I note, with considerable satisfaction, the detail presented by the Chief of the Defence Force, Chief of Navy, Maritime Commander and Commander, Australian Naval Aviation Group in previous editions of Slipstream. The picture they were able to present demonstrates the significant enhancements currently being made to the Fleet Air Arm - in terms of equipment and facilities. We are indeed fortunate to have such an expansion of capabilities in /" 0 "" I C2I a time of relative constraint elsewhere in Defence. I would like to focus my comments on the personnel aspects of this expansion , for without the right people, new equipment and facilities are useless . I have to say we are being challenged at the moment to find and retain people for our demanding profession. This is a reflection of the changes in our society. At a recent conference I heard the Warrant Officer of the Navy describe the contemporary sailor. Amongst his or her attributes, the modern sailor is likely to have matriculated from high school, holds or has traded shares on the stockmarket, is computer literate and owns the latest communication technology, will probably have held a job before joining up and will expect to hold others after a stint in the Service. Importantly, he or she will likely comprehend and have a considered opinion on all the social issues seen in the newspaper and practiced on the street today and will expect to be able to discuss them freely. In short, the new sailor (and officer for that matter) is different from his or her forebears. Our challenge today, therefore, is to align our existing ethos and values with these contemporary attitudes without losing focus on our goal - to defend Australia. We are fortunate in the Fleet Air Arm to have the opportunity to meet these new expectations with ideals that have not changed substantially with time. We still offer challenging careers, with responsibility given early on, and with the opportunity to work on new and innovative equipment. Furthermore, in today's embarked helicopter Flights, where each individual is a critical member in the team, the sailor can draw satisfaction from seeing his or her direct contribution to this tight-knit group. When ably led these Flights show all the hallmarks of the Fleet Air Arm's heritage - professionalism, pride and success. We must encourage this in the newest members of the Fleet Air Arm. Thus, the Fleet Air Arm Association has an important role to play here. Just as the Association is bound by an esprit de corps forged in earlier days, we need to share that spirit and demonstrate its advantages to the contemporary Fleet Air Arm sailor and officer. I encourage existing members of the Association to engage the younger members of the Fleet Air Arm when the opportunity arises and welcome them to the ranks of the Association. 2 Slipstream CAPTTW BARRETTRAN EDITOR'S BIOGRAPHY CaptainTim Barrettis currentlythe CommandingOfficer of HMAS CORNER Albatrossat Nowra.He is responsiblefor the administrationof the NavalAir Stationand for the provisionof operationalsupport to Onceagain I wouldlike to thankthe many the numerouslodger units on site. people who have been in contact by all mannerof means.Your input and support Captain Barrett was a Junior Entry cadet midshipmanto RANCin 1976.

Platoff Introduction Viewers of international sporting events have become accustomed to seeing informal sporting flags waved by citizens of various countries. The most famil- iar of these flags, of course, are the “Boxing Kangaroo” flag used to represent Australia and the “Fighting Kiwi” flag used by fans from New Zealand. Both of these flags have become common at the Olympic Games when athletes from those nations compete. Recently a new flag of this type has been displayed at international soccer matches and the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics. Unlike the Kangaroo and Kiwi flags, this new flag has been constructed using a defaced national flag, the Russian tricolor flag of white, blue, and red horizontal stripes, readopted as the flag of the Russian Federation after the breakup of the Soviet Union. A number of variations of the flag design have been used, but all of them contain two elements: the Russian text Vperëd Rossiia, which means “Forward Russia”, and a bear which appears to be break- ing its way out of the flag.

  • Global Politics and (Trans) National Arts: Staging the “War on Terror” In
    Global Politics and (Trans)National Arts: Staging the “War on Terror” in New York, London, and Cairo A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of English of the College of Arts and Sciences by George Potter M.A. Indiana State University May 2005 Committee Chair: Jana Braziel, Ph.D. Abstract In the post-9/11 era, over a hundred theatric performances exploring the fallout from the “war on terror” have been staged in Cairo, London, and New York. Though never discussed in relation to one another, the works from major cultural centers on three continents provide valuable insights into how people from three cultures have responded to the wars and political policies since 9/11, as well as how they have attempted to form their resistance to those policies. To explore this, my study begins with a historiography of “terrorism,” exploring the term’s roots in the French Revolution as a means by which to discuss state violence, a use that was standard throughout the nineteenth century. However, during the twentieth century, as the nation-state became the normative structure for political organization, resistance to it— “subnationals,” as they would come to be called in State Department parlance—were redefined as “terrorist.” Therefore, the construction of the United Nations, the development of human rights discourse, and the codification of terrorism laws occurred within the same era of organizing (un)acceptable political behavior. The next three chapters of the dissertation then undertake examining theatric works within each of the nations under consideration alone.
