  • The Discursive Construction of Cultural Diversity by the Flag Consideration Panel
    Flagging diversity: The discursive construction of cultural diversity by the Flag Consideration Panel Taylor Annabell, Auckland University of Technology, [email protected] Angelique Nairn, Auckland University of Technology, [email protected] Abstract The Flag Consideration Project invited New Zealanders to change the New Zealand flag, and in doing so provided an opportunity for public discussion about what it means to belong to a nation. This article examines the contemporary conceptualisations of New Zealand offered in the 5 Alternatives text that accompanied the first flag consideration referendum. Given the increasing levels of cultural diversity and the historical difficulty faced in ensuring that multiple cultures contribute to the construction of New Zealand, the analysis focuses on constructions of cultural diversity. We used Fairclough’s critical discourse analysis to consider ideologies of nationhood prevalent in the text; in particular, we were interested in insights pertaining to bicultural and multicultural constructions of New Zealand. As it happens, the attempts made by the Flag Participation Panel to construct cultural diversity through asserting that New Zealand is inclusive and multicultural, and by referring to Māori culture as well as Chinese. On a surface level, it appears that the constructions address the limitations attached to the current flag, and specifically its Pākehā symbolism. However, the language used by the Panel indicates a continued reliance on a Pākehā perspective of New Zealand and the positioning of Māori as outside the mainstream. Therefore, although the text may have attempted to emphasise commonality and unity regardless of cultural affiliations, it inevitably tokenises cultural difference and offers a seemingly shallow notion of New Zealand as inclusive.

    News from the AMERICAN HOCKEY COACHES ASSOCIATION For immediate release: Thursday, March 22, 2018 Blaise MacDonald Wins Edward Jeremiah Award Winner As 2017-18 AHCA Division II-III Men’s Coach of the Year For leading Colby College into the NCAA Division III Men’s Ice Hockley Champion- ships, Blaise MacDonald has been named winner of the Edward Jeremiah Award as the CCM/AHCA Division III Men’s Coach of the Year. The Mules will meet St. Norbert College in the NCAA Semifinals at Herb Brooks Arena in Lake Placid, NY, on Friday night at 6:30 p.m. Colby enters Friday’s contest on a nine-game unbeaten streak (7-0-2) and brings a 17-10-2 overall record to the event. That streak followed a 10-10-0 start that accounted for Colby’s fifth place regular season finish in the NESCAC. But the post-season has been anything but average. The Mules swept through the NESCAC Tournament, outscoring three opponents by 14-3, in leading Colby to its first NESCAC championship. To reach the NCAA semifinals, Colby defeated the University of New England, 4-2, and Geneseo State, 2-1, the latter with a GWG at 19:58 of the third period. Since the unbeaten streak began on February 10, Colby has only allowed 11 goals in those nine games (1.22 GAA.) MacDonald is the former head coach of Niagara University and UMass Lowell. He was the founding coach of Niagara’s varsity hockey program, leading the Purple Eagles into Division I hockey in their third year.

  • The Ten Most Asked Questions About the New Zealand Flag
    THE TEN MOST ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT THE NEW ZEALAND FLAG REFERENDUM PROCESS Palmerston North Rotary Club November 2nd 2015 Malcolm Mulholland Massey University New Zealand Flag Consideration Panel Member Tēnā koutou katoa. Many thanks for inviting me here today to address you regarding the New Zealand Flag Referendum Process. As a member of the panel it is our job to be neutral, not to promote any particular design, and to provide information where and when required and as such I welcome this opportunity to address you here today. As we embark upon the first referendum to rank the five alternative designs, I think it is important to address the ten most commonly asked questions in the hope of dispelling some of the myths so that people can make an informed and educated decision for the two referendums. 1. Are you worried about the level of feeling in the debate? No. In fact I’ve been encouraged by the amount of passionate responses. Why? Because it shows me that we care deeply about what is arguably our most prominent symbol of nationhood. Whether we stay with what we have or we decide upon a new ensign, it is vitally important that we get it right and that above all else that we have an emotional connection to our flag. We need to remember that the purpose of a flag is to incite a strong sense of patriotism. A flag that fulfils its purpose needs to summon every ounce of pride your being can feel. Call it making the hairs on the back of your neck stand on end, your heart beating twelve to the dozen, or not being able to swallow without detecting your Adam’s apple, this is the very purpose of a flag.

It is the first such award for Ellsworth and the seventh time a Norwich coach has been so honored.

Norwich has a remarkable 33-1-4 record over the last two seasons after January 1. Overall, Norwich broke nine individual and team NCAA Division III all-time records during the 2019-20 season. Individually, senior goalie Tom Aubrun set new all-time records for consecutive shutouts (9), shutout minutes (572:31) and most shutouts in a single season (13). He also set new all-time career records for save percentage (.946) and goals against average (1.27). As a team, Norwich set the record for team shutouts (14), lowest team goals against average (.86) while also sharing the shutout streaks with Aubrun. The Cadets had three players recognized as first team NEHC All-Conference and one as Third team. Aubrun was named Goalie of the Year and Player of the Year for the second straight year.
