Les meules rotatives du site ibérique d'Alcorda Park (Calafell, Baix Penedès, Tarragona)

El jaciment ibèric d' Alorda Park està situat a la costa central de Catalunya, a uns 30 km al nordest de Tarragona. El jaciment, l'ocupació del qual es data principalment entre el s. VI i el III aC, ha estat excavat extensament des de 1983. Els treballs d'excavació han lliurat sis metae i disset catilli de molins rotatius, la major part dels quals han estat reutilitzats per a usos secundaris. D' altra banda, cap molí rotatiu ha estat trobat in situ a l'interior d'una casa, de manera que es dedueix que la molta amb aquests instruments era probablement una activitat practicada en instal·lacions communals o bé per especialistes. Pel que fa a la funcionalitat d'aquestes peces, les anàlisis de residus indiquen que eren utilitzades per a la molta de cereals i, en un sol cas, de faves. Pel que fa a la cronologia, el més antic d'aquests exemplars data de mitjan segle V aC, i la utilització dels molins de rotació continua fins a finals de l'ocupació de l'assentament. Al llarg d'aquests tres segles, els molins rotatius d' Alorda Park sofreixen una evolució morfològica els trets essencials de la qual han pogut ser establerts. Els exemplars presentats són morfologicament similars a altres molins iberics de la costa central de Catalunya, pero es diferencien considerablement dels models documentats al País Valencia, a Ullastret i a la Gal·lia meridional. Aquest fet sembla indicar l'existència de tradicions locals ben caracteritzades, que hauran de ser precisades per les recerques futures. Finalment, cal observar que, segons les analisis de residus, els altres instruments lítics o de triturat descoberts al jaciment (molins de vaivé, morters) han estat utilitzats per a la transformació de materies primeres.

History and Design of Iowa's Highway Maintenance and Weighing Facilities, 2003

In June 2001, the Iowa Department of Transportation announced the imminent closure and disposal of selected highway maintenance facilities as part of cost-cutting measures mandated by the Iowa legislature, an action that was to be completed by July 31, 2001. The DOT recognized that some of these facilities might be "historical sites," which in the Iowa Code are defined as any district, site, building or structure listed on the National Register of Historic Places or identified as eligible for listing in the National Register by the State Historic Preservation Office. Section 303 of the Code requires state agencies to "enter into an agreement with the Department of Cultural Affairs [in which the SHPO is located] to ensure the proper management, maintenance and development of historical sites." The DOT saw this disposal action as an opportunity to compile information about its highway maintenance facilities that could be employed in development of a management program for historic highway maintenance facilities in the future. Subsequently, the DOT authorized a similar study of highway weigh stations.

Comparison of two strategies to prevent varicella outbreaks in housing facilities for asylum seekers.

BACKGROUND: The proportion of adults with positive varicella serology is lower in populations from tropical countries. Therefore immigrants to countries with a temperate climate are at risk of acquiring varicella infection during adulthood. METHODS: We tested two different strategies to prevent varicella outbreaks in housing facilities for asylum seekers arriving in the Canton of Vaud, Switzerland. The first strategy consisted of a rapid response with isolation of the affected individuals and vaccination of the susceptible contacts. The second strategy consisted of a general vaccination upon arrival of all asylum seekers aged 15-39 years with no history of chickenpox. RESULTS: From May 2008 to January 2009 we applied the rapid response strategy. Eight hundred and fifty-eight asylum seekers arrived in the Canton and an attack rate of 2.8% (seven cases among 248 exposed asylum seekers) was observed. The mean cost was US$ 31.35 per asylum seeker. The general vaccination strategy was applied from February 2009 to May 2010, a period during which 966 asylum seekers were registered. This second strategy completely prevented any outbreak at a mean cost of US$ 83.85 per asylum seeker. CONCLUSIONS: Of the two analyzed interventions to prevent varicella outbreaks in housing facilities for asylum seekers, the general vaccination strategy was more effective, more sustainable, and ethically preferable, although more costly.

1210-007IJ Central Park Lake Final Report

The Central Park Lake Watershed Assessment and Management Plan identified four categories where improvements are needed to remove the 23 acre lake from the impaired waters list. These include the wastewater system, runoff from surrounding lands, in-lake nutrient re-suspension and runoff from hard surfaces within the park. The lake is currently impaired for bacteria, algae and pH. Through outcomes of the Watershed Assessment and Management Plan, this proposal includes for abandonment and reclamation of the single cell wastewater lagoon site, replacement with three conventional septic systems and construction of two wetlands. One of the wetlands is located on the same site as the reclaimed lagoon and the other is located to intercept sediment and trap nutrients transported by tile lines. The prescribed wastewater system improvements are based on assessment by grab samples test by the State Hygienic Lab, development of a Preliminary Engineering Report, soil analysis and communication with IDNR wastewater officials. The two wetland sites were assessed by officials from IDALS and the Jones County SWCD. This project is part of $1.7 million lake restoration effort to reclaim the 47 year old lake. The lake has a positive economic impact of more than $7.6 million annually and supports an average annual visitation of 58,145, according to the Iowa Lakes Valuation Project, conducted by Iowa State University.
