  • Transitions for the Delta Economy
    Transitions for the Delta Economy January 2012 Josué Medellín-Azuara, Ellen Hanak, Richard Howitt, and Jay Lund with research support from Molly Ferrell, Katherine Kramer, Michelle Lent, Davin Reed, and Elizabeth Stryjewski Supported with funding from the Watershed Sciences Center, University of California, Davis Summary The Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta consists of some 737,000 acres of low-lying lands and channels at the confluence of the Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers (Figure S1). This region lies at the very heart of California’s water policy debates, transporting vast flows of water from northern and eastern California to farming and population centers in the western and southern parts of the state. This critical water supply system is threatened by the likelihood that a large earthquake or other natural disaster could inflict catastrophic damage on its fragile levees, sending salt water toward the pumps at its southern edge. In another area of concern, water exports are currently under restriction while regulators and the courts seek to improve conditions for imperiled native fish. Leading policy proposals to address these issues include improvements in land and water management to benefit native species, and the development of a “dual conveyance” system for water exports, in which a new seismically resistant canal or tunnel would convey a portion of water supplies under or around the Delta instead of through the Delta’s channels. This focus on the Delta has caused considerable concern within the Delta itself, where residents and local governments have worried that changes in water supply and environmental management could harm the region’s economy and residents.

  • Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease with Initial Right Hemiparesis Masquerading As
    CASE Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease with initial right REPORT hemiparesis masquerading as a stroke KF Ko 高貴護 WY Lau 劉永欣 The early stage of sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease is generally characterised by progressive WK Cheng 鄭永強 changes in behaviour and intellectual function. While only a few patients have stroke-like MC Kwan 關緬中 onset, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease with initial monoparesis has been described. In this report, a LK Yip 葉麗娟 patient with an unusual sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease with typical magnetic resonance imaging findings, positive cerebrospinal fluid 14-3-3 brain protein, sharp-wave complexes in electroencephalogram, and initial right hemiparesis is reported. Introduction Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) is the most common human prion disease.1 While between 10% and 15% of cases are familial and a small number are iatrogenic, most (85%) are sporadic. The early stage of sporadic CJD is characterised by changes in behaviour and intellectual function, often followed by ataxia, abnormality of vision, and myoclonic jerks involving either a limb or the entire body.2 The minority of cases may have atypical presentations with abrupt onset and prolonged progression.3,4 However, CJD presenting with initial neurological symptoms and signs masquerading as a stroke is exceptional.5 Previously, CJD with initial monoparesis has been reported.6 In this report, a patient with CJD presenting with right hemiparesis is described. Case report A 60-year-old woman presented in January 2009 with a 2-week history of right-sided weakness and associated difficulty in writing (she was right-handed). She was also found to be increasingly irritable, with poor concentration and memory.

Summary “Once a landscape has been established, its origins are repressed from memory. It takes on the appearance of an ‘object’ which has been there, outside us, from the start.” Karatani Kojin (1993), Origins of Japanese Literature The Sacramento–San Joaquin Delta is the hub of California’s water supply system and the home of numerous native fish species, five of which already are listed as threatened or endangered. The recent rapid decline of populations of many of these fish species has been followed by court rulings restricting water exports from the Delta, focusing public and political attention on one of California’s most important and iconic water controversies.
