RONGO-RONGO DALAM PEMENUHAN KEBUTUHAN RUMAH TANGGA
No full textThe term rongo-rongo is a burden-bearing worker in the namlea market. As a carrier, the rongo-rongo load up each item that is thought by the customer and follows the conscription for shopping. Occupational risks and health hazard do not prevent them from continuing to keep busy to meet the economic family. This study is a qualitative study that describes the existence of the rongo-rongo in order to meet the needs of the home. The location of this study is in the village Karang jaya, market namlea, namlea terminal, with visibility for informant activity. Studies have shown that the existence of rongo-rongo is a major pilar of the household’s living resources, an effort to control household needs is done by focusing on physical strength without considering ill-health risks. In addition to making up for needed, the rongo-rongo does the activities outside of the main work o.g cleaning up stores of laundry and agricultural product

Evaluation of Rongo Atea: Alcohol and Other Drug Treatment Centre for Adolescents
No full textAbstract Rongo Ātea is a residential abstinence-based Kaupapa Māori alcohol and other drug programme accommodating youth between the ages of 13 and 17. This evaluation investigates the role that staff play at Rongo Ātea along with a number of other factors including the physical environment; stages of change; programme implementation and aftercare. As a Kaupapa Māori programme, the role of how culture and identity can influence positive change is also explored along with the development of a youth-focused approach. I utilised a three phase framework borrowed from the work of Mason Durie (2008) to organise themes. These three phases, which Durie (2008) based on marae encounters, include Whakapiri (Engagement); Whakamarama (Enlightenment); and Whakamana (Empowerment) as they aptly reflect a three phase intervention approach: detoxification and early programme engagement; learning and development through ongoing programme commitment; and post treatment outcomes and aftercare. The data collection phase of this evaluation took place in 2006 and was initiated by the manager of Rongo Ātea who requested an evaluation to identify programme strengths and limitations from the perspectives of staff and students, and to make recommendations to Rongo Ātea that would assist with further programme developments. I utilised a collaborative and participatory approach (Bishop, 1996; Patton, 1990). Kaupapa Māori research principles were reflected in the use of ‘kanohi kitea’— face to face contact (Smith, 1999). With appropriate training and management support, staff could have a greater influence on programme outcomes. Evaluation findings suggest that drug and alcohol intervention and treatment for young people in New Zealand is significantly under-resourced, particularly in the areas of detoxification and aftercare. To be effective, residential treatment programmes should consist of a three stage programme covering detoxification; treatment; and aftercare incorporating an integrated approach. A greater emphasis on working with whānau alongside the young person is recommended
Peut-on se fonder sur le témoignage de Métoro pour déchiffrer les rongo-rongo ?
No full textCan Métoro' s Readings be Relied Upon for the Decipherment of the Rongorongo? Mgr Jaussen had four of the five tablets in his possession read by his informant, Metoro (tablets Aruku-Kurenga, Tahua, Mamari, and Keiti). Those readings are reproduced in Barthel 1958 : 173-199 as they must have appeared in Jaussen' s unpublished manuscript, and faithful tracings of the hieroglyphic texts are given in appendix. The direction of the reading is one of the very few things known beyond the shadow of a doubt. Comparing Metoro' s readings against the hieroglyphic texts shows that he read the obverse of the last two tablets in an order incompatible with any understanding of their contents. Metoro read the lunar calendar of tablet Mamari last line first, and failed to recognize the very obvious pictographic sign for the full moon. Not only did he read every single line of the obverse of tablet Keiti backwards, from end to beginning, but he skipped the first six signs, and reinserted them after finishing reading the second line. Barthel was aware of those facts, but he clung to the belief that Metoro mastered the writing perfectly. This led him to ignore internal contrary evidence in his attempts at decipherment, thus when he proposed the reading ure ( penis ) for glyph 76 of his nomenclature, an interpretation unsupported by Metoro' s other readings of that sign. Metoro knew nothing. Or, if he knew anything, he was careful not to reveal it. His chants, far from providing a key to the decipherment, are fantastic, misguiding interpretations which can only hinder attempts at analyzing and understanding the rongorongo.L'examen des notes de Jaussen montre que Métoro, vraisemblablement enhardi par son succès à capter l'intérêt de l'évêque, a tenté de sonder ce qu'il prenait pour de la crédulité en lisant dans un désordre grandissant le verso des deux dernières tablettes qui lui ont été présentées. Jaussen semble s'en être aperçu et ne pas avoir été dupe. Barthel rapporte les faits sans pour autant tirer la conclusion qui s'impose : que Métoro ne savait rien et qu'il se moquait sans doute de Jaussen. C'est au contraire sur le témoignage fantaisiste de Métoro qu'il s'appuiera pour tenter de déchiffrer les rongo-rongo, ce qui le mènera à proposer des interprétations sans fondement. Les chants de Métoro, loin de constituer une clef possible, ne peuvent que retarder le déchiffrement des tablettes en égayant les chercheurs sur de fausses pistes.Guy Jacques B. M.

The perception of COVID-19 among Italian dentists: An orthodontic point of view
No full textCOVID-19 has severely impacted dentists, who are at a great risk of infection. This study aimed to investigate if dentists are anxious about returning to their daily activities, and what the perception of the risk is for dentists and orthodontists regarding orthodontic procedures. An online questionnaire, including the Patient Health Questionnaire-4 (PHQ-4), was sent to Italian dentists during the final days of the lockdown with items about anxiety, fear, distress, perceived risk for operators, and concerns about orthodontic patients caused by working during the COVID-19 outbreak. Data were analyzed with a chi-square test and logistic regression analysis. The level of significance was set as p < 0.05. A total of 349 dentists completed the survey, including 183 orthodontists. Returning to their daily work activity was a source of anxiety for 192 participants and this was associated with the level of distress (odds ratio (OR) = 3.7; p < 0.001). Most of the orthodontists (67.6%) thought that they would increase the number of working hours during the week (OR = 1.8; p = 0.007). Italian dentists were mostly scared to return to their daily activities because they considered their jobs a high risk to them and their families. Dentists with an exclusive/prevailing orthodontic activity were forced to increase their working day during the week
Mineralogical Analysis of Quadrangle Ac-H-10 Rongo on the Dwarf Planet Ceres
No full textQuadrangle Ac-H-10 ‘Rongo’ (Lat 22°S to 22°N, Lon 288°–360°E) shows a fairly homogeneous topography, with the presence of notable elevations such as Ahuna Mons, Liberalia Mons, and part of Samhain and Uhola Catenae. The deepest areas correspond to the Rongo crater region, the areas between Samhain and Uhola catenae, and the region of the quadrangle south of Ahuna Mons. A substantial variability in the 2.7-µm band depth distribution is observed across the Rongo quadrangle, indicating an east-west gradient in the abundance of Mg-phyllosilicates. The NH4-phyllosilicates distribution appears quite homogeneous, except some localized regions, such as crater Haulani's ejecta, the flanks of Ahuna Mons, and crater Begbalel. The two band depths at 2.7 and 3.1 µm display an overall low correlation, suggesting a variable degree of mixing between Mg-phyllosilicates and NH4-phyllosilicates. At the local scale, mineralogical phases other than phyllosilicates are observed. Quadrangle Rongo includes sodium carbonate-rich regions, such as the flanks of Ahuna Mons, the ejecta of Xevioso crater located in the southern edge of Liberalia Mons, and crater Begbalel, which often display a reduction in both the 2.7- and 3.1-µm band depths, associated with an increased band depth at ∼4 µm, related to the presence of Na-rich carbonate phases. This suggests recent hydrothermal activity in this area, due to several episodes of cryovolcanism, or impacts that unveiled a peculiar composition in the shallow subsurface. Alternatively, the crust in this region might show a variable degree of compactness, such that the formation of Na-carbonates is favored only in specific locations (De Sanctis et al., 2016; Ruesch et al., 2016; Zambon et al., 2017). From a geological standpoint, quadrangle Ac-H-10 Rongo shows a correlation between its two main geologic units (Platz et al., 2017) and the distribution of Mg-phyllosilicates, suggesting a link between geology and mineralogy in this area
Impact of skeletal divergence on oral health-related quality of life and self-reported jaw function
No full textObjective: To investigate the differences in oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) and self-reported jaw function between patients with hyperdivergent and normodivergent facial types. Methods: Eighty patients with a distinctively hyperdivergent facial type (mandibular plane angle greater than 2 standard deviations, or 42 degrees) and 80 controls were individually matched according to age, sex, ethnicity, and treatment stage. Data were collected using self-report questionnaires such as the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14) and Jaw Functional Limitation Scale (JFLS-8). Results: The mean age of the patients was 17.2 +/- 4.6 years (range, 12-49 years), with most (65.0%) being female and of New Zealand European origin (91.3%). Individuals with hyperdivergent facial types had higher overall and social domain scores on the OHIP-14 (p 0.05). Conclusions: Jaw function appears to be similar in individuals with hyperdivergent and normodivergent facial morphologies. However, those with hyperdivergent facial types are more likely to self-report poorer OHRQoL than are those with normal faces, especially in relation to social aspects
Mineralogy of Rongo Quandrangle on Ceres
No full textAfter more than one year orbit around Ceres, Dawn spacecraft covered large part of its surface, allowing for a global mineralogical mapping of the entire surface. For mapping purposes, likewise for Vesta, also Ceres’ surface has been divided in 15 quadrangles. Here we describe the quadrangle Ac-H-10 Rongo located in the equatorial region (288°-360°E, 22S-22N) of Ceres. VIR, the visible and infrared spectrometer onboard Dawn, acquired data at different spatial resolutions, allowing for identify the various mineralogical phases characteristic of Ceres surface, at global and local scale [1,2]. Ceres spectra present several bands in the spectral region between 2.5 and 4-µm. Spectral parameters retrieved by VIR data indicate a widespread distribution of NH4-phillosilicates, and OH-rich clays [1]. Rongo quadrangle contains about five gelogical units [3], not always associated with mineralogical variations. The depth of the 3.1-µm band, due to the presence of NH4–Phyllosicates, is quite homogeneous except for some localized regions in which this band appear shallower, and a similar trend is observed for the OH-singnature at 2.7-µm. The dominant feature of this quadrangle is Ahuna Mons, a unique case on Ceres [4]. Ahuna Mons is the largest mountain of the dwarf planet, and conversely to other geological units, shows a spectral parmeters variation with respect to other areas, linked to mineralogical differences
