Hawaii Invasive Species Council (HISC) Research and Technology Grant Program, Progress/Final Report Project Title: Identifying Sex Pheromone Components of the Nettle Caterpillar, Darna pallivitta (Moore), to Facilitate Detection and Pheromone Disruption Control Principal Investigators: Matthew S. Siderhurst1, Eric B. Jang1, Arnold H. Hara2, Patrick Conant3 1US Pacific Basin Agric. Res. Center, USDA-ARS, P.O. Box 4459, Hilo, HI 2Dept. Plant Environ. Protect. Sci., CTAHR, University of Hawaii at Manoa, 461 West Lanikaula Street, Hilo, HI 3 Hawaii Dept. Agric., 16 East Lanikaula St., Hilo, HI 1 Executive Summary: The nettle caterpillar, Darna pallivitta (Moore), is an invasive pest on the island of Hawai’i, causing defoliation of ornamental nursery stock and posing a human health hazard due to their painful sting. Wind tunnel and field tests with 2 day old moths revealed male behavioral responses to caged females consistent with a female released sex pheromone. Coupled gas chromatography-electroantennogram detection (GC-EAD) analysis of abdominal tip extracts revealed two male electroantennographically active compounds produced by female D. pallivitta. Mass spectral analysis and subsequent synthesis identified the active compounds as n- butyl (E)-7,9-decadienoate (major component) and ethyl (E)-7,9-decadienoate (minor component), both structurally similar to sex pheromone components previous reported from related Darna spp. Additionally, methyl (E)-7,9-decadienoate was identified from female abdominal extracts and a strong EAD response was elicited by the synthetic compound. n-Butyl (E)-7,9-decadienoate was the only component detected by solid phase microextraction (SPME) collections from single calling female moths, however the absence of the minor components may be a result of their lower abundance. -
Women in Filipino Religion-Themed Films
Review of Women’s Studies 20 (1-2): 33-65 WOMEN IN FILIPINO RELIGION-THEMED FILMS Erika Jean Cabanawan Abstract This study looks at four Filipino films—Mga Mata ni Angelita, Himala, Ang Huling Birhen sa Lupa, Santa Santita—that are focused on the discourse of religiosity and featured a female protagonist who imbibes the image and role of a female deity. Using a feminist framework, it analyzes the subgenre’s connection and significance to the Filipino consciousness of a female God, and the imaging of the Filipino woman in the context of a hybrid religion. The study determines how religion is used in Philippine cinema, and whether or not it promotes enlightenment. The films’ heavy reference to religious and biblical images is also examined as strategies for myth-building. his study looks at the existence of Filipino films that are focused T on the discourse of religiosity, featuring a female protagonist who imbibes the image and assumes the role of a female deity. The films included are Mga Mata ni Angelita (The Eyes of Angelita, 1978, Lauro Pacheco), Himala (Miracle, 1982, Ishmael Bernal), Ang Huling Birhen sa Lupa (The Last Virgin, 2002, Joel Lamangan) and Santa Santita (Magdalena, 2004, Laurice Guillen). In the four narratives, the female protagonists eventually incur supernatural powers after a perceived apparition of the Virgin Mary or the image of the Virgin Mary, and incurring stigmata or the wounds of Christ. Using a feminist framework, this paper through textual analysis looks at the Filipino woman in this subgenre, as well as those images’ connection and significance to the Filipino consciousness of a female God. -

REYES The Komiks and Retelling the Lore of the Folk Komiks (comics), which emerged in the 1920s, have captured the Filipinos’ imagination, subsequently becoming materials for major motion pictures, yet marginalized in cultural studies. This article offers a diachronic analysis of the komiks between the 1930s and the 1970s to reveal the relationship between selected komiks characters and the folk tradition embodied in epics and legends. It also explains the komiks writers’ fascination with the remote past and their construction of heroes and heroines. In illuminating the worldview of writers and readers and the meanings generated when texts and readers interact, this article problematizes the supposition that popular culture is unalloyed escapism.

SARE, Vol. 58, Issue 1 | 2021 Making Space for Myth: Worldbuilding and Interconnected Narratives in Mythspace Francis Paolo Quina University of the Philippines-Diliman, Quezon City, the Philippines Abstract The comics medium has long proven to be fertile ground for worldbuilding, spawning not only imaginary worlds but multiverses that have become international transmedial franchises. In the Philippines, komiks (as it is called locally) has provided the Filipino popular imagination with worlds populated by superheroes, super spies, supernatural detectives, and creatures from different Philippine mythologies. The komiks series Mythspace, written by Paolo Chikiamco and illustrated by several artist-collaborators, takes the latter concept, and launches it into outer space. Classified by its own writer as a “Filipino space opera” consisting of six loosely interconnected stories, Mythspace presents a storyworld where the creatures of Philippine lower mythologies are based on various alien species that visited the Philippines long ago. The article will examine the use of interconnected narratives as a strategy for worldbuilding in Mythspace. Drawing from both subcreation and comic studies, this article posits that interconnected narratives is a worldbuilding technique particularly well-suited to comics, and that the collaborative nature of the medium allows for a diversity of genres and visual styles that can be used by future komiks creators to develop more expansive storyworlds. Keywords: comics studies, subcreation studies, storyworlds, Mythspace, the Philippines The comics medium has long proven to be fertile ground for worldbuilding. It has spawned not only storyworlds in the pages of comic books and graphic novels but given birth to multiverses of storytelling across several media. -
Pablo Picasso Perhaps a Closer Examination of What the Renowned
1 Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION “Everything you can imagine is real”- Pablo Picasso Perhaps a closer examination of what the renowned painter actually means is that if a human being can imagine something in the scope of the natural laws of reality and physics, then it exists. This rings true for visual art. Whatever a person can conjure in his mind, whether a creature of imagination or an event, the fact that he thought about it means it exists in the realm of reality—not necessarily the realm of physical reality but in the realm of cognitive and mental reality. Pablo Picasso’s quote has been proven by the dominance of visual culture at the present. Today, fascination and enhancement of what people can do and what people can appreciate in the visual realm has seen a significant rise among the people of this generation. With the rise of virtual reality and the Internet in the West, combined with the global popularity of television, videotape and film, this trend seems set to continue (Mirzoeff 1999). In a book titled An Introduction to Visual Culture by Nicholas Mirzoeff, he explained that visual culture, very different from it’s status today, suffered hostility in the West: “a hostility to visual culture in Western thought, originating in the philosophy of Plato. Plato believed that the objects encountered in everyday life, including people, are simply bad copies of the perfect ideal of those objects” (1999, 9). Plato had the idea that what artists do are mere copies of the original, which makes it lose significance because copying what already exists, for Plato, is pointless: 2 In other words, everything we see in the “real” world is already a copy. -

Volume XXVII, No. 5 May 2009 www.filipinostar.org Filipino community wants live-in caregivers program improved The serious allegations of abuses by a Liberal MP, Ruby Dhalla, touched a sensitive chord among Filipino-Canadians everywhere. This case has reinforced what has long been a common knowledge that live-in caregivers are exploited, underpaid, and abused. Although there are some good employers, they are not the majority. The problem has always been a concern but it seems that government policies do not change without active lobbying by the community. Almost at the same time that this high profile case hit the newspaper headlines, there was already a proposed consultation meeting with the Minister of Immigration, Citizenship & Multiculturalism, Honorable Jason Kenney, scheduled by the end of May which was the result of prior meetings held with him in the past when he was holding the position of Secretary of A group was formed to work on immigration issues, focusing on the live-in caregivers program. to prepare for a consultation meeting with the Minister of Immigration, Citizenship and Multiculturalism, Hon.

UP Film Institute Filmography of Filipino Films 2003 Introduced by Lucenio Martin L. Lauzon Compiled by Virginia D. Cuyugan and Lucenio Martin L. Lauzon with assistance from Pol del Mundo of the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) Ana Fajardo of the Film Academy of the Philippines (FAP) Edwin Joaquin of the MOWELFUND Film Institute The Filipino film celebrates this year its 85th anniversary but its activities and achievements through the years still need to be documented and assessed fully and systematically. Today, the country is still wanting not only in the capability to preserve its film heritage but also in the determined and sustained efforts to collect and preserve existing data on Filipino film for posterity. It does not help that the conservation of Filipino heritage, taxing and tedious as it is already, is appreciated by only a few individuals even within the industry. As an institution dedicated to the study of films, the UP Film Institute (UPFI) shall try to help in the task of gathering, classifying and disseminating data on the Filipino film. As part of its commitment to the public, the UPFI shall make these data available to everyone through the publication of a systematic and comprehensive listing of Filipino films, beginning with those produced in 2003. This year is most apropos as it was also in 2003 that the UPFI was formally established by virtue of the UP Board of Regents resolution. The UPFI realizes that such filmographies are indispensable for anyone who wants to gain an overview of the film landscape in the country and to make necessary, informed and authoritative observations on the state of the Filipino film industry.
