The South Island Hip and Knee Program is one of five new hip and knee programs the provincial government is implementing throughout the province as one component of its four-part surgical strategy. This provincial network of hip and knee programs will address the long waits faced by people for these procedures.
With new operating room resources, including a new dedicated operating room at Royal Jubilee Hospital, approximately 800 additional joint replacement surgeries will be performed on the South Island in 2018-19, for a total of approximately 2,400 surgeries per year.

Iris is my family's standard-sized (all the others are minis) black dachshund. Iris came to us via a dachshund rescue program along with her daughter Izzy from all the way across the US. Unfortunately, Iris passed away on the morning of September 27, 2006 as a result of an improper prescription for antibiotics given to her by a vet. Needless to say, I was crushed and have been an emotional wreck since then (slowly recovering).
My fondest memory of Iris is from the day we brought her home. Iris' first order of business (i.e. as soon as she got through the front door) was to charge past her buddy Izzy (who came a few days before her and was eager to greet her) and search the house for food. Iris would go on and continue her unending quest for food by scouring the house every day no matter how much we fed her (and how much weight she gained!), and came to be affectionally referred to by me and my girlfriend as "fat dachshund." the nickname was particularly suitable after Iris had a stint on the dinner table...someone left one of the chairs slightly pulled out from underneath the table and Iris daringly made it onto the dinner table and ate all of our food. you could literally see her bulging afterwards!
I've posted this photo of Iris so that I can share with everyone that which has brought me so much joy and happiness over the two years that she was with my family. I miss you so much Iris.
Metro’s ADA Services team offers a very special Travel Training Program. It teaches individuals who qualify for reduced fares or ADA paratransit services, how to ride MetroBus and MetroLink independently.

Durante su visita a Leticia, en el marco de los diálogos regionales Compromiso por Colombia, el presidente Iván Duque y el Ministro de Ambiente y Desarrollo Sostenible Carlos Correa recorrieron las instalaciones del Instituto Amazónico de Investigaciones Científicas Sinchi, donde pudieron conocer de primera mano los laboratorios de agroindustria y biodiversidad que suman iniciativas para la reactivación económica de la región.
El recorrido estuvo acompañado por los directivos del Sistema Nacional Ambiental: Instituto Sinchi, Parques Nacionales Naturales y Visión Amazonía, quienes se encuentran en territorio con el Ministerio de Ambiente para lanzar diferentes programas a lo largo de esta semana.
En el laboratorio de agroindustria se detalló el trabajo que realiza la entidad para el procesamiento de frutos amazónicos, la investigación, la transferencia de conocimiento a las comunidades, el apoyo a los emprendimientos y la constitución de negocios verdes.
"La visita al Instituto Sinchi es un mensaje que tiene que ver con nuestra visión de país. Colombia tiene un Gobierno que cree en la ciencia y la tecnología. Uno de los componentes más importantes es el de bieconomía, donde interactúa la ciencia con la constitución de negocios sostenibles que le lleven desarrollo y bienestar a las comunidades", expresó el presidente Iván Duque.
Por su parte, el ministro Correa destacó que "la oferta natural, a partir de los frutales, constituye un elemento clave para la reactivación económica de la Amazonía y la generación de negocios verdes, permitiendo la conservación de los bosques y la creación de empleo".
Actualmente, en la región se cuenta con 344 negocios verdes en los departamentos de Amazonas (72), Caquetá (82), Putumayo (116), Guainía (21), Guaviare (32) y Vaupés (21), que representan el 14,7% del total de Negocios Verdes vinculados a nivel nacional. Estos Negocios Verdes cuentan con un total de 3.550 empleados y cerca de 5.000 asociados.
Nuevas especies para la ciencia
El Presidente Duque celebró las nuevas seis especies que el Instituto Sinchi descubrió para la ciencia, entre las cuales se encuentra la termita, Acorhinotermes claritae, una especie comedora de madera, asociada a bosques secundarios, que solo ha sido encontrada en Colombia; el comején, Rustitermes boteroi, es una especie clara y con abdomen protuberante; y las diatomeas, importantes en la productividad de los ríos y son bioindicadores de excelente calidad del agua.
"La identificación de seis especies recientemente para la investigación científica mundial pone a la entidad a la vanguardia de los centros de investigación ambiental. Por eso, queremos con el Ministro Correa fortalecer económicamente a nuestros centros de investigación y convertirlos en atractivos para la cooperación internacional", aseguró el primer mandatario.
Siembra simbólica
En las instalaciones del Instituto, los altos funcionarios realizaron una siembra simbólica de acapú, un árbol emblemático en la Región Amazónica y apreciado por su madera de características únicas: resistente al agua, dura más de 100 años en tierra y no es combustible. Tiene localmente amenazas por la sobreexplotación.
Esta siembra se desarrolló como parte del plan de reforestación de la Amazonía y como contribución a la meta de sembrar 180 millones de árboles al 2022 en el país.
A la fecha se han sembrado 12.357 árboles en el departamento, en los municipios de La Chorrera, La Pedrera, Leticia, Puerto Arica, Puerto Nariño, Puerto Santander y Tarapacá. La meta de la autoridad ambiental Corpoamazonia es llegar a 3,2 millones de árboles sembrados al 2022.
Celebración 60 años Parques Nacionales
Durante la visita, el ministro Correa entregó una placa conmemorativa a la Directora de Parques Nacionales Naturales de Colombia Julia Miranda, como homenaje a los 60 años de la institución en la conservación de la Amazonía y las áreas protegidas del país.
Actualmente, existen 59 áreas del Sistema de Parques Nacionales y los 3 Distritos Nacionales de Manejo Integrado suman 20’681.085 Ha, en donde se conservan ecosistemas estratégicos para el país (sitios de patrimonio histórico y arqueológico; áreas representativas de la biodiversidad nacional; especies de fauna y flora únicas, así como la forma de vida de culturas ancestrales).
Correa manifestó que los Parques Nacionales son lugares de gran valor ambiental y cultural para los colombianos, que se convertirán en foco de desarrollo sostenible y ecoturismo.
Por otra parte, el presidente Duque anunció que siete Parques Nacionales renovarán todas las facilidades para la visita de ciudadanos.
"Esto nos va a poner en la agenda más ambiciosa que haya tenido Colombia para que los visitantes a nuestro país sepan que con todos los protocolos de bioseguridad y los conceptos de preservación van a poder disfrutar del esplendor de nuestros Parques", puntualizó el mandatario. / Dic. 01, 2020.

Found a one familiar face from last year. The polish guy opened the conversation like "Hey, you're from Finland -- we'll go to have a couple of beers tonight, right?"
