The Rathbun Land and Water Alliance and partners have undertaken a highly effective approach to water quality protection through the Rathbun Lake Special Project. This approach is achieving a significant reduction in the sediment and phosphorus that impair water quality in Rathbun Lake and its tributaries as a result of the targeted application of best management practices (BMPs) for priority land in the watershed. This project application proposes to assist landowners to apply BMPs that will reduce sediment and phosphorus delivery from priority land in one targeted sub-watershed as part of the Rathbun Lake Special Project. Features of this project are: (1) use of geographic information system (GIS) analysis to identify priority land that requires BMPs; (2) assistance for landowners to apply BMPs on 1,450 acres that will reduce the annual delivery of sediment by 2,160 tons and phosphorus by 8,210 pounds; (3) evaluation of the benefits from BMP application using GIS analysis and water quality monitoring; and (4) watershed outreach activities that encourage landowners to apply BMPs for priority land to protect water quality.

Objective. The goal of this study was to present the pathological and radiological patterns of "vulnerable" atherosclerotic plaques in cases of sudden cardiac death. Method. This retrospective study was performed on forensic cases for which the cause of death was attributed to coronary artery disease. A complete autopsy was performed in all cases, along with either post-mortem CT-angiography, toxicological analyses and/or biochemistry. Results. 89 cases were selected (mean age 55±11.6 years; 75 men and 14 women). In 96.6% of cases a CT-angiography was performed. Acute coronary lesions were found in 60 cases (mean age 53±11.1 years), which included plaque erosion in 26 cases (mean age 47±8.3 years) and ruptures or intraplaque hemorrhage in 33 cases (mean age 58±10.4 years). Erosions were most frequently found in the left ascending artery (61.5 %), while only 36% of ruptures were observed in this artery. Chronic coronary pathology was described in 30 cases (mean age 58±10.4 years). CT-angiographies performed prior to the autopsy enabled an initial evaluation of coronary artery perfusion. Conclusion. In the face of decreasing clinical autopsy rates, postmortem studies on forensic autopsies, including modern radiological examinations, allow for a more thorough understanding of the clinical picture of disease which can result in sudden cardiac death.

Els darrers anys han estat molt convulsos en el món financer. De tots és coneguda la crisi, immobiliària en un primer moment, i financera més tard. Reestructuracions, fusions, absorcions, intervencions i nacionalitzacions han estat a l’ordre del dia en el món de les entitats financeres els últims 3 anys. El mapa financer ha passat de més de 50 entitats a poc menys de 10 en tan sols 3 anys. Els departaments de tecnologia de bancs i caixes no han estat aliens a aquests moviments. Tot i estar relativament al marge del negoci financer de l’entitat, cada fusió ha atorgat un paper protagonista a tota la plantilla informàtica. Ja que cada reestructuració ha suposat un gran esforç per integrar entitats molt diferents entre si en una de sola. Intentant que l’impacte a clients i a usuaris fos el menor possible. Caixa Manlleu és un exemple proper de la reestructuració del món financer, i ha protagonitzat, juntament amb Caixa Sabadell i Caixa Terrassa, la creació d’Unnim. Aquest cas real serà la base del treball. El projecte consisteix en la creació d’una plataforma informàtica per a la nova entitat resultant de la fusió. Una plataforma amb un doble objectiu: d’una banda, que reculli el millor de les tres plataformes d’origen i que compleixi tots els requestis que la nova entitat exigeix per tal que els usuaris puguin continuar fent les tasques diàries. I de l’altra, una plataforma que posi al dia i actualitzi tecnològicament l’entitat amb el mínim cost possible. Així doncs, cal analitzar per separat cadascuna de les 3 plataformes existents, inventariar les aplicacions comunes i les departamentals, així com les llicències de software vigents existents i no caducades. Decidir quines aplicacions es faran servir, si se’n poden aprofitar o si per contra en calen de noves. També cal analitzar quins equips informàtics (terminals) es necessitaran per tal de treure el màxim rendiment de la plataforma. Entre les conclusions obtingudes en el projecte, cal destacar els grans avantatges d’utilitzar aplicacions virtualitzades en lloc de les tradicionals aplicacions instal·lades físicament a cada terminal. Faciliten la feina i el manteniment, estalvien recursos i fan guanyar temps. A més a més s’aconsegueix una plataforma àgil, lleugera i ràpida.

The main channel of Upper Buffalo Creek has been identified on Iowa's 303(d) List of Impaired Waters as having a biological impairment (i.e., greater than 50% decrease in mussel species) due to habitat modification, stream alteration, nutrients, and/or siltation. The Buchanan County SWCD has identified this as a priority watershed because mussel population decreases have been well documented to be directly associated with decreases in ecological value, recreational value, and overall water quality. The presence of a diverse and reproducing mussel population indicates that a healthy aquatic ecosystem is intact, which means good fishing, good water quality for wildlife, and assurance that water is safe for recreation. Dan Cohen, Buchanan Conservation Board Director, stated that "should water quality conditions improve, and fishing holes and habitat be enhanced, there is no doubt that many people would take advantage of the renewed recreational opportunities". This watershed contains two "threatened" species of mussels and five "sensitive" species of fish. The District feels that a watershed project will assist in implementing conservation practices that will greatly improve water quality and enhance biological and recreational venues.

The Lost Island Lake watershed is located in the prairie pothole region, a region dotted with glacial wetlands and shallow lakes. At 1,180 acres, Lost Island Lake is the state's fifth largest natural lake and its watershed is comprised of nearly 1,000 acres of wetland habitat, including Iowa 's largest natural wetland – Barringer Slough. Unfortunately, Lost Island and its associated wetlands are not functioning to their fullest ecological and water quality potential. In 2002 and 2004, Lost Island Lake was categorized as '·impaired'" on Iowa's Impaired Waters List. Frequent algal blooms and suspended solids drastically increase turbidity levels resulting in its impairment. To investigate these concerns, a two-year study and resulting Water Quality Improvement Plan were completed. The water quality study identified an overabundance of non-native common carp (Cyprinus carpio) in the lake and its surrounding wetlands as a primary cause of impairment. The goal of the Lost Island Lake Watershed Enhancement Project is to restore ecological health to Lost Island Lake and its intricate watershed resulting in improved water quality and a diverse native plant and wildlife community. The purpose of this grant is to obtain funding for the construction of two combination fish barriers and water control structures placed at key locations in the watershed within the Blue Wing Marsh complex. Construction of the fish barriers and water control structures would aid restoration efforts by preventing spawning common carp from entering wetlands in the watershed and establishing the ability to manage water levels in large wetland areas. Water level management is crucial in wetland health and exotic fish control. These two structures are part of a larger construction project that involves a total of four combination fish barriers and water control structures and one additional fish barrier. The entire Lost Island Lake Watershed Enhancement Project is a multi-year project, but the construction phase for the fish barriers and water control structures will be completed before December 31, 2011.

The Rathbun Land and Water Alliance and partners have implemented a uniquely effective approach to water quality protection through the Rathbun Lake Special Project. This approach is achieving a significant reduction in the sediment and phosphorus that impair water quality in Rathbun Lake and its tributaries as a result of the targeted application of best management practices (BMPs) for priority land in the watershed. This project application proposes to assist landowners to apply BMPs that will reduce sediment and phosphorus delivery from priority land in four targeted sub-watersheds as part of the Rathbun Lake Special Project. Features of this project are: (1) use of geographic information system (GIS) analysis to identify priority land that requires BMPs; (2) assistance for landowners to apply BMPs on 5,100 acres that will reduce the annual delivery of sediment by 8,130 tons and phosphorus by 35,980 pounds; (3) evaluation of the benefits from BMP application using GIS analysis and water quality monitoring; and (4) watershed outreach activities that encourage landowners to apply BMPs for priority land to protect water quality.

Price Creek is a 13 mile long stream located in SE Benton County and the NE corner of Iowa County. It ends below the village of Amana where it flows into the Iowa River. The Iowa and Benton County Soil & Water Conservation Districts (SWCDs) applied (and were tentatively approved) for 319/WPF/WSPF funding to treat livestock and water quality issues in this watershed over the next three years. That project’s funds were allocated for a Project Coordinator, information and education activities, and cost share for Best Management Practices (BMPs) directed toward livestock issues and nutrient issues. Soil erosion and sedimentation are also problems in this 18,838 acre watershed. It is 64% HEL (highly erodible land) and 58% of it is cropped. With a coordinator working with Price Creek producers, this would be an excellent time to also address the soil loss and sedimentation issues in this watershed. We will offer additional cost share incentives on BMPs targeting soil erosion on the critical areas we’ve identified. We are applying to IWIRB for additional funding to allow us to cost share specific BMPs up to 75% to treat soil loss in these critical areas of the Price Creek Watershed.

Manteno Lake is located 8 miles northwest of Earling, IA in Shelby County. The lake has been impaired with an overload of silt and nutrients. In October of 2007, land directly north of the lake will be coming out of CRP and back into agricultural production. The Shelby Soil and Water Conservation District, Shelby County Board of Supervisors and Shelby County Conservation Board feel strongly that treatment of this area is necessary prior to the CRP contract expiring. The placement and construction of three structures will reduce the amount of silt and nutrients affecting Manteno Lake. This project calls for the construction of three structures on crucial tributaries to the lake.
