Media Release Radio Jamaica and the Gleaner to Combine
MEDIA RELEASE RADIO JAMAICA AND THE GLEANER TO COMBINE MEDIA OPERATIONS The boards of Radio Jamaica Limited, (RJR) and The Gleaner Company Limited, (Gleaner) today announced that their directors have signed an agreement which will see the combination of their respective media businesses. The transaction, which is to be pursued through a court approved scheme of amalgamation, will be a stock for stock deal where Radio Jamaica Limited will issue and exchange 1.2 billion shares on a one for one basis to shareholders of The Gleaner Company Limited for 100 percent of a newly formed subsidiary Gleaner Company (Media) Limited (GCML) which will hold the assets of the media entities of the Gleaner Company. Simultaneous with the transaction, the remaining publicly traded Gleaner Company Limited, with non-media assets comprising mainly real estate and other investments will be renamed. This will result in the shareholders of the Gleaner Company Limited owning 50 percent of Radio Jamaica Limited’s common stock and existing RJR shareholders owning the remaining 50-percent of the combined business. The coming together will create the country’s leading Media Company, providing, print, online, radio, television, cable television and new media products and services. "This is the most exciting development for media in over 50 years. The combination of RJR’s and the Gleaner’s leadership in print and electronic media, our track record of credibility, our commitment to high journalistic standards and excellent customer service are outstanding positives for stakeholders in both companies," said Gary Allen, Managing Director, Radio Jamaica Limited, "The companies have been the leaders in all of the industry’s most important innovations in media over the last 180 years and this merger will accelerate the pace of that innovation to deliver superior products and services within the highly competitive and dynamic marketplace in which we operate”, Allen said. -

Rhythmic Literacy: Poetry, Reading and Public Voices in Black Atlantic Poetics
RHYTHMIC LITERACY: POETRY, READING AND PUBLIC VOICES IN BLACK ATLANTIC POETICS A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY By Janet Neigh May, 2010 Examining Committee Members: Rachel Blau DuPlessis, English Suzanne Gauch, English Jena Osman, English Harvey Neptune, History Jahan Ramazani, External Member, English, University of Virginia ii © Copyright 2010 by Janet Neigh All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Rhythmic Literacy: Poetry, Reading and Public Voices in Black Atlantic Poetics analyzes the poetry of the African American Langston Hughes and the Jamaican Louise Bennett during the 1940s. Through an examination of the unique similarities of their poetic projects, namely their engagement of performance to build their audiences, their experiments with poetic personae to represent vernacular social voices, their doubleness as national and transnational figures, their circulation of poetry in radio and print journalism and their use of poetry as pedagogy to promote reading, this dissertation establishes a new perspective on the role of poetry in decolonizing language practices. While Hughes and Bennett are often celebrated for their representation of oral language and folk culture, this project reframes these critical discussions by drawing attention to how they engage performance to foster an embodied form of reading that draws on Creole knowledge systems, which I term rhythmic literacy. Growing up in the U.S and Jamaica in the early twentieth century, Hughes and Bennett were both subjected to a similar Anglophone transatlantic schoolroom poetry tradition, which they contend with as one of their only available poetic models. I argue that memorization and recitation practices play a formative role in the development of their poetic projects. -

Excellence Under the Theme “Jamaican Youth, Embracing Support"
“Jamaican Youth, Embracing Support" EG>B:B>C>HI:G»HNDJI=6L6G9H;DG Excellence under the theme “Jamaican Youth, Embracing Support" Sunday, December 6, 2009 Emancipation Park THE PRIME MINISTER’S YOUTH AWARDS FOR EXCELLENCE MINISTRY OF The Prime Minister’s Youth Awards for Excellence is the highest YOUTH, SPORTS AND CULTURE honour bestowed upon Jamaicans between the ages of 15 and 24. Since 1998, this National Honour has been conferred upon young Jamaicans who have achieved eminent National and International distinction in the categories of: “Jamaican Youth, Sports Youth in Service Embracing Support" The Arts and Culture Academics Agriculture Leadership Journalism Entrepreneurship The Prime Minister Youth Organisation Service Award Produced by: The National Centre for Youth Development through the Ministry of Youth, Sports and Culture 30 Notes - Message - The Prime Minister’s Youth Awards for Excellence affords the ideal opportunity to bring to the fore, the sterling achieve- ments of our young people – achieve- ments that may have gone unnoticed, without the rightful recognition. This oc- casion therefore, places our achievers in the ‘spotlight’ allowing them to be shin- ing examples for others to emulate. In today’s society, our youths are grappling with a myriad of chal- lenges – challenges that many of us never confronted at that stage of our development. Rampant indiscipline and escalating levels of crime and violence, within our nation’s schools, have caused grave concern for many of us. Regrettably, such actions are not confined within the boundaries of the school walls, but extend beyond, into the wider society. These problems with which we wrestle, are merely symptoms of a much wider problem – a general breakdown in family life and a blatant dis- regard for law and order in the society. -
