Send us a textOn the show today is Peter Rice, CEO of Hanscom Federal Credit Union, a $1.9 billion institution headquartered in Boston that took flight in 1951 at Hanscom Air Force Base. Rice is a repeat guest. His first appearance came in 2021 when he was Chief Banking Officer at Workers Bank. That episode has been reposted as Greatest Hit #25. On this show Rice's mind roams across the many issues credit unions are now wrestling with - the possible loss of the federal income tax exemption, possible changes at NCUA in the DOGE restructuring of Washington DC, the retirement of America's Credit Union's CEO Jim Nussle, Hanscom's acquisition of The People's Bank (Mayland), pending regulatory approval, and a new WealthTrek facility in Government Center, Boston that is reimagining banking today and tomorrow.But there's more. We also talk about Rice's walks on the Camino de Santiago, where he has three times earned a compostela, a certificate of completion, and he muses about writing a management book about the Camino. By the way your podcast host has earned two Camino compostelas, in separate walks.And there's even a detour into the political history of Ireland, where Rice grew up.This is a show with lots to unpack.Listen up.

On this week's interview Paul sits down with Peter Rice. Peter is the owner and lead reporter of Downtown Albuquerque News, an online news outlet that covers downtown Albuquerque. Paul and Peter discuss the importance of downtowns in general, what constitutes downtown, some of the issues facing Albuquerque's downtown and urban cores across the country, and whether some recent proposals by Mayor Tim Keller can improve downtown. Check out this timely and important conversation!
Downtown Albuquerque News Editor, Peter Rice, started out young in journalism. As a teenager growing up in Washington State, he worked in community radio and later for a consortium of NPR stations. While attending Colorado College, he wrote features for the Colorado Springs Gazette and the Denver Business Journal. He later worked as a general assignment reporter for the Curry Coastal Pilot on the southern Oregon coast, on the city hall beat for the Albuquerque Tribune, and as an announcer/news writer for KUNM.Having noticed the grim direction the journalism industry was heading, he retreated for several years from the business and put in stints as an electrician, video producer, and public relations jack-of-all-trades. He probably should have been content with this, but the siren call of reporting proved too strong in the end – hence, DAN.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

After making a promise in late July, Albuquerque city officials finally closed arguably the most infamous city park. Right next to Third Street in the shadow of I-40, Coronado Park used to be a typical city park with a dog park and a skate park, too. But in recent years, the park turned into a homeless camp and an increasingly violent place, where drugs were rampant and as many as five homicides took place. So what's next for Coronado Park? Where will the people who've refused services go? We're tackling those questions this week with special guest Peter Rice, founder, owner and editor of the Downtown Albuquerque News. Rice helps dig deeper into the park's history and the potential impact of the park's closure on the greater issue of "how to tackle homelessness."

20 de junio | Nueva YorkLeer esta newsletter te llevará 7 minutos y 34 segundos.📬 En esta entrega, presentamos una nueva entrega de El juego de Megan, el podcast sobre la industria de Hollywood que Emilio Doménech y Pablo Moloco presentan desde 2016. Si te gusta esta versión especial hollywoodiense de La Wikly, ¡háznoslo saber!Más abajo tienes titulares sobre las elecciones de Colombia y la nueva estrategia tiktoker de Meta Platforms.Si te gusta lo que lees y quieres mantenerte informado cada día con estos formatos fáciles e informativos, hazte Premium:Niuyork, Niuyork. Bienvenido a La Wikly.📽 Un despido sorpresaPor Emilio DoménechLo importante: Bob Chapek, consejero delegado de The Walt Disney Company, anunció hace un par de semanas el despido sorpresa de Peter Rice, quien hasta ese momento había encabezado la división de contenido televisivo de la compañía.Como presidente de Disney General Entertainment Content, Rice supervisaba la producción anual de cientos de proyectos para plataformas como Disney+, Hulu, Disney Channel, y las cadenas ABC y FX, entre otras.Explícamelo: el despido es un bombazo en Hollywood, donde son pocas las instancias en las que ejecutivos con la carrera y la reputación de Rice salen por la puerta sin motivo aparente.La versión oficial: que no encajaba con la cultura de Disney, una explicación que ha dado pie a una variedad muy amplia de teorías.La más extendida de ellas: que Chapek se estaba protegiendo de un ejecutivo que le podía relevar en el puesto tras una serie de decisiones del consejero delegado muy criticadas dentro y fuera de la compañía.Contexto: Rice era un ejecutivo con una trayectoria muy exitosa en Fox, donde durante años encabezó divisiones de cine y televisión de la casa de los Murdoch hasta presidir todo con 21st Century Fox.Junto a él estaba Dana Walden, la ejecutiva que le releva en el puesto en Disney. Ambos dieron el salto al estudio de Mickey cuando Disney compró Fox.Chapek es el consejero delegado de Disney desde primeros de 2020, cuando sustituyó a Bob Iger, el ejecutivo que logró casi dos décadas de éxitos que encumbraron a Disney como el estudio más poderoso de Hollywood.Bajo la dirección de Iger, Disney compró Pixar, Marvel, LucasFilm y Fox, marcas que ahora permiten que la compañía tenga franquicias populares y consolidadas, además de estudios de sobra para armar sus plataformas de streaming que le permiten competir con Netflix y cía.Chapek llegaba al puesto de Iger después de más de 20 años en la compañía, presidiendo durante un tiempo la división de parques temáticos y cruceros de Disney.Su designación como CEO de la compañía sorprendió porque ejecutivos como Tom Staggs (ex-director de operaciones) y Kevin Mayer (que supervisó el exitoso lanzamiento de Disney+) siempre sonaron como más favoritos antes de ser descartados.En el podcast, Emilio y Pablo analizan los vaivenes que se han vivido en Hollywood en los últimos días, dando contexto al universo de pasillos de Disney y desgranando la decisión de echar a uno de los ejecutivos más admirados de Tinsletown.¿Desea saber más? Desde 2016, Emilio y Pablo han repasado algunos de los mayores acontecimientos que se han vivido dentro de Disney. Este podcast de 2016 sobre la salida de Tom Staggs aporta mucho contexto histórico sobre los ejecutivos de la compañía. Y en este otro de 2019, analizan el probable triunfo que Disney tenía previsto apuntarse con el desembarco de Disney+.🇨🇴 Gana la izquierdaBy Anita PereyraLo importante: Gustavo Petro y Francia Márquez salieron vencedores en la segunda vuelta de las elecciones de Colombia que se celebraron este domingo, lo que supone la primera victoria de la izquierda en la tercera potencia económica de Latinoamérica.Petro y Márquez vencieron a Rodolfo Hernández y Marelen Castillo, que pasaron a la segunda vuelta como representantes del espectro conservador, aunque con un mensaje anticorrucpión que los desmarcaba del establishment oficialista que lleva gobernando Colombia desde hace generaciones.Explícamelo: el domingo votó el 58,09 por ciento del padrón, un aumento de más de tres puntos porcentuales con respecto de la participación registrada en primera vuelta. Petro y Márquez lograron más de 11,2 millones de votos contra los poco más de 10,5 de Hernández y Castillo.La fórmula de Pacto Histórico ganó en Bogotá, Bolívar, Atlántico y Valle, cuatro de los cinco departamentos que contienen los mayores núcleos poblacionales del país. “Hoy es día de fiesta para el pueblo. Que festeje la primera victoria popular. Que tantos sufrimientos se amortiguen en la alegría que hoy inunda el corazón de la Patria. Esta victoria es para Dios y para el Pueblo y su historia. Hoy es el día de las calles y las plazas”, publicó Petro en redes sociales tras conocer los resultados de la votación.¿Y ahora? La investidura presidencial de Petro será el próximo 7 de agosto, pero queda mucha tela que cortar hasta entonces. Te esperamos en el Twitch de Emilio esta noche a las 20:00 hora peninsular de España para analizar los resultados con Andrea Aldana—y también en la edición especial de La Wikly Electoral con sorpresa que saldrá este miércoles.Más información en Página 12.🎬 Una recomendaciónCon la colaboración de FilminPor Anita PereyraChicago Boys es un documental chileno de 2015 escrito y dirigido por Carola Fuentes y Rafael Valdeavellano. Lleva el nombre del término usado para referirse a un grupo de economistas chilenos que se formaron en la Universidad de Chicago durante la década del 70.La formación económica neoliberal que recibieron en Estados Unidos los condujo a desempeñarse como funcionarios en algunos de los regímenes autoritarios de Latinoamérica, particularmente el que se impuso en Chile tras el golpe de estado al entonces presidente Salvador Allende en 1973.Su trabajo también influyó después en otros países latinoamericanos como Perú y Colombia, donde la economía liberal dejó una imprenta que reverbera hasta hoy.El trabajo de Fuentes y Valdeavellano reconstruye la participación de este grupo de economistas en el diseño del plan económico que se aplicó durante la dictadura militar, con una particularidad brillante: está narrado desde la perspectiva de algunos de sus miembros.Sergio de Castro, ministro de Economía y Hacienda desde 1975 a 1982; y Arnold Haberger, economista estadounidense y profesor de la Universidad de Chicago, son algunos de los entrevistados durante el largometraje.En poco más de 80 minutos, Chicago Boys consigue ilustrar una década crucial para la historia chilena que alberga una crítica inflexible a la impunidad con la que el régimen dictatorial ignoró las necesidades y demandas del pueblo.Chicago Boys está disponible en Filmin.📱 Facebook quiere cambiosPor Marina EnrichLo importante: Facebook envió una nota a sus empleados este abril estableciendo su nueva prioridad: hacer que sus reels, los vídeos cortos de Facebook e Instagram que tanto parecido tienen con los tiktoks, funcionen.Su segunda prioridad: ofrecer las mejores recomendaciones de contenido, no necesariamente las que estén ligadas a las redes personales de familiares y amigos de sus usuarios, que es lo que sobre todo Facebook es desde su concepción.En conclusión, Facebook quiere convertirse en TikTok. Ya lo hemos visto en Instagram con su prioridad por los vídeos cortos en detrimento de las fotos, pero ahora Facebook también quiere sumarse al carro para hacer frente a una base de usuarios cada vez mayor en edad.¿Y qué quiere ser TikTok? La plataforma de ByteDance se define como una plataforma de entretenimiento. Dicen que, a diferencia de Facebook, ellos no son una plataforma social. Y tiene sentido. Cada vez, las plataformas en internet van más sobre el contenido y menos sobre lo social.El otro día, un amigo de mis padres me decía que él no quería tener redes sociales porque quería enterarse de lo que hacían sus amigos cuando quedara con ellos y no a través de una pantalla. Yo le dije que tenía una visión errónea sobre las redes sociales, ya que la mayor parte del contenido que consumimos no es de nuestros familiares y amigos.Entre las generaciones más jóvenes, las redes sociales son las que están reemplazando a la televisión, ya que cada vez abarcan un abanico de contenido más amplio.Ya no es una cuestión de ver qué hicieron ayer tus amigos, sino de entretenerse con vídeos de géneros que van desde los memes hasta la cocina y la salud mental, pasando por la información.De hecho, un 39 por ciento de los jóvenes entre 18 y 24 años se informan de la actualidad a través de las redes sociales.En este sentido, se entiende perfectamente que aplicaciones como BeReal de la que te hablé la semana pasada funcionen entre la gente joven. Los usuarios se ponen rápido al día sobre qué están haciendo sus amigos para después volver al resto de apps que les ofrecen entretenimiento.Y las elecciones de los más jóvenes son relevantes: suelen ser los primeros en detectar tendencias (y en encabezar nuevas). Quizá BeReal sea pasajero, pero sin duda serán ellos los que decidan si el cambio de rumbo de Facebook hace mella.Y tú, ¿cómo ves el futuro de estas guerras de apps que compiten por tu atención?En otro orden de cosas, hoy vuelve Lunes por el mundo con los resultados electorales de Colombia. Para ello, contaremos con la participación de la periodista Andrea Aldana, periodista y columnista en el diario colombiano El Espectador que nos ofrecerá todas las claves sobre la victoria de Gustavo Petro.Podrás seguir el directo a partir de las 20:00 hora peninsular de España en Twitch.Feliz semana, This is a public episode.

Brothers Aaron and Adam Nee are the directing-duo behind the hit movie “The Lost City,” starring Sandra Bullock, Channing Tatum, Daniel Radcliffe, and Brad Pitt. They've been collaborators since childhood. Adam says, “In prepping, we really get inside of each other's heads – and we just know each other so well, and have the same kind of ideas and taste, so that allows us to be on the same page on set.” And in another Disney shakeup, CEO Bob Chapek fired head of television content Peter Rice. Dana Walden is now the Chairman of Disney General Entertainment Content, where she will oversee original programming for Disney's broadcast, cable, and streaming networks.

This week’s Nose is one bubble floating in the cosmic foam of existence. Everything Everywhere All at Once is the second feature film written and directed by Daniels (the filmmaking duo Dan Kwan and Daniel Scheinert). New York Times film critic A.O. Scott called it a “swirl of genre anarchy.” It has recently become indie auteur studio A24’s highest-grossing release to date. Here’s their synopsis: “Everything Everywhere All at Once is a hilarious and big-hearted sci-fi action adventure about an exhausted Chinese American woman who can’t seem to finish her taxes.” And: It’s Pride Month. Which means, among other things, that corporations and other institutions will hamfistedly shoehorn rainbows and other tokens of “inclusion” into their logos and advertising, a phenomenon known as “rainbow capitalism.” Some other stuff that happened this week, give or take: Kate Bush, “Running Up That Hill,” and the End of Music Charts As We Knew Them Thanks to ‘Stranger Things,’ one of art pop’s most reclusive figures has almost inadvertently found herself with a top-10 charting hit.

Hosts Janice Min, Richard Rushfield and Tatiana Siegel are joined by Ankler contributing editor Peter Kiefer to discuss the fallout and what it means for Chapek, who once again finds himself stepping into a PR minefield. Rushfield brings the juice, talking about the ‘gang fight' within Disney and how Dana Walden's contract renegotiation underway may have played a part in the timing. However, “the town is outraged at the treatment of Peter Rice after 30 years of service to the Disney-Fox companies, that he's told to hit the bricks after a seven-minute conversation, where he is told that after 30 years, he's not a ‘cultural fit,'” he says. “There's no door prize that he gets with this.” Siegel notes that the Rice case breaks with Hollywood's soft-landing tradition for other top executives like Warner Bros.' Toby Emmerich, who was allowed a dignified exit with a production deal. In other topics: Kiefer joins to discuss a new lawsuit rocking L.A.'s elite school community over a “woke” curriculum accused of discriminating against Jews; the team talks Johnny Depp and his post-defamation suit victory lap (he's got 12.1 million TikTok followers after his first two days on the platform); and finally, they applaud the effective and emotional plea for stricter gun laws in Mr. McConaughey Goes to Washington.

Odile Decq nasce a Laval, in Francia, il 18 luglio 1955; studia architettura all'Università di Rennes e a La Villette, la scuola nazionale superiore di architettura di Parigi. Nel 1980 con il marito Benoît Cornette fonda lo studio ODBC e i due ottengono presto un discreto successo vincendo il concorso per la realizzazione della sede della Banque Populaire de L'Ouest e d'Armorique a Rennes, in collaborazione con il famoso ingegnere Peter Rice. Nel 1998 la coppia ha un grave incidente stradale e Benoît, 45 anni, muore. "Come farà una donna, da sola, a guidare uno studio di architettura?", tutti al tempo se lo chiedono ... ma la "dame noire" dell'architettura non se ne cura, progetterà dal cucchiaio alla città aggiungendo al suo amato nero una punta di rosso ... e riceverà una serie pressoché infinita di premi e riconoscimenti!

Episode 52 That Great Business Show - Eamonn O'Reilly, CEO, Dublin Port CompanyEamonn discusses every aspect of Dublin Port, handling 84% of the country's container and trailer traffic.Dublin Port (DP) has 4,000 people working within its walls, but not working directly for DP (165 people are directly employed).The majority of workers work for companies like Stena, P&O, ICG etc.DP had turnover of €89m last year and he explains how DP makes its money.He explains why ships lie offshore DP for various reasons, over weekends.Eamonn tells us the history of hobblers and how that has changed with regular slots for ships.Ferries have fixed slots, based on best times for them commercially.DP is beginning to reach constraints capacity, and rail won't play a major role.They're going to try to squeeze more activity within the port, particularly cut down the dwell time of goods within the port.You can stack containers up to about six to be efficient.He cites Valparaiso in Chile, which is the most efficient port in the world, which passes about three times more goods through than DP.Biggest containers into DP can carry 1,200 containers but ships can carry up to 22,000.Brexit has changed the profile of the business at DP, as trade flows, like water, follows the line of least resistance.They've seen an enormous growth of goods coming directly from continental Europe.He says that trying to build houses on the DP land is an appalling idea and he explains the history of Bremore Harbour.One metre of quay wall can cost €100,000 and a quay might run 300 metres.To build Bremore he reckons might cost €4 billion plus and doubles when lands have to be remediated. The quickest all of this could be built would be 20 years.DP is the 'single most important transport infrastructure in the country'.3D printing will replace some traditional manufacturing which will have an effect on trade and therefore port volume.There will be a decoupling between port volumes and GDP growth.Cruise ship bookings are allocated two years ahead.He discusses road access to the port and the need to introduce road pricing, to help manage the capacity of our roads infrastructure.DP plans will mean a new private bridge next to the East Link or Tom Clarke Bridge. Pre-application discussions have already started with an Bord Pleanála. They're working on a 4km greenway from East Point business park, down the Tolka estuary, to the most eastern extreme point of DP, where the boats enter the port.And Eamonn's 'hire in a heartbeat' is Peter Rice, a structural engineer, who made possible the Sydney Opera Centre, the Lloyds building in London and others.

Money woes.It sounds like the title of a blues song but, ask Peter Rice, Chief Banking Officer at Workers Credit Union in Massachusetts, and he will tell you it's not an oldie but today's lyric and he can prove it with a recent Central Mass survey that found 65% of the residents said they were unsure, stressed, or extremely stressed about money. Ouch. that's a lot of anxiety but, said Rice, it's exactly a place where a credit union could and should help and, in that way, it will also gain a competitive edge.In the process, Workers has introduced a new branch concept - called PlanIt - which, get this, features an interactive hologram named Olivia and a short, perky robot named Pepper. I don't kid you.That's because the Workers hope with its new branch is that it will be welcoming, inclusive, but also will help inspire members to achieve their personal financial wellness.A stat that hit Rice like a brick is that most of us - even the seemingly well off - don't have $400 in ready cash to deal with financial emergencies and yet this past 18 months have been a text book illustration of how the unexpected and unimagined can become our reality.We need to be financially well to deal with these speed bumps in our life highway.A goal of the PlanIt centers - Workers has opened three and has plans for more - is to help members to feel empowered and also to get them more engaged with the credit union.And, yeah, people do come into the branches to interact with Olivia- who is multi lingual and very helpful - and also with Pepper who is cheery.Is this the future of the credit union branch?Is this how a credit union can win the battle for the member?Expect to hear challenges to credit union orthodoxies in this podcast. Rice thinks into the future and in this podcast he tells his route to getting there. By the way that accent you hear is not a rogue Boston lilt. It's from Rice's native Ireland.

Hello and welcome to the Alcohol Alert, brought to you by The Institute of Alcohol Studies. In this edition:Home drinking increasingly becomes the new normal during lockdownEconomics think tank study says a reformed duty system would improve MUP’s effectivenessAlcohol Health Alliance UK pricing survey finds that alcohol is still being sold at pocket money pricesScottish Health Action on Alcohol Problems call for all MSP candidates to promise a total ban on alcohol advertising ahead of the 2021 electionsIAS to hold an online event presenting new findings on alcohol policy and nudge theory 🎵 Podcast feature 🎵The Scottish Government launches a free FASD eLearning resourceWe hope you enjoy our roundup of stories below: please feel free to share. Thank you.Lockdown: home drinking becomes the new normalNovember saw the UK enter into a second lockdown, as ministers realised that the tier system for controlling the virus could no longer contain the rising R rates throughout the UK. As a result, all pubs were forced to close from 05 November until 02 December (Morning Advertiser, 31 Oct), and anticipated bans such as that of alcohol consumed on ScotRail trains came into force (STV News, 16 Nov).The penultimate month of the calendar year was also a time for reflecting on how people’s drinking habits had changed since the first lockdown.A study from alcohol industry-funded body Drinkaware found that women were a bigger influence than men out of the 26% of people whose alcohol intake increased between March and June (Daily Mail, 02 Nov), the primary reason for doing so being that they had ‘more free time available’.The Royal College of Psychiatrists observed that nearly half (45%) of its psychiatrists had seen a rise in patients whose alcohol or drug use had contributed to a deterioration in their mental health during the pandemic (The Telegraph, 15 Nov), Dr Katherine Severi, IAS chief executive, explained that ‘the closure of bars and restaurants had driven people into drinking at home, which meant it was not only cheaper than buying in a restaurant but also that people were consuming more.’Data from Public Health England (PHE) also showed that older age groups all significantly increased their alcohol intake during lockdown, with a fifth of those aged 45 to 74 years drinking more than 21 units a week. Those aged 55 to 64 who drank at least a pint a day (three units) jumped from 17·4% to 20·6% with one in 20 consuming more than 50 units weekly, almost three pints a day.And an Opinion Matters poll of more than 1,000 people aged over 50 years, commissioned by We Are With You found that: 20% were drinking more since March; 10% earlier in the day; and more than half drink at a level that could cause health problems now or in the future, a cause of great concern for 35% of those surveyed who are children of those parents. Projected tax receipts and sales data appeared to confirm that off-licence vendors of alcohol have profited substantially from the pandemic. The Office for Budget Responsibility’s economic and fiscal outlook revised alcohol duties upward by an average £1 billion a year, as receipts in 2020/21 held up much better than assumed (24 Nov):The loss in receipts from closures of pubs and restaurants has been more than offset by higher sales in supermarkets and other shops. Alcohol consumption has therefore been one of the few tax bases left relatively unscathed by the virus.The 2020 British Lifestyles Report from consumer research group Mintel estimated that annual retail value sales of alcoholic drinks will grow at its fastest rate for at least a decade – 16% – to reach £25.5 billion in 2020, ‘as people trade nights out for evenings in’ (20 Nov). Spending per household on alcohol is expected to average £129 in 2020.Jack Duckett, Mintel associate director of consumer lifestyles research, also wrote of the potential for further growth from drinks makers appealing to the mature drinker:The growth in the size of the older population over the next five years, and the fact that they are most likely to be insulated from the financial impact of the pandemic, makes targeting the ‘grey pound’ particularly timely for all brands including alcoholic drinks.In Ireland, the Revenue discovered a slump in drinking outside the home, as their sales data recorded a 4.5% fall in alcohol consumption since the start of the year, mainly because of pubs forced to close for lockdowns. Alcohol Action Ireland warned that drinkers ‘had largely substituted their on-trade activity with unregulated home drinking’, a sentiment echoed by the Vintners’ Federation of Ireland chief Padraig Cribben. He told the Irish Sun it was ‘obvious that because of the pandemic a massive volume of alcohol is now consumed at home’ (03 Nov).And where drinking patterns have moved indoors, so have increased risks of alcohol-related harm. Consultant psychiatrist Rebecca Lawrence wrote in The Guardian that although it is difficult to determine the exact picture of British drinking habits during lockdown, we can ‘intuit’ some things (18 Nov):I worry about those who were drinking just a bit too much before who have now tipped into problem drinking. It doesn’t take a lot, and there are many on this uncertain edge. Stress levels are high, with fears about infection or economic insecurity taking their toll.Many of my patients who are already alcohol-dependent tell me they have relapsed due to boredom, and, even more importantly, lack of any human contact. When we talk about relapse prevention, we talk about seeing people, talking to people, going to groups, and all this is up the spout at present. There are groups online, but not everyone can access these. In any case, it’s not the same, as those of us who are all Zoomed out will testify to.Sometimes too much contact is the problem: families are forced together, something that can be hard even for the most loving partners or parents. Alcohol can be a form of mental, if not physical, escape.Whether newly dependent or relapsed, what’s clear is that people need help to get through this.Funding public health: Winter plans and ‘Spending Reviews’In the final week of lockdown, Prime Minister Boris Johnson revealed the government’s post-lockdown winter plan to the House of Commons: a return to the tier system, with the added detail of businesses to be permitted to serve alcohol ‘only as part of a substantial meal’ in designated tier 2 zones of the country, a move unlikely to curb increasingly routinised home drinking habits and their potential harms (23 Nov).Furthermore, the lack of sufficient services for the rising numbers of people struggling with alcohol dependency and other substance misuse problems led to calls from the Local Government Association (LGA) – which represents councils responsible for public health – for the chancellor to invest in vital public health services ahead of the Spending Review (LGA, 21 Nov):COVID-19 [has] exposed existing health inequalities which need to be levelled up if we are to protect our communities in future, and so to address this divide, the Spending Review ought to have reversed the £700 million of public health funding reductions experienced by councils over the previous five years.Chancellor of the Exchequer Rishi Sunak authorised the provision of £254 million of additional resource funding in 2021/22, to ‘bolster’ substance misuse and frontline support services, for tackling homelessness and rough sleeping (HM Treasury, 25 Nov).As we head into the winter, with alcohol-related health outcomes worsen for many drinkers across the UK because of the drastic change to consumption habits induced by the pandemic, the calls of local authorities to support public health services may yet grow louder.Reformed duty system would improve MUP’s effectivenessEconomics think tank the Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS) have published new research showing that while minimum unit prices for alcohol (MUP) are reasonably well targeted at heavy drinkers, they may come at the cost of reducing tax revenues (20 Nov).Using data on millions of alcohol purchases made by Scottish and English households, the analysis shows that:Prior to the introduction of the minimum unit price, half of all transactions for alcohol bought in shops in Scotland were below 50p per unit. The minimum unit price led to a 5% increase in the average price per unit, but some very cheap products saw their prices double, while more expensive products were unaffected.This led to an 11% fall in units purchased per adult per week, with larger falls for more heavily drinking households.However, the IFS fear that MUP creates windfall revenues for the alcohol industry, while reducing revenue for HM Treasury:The analysis finds that if the 50p minimum unit price were extended to the whole of the UK under the existing system of alcohol taxes, then tax revenue would fall by around £390 million per year.This is in addition to projected annual losses from recent changes to alcohol duties averaging £200m to 2024/25.The report’s authors conclude that ‘a minimum unit price, combined with a more coherent set of taxes on alcohol, would be just as well targeted at heavy drinkers and would limit the fall in revenue for the exchequer’.Alternatively, they propose replacing the current system of duties with ‘a two-rate structure that taxes alcohol in proportion to its alcohol content, with a higher rate on strong spirits’, which would lead to an increase in tax revenue of over £70 million.One of the report’s authors, associate director Kate Smith, said:The current system of alcohol duties is incoherent – for example, if you prefer a pint of beer to cider, you may currently pay more than twice as much tax for a drink with the same alcohol content. Brexit offers a valuable opportunity to improve the way we tax alcohol. A simple reform that taxes drinks in proportion to their alcohol content, with a higher rate on strong spirits, targets the purchases of heavy drinkers while raising tax revenue.Public health experts from Alcohol Health Alliance UK, the Foundation for Liver Research, the House of Lords, and the pro-vice-chancellor of health and life sciences at the University of Bristol, welcomed the report, stating that the measures proposed by the IFS could save more than 5,000 lives over the next decade.In a letter to The Times (23 Nov), they wrote:Although the money from minimum unit pricing alone stays with the retailer, the saving of costs to the NHS of reduced drinking outweighs that loss. Also, if combined with a scaled and consistent alcohol duty system to offset some of the wider costs of alcohol harm to society, these measures could save more than 5,000 lives in the next decade.Alcohol prices are ‘small change’ to drinkers, survey findsAdapted from the Alcohol Health Alliance UK press releaseAlcohol continues to be sold at pocket money prices in England, with it being possible to drink the weekly low-risk drinking guideline of 14 units of alcohol for less than the price of a cup of high street coffee, according to a new report from the Alcohol Health Alliance (AHA) UK, a coalition of more than 55 organisations including medical royal colleges and health charities (10 Nov).Comparing the prices of alcoholic drinks sold in shops and supermarkets across England, Scotland and Wales, researchers found the cheapest products were all sold in England, the only nation of the three not to have a minimum unit price of 50 pence.Cider is the cheapest available product in England and is being sold for as little as 19p per unit of alcohol, meaning that consumers can reach the weekly low-risk drinking guideline of 14 units of alcohol for just £2·68 – about the price of a large coffee in high street coffee chains. A single bottle of the cheapest cider also contains more alcohol than eight pints of beer – and costs 8 pence less than a single pint in a pub.For the price of a standard cinema ticket (£7·11), you could buy two bottles of wine, containing 19·5 units and have 13 pence change leftover, and a one-litre bottle of vodka, which contains 37·5 units, is cheaper than a large pizza at Dominos (£14·99).In light of the findings, the AHA calls on the government to commit to tackling cheap, high-strength alcohol in its review of the alcohol duty system and through introducing minimum unit pricing in England. AHA chair, professor Sir Ian Gilmore, said:The low price of high strength alcohol continues to cause immeasurable damage to the health of our nation. Alcohol is linked to 80 deaths in the UK every day, as well as seven types of cancer and stroke.To tackle the harm alcohol causes, we need to urgently address its price. Alcohol duty is currently too low to cover the costs of alcohol harm to the NHS and other public services. Public Health England estimates that alcohol costs the UK at least £27 billion a year. Yet over the past five years, alcohol duty has raised just £10·5-£12·1 billion annually. To pay for the costs to society that alcohol imposes, stronger drinks should be taxed more. Reforming alcohol duty will help create a fairer system for everyone as well as improving our nation’s health.With alcohol-related hospital admissions at record highs, and liver disease rates on the rise, we can’t afford for alcohol to remain at such low prices.In other researchNew annual mortality and morbidity statistics for Scotland showed a mixed outlook: there was a substantial improvement for the former, but not so for the latter.The number of alcohol-specific deaths was 1,020 deaths in 2019, 10% down on the previous year’s tally of 1,136 (National Records of Scotland (NRS), 24 Nov).2019 represents the first substantial decrease in recent years, after a period of generalincrease since 2012, and is only the fourth occasion when there has been a reduction in alcohol-specific deaths of around 10% or more in a single year (in 2007, 2009 and 2012) since records began. However, the NRS was quick to note that ‘although an annual decrease of this magnitude is notable, further years will be required to see if this reduction continues and conclude that this is a sustained shift in alcohol-specific deaths in Scotland.’In comparison, annual alcohol-related hospital statistics show incremental changes in admissions (35,781) and patient (23,685) numbers to general acute hospitals in 2019/20 compared with the previous year (Public Health Scotland, 17 Nov). There has been no significant improvement in numbers since 2012/13.Researchers from the Behaviour and Health Research Unit at the University of Cambridge have developed a preliminary typology of drinking behaviours from existing evidence of the impact of glassware design on those behaviours, as a basis for reducing alcohol consumption to improve population health (Health Psychology Review, 18 Nov).Despite the ‘paucity of evidence’ over the issue, the team were able to cut a distinction between macro (measures of drinking outcomes involving consumption, or proxies for consumption) and micro (a form of short-term influence on drinking) -drinking behaviours. They also explored the roles of two sets of possible underlying mechanisms – perception and affordance – in determining a drinker’s actions.The study’s authors concluded that using this typology as a framework and starting point for understanding the micro-structure of a drinking episode may harness important insights for developing interventions aimed at reducing consumption, such as how an intervention works to reduce intake, plus other important effects on drinking behaviours ‘that may not be captured by a “macro” measure of drinking in a given study’.Almost three quarters of 15 and 16-year-olds in Ireland have tried alcohol, with around half of these using alcohol 'to make social gatherings more fun', according to the new iteration of the European Schools Project for Alcohol and Other Drugs (ESPAD) (Irish Health, 17 Nov). The survey of almost 2,000 secondary schoolchildren found that 73% of respondents had tried alcohol, while 41% had drunk alcohol in the previous 30 days. 49% said drinking made social gatherings more fun, while almost as many (48%) did so to enjoy a party. The most common age that teenagers began drinking alcohol was 15 (52%), and a sixth (16%) said they had been drunk in the previous 30 days.The survey also found that increased alcohol use among the teens was associated with lower parental education levels and lower parental monitoring, truancy and lower school grades.Nearly two in three people feel the current ‘drink responsibly’ message on bottles is too vague and should be replaced with specific health warnings, specialists at the Priory Group addiction and mental health service found (LBC, 18 Nov).In a poll of 1,000 adults for Alcohol Awareness Week, 59% said beverages should display a cancer warning and eight in ten feel the UK ‘has a problem’ with binge drinking.The 2019/20 adult substance misuse treatment statistics report published by Public Health England suggests that an estimated 82% of adults in need of specialist treatment for alcohol do not receive it (26 Nov).Alongside small year-on-year changes to the numbers of adults in treatment, the figures showed that people in treatment for alcohol only are the second largest group (28%) of all adults in treatment, the majority of people (59%) who started treatment for drug and alcohol problems in 2019/20, said they had a problem with alcohol, with 65% (50,957) reporting that it was their only problem substance, and although still relatively high, the proportion of people with alcohol only problems leaving treatment free of dependence has fallen three percentage points since 2015/2016 (from 62%), hinting at the start of a declining trend.SHAAP manifesto calls for total ban on alcohol advertisingAlcohol control campaign group Scottish Health Action on Alcohol Problems (SHAAP) have urged every candidate in next year’s Holyrood election to support a ‘total ban’ on alcohol advertising (STV News, 19 Nov).Publishing their manifesto ahead of the vote in May, they list four ‘focus areas’ aimed at reducing alcohol-related harms that all parties should support:Affordability, availability and attractivenessInvesting in and improving treatment and support servicesSupporting recovery and reducing health inequalitiesProtecting children and young peopleThe manifesto states that ‘as we approach the Scottish parliament election of 2021, it is more important than ever that we do not lose sight of long-term public health measures that can improve the health and wellbeing of everyone in Scotland, build the resilience of our NHS and local care services, and benefit the economy’.SHAAP chair Dr Peter Rice said: Covid-19 has shone a light on the patchy and often disjointed nature of alcohol treatment service provision, even prior to lockdown, and we do not yet know what long-term impact the pandemic will have on people’s drinking behaviours, though research so far indicates that heavier drinkers have increased their consumption.Our 2021 manifesto highlights cost-effective, evidence-based policies that, if properly implemented, will work to ensure that Covid-19 does not exacerbate alcohol-related harm and health inequalities in Scotland and that we are able to meet long-term public health goals that are essential if we are to build a healthier, fairer future.Online event on alcohol policy and nudge theory🎵 Podcast feature 🎵The Institute of Alcohol Studies (IAS) is holding a seminar exploring the latest evidence on nudge theory in alcohol policy, in conjunction with a new report (02 Dec).Using a case study of UK Government alcohol policy since 2017, IAS research and policy officer Lucy Bryant examined the framing of individuals and alcohol industry actors within public health nudge policy interventions, revealing ways in which nudge theories risked undermining support for better evidenced public health alcohol measures such as pricing interventions in practice. Bryant’s findings will be presented alongside new research from Professor Mark Petticrew (London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine), as well as insights from the gambling field from Philip Newall PhD (postdoctoral researcher at CQUniversity's Experimental Gambling Research Laboratory).Dr Gillian Shorter of Queen's University Belfast, who is chairing the event, said:With alcohol implemented in over half the Sustainable Development Goals, now really is a good time to act with responsible policies to preserve health… so we posit to you: to what extent can we use nudge policies for effective behaviour change, and to what extent do they crowd out other potentially more effective policy options? We invite you to come along, have your say, and tell us what you think.For more details of the event and to register your attendance, please view the image below, or click on this link.FASD: Invisible, Not InconsequentialAdapted from the Queen's Nursing Institute Scotland websiteThe Scottish Government has launched a free FASD eLearning resource on the NHS Education for Scotland (NES) website, a move that could have significant benefits for professionals and the individuals/families affected if widely used and shared.Foetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) is both the most common and the most overlooked neurodevelopmental condition in Scotland. The Scottish Government estimates that approximately 172,000 children, young people and adults across the country have their lives and life chances adversely affected by FASD. And yet, only a small proportion of people with FASD have been diagnosed, actively assisted or effectively supported.Created by a Scottish Government Expert Group, the eLearning resource aims to help overcome the longstanding misdiagnosis, misunderstanding and mistreatment of people with this life-altering condition.

Alcohol use amongst the general population has become more polarised during the COVID-19 pandemic, with those who previously drank heavily reportedly now drinking even more. It is therefore vital that those in the at-risk groups for severe dependency are identified and supported to cut down their intake safely. In this podcast, Dr Peter Rice talks to Dr Jennifer Powell about the most effective ways to help alcohol-dependent patients self-manage their alcohol use during the pandemic and beyond.

Sir Ove Nyquist Arup sei ein unorganisierter und willkürlicher Perfektionist gewesen. So sagte es zumindest Peter Rice, der erste Bauingenieur nach Arup, der mit der britischen Goldmedaille für Architektur ausgezeichnet wurde. Es lässt sich sicherlich viel darüber diskutieren, welches Adjektiv man verwendet, aber dass Arup ein Perfektionist war sollte spätestens nach der siebten Episode des Podcast Baustelle Bauwesen jedem klar sein. Ove Arup war nämlich kein klassischer Bauingenieur, denn er studierte zuvor Philosophie und machte es zu seiner Lebensaufgabe, die Zusammenarbeit zwischen Architekt und Bauingenieur zu revolutionieren. All dies verpackte er unter der Idee des „total design“ und wurde damit zu einem der Pioniere des 20. Jahrhunderts. Sein persönliches Interesse für Ästhetik und Kunst machte es ihm zunächst schwierig im Bauingenieurwesen der 1920er anzukommen. In einer Welt, in der es bei Bauprojekten immer nur darum ging enorme Lasten von Bauwerken sicher in den Baugrund zu bringen, gab es die Vision, als Bauingenieur an den zeitgenössischen architektonischen Ansätzen mitzuarbeiten, noch nicht. Ove Arup war aber interessiert an den verträumten Ideen von Architekten, wie die von Le Corbusier, Berthold Lubetkin oder Walter Gropius. Denn sie zeigten wo es mit dem damals noch neuartigen Baustoff Stahlbeton hingehen kann. In den 1930er Jahren kam er dann in Kontakt mit Lubetkin und entwarf zusammen mit ihm den Penguin Pool des Londoner Zoos oder das Highpoint 1 in London Highgate, der Öffentlichkeit noch unbekannte Konstruktionsarten. Auf die Zusammenarbeit mit Architekten legte er immer sein größtes Augenmerk. Dies führte sicherlich zur Bürogründung des renommierten und noch heute weltweit aktiven Planungsbüros Arup. Aus seiner Schule entwuchsen zahlreiche internationale Ingenieurgrößen. Ove Arups Meisterwerk ist ganz klar die Kingsgate Bridge in Durham, diese entwarf er und ganz nach seinem Motto des „total design“ begleitete er dessen Bau bis zur Fertigstellung. Michi & Philip sind ganz klar fasziniert von seiner Philosophie und finden dass gerade Bauingenieurinnen und Bauingenieure mehr über seine Person wissen sollten. Sie versuchen die Definition des „total design“ zu erklären. Und fragen sich, wieso dieser auch heute noch nicht branchenübergreifend Anwendung findet, obwohl doch Arup vor über 70 Jahren schon bewiesen hat, dass diese Arbeitsweise vielversprechend ist. Einerseits wird dies an der Erfolgsgeschichte seines gegründeten Büros klar. Andererseits gibt es aber auch Planer wie das Buro Happold oder Expedition Engineering die von ehemaligen Arup Mitarbeitern gegründet wurden und Arups Arbeitsweise gelernt haben. Sie zeigen nämlich ganz klar wie groß der Einfluss Ove Arups auch heute noch ist. Ove Arup war nie Professor einer Universität, dennoch hat er gleichzeitig Ingenieure und Architekten mit seiner Philosophie ausgebildet.

Alcohol Alert, August 2019: Following on from NHS Health Scotland’s evaluation that minimum unit pricing legislation is being effectively enforced, this episode looks at the ways in which this is being done. Dr Peter Rice from Scottish Health Action on Alcohol Problems (SHAAP) describes how the Scottish legal enforcement framework operates, such as the role of Licensing Standards Officers in offering expertise and mediation to license owners, and the frameworks basis in previous compliance schemes such as test purchases.

Architects, on occasion, become household names – Engineers generally don’t. Yet without engineers, a building can not become a reality, making the leap from a design on paper to a standing structure. It is remarkable how few of us have heard the name Peter Rice – the Irish engineer behind many of the twentieth centuries most stunning global buildings, including the Sydney Opera House and the Pompidou Centre in Paris. Dying at only 57 in 1992, he is undoubtedly one of the most important Irish figures of architectural history. Donal Fallon has more with another episode of Hidden Histories.

Alcohol Alert, July 2017: Five years after Scotland legislated for Minimum Unit Pricing (MUP), judges at the UK Supreme Court in London have just concluded their latest deliberations over whether the legislation is incompatible with European Union law and therefore unlawful under the Scotland Act 1998. It has twice been ruled legal in Scottish courts during that period. So why hasn’t MUP been implemented yet? We met with Dr Peter Rice to help us chart the history of one of the most hotly contested pieces of legislation in the UK in recent years.
