Cruise Critic Message Boards Cruise Lines "A - O" Carnival Cruise Lines PDA View Full Version : Just back from Legend mini review WhansaMi March 28th, 2005, 12:56 PM We returned from eight days on the Legend yesterday. I'll try to write a more comprehensive review later, but here are some initial thoughts. First of all, we had a wonderful time. Yes, there were a few glitches, but overall, I'd rate my time there a 9 out of 10! This was our second cruise; the first was on the Legend's sister ship, the Spirit, last summer. I liked that I was familiar with the layout, and felt "at home" from the beginning. I thought the ship was lovely. There were sections of it that reminded me of Caesar's Palace in Vegas but I like sparkly things! In an odd coincidence, we and our travelling companions (coming from opposite coasts) lost luggage on the planes. Carnival got all the luggage to us on the first sea day. Some highlights: The sloth sanctuary in Costa Rica. As a person particularly interested in natural history, I loved this tour. I opted out of the river boat section, and spent that time talking to the owners of the sanctuary. Very interesting. Embara Indian Village in Panama. Indigenous peoples who have accultuated very little to modern day society. Again, very informative.

Rural poverty is deepest in certain parts of the south and west. Some racial and ethnic groups are poorer than others. Poverty rates in the United States of America are higher for minorities than for non-hispanic whites. This pattern also applies in rural areas. More than a quarter of rural hispanics, blacks and indigenous Americans such as American Indians, Inuits and Aleuts live in poverty (US Department of Agriculture: US Census Bureau figures). Child poverty rates are also disproportionately high in rural areas. In 2002 one out of every five children living in rural areas was poor (US Department of Agriculture).

References History Starting in 1972, the Panamanian government was required to establish comarcas, demarcated regions in which indigenous groups possess exclusive land rights and considerable administrative autonomy. Within comarcas, people elect a General assembly, governor, and any number of regional and local leaders, although the government still controls public expenditure and tax revenues within the territory. The comarca Ngöbe-Buglé, located in north western Panama, was formed in 1997 both as a latent result of government promise and of considerable political pressure from the Ngäbe-Buglé, united by threats of natural resource exploitation and environmental degradation on their ancestral lands.

Though over 90% of the world's coral reefs are found in the Pacific, strong currents make them a rarity along the west coast of the Americas. Panama, however, has an east-west orientation, providing enough protection for coral to grow along its Pacific coast.

Kuna From NativeWiki Jump to: navigation search A Kuna woman wearing her Mola or dulemola stands next to a clothesline in Kuna Yala, Panama Kuna or Cuna is the name of an indigenous people of Panama and Colombia . The spelling Kuna is currently preferred. In the Kuna language , the name is Dule or Tule , meaning "people." The name of the language in Kuna is Dulegaya , meaning "people's language." The Kuna are often mistakenly identified as being related to the extinct Cundara people. They have some of the same traditions but have a totally different background. The Kuna live in three politically autonomous comarcas or reservations in Panama, and in a few small villages in Colombia. There are also communities of Kuna people in Panama City Colón , and other cities. The greatest number of Kuna people live on small islands in the comarca of Kuna Yala . The other two Kuna comarcas in Panama are Kuna de Madugandí and Kuna de Wargandí In Kuna Yala, each community has its own political organization, led by a Sahila (pronounced "sai-lah"). The Sahila is traditionally both the political and spiritual leader of the community; he memorizes songs which relate the sacred history of the people, and in turn transmits them to the people. Decisions are made in meetings held in the Onmaket Nega (Congress House or Casa de Congreso), a structure which likewise serves both political and spiritual purposes. It is in the Onmaket Nega that the Sahila sings the history, legends and laws of the Kuna, as well as administering the day-to-day political and social affairs. The Sahila is usually accompanied by one or more

Website design and programming TerraRhythm Media for Vibrant Change Working on the American Panama Canal Project, improving living conditions for the workers By the time the Americans took over the defunct French canal project, the word was out about the perilous working conditions and high employee mortality, making recruitment difficult. Appointed chief engineer in 1905, John F. Stevens recognized the problem as a major impediment to progress and immediately began improving living conditions for the workers. Return to Previous Page Better conditions for some but segregation remains Better worker housing was built, though workers were segregated by race and black employees given inferior housing to white workers. Sewer systems were installed. Especially-equipped refrigerated rail cars were imported that allowed food to last longer, and low cost meals were made available to the workers. Clubs were established for relaxing after the long work-day.

An Awakened Civil Society excerpted from the book When Corporations Rule the World by David C. Korten published by Kumarian Press, 1995 January 1, 1994, was the inaugural day of the North J American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), an agreement intended to complete the integration of the economies of Mexico, Canada, and the United States. Business leaders throughout North America welcomed the new opportunities for corporate expansion afforded by the merger. The indigenous peoples of Chiapas state in southeastern Mexico took a strikingly different view. They had for generations endured similar economic "advances," each time losing more of their lands and finding their livelihood opportunities ever more limited. Calling NAFTA a death sentence for the people of Chiapas, some 4,000 Indians launched an armed rebellion against the Mexican government. Mexican political analyst Gustavo Esteva has called the Chiapas rebellion the "first revolution of the twenty-first century." Whereas the revolutions of the twentieth century were contests for state power, the struggle of the Chiapas people was for greater local autonomy, economic justice, and political rights within the borders of their own communities. They did not call on their fellow Mexicans to take up arms against the state but rather to join them in a broad social movement calling for the liberation of local spaces from colonization by alien political and economic forces. Their battle cry-"Baste!" (Enough!)-was picked up by popular movements all across Mexico and resonated around the world.

Guaymí From NativeWiki Jump to: navigation search The Guaymí or Ngäbe are an indigenous group living mainly within the Ngöbe-Buglé comarca (or reserve) in the Western Panamanian provinces of Veraguas Chiriquí and Bocas del Toro . Guaymí is the traditional term for the Ngäbe and is derived from the Buglere term for them (guaymiri). Local newspapers and other print media usually misspell the name Ngäbe as Ngobe or Ngöbe because Spanish does not contain the sound represented by , a low-back rounded a , slightly higher than the English aw in the word saw and Spanish speakers hear as either an o or an a . The language spoken by the Ngäbe is Ngäbere. There are approximately 200,000-250,000 speakers of Ngäbere today. A sizable number of Ngäbe have migrated to Costa Rica in search of work on the coffee fincas. Ngäbere and Buglere are distinct languages in the Chibchan language family. They are mutually unintelligible. The Spanish found three distinct Guaymi tribes in what is today's western Panama ; each was named after its chief and each spoke a different language . The chiefs were Nata , in the Province of Cocle ,and Parita in the Azuero Peninsula and the greatest chief Urraca in what is now Veraguas Province.
