Pride dominates: April brings Philadelphia Black Pride; May means New Hope Celebrates’ Pride Festival in Bucks County; and June brings the PrideDay LGBT Parade and Festival, which promises to be bigger than ever for the 50th anniversary of the history- making Stonewall riots that launched the gay civil rights movement. Also marking the half-century milestone: a performance by the Philadelphia Gay Men’s Chorus and the multimedia exhibition Civil Disobedience: Celebrating Queer Resilience at International House Philadelphia. The rest of the season is peppered with an eclectic range of live performances by LGBTQ icons Betty Who, Eddie Izzard and Patti LuPone. LGBTQ-centric plays [Untitled Project] #213 and How to Catch Creation put locals in the spotlight.

    Partnered with: RW Resident Wellness Medicine is a stressful profession with many demands on our time, our attention, and our energy. All this takes a toll though. At any given time 25-75% of residents are burned out (1) and residency is the “nadir of personal wellness in a physician’s career.” (2) Physician burnout has serious consequences;. It leads to poorer patient care and increased medical errors along with increased rates of substance abuse, suicide, and intent to leave practice. (3) It is our duty to ourselves and to our patients to maintain our optimal physical and emotional health. We often talk about how important it is to take care of our patients but rarely talk about taking care of ourselves. We want you to care for yourselves just as you would care for any of your patients. As very high functioning individuals, physicians routinely satisfy the top needs of Maslow’s hierarchy. 1.

  • The Chamber Orchestra of Philadelphia 4-RC-21019 6-9-05
    UNITED STATES OF AMERICA BEFORE THE NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD REGION FOUR CONCERTO SOLOISTS d/b/a THE CHAMBER ORCHESTRA OF PHILADELPHIA1 Employer and Case 4–RC–21019 PHILADELPHIA MUSICIANS’ UNION LOCAL 77, AMERICAN FEDERATION OF MUSICIANS, AFL-CIO2 Petitioner REGIONAL DIRECTOR’S DECISION AND DIRECTION OF ELECTION The Employer, The Chamber Orchestra of Philadelphia, is a small, elite orchestra which performs at concerts and other engagements. The Petitioner, Philadelphia Musicians’ Union Local 77, has filed a petition with the National Labor Relations Board under Section 9(c) of the National Labor Relations Act seeking to represent a unit of the Musicians who perform in the Chamber Orchestra. There are about 33 Musicians in the petitioned-for unit. The Employer contends that the Musicians are independent contractors and thus are excluded from the coverage of the Act. A hearing officer of the Board held a hearing, and the parties filed briefs. I have considered the evidence and the arguments presented by the parties, and as discussed below, I have concluded that the Musicians are statutory employees. Accordingly, I am directing an election in a bargaining unit of the Employer’s Musicians.3 To provide a context for my discussion, I will first present a brief overview of the Employer’s operations. Then, I will review the factors that must be evaluated in determining independent contractor status and present in detail the facts and reasoning that support my conclusion that the Musicians are statutory employees. 1 The Employer’s name was amended at the hearing. 2 The Petitioner’s name was amended at the hearing.
