During the last decade, hundreds of freestanding emergency facilities have cropped up across the country, fueled by a building boom that began in Texas.
In Tennessee, there are seven freestanding emergency rooms, which mirror those attached to hospitals and treat a wide variety of injuries and critical medical issues.
But not in Memphis.
Or in Shelby County.
Or in West Tennessee.
But that could change if Memphis-based Baptist Memorial Health Care wins approval in a few weeks from the Tennessee Health Services and Development Agency (HSDA) for a proposed facility near the intersection of Interstate 40 and Airline Road near Arlington, one of the fastest-growing residential area in Shelby County.
The healthcare behemoth has applied several times for - and each time been denied - permission to construct a freestanding emergency facility during the last few years.
A year ago the HSDA voted 4-4 on A Baptist request to construct a $10 million freestanding emergency facility with eight treatment rooms in Arlington. The tie vote on the proposal - a joint agreement between Baptist and Regional One Health - meant that approval was denied.
But hospital representatives are set to go before the HSDA board on August 20 to appeal that decision and this time they're hopeful the votes will fall in their favor.
"There's a large growth in population in this area and a need for emergency room services, particularly from surrounding counties where there are no longer full-service regional hospitals," said Zach Chandler, executive vice president and chief strategy officer for Baptist. "In emergencies, when minutes matter, having quick access to emergency care can mean the difference between life and death or permanent damage."
Access to nearby emergency care would be benefit residents in rural eastern Shelby County, Chandler said, as well as patients in Fayette and Haywood counties. Brownsville's Haywood Park Community Hospital closed in 2014 and Methodist Fayette Hospital in Somerville closed in 2015.
And because the freestanding emergency department would be affiliated with Baptist, the level of care would be the same as in a hospital.
"This would be fully staffed, open 24/7 and offer the same services as any of our hospital emergency rooms," Chandler said. "Emergency room visits continue to rise and we believe the need for freestanding emergency departments will continue to increase, too."
Dr. Lee Berkenstock, MD, a state delegate to the AMA and past president of the Memphis Medical Society, agreed.
"From the 1950s through the 1970s, there was growth of regional hospitals in more rural areas, but today it's just not viable to have full-service hospitals in many of these areas and many of those hospitals have closed," Berkenstock said. "Healthcare has changed and improved and the business model is reflective of the times. We have to be smaller and more agile. No longer do you see someone going in for an appendectomy and staying in the hospital for a couple weeks. Hip replacement procedures have improved so much that hospital stays are measured in days, not weeks, followed by rehab and home."
There have been more than a dozen applications for freestanding emergency departments in Tennessee during the last decade, according to Jim Christoffersen, general counsel for HSDA, and more continue to file in. But, he believes, the state's strict approval process and governance of these facilities means that it is unlikely Tennessee will experience the same kind of explosive growth in freestanding emergency departments as in states like Texas.
"In Texas, there is no requirement that a freestanding emergency department be affiliated with a hospital like we have in Tennessee," Christoffersen said. "There is a very detailed structure about the process in Tennessee to ensure that these facilities meet the needs of the communities where they're located."
The Texas boom began after a state ruling in 2009 that allowed freestanding emergency departments to be built and operated independent of hospital affiliation. The result was what some medical professionals have described as a "Wild West" surge in healthcare entrepreneurship that saw the rise of hundreds of independent freestanding emergency departments in less than a decade.
Rob Morris is CEO and cofounder of Complete Care, which operates about two dozen freestanding emergency departments in Texas and Colorado. They treat more than 100,000 patients each year. He is also board chairman of the Texas Association of Freestanding Emergency Centers and on the board of the National Association of Freestanding Emergency Centers. He acknowledges that there were some bumps along the way in Texas, but believes that his company is the face of the future.
"I think we're starting to see the free market at work. We offer the same services as a full-service hospital emergency department, but with a smaller footprint, excellent specialized care and much lower wait times," Morris said. "Some operators made poor site selections and eventually closed, but I think we're starting to see a course correction and I'm optimistic that this industry will emerge stronger because of it."
Baptist officials remain optimistic that state officials will agree the time has come for a freestanding emergency department in Shelby County. And they plan to present a compelling appeal at their hearing next month.
"Emergency room visits continue to grow and grow and grow and this facility would help us decompress the ER at our East Memphis campus," Chandler said. "We want to provide excellent, specialized care to those who need it. This is right for patients and right for the community."
Emergency Care Facilities: There Are Differences
The proliferation of freestanding emergency facilities built across the nation during the last decade - between 400 to 600, according to some industry experts - is changing the medical care landscape.
But these emergency facilities differ from minor medical and urgent care clinics, both in location and in treatment options.
Freestanding emergency departments must be affiliated with a hospital in Tennessee, but in states such as Texas they may be independently owned and operated. These facilities are staffed by physicians and emergency medical personnel 24/7 and are equipped to treat serious and life-threatening injuries.
Urgent care facilities may be freestanding walk-in clinics or located inside pharmacies such as CVS or Walgreens, or in retailers such as Target. These facilities treat less severe conditions such as sore throat, runny nose and flu and typically offer more limited hours of operation. Patients at these clinics are seen by medical personnel, but not always treated by a physician.
There are numerous minor medical and urgent care clinics throughout Shelby County that offer varying levels of treatment. Campbell Clinic Orthopaedics, for example, offers five walk-in centers that specialize in sports medicine and orthopedics. Most are open until 4 p.m., but two of the facilities are open during the evening and all treat breaks, sprains, strains and other conditions.
Campbell Clinic employs more than 500 medical and support staff across its system, including about 50 physicians affiliated with the organization.
"We offer full services, including X-rays and clinical diagnoses, and typically our walk-in clinics offer time savings with shorter waiting periods than at emergency rooms," a Campbell Clinic spokesperson said. "Patients at our outpatient clinics receive outstanding quality care, but treatment usually results in less cost and lower insurance claims."

Radio Free Death is a nightly transmission at midnight that has ghostly origins. It plays a major role in Orpheus, as well as a small part in the Time of Judgment.
Disguised as a burst of static on a satellite TV channel, courtesy of the Horror Broadband Ghost, the broadcast is about a minute long and details the goings on in the world of the dead. Sometimes the information is little more than musings or speculation, but at other times it contains very specific warnings to specific groups of people, most notably those affiliated with the Orpheus Group. On rare occasions, where there are high amounts of danger for ghosts, there will be more than one broadcast in a night.
The voice and power behind Radio Free Death is Terrence Green, one of the Flatliners from Orpheus Group's controversial Project Flatline. Seeking redemption and exceptionally talented in the Haunter Shade, he is one of the first to realize that the plans of the projecting firms and the presence of pigment and pigment cults are more than what they appear to be at first glance. He has a close ally, ex-Terrel and Squib agent Grace Ishida, who helps him gather information and assist ghosts and people who have been put into bad situations because of the manipulations of a higher power. He eventually seeks to gather the ghost and projecting community into a unified force to fight whatever is out there.

Earthquakes can cause massive loss of life, often because buildings fail and people get trapped inside.
Great advances have already been made in making buildings more earthquake-resistant. But what if buildings could actually become invisible to quakes?
Wait, what?
Invisibility is usually something reserved for discussion in science-fiction films like "Predator." But a quick search of the Internet will reveal that "cloaking" technology has come along way in recent years. By diverting light waves and redirecting them to appear as if they traveled in straight line, these cloaking devices can — for all intents and purposes — make an object disappear from view.
Here's a simple demonstration:
Such devices are already being developed by the U.S. military as the next phase in effective camouflage. The same principles may also have applications elsewhere. As an article in the Smithsonian explains, the shockwaves that cause the most damage during earthquakes might also be susceptible to such manipulation:
According to [William] Parnell's mathematical model, it's possible to channel seismic waves around an object by placing it at the precise center of an underground rubber cloak. Parnell calculates that if rubber is "pre-stressed" — stretched in a specific manner — it can mimic the capabilities of light-cloaking materials.
To be sure, engineers already lay rubber shock absorbers under some buildings to protect against earthquakes. But Parnell's cloak should prevent the structure from feeling Love [dangerous zigzag] waves at all. And, additional calculations indicate the cloak could potentially lessen the impact of other types of seismic waves — such as P waves, which alternately compress and stretch rock as they move through the ground.

I am two weeks in with my journey back to 173 pounds and I am doing pretty well so far. I have managed to stay on track for 12 of the first 14 days. Thursday I a day trip to Indianapolis for a work meeting where they provided lunch, and I dug in a little more than I should have. They served chicken, roast beef, red skin mashed potatoes and steamed veggies. I left the steam veggies off the plate and went back for seconds on the rest.
Yesterday for Mother's Day, Mandy and I ended up at the Melt Bar & Grill, which originated in Cleveland, Ohio and has spread like wild fire around the state. Basically they are known for making some tasty huge grilled cheese sandwiches with all kinds of cheese and various other ingredients. I ended up getting the Parma, Italy which was a fried chicken parmesan with marinara, garlic texas toast, mozzarella and parmesan cheese sprinkled on top. I was a bit of a good boy, I only got a half a sandwich, but it still was a calorie filled lunch.
Later in the evening when dinner time rolled around, I made things even worse when we made homemade tacos and nachos. I could have been a good boy and had one or two tacos and that was it, but I ended up having two plates of nachos and two tacos. I basically killed almost a whole bag of shredded cheese on my own. Sad I know!
As a reminder here is my starting point
Here is my weeks one and two weigh in photos. To be honest I was a little shocked and how much change happened in these two weeks, but I am not going to complain one bit. I just hope its body fat that is leaving and no muscle mass.
Well today is a new day and I am back on the horse. Long run pace is on tap for today with an estimated distance of 8 to 10 miles. I'll let how I am feeling determine that once I get out there.

By Rohan Nadkarni.
I was apprehensive when I sat in the chair for my first male pedicure. It was December 2008, I was in Bombay visiting family, and a mustachioed man with skinny (but strong!) hands wheeled over a bucket of warm water and placed a buffet of tools I'd never seen before at my feet. I'd decided to tag along with my very-politically-active-on-Facebook uncle to the Precious Beauty Saloon. He had insisted to men that men in India got pedicures all the time, so it was foolish of me to assume they were only for women.
A little over half an hour later, any issues I previously had with people having to look at my toes were replaced by a newfound softness around my ankles and perfectly shaped toenails. Today, I search for that feeling every couple of months. If you are like I once was—unwoke and rough footed—you may think that pedicures aren't for you. But here's the truth that you, the modern man, deserves to know.
Here's Why You Should Get a Pedicure
Be honest with yourself: When was the last time you thoroughly cleaned the area underneath your toenails? When did you last scrub the bottom of your feet to get rid of any dead skin or callouses? It's easy to think of pedicures as a floofy spa activity—they are definitely relaxing!—you should also take into account the hygienic benefits of actually paying close attention to your feet.
If general cleanliness is not enough of a sell, maybe you fancy indulgence. Male pedicures have range. You can go in for what amounts to a basic cleaning, or you can spring for a higher-tier pedicure, and introduce your legs to milk-based creams or green tea-scented lotions. After all, you're a working man. Don't your poor feet, the ones that help you hustle to work, pump iron in the gym and cheat death at your standing desk—your very damnfoundation—deserve the same occasional deluxe care as the rest of your body?
Here's What to Expect of Your First Pedicure
Whether you make an appointment at the salon in your local mall or at the spa near your romantic getaway, the basics of the situation are the same: You'll arrive, roll up your pants, and find yourself seated in a massage chair, with your feet in a tub of warm water.
Over the next 30 minutes to an hour (depending on the type of pedicure you choose), the following will happen:
1. Your nails will get clipped and shaped.
2. Any gunk hiding between your nails and skin will get painlessly removed.
3. The dead skin on bottom of your toes and feet will be scoured rid until they reach a level of softness you didn't know existed.
4. Expect some soothing gels and lotions to be rubbed on your feet and ankles.
Most salons have pedicure options that include soothing wraps for your legs and even brief massages and if you're feeling Jaden Smith levels of swervy, you can get your nails painted (unless you're employed at a beach club, who's going to see it).
Also: A pedicure will almost certainly tickle at some point. You may intermittently think you're about to kick someone in the face. But don't worry. Even the most ticklish people survive pedicures. (I've managed to avoid any incidents of assault in nearly a decade of pedicures across multiple continents).
You Should Go With Friends! (or Don't)
Male pedicures, like most activities in life, are best shared with other people. So go to one with your mom, wife, girlfriend, Tinder date. Go with your bros, your teammates, your dad, that one co-worker you've always wanted to bond with. Don't restrict yourself! A pedicure is every bit a social activity as an after-work beer or a Saturday afternoon pie run. (Note to self: See if it's possible to bring pie to pedicure appointments.) Don't be afraid to go alone, either. Maybe you want some time with your favorite book or you finally want to listen to Sports Illustrated's NBA podcast. A pedicure is a perfectly fine time to enjoy what makes you tick—and since you likely won't need more than an hour, you can conveniently tell people you're at the gym to work out.
And finally, if you catch any heat for having the audacity to treat yourself, remember that youare the enlightened one with buttery feet and a pair of very relaxed legs. If all the people who go out of their way to mock men who get pedicures actually got one, the world would be a better place.

Miami Spice's Kickoff Event Limits Number of Attendees
For a more intimate gathering during the second annual Miami Spice Kickoff Event and Fund-Raiser, the hosts—the Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau, in collaboration with the Miami Beach Convention Center and Centerplate Catering—limited the number of guests to 2,000. Total attendance for the July 28 event, which celebrated the discount restaurant program's 10th anniversary, dropped from 3,800 participants last year to 1,200 this year.

Prior to the event, Brustman Carrino Public Relations led efforts to execute ticket sales by advertising the ticket giveaways, hosted cooking segments, and interviews with chefs that taking place at the celebratory kickoff.
Thirty-seven restaurants participated in the kickoff event, including chef Michael Schwartz of Michael's Genuine Food & Drink, chef Douglas Rodriguez of De Rodriguez Cuba and Ola Restaurant, Mark Randazzo of Randazzo's Little Italy, and event newcomer Tom Azar of City Hall. Attendees listened to live performances by jazz flutist Nestor Torres while tasting food.Those who purchased V.I.P. tickets had the chance to view live performances by Cirque Eloizé and received gift bags printed by HSA Enterprises filled with a 10-year commemorative Miami Spice Nestor Torres CD, a Cirque Eloizé cup, a Stella Artois recipe book, and postcards.
Miami Spice's participating restaurants are offering meals priced at $22 for lunch and $35 for dinner through September.

A Shared Vision
When UN Secretary General, Mr Ban Ki-moon, visited UNIS Hanoi in 2010 and inspired our students with his passionate and wise advice as they assume their roles as leaders of tomorrow, he also framed an important piece of work for the School's leaders. He told us; "It is the right moment to be talking about our future… You have to have a big dream, aim high but keep your two feet firmly on the ground."
His visit in 2010 came as the Board of Directors embarked on their journey to define the School's Vision, and that also gave rise to the formal articulation of the School's Values and Beliefs.
The Vision statement was to embody an entire community's hopes and dreams for our students, and drive the school's strategic planning for the future. The Values were to underpin all that we do.
Both the Vision statement and the Values were born out of more than two years of work involving students and parents, faculty and staff, administration and Board, as we learned what was important to our community and how our community wanted to embrace the future.
The values of the United Nations resonate throughout UNIS Hanoi's guiding statements and is at the heart of our Vision which sits boldly on the horizon, as something we will strive constantly towards reaching. It serves to motivate continuous improvement, be used as the ultimate measure of our success as educators, and the acid test by which our plans for the future are selected.
"Our learning community will be an inspirational role model for a better world"

BUCHAREST – Romania's parliament postponed a special commission's report on a controversial bill that would allow Canada's Gabriel Resources to set up Europe's biggest opencast gold mine until November 10, an official was quoted saying on Tuesday.
Gabriel Resources has been waiting 14 years for approval to use cyanide to mine 314 t of gold and 1 500 t of silver in the town of Rosia Montana. The state also holds a minority stake in the mine.
The government of Prime Minister Victor Ponta this year proposed a bill to speed up the project by setting strict deadlines for the approval process.
The bill, which triggered countrywide protests against the mine, prompted parliament to set up a commission to assess the bill. It was supposed to file its report this week.
"We approved a deadline extension until November 10 at the request of the commission's president," lower house speaker Valeriu Zgonea was quoted as saying by state news agency Agerpres.

Team Orange D1GP USA Chicago scandal in the windy city results in $17,500 in fines
There was quite a bit of controversy at the third round of the D1GP USA tour in Chicago back on August 1st, apparently there was a bit of confusion between Team Orange's driver Kazuhiro Tanaka who was beaten by the rising American star Forest Wang. The Japanese professional drifter thought that a One More Time was in order but the judges felt otherwise. The worst part of all is that a lack of communication between the driver and the D1 official at the starting line, most likely due to a translation issue.
In a sport where the prize money in no way justifies the competition, the majority of these extreme athletes are out there on the track because they have something more important than money pushing them forward, their egos. The last thing that a professional athlete traveling across the Pacific wants is to be defeated by an amateur, especially if they are an American. By standing in the way of the man from Japan, the course worker should have known that no matter how many all access passes he is wearing around his neck the man in front of him is in one of the most professional cars in the event, and he didn't get in that ride overnight.
Tanaka was apparently revving the engine of his Subaru and gently nudging the track official out of the way with the orange car's front bumper. During the protest from the official one of the Team Orange mechanics attempted to lower the man's hands for him and in coming into contact with the D1 representative Tanaka was disqualified.
See PRESS RELEASE below for details on fine
Continued after the jump with press release and video.
The real bad news began when the Team Orange captain Nobushige Kumakubo refused to line up against Mr. Wang because of the prior controversy where his teammate was disqualified and resulted in fines totaling $17,500. After about 40 minutes of the orange car failing to show up to the line Wang was allowed to advance directly into the finals in a match made for Nissan enthusiasts pitting the American's turbocharged S14 against Nomuken's 4 door R34 Skyline. The crowd felt that the proceedings were a bit of proverbial b.s. and made their thoughts known vocally. Amidst the chanting, the monkey man himself almost didn't run, waiting over 20 minutes to get to the starting line until the rowdy crowd had calmed down.
It was a little whack that Kumakubo didn't run. Perhaps as the man who writes the checks, he knew better than to go out there and face an opponent where some bad blood would lead to some expensive damage. Perhaps it was an inside conspiracy in order to set up the internationally diverse podium with a japanese flag on top , followed by the star spangled banner in second and a Swede in third.
If the way that the D1 has handled themselves so far is any indication of the way that the track worker handled the situation, we can't blame Team Orange for their actions.
D1GP Chicago Top 8 thru the Finals
Dear D1GP USA Fans,
This is D1GP USA's Official Statement regarding the events that transpired at the Chicago D1 Grand Prix event.
In the case of Driver conduct at the event there were several instances that involved Team Orange. We feel these instances were boiling over from the Anaheim event where Forrest Wang had beaten Tanaka and fought a hard battle against Kumakubo that resulted ultimately in Kumakubo's victory over Wang. In Chicago, Wang and Tanaka were paired up again with Kumakubo once again waiting in the wings.
I am sure, as anticipated as this battle was for the crowd, it was maybe more anticipated by the drivers. There was a lot of pride on the line. After Wang and Tanaka's first tandem battle there was a slight advantage given to Wang. The drivers reversed positions and Forrest got a huge lead from the start with Tanaka letting off the gas about 50 feet after the start. Wang realized this mid course and also ceased. There was some confusion in the tower as to what had happened. We consulted with the race starter who said that both cars started at the same time. We then went to the replay, however the replay would only give us the seconds after the actual start. Team Orange called foul as they did not feel they received the proper signal from the starter. After much debate it was determined that there would be a re-start of the original tandem battle as both drivers ceased.
This is where the confusion comes in. Apparently Team Orange did not know that we called a re-start and believed we had called for a OMT. Possibly this was a language barrier issue. We are not sure. After the re-started run, it was a clear victory for Wang, but Tanaka went back to the starting line expecting to run again. Team Orange was informed of the Wang victory and this is where the infractions begin.
One of our pit workers was standing in front of Tanaka's car with his arm out and hand up signaling to him to not move forward trying to get Tanaka to turn around and go back to his pit position. It was about this time Tanaka was informed of the Wang victory. Believing that the original call the run earlier was for a OMT, Tanaka and Team Orange went berserk. Tanaka pressed his car against the course workers leg and proceeded to continually rev his engine. Team Orange's mechanic then slapped the course workers arm (the course worker had it up signaling Tanaka to not move forward) in an attempt to get him to put his arm down. This slap of the course workers arm was repeated no less than 3 times before the race starter told his course worker to get out of the way. At this time Tanaka hit the gas and performed a wheel spin (burnout) thus spinning the car around in obvious defiance over the decision by the judges and his team's misunderstanding. As he did this he reached out of the car and gave everyone an obscene gesture, to make matters worse, as he was doing this he also clipped our race starter's knee with his rear bumper and ran over his foot. This reckless act required the EMT's to assist our starter with his injuries.
Immediately following, Kumakubo retired in protest over the Tanaka loss. As the now forfeit Kumakubo was supposed to go up against Wang, Wang then immediately advanced into the final round against Nomura. With Kumakubo retired and Tanaka disqualified (due to his actions), Hokkanen was awarded 3rd place and we went on with the Championship battle between Nomura and Wang. Nomura beat Wang in the Championship battle.
The infractions by Team Orange include, but are not limited to:
D1GP USA Rulebook Re: Conduct
· Refusing to cooperate with, interfering with, or obstructing the action of the Officials, Competition Director or others in the performance of their duties.
Infractions by Team Orange:
Tanaka not listening to course officials who directed him to hold his position on course and ordering him to turn around and go back to the pits thus delaying the competition (also considered unsportsmanlike).
Tanaka placing his car firmly against course officials leg and revving engine in defiance of course officials direction (also considered unsportsmanlike)
Team Orange Mechanic slapping the arm of the course official repeatedly in an attempt to defy the course officials direction and the judgment of the officials (also considered unsportsmanlike)
D1GP USA Rulebook Re: Conduct
Public criticism of the event or the series, its Officials or Sponsors
Infractions by Kumakubo and Tanaka:
Blog's portraying the series and it's officials in a negative light over their loss (this could also be considered unsportsmanlike)
D1GP USA Rulebook Re: Breach of Rules
Line item re: dangerous or reckless driving
Infraction by Tanaka:
Performing an illegal wheel spin in the starting area which resulted in the starter being injured (this could also be considered unsportsmanlike)
D1GP USA Rulebook Re: Unsportsmanlike Conduct
Line Item as defined under Unsportsmanlike Conduct
Infractions by Team Orange:
All of the above mentioned including Kumakubo's retiring in protest
My ruling in this matter is as follows:
D1GP USA's mission in 2009 was to produce the most unbiased and fair competition possible. It is this mission that allows us to be blind to such factors as nationality, experience, celebrity or the difference between a heavily sponsored team or privateer. It is our intention rather to see every driver on the same level.
We understand that Team Orange is the most famous drift team in the world and its drivers are regarded as some of the best drivers there are. However that does not give them the right to expect to be treated differently and IT does not give them the right to act the way they did at this event. Therefore the following penalties are imposed:
The Penalties in this matter are as follows:
Kazuhiro Tanaka – Fine of $10,000 & loss of series points & suspension for the rest of the D1GP USA season.
Nobushige Kumakubo – Fine of $5,000 & loss of event points in Chicago
Team Orange – As a result of the team mechanic's actions, an additional $2,500 fine
There have also many been many rumors surfacing regarding Ken Nomura's conduct at the Chicago event. Thus far our investigation into the matter is not complete. We will continue to investigate and make a ruling later next week.
Thank you,
Rich Goodwin

text: Agile and lean development approaches as well as DevOps often allude to the term called "whole team approach", putting all the responsibilities inside the project team. For the classical software tester this usually implies being part of a project team instead of working in a quality assurance department. Being a member of a test center I witnessed first-hand the different drivers and directions of movement that have been pushing and pulling our department over the last three years during a still ongoing agile transformation. Within this talk, I would like to take you with me on the journey of our test team and share with you my testing viewpoint on and the experience gained from the agile transformation. In addition to describing the evolution from being "gatekeepers of quality" towards "test enabler and supporter" and sketching some technical solutions along this way, I will take a position to why it is so reasonable, at least in our organizational context, to still have a separate test center.

I was very pleased to have the opportunity to present a 'guest' mix as part of Dave Michuda's excellent Low Light Mixes program.
Here's my write-up on the program, a bit on the track selections and the track list:
I was very pleased when Dave invited me to submit a guest mix to the Low Light Mixes. Dave's mixes are as diverse as they are interesting and they're always chill with good vibes. I spent quite a bit of time thinking about what I might contribute that could hang with so many great mixes. I have a certain thing I do with the Ambient Soundbath Podcast, but the Low Light Mixes are more all-encompassing.
After a couple months of deliberation, I decided that I would feature the work of my favorite composer, Harold Budd and newcomer, Durango Budd. Harold Budd's fantastic catalog of work very much informs the work of Durango Budd (https://durangobudd.bandcamp.
com), and both of these artists have the piano at the center of most of their creative pursuits. Harold Budd has a well-publicized and longstanding love/hate relationship with the piano, yet he manages to coax such beautiful music out of a wood box filled with felt-tipped hammers and strings. Durango Budd, similarly, takes the same instrument and through experimentation and synthesis manages to coax out equally beautiful, distressed tones that evoke melancholic nostalgia (as Mike Carss, the artist known as Altus, put it – https://www.altusmusic.ca/).
Track list for program:
- 00:00 – 06:00 – The Child with a Lion – Harold Budd – The White Arcades
- 06:00 – 09:30 – Piano Drone 4 – Durango Budd – Drones for Prepared and Synthesized Piano
- 09:30 – 12:30 – A Child in a Sylvan Field – Harold Budd – By the Dawn's Early Light
- 12:30 – 31:00 – Bismillahi' Rrahman Rrahim – Harold Budd – The Pavilion of Dreams
- 31:00 – 33:00 – Piano Drone 5 – Durango Budd – Drones for Prepared and Synthesized Piano
- 33:00 – 39:00 – The Room of Ancillary Dreams – Harold Budd – The Room
- 39:00 – 46:30 – Piano Synthesis Drone 3 – Durango Budd – Drones for Prepared and Synthesized Piano
- 46:30 – 59:00 – Agua – Harold Budd – Agua
- 59:00 – 61:30 – Piano Drone 1 – Durango Budd – Drones for Prepared and Synthesized Piano

I woke up with nasty cramps this morning. Nothing yet but I'm glad I'm working from home. Thankfully the Dilaudid I squirreled away is making me happy, happy! :-) I got my coffee, my smokes (I gotta quit) and I'm content. Even enough to work today.
Things still suck as the only game plan at this juncture is to reup my evil lease for another 6 months and try to save more money and look at what my "vitural id" situation is at that point. I can't go no where. Tess and I are talking about doing an apartment transfer in July to a bigger place so we can room together.
Well, I should probably clock into work and shut down my home internet connection. I can't get online when I'm connected to the work network. Bummer. Talk to you later peeps.

I don't know if you know but for about 10 years, I had sinisterbeauty.com registered. I have hosting with Dreamhost and it was set to auto renew yearly (well all my other domains do). For some reason, it didn't get renewed and I didn't know. It was purchased by some dbag who is holding it ransom for $4,000. I don't have that kind of money so I registered two new domains to replace it, sinisterbeauty.net and sinisterbeauty.org.
There are several other variations out there but for me, it's kind of my baby. I have another domain, strangestangel.com which I haven't updated in a few years. I would like to get back into my creativity soon, however, b/c I feel I've been "away" too long.
Once the DNS information is populated, the offer of course will always stand to Ashlie, Stephanie and Arianne. Once we have a layout uploaded, then females I know are welcome to email me about hosting. This would only be offered to women I actually a) know and b) have something they want to share like digital photography, an insightful blog, etc. I hope to make sinisterbeauty.org/.net what sinisterbeauty.com wasn't (aka updated more frequently).
I'm excited! I'll… Continue reading

Plus, studies show that women are much better at being single than men.
Leave it to the experts at Match.com to climb into the brains of singles all over the country and come up with some very interesting facts when it comes to the lovely state of being single. They surveyed 5,000 single Americans to see just how they felt about their non-relationship status, and found that only 6 percent called themselves "unhappy." Refreshing, isn't it? Singles between 55-64 and 21-34 were found to be the happiest of all the age ranges surveyed, with women being more content in their single status than men.
A recent study from dating site Zoosk.com showed that 64 percent of single men are more productive in the workplace when they're in a relationship, while 53 percent of single women who said that their work ethic either took a dive or stayed "unchanged" when they were coupled up. Taking both of these studies into consideration, it looks as though men just may be the needier of the genders! Win $550 Worth Of Luxury Goods From Henri Bendel!
So in honor of National Singles Week (if you didn't know it was singles week, you are not paying attention to our site!), I spoke with Match.com relationship expert Whitney Casey about the survey, and tried to find out exactly why it seems that women can swing the single thing much easier than men:
"Women are good at interpersonal relationships and aren't afraid to tap their army of girlfriends when needed," Casey explained. "And women aren't afraid to do things on their own, either. She's not reliant on a man to get her out of the house — her calendar is already booked."
Out of the singles surveyed by Match, 38 percent "cited loneliness as a cause of stress." As someone who is single, and actually revels in it, I can't understand how this could possibly cause stress for anyone. Casey explained:
"Those pesky 'You've got so much going for you, why are you still single?' questions will grate on anyone's nerves. Eventually, you don't even want to hang around your Aunt Suzanne or your best friend and her husband because you know the topic of your single status will come up at least three times over what was supposed to be a relaxing dinner. And like it or not, those questions do stress singles out. Although friends and family can have the best intentions, sometimes they can be the biggest stressors." 100 Best Things About Being Single: Part 1 of 5 [GALLERY]
I've been single for longer than I care to admit. While I occasionally go on dates — mostly setups because my introverted personality keeps from being even remotely approachable — I'm very content. I feel empowered by my singlehood. Yes, I'm reminded quite often by friends who have married and my aunt (it's always the aunt in these cases, isn't it?) that my eggs won't last forever, so I better step it up and take a leap into the love pool; but it's just not a major concern of mine.
I've been in love twice in my life. I've been told I was "the one who got away," that I was someone's soulmate, and more than a few times I've had someone stand outside my apartment throwing rocks at my window. Granted, he wasn't in a trench coat and blaring Peter Gabriel a la Lloyd Dobler, but it's happened, and although he was the wrong person for me, at least I can say I have had a few of those moments. I know what love is, I know what it feels like to have my heart broken (quite often actually), so right now, I'm happy in my single life. I may be alone, but I'm not lonely, and sometimes I think single people might not see the difference between those two words and their meanings.

Possibility seems to be something that we often invoke, but which is rarely discussed by itself. And because possibility is used as a basis for certain distinctions confusion about possibility can lead to problems with any reasoning that depends on it. Here I will define three kinds of possibility, and hopefully these divisions will make some mistakes less likely (mistakes of appealing to one kind of possibility when really another was appropriate).
The first kind of possibility is meta-logical possibility. Specifically, it is the sense of possibility in which every internally consistent system of logic, and hence every set of rules for the preservation of truth, are considered as possibilities. This kind of possibility is probably the least useful, since it can't even rule out what may seem like obvious contradictions as impossibilities, because there are some logical systems in which those apparent contradictions are in fact true. The only use I have ever found for this kind of possibility is when arguing that nothing can be known a priori, the argument goes that even contradictions can't be ruled out a priori because it is impossible to know how truth works in the real world, as there are many possibilities for truth, in this sense.
The second kind of possibility is logical possibility, or possibility with respect to a logical system. Under this kind of possibility a statement is possible if it isn't a contradiction within the logical system we are working with (usually classical logic). It is in this sense of possibility which contradictions are said to be impossible. Usually if possibility is defined it is defined in this way. But I think that this kind of possibility is the wrong kind to appeal to, at least in most cases. For example, even if we were in a perfectly Newtonian world, it would still be possible, in this sense, for my computer to float off my desk without any change in its current state, simply because to assert that it floats up without being changed in any way is not a logical contradiction. But there is a sense in which it isn't possible, just like it isn't possible to exceed the speed of light or to ride a unicorn.
This third kind of possibility is restricted possibility. Under this kind of possibility something is possible if it isn't a contradiction and doesn't violate the background conditions. What the background conditions are exactly can vary, but they can usually be deduced from the context. For example, if I say that it is impossible for heat to move through a vacuum, then my background conditions are the laws of physics. If I say that it is impossible for this post to complete itself then my background conditions are the laws of physics plus the construction and operation of my computer. In my opinion this restricted sense of possibility is the most useful, but it is the least often appealed to.
For example, consider a definition of supervenience in terms of possibility. Our definition goes as follows: a higher level fact, S, only supervenes on a collection of lower level facts, T, if and only if it is impossible for S to be absent when T is present. If we understand possibility here as the second kind of possibility then there are no supervenient facts. To see why consider heat. Let us define heat, our S, as the cause of boiling and burning. And let our T be the facts about molecular motion, which are the facts that heat really is supervenient on. But it is perfectly possible, in the sense of logical possibility, for molecular motion, of any sort, to fail to cause boiling or burning. And thus heat would not supervene on molecular motion, which means that we are working with a bad definition of supervenience. However, if we understand possibility here as the third kind, restricted possibility, then we can consider whether heat must be present whenever certain kinds of molecular are, if the laws of physics are held constant. And now it is true that whenever the right kinds of molecular motion are present around the right substances burning or boiling must follow, by the laws of physics, and thus that heat supervenes on the molecular motion, as it should.
Of course some won't be happy with using the third kind of possibility, because by its very definition whether something is possible in this sense is not related to whether it is conceivable. However I doubt this shocks you, dear reader, since I have already detailed how conceivability and possibility come apart.
