Go to http://wms.org/cme/cme.asp?whatarticle Objective.—To provide a 5-year longitudinal assessment of risk of acquiring disease from Sierra Nevada Wilderness area lakes and streams. This study examines the relative risk factors for harmful water microorganisms, using coliforms as an indicator. Methods.—Streams and lakes in the backcountry of Yosemite and Kings Canyon National Parks and neighboring wilderness areas were selected and water was analyzed each year over a 5-year period. A total of 364 samples from lakes or streams were chosen to statistically differentiate the risk cate- gories based on land usage, as follows: 1) areas rarely visited by humans (Wild), 2) human day-use- only areas (Day Hike), 3) areas used by backpackers with overnight camping allowed (Backpack), 4) areas primarily impacted by horses or pack animals (Pack Animal), and 5) cattle and sheep grazing tracts (Cattle).

My interlocutor had played a major role in efforts to get Congress to pass “cap and trade” legislation during 2009 and 2010.

  • Forwardahs Year in Review 2014
    MOVING FORWARDAHS YEAR IN REVIEW 2014 1 SCIENCES OF APPLIED HEALTH COLLEGE 1 We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence,therefore, is not an act but habit. – Aristotle A MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN As I reviewed this issue of Moving Forward, I was struck by several themes that seem to tie many of the stories together. The first is how life sometimes presents opportunities that, with effort and diligence, lead us along paths we hadn’t imagined taking. Dr. Karen Iler Kirk, the head of our Department of Speech and Hearing Science and the fourth Shahid and Ann Carlson Khan Professor in the College of Applied Health Sciences, began her professional career as a school speech-language pathologist. A fateful decision to join a research institute and a lot of hard work led her on a path to becoming one of the pioneering scholars in pediatric cochlear implantation. Dr. John Greenleaf, our 2014 Distinguished Alumni Award recipient, left Illinois with a bachelor’s degree in kinesiology, fully intending to pursue a career as a physical fitness educator. His decision to pursue an opportunity that presented itself and his dedicated effort led him to a career as a pioneering research scientist with NASA. Dr. Brad Hedrick couldn’t have known when he came to the College of Applied Health Sciences as a graduate student that it would lead to a longtime association with our Division of Disability Resources and Educational Services, as a graduate assistant, coach, and eventually its director. Thirty-seven years later, we celebrated his many achievements upon his retirement.
