From a planning perspective, this paper addresses a new format of retail found in China through a case study of Shenzhen City. The city has grown very fast in the last two decades from a small township of 60,000 people to a city of over 6 million. Dramatic economic growth and urbanization left planners behind, and a former industrial district turned into a commercial district within a few years of time in the late 1990s. This unplanned development pushed by market forces has shown some features commonly found in the evolution of 'high-street' in the West, while there are some unique features that are typically represented by a group of theme shopping complexes (TSC) in the district of Hua Qiang Bei (HQB). We argue that TSC as a special format of retail appeared in the world fastest growing city has its own reasons. They include (1) the lack of matured shopping center developers, (2) the lack of matured retail chains, (3) the uncertainty of government policy and regulations that resulted in short-term and fragmented leasing of space to small retail tenants, and (4) large and continuing demands from newly immigrated low-to-middle income working class. It is yet to be seen that this TSC format would continue and diffuse to other fast growing but less developed cities in China, or would be replaced by shopping malls soon when retain chains dominate.

Freshwater Aquarium Plants Profiles
Substrate Rooted Plants
Sagittaria subulata
Family: Alismataceae
Common Names: Dwarf Sagittaria, Dwarf Arrowhead
Origin and Habitat: Naturally occurs in South America and in the eastern United States; the US Department of Agriculture also lists it in Washington state, likely having been introduced. Found in freshwater and brackish water, in slow flowing rivers, streams, lagoons, and ponds.
Ideal position in aquarium
Mid-ground. In larger aquaria can also be used in the fore-ground especially near the sides or for effect next to standing bogwood. It can be used as a background plant if planted very thickly as it will then grow taller.
Lighting requirements
Moderate. More intense light may bring out reddish leaf apexes.
Slow to moderate
Minimum Tank Suggestion
5 or 10 gallon.
Water parameters for Dwarf Sagittaria
Soft to hard, acidic to basic, optimum temperature 18-28C/64-82F. It should manage in brackish water since it has been found in such habitats.
In appearance, this plant bears a close resemblance to the narrow-leaf form of another plant in the same family, the pygmy chain sword (Helanthium tenellum), and in the aquarium the two can easily be confused. The growth habits of both can be influenced by conditions in the aquarium such as light, nutrients, and in the case of Sagittaria in particular the density of the planting. In the writer's (Byron) aquarium containing both species, they appear identical with the only difference being the greater height of S. subulata.
The common name "Dwarf" may be somewhat misleading. The plant will normally attain 10-15cm (4-6 inches) in height; planted very close together, the leaves will be much taller, up to 60cm (24 inches) according to Kasselmann (2003) and others, some of whom also mention age and light as factors affecting the plant's height. The writer (Byron) has this plant easily attaining 12-15 inches when thickly planted under moderate light.
Moderate light is sufficient, but the plant does require good nutrients, especially iron but this must be balanced with the other nutrients either in the substrate or added to the water. A small-grain substrate (sand or fine gravel) is best, and this plant once settled will rapidly spread via runners in the same manner as the dwarf chain swords and Vallisneria species. It may send an inflorescence to the surface and flower, but flowering is more likely to occur with emersed growth.
The Alismataceae is a family of aquatic herbs containing 12 genera with about 80 species that are distributed in the tropical and subtropical regions of both hemispheres. Three genera of interest to aquarists occur in the Neotropics [=tropical regions in the Americas]: Sagittaria, Echinodorus and Helanthium. The species in these genera are quite similar in appearance, making it difficult for aquarists to differentiate between them. To add to the confusion, even within each species the plants can take on quite different leaf lengths depending upon the conditions in the aquarium. With a few exceptions that grow fully submersed, the plants are amphibious bog plants in their habitat, spending roughly half the year emersed when they flower, and half submersed during the flooded period.
The genus Sagittaria was erected in 1753 by Carl Linnaeus, the Swedish botanist, physician and zoologist whose classification of all living organisms led directly to the modern system of binomial nomenclature. The name is derived from the Latin sagitta [= arrow], referring to the arrow shape of the leaves; some species are distinctly arrowhead shaped, giving the genus its common English name "Arrowheads." The plants in this genus are characterized by having sagittate [=shaped like arrowheads] or hastate [triangular shape] leaves and white scapose flowers. The genus contains approximately 30 species or subspecies, most occurring in the Western Hemisphere (from the southern United States through Mexico and Central America and into much of South America) with some natural to Europe and Asia. The tubers of some species were an important food source of starch for the indigenous peoples of North America and Asia, and gave the plant the common name of "duck potato."
The species are all marsh plants, and only a very few have made their way into the aquarium hobby; several are more popular as outdoor pond plants. S. subulata is the most common in aquaria, and one sometimes sees S. platyphylla.
The subject species was originally named in 1753 by Linnaeus who placed it in the genus Alisma as Alisma subulatum. In 1871, Buchenau placed it in Sagittaria and the epithet changed gender to agree with that of the genus name. The species epithet refers to the submersed (subulate) leaves. The plant may be encountered under the name S. natans but this is a synonym.

Don't leave it to the machine
What you need to know about the GDPR stance on automated decision-making
For a long time, the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) was barely a blip on the radar for American companies. That changed on May 25 as many companies in the U.S. started to realize that the law's reach extends far beyond national boundaries.
So far, most of the conversation has revolved around marketing, with various thought leaders offering their input on what the GDPR will mean for things like building email lists and using targeted marketing.
But there's another aspect of the legislation that could have just as big an impact: automated decision-making. And it will affect everyone from banks and mortgage originators to insurance carriers and, yes, even marketers.
What does the GDPR say about automated decision-making?
The legislation addresses automated decision-making in Article 22. It applies to situations in which businesses use algorithms to make automated decisions that could have a significant impact on a person's life. Examples include things like loan or employment applications that make data-based decisions without human intervention. The goal is to give individuals the right to know how those decisions were made and to request a human review.
GDPR Working Parties -- groups charged with deciding what the legislation means -- have spent a lot of time trying to figure this out. That's resulted in a lot of legalese and haggling over particular words, but they've had a tough time pinning down what Article 22 will mean in real-world business situations.
Nonetheless, since the potential implications of Article 22 are so huge, all businesses that use automated-decision making need to be thinking about this. So even if I can't give you rock-solid answers at this point, I want to bring you up to speed on some of the discussions that have been taking place and the questions that still remain.
Does Article 22 grant consumers affected by automated decisions particular rights, or does it prohibit such decision-making entirely?
Some people think Article 22 prohibits automated decision-making (any decision based on algorithms without human involvement) altogether.
Others, however, think that, instead of prohibiting such decision-making, Article 22 provides consumers with a way to get more information about what data was used and how their particular data led to the decision they received. They also believe it gives consumers the right to human intervention.
What does that last part mean?
Good question. One interpretation is that the requirement to provide an explanation could be satisfied merely through providing the consumer with an overview of the algorithm itself. Others think it requires an explanation in terms that can be easily understood by average individuals who don't have a background in data analysis. That could look something like this:
"Our models use historical data to predict the likely outcome of giving a particular customer a loan. The data points we've found to be relevant are how often the customer has a negative checking account balance, how old they are, and whether they have children. Historical data shows that combinations of those factors tend to result in predictable outcomes, and that's what our algorithms calculate."
Alternatively, some think it requires an explanation of that individual's particular decision, identifying the exact data points that determined the outcome and explaining why those data points had the impact they did. Here's an example of that approach:"The factor that had the biggest impact on the decision was the number of days you've had a negative bank balance over the past six months. The tipping point is somewhere around 30 days, depending on other factors. Your account had a negative balance on 45 days over the past six months, and that's why your application was declined."
As far as "human intervention," there is disagreement there, too. Some experts say the law merely requires businesses to give consumers an opportunity to express their concerns to a human representative. Others take it further and believe the law gives consumers the right to appeal the automated decision and to have it made by a human instead.
What kind of decision qualifies as one that has a "significant impact" on a consumer?
This is another good question that hasn't been thoroughly answered yet. The Article 22 Working Party says that the decision must have the potential to significantly influence the circumstances, behavior, or choices of individuals.
Clearly, that would include things like automated decisions about bank loans, credit card applications, etc. But then there's that pesky word, "choices." What does it mean to limit a consumer's choices?
The Working Party has suggested that it could include things like targeted advertising, especially when using specific data points to present certain types of advertising. One example would be using things like a consistently low bank balance, job history, and ZIP code to present ads for a business that provides paycheck loans. That could be construed as influencing a consumer to consider such high-interest loans over other, more financially sustainable options.
The GDPR already requires businesses to get explicit consent before they can contact consumers with promotional materials. In this case, they'd likely have to get separate consent to use a consumer's personal data to determine which offers they receive.
Does the law apply only to the personal data of specific individuals?
No. Article 22 also addresses profiling, which the GDPR defines as:
In other words, businesses can collect data from multiple sources -- everything from social media posts to the Internet of Things. They can then group people according to certain commonalities -- age, race, income level, etc. -- and, from there, make predictions about how a particular individual is likely to behave.
Article 22 treats automated decisions made by profiling no differently than those based on a specific individual's data.
So…now what?
There are obviously still a lot of unanswered questions about how Article 22 should be interpreted and how it will be enforced. That puts a lot of organizations in the unenviable spot of having to make important business decisions without complete information.
However, I wouldn't recommend a "wait and see" approach. There are common-sense steps you can take now that will reduce your risk and demonstrate a good-faith effort toward compliance (something that can carry a lot of weight when it comes to such sweeping legislation).
Here are some things to consider doing now:
Compile simple explanations of your processes -- preferably with visuals -- and make them easily accessible to consumers.
Provide consumers with several easy ways to contact a human representative of your company.
Identify the people who will work with consumers who have questions or objections.
Clearly identify who, if anyone, has the authority to override an automated decision.
Test your algorithms to make sure they're working as expected and aren't generating results that don't make sense or that could be seen as discriminatory.
Conduct a cost/benefit analysis of changing your processes so that all decisions are reviewed by a human.
In addition, one of the most important things you can do right now is to monitor updates on the GDPR website, the UK's Information Commissioner's Office, CSO, Shoosmiths, and BHBIA. Most GDPR experts expect to see a lot more clarity on these issues once the law is in effect, so monitoring these sites will give you the insight you need to make good compliance decisions. And, if you need one-on-one guidance, I'll be happy to help, so please get in touch

The BMF Comicale Flip is my own handwriting. I wrote a lot of words and text, scanned them, made a choice of the letters and put the best of them in a font. With a simple script I found in my archive, I was able to realize a typeface that change randomly between different versions of the same glyphs. This allows to give text the lively impression of handwritten letters – without to painfully have to write them all by hand. BMF Comicale Flip was really helpfull during the work on my book "Mr. Typo und der Schatz der Gestaltung": not only I could write the text directly on the keyboard, but I could easily make changes and corrections without to spend to much time on them.
BMF Comicale Flip: different forms of the same letters overlapping.

Senior lecturer for the only university diploma in Proctology. I was born in Pontarlier, in the Haut Doubs, in Franche-Comté. I studied medecine in Besançon and I specialised in the proctology sector in Paris at Léopold bellan hospital.
Gastroenterologist by training, I have been working now in medico-surgical proctology in Besançon since 1978.
Our Pilot Center began in 1998 for new techniques concerning roctology surgery, and more particularly concerning all the stapling techniques.
We work in collaboration with the Ethicon, Covidien and Frankenman Laboratories for the Longo and Starr techniques as well as for the technique that I have named semi closed hemorroidectomy by circular stapling.
Now, I have extensive experience, with more than 9 000 medical interventions using the Milligan and Morgan technique, more than 4 000 using the Longo technique and around 900 using the Starr technique, indicated for static pelvic disorders for women.
With this experience, and all these surgical operations, I had the idea in 2008, to create a personal technique dedicated to hemorrhoid surgery, with the intention of decreasing the major problems encountered using the Milligan and Morgan and the Longo techniques.
It is a new, original and efficient technique, curing both haemorrhoid prolapsus and external haemorrhoids : I named this technique semi-closed hemorroidectomy by circuler stapling.
Of course, I have taken part in various studies concerning all these different techniques dealing with proctological surgery, as a member of the Société Nationale Française de Colo-Proctologie and of the Société Nationale Française de Gastro-Entérologie.
For several years, proctological surgery has been a center of excellence at the Polyclinique de Franche-Comté where I work. A lot of rankings found in news magazines show this.
To date I realized more than 2400 procedures.


January | 2016 | Arthur in the Garden.
Yesterday, 23 January2016, we had snow alternating with sleet. It continued all day, although I did make it to work I was one of the few who came in.
The electricity went off at the house about 7 pm so we watched a few videos on YouTube and read by candle light.
Throughout the night I heard what I thought were limbs breaking than falling to the ground. Unfortunately, in the morning I discovered what I was actually hearing was the tallest of my Timber Bamboo (Phyllostachys Vivax) breaking! The tallest were about 50 feet. The weight of the ice on the leaves was too much for the wood.
The younger and thinner culms were bent to the ground but not broken.
The smaller stems may straighten some but I will probably remove them during the winter and new growth will quickly replace them in the spring. The greenhouse in the pictures is about 10 feet tall to give you an idea of how tall the bamboo is.
So when there is no power at the house there is only one place to go and which usually has power: Cup A Joe!
We were lucky last night, Andy had made a very good French onion soup and we had finished eating before the electricity went off!
At least my belly was warm and full in the dark under three blankets!
The weather has finally become more winter-like. After weeks of temps in the 60s and nights in the 50s, last night finally reached a low of 32f.
The yard needs one more cleaning to get those last leaves but it has rained for several days and everything is too wet. I did go outside with Gus and even moved the waste container to use to move the leaves to the garden but than decide I would just cook something hot instead.
1) On medium high heat melt 1/8 cup butter in a Dutch oven. Add the onions.
2) Once the onions have softened and browned alittle add the two cloves of garlic which have been diced and add the tablespoon of curry power and a teaspoon of turmeric.
3) Stir well to coat the onions and cook about a minute. Your kitchen should smell like an Indian restaurant now.
Add about a cup of vegetable both to deglaze the pot. Use your wooden spoon to scrap the carmelized bits of onion off the bottom.
4) Add the remainder of the broth and bring to a rolling boil and add the potatoes which have been cut into bite-sized pieces. Reduce to medium high heat and cover with a lid. It should be a gentle boil.
5) In 15 to 20 minutes, check the largest potato to see if it is done. You will also see small bits of potato floating around. It's done!
I also graded one potatoe to have a hash brown on the side. I think this fulfills my daily starch requirements and may get me through the cold day of exploring the city!
Do you hear that sound? It's the sound of all the unwanted Christmas gifts and decorations being left at the thrift stores! Onward!

Vodotrysk je zařízení, ze kterého je velkým tlakem vytlačována voda a na konci ústí z trysky ven. Tryskající voda zde má především estetickou funkci. Vodotrysky bývají součástí zejména fontán, kašen, zahradních a parkových jezírek i domácích osvěžovačů vzduchu. Jsou častým prvkem zahradní architektury používaný v sadovnické tvorbě.

Přírodní vodotrysky
Vzácně se lze setkat se zajímavým přírodním jevem, kterým jsou přírodní vodotrysky. Obvykle se nalézají v místech přirozených vývěrů spodních vod. Takovéto vodotrysky obvykle označujeme slovem gejzír. Může se jednat o přírodní podzemní vodu s vývěrem studené vody nebo o vývěr termálních pramenů např. v místech s bohatou sopečnou činností apod.

Příklady
 Kiama Blow Hole - přírodní vodotrysk u australského města Kiama;
 Vodotrysk u obce Rajecká Lesná na Slovensku v pohoří Strážovské vrchy;
 Gejzír Herľany na východním Slovensku asi 28 km východně od Košic;
 termální vývěry vod na Islandu.

Vodotrysky vzniklé v důsledku vodovodních poruch
Velké vodotrysky a gejzíry mohou také někdy nechtěně vzniknout v důsledku poruchy či havárie na vodovodním potrubí, kdy pitná voda nebo užitková voda tryská otvorem v zemi pod velkým tlakem ven.

Ruto says Jubilee-ODM political clash in Wajir will be peaceful

By JEREMIAH WAKAYA, NAIROBI, Kenya, Feb 22 – Deputy President William Ruto on Friday allayed fears of resurgence in high-octane politicking after the ruling party named a candidate for the upcoming Wajir West parliamentary by-election.
Ruto, who presented former Wajir West lawmaker Mohamed Kolosh with a Jubilee Party ticket to defend the seat in a mini-ballot set for April 25, said the governing party was committed to peaceful campaigns devoid of name-calling.
Kolosh decamped from Raila Odinga's Orange Democratic Party (ODM) which had initially sponsored him to Parliament.
"We want a peaceful election. We're committed as a party to a peaceful, decent election devoid of name-calling and abuses," he said.
The DP said the campaign for the Wajir West parliamentary seat will be centered on Jubilee Party's commitment to development.
"Our focus and that of our candidate will be on the policies of the Jubilee Administration and the ideas we have to take the country forward and less of other issues that have ordinarily inform elections in the past," said Ruto.
Kolosh, a first-time lawmaker who decamped after his victory in the 2017 parliamentary election was nullified by the Supreme Court last month, said he was optimistic that he would retain the seat.
The legislator, who lost his seat on January 18 following a successful petition by Abdirahman Ibrahim of the Kenya African National Union (KANU), said his election was nullified because the poll agency mishandled the polling exercise.
"In the spirit of democracy we're going to have very healthy competition. Let my competitors read the mood on the ground. We'll win this seat," he said.
In its decision nullifying the Wajir West election, the Supreme Court cited irregularities in a number of polling centres including Qara.
Justice Francis Tuiyot of the High Court had in a ruling rendered in March found results in two polling stations were manipulated in a deliberate attempt to suppress the will of voters.
In Qara, for instance, the court found the number of votes cast to have exceeded 162 – the number of registered voters in at the station.

The Court of Appeal later overturned the High Court decision, restoring Kolosh's win, a judgment that KANU's Ibrahim successfully challenged at the Supreme Court.
ODM has named Mohammed Yussuf Elmi its candidate for the Wajir West parliamentary by-election setting the stage for a bruising battle between politicians allied to Ruto and those pledging allegiance to Odinga.
The Wajir mini-poll is the first election to be contested by Jubilee and ODM post the March 9, 2018, truce between President Uhuru Kenyatta and Odinga following months of political tension.

Downtown Los Angeles has seen a sharp rise in crime this year as gentrification changes the area, putting hip apartments at odds with the neighborhoods poverty and homelessness.
The Los Angeles Times reports that overall, violent crime in downtown, skid row and Chinatown increased more than 57 percent through the end of August, compared with the same period last year. Property offenses increased nearly 25 percent.
Residents say as more businesses invest in downtown and people buy condos, the city needs to handle crime in the neighborhood.
The Los Angeles Police Department says they are increasing patrols in the area, but that many of the problems would be better helped with more housing and other social services that police cannot provide.

The History of the Diocese and its pastoral path
Noto was erected as Episcopalian Church and the Chiesa Madre as Cathedral by Pope Gregory XVI through the bull "Gravissimum sane munus" the May 15, 1844. With this act, Gregory XVI gave substance to the commitment of his predecessor Pius VII which was proposed to increase the number of the dioceses in Sicily, to facilitate the pastoral service of the bishops.
In fact, the bishop of Noto had been hoped since the XII century, when Isimbardo Morengia, made Lord of Noto by Frederick II of Swabia, founded on 20 August 1212, with the dowry of four fiefdoms, the Cistercian Monastery of Santa Maria dell'Arco, asking then its transformation in Episcopalian see. The emperor wanted to agree the wishes of Morengia, but the troubles of the Swabian House and later the turbulence of the Angevins obstructed the project to make Noto the Episcopalian see. Awarded of the title of "City" by Alfonso Magnanimous on December 27, 1432, in a time of particular prestige, so that they designed a Viceroy in Niccolò Speciale, Noto asked the bull to become headed diocese on June 14, 1433 to Pope Eugene IV and on January 22, 1450 to Nicholas V thanking the involvement of the abbot of Noto, Giovanni Aurispa, his apostolic secretary. The noble Rinaldo Sortino got royal letters in favour of the new bishopric in 1451 and in 1453, but Monsignor Paolo Santapan Aragonese, bishop of Syracuse, cancelled through the Holy See everything, because the pastor of Noto was also the canonical Cantor of the Dome of Syracuse assigned by the Bishop Thomas Erbes in the Diocesan Synod of 1388.
Other initiatives were promoted in the sixteenth, seventeenth and eighteenth century. The arguments in favour of the new Episcopalian see were different; there was also the presence of two prestigious centres of spirituality: the Benedictine Abbey of Saint Lucia del Mendola and the Cistercian Abbey of Santa Maria dell'Arco; they were considered at the time as significant ecclesiastical places. The city of Noto was also head quarter as the other two existing, Messina and Mazara, headquarter of bishops yet. "Our Reign, named Valle is divided into three separated provinces; with this order it has established, the Episcopal Locations of Val Demone and Val di Mazzara in their respective capital cities, as Messina and Mazzara; so, therefore, for that seems to require that the third Valle yet a third Episcopal see in its capital city, is being precisely the town of Noto, a Normans Principles constitution" (cif. peroration of 1783).
The bishops of Syracuse obstacle always the realization of that desire, because of the Diocese of Noto would stretch territory. Only in mid-1800 Noto concreted the old desire. As a result of the riots that took place in Syracuse during the cholera epidemic, in fact, Ferdinand II Bourbon asked the transfer of the province in Noto. In that occasion King Ferdinand II asked to the Holy See to found the Diocese of Noto, also taking advantage of the fact that the bishop's see of Syracuse was vacant at the death of Monsignor Giuseppe Amorelli on 13 December 1840. In the new diocese, in addition to Noto were granted, removing them to Syracuse, the municipality of Avola, Buccheri, Buscemi, Cassaro, Ferla, Giarratana, Modica, Pachino, Palazzolo Acreide, Pozzallo, Portopalo, Rosolini, and Scicli Spaccaforno (now Ispica).
On 24 November 1844 the first Bishop of Noto, Monsignor Giuseppe Menditto, took possession in the Cathedral. Monsignor Vincenzo Marolda, bishop of Trapani and delegate of the Holy See read the Bull of erection and the Papal Decrees.
In 1856 the Holy See with the decree "Peculiaribus" obtained by the government of Naples a downsizing of the powers of the court of monarchy in favour of the bishops. It placed at this stage the first three bishops of Noto: Giuseppe Menditto (1844-1849), Giovanni Battista Naselli (1851-1853) and Mario Mirone (1853-1864). With the Vatican Council I of 1870, in fact, is declined the regal ecclesiology and stated the Roman, while the institutional ties of the Church of Sicily are reinforcing with the Vatican Curia. The rift between the Italian government and the Vatican, however, prevents the appointment of new bishops in the Sicilian vacant see, because the Holy See wants to avoid that the new government claims the right to put forward the candidates, that means damage the right of the Church in the collation of the bishop's freedom. And Noto for eight years was vacant seat: from 1864 to 1872. Only thanks to the law of Guarantees of 1871, was named the new bishop: Monsignor Benedict La Vecchia (1872-75).
Despite an acridity anti clerical – that has its peak in 1882 at the sixth centenary of the Sicilian Vespers and that puts the Sicilian bishops in a position of not being able to use the State for the observance of moral precepts and Catholic – the pastoral freedom is guaranteed. In their collective letter at the conclusion of the Sicilian Bishops' Conference, the bishops denounce the evils that threaten the religious and moral compactness of the island. The Bishop of Noto, Archbishop Giovanni Blandini (1875-1913) – precursor of democracy and renewal in Catholicism in Italy – is defined "pearl of the Sicilian bishop" by Leo XIII, who gave him the archiepiscopal pallium "ad personam" in June 25, 1900.
About in 1910 are preferred forms of organization of Catholic laity with prominent religious formation as the Catholic Youth and oratories. Pope St. Pius X promotes catechism and relaunches good press. In the full war, in 1916, is held in Tindari the Episcopal Conference of Sicily, being secretary the bishop of Noto, Monsignor Giuseppe Vizzini (1913-1935). For him, the religious reform is possible on a spiritual level. The documents of the Prime Sicilian Plenary Council (Palermo, 1920) and the First Diocesan Synod (Noto, 5-7 October 1923) are the fruit of his juridical skills.
In 1955, when Pope Pius XII established the diocese of Ragusa through the bull "Quam quam est" the town of Giarratana passed to the new dioceses, while Palazzolo Acreide, Buccheri, Buscemi, Cassaro and Ferla, small mountain towns of Syracuse, returned to the diocese of Syracuse.
In this juncture is the episcopate of Bishop Angelo Calabretta (1936-1970), that is characterized by supernatural deep roots. The silence of prayer is the secret of his active success episcopate. His successor, Monsignor Salvatore Nicolosi (1970-1998), has increased the reality "Church" in all dimensions: from the evangelization to the communion, from the God worship to the service of man. He realized in 1988 the twinning with the young diocese of Butembo-Beni (Democratic Republic of Congo) and celebrates the Second Diocesan Synod (1995-1996).
Among the many achievements of the fruitful service of the Episcopal Bishop of Giuseppe Malandrino (1998-2007), however, we remember the permanent popular Mission, as result of the Great Jubilee of 2000, the pastoral visit (2003-2006) and the successful reopening of the rebuilt Cathedral, June 18, 2007.

In the late summer of 2003, a forest fire erupted in the dry forests of the Cascade Mountains near Sisters, Oregon. Over the course of the next 5 weeks, the B and B Complex fire would scorch over 90,000 acres of forestlands before it was contained.
The raw power of fire left its indelible mark on the landscape, and upon me: it was apocalyptic, bizarre, powerful, spooky, surreal. I spent an artist residency wandering this charred landscape for two weeks; it left me stilled and in awe.
Metaphor abounds here: beauty from ashes; life and death; the ravages of war; creation and the fall; body and environment; phoenix rising. Without attempting to create literal interpretations of such themes, I did want to explore the juxtaposition of bringing living people into this environment of death and decay. To make surreal work in a surreal place. And so we did.
