How Do I...Use resources?
This example demonstrates how to use resource files, dynamically loading a particular resource based on a selected culture. Resources allow you to develop robust, culture-aware programs without having to recompile your application because the resources have changed. The code required to access elements of a resource is based on the use of the ResourceManager object, and requires knowledge of the names of the elements within the resource. In this demonstration, the resources are presumed to already exist. Note that although Japanese is included in this demonstration, your console application must be setup appropriately to use Japanese resources.

    Learning About Other Cultures
    This newsgroup is not the place to learn about other cultures. However, there are MANY different newsgroups where you can learn about specific cultures and specific areas of the world. The best place to look is in the soc.* hierarchy, among all of the soc.culture.* newsgroups. In these newsgroups, you can ask about cities, languages, history, cultural traditions, and the like. In many cases, these newsgroups will have discussions in two or three different languages. The following is an *incomplete* list of the available soc.culture.* newsgroups. This is only a small portion. If you want to see if there is a newsgroup for a culture not listed here, please ask the people in ( news:news.groups.questions ) news.groups.questions for pointers to newsgroups and mailing lists about a specific culture.

    Culture and Christianity
    Missionaries brought Christianity to the canefields and converted the majority of Islanders. Today Christianity is still an important part of many Islander communities. Hal's story illustrates the way religion permeates the life of many Australian South Sea Islanders. Again, this story is based on a specific event and does not categorise the cultural patterns of all Australian South Sea Islanders.
    Hal's story
    My brother-in-law's daughter died up at the hospital. All the family was there except for a sister and an uncle. The nurses were about to move the body but we couldn't let her be moved until the whole family had arrived. We had to ask the nurses if they would let the body stay there until the sister and uncle arrived. The nurses looked confused but they let the body stay in the room. After a few hours the sister and uncle arrived and gathered around the body.

    http://www.ipa.org.au/Media/rbcm170499.html
    A Preamble for all People? Let's Forget It Ron Brunton, Courier Mail , 17 April 1999
    Ever wondered what sort of prose might be produced by a gifted poet working through a committee? It would probably be an melange of worthy flashes combined with some mush. Rather like the John Howard-Les Murray-Federal Cabinet draft preamble for our Constitution. With the best will in the world, it is hard to get excited about the words that the Government has placed before us. But many of those who are most vocal in denouncing the preamble penned by Howard and his mates have nothing but ill will towards the authors. These people would have disparaged even a Howard-Murray preamble which identified Aborigines as the continuing owners of the whole continent, and which addressed most other enthusiasms of the ABC, the Australian Democrats and the other self-appointed moral giants of our nation. They hate Howard because they see him as a dull, suburban conservative. And they are jealous of Murray because his ability has brought him international recognition without his having to pander to the 'prejudice or fashion or ideology' which the artistic set has long 'invoked against [his] achievement'-to use the phrases of the draft preamble. Surprisingly perhaps, given his often garrulous ways, Labor's effort from former deputy leader Gareth Evans is considerably better. Gareth described the language of his own preamble as 'short and taut, rhythmic and quotable, flowing naturally and easy to say'. While modesty has never been one of Gareth's virtues, on this occasion his self-praise has some justification.

    PART ONE
    THE FIGHT FOR AUSTRALIAN CULTURE
    Why entitle this publication "The Fight for Australian Culture"? After all, culture is hardly a matter for "fighting" - surely it is more a matter of "creating"?. However - in the Australian context - this is not the case. Nationalists are fighting for a "new people", the Australian People of which both "Old" and "New" Australians are each clusters of the overall Australian people. Each people is compelled to express its own individuality; in order to break free of old cultural moulds. If it does not, then it retains its state of psychological dependence on other cultures - and therefore fails to realise its own potential. In this respect, "culture" is a matter, not only for fighting words, but for fighting deeds.
    CULTURE IS POLITICS
    "front" did at least influence many people to actually begin to think about Australian culture. This movement (or more particularly, the "front" designed for public consumption) struck a chord in a nation dominated by foreign "investment", foreign alliances, and foreign ideologies. Indeed, all throughout our national life, culture has been a political question - and we must face this question squarely.

    Moderator: C. KOSSEN
    RATIONALE:
    Culture and language are integrally related and interdependent. Within the Australian cultural context language is involved in a mutually interactive and affective relationship with socio-cultural norms, values and practices. In order to function effectively within the parameters of the English language environment it is essential that individuals develop an awareness of both the formal requirements of language and the underlying socio-cultural forces which determine its use and interpretation.
    SYNOPSIS:
    This course increases knowledge of the English language in both spoken and written forms through an in-depth examination of the interactive relationship between language and the Australian socio-cultural environment.
    OBJECTIVES:
    On successful completion of the unit students will have:
  • increased knowledge and understanding of the English language
  • developed an awareness of the cultural and social dimensions
    of language
  • developed the capacity to analyse the impact of context on
    language usage.
