Bacterial Contamination of Drinking Water and Nutritional
Tropical Medicine and Health Vol. 36 No. 2, 2008, pp. 65-74 Copyright! 2008 by The Japanese Society of Tropical Medicine ６５ Original article Bacterial contamination of drinking water and nutritional quality of diet in the areas of the western Solomon Islands devastated by the April 2, 2007 earthquake/tsunami Takuro Furusawa1*, Norio Maki2 and Shingo Suzuki2 Received 14 December, 2007 Accepted 6 March, 2008 Published online 2 July, 2008 Abstract: On 2nd April 2007, at 7:40 local time (20:40 GMT 1 April), a massive earthquake, the epicenter of which was 10 km deep and 45 km south-southeast of Gizo, the provincial capital of the Western Province, struck the Solomon Islands, killing 52 people and displacing approximately 5,000. This study, based on field research in May 2007, reports on the result of the cross-sectional assessment of the bacterial contamination (E. coli, Vibrio spp. and total bacteria) of drinking water and water sources and the longitudinal comparison of dietary intake and epide- miology in six earthquake- and tsunami-affected villages in the Western Province, Solomon Islands. The test-paper method revealed that 92.0% of drinking-water was unsafe in four camps of evacuated people. Only 3 out of 11 drink-water samples collected from safe water sources were free from contamination throughout the study villages. The reported occurrence of diarrhea, while only 7.6 per mil in 2001 and 4.8 per mil in 2003 in one of the study vil- lages, was 12.7 person-days per mil after the disaster in 2007. Deterioration of dietary intakes was not observed.

CLUA The CRISP programme is implemented as part of the Regional Environment Programme for a contribution to conservation and sustainable development of coral T (CRISP), sponsored by France and prepared by the French Development Agency (AFD) as part of an inter-ministerial project from 2002 onwards, aims to develop a vi- sion for the future of these unique eco-systems and the communities that depend on them and to introduce strategies and projects to conserve their biodiversity, while developing the economic and environmental services that they provide both locally and globally. Also, it is designed as a factor for integration between developed coun- - land developing countries. The CRISP Programme comprises three major components, which are: Component 1A: Integrated Coastal Management and watershed management - 1A1: Marine biodiversity conservation planning - 1A2: Marine Protected Areas - 1A3: Institutional strengthening and networking - 1A4: Integrated coastal reef zone and watershed management CRISP Coordinating Unit (CCU) Component 2: Development of Coral Ecosystems Programme manager : Eric CLUA - 2A: Knowledge, monitoring and management of coral reef ecosytems SPC - PoBox D5 - 2B: Reef rehabilitation 98848 Noumea Cedex - 2C: Development of active marine substances

Women and Men in a Vernacular Language Education Movement in Melanesia Debra Mcdougall
7 Gendered Ambition and Disappointment: Women and Men in a Vernacular Language Education Movement in Melanesia Debra McDougall Introduction ‘They ruin us when they teach English first’ –18-year-old man of Ranongga Island, Solomon Islands Young people of Solomon Islands are expected to learn to read and write in English, a language that many do not speak or understand well. Most rural children grow up speaking one (sometimes several) of the country’s more than 70 indigenous languages as well as the neo-Melanesian English-based creole Pijin; some urban children learn the indigenous language of their rural-born parents or grandparents, but most grow up speaking Pijin, which is the language of urban life (Jourdan, 2013). Multilingualism, rather than monolingualism, is the norm rather than the exception in Solomon Islands; people move fluidly between different indigenous languages, Pijin and English. Yet few feel entirely confident in English—the country’s official language, the language of status and the language of schooling. Even tertiary-trained teachers often lack confidence 183 UNEQUAL LIVES in their mastery of English and use Pijin as the language of instruction (Tanangada, 2013). English-only education is particularly devastating for rural children, who are already disadvantaged in the Solomon Islands educational system. For decades, scholars of multilingual education and language policy have argued that children learn best when taught in their first language (Ball, 2011; Lo Bianco, 2015; United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, 1953). Resistance to first-language education policies is often based on the false assumption that the sooner children learn a standardised national or global language, the more likely they are to master it.

Library of Congress Subject Headings for the Pacific Islands
Library of Congress Subject Headings for the Pacific Islands First compiled by Nancy Sack and Gwen Sinclair Updated by Nancy Sack Current to January 2020 Library of Congress Subject Headings for the Pacific Islands Background An inquiry from a librarian in Micronesia about how to identify subject headings for the Pacific islands highlighted the need for a list of authorized Library of Congress subject headings that are uniquely relevant to the Pacific islands or that are important to the social, economic, or cultural life of the islands. We reasoned that compiling all of the existing subject headings would reveal the extent to which additional subjects may need to be established or updated and we wish to encourage librarians in the Pacific area to contribute new and changed subject headings through the Hawai‘i/Pacific subject headings funnel, coordinated at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa.. We captured headings developed for the Pacific, including those for ethnic groups, World War II battles, languages, literatures, place names, traditional religions, etc. Headings for subjects important to the politics, economy, social life, and culture of the Pacific region, such as agricultural products and cultural sites, were also included. Scope Topics related to Australia, New Zealand, and Hawai‘i would predominate in our compilation had they been included. Accordingly, we focused on the Pacific islands in Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia (excluding Hawai‘i and New Zealand). Island groups in other parts of the Pacific were also excluded. References to broader or related terms having no connection with the Pacific were not included. Overview This compilation is modeled on similar publications such as Music Subject Headings: Compiled from Library of Congress Subject Headings and Library of Congress Subject Headings in Jewish Studies.

Review of Schismatogobius (Gobiidae) from Papua New Guinea to Samoa, with description of seven new species by Philippe KEITH* (1), Clara LORD (1) & Helen K. LARSON (2) Abstract. – The species of Schismatogobius from Papua New Guinea to Samoa are reviewed and compared to the three known species described from the area. Eleven species are recognized including seven new species. These are described using genetic and morphomeristic approaches. The species differ by a high percentage of divergence in partial COI gene (636 bp) and by several characters including the number of pectoral fin rays, the pattern of the ventral surface of the head in males and/or females, the pectoral fin colour pattern, the jaw length/ head length ratio or the jaw length of male and/or female, and the fin lengths. Résumé. – Revue de Schismatogobius (Gobiidae) de la Papouasie-Nouvelle-Guinée à Samoa, avec description de sept nouvelles espèces. © SFI De nombreux spécimens de Schismatogobius, collectés de la Papouasie-Nouvelle-Guinée aux îles Samoa, Received: 1 Dec. 2016 Accepted: 20 Feb. 2017 ont été étudiés et comparés aux trois espèces décrites de la région. Onze espèces ont été répertoriées dont sept Editor: J.Y. Sire nouvelles. Celles-ci sont décrites en utilisant des approches génétique et morphoméristique. Elles diffèrent par un fort pourcentage de divergence de la séquence partielle du gène COI (636 pb) et par plusieurs caractères incluant, principalement, le nombre de rayons aux nageoires pectorales, la coloration de la surface ventrale de la tête du mâle et/ou de la femelle, le ratio longueur de la mâchoire/longueur de la tête ou longueur de la mâchoire Key words du mâle et/ou de la femelle, et la longueur des nageoires.
