sarah Salter, our Head of Alumni Relations, who had returned from long-term absence with serious health issues to lead the charge on our activities programme. Some of the ways we marked the anniversary were rather more cerebral in tone. The summer saw the publication by the University Press of a new College history by Emeritus Fellow Thomas Charles- Edwards and our archivist Julian Reid. This followed the launch earlier in the year of ‘The Great Little College’, a collection of reminiscences by Corpuscles, edited by Old Member Stephen Hickey. Both have been selling very

No doubt this is exacerbated by the perception within the Anglican Church itself of its crisis being so great that this appointment is no less crucial than that of Augustine himself. Indeed, one quails at the expectations currently being heaped upon the should­ ers of Robert Runcie's successor, whoever he transpires to be. And in an ecu­ menical age, when, whether we like it or not, all our destinies are inextricably entwined, we pray that the mind of Christ may be clearly discerned in spite of the lobbying, party pressures, and glare of media exposure.

  • Panama: Political and Economic Conditions and U.S. Relations
    Panama: Political and Economic Conditions and U.S. Relations Mark P. Sullivan Specialist in Latin American Affairs November 27, 2012 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov RL30981 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress Panama: Political and Economic Conditions and U.S. Relations Summary With five successive elected civilian governments, the Central American nation of Panama has made notable political and economic progress since the 1989 U.S. military intervention that ousted the regime of General Manuel Antonio Noriega from power. Current President Ricardo Martinelli of the center-right Democratic Change (CD) party was elected in May 2009, defeating the ruling center-left Democratic Revolutionary Party (PRD) in a landslide. Martinelli was inaugurated to a five-year term on July 1, 2009. Martinelli’s Alliance for Change coalition with the Panameñista Party (PP) also captured a majority of seats in Panama’s National Assembly. Panama’s service-based economy has been booming in recent years – with a growth rate of 7.6% in 2010 and 10.6% in 2011 – largely because of the ongoing Panama Canal expansion project, now slated for completion in early 2015. The CD’s coalition with the PP fell apart at the end of August 2011when President Martinelli sacked PP leader Juan Carlos Varela as Foreign Minister. Varela, however, retains his position as Vice President. Tensions between the CD and the PP had been growing throughout 2011, largely related to which party would head the coalition’s ticket for the 2014 presidential election. Despite the breakup of the coalition, the strength of the CD has grown significantly since 2009 because of defections from the PP and the PRD and it now has a majority on its own in the legislature.
