Tribal Weaving of the Lesser Sunda Islands
TRIBAL WEAVING OF THE LESSER SUNDA ISLANDS The diverse Lesser Sunda Islands, stretching eastwards from Bali, offer the most amazing landscapes and a glorious cornucopia of weaving for textile lovers. Here women not only continue to make their traditional cloth on back-tension looms but continue to wear it as well. There is kaleidoscopic variety of patterns and designs – every region of every island has its own unique textile culture, its own style of dress, and its own motifs. Together we will explore the extraordinary ancestral traditions of these islands where textiles are the predominant form of artistic expression, still playing a central role in every significant stage of life, especially marriage and death. Some islanders tell us, “Without cloth we cannot marry.” However, change is underway series of evening talks.

Birds of Gunung Tambora, Sumbawa, Indonesia: Effects of Altitude, the 1815 Cataclysmic Volcanic Eruption and Trade
FORKTAIL 18 (2002): 49–61 Birds of Gunung Tambora, Sumbawa, Indonesia: effects of altitude, the 1815 cataclysmic volcanic eruption and trade COLIN R. TRAINOR In June-July 2000, a 10-day avifaunal survey on Gunung Tambora (2,850 m, site of the greatest volcanic eruption in recorded history), revealed an extraordinary mountain with a rather ordinary Sumbawan avifauna: low in total species number, with all species except two oriental montane specialists (Sunda Bush Warbler Cettia vulcania and Lesser Shortwing Brachypteryx leucophrys) occurring widely elsewhere on Sumbawa. Only 11 of 19 restricted-range bird species known for Sumbawa were recorded, with several exceptional absences speculated to result from the eruption. These included: Flores Green Pigeon Treron floris, Russet-capped Tesia Tesia everetti, Bare-throated Whistler Pachycephala nudigula, Flame-breasted Sunbird Nectarinia solaris, Yellow-browed White- eye Lophozosterops superciliaris and Scaly-crowned Honeyeater Lichmera lombokia. All 11 resticted- range species occurred at 1,200-1,600 m, and ten were found above 1,600 m, highlighting the conservation significance of hill and montane habitat. Populations of the Yellow-crested Cockatoo Cacatua sulphurea, Hill Myna Gracula religiosa, Chestnut-backed Thrush Zoothera dohertyi and Chestnut-capped Thrush Zoothera interpres have been greatly reduced by bird trade and hunting in the Tambora Important Bird Area, as has occurred through much of Nusa Tenggara. ‘in its fury, the eruption spared, of the inhabitants, not a although in other places some vegetation had re- single person, of the fauna, not a worm, of the flora, not a established (Vetter 1820 quoted in de Jong Boers 1995). blade of grass’ Francis (1831) in de Jong Boers (1995), Nine years after the eruption the former kingdoms of referring to the 1815 Tambora eruption. -
Your Baby Has Hemoglobin E Or Hemoglobin O Trait for Parents
NEW HAMPSHIRE NEWBORN SCREENING PROGRAM Your Baby Has Hemoglobin E or Hemoglobin O Trait For Parents All infants born in New Hampshire are screened for a panel of conditions at birth. A small amount of blood was collected from your baby’s heel and sent to the laboratory for testing. One of the tests looked at the hemoglobin in your baby’s blood. Your baby’s test found that your baby has either hemoglobin E trait or hemoglobin O trait. The newborn screen- ing test cannot tell the difference between hemoglobin E and hemoglobin O so we do not know which one your baby has. Both hemoglobin E trait and hemoglobin O trait are common and do not cause health problems. Hemoglobin E trait and hemoglobin O trait will never develop to disease. What is hemoglobin? Hemoglobin is the part of the blood that carries oxygen to all parts of the body. There are different types of hemoglobin. The type of hemoglobin we have is determined from genes that we inherit from our parents. Genes are the instructions for how our body develops and functions. We have two copies of each gene; one copy is inherited from our mother in the egg and one copy is inherited from our father in the sperm. What are hemoglobin E trait and hemoglobin O trait? The normal, and most common, type of hemoglobin is called hemoglobin A. Hemoglobin E trait is when a baby inherited one gene for hemoglobin A from one parent and one gene for hemoglobin E from the other parent. -
Hemoglobin C Harlem Or Hemoglobin O Arab Trait- for Physicians
New Hampshire Newborn Screening Program Hemoglobin C harlem or hemoglobin O arab Trait- For Physicians As part of routine newborn screening all babies are tested for sickle cell disease and other hemoglobinopathies. Screening of all specimens is done by isoelectric focusing (IEF). Results are then confirmed by IEF and citrate agar electrophoresis. Your patient has tested positive for hemoglobin C harlem trait or hemoglobin O arab trait. Our testing methods are unable to distinguish between hemoglobin C harlem, hemoglobin O arab and other variants that migrate in the same region. Although there is no immediate clinical significance, this information is important for future reproductive decisions of the child and other family members. Possible Newborn Screening Results: Hemoglobin F Fetal hemoglobin, present in declining amounts until 6 months after birth A Normal adult hemoglobin B Hemoglobin Bart’s H Hemoglobin C Harlem or Hemoglobin O arab FA: Normal newborn hemoglobin pattern FAH: Hemoglobin C Harlem trait OR hemoglobin O arab trait FACB: Hemoglobin C trait with Hemoglobin Bart’s (see separate Hemoglobin Bart’s information sheet) Follow Up Recommendations: Newborn screening cannot make a distinction between Hemoglobin C Harlem and O arab. The baby should have a CBC and hemoglobin electrophoresis to verify the NBS results and to help distinguish between hemoglobin C harlem trait and hemoglobin O arab trait. The testing can be performed anytime after fetal hemoglobin levels normalize, which occurs at approximately 6 months of age. The family should be offered genetic counseling for parental testing to assess the risk to future pregnancies and to discuss the inheritance of Hemoglobin C. -
