PAPUA NEW GUINEA HIGHLANDS 'Papuan Wonderland' The Southern Highlands The Southern Highlands is an area of Papua New Guinea that was described in 1935 as the 'Papuan Wonderland' by explorer and patrol leader J. G. Hides, one of the first 'outsiders' to have contact with the main groups living in the area. The description fits; the geography of the area ranges from steaming lowland rain forest to alpine tundra; classical volcanic cones, alluvial fans, gorges, glacial land forms and magnificent lakes. One such lake is Kutubu, the unspoiled location of the major on-stream oil and gas fields operated by Chevron Niugini. Much of Mendi's development has been as a result of the comparatively recent mineral activity in the area, but in fact the first patrol station was set up in 1937 on Lake Kutubu, serviced by seaplanes, and it was the base from which almost all exploration of the Southern Highlands took place before World War II. However, economic development of the area only became possible in the 1970's when the Highlands Highway was extended into the province, reaching Mendi in 1974 and Tari not until 1977. Until this time the entire area was cut-off from the outside world so it is one of the least developed and culturally rich areas in the country.

Nutrition Program 2001 Papau New Guinea NEGOTIATING 'OPEN SPACE': THE IMPORTANCE OF CULTURAL CONTEXT IN HIV/AIDS COMMUNICATION MODELSA QUALITATIVE STUDY OF GENDER, SEXUALITY, AND REPRODUCTION IN THE TROBRIAND ISLANDS OF PAPUA NEW GUINEA ABSTRACT "Everything has come up to the open space." The epidemic of human immunodeficiency virus and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) is a global concern, and the means to minimise viral transmission are universal but limited. Public health responses to the epidemic primarily rely on communication strategies to educate target groups about the risks of sexual transmission of the virus, and to motivate behaviour change to minimise risk behaviour. HIV/AIDS awareness and prevention messages emphasise the importance of ‘negotiating safe sex’ as a prerequisite for risk reduction. This strategy holds serious assumptions about the gender balance of power in sexual relationships. This thesis is premised on the argument that a process for negotiating ‘open space’ is first required to closely examine the language of HIV interventions, and to consider women’s risk for acquiring HIV in relation to their culturally valued reproductive role in childbearing. ‘Open space’ is the metaphor to describe the interface between cultures, the common ground where talk can be negotiated between the western culture of biomedical models and HIV/AIDS interventions, and the indigenous culture comprising local contexts. Required in the global response are approaches that promote interactive dialogue where people are engaged at the local level to identify and articulate appropriate responses informed by the social and cultural context.

She carried out additional study at the University of Missouri and Columbia University. As a young woman, Macgregor was a documentary photographer.

Invasive Alien Species Salvinia molesta D.S. Mitchell Author: Colette C. Jacono Common Name: giant salvina, Kariba weed, African pyle, aquarium watermoss, koi kandy Taxonomy: Family-Salviniaceae; Division-Polypodiophyta (Pteridophyta), true ferns Identification: Free floating aquatic fern. Consisting of a horizontal stem lying just below the water surface that produces a pair of ovate to oblong floating leaves and a highly dissected submerged leaf at each node. During early stages plants are smaller and leaves lie flat on the water surface. As plants grow, leaves curl at the edges. Eventually a verticle leaf position is attained as mature plants press into tight chains and form mats of many floating plants. Giant salvinia reproduces very effectively through vegetative means. Stems fragment as plants mature and new plants develop from apical and lateral buds. Each node harbors up to five serial lateral buds (Lemon and Posluszny 1997), adding to the species' high potential for growth and dormancy. Plants will withstand periods of stress, both low temperature and dewatering, as dormant buds. Note: Four species of Salvinia (S. auriculata, S. biloba, S. herzogii, and S. molesta) share the feature of egg beater-like hairs. All can be expected to be agressive weeds and all four are prohibited as Federal Noxious Weeds. Of the four with egg beater-like hairs, only S. molesta is presently being found in the United States.

Bird Remains, San Juan Island, WA Kris Bovy (University of Washington), under the direction of Dr. Julie Stein, has studied bird bones excavated at British Camp in the San Juan Islands. She found that there is an unusually high number of bird wing bones at the site (relative to other bird bones). There are a number of hypotheses for why this pattern may exist. For example, do wing bones survive because they are less fragile than other skeletal parts of a bird, such as the skull? Did prehistoric occupants hoard the bird wings for their colorful feathers or bones (used to make tools)? The proportion of wing bones found in the San Juan materials.
