    DISTURBED facebook.com/Disturbed disturbed.lnk.to/instagram twitter.com/disturbed Imageyoutube.com/user/DisturbedTV not found or type unknown disturbed1.com en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disturbed_(band) open.spotify.com/artist/3TOqt5oJwL9BE2NG9MEwDa Disturbed is an American hard rock band from Chicago, Illinois, formed in 1994. The band includes vocalist David Draiman, bassist John Moyer, guitarist/keyboardist Dan Donegan, and drummer Mike Wengren. Former band members are vocalist Erich Awalt and bassist Steve Kmak. The band has released six studio albums, five of which have consecutively debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. Disturbed went into hiatus in October 2011, during which the band’s members focused on various side projects, and returned in June 2015, releasing their first album in four years, Immortalized, on August 21, 2015. They also recorded and released one live album, Disturbed: Live at Red Rocks on November 18, 2016, which was recorded on August 18, 2016 at Red Rocks Amphitheater in Morrison, Colorado, located about 10 miles west of Denver, Colorado. Their seventh studio album, Evolution, was released on October 19, 2018. Before David Draiman joined Disturbed, guitarist Dan Donegan, drummer Mike Wengren, and bassist Steve “Fuzz” Kmak were in a band called Brawl with vocalist Erich Awalt. Before changing their name to “Brawl”, however, Donegan mentioned in the band’s DVD, Decade of Disturbed, that the name was originally going to be “Crawl”; they switched it to “Brawl”, due to the name already being used by another band. Awalt left the band shortly after the recording of a demo tape; the other three members advertised for a singer.

    Time’s the Revelator: Revival and Resurgence in Alt.country and Modern Old-Time American Music Ashley Denise Melzer A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of American Studies (Folklore). Chapel Hill 2009 Approved by: Dr. William Ferris Dr. Robert Cantwell Dr. Patricia Sawin © 2009 Ashley Denise Melzer ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT ASHLEY MELZER: Time’s the Revelator: Revival and Resurgence in Alt.country and Modern Old-Time American Music (Under the directions of Dr. William Ferris, Dr. Robert Cantwell, and Dr. Patricia Sawin) This thesis investigates the relationship between the modern old-time and alt.country movements through the comparison of four different female musicians: Abigail Washburn, Rayna Gellert, Gillian Welch, and Neko Case. These four women often pull from the same wellspring of old-time songs/structures/sounds, but their instincts come from exceptionally different places. The disparity between the ways they approach their music, reveals how the push toward modern capitalist industrialism has affected how different artists and communities access and transmit those old-world icons and sounds. Furthermore, their engagement specifically with the topic of gender exposes key tactical differences. Old-time musicians, Washburn and Gellert, work within the strictures of tradition so as to remain in dialogue with their community. Welch and Case play into the experimental bent of alt.country to emotionally affect listeners in order to create discreet, personal connections between themselves and their audience. iii To the ones who listen and love me anyway iv PREFACE In the summer, Florida is so hot the home becomes some dark prison of necessary air conditioning.

  • Hospitals and to Physicians, Since They Operate and Are Controlled in Markedly Different Ways
    How Expenditure Caps and Expenditure Targets Really Work WILLIAM A. GLASER New School for Social Research, New York uring its search for some form of cost containment, the United States has speculated about the mer­ its of “expenditure caps” and “expenditure targets.” Congress has instructed the executive to limit Medicare spending on physicians’ Dservices by instituting Medicare volume performance standards (MVPS’s). Several bills for general health insurance reform introduced during the 1990s would create a government agency—a Federal Health Expenditure Board in the Mitchell-Kennedy HealthAmerica Bill is one example—for the purpose of recommending a national spending limit and dividing the allocation of health dollars among sectors. Americans must learn how to set and implement limits because a decision-making system instead of the current state of wishful thinking is necessary. The best insights are derived from countries with such systems already in place. In this article I will distinguish (1) between caps and targets, and (2) between reimbursement methods to hospitals and to physicians, since they operate and are controlled in markedly different ways. A grasp of the details is required in order to understand the difference between successful and unsuccessful arrangements; a knowledge of past events is necessary in order to comprehend the present structural arrangements both in the United States and abroad. The Milbank Quarterly, Vol. 71, No. 1, 1993 © 1993 Milbank Memorial Fund 97 98 William A. Glaser Definitions To clarify the nature of the spending limit, I will distinguish expendi­ ture caps from expenditure targets, since they differ not only in mean­ ing, but also in methods of implementation.
