1. HAWAIIAN PARTY! for the First Time Ever Junten STARS Put on a Hawaiian Party on July 23 After the Closing Ceremony JUNTEN NEWS 1. HAWAIIAN PARTY! For the first time ever Junten STARS put on a Hawaiian Party on July 23 after the Closing Ceremony. In previous years we held a Tanabata Party, however, STARS being the international organization that it is decided a Hawaiian Party would be far more of an international event. Junten students were met with an Aloha greeting as soon as they entered the ELC. Aloha greetings with a beautiful Hawaiian scene welcomed the students with exotic decorations of Hibiscus flowers, Leis hanging from the ceiling, and mysterious Tiki images adorning the walls. Accompanying this tropical atmosphere was ukulele music blasting from the loudspeakers. We were almost in the real Waikiki! The first activity of the day was a Hula Dancing Competition. The party members first watched a video of a real Hawaiian Hula Dance. Then they studied and practiced the dance movements before the competition was held. Dance teams of 2 or 3 students then performed the Hula Dance. Their team names were very Hawaiian! We had the Coconuts, the Pineapples, the Mangoes and the Aloha Team. During their performance a panel of judges judged the participants on three points; their arm and hand movements, their footstep movements, and the smiles upon their faces. In the end, the best female and male dancer were choosen by the judges along with the best team. This year's champions were the Mangoes (3 girls from E-Class). Congratulations Girls! Our next activity was Tiki Exploring. For some of you who are not aware of Tiki culture please let me explain. Tiki is a wooden or stone carving in humanoid form. These carvings represent deified ancesters (a god or goddess) and are found in most Polynesian cultures including Hawaiian culture. Anyway, little paper Tikis were hidden all over building 3. Students went Tiki exploring to find the hidden Gods that were scattered around the building. The larger Tikis were worth 20 points and the smaller Tikis 10 points. The top three students with the most points could receive Hawaiian gifts of pineapple waffles. After all these activities the students were famished and had huge Hawaiian appetites. So all the party goers proceeded to building 2 for Hawaiian cooking and tasting for our last activity. As with Okinawan culture Spam is a popular dish. Spam is a tinned meat product made mainly from ham. The spam was fryed with various spices, such as, basil, blackpepper and cinnamon. Along with this real Hawaiian pancakes were made from real taro pancake batter from Hawaii. Instead of using the usual maple syrup from Canada, we used coconut syrup imported from Hawaii. How delicious they were!!! Yummy, yummy!!! All the partygoers were left with full stomachs and were greatly satisfied. The STARS members are already brainstorming for more ideas for next year's Hawaiian Party. Possible ideas could be a Virtual Surfing Contest, a Pineapple Bowling Contest and don't forget the Hawaiian Quiz for 2017. So study up on your Hawaiian facts and remember to bring your Aloha spirit to next year's party! ALOHA .

    Cheers to the nature of Tiki Cheers to Tiki spirits The Tiki trend started in the 20th century as a result of Polynesian-styled restaurants and bars booming in the United States, which soon spread all over the world. Great examples in the cocktail industry were: Don the Beachcomber and Trader Vic’s, which still inspire us today. Historically, Tiki was the first man on earth created by the gods in Māori mythology which is a great part of the Polynesian culture. Polynesian culture is closely linked to nature, in particular the Pacific. The Polynesians were renowned for their seafaring and navigation skills and explored a large part of the islands in the Pacific Ocean. A lot of the ancient Hawaiian gods looked like natural occurrences, due to their strong connection with nature. For them, this explained that also the flowing of lava from volcanoes was part of the Earth’s creation. They had great respect for nature and all living creatures, unfortunately the later generations were less respectful. Since those ancient times a lot has changed and in the last decades we gained our respect for nature and the Earth’s well-being back.

Its I humor comes from the particularities of Filipino rearticulation of Shakespeare’s famous question (the joke also resonates among Carolin- ian speakers from Micronesia, and perhaps among many other Austronesian-based Pacific Island language speakers), but I also want to suggest that its stronger force likewise comes from a kind of lightness of being that self-mockery can make of ontological fundamentalism. Self-mockery is a serious weapon of cultural resilience and resis- tance—and as someone waiting in line, somewhat impatiently, I want to re-aim the line of “P’s” trajectory in the direction of another culturally and historically specific mode of becoming. The converted question, “To P or not to P?” becomes, then, my way of marking the present territory, a slippery, even sticky sea of historical, political, and cultural determina- tions that exists between Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders in a more turbulent ocean of United States imperialism and colonialism. Choppy too, of course, is the no less innocent world of institutionalized study of these struggles, no matter how noble the motives may be. In this essay, I want to address the tensions raised by the “P Ques- tion” in relation to Asian American Studies from the vantage point of one who has been located in Pacific Studies as viewed from the Islands, par- ticularly from Guam in Micronesia, where I was born and raised, and where I taught in the 1990s.

  • A Careful Embrace Race, Gender, and the Consumption of Hawaiʻi and the South Pacific in Mid-Century Los Angeles
    CHAPTER 18 A Careful Embrace Race, Gender, and the Consumption of Hawaiʻi and the South Pacific in Mid-Century Los Angeles Shawn Schwaller Abstract This chapter examines interconnections between race, gender, and global politics in mid-century metropolitan Los Angeles’s Hawaiian and South Pacific-themed restau- rants and cocktail lounges. After opening for business in the early 1930s, Don the Beachcomber in Hollywood was the first establishment to bring a real and imagined Hawaiʻi and South Pacific into mainland American food and drink culture. This chapter argues that gendered and racialized fantasies of the South Pacific played a key role in the popularity of these establishments. They allowed patrons to experience an exotic, yet safe and predictable Hawaiʻi and South Pacific within the continental United States during World War II. Chinese, Filipino Americans and Polynesians contributed to the creation and success of these establishments as chefs, bartenders, and musicians. However, racialized and sexualized stereotypes of Chinese and Filipino American ser- vility and Polynesian hypersexuality overshadowed this influence. Keywords Hawaiʻi – South Pacific – Los Angeles – food and drink culture – white heterosexual masculinity – Asian American history – business – labor – architecture and interior design “If you can’t get to paradise, I’ll bring it to you,” claimed Donn Beach, owner and operator of the first South Pacific-themed restaurant and cocktail lounge in the mainland United States.1 Beach opened his establishment, Don the Beachcomber, in 1930s Hollywood, igniting a trend that came to be known as 1 Jod Kaftan, “Drink in Paradise,” Los Angeles Times Magazine, February 2010, http://www .latimesmagazine.com/2010/02/drink-in-paradise.html (accessed July 24, 2014).

    TIKI KON: FANTASY ISLAND JULY 13-14, 2018 RED LION ON THE RIVER PORTLAND, OR Sponsorship Kit Photos ©2017 Kamala Kingsley Celebrating Our Tiki Heritage Tiki Kon is a weekend celebration of exotic tropical destinations and the Tiki bars, cocktails, art, music and fashions they inspire. Now in its 15th year, Tiki Kon gets its inspiration from the highly-stylized Polynesian-themed restaurants and lounges that exploded in popularity in the decades after WWII. Those Tiki temples were a uniquely American creation, fueled by the stories and souvenirs brought back by the brave men and women serving in the Pacific Theater, and they were the heart of a pop culture phenomenon that lasted nearly 30 years. The bars were a dark and mysterious escape from everyday life, their decor was reminiscent of the South Pacific, drinks were strong and well crafted, fashions were bright and colorful, and the music was exotic. It was the golden age of the Tiki bar. Though that glory had mostly faded by the 1970s and 80s, a resurgence of interest in Tiki bars and fine craft cocktails is again making its mark on American pop culture. A new generation has taken up the Tiki torch, new themed bars and restaurants are opening all the time, and weekend events like Tiki Kon are selling out across the country. Tiki Kon started in 2002 as a small Sunday bar crawl, by a group of friends who wanted to show off and share the elaborate home Tiki bars they’d built in their basements and backyards. It now welcomes guests from the Pacific Northwest and across North America and has grown to become an exciting full-weekend gathering.

  • Trails of the Cocktail 5 14 18.Pdf
    Trails of the Cocktail Few cities can boast more historic significance in their cocktail culture than the Crescent City: birthplace of the Sazerac, Ramos Gin Fizz, the Grasshopper, the Hurricane, and (backed by one of the best apocryphal origin stories ever concocted) even the cocktail itself. In 1769 Spanish Colonial Governor of Louisiana Alejandro O‟Reilly issued a proclamation allowing one limonadier (lemonade seller), twelve taverns and six billiard halls to dispense alcoholic beverages. Closing time was ordained to be 8 pm, but bribes to the necessary officials extended the hours over the years. Rum came into the port of New Orleans and was taxed by the Spanish colonial government. Pat O‟s, Home of “The Hurricane” The “Hurricane”, the most popular drink at Pat O‟Brien‟s in the French Quarter, was created during World War II when liquor such as whiskey was in short supply. In order to purchase just one case of these preferred liquors, liquor salesmen compelled bar owners to purchase as many as 50 cases of rum, which was plentiful. In an effort to utilize the excess of rum, Pat O‟Brien's famous recipe emerged. The name came along soon after when a glass (shaped like a hurricane lamp chimney) was used to serve the popular rum cocktail. Don the Beachcomber (1907 — 1989), founding father of Tiki culture (Tiki bars, restaurants and nightclubs), enjoyed great popularity in the United States — mostly from the late 1940s through the mid-1960s. He and his friendly rival “Trader Vic” Bergeron are still remembered for their cultural influence.

  • Classic Recipe Training Manual
    Lowder’s Easy List of 178 (Modern) Classics to Know 2016 Foreword Thanks very much for taking the time to read through this recipe list. I took the time to write it because in doing cocktail trainings at different bars in different countries, I noticed that most junior and intermediate bartenders are sharing a common struggle. The struggle is that (1) writing a bar recipe and training manual takes forever (2) bar managers have too much on their plate to sit down and write a good one, and (3) there’s just too much disparate information out there for new bartenders to just put together this information on their own. At countless bars, restaurants, and hotels worldwide, the situation is this: People get hired at a bar and have to learn the menu recipes in order to work. Then, they have to learn a few core classic recipes that guests ask for regularly. Sometimes the bar provides a list of standard classic recipes, sometimes the bar doesn’t. The bartenders learn what they need to learn to make it through service, and that knowledge is usually enough to carry them through to the next menu cycle. Beyond that, additional education is pretty much up to them. But how to get educated? Well, there are a lot of options available. Books, blogs, classes, other bartenders, second bar jobs, seminars, apps, brand reps, and on and on. But where to start? And how much to learn? There are a lot of recipes out there. Which ones are actually good? Should I memorize a whole cocktail book? Write down the recipes I like into my notebook? Or keep it on my backbar to look at when I need to? Trying to memorize a cocktail book won’t make you a good bartender any more than trying to memorize a Spanish dictionary will make you fluent in Spanish.

  • ORGANIZING REPRESENTATIONS of HAWAII Jonathan E. Schroeder
    PACKAGING PARADISE: ORGANIZING REPRESENTATIONS OF HAWAII Jonathan E. Schroeder 1 Janet L. Borgerson 2 University of Exeter D R A F T Earlier version presented at Critical Management Studies conference Cambridge July 2005 University of Exeter Discussion Papers in Management Paper number 05/02 ISSN 1472-2939 1Professor of Marketing, School of Business and Economics, University of Exeter, Streatham Court, Rennes Drive, Exeter, EX4 4PU.

Email [email protected] Packaging Paradise: Organizing Representations of Hawaii Jonathan E. Schroeder Janet L. Borgerson University of Exeter 2 The Hawaiian Islands are of volcanic origin and are edged with coral reefs. Generally fertile with a mild climate, they are sometimes called “the paradise of the Pacific” because of their spectacular beauty: abundant sunshine; acres of green plants and gaily colored flowers; coral beaches with rolling white surf and fringed with palms; and, rising with sober majesty to solitary heights, cloud covered volcanic peaks. (Columbia Encyclopedia, 5th ed., s.v “Hawaii”) Hawaii was packaged for promotion and plunder. The objective of this paper is to focus attention on the image of Hawaii – a state, an ethnic identity, a race, and a cultural form – as a compelling example of how representation by dominant groups enables a colonialist process of objectification and imperialism. Representation often requires political, economic, and ideological choices made by those in power. We present a case study of how narratives and images were deftly combined and organized in the popular culture artifact, the Hawaiian record album, which encapsulates intersecting colonial interests.
