Jan de Beer stond op en sloeg met zijn vuist op de tafel. Het gedonder in de lege koffiekopjes was genoeg voor Tante Truus om nog een keer met de kan rond te gaan en voor de overige aanwezigen om hun kop te houden, want anders konden ze de volgende knal van Jan op hun achterhoofd verwachten. Jan was altijd kort en duidelijk: “Als ik mag kiezen tussen de bekerfinale spelen in de Kuip of een miljoenencontract bij een Arabische sjeik, dan kies ik de finale. En als we dat niet bereiken, dan zal ik in ieder geval zeker weten dat ik er alles aan gedaan heb. Ik stem voor Paulus Lovang als trainer en ik ga akkoord met de voorwaarden.” Reinier (de Luie) had als eerste zijn woordje klaar: “En als dat betekent dat je vanaf nu geen smulrollen meer mag eten, ga je je daar dan ook echt aan houden?” Jan de Beer moest er zelf ook om lachen: “Het zijn maar zeven wedstrijden, Reinier. Voor zeven wedstrijden doe en laat ik alles wat nodig is. We hebben niet vaak zo’n kans als komend seizoen en ik wil die kans te grijpen. Ik wil één keer in mijn leven in de Kuip spelen. Dat is altijd al mijn droom geweest.” Reinier had ook een droom: “Mijn droom hee...

Eo e ku'u lei mokupuni o na kai 'ewalu- I call to you, acknowledge O my lei islands of the eight seas. Located between 19 and 22 degrees north latitude, Hawai'i is the southernmost state in the United States and has the same general latitude as Hong Kong and Mexico City. It is situated almost in the center of the Pacific Ocean and is one of the most isolated yet populous places on Earth. The west coast of North America, for example, is 2,400 miles (3,900 kilometers) from Honolulu, and Japan is 3,800 miles (6,100 kilometers) away. Six time zones separate Hawai'i from the eastern United States. This means that 9:00 A.M. (eastern standard time) in Washington, D.C. and New York City is 6:00 a.m. in Los Angeles and 4:00 a.m. in Hawai'i....

Language is the fiber that binds us to our cultural identity. The UH Hilo College of Hawaiian Language, Ka Haka Ula O Keelikolani was established in 1997 by the Hawaii State Legislature to “serve as a focal point for the states efforts to revitalize the Hawaiian language through teacher training, undergraduate and graduate study of Hawaiian, community outreach, research and testing, use of technology, national and international cooperation, and the development of liberal education in Hawaiian for future generations of Hawaiian speakers. ” Named in honor of Ruth Keelikolani Keanolani Kanahoahoa, the 19th century high chiefess known for her strong advocacy of Hawaiian language and culture, the College models its operation primarily through an indigenous language. Building upon the vast repository of traditional knowledge passed down through generations, the College seeks to develop an academic curriculum emphasizing language acquisition, linguistics, traditional culture and education programs which are culturally responsive to the needs of the Hawaiian medium learning environment, and support a network of community outre...

I celebrate myself, And what I assume you shall assume, For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you.   I loafe and invite my soul, I lean and loafe at my ease . . . . observing a spear of summer grass.   Houses and rooms are full of perfumes . . . . the shelves are crowded with perfumes, I breathe the fragrance myself, and know it and like it, The distillation would intoxicate me also, but I shall not let it.   The atmosphere is not a perfume . . . . it has no taste of the distillation . . . . it is odorless, It is for my mouth forever . . . . I am in love with it, I will go to the bank by the wood and become undisguised and naked, I am mad for it to be in contact with me.   The smoke of my own breath, Echos, ripples, and buzzed whispers . . . . loveroot, silkthread, crotch and vine, My respiration and inspiration . . . . the beating of my heart . . . . the passing of blood and air through my lungs, “The sniff of green leaves and dry leaves, and of the shore and darkcolored sea-rocks, and of hay in the barn, The sound of the belched words of my voice . . . . words loosed to the eddies of the wind, A fe...
