"Queering Language"
Adolfo Aranjuez, Quinn Eades
Curated by: Eamonn-Moriarty-Gray and Lilli Lovegrove
Opening: Sunday 18 August, 1pm
Dates: 18 August - 25 August, 2019
Hosted by Eamonn Moriarty-Gray and Lilli Lovegrove through Bus Projects, is a two-day participatory public program. We aim to explore the influence of language in shaping social and creative spaces, practices, individuals, relationships and institutions. Queering Language will particularly focus upon the inclusion or exclusion of people from LGBTQIA+ communities, and the intersection of language and being queer.
The marginalization of LGBTQIA+ individuals occurs through repeated aggressions of language; from explicit slurs to erasure. This is common throughout social spaces in our communities, from the exclusive gendering of bathrooms to the lumping of diverse individuals within reductive labels of commonality. We hope to unpack some of the structural inequalities surrounding gender, particularly the problematic and harmful ways these inequalities manifest it's way through language.
This program will be set over two consecutive Sundays, the 18th of August and the 25th of August.
Sunday, 18th August:
We welcome community education organisation, Undercurrent, to facilitate a workshop engaging participants in investigating the intersections of language, space, gender, and identity. This educational workshop will create a framework for these concepts that exists outside the artist's perspective and focuses on social change.
This session will feature an artist-led group discussion, hosted by creatives Adolfo Aranjuez and Quinn Eades, exploring creative practices informed by the 'queering of language'. The diverse pedagogical approach looks to include participants in a mutual exchange of knowledge, aiming to create an environment for reciprocal discussion.
Please note: These workshops are separate events and do not require you to attend both.
Adolfo Aranjuez is editor of film and media periodical Metro and, formerly, editor-in-chief of sexuality and gender magazine Archer. He is also a freelance writer, speaker and dancer. His nonfiction and poetry have appeared in Meanjin, Right Now, Screen Education, The Manila Review, Cordite and elsewhere, and he has worked with Melbourne Writers Festival, Jaipur Literature Festival, Midsumma, ABC TV, the Melbourne and Adelaide film festivals, The Wheeler Centre, Federation Square, Multicultural Arts Victoria, NIDA and Dance Massive, among others. He is on the UNESCO Melbourne City of Literature strategic advisory group and was a MIFF 2018 Critics Campus mentor.
Quinn Eades is a writer, researcher, editor, gutter philosopher and poet, whose book Rallying was awarded the 2018 Mary Gilmore Award for best first book of poetry. He is the author of all the beginnings: a queer autobiography of the body, and is a Tracey Banivanua Mar Research Fellow at La Trobe University, Melbourne.
We acknowledge the rightful custodians of the land on which this event takes place; the Wuruendjeri people and elders past, present, and emerging of the Kulin nations. We pay our respects to their ongoing connection to the lands and waters that we operate on and acknowledge that sovereignty was never ceded.

A2 Technologies Receives Research Contract From The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
February 19, 2009 EPR Aerospace News
A2 Technologies announces today that it has received a three year research contract from the Federal Aviation Administration to study the effectiveness of Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) for determining damage to composite materials used in civilian aircraft applications.
The project will focus on three main tasks. A2 Technologies' hand-held Exoscan FTIR system will be used to develop the methodology for determining, thermal, UV and chemical damage to composites. Once this is developed, it will be used to detect the full extent of damage in composite panels and to monitor and aid in bonding and repair processes. These methods will then be implemented to enable the Exoscan system to be used by qualified non-destructive evaluation personnel in field trials. Collaborating on this project with A2 Technologies is The Center for Composite Materials at the University of Delaware.
Jon Frattaroli, CEO of A2 Technologies states "We developed Exoscan as an easy-to-use, high performance, hand-held FTIR spectrometer in order to expand the use of this widely used analytical technique to non-laboratory applications. We are delighted that the FAA has seen the potential value of FTIR spectroscopy as a non-destructive analysis technology for use in aircraft manufacturing and maintenance. We are excited to work with our outstanding collaborators to prove the value of this technology."
For more information, please contact Dr. Alan Rein, Vice President Business Development, A2 Technologies at 201-909-8824 or arein@a2technologies.com or visit www.a2technologies.com

Victoria's Blog
May 24, 2017 October 17, 2017 sarahturLeave a comment
Now at over 18 months without the restraints of being a full-time drinker, 'just' wine, I wanted to update Harrogate Sanctuary, Sarah most especially on how life has been liberated from the cage vino it put me in. It was initially and invisible cage, even gilded I thought, but the more I progressed, until now, just celebrated my 45th Birthday, it was rotten and vile. Did I see that? Of course, I did, but it still wasn't enough to stop me.
I read websites, looked at stories, watched conversations on 'sober sites' whilst supping, not sipping my weapon of choice. I had breaks, weeks of them, like being on a destructive merry go round, but hey I was no different from my colleagues, many friends, and family. The only difference perhaps was that I was latterly hiding the second, maybe third bottle a night. I wasn't, I KNEW about it. I tried other methods, AA just awful experience for me, local services where no one seemed to want to talk about the future, just the dreadful grim past, and that somehow they were diseased and total failures.
So, through gritted and scared teeth I contacted The Sanctuary, and it is very difficult to describe how Sarah works, suffice to say, she is simply the best at this for women of my demographic.
I have thought of having a drink, been to lots of events and parties, but she rewired me, it is the only way I can explain it. There is nothing cultish or even pressurised with her, how she manages the long hours, the instant response, day and night with her clients is remarkable.
I have lost over 20kg, I keep fit, I have no shame, and at the same time I have no judgement. I have no desire to people please, I look after me and mine, and of course will and am more than capable stepping into any crisis, also day and night!
There is a financial cost, but again, unless you have gone through the unique Six Week Programme with Sarah you really have no idea how reasonable her charge is. I have saved over £8000.00, and it is all going towards special rewards, good treats for those I love.
She is priceless, and if you have any doubt, then you should meet her, it is just such a shame there are not more passionate and caring professionals in this area like her.
Costs of Alcohol vs Tobacco
May 8, 2017 sarahturLeave a comment
Smoking has now become, unfashionable, unacceptable, harmful and very non PC. Drinking, however, and generally more than the safe guidelines, seems to have gone in reverse, most especially wine, coupled with age, the over 45s, as the young are drinking far less. It is fashionable, acceptable, normal for this age group, and everywhere. As a long term non-drinker, I feel more and more stigmatised for not being on the sauce than I do for once drinking too much of it.
But I am at a loss to understand why there is not more comparison between the costs to both the NHS and productivity, let alone the emotional cost caused by alcohol misuse? I know that cigarettes and tobacco wreak havoc, and that one cigarette can be potentially harmful, but so can one glass of wine for many millions too, because it rarely stops there.
There are plenty of statistics which if they are to be believed, show that alcohol harms, to oneself and others is dramatically more costly.
For example, the BMA quote that smoking costs the NHS 2.7 billion, and 2.5 billion to the wider economy, sick leave and lost productivity. There are no quotes for any crime costs because you are highly unlikely smash someone's face in after smoking 20 Silk Cut.
Alcohol Concern quote that alcohol costs the NHS 3.5 billion, crime 11 billion, lost productivity, 10 billion. These I know are under estimated, because the majority of women that I see have never been seen by a GP as a direct result of their drinking, only the symptoms of it, for they are too frightened to tell the real facts about their drinking habits. 90% of these women are Mothers, wives, partners, professionals, and all admit to me in some way being irresponsible because of their previous routines with the ugly juice. 27% of them came from the health sector last year.
I loathe the nanny state, love the idea of all of us being able to make our own choices, but when there is so much skewed propaganda there is a real sense of unfairness to me. Now cigarettes are un-branded and black, but by the same token there are so few steps being taken to address the way we use alcohol, or at least the potential harms that are hidden in the cheeky little numbers so adeptly lined up in big supermarkets or casually placed on counter tops of virtually every corner shop or garage. There is no listing of ingredients, no warnings of big ugly diseased livers, cancerous breasts, not a hint of harm.
If I was unable to care for myself, I would far rather trust a smoker than a drinker to look after me, and that goes for my loved ones too.
To add to the madness, all smokers who quit are congratulated, and giving a huge pat on the back, whereas for most of us who call time on wine o'clock, are accused of being dull, boring, and weak willed, just because we have decided that alcohol doesn't suit us anymore.
No matter how defensive of, or in love with alcohol this country may be, surely this must be the time to strike a fair balance.
Sarah's Blog for The Sanctuary
Working with Sarah and with the Harrogate Sanctuary has been a life changing experience. As soon I had the first phone call with Sarah she put me at ease and did not judge me. She showed empathy and compassion and quickly helped me realise I wanted to make this journey with her. I have had no regrets on embarking on the programme. It is so encouraging knowing Sarah is at the end of the phone or quick to respond to emails. This experience has changed me as a person as it has not only made me question the way I was using alcohol but also made me question my whole life. Sarah has so much experience and wisdom and was always ready to offer guidance and support in a non-patronising way. I finished the programme last week and although I miss the daily support that Sarah provided she has enabled me to continue living a healthy and alcohol free life by myself. The Harrogate Sanctuary is an empowering experience and I feel lucky that I have had the honour of guidance and support from Sarah. This should be available on the NHS!
Baby boomers warned over alcohol intake as hospital admissions soar
Alcohol-related hospital admissions in England have increased by 64% in a decade and are at their highest ever level, prompting experts to warn that baby boomers are continuing to risk their health through frequent and excessive drinking.
There were an estimated 1.1m admissions where alcohol was the primary or secondary issue in 2015/16, compared with 670,000 in 2005/06, according to NHS Digital data published on Wednesday.
Separate data from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) for England shows people aged 45 and over are frequently drinking at more hazardous levels.
Married and cohabiting couples are more likely than single people to consume alcohol on five or more days a week, though they are slightly less likely to binge drink.
Surveys found 60% of women aged 45 to 64 and 69% of men of the same age had drunk alcohol in the last week – the highest proportions of any age group.
Prof Sir Ian Gilmore, a liver doctor and chair of the Alcohol Health Alliance UK, said the figures proved the UK continued to have a dysfunctional relationship with alcohol.
He said: "We know that over the long term, rates of binge drinking are falling and more people are choosing to abstain from alcohol. Worryingly, however, these trends do not appear big enough to stop alcohol harm from continuing to rise, and the sharp increase in alcohol-related hospital admissions over the last few years means hundreds of thousands more people each year are experiencing the misery associated with harmful alcohol consumption."
Dr Tony Rao, co-chair of the Older People's Substance Misuse working group at the Royal College of Psychiatrists, said: "These figures show that alcohol abuse is not a 'young person problem'. While the rest of the population reduces its alcohol intake, it is very concerning that baby boomers are drinking at a similar rate as before and are exceeding recommended guidelines."
The ONS data also shows that the proportion of adults who say they drink alcohol is at the lowest level for more than a decade.
The trend has been largely driven by an increase in the proportion of younger people abstaining, but there has been no decline in the proportion of over-65s drinking, and they are the age group most likely to have consumed alcohol on five or more occasions in the week before they were interviewed.
https://interactive.guim.co.uk/charts/embed/may/2017-05-03T16:50:49/embed.html
Such regular drinking is more than three time more likely among over-65s than in the 16-24 age group, the data shows.
Alcohol is linked to more than 60 illnesses and diseases including heart disease, liver disease, cancer and dementia. Hospital admissions due to liver disease have gone up 57% over the last decade, and the number of people diagnosed with alcohol-related cancer has risen by 8%, according to the AHA. The World Cancer Research Fund has said that if nobody drank alcohol in the UK, 21,000 cases of cancer could be prevented each year, including nearly 12,000 cases of breast cancer.
NHS Digital cautions that a narrower measure of alcohol-related hospital admissions is more reliable for tracking changes over time than the broad measure – which the 1.1 million figure relates to – because it is less affected by improvements in recording of secondary diagnoses. But even under the narrow measure, hospital admissions have risen by 22% since 2005/06, to 339,000.
The ONS data shows that 7.8 million people admit to binge drinking – defined for men as consuming more than eight units and for women more than six units – on their heaviest drinking day.
Men are more likely to drink than women and to binge drink. Higher earners, on £40,000 and above annually, are more likely to be frequent drinkers and to binge drink than the lowest earners.
Gilmore said: "The data released today should be sobering reading for whoever wins the upcoming general election, and we would urge the next government to make tackling alcohol harm an immediate priority to save lives, reduce harm, and reduce the pressure on the NHS."
The Alcohol Information Partnership, which is funded by global drinks companies, said binge drinking and harmful drinking had declined by 17% and 23% respectively since 2005.

Q: Child component inside .map function display all children instances I am building a website that allows a user to create a job opening, assign to it different requirements and delete it.
I have two main components:

*

*HRdashboard is the parent component in which all the job openings are listed.

*MyOpeningCard is the card that contains information of a single job opening. It comes from the .map function in the parent component:
HRdashboard
function HRdashboard({changeAuthLoginHR}) {
const [HRuser, setHRuser] = React.useState([]);
const [openings, setOpenings] = React.useState([]);

useEffect( ()=> {

    let unmountedOpenings = false
    async function getAllOpenings(){
        let response = await  axios("http://www.localhost:3000/api/v1/openings");
        if(!unmountedOpenings)
            setOpenings(response.data)
    }

    let jwt = window.localStorage.getItem('jwt')
    let result = jwtDecode(jwt)
    setHRuser(result)
    changeAuthLoginHR()
    getAllOpenings()
    return () => {
        unmountedOpenings = true
    }
    }, [],
)

return(

        <Container style={{marginTop: "50px"}}>
            <Row>
                    {openings.map(opening =>
                        <Col>
                            <MyOpeningCard key={opening.id} opening={opening} /> # Here is where the child is
                        </Col>
                    )}
            </Row>
        </Container>

)

}

MyOpeningCard
function MyOpeningCard({opening}) {

    return(

            <Card style={{ width: '18rem', marginTop: "15px"}}>
                <Card.Body>
                    <Card.Title>{opening.title}</Card.Title>
                    <Card.Subtitle className="mb-2 text-muted">Requirements: </Card.Subtitle>
                    <Card.Text>
                        {opening.requirements[0].requirements.map(requirement =>
{requirement}
)}
                    </Card.Text>

                    <Card.Link href="#" onClick={console.log(opening.id)}>Click Here</Card.Link> # If I click here, it console.log all the IDs, not only this opening id.

                </Card.Body>
            </Card>

    )

}

My question:
If I click on Click Here in my child component, it triggers console.log(opening.id).
I was expecting to see in console only the opening.id of the Job Opening I click. However, I see all the ids of the openings.
Why is it so?

A: Because your onClick prop is calling a function which immediately runs the same time your child component is rendered, without even clicking, for all the child components.
onClick={console.log(opening.id)}

So, when you use the .map() method, all of your <MyOpeningCard /> components get rendered, each of them immediately calling console.log() again and again, hence you see all the ids logged in the console.
You should pass a callback, instead, to the onClick prop which will be executed only when a click happens.
Change it to
onClick={() => { console.log(opening.id) }}

A: Parentheses after a function name executes the function.
even-though you didn't mean to do that, that's why wrapping it with an additional Arrow Function is needed, it happens as:
() => console.log('something'), this Arrow Function is not going to be invoked until the click actually occurs.
while if you pass console.log this way -no parenthesses-, it'll be logging the whole Event only upon the Click event occurrence.

RAY: Some time ago I used the puzzler regarding the man who was responsible for introducing to America the car radio. Bill Lear was his name. From Lear Jet fame. And the radio was called the Moto-Rola. Motor. Ola.
RAY: It turns out, Bill Lear also invented another car related device that was popular in the seventies. In fact, the car I owned had one and it was something you would find in the dashboard back then, but you'd hardly ever find one on a car now.
The question is simple: What was it?
TOM: It was an eight-track player.
RAY: There you go! For those youngsters in the audience, an eight-track player was one continuous loop of tape. It would keep playing over and over and over again. And there were eight tracks that you could skip around. It was brilliant.
TOM: I don't understand what happened to the eight-track. That was a great technology.
RAY: They jammed up all the time. I threw away all my tapes.
TOM: You never knew what was on any of those tracks. You never knew what was actually happening when you pressed the button. If you tried to find something you had just listened to, it would take you a week.
TOM: The winner this week is Ed Mazurek from Mebane, North Carolina. Congratulations, Ed.

« Obama Administration Plans Major Ammunition Ban | Two men arrested in Copenhagen tied to terrorist attack »
NY Times discovers that Saddam did have WMDs after all
By Thomas Lifson
President Bush "lied" about Iraq's WMDs – thus goes the article of faith among liberals, endlessly repeated by the likes of Ron Fournier and Jon Stewart as a kind of progressive catechism. Except that it is a libel, as even the New York Times indirectly acknowledges today.
C.J. Chivers and Eric Schmitt write:
The Central Intelligence Agency, working with American troops during the occupation of Iraq, repeatedly purchased nerve-agent rockets from a secretive Iraqi seller, part of a previously undisclosed effort to ensure that old chemical weapons remaining in Iraq did not fall into the hands of terrorists or militant groups, according to current and former American officials.
The extraordinary arms purchase plan, known as Operation Avarice, began in 2005 and continued into 2006, and the American military deemed it a nonproliferation success. It led to the United States' acquiring and destroying at least 400 Borak rockets, one of the internationally condemned chemical weapons that Saddam Hussein's Baathist government manufactured in the 1980s but that were not accounted for by United Nations inspections mandated after the 1991 Persian Gulf war.
Note that despite the firestorm of slander the Bush administration endured over its "lies" on WMD, the president never acted to declassify the information on the CIA buyback program, and as a result today it is an article of faith on the left that he lied us into war.
At the time of the invasion of Iraq, there was no way to know that:
These munitions were remnants of an Iraqi special weapons program that was abandoned long before the 2003 invasion,
they turned up sporadically during the American occupation in buried caches, as part of improvised bombs or on black markets.
American Thinker reported on the WMD evidence found in Iraq 11 years ago.
The CIA's program appears to have put at risk soldiers who were not warned of the risks they faced in handling these potent weapons:
Not long after Operation Avarice had secured its 400th rocket, in 2006, American troops were exposed several times to other chemical weapons. Many of these veterans said that they had not been warned by their units about the risks posed by the chemical weapons and that their medical care and follow-up were substandard, in part because military doctors seemed unaware that chemical munitions remained in Iraq.
In some cases, victims of exposure said, officers forbade them to discuss what had occurred. The Pentagon now says hundreds of other veterans reported on health-screening forms that they believed they too had been exposed during the war.
Aaron Stein, an associate fellow at the Royal United Services Institute, said the belated acknowledgment of a chemical-rocket purchases, as well as the potentially worrisome laboratory analysis of the related sarin samples, raised questions about the military's commitment to the well-being of those it sent to war.
We have been fed a line of bull over Saddam and WMDs.

Civil society raises concern over RCEP negotiations
The free trade agreement will cover a large range of issues—trade in goods, agriculture, services, investment and intellectual property
Last Updated: Wednesday 20 April 2016
As the 12th round of trade negotiations for the RCEP commence in Perth (Australia) from April 22, several civil society organisations in India have raised concerns around transparency and possible negative impacts on access to medicines, tax policy, investor rights and farmers access to seeds.
The Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) has been under negotiation since 2012 between sixteen governments in the Asia and Pacific region—the ten ASEAN countries plus Australia, China, Japan, Korea, New Zealand and India.
The RCEP, once concluded, will be the world's largest trading bloc, with its own set of rules on a broad spectrum of issues such as trade in goods, agriculture, services, investment, competition, intellectual property and other areas of economic and technical cooperation. Thus the extent of its coverage both in terms of the range of substantive issues and the number of people's whose lives and livelihoods it impacts is unprecedented. This mega free trade agreement (FTA) is expected to be concluded later this year.
Civil society is concerned about the lack transparency. Speakers at the press conference emphasised it was critical that all participating member countries fully disclosed their positions and relevant documents are shared with affected constituencies. Further, they demanded that negotiators should brief civil society before and after the talks.
Decisions by the Central Information Commission (CIC) in India require that relevant documents be made public before a policy is finalised.
Access to medicines
Senior Advocate and Former UN Special Rapporteur on right to health, Anand Grover, from Lawyers Collective said that the flexibilities employed in Indian Patent Law are sought to be done away in the RCEP. 'Doing so will make drugs unavailable and affordable to not just the poorest of patients but also to middle and upper middle class patients, not only in India but also other developed and developing nations. India must stand firm to ensure RCEP provisions do not agree to TRIPS+ and/or TPP provisions', he added.
Corporations are regularly using investor to state dispute settlement (ISDS) courts to avoid paying their legitimate taxes, Forum Against FTAs remarked in a statement. Corporations have sued countries ranging from India to Romania in over 40 tax-related disputes and, in some instances, have successfully challenged and lowered their tax bills.
V Lakshmi, regional secretary for Asia and Pacific, Public Services International stated corporate tax evasion is now a serious public concern, worldwide. Tax breaks cost developing countries as much as $138bn a year, money that is much needed for healthcare and other critical public services. The fact that multinational companies would be able to challenge and undermine fair tax systems under RCEP is testament to the terrifying extent of the corporate grab embedded in this toxic trade deal, Lakshmi added.
India is against the demands from developed countries for higher levels of IP protection. The country's domestic legislation—Protection of Plant Varieties and Farmers' Rights Act, 2001—provides freedom to over their seeds. Availability of their own seeds and the continuance of seed freedoms is a concern for small scale farmers and seed collectors.
"We believe that India can stay strong and re-think its strategy for RCEP, while staying away from TPP-like agreements. Any attempts to isolate India to push for more trade will have grave consequences for sustainable futures of peoples not only in India, but also in the region," said a statement issued by Forum Against FTAs.

Die Elektrolokomotiven 161 BE der Compagnie du chemin de fer Paris-Lyon-Méditerranée, später 1ABBA1 3600 der SNCF, waren Güterzuglokomotiven für 1500 V Gleichstrom. Die Lokomotiven waren dem Depot Chambéry zugeteilt und wurden auf der Nordrampe der Mont-Cenis-Bahn eingesetzt, bevor sie 1973 ausrangiert wurden.

Geschichte
Die Lokomotiven wurden kurz nach der Erprobung der 161 AE 1 für den Einsatz auf der Maurienne-Strecke bestellt. Im Gegensatz zur Versuchslokomotive weisen die 161 BE eine geänderte Übersetzung auf und die Zahnräder des Antriebes sind ungefedert ausgeführt. Die Höchstgeschwindigkeit beträgt deshalb nur 80 km/h im Vergleich zu den 110 km/h der 161 AE. Die von der Société d'étude pour l'électrification des Chemins de Fer (ECF) entwickelte Lokomotive ähnelte stark den zur gleichen Zeit in Nordamerika gebauten Boxcab-Lokomotiven.

Technik

Die beiden Hälften der Doppellokomotive liegen auf zwei miteinander kurzgekuppelten Drehgestellen, so dass die Lokomotivkasten keine Zug- und Druckkräfte aufnehmen. Die beiden inneren Drehgestelle haben zwei Treibachsen, die äußeren haben eine Treibachse und eine Laufachse mit kleinerem Durchmesser. Der Antrieb erfolgt über Tatzlager-Motoren. Die Anfahrwiderstände werden über einzelne elektro-pneumatische Schütze gesteuert, die Gruppierung der Motoren über Nockenschaltwerke.

Larcidiocesi di Portoviejo (in latino: Archidioecesis Portus Veteris) è una sede metropolitana della Chiesa cattolica in Ecuador. Nel 2019 contava 1.408.350 battezzati su 1.537.090 abitanti. È retta dall'arcivescovo Eduardo José Castillo Pino.

Territorio
L'arcidiocesi comprende la provincia ecuadoriana di Manabí.

Sede arcivescovile è la città di Portoviejo, dove si trova la cattedrale di Gesù Buon Pastore.

Il territorio è suddiviso in 89 parrocchie.

Storia
La diocesi di Portoviejo fu eretta il 23 marzo 1870 con la bolla Multiplices inter di papa Pio IX, ricavandone il territorio dall'arcidiocesi di Quito e dalla diocesi di Guayaquil (oggi arcidiocesi). Originariamente era suffraganea dell'arcidiocesi di Quito. L'allora delegato apostolico Serafino Vannutelli, arcivescovo titolare di Nicea, ricevette da Pio IX il mandato di portare a termine l'erezione della nuova arcidiocesi.

Gli esordi della nuova diocesi furono molto difficili. Il primo vescovo Luis Tola y Avilés ebbe gravi problemi di salute e restò alla guida effettiva della diocesi soltanto per pochi giorni. Nel 1875 presentò una prima rinuncia, ma nel 1878 papa Pio IX lo autorizzò a dirigere la diocesi dalla sua dimora di Guayaquil e a tenere funzioni pontificali nella sua cappella privata. La diocesi restava affidata al suo vicario generale. Si trattava di fronteggiare una situazione pastorale disastrosa: la popolazione non si dava cura dei precetti cristiani, erano diffusi la superstizione e lo spiritismo, la morale era inaccettabile, mancavano chiese, scuole e collegi. Tuttavia, eresse la cattedrale ed istituì il collegio conciliare san Luigi Gonzaga. Luis Tola y Avilés rinunciò una seconda volta nel 1881 e le sue dimissioni furono allora accettate.

Il successore Pedro Schumacher nel 1885 trovò una diocesi ancora priva di seminario, senza nessuna presenza di ordini religiosi e con solo sette sacerdoti diocesani che dovevano provvedere a 24 parrocchie. Si lanciò quindi in un'opera immensa di sviluppo della diocesi, istituì due seminari e invitò ordini religiosi dall'Europa e dagli Stati Uniti per porre fine alla cronica mancanza di un clero debitamente formato.

La successiva rivoluzione liberale spazzò via tutto quanto il vescovo Schumacher era riuscito faticosamente a costruire: i seminari furono demoliti dalle fondamenta, i collegi riconvertiti in scuole statali, le chiese distrutte. Gli ordini religiosi furono espulsi dal paese e lo stesso vescovo, che apparteneva alla Congregazione della Missione, fu costretto all'esilio in Colombia.

I soprusi del governo giunsero a sopprimere per legge la diocesi, senza produrre però nessun effetto canonico. Dopo la morte del vescovo Schumacher fu nominato un amministratore apostolico, che però era anziano e sordomuto e senza alcuna rendita per le confische subite. La vastissima diocesi contava appena quattro sacerdoti. Nel 1907 quando fu eletto vescovo Juan María Riera si sarebbe dovuto ripartire dal nulla per rifondare la diocesi. Neanche questo fu possibile, perché il vescovo, per il veto del governo, dovette accontentarsi di guidare la diocesi da Quito, senza potervi risiedere. Quattro anni dopo fu trasferito alla diocesi di Guayaquil. Si aprì quindi una lunga sede vacante, che terminerà soltanto nel 1947.

Il 14 dicembre 1945 la diocesi cedette una porzione del suo territorio a vantaggio dell'erezione della prefettura apostolica di Esmeraldas (oggi vicariato apostolico).

Il 22 gennaio 1956 entrò a far parte della nuova provincia ecclesiastica dell'arcidiocesi di Guayaquil.

Il 25 febbraio 1994 è stata elevata al rango di arcidiocesi metropolitana in forza della bolla Maiori spirituali di papa Giovanni Paolo II.

A causa del terremoto del 2016 l'arcidiocesi ha subito notevoli danni, la stessa cattedrale ha subito danni strutturali.

Yeah, I know you don't love the long reads… I just cannot help myself some days. Sometimes my daily topic has me so inspired that the words flow too quickly from my mind and fingertips to stop. It's like I have to purge it, all of it before I can think normally again until the need to write about it burns out like a star in the sky. So thanks for suffering through the long posts. In time my writing style may become less wordy but I won't guarantee it. I tend to send really long emails to people too.

Tim Burton Timeline
24. August 2018 Significant Timelines
This Saturday, edgy and surrealist film director, producer and animator Tim Burton turns 60. Considered as one of Hollywood's most successful filmmakers, he has defined his trademark visual style by bringing together the 19th and 20th century European art and American culture concepts. The dark world and storyline of his productions revolve around protagonists that are freaks or loners, which might seem unappealing in terms of cinema commercialism, yet they have built a strong cult following.
To wish a happy birthday to the creator of iconic characters such as Edward Scissorhands, Jack Skellington and Beetlejuice, we present you the Tim Burton Timeline – a visual chronological summary of his most notable life events and most popular movies.
Before going for feature-length movies, Mr. Burton started as an animator at Walt Disney studios, directing well-received short films such as Frankenweenie or Vincent. His big screen debut came with Pee-Wee's Big Adventure, a comedy made on a budget of $8 million that grossed over $40 million in North America. This established Burton as a skillful and profitable director able to produce hits on a low budget, and it soon led to him receiving his first big budget movie, Batman. Although the production was plagued with problems due to Burton's cast choice, the end result became one of the biggest box office hits of all time and proved to be a huge influence on future superhero films.
From then onwards, the Burbank-born director bolstered his unmistakable visual universe defined by the merge of Gothic architecture with L.A. suburban landscapes, German expressionism-influenced décor, and costumes with a Victorian flavor or inspired by Dr. Seuss' stories and cartoons.
The Tim Burton chronology was created with Office Timeline, a simple add-in for PowerPoint that helps you design elegant timelines, Gantt charts and other similar visuals with ease. The image is free to copy and share, and you can edit or restyle it with the Plus version of the tool.

Family identification number uniquely identifying a family. Consists of concatenated CENTER_NO (2 digits; digits 1-2) + local family number (7 digits; digits 3-9). The last portion of the number (7 digit part) should be right justified, zero filled. Ex: Family Id 12345 from Australia Colon Center should be: 130012345. *FAMILY_ID + PERSON_ID are the primary key for the table.
Number that uniquely identifies an individual. Consists of concatenation of CENTER_NO (2 digit; digits 1-2) + (10 digit local unique individual id; digits 3-12). The 10 digit individual number component should be right justified, zero filled. Ex: Individual Id 98765 from Australia Colon Center should be: 130000098765. *FAMILY_ID + PERSON_ID are the primary key for the table.
Flag indicated that individual is the proband. Note: multiple records within a family may be flagged as a proband for families sampled with population-based criteria.
Person _id of corresponding individuals that are linked together as proband/individual and spouse control. For example, the proband/individual record would have the spouse_control_id set to the person_id of their spouse. A proband or a family member may have a spouse control but the spouse may not have the proband as a spouse control. Note: this field should only be used in the situation that spouses are recruited specifically for serving as a control.

Weight for population-based probands that takes response/participation rates into account.
The sampling fraction, based on ascertainment criteria such as family history, ethnicity, age of diagnosis etc. The probability of being sampled. It does not take response/participation rates into account. Applicable to population-based probands.
Type of recruitment for population-based probands.
Previous Incident: The qualifying tumor is an incident or 'first CRC', but the diagnosis date is prior to the CFR recruitment period. In other words, the proband had one CRC diagnosis up to enrollment in the CFR, prior to the 'CFR recruitment period'.
Second primary (previously referred to as 'prevalent'). The qualifying tumor is not the first CRC. In other words, the participant had one or more CRC diagnoses prior to a CRC diagnosis during the CFR recruitment period. The new (or subsequent) CRC is flagged as the 'qualifying tumor'.
An internal code to describe the individuals relationship to the primary proband (proband_flag ; 1 First identified or only proband) in a family. Will serve as a foreign key to a new relationship meta-table that contains the code, degree of relationship, English description of the relationship and potentially other attributes.


Who's back: F Bonzie Colson. The long-armed, 6-foot-6 senior is the preseason ACC Player of the Year choice after averaging 17.8 points and 10.1 rebounds per game last season, including 19 double-doubles and 43 percent shooting from beyond the 3-point arc; G Matt Farrell. The gritty, 6-foot-1 senior point guard averaged 14.1 points and 5.4 assists; F Martinas Geben. The 6-foot-10 senior from Lithuania helped lead his country to the gold medal in the World University Games after averaging 3.1 points and 3.4 rebounds and shooting nearly 65 percent from the field last season for the Irish;; G Rex Pflueger. The 6-6 junior will be asked to provide the 3-point offense lost with the graduation of Vasturia and Beachem; F John Mooney. A 6-foot-9 sophomore who is expected to help Geben on the boards along with 6-foot-8 F Elijah Burns and 6-foot-7 F Austin Torres.
Who's new: F D.J. Harvey. A 6-foot-6+ swingman who averaged 17.3 points, 8.7 rebounds and 2.9 assists as a senior at DeMatha (Md.) High School; G Nikola Djogo. A 6-foot-7 guard from Canada who sat out his freshman year and could provide some 3-point offense off the bench.
The Skinny: In 17 seasons, Brey has 382 victories, 11 shy of Digger Phelps' all-time mark of 393. … In four seasons in the ACC, his Irish have appeared in the ACC title game twice (2015, '17) … In the last three seasons, Notre Dame has seven NCAA victories and made back-to-back Elite Eight appearances in 2015 and '16.

The era of the pioneering Immediate Postwar hands-on Japanologists is truly and inevitably coming to an end. First Edwin Reischauer (long ago in 1990; I managed to meet him and host a talk by him and his wife Haru at UCSD in 1989), then Edward Seidensticker (2007), now Donald Richie (for whom Debito.org has had praise for in the past for his healthy attitude of "swallowing Japan whole"; I met him about ten years ago and had a very good conversation; he also kindly lavished praise on HANDBOOK). Of the very famous ones, Donald Keene is basically the last one standing. And I don't think I will be able to eulogize that Donald in the same way.
I will miss Donald Richie. Feel free to append articles and your thoughts below. Arudou Debito

Donald Richie, American Expert on Japan, Is Dead at 88
By MARTIN FACKLER
Donald Richie, one of the most prominent American writers on Japan and on expatriate life, who is best known for introducing the English-speaking world to the golden age of Japanese cinema, including the director Akira Kurosawa, died on Tuesday at a hospital in Tokyo. He was 88.
Mr. Richie had been in poor health for several years, said Christopher Blasdel, a longtime friend of Mr. Richie. He said Mr. Richie died at the University of Tokyo Hospital, where he had been taken after his heart stopped at his apartment in Tokyo.
During his life, Mr. Richie wrote prolifically not just on film and culture, but also on his own travels and experiences living in a nation that he watched rise from the wartime ashes to high-tech affluence and then stumble again. He won recognition for his soul-baring descriptions of a lifetime spent mostly in Japan, an impenetrable but permissive society that always held him politely at arm's length, but that also allowed him to freely explore both its exquisitely refined classical arts and its garishly seedy demimonde.
While he preferred to chronicle the private aspects of life rather than big public events, he is widely regarded as a leading interpreter of Japan in a generation of American intellectuals who first encountered the nation as a result of World War II.
A native of Lima, Ohio, Mr. Richie first saw Tokyo as a bombed-out ruin, arriving in 1947 as a 22-year-old typist to the Allied Occupation forces, after serving on transport ships during the war. He spent most of the next 66 years in Tokyo, writing some 40 books ranging from studies of flower arranging to historical novels.
He won a following among Western readers for his nuanced and sensitive descriptions of Japan and its people that transcended Western stereotypes of the country. His works, like the 1971 travelogue "The Inland Sea," were widely praised for their finely textured portraits of Japanese individuals, both famous and ordinary, that humanized the former wartime foe.
"I remain in a state of surprise, and this leads to heightened interest and hence perception," Mr. Richie wrote in his diary in 1947, describing the thrill with living abroad that he would keep his entire life. "Like a child with a puzzle, I am forever putting pieces together and saying: Of course."
But Mr. Richie made his biggest mark in his writings on Japanese cinema, and particularly its great postwar directors.
In 1959, he and Joseph Anderson published what is regarded by film studies experts as the first English-language book on Japanese movies, "The Japanese Film: Art and Industry." In his memoir, he recounted how in the late 1940s he paid his first visit to a Japanese studio, where he met a director in a white floppy hat and "someone I guessed was a star … in a loose Hawaii-shirt." Thus began Mr. Richie's lifelong acquaintance with two of the giants of Japanese cinema, Mr. Kurosawa and the actor Toshiro Mifune.
Mr. Richie went on to write several books on Mr. Kurosawa, who won an Academy Award for lifetime achievement in 1989, and on his films, including the 1950 samurai mystery "Rashomon," whose innovative shifting of perspective among characters won it global renown. Mr. Richie later proclaimed it "the best-known Japanese film ever made." He also wrote English subtitles for three of Mr. Kurosawa's films, including "Kagemusha" (1980).
Mr. Richie also drew attention to another brilliant Japanese director, Yasujiro Ozu, whose sparse and subtle handling of themes like family in "Tokyo Story" (1953) influenced Western directors like Wim Wenders, according to Aaron Gerow, a professor of Japanese cinema at Yale University.
"Donald Richie was the one to get these films shown abroad," Mr. Gerow said. "He was the first gatekeeper of Japanese film for the English-language world."
During his decades in Japan, Mr. Richie met and wrote about many of the more colorful figures in Japan's postwar intellectual and artistic scene. He seemed to be particularly drawn to Yukio Mishima, the novelist who killed himself by ritual disembowelment in 1970. Mr. Richie struggled to make sense of the suicide, often interpreted here as an effort to draw attention to the nation's loss of martial spirit, and expressed mild exasperation with Mr. Mishima's widow for seeking to hide her late husband's well-known embrace of homosexuality.
Openly bisexual, Mr. Richie also wrote frankly about his lovers both male and female, saying Japan's greater tolerance of homosexuality in the 1940s compared to the United States was one reason he returned after graduating from Columbia University in 1953. He lived most of his life alone, though he was briefly married to Mary Richie, an American writer.
Still, Mr. Richie seemed to have a complex view of the nation where he spent most of his life. In his writings, he did not shy from painting a less-than-rosy picture of its xenophobic society. Yet, he also found much to praise, particularly the sense of balance and subtlety apparent in traditional Japanese arts.
"Donald had a sensibility that was not nurtured where he grew up," said his friend Mr. Blasdel, artistic director of Tokyo's International House. "He was warm but also kept his distance, even in his personal relationships. This gives his writing a sense of passionately caring, but also of objectivity and truthfulness."
Indeed, some of Mr. Richie's most poignant writings describe his status as an American expatriate in a nation that keeps outsiders at a distance. He said he never sought to become a Japanese citizen, but instead seemed to revel in his position on the margins of Japanese society, which he wrote offered him far greater personal freedom than he could have had back in Ohio.
"I may have rejected the U.S.A. where I was born," Mr. Richie wrote in his memoir, "The Japan Journals, 1947-2004," "but I did not decide to be Japanese. That is an impossible decision since the Japanese prevent it. Rather, I decided to decorate Limbo and become a citizen of this most attractive, intensely democratic republic."
Mr. Richie lamented the changes he saw transforming the nation. In books like "The Inland Sea," Mr. Richie bemoaned the passing of the quaint, agrarian country that he found in the 1940s, the victim of decades of unrestrained public works and American-style commercial redevelopment.
"It was the most beautiful country I'd ever seen in my life," he wrote in 1992, "and now it's just about the ugliest."
Still, he expressed few regrets about his self-imposed exile. In one of the last entries in "The Japan Journals," he likened himself to Rip Van Winkle because he missed out on the last half-century of popular culture and events back in the United States.
"I managed to sleep through my generation," he wrote. "By coming to this magical land where everything looks much the same but acts sometimes otherwise."
But where Rip Van Winkle felt loss at his separation, Mr. Richie concluded, "I feel gain."
Loverilakkuma says:
I just read his obituary on the NYT this afternoon. I didn't know he was having a health problem for a while. His research is centered on the Japanese public culture and film studies. My hunch is that he knows Japan has problems common to countries having democratic society, but he 'plays it safe' to avoid getting into national stigma of 'housed gaijin' who turned into a Japan-basher.
I sometimes get bothered with the term 'Japanologist' due to its uncertainty of meaning. My general understanding is any study related to Japan or Japanese society, but there seems to be moot point in its interpretation regarding the genres and choice of research methodology.
Here's the list of names I can come up with: Erza Vogel, Befu Harumi, John Dower, Don Keene, Robert Bellah, Teresa Morris-Suzuki, Simon Andrew Avenell, Ellis S. Krauss, and Robert Pekkanen. The last three folks are political scientists studying Japan's political system and civil society. I wonder if they will be counted.
— I think the classical definition of "Japanologist" (starting with the likes of Ruth Benedict, who never even visited Japan, which is why I said "hands-on") has been one who has a teachable knowledge of Japan from a cultural aspect (Reischauer and his magic means of reading and negotiating US-Japan relations, Seidensticker for his translations and knowledge of Tokyo, Richie for film etc., and Keene for literature). That has hopefully by now been updated, since other Japanologists of later generations and waves (such as the late Chalmers Johnson, a mentor of mine) generally eschew cultural explanations as so much "Grand Kabuki" manipulations. I agree, many of the names you mention above are within the next generation of "hands-on" knowledgeables about Japan, only now from less safely-ensconsced niches parroting cultural arty-facts. Sociologists, political scientists, historians, etc.; qualified people, all. And for the sake of argument and fairness, one might include a few of the House Gaijin of Gregory Clark's ilk and generation too.
Oh how sad! He was one of the few long-termers of fame who I could truly respect….and I had just learned about him through Debito's post a few weeks ago regarding the "At Home Abroad" book. I thought his views were the most interesting, balanced, and articulate.
I also empathized the most with his take on life in Japan as a foreigner:
"Japan […] allows me to like myself because it agrees with me and I with it. Moreover, it allows me to keep my freedom. It makes very few demands on me – I am considered too much the outsider for that […] – and, consequently, I become free. I think if I didn't feel like a foreigner, I woudn't be here. If I were Japanese, I wouldn't stay here ten minutes."
RIP kindred spirit!
The Japan Times on Richie:
Writer Donald Richie dies at 88
BY EDAN CORKILL
The Japan Times FEB 20, 2013
Long-term Japan resident, writer and critic Donald Richie, who through dozens of books and articles published from the late 1940s until the last decade helped introduce Japanese film and culture to the world, passed away in Tokyo on Tuesday, according to his long-term editor, Leza Lowitz. He was 88.
Richie, who was born in Lima, Ohio, on April 17, 1924, first came to Japan with the U.S. Occupation force in 1947. He soon began working for Pacific Stars and Stripes, where he gained a reputation as a prolific writer of film reviews.
After a stint back in the United States, he returned to Japan and began writing regularly for The Japan Times in 1954. Richie wrote hundreds of articles for the newspaper, covering not only film, but his other passions of theater, literature and art.
He continued to write for the newspaper through 2009.
Richie also published many books, including "The Japanese Film: Art and Industry," which he coauthored with Joseph Anderson in 1959.
Between 1969 and 1972, Richie was in New York, working as a curator of film at the New York Museum of Modern Art.
He is also known for his travel writing. "The Inland Sea," a memoir of his journey to the Seto Inland Sea that was first published in 1971, is considered a classic of the genre.
Richie suffered several heart attacks in the past decade. He is survived by his sister, Jean Reuther, who lives in the U.S.
Below are interviews with Donald Richie over the years as well as Asian Bookshelf book reviews dating back to 2001.

When classes resume at the University of Memphis in August, the unofficial campus tradition of crossing the railroad tracks along Southern Avenue will change.
Architect Ritchie Smith walks the length of railroad track that bisects the University of Memphis campus. Several new pedestrian crossings are presently being constructed with green elements.
Students on foot will no longer be able to cross just anywhere along the 2,000 feet of track between Patterson and Zach Curlin.
There will be a five-foot high iron fence on both sides of the Norfolk Southern right of way and three new pedestrian and bicycle crossings. They replace six existing, outdated and largely forgotten pedestrian crossings.
The rail line has been there since before there was a university or college on the land.
And a lot has changed in more than a century, even on the railroad right of way, which had a role in creating the look of an area where pieces have been added here and there.
The area just outside the railroad right of way included an encampment of crates and boxes that were home for several years in the 1980s to Edward Williamson, known as Box Car Eddie.
Getting the ribbon of landscaping took a lot of negotiation with Norfolk Southern Corp. executives who might have thought the renderings were attractive, but remain focused on safety – specifically that their operators be able to see what and who is around the tracks in the dense, urban environment.
Smith said the primary edict was no trees. Further west along the right of way that is west of the Highland Street crossing, homeowners thought they had secured an agreement with the railroad to plant a row of trees as a buffer along that part of Southern Avenue.
Despite the understanding, the railroad still had the trees cut down before a second planting.
With that in mind, negotiations on the section for the pedestrian crossing were specific and detailed.
"The main landscape treatment is all new grass sod across the whole 2,000-foot band," Smith said. "For the first time, you are going to have a green, smooth attractive lawn area of what was paved and graveled and really looking abandoned and somewhat derelict.
The pedestrian crossings are more than grade crossings. They have solar-powered lighting and flashing crossing lights with audible signals as a train approaches. The crossings meet Americans with Disabilities Act standards and they have gates designed to make pedestrians think before they cross.
Smith puts the cost of each set at $240,000 and they are state of the art.
Construction of several new pedestrian railroad crossings is underway on the stretch of track running between Walker and Southern, through the U of M campus.
For the $1.8 million total, 80 percent is a Tennessee Department of Transportation grant with a 20 percent funding match from the university.
The northern side of Southern will get a sidewalk it has never had. Poteet said work crews are almost finished with what is a central element in tying together the more pedestrian friendly elements underway in other nearby projects. That includes streetscape improvements on Walker Avenue and the land bridge from the campus area south of the tracks into the heart of the university's traditional campus and alumni mall.
"It's more attractive obviously, but the sidewalk on the north side of Southern, so that you can traverse from where you park your car to the safe crossing, is an integral part of the whole project," Poteet said.
The most prominent of the three pedestrian crossings is where Echles Street dead ends into Southern Avenue on the south side of the tracks. The crossing is directly south of the alumni mall and the administration building at the other end of the mall.
It's also where the old Normal Depot stood until 1948 when the rail line was for passengers as well as freight.
Smith's group found the brick footing for the building and could make out the outline of the building without too much effort.
The contractor is Zellner Construction Services, with engineering by Allen & Hoshall.

Interact with the 360o virtual reality tour before calling Forest Marble to arrange your viewing on this deceptively large family home that has been extended to create a versatile living space with bedroom accommodation on two floors, which is perfect for anyone who regularly hosts guests or extended family. Externally the house has a large plot with garden space and driveway immediate to the front. At the rear you have a sunny garden with its own beach bar style entertaining area which leads into a workshop and studio to the back of the plot.
Stepping in from the side of the house you will find access to the dining room, kitchen, shower room and fourth bedroom as well as stairs to the first floor landing.
A modern fitted kitchen with pleasant views over the front garden. There is a range of high and low level storage units with marble effect work surfaces over the low level cupboards. The gas boiler can be found within the kitchen along with space for washing machine, dishwasher and fridge freezer. There is a large double cooker in-situ and a stainless steel sink and drainer unit set into the work surface. Tiling to walls and splash backs along with natural stone look flooring finish off the room.
The converted garage is a great space to house your guests or extended family as the room is comfortably large enough to house bed and bedroom furniture. Alternatively there is scope to extend the kitchen to create a large kitchen and diner should you wish to (subject to necessary planning). The room also serves well as a home office, away from the main living space.
Ideally located next to the ground floor bedroom/study is this well presented shower room with low level WC, wash hand basin and shower cubicle. There is tiling to floor and splash back.
When the house was first built this room was a lounge and diner. now the property has been extended the dining room takes up the entirety of the original reception space and incorporates a utility come storage room to one side. Double doors lead through in the living room at the rear of the house.
A lovely and light room with views over the rear garden. Double doors lead in from the dining room and French doors lead out to the conservatory which give the room a beautiful flow. You can hunker down in here during the winter months, or throw open the doors in the summer and enjoy the pleasant weather.
a double glazed conservatory of block and UPVC construction which looks over the rear garden. The perfect play room or reading room.
Ascending the stairs from the entrance hall you have access to three bedrooms, family bathroom, and the loft.
A well proportioned double bedroom with views over the rear garden and plenty of fitted storage.
Set to the front of the house the double bedroom also has built in wardrobe and storage above the stair cavity.
A single bedroom, but of good size by modern standards and with views to the rear.
A contemporary bathroom suite comprising a bath with mixer taps and a hand held shower attached, WC and wash hand basin with vanity unit. There is tiling to walls and splash backs.
Immediately to the front of the property you have off street driveway parking which is bordered by a large area of low maintenance gravelled garden with a variety of shrubs and herbaceous borders.
The sunny rear garden is largely laid to lawn, but also benefiting from planted beds and gravel path leading you to the paved and covered seating area. The seating area is complete with its own outside 'bar' where you can entertain your friends and family all year round and in all weathers.
With access from the back of the garden there is a block built workshop and studio. Although the building is approximately the size of a large double garage the current owner has created two spaces inside which facilitate separate uses, but could be combined to make one large usable space. Windows look out to the entertaining space within the garden and there is an up and over garage style door to the side.

What the heck is going on with Colorado Democrats' public health insurance option bill?
House Bill 1232, a top priority of Gov. Jared Polis, has been the subject of weeks of still-unresolved negotiations between lawmakers, hospitals and others in the health care industry
by Jesse Paul 3:30 AM MDT on Apr 26, 2021

Democratic state lawmakers aiming to drive down health care costs are planning to move forward this week with legislation to potentially create a public health insurance option after roughly a month of still-unresolved negotiations with hospitals, doctors and others in the medical sector.
But they're still not sure exactly what their policy will look like.
Two paths forward have surfaced. The first is to continue on with the current version of House Bill 1232, which would give the health care industry a chance to bring down costs and avoid the state offering its own insurance plan. The second path is to swap the original version for legislation akin to what was pursued last year, where instead of the state offering a health insurance option private insurers would be required to offer a highly regulated, standardized plan.
"I think (either) could happen when we go to committee on Tuesday," said state Rep. Dylan Roberts, an Avon Democrat who is leading the push for House BIll 1232.
Regardless, Roberts says, the measure will be advanced in some form after being placed in a holding pattern during its 10-hour first committee hearing on April 9.
"We're going forward on Tuesday. And we hope to find an agreement with some of these opposition groups before then. But, if we don't, we're still going to go forward on Tuesday," he said.
The complications underscore how politically delicate it is to try to overhaul Colorado's health care system. The recent negotiations have included assuaging the fears of labor groups, a core Democratic constituency. The groups surprisingly opposed the bill during its first hearing because they were worried workers would be fired to help hospitals balance their budgets to make up for reduced revenue following the policy change. They've since warmed to the legislation after being promised that changes will be made.
State Rep. Dylan Roberts, D-Avon, speaks at a news conference about the introduction of a public health insurance option in Colorado at the state Capitol on Thursday,
Adding to the tangle is the fact that the 2021 lawmaking term is fast approaching its adjournment date. The legislature has until June 12 to complete its work, though Democratic leadership at the Capitol would like to wrap things up around Memorial Day.
Lawmakers do have the option to pause the session and work out the details without losing any of the 120 lawmaking days they are allotted thanks to a Colorado Supreme Court ruling last year that removed the requirement they use the 120 days consecutively.
With the state budget nearly complete, the General Assembly effectively has until the end of 2021 to wrap up its work as long as a public health emergency declaration from the governor is in effect. However, that's not the preferred route.
The Colorado Senate is likely where the legislation faces its biggest hurdle. Democrats have a majority in the upper chamber, but it's much smaller than the party's large advantage in the House.
"I wouldn't say I'm getting nervous," said Senate Majority Leader Steve Fenberg, D-Boulder. "I'm watching it and interested in seeing what the end product will be that comes to the Senate. I think everybody knew this bill was going to change from where it was when it was introduced. That's not a big surprise."
Reimbursement rates are the big sticking point
Recently, the sticking point in the negotiations has been with hospitals, with whom Democrats have explored moving forward by reverting to last year's proposal.
"The biggest hangup is around the reimbursement piece," said Joshua Ewing, vice president of legislative affairs for the Colorado Hospital Association.
Lawmakers would like to see a floor 150% above Medicare reimbursement rates. Hospitals want the floor to be 200%.
Ewing said hospitals understand that they will take a revenue hit from House Bill 1232, but they want it to be fair in comparison to others in the health care industry, like pharmaceutical companies and private insurers.

"What we're talking about is cuts to hospitals," he said. "Who is adversely impacted by those cuts? It's not just a straightforward kind of thing. Cuts have consequences and I think all we're asking is let's be really thoughtful about how we're cutting hospitals in the middle of a pandemic."
Roberts said the other lawmakers working on the bill, which is a policy priority for Gov. Jared Polis, are committed to reaching a compromise. Democrats have been pushing for years to pass a major bill to drive down health care costs in Colorado. With next year an election year, this is the prime opportunity to get the measure done.
"We need to have the assurance from some of these larger stakeholders that they're not going to continue to lobby against this bill even if we make these significant changes," he said.
Robert said he is OK with scrapping the original language in House Bill 1232 in exchange for reverting to last year's policy.
"This alternative path is definitely very much on the table because for me, it still achieves really quality results and gets at the problem we were trying to solve anyway but also may lessen some of the hyperbolic opposition that we've been seeing over the last couple months," he said.
Opponents of Roberts' bill have spent about $1 million on television ads attacking the policy. There has been untold spending on digital ads and mailers, too.
House Bill 1232 is scheduled to be debated in the House Health and Insurance Committee on Tuesday.

How To Catch and Release Fishing Tips for Dummies
Catch and Release Fishing Tips for Dummies
If you don't know this stuff, you're probably not fishing enough.
By Sid Dobrin
Trophy snook sustain the population, so a safe release will positively affect the local fishery in the future. George Poveromo
A few years ago, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) estimated that the mortality rate for released snook caught on the Gulf coast was only 2.13 percent. The research is clear that carefully releasing snook can help ensure that released fish continue to live after release. I think most of us understand, too, that this is a concept that holds true for just about any species of fish we catch and release. However, maintaining lower mortality rates among released fish requires that anglers take careful measures in how they catch, handle, and release the fish, particularly trophy sized fish.
The key to successful releases requires that anglers understand basic aspects of proper release techniques, and that's where things can get tricky. Different species of fish require different approaches to release. No longer can we think of release as simply chucking the fish back into the water. For example, reef fish require the use of a descent device rather than assuming the fish will swim back to depth on its own, while releasing a sailfish properly requires keeping the fish's head facing into the flow of water to ensure that the water moves through the fish's mouth and into its gills. So, releasing fish requires knowing about technique and about best practices for releasing specific species.
There are a few fundamental catch and release skills that all anglers should practice no matter the species of fish they are targeting:
Land Your Fish as Quickly as Possible
The longer you drag out the fight, the more exhausted the fish becomes, leaving it more vulnerable. A tired fish is likely to be too exhausted to out-swim a shark or barracuda. Often with trophy fish, anglers tend to be more cautious and deliberate in the fight for fear of losing the fish, but a drawn out fight can exhaust a fish and increase the risk post-release mortality.
Release Your Fish as Quickly as Possible
Improved Landing: Winding in a sailfish right to the boat allows for quicker resuscitation and release. File Photo
A fish that is out of the water is a fish that is not breathing correctly, and that fish can die from the lack of oxygen it takes from the water. Anglers tend to keep trophy fish out of the water longer to get more pictures of the prize catch, but your memento can prevent the fish from breathing while out of the water.
Avoid Gaffing Fish That You Plan To Release
Any gaff wound adds to a caught trophy fish's trauma, and a poorly placed gaff puncture can itself be a mortal wound for a fish. Unless you plan to eat the fish, avoid using a gaff on your trophies — or any fish for that matter.
Wet Your Hands or Use Gloves
Wet hands put a barrier of water between your skin and the fish's slime, which is there to protect the fish from disease. If you wipe the slime off with your bare hands, it is likely to leave the fish susceptible to disease. Gloves can also provide a barrier that is less likely to strip the slime off the fish.
Leave the Fish in the Water When Releasing It
This bonefish was held in the water as an angler used pliers to remove the fly. Barry And Cathy Beck
When in the water, fish are buoyed by the water and there is less gravitational force exerted on their bodies. However, when they are lifted from the water gravity pulls them in ways that their bodies are not used to. This can cause significant internal injury. When it comes to trophy fish, anglers have a tendency to want to bring them out of the water to capture trophy pictures, but the fish will benefit in its recovery from being left in the water (plus, you can get much more dynamic pictures when you adjust to the fish in the water than you can with the cliched hero shot).
Keep Your Fish Horizontal
With fish that you are physically capable of lifting from the water, keep the fish horizontal. Do not lift them vertically by the mouth or tail. Research shows that doing so increases post-release mortality. If you do lift the fish from the water, release it headfirst and let the fish slide back into the water. Do not throw the fish back into the water (note that our language regarding release has changed form the old "did you throw it back" or "throw it back; it's too small" to "did you release it" or "release it; it's too small"). Don't throw them back—literally.
Be Particularly Careful When You Can't Reach the Water
An angler holds an average-size striped bass on the rocks of Martha's Vineyard. Fishing from a jetty or pier requires some forward thinking: How can you release a fish safely you don't intend to keep? Chucking it back into the water like a bag of trash can lead to needless post-release mortality. Staff
When releasing a large fish from a pier or over a high transom or gunwale, anglers may not be able to carefully place the fish back in the water and end up dropping the fish over the edge. A long fall from a high point can injure a fish just as a fall from a high place might hurt you. When releasing big fish from a pier, use a drop net or landing net to lower the fish back to the water where it can swim away without having to first recover from a fall. When releasing a fish over a high gunwale, try to find the position on the boat lowest and closest to the water to reduce the fish's fall.
Cut Leaders As Close to the Hook As Possible
Sometimes it can be difficult or impossible to remove a hook from a large fish's mouth. For example, leaning over a transom to unhook a large billfish in rough water might not be feasible. Or, a hook might be buried deep in a fish's mouth and removing it might take longer than you should have the fish out of the water. In such cases, clip the leader as close to the hook as possible. A dangling line can be dangerous to the fish, possibly sliding through the fish's gills.
Use Barbless Hooks
Barbless hooks can make removing a hook from a fish's mouth easier and will cause less damage to the fish's mouth when you remove the hook. Likewise, with some species of fish with bonier mouths–like a tarpon, for example–a barbed hook may be difficult to remove efficiently.
Revive Tired Fish
PROPER CPR: Snook over the legal slot size should always be carefully revived and released to fight another day. Alex Suescun
Because predators like sharks and barracuda are more apt to catch a tired fish after release, it is best to revive the fish as much as possible before letting it swim away. To do so, just hold the fish with its head pointing into the current to allow the water to flow through the fish's mouth and across its gills. If the fish does not revive quickly and swim away on its own, hold the fish's mouth open and carefully move the fish forward to help push water through its mouth and across the gills. However, do not push the fish back and forth in the water — only forward. Fish don't swim backward and forcing water backward through its gills can cause further stress and damage.
We understand this list might not be complete. Let us know some of your release efforts and context-specific strategies.

When an agent conducts an appraisal of a property, they look at more than just the house itself.
Although the house is the major component of an appraisal, just as important are the fixtures and fittings within, the block on which the property sits, and the position of that property within the area. The area itself also affects the property's value.
Every property is unique and for that reason each appraisal must be done professionally and efficiently – two approaches we pride ourselves on when conducting an appraisal.
Something we can offer above and beyond most other agents, is flexibility. We're available after hours – when it's convenient for you, not us. That includes weekends.

The Latest: Sanders says Trump won't cave on border security
White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders talks to reporters about the government shutdown outside the White House, Friday, Jan. 4, 2019, in Washington. (AP Photo/Evan Vucci)
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on the government shutdown (all times local):
The White House press secretary says President Donald Trump is prepared to bypass Congress if necessary by declaring a national emergency to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border.
Sarah Huckabee Sanders tells "Fox News Sunday" that the White House has been looking at "every option available" to get the needed money, and she says Trump will do "whatever it takes to protect our borders."
Trump asserted on Friday that he could declare a national emergency to build the wall without congressional approval, but would first try a "negotiated process." Such a move is certain to draw legal challenges.
Sanders says Trump is "not going to stop" until he figures out the best way to protect U.S. citizens and that "whatever action he takes will certainly be lawful."
A first round of talks between White House officials and congressional aides has made little progress toward ending the government shutdown, with each side accusing the other of giving no ground.
More discussions are planned for Sunday.
President Donald Trump is scheduled to be at Camp David for a retreat with White House staff on border security and other topics. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says House Democrats intend to start passing individual bills to reopen agencies.

Archibald races into the unknown in men's time trial
The British rider has been brought in after Geraint Thomas withdrew from the world championship event.
Published: 24 September 2019 - 3.20pm
By Press Association Published: 24 September 2019 - 3.20pm
John Archibald will be riding into the unknown when he races for Great Britain in the men's elite time trial at the UCI Road World Championships on Wednesday.
The Scot has already done his job after helping Britain deliver bronze in the team time trial mixed relay on Sunday, but got the late call to ride the individual event after Geraint Thomas withdrew on Saturday.
As a result, he has had only two days to prepare, two days to recon the route, two days to even think about competing in the biggest time trial of his life at the age of 28.
"I don't know what I can expect because I've never done a race of this calibre before," Archibald told the PA news agency. "The biggest UCI time trial I've done is the nationals.
"I've raced against big names on the track and have an idea of where I fare on that leaderboard, but here this is a first toe in the water."
Sunday's result can give Archibald confidence, but as he was keen to point out, there is a significant difference between preparing for a 14 kilometre team time trial and a 54km individual effort.
"I feel fit, I feel fresh and I'm ready to race, but the team time trial was very high-paced short efforts and then back in line to recover," he said. "A 54km time trial is going to take over an hour with lots of threshold efforts.
"I should be fit, but it's an unknown. I don't know how I'll fare but I feel confident."
Archibald may have been thrown in at the deep end – hopefully not too literally after flooding marred Tuesday's men's under-23 time trial – but his coaches are not taking it easy on him.
"They want a top 10 out of me," he said. "That's their aim. Personally I'll know at the end of the race whether I've done a good race or not."
But whether or not the pressure is on, Archibald is determined to make the most of the opportunity that has come his way.
The brother of Olympic track champion Katie is riding a road worlds for the first time at the age of 28, just six months after making his track worlds debut in Poland.
Having come into the sport in his early 20s and given up a full-time job to pursue it, Archibald fully recognises the chance he has in front of him.
"It means you are more motivated," he said of his late start. "I've given up work to do this. I'm not a young kid being told to go out and train. I'm here because I want to push myself."
Archibald's time trial ended in success as he took second in the British nationals in June. Alex Dowsett was the only man faster as he claimed his record-equalling sixth title, and the Essex rider will join Archibald in Wednesday's race.
The 30-year-old brings far more experience of racing at this level, having taken bronze in the 2015 world championships in Richmond, Virginia, and unlike Archibald, Dowsett has been targeting this race since May.
"The form is good," he said. "I've moved to altitude and I'm usually useless up there. So I come down to races having done terrible numbers in training and then do good numbers in racing.
"Everything I've done since the Tour (de France) I've been good at. The first two days at the Tour of Germany I was very good, and the first two days of the Tour of Britain I was very good. Hopefully that bodes well for Wednesday."
