Touring the 260 acres grounds we stopped for a few minutes at Connecticut Valley Hospital Cemetery that featured this beautiful sugar maple 🍁 Some people leave a penny when they visit..

Film Study Elective May Be in it's Final Year

Upon walking into class, Film Study students are likely to hear Mr. Munson update the room on whatever he watched over the weekend, with reviews ranging from “meh” to “very good.” They may also hear about the progress of his YouTube channel, debate the uses of artificial intelligence in film, and share their own weekend viewings. It is a classroom characterized not only by watching films, though…

Our last event on our big Saturday day of art and activity was this cool UT event at SXSW at Bangers, where our gal @karenmaness scored us VIP passes, as her students built 2 separate displays for the event. The first was a corrugated plastic replica of UT Tower, with various synchronized projections; and the second was a Lamborghini replica with some awesome LED lighting and projected images as well. After enjoying country group Lucius, we had some great food and cocktails until the “speakeasy” ended and we walked around a bit to check out the SXSW action - where I snapped that last pic from the HBO venue of that oh-so-iconic White Lotus line. It was a super fun night; we got to meet some of Karen’s students, enjoy some fun perks, have some deep conversation, and I got to walk the streets of Austin in my Buddy Holly tshirt and Tony Lama cowboy boots (sadly not pictured)…a wonderful end to the most amazing day of art and culture, with these cherished people 🥰🧡🐂 . . @joatwood @karenmaness @gutzrobert @vckijonespittman #austin #texas #sxsw #utaustin #bangersaustin #luciusband #countrymusic #oldfriends #artistsoninstagram #artist #art #hookemhorns #buddyholly #vip #speakeasy #cvjh #cvhs #sandiegans #sandiegotattooartist #tattooer #ladytattooers #texasartist (at Banger's Sausage House & Beer Garden) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpvf5zxOaXm/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Not Dead (Just) Yet.

Not Dead (Just) Yet.

From the many comments I received after my last post A Time To Die I obviously left the impression that I was on my way to an imminent death. I guess the concept of ‘imminent’ is what the issue is. Without intervention I have no idea when I will die although I can set up a situation through Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) whereby I can determine the time and place of my death. I’ve filled out…

Fatigue that improves with caffeine (as it forces increased cortisol secretion) or hydrocortisone intake may suggest transient (reversible) hypoadrenalism due to excess cortisol requirement. Unfortunately, hypoadrenalism is difficult to detect in blood work and is often normal even in patients with who are severely ill, unless suffering from pituitary or supradrenal tumors, etc.

One of the most important causes of reversible adrenal exertion symptoms in patients with chronic pain, is TOS CVH. TOS CVH causes high arterial brain pressures that lead to paradoxical systemic hypotension due to cerebral autoregulation. This will raise adrenal output to perform daily tasks, ie. raise blood pressure and cardiac output through the sympathetic system, often resulting in profound fatigue, and as a worst case scenario, myalgic encephalomyelitis, if it goes on over a longer period of time. Usually, years.

Patients who have fatigue that responds to caffine but who do not have chronic pain, should mainly look to their sleep, diet and training habits. If sleep and diet is ok, then cardiovascular health is perhaps the most important aspect. Poor cardiac compliance to physical stressors, ie. inadequate strength of the heart, will be compensated for by a raised sympathetic tone and raised adrenal output. Increasing sodium intake can also help, but this should not be done excessively, as the heart may not tolerate a greater blood volume until its strength has been increased. This patient group should stick to [no more than] one cup of coffee per day, preferably in the morning and avoiding high-carbohydrate meals in the evenings. Mental stress also influences, needless to say.

A good indication of improved heart strength is reduced resting heart rates, but also overall lower heart rates during activities. Training too hard too often will strain the adrenal system and make the problem worse than it was initially, so starting with a 45-minute brisk walk once to twice per week, then gradually "feel it out from there", can be appropriate.

Pet Summits has another free summit that might be of interest to some of you. This one is on pet anxiety.

Yesterday I went on a tour of the old Connecticut Valley Hospital CVH located along the Connecticut River in Middletown, CT. Here are some stills of the now closed CVH Theater.

Any recommendations for opera podcasts or documentaries?

yup!

a lot of these podcasts haven’t posted in a while (sad) but yeah!

met opera guild podcast, which does all sorts of stuff

my pride and joy (not really but i’m online friends with both the hosts), opera plot happy hour, which is exactly what it sounds like

unpacking opera, which is basically the same conceit but less drunk (and also they’ve both been absent for a while)

opera offstage, which does a lot of different things

aria code, an in-depth look at famous opera arias

destination santa fe opera, the santa fe opera’s official interview podcast

the cvh podcast, in which bass-baritone christian van horn basically talks about his life being an opera singer and all the things that happen along the way and occasionally interviews other singers

the screaming divas, a podcast/youtube interview series where sopranos sondra radvanovsky and keri alkema interviewed opera people throughout the first couple years of the pandemic

in terms of documentaries, there’s a really great one called the audition, which is about the 2007 edition of the metropolitan opera national council auditions (now called the laffont competition) for young singers

i haven’t seen maria by callas or the opera house (about the building of the new met opera building) but i’ve heard they’re really good

this one is a decent overview of italian opera from baroque times through the end of the romantic era

i love this mini-doc going behind the scenes at rehearsals for the met premiere in 2019 of glass’ akhnaten

hope that helps!

There was one like that in Munich as well just instead of the reviews it had the EU (think it actually was just the German ones) venues and dates on it with ‘sold out’ over each and every single one of them

So glad I've found this blog 😭 please don't stop posting

Wow thank you so much 💓
