Book excerpt: HOW A LITTLE DOG CHANGED THE WORLD The true story of one little dog who helped bring an end to puppy farming in the UK. Lucy, a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, was born into a Welsh puppy farm in 2008. She was repeatedly bred to produce litters of cute puppies, who were taken from her shortly after birth to be sold online and transported many miles across the UK. Life on a puppy farm is grim, and the dogs aren't vaccinated, loved orlooked after. Lucy was rescued in 2013 and was in a terrible way - her spine was fused, she was covered in scalds and burns, blind in one eye, had crippling arthritis, separation anxiety, and was badly underweight. Her life turned around when she was chosen for adoption and rehabilitated by Lisa Garner, dog-lover extraordinaire. Lisa had shared her life with many dogs beforehand, but she recognised something extra special about little Lucy, and so their unique journey together began which would eventually change the world... The author is a regular guest on shows including BBC Breakfast, ITV's This Morning, and Sky News. Marc frequently writes articles raising awareness for animal welfare and is at the forefront of worldwide campaigns. Lucy's Law comes into effect on 6 April 2020, revolutionising the UK's approach to animal rights.

Download or read book Waves of Resistance written by Isaiah Helekunihi Walker and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2011-03-02 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surfing has been a significant sport and cultural practice in Hawai‘i for more than 1,500 years. In the last century, facing increased marginalization on land, many Native Hawaiians have found refuge, autonomy, and identity in the waves. In Waves of Resistance Isaiah Walker argues that throughout the twentieth century Hawaiian surfers have successfully resisted colonial encroachment in the po‘ina nalu (surf zone). The struggle against foreign domination of the waves goes back to the early 1900s, shortly after the overthrow of the Hawaiian kingdom, when proponents of this political seizure helped establish the Outrigger Canoe Club—a haoles (whites)-only surfing organization in Waikiki. A group of Hawaiian surfers, led by Duke Kahanamoku, united under Hui Nalu to compete openly against their Outrigger rivals and established their authority in the surf. Drawing from Hawaiian language newspapers and oral history interviews, Walker’s history of the struggle for the po‘ina nalu revises previous surf history accounts and unveils the relationship between surfing and colonialism in Hawai‘i. This work begins with a brief look at surfing in ancient Hawai‘i before moving on to chapters detailing Hui Nalu and other Waikiki surfers of the early twentieth century (including Prince Jonah Kuhio), the 1960s radical antidevelopment group Save Our Surf, professional Hawaiian surfers like Eddie Aikau, whose success helped inspire a newfound pride in Hawaiian cultural identity, and finally the North Shore’s Hui O He‘e Nalu, formed in 1976 in response to the burgeoning professional surfing industry that threatened to exclude local surfers from their own beaches. Walker also examines how Hawaiian surfers have been empowered by their defiance of haole ideas of how Hawaiian males should behave. For example, Hui Nalu surfers successfully combated annexationists, married white women, ran lucrative businesses, and dictated what non-Hawaiians could and could not do in their surf—even as the popular, tourist-driven media portrayed Hawaiian men as harmless and effeminate. Decades later, the media were labeling Hawaiian surfers as violent extremists who terrorized haole surfers on the North Shore. Yet Hawaiians contested, rewrote, or creatively negotiated with these stereotypes in the waves. The po‘ina nalu became a place where resistance proved historically meaningful and where colonial hierarchies and categories could be transposed. 25 illus.

Download or read book Leroy Grannis written by LeRoy Grannis and published by Taschen America Llc. This book was released on 2007 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La vague parfaite sous l'œil de la caméra. Le surf connut ses premières heures de gloire continentale dans les années 1950, sur la côte californienne, où il se mua rapidement en un véritable " style de vie " avant d'être admiré puis exporté aux quatre coins du globe. Le photographe sportif LeRoy Grannis fut l'un des principaux témoins et acteurs de cette génération : surfeur depuis 1931, il commença à fixer sur la pellicule le quotidien des surfeurs californiens et hawaïens au début des années 1960. Cette impressionnante collection de photos tirées des archives personnelles de l'auteur nous dévoile toute une palette d'impressions et de souvenirs de ces petits ou grands événements qui ont écrit l'histoire du surf, depuis les premiers ballets élégants des longboarders de San Onofre jusqu'aux prouesses des casse-cou d'Oahu, sur la côte nord d'Hawaï. Tout aussi remarquables sont ses précieux témoignages iconographiques sur la naissance d'un style de vie propre au surf - ici, un stomp improvisé en marge d'une compétition, là un pick-up Chevy bondé de planches sur la Pacific Coast Highway -, incarnations de l'esprit de liberté de cette époque dorée qui s'est achevée avec la révolution du shortboard et la mainmise du vedettariat sur une discipline jusque-là réservée à un cercle de gentlemen.

Download or read book The Last of the Golden Years in Surfing written by Francine Park Palama and published by . This book was released on 2017-05-22 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Last of the Golden Years in Surfing, legendary surfer Conrad Louis Canha, father and founder of the Hot-Dog style of surfing, shares his experiences and adventures that would forever change the culture of surfing and revolutionized its style. The son of a Portuguese descendant from Madeira who was a machine mechanic on the plantation, Conrad became an ambitious and determined surfer. His style of surfing continues to inspire more than 20-million surfing enthusiasts with his zig-zag, cut backs and tube rides. Conrad tells these stories, written in English with Pidgin scattered throughout (Pidgin is the language of the plantations, still spoken in 21st century Hawaii). He describes his real-life experiences from living on the Puunene sugar plantation on Maui to learning the Hawaiian sport of Kings, surfing, and becoming one of the few people in the world to become an International Surfing Champion. From sailing for the first time from Hawaii to California, and competitive canoe paddles to a teamster driver, Conrad met many of Hollywood's finest - from Walt Disney to Tom Selleck. He worked on the movie set of the original Hawaii Five-0 with Jack Lord, James MacArthur and Kam Fong. During this time, he would also meet Robert Conrad and Connie Stevens of Hawaiian Eye while working on the set of the original Jurassic Park. His stories are mixed with different emotions but would not be complete without sharing the love Conrad had for the three dogs that played such a major part in his life's journey. As the author, Fran Palama (herself a surfing champion), introduces each story, she weaves the history of the era and the reality of the times into stories that can stand on their own even as they are deeply connected to the stories of Conrad's life.Duke Kahanamoku once wrote that the best surfer out there is the one having the most fun. Kimo Hollinger, big-wave rider and author of many surfing articles wrote that whenever and wherever Conrad goes, you have got to know that everyone there is having a good time. The Last of the Golden Years in Surfing is a must have for every surfing enthusiast from keiki (child) to kupuna (elders) to add to their collection. It is an easy read, full of nostalgic photos and stories of life in Hawaii from the 1930s and 1940s and wild surfing experiences of the 1950s and 1960s.
