Styles As the Main Musical Source of Preservation of Endangered Languages in a Global Context
COMMERCIAL MUSIC (POP CULTURE) STYLES AS THE MAIN MUSICAL SOURCE OF PRESERVATION OF ENDANGERED LANGUAGES IN A GLOBAL CONTEXT. Leon Gilberto Medellin Lopez (Student of bachelor degree in karawitan in ISI Surakarta) -Mexico [email protected] Abstract Nowadays, the acknowledge of the big amount of endangered languages around the globe is still increasing while the preservation of them still in question due to the lack or the harm of linguistic policies as well, the hegemony of national languages that, in order to establish a more standardised national linguistic paradigm pushes the minority/native language into a state of emergency in its preservation. In the age of information and globalisation, different media has been utilised in order to promote the preservation of endangered languages, among them, publications in different areas like science, humanities and literature. Besides that, music has been also playing an important part in this terms due to its popularity and its social impact. In this paper will be focused in the commercial/pop culture music and its musical, linguistic and social implications since most of this musical expression are evidently considered as alien to the musical tradition in each case and paradoxically at the same time promoting the preservation of an endangered native language since this last one is considered a fundamental part of the traditional identity of each society. Keywords: Endangered Languages, Native languages, Languages national policies, Language preservation; Rap/Hip-hop Music; Globalization, Americas, Asia, Europe, Africa Introduction In the early decades of the 21st century, it is reported that, among the sum of the languages in the world 6.909, the number of endangered languages almost 3000 of them are considered endangered. -

James Skrivanek III v. State of Maryland, No. 146, September Term, 1998. [Criminal Procedure - Prosecutor, in order to avoid complete dismissal of case for insufficient evidence, agreed to trial court's suggestion that case be submitted to jury on uncharged, lesser included offense. Held: Case properly submitted despite prosecutor's unsuccessful insistence that charged offense had been proved.] Court for Cecil County Case Criminal # 97790C IN THE COURT OF APPEALS OF MARYLAND No. 146 September Term, 1998 _________________________________________ JAMES SKRIVANEK III v. STATE OF MARYLAND _________________________________________ Bell, C.J. Eldridge Rodowsky *Chasanow Raker Wilner Cathell, JJ. _________________________________________ Opinion by Rodowsky, J. _________________________________________ Filed: October 12, 1999 *Chasanow, J., now retired, participated in the hearing of this case and conferencing while an active member of this Court, but did not participate in the decision and adoption of this opinion. This is an appeal from a drug conviction. The appellant contends that the trial court erred by submitting the case to the jury on lesser included, but not expressly charged, attempt offenses. The appellant also argues that the police violated due process by the manner in which they conducted the reverse sting operation leading to the appellant's arrest and that the court improperly admitted evidence of other crimes. For the reasons set forth below, we shall affirm. Corporal Robert Shelley (Shelley) of the Maryland State Police was working in an undercover capacity with the Cecil County Narcotics Taskforce on August 17, 1997. At that time, Shelley told confidential informants to give prospective buyers of marijuana his pager number so that he could be contacted to conduct a controlled sale of the drugs. -

Citizen Judges in Japan: a Report Card for the Initial Three Years
CITIZEN JUDGES IN JAPAN: A REPORT CARD FOR THE INITIAL THREE YEARS Hon. Antoinette Plogstedt* I. INTRODUCTION Previous literature is critical of the European features of the Japanese jury system, including the joint deliberation by judges and citizens on juries, majority voting, non-waiver of jury trial by the defense, as well as juror confidentiality requirements. This Article presents contrary arguments that the Japanese should maintain the current features of their system and expand the jury system to cover even more criminal offenses, to eventually covering civil cases. The offered recommendations include eliminating prosecutor appeals to maintain legitimacy of the jury system and promulgating procedural rules requiring that lay jurors deliberate and vote separately from the professional judges. During the past twelve years as an Orange County Judge in Orlando, Florida, I had the privilege of presiding over many criminal jury trials. I prosecuted state crimes early in my legal career. Recently, I observed the public's reaction to one of the highly publicized jury trials to take place inside the courthouse where I presided. In the case of Florida v. Case Anthony,' the extensive international media coverage furthered the public's interest in our local state jury system. When the verdict was published, groups and individuals expressed their adamant pleasure or displeasure with the verdict. As it typically occurs with intense media coverage of trials, citizens begin to take a closer look at the role of juries. Those who agreed with the verdict praised the modem US jury system. Those who disagreed with the verdict discredited the jury. During my years of judicial service, I also had unique opportunities to meet with foreign judges from Brazil and South Korea. -

DENHAM R= ARMANDO RODRIGUEZ D: Today is April 14, 2008 and I am here once again with Armando Rodriguez. We are here to continue our oral history today. Good morning Armando. R: Good morning Mike, welcome to our home. D: We left off last time with your work in Matanzas at the sugar mill. Now we are about to move into another phase of your life. Can you tell us about the transition of leaving Matanzas to going to Havana? What was that like? R: This change was very good for my life and it was a great blessing, because I changed not only from the rural area to the big city of Havana, but in my life I had a lot of new opportunities there. And I am sure that God was preparing me for the ministry. D: What year did you leave to go to Havana to work in the new offices? R: This was in 1952. And then, when I was in the sugar mill in the rural area, I learned a lot, especially in the human relationship. I learned a lot from the workers in the company. I learned a lot from the land owners in the sugar mill. But, when I moved to Havana I was living in the home for evangelical university students in Havana, near the University Church in El Verdado. The pastor was a great servant of God, Reverend Ernesto Vasseur, and he helped me a lot in my spiritual life. -
