    Key words: tsunami, Caribbean, tsunami history, mitigation, natural hazards
    INTRODUCTION: Tsunamis are not the major natural hazard in the Caribbean but they have the potential to produce a major disaster which can be mitigated with proper preparation. This history has reports on 56 tsunamis affecting the Caribbean in historic times. These have affected 22 countries and administrative areas including northern South America and Central America; these are listed in Table 1 . The record for the last hundred years lists 20 tsunamis or about one every 5 years. It contains information about tsunamis from several types of sources. Source mechanisms include tsunamis from remote sources (teletsunamis), landslide tsunamis, volcanic tsunamis, and tectonic tsunamis associated with trenches and with transform faults. Figure 1 shows that the locations affected by tsunamis include nearly the whole of the Caribbean region. This history was compiled mostly from published sources available internationally. Additional events and effects would likely be found by searching locally available sources.

    CREDIT UNION HISTORY Our Co-operative Background
    How Co-operatives Were Born
    Financial Co-operatives Emerge A quest for economic survival
    The co-operative credit movement arose out of a specific set of historical circumstances. It was born in Europe out of the urgent goal of economic survival. Economic depression fueled by widespread crop failures and one of the harshest winters ever in the "hungry forties" led to the formation of all kinds of co-operatives. The first "people's bank" or credit union was organised by Hermann Schulze-Delitzsch of Germany in 1850. The idea was simple. People would pool their money and make loans to each other at reasonable interest rates. Since these people were all connected in some way (they all lived in one town or they all belonged to one church, etc.) they would be borrowing their own money and that of their friends. The basic principles were: Membership was open to anyone willing to accept the requirements.

    In the heart of the Caribbean

    The eight states of the Eastern Caribbean are Antigua and Barbuda, the British Virgin Islands, Dominica, Grenada, Montserrat, St. Kitts and Nevis, St. Lucia, and St. Vincent and the Grenadines.
    In 1981 these countries formed the Organisation of the Eastern Caribbean States (OECS) which aims to achieve economic and social development and to promote in the region.
    Fascinating History
    The Caribbean has a colourful history with a diversity of races and religions. Christopher Columbus came to the islands in 1493. After that most islands passed through the hands of the French and the Dutch until finally being colonised by the British. The area is one of the most cosmopolitan in the world . With a relaxed blend of cultures best portrayed in the art, music, literature and unique lifestyle of the region.
    Democratic Stability
    Six of the states are independent members of the British Commonwealth. The British Virgin Islands and Montserrat remain as British dependencies. The administration of the Eastern Caribbean is based on the British system with a strong background of peaceful, constitutional change, stability and security. The independent states are all members of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM), the Organisation of American States (OAS), the WTO, the United Nations, the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the World Bank and are members of the Lome Convention.
    Places to stay
    There is a choice from a wide range of accommodation - from internationally renowned hotels to moderately priced efficiency apartments, catering for everything from uniquely designed getaways to the increasingly popular all-inclusive packages.

We will start by dedicating two weeks to theoretical and conceptual discussions on race, ethnicity and the relationship between region and nation.  After this we will examine a few case studies drawn from the colonial perioda foundational period that will remain important throughout the entire course.  We will then examine race and ethnic patterns during the transitional years of the nineteenth century, especially through the lens of how different regions experienced their integration into the nation-state and the construction of new hierarchies.  Finally we will look at the twentieth century and consider to what extent the once-dominant regional patterns of race and ethnic relations become subsumed to national or state-based forces, and how ethnicity and race have come “back” since the 1980s as important aspects of the region’s history.

    Colleagues,
    I have mixed feelings as I stand before you today to address you as the new Prime Minister of Dominica. My joy at being here at the highest decision –making body of the Organization of Eastern Caribbean States – the OECS Authority – is tinged with deep sorrow.
    The Chinese philosophers of the Han Dynasty (about 200BC), in an attempt to reconcile the apparent contradictions of life, taught that Yin and Yang were one and the same, that is, two moments in the same cycle. Hence the answers of life were to be found in death, the keys to prosperity in poverty and the source of happiness in sorrow.
    We Dominicans have been forced to reflect on this wisdom in recent years.
