Fortnightly Email: [email protected] One from the rough Teed off THE head of golf’s peak body in WA has tried to brush off the Human Rights Commission’s concerns about discrimination as a bit of a misunderstanding. Golf WA chief executive Gary Thomas says women are allowed to play on Saturdays if they have a full membership. “When they say ‘men’s day’, they really mean ‘full members’ day’,” Mr Thomas said. “The reality is that the vast majority of full members have been men.” Mr Thomas says “most” clubs provide equal opportunity for women.

  • Prevalence, Risk Factors and Symptoms Associated to Intestinal Parasite Infections Among Patients with Gastrointestinal Disorders in Nahavand, Western Iran
    Rev. Inst. Med. Trop. Sao Paulo 2016;58:42 http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S1678-9946201658042 ORIGINAL ARTICLE PREVALENCE, RISK FACTORS AND SYMPTOMS ASSOCIATED TO INTESTINAL PARASITE INFECTIONS AMONG PATIENTS WITH GASTROINTESTINAL DISORDERS IN NAHAVAND, WESTERN IRAN Hamed KIANI(1,2), Ali HAGHIGHI(1), Ali ROSTAMI(1), Eznollah AZARGASHB(2,3), Seyyed Javad SEYYED TABAEI(1), Abbas SOLGI(4) & Nozhat ZEBARDAST(1) SUMMARY We studied the prevalence of intestinal parasites (IPs), their risk factors and associated symptoms among patients with gastrointestinal disorders. A total of 1,301 participants aged 22 days-90 years were enrolled in this study. We used a structured questionnaire to obtain socio-demographic and stool examination to investigate intestinal parasite infections. Data analysis was performed using SPSS16. The overall prevalence of intestinal parasites (IPs) was 32.2% (419/1,301). Three hundred and fifty nine cases/1,301 (27.6%) were infected with a single parasite and 60/1,301 cases (4.6%) presented polyparasitism. The most common IP was Blastocystis sp. 350/1,301 (26.9%), followed by Entamoeba coli 38/1,301 (2.92%), Giardia lamblia 30/1,301 (2.3%) and Cryptosporidium spp. 17/1,301 (1.3%). Regarding the socio-demographic variables, educational status (p = 0.001), contact with domestic animals and soil (p = 0.02), age above 15 years (p = 0.001) and seasons (p = 0.001) were significantly associated to intestinal parasitic infections. Concerning clinical characteristics, the presence of IPs was significantly associated to diarrhea (OR = 1.57; CI 95% = 1.24-1.98; p < 0.001) and dysentery (OR = 1.94; CI 95% = 1.03-3.66; p < 0.04).

  • New Evidence on the Chronology of the “Anahita Temple”
    Iranica Antiqua, vol. XLIV, 2009 doi: 10.2143/IA.44.0.2034383 NEW EVIDENCE ON THE CHRONOLOGY OF THE “ANAHITA TEMPLE” BY Massoud AZARNOUSH (Iranian Center for Archaeological Research, Tehran) Abstract: Partly standing-partly excavated remains of a monument in Kangavar, a town in western Iran between Hamadan and Kermanshah, have been dated to the Seleucid and/or Parthian periods. In an article published in 1981, nevertheless, M. Azarnoush argues in favour of a late Sasanian date for this site. The discovery of a brick under the massive masonry of the western platform of the monument in the course of later excavations provided the possibility for thermoluminescence dating of this sample. The TL reading of the brick confi rms the Sasanian date of the monument. The present article intends to assess this and some other new information about the site. Keywords: W-Iran, Kangavar, Anahita Temple, Sasanian, chronology I- Introduction In an article published in 1981, I argued in favour of a late Sasanian date for the monument of Kangavar, frequently labelled the “Anahita Temple” (Azarnoush 1981: 69-94, Pl. 12-19). By that time I had completed two seasons of excavations on this site, following fi ve seasons of work headed by Seyfollâh-e Kâmbakhsh-e Fard, another Iranian archaeologist of whose expeditions I am certainly honoured to have been a member. Reasons backing the new chronology may be outlined in the following: – Isidor of Charax is the oldest author who mentions the presence of an Artemis Temple in Concobar, most probably the Greek pronunciation for the Iranian Kangavar.

  • Iranian Archaeologists Vol
    International Journal of the Society of Iranian Archaeologists Vol. 2, No. 4, Summer- Autumn 2016 An Analytical Study on the Bronze Age Cultures of Harsin, Kermanshah Province (Iran) Parisa Naseri University of Shahrekord Mohammad Eghbal Chehri Islamic Azad University Received: May, 30, 2016 Accepted: October, 21, 2016 Abstract: Despite the fact that the prehistoric period and particularly the Bronze Age in Central Zagros have been well studied and identified to some extent, no systematic research has been conducted by foreign or Iranian archeologists on the subject of Harsin County. A total of 29 sites belonging to the Bronze Age have been identified in the archeological investigation of the region between 2002 and 2010. Based on the surface findings, all of these sites belong to the Middle and Late Bronze Age. Furthermore, it was discovered that most of these sites formed on the banks of permanent and seasonal rivers and lakes. As for the extent of residential sites of Bronze Age in the region and their location, it is implied that there were rather important and large sites along with small villages, indicating close relationships with the neighboring regions at the end of the third millennium and the beginning of the second millennium B.C. (Middle Bronze Age). The significance of the current study lies in the fact that no evidence was obtained from the Early Bronze Age (Yanik Culture), while the region has maintained numerous cultural relationships with the neighboring areas such as Kangavar with ceramics such as Godin III, Mahidasht and Lorestan from the Middle to Late Bronze Age.

D u b a t o l o v & R e z a Z a h ir i received 26.X.2005 Abstract: Based on the vast material from the collection of the Hayk Mirzayans Insect Museum (HMIM) and literature data, 28 species are recorded from Iran. Callimorpha dominula rossica K o l ., Axiopoena kareliniMtu., Utetheisa lotrixCr ., Watsonarctia deserta B a r t ., Diaphora mendica C l . are recorded from this country for the first time. Four new subspecies, Arctia caja mazandarana subspec. nov. from the Caspian Coast, Eucharia festiva hormozgana subspec. nov. from South Iran, Watsonarctia deserta elbursica subspec. nov. from the Alburz Mts., and Pbragmatobia placida mirzayansi subspec. nov. with a pale coloration, from the high mountains of the Albourz are described. The analysis of the Arctiinae fauna shows that the fauna of South-Eastern Iran is the Oriental, and not Palearctic.

  • Taxonomic Revision and Zoogeographical Patterns of the Species of Gnopharmia Staudinger, 1892 (Geometridae, Ennominae)
    Zootaxa 3360: 1–52 (2012) ISSN 1175-5326 (print edition) www.mapress.com/zootaxa/ Article ZOOTAXA Copyright © 2012 · Magnolia Press ISSN 1175-5334 (online edition) Taxonomic revision and zoogeographical patterns of the species of Gnopharmia Staudinger, 1892 (Geometridae, Ennominae) HOSSEIN RAJAEI SH.1, DIETER STÜNING1 & ROBERT TRUSCH2 1 Zoologisches Forschungsmuseum Alexander Koenig, Adenauerallee 160, 53113 Bonn, Germany; E-Mail: [email protected] or [email protected]; [email protected] 2 Staatliches Museum für Naturkunde Karlsruhe, Erbprinzenstraße 13, D-76133 Karlsruhe, Germany; E-Mail: [email protected] Abstract The genus Gnopharmia Staudinger, 1892 is revised, based on more than 2000 specimens from the entire area of distribution and study of type material of all described taxa, as far asmap available. Seven species and three subspecies are confirmed as valid for the genus. All important morphological characters have been studied and compared, including male and female genitalia. In addition, preliminary results of DNA-Barcoding were used to reassess our taxonomic decisions, based on morphological studies. Type specimens and their labels are illustrated and additional specimens, demonstrating the variability of certain species, are also figured. Male genitalia of all valid species are figured and SEM photos of the aedeagus are illustrated. Further important structures, the so-called ‘octavals’ on the male pre-genital abdomen, are also figured. Female genitalia revealed a high similarity between species, combined with a considerable variability, and were unsuitable for characterisation of species. Female genitalia of three species are figured to exemplify this situation. As a result of the morphological and genetic studies, 12 out of the 21 described species and subspecies are synonymised or transferred to the closely related genus Neognopharmia Wehrli, 1953.
