  • A Model of Excellence for Weekly Newspapers in Iowa
    A MODEL OF EXCELLENCE FOR WEEKLY NEWSPAPERS IN IOWA A THESIS Presented to The School of Journalism and Mass Comunication DRAKE UNIVERSITY In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in Mass Communication by AMY K. DUNCAN MAY 1994 A MODEL OF EXCELLENCE FOR WEEKLY NEWSPAPERS IN IOWA By Amy Duncan Approved by Committee: . Professor Michael Perkins Dr. Louis Wolter Acting Dean of the School of Journalism and Mass Communication A MODEL OF EXCELLENCE FOR WEEKLY NEWSPAPERS IN IOWA An abstract of a thesis by Amy K. Duncan May 1994 Drake University Advisor: Professor Herbert Strentz Weekly newspapers are what people read to find out their local news. While The Des Moines Register and the like cover the "big" news of the day - Haiti, Somalia, health care -it is the weekly newspapers that bring people the most local news - city council reports, the features on local heroes and the information on how the "big" news affects their small communities. But there is little in existing research to tell us what exactly is the charge of weekly newspapers, and even less telling us how well they live up to this charge. This thesis starts by reporting the results of a survey of 100 editors of Iowa weekly newspapers to determine which weekly newspapers in Iowa are considered the best, what the best weekly newspapers in Iowa do well, and what all weekly newspapers in Iowa do well. From the responses to this survey, it is easy to determine that Iowa weekly &tors believe that weekly newspapers should present mostly local news, they should do it honestly and accurately, and they should package it attractively.

  • Federal Highway Administration Record of Decision
    FEDERAL HIGHWAY ADMINISTRATION RECORD OF DECISION Eastern Hills Drive and Connecting Roadways Pottawattamie County, Iowa HDP-1642(645)--71-78 I. Decision FHWA, in coordination with Iowa DOT and public input, identified Build Alternative 3 as the Selected Alternative for the proposed Eastern Hills Drive and Connecting Roadways project, as described in the Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS). The Selected Alternative identified and discussed in this Record of Decision (ROD) is the Preferred Alternative identified in the FEIS. The purpose of the project is to improve the transportation network in the eastern Council Bluffs area by completing Eastern Hills Drive between U.S. Highway 6 (US 6) and Iowa Highway 92 (IA 92), while providing improved connections to developments along Greenview Road, Steven Road, and Cottonwood Road. The project is intended to meet the following needs: Provide local transportation system continuity Support planned land development in Council Bluffs and Pottawattamie County Increase the capacity of existing roads to accommodate future traffic demands Improve emergency access. Build Alternative 3 was identified as the Selected Alternative after reviewing all the reasonable alternatives under consideration (including the No-Build Alternative) with respect to their ability to meet the project purpose and need, and provide optimum connectivity with reduced impact on current and future developments. The Selected Alternative is described in Section II of this ROD and in more detail in Section 2.8 Preferred Alternative of the FEIS. Appendix A includes a figure of the Selected Alternative. The remainder of this document addresses the reasons for identifying the Selected Alternative and comments received on the FEIS.

  • Chapter Four
    Chapter Four Habitats of Species of Greatest Conservation Need Required Element #2: Descriptions of the extent and condition of habitats and community types essential to conservation of species of greatest conservation need. Habitat availability, quantity, and quality are primary factors influencing the viability of wildlife populations. To protect and manage for species of greatest conservation need it is essential to identify the distribution of species within the state and the natural resources critical to their survival in and around occupied areas. Categorizing Iowa’s habitat types and the SGCN species that depend on them will aid the design of effective management practices that will directly benefit Iowa’s wildlife. Organizing Frameworks – Ecoregions and Watersheds In addition to hierarchical systems for classification of lifeforms (taxonomy) and habitat types, geographic classification frameworks are also used to organize natural resource management, research, and planning activities. Over the years, natural resource agencies have moved from using political (e.g., county or state) boundaries toward the use of more holistic, ecosystem-based (e.g., watershed or flyway) frameworks for planning and delivering conservation. Due to this shift in methodology, many potentially useful ecoregional classification systems have been developed. Using biotic and abiotic ecological principles and processes, numerous authors have developed hierarchical ecoregional classification systems for a range of geographical scales (Cleland et al 1997). The Iowa Wildlife Action Plan is intended to provide useful information to users of watershed- and ecoregional-based approaches, and to illustrate the complementary use of these frameworks. Previous iterations of the Plan used the Landform Regions of Iowa (Iowa Geologic Survey, Iowa DNR) as a coarse-scale geographic framework, and watershed boundaries for some finer-scale analyses.
