MEXICO CITY (AP) — The Jesuits announced Wednesday that Nicaragua’s government has confiscated the University of Central America in Nicaragua, one of the region’s most highly regarded colleges.It was the latest in a series of expulsions, closures and confiscations by the regime of President Daniel Ortega targeting the Roman Catholic Church and opposition figures. The order, known as the Society of Jesus, said the government seized all the university’s property, buildings and bank accounts. It quoted the government as claiming the university “operated as a center of terrorism.” The Jesuits say the accusation is unfounded.“With this confiscation, the Ortega government has buried the freedom of thought in Nicaragua,” said María Asunción Moreno, who was a professor at the university until she was forced into exile in 2021.In April, the Vatican closed its embassy in Nicaragua after the country’s government proposed suspending diplomatic relations.Two congregations of nu...16 downtown Denver office buildings considered for housing conversions

This was later narrowed down to 16 by the architecture firm Gensler, which the city partnered with for this project. Downtown Denver only has a little more than half its pre-COVID foot traffic The funding for the study came from the American Rescue Plan Act, which was passed by Congress in 2021 as a COVID-19 economic stimulus bill. “If the top 16 buildings from Denver’s analysis were converted to residential uses, this could add over 5,000 units to our downtown neighborhood,” said Jon Gambrill, managing director of Gensler’s Denver office, in a news release. “This would also convert upwards of 4.3 million square feet of office space to new resident...Rockies legend Todd Helton honored with jersey giveaway this weekend

Transportation planners hope to use data gathered from the pilot program to guide the city’s future transportation strategy.“With the expansion of autonomous vehicle shuttles into our neighborhoods, we can converge cutting-edge technology with new mobility solutions to further redefine the way our community moves,” Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer said.The autonomous shuttle service is operated by Beep Inc., an Orlando-based company that already operates a similar service in a planned community near Orlando International Airport.Patriots left tackle Trent Brown feeling “great” in return to practice field
