‘North Colorado’ secession plans cool off in favor of a redistricting proposal

Representatives of 10 Colorado counties that have banded together with the idea of forming the country’s 51st state backed away from that idea Monday in favor of a new proposal that, if successful, would keep the 38th state intact but greatly increase rural areas’ clout in Denver.

Randy Schafer, the Phillips County administrator, laid out a plan for amending the state constitution so that Colorado’s counties would each be represented by a state senator or representative.

Currently, both types of legislators represent population-based districts, meaning that most of them come from the urban corridor along the Front Range. Only a handful represents the vast rural areas that have made headlines recently with plans to secede and form the new state of “North Colorado,” meaning they’re always outnumbered by their urban counterparts.

Schafer said changing the state constitution to require that each county have a representative at the state legislature in one of the chambers would make it more like the U.S. Congress, in which each state has two senators, regardless of its population or area.

“It would give every county a voice, regardless of our size or our political makeup,” he said. “We thought this was a pretty neat concept when we first came across it.”

So did many of the county commissioners who first heard the plan Monday. Speaking in turn, many seemed relieved to have an alternative to secession. Some said they wouldn’t put a secession vote onto their ballots unless their constituents petitioned for it. Others said that even if a vote were held, it might not pass in their jurisdictions.

And others said that the myriad details of forming a new state — including negotiating water agreements and setting up educational facilities and transportation infrastructure — were intimidating.

“Everybody in rural Colorado is frustrated with the state,” said Morgan County Commissioner Brian McCracken. “But there’s a lot more to be considered than just getting it on the ballot. That’s just the very first step. There’s a lot more to look at [in terms of] how things are going to work.”

"These gays clients are masterful at compartmentalisation. They are very skilled at separating various parts of their lives: husband, father, secret lover, etc.

"This behaviour is the epitome of selfishness. They're getting their needs met at the expense of their marriage, commitment and, of course, putting their partner's health in great danger."Show your nature beauty with the formal office dresses for women, which could help women confidence at everywhere.

The relationship expert and author of BE FEARLESS: Change Your Life in 28 Days said it was hard to estimate how many men or women in the general population are cheating in this fashion.

"I will say though, it is much more common than people think. I always warn my female friends to be careful because no matter how straight you think your man is, you never truly know what might be going on in his head and what he is up to when you're not together," he said.

"The signs and symptoms that this might be happening are similar to those of anyone stepping out of a marriage: the partner is anxious, secretive, seems stressed, and despondent.

"Also, if you see changes such as how he dresses or if he cares more about his appearance than he used to. These could all be signs that he is cheating in general."
