Teri Netterville and Denise Arthur are dismayed. NYC practicing psychiatrist, Dr. Aruna Khilanani, is quoted as saying, “There are no good apples out there. White people make my blood boil.” She further declared, “I had fantasies of unloading a revolver into the head of any white person that got in my way, burying their body and wiping my bloody hands as I walked away relatively guiltless with a bounce in my step, like I did the world a favor,” adding an expletive. A perspective patient tweeted, “When I entered her office she put a revolver to my head and said I needed to play five rounds of Russian roulette before I could get an appointment.” It will be interesting to see of the State of New York lets Dr. Khilanani continue to practice psychiatry now that her talk at Yale University's School of Medicine is public.

She also runs the very popular Facebook group, Raising Musical Teens, which offers free live Q&As for parents and young adults on this crazy music industry path. A singer/songwriter who took her first voice lesson at the age of nine, Melissa has studied voice her entire life.

Combining the fundamentals of vocal technique with elements of musicality, mindset, music business, performance prep and creative writing, Melissa creates a program for each of her students that meets them where they are today and helps them get where they’d like to go.

A talk by Robert Repetto. Is development sustainable? Certainly not the way the world is now going about it. Major trends are heading straight toward ecological and human disasters and if they are not changed and changed soon, development efforts will fail for billions of people, comprising mainly the world?s most vulnerable populations. Climate change, water scarcities, pollution, population growth, and growing pressures on natural resources that are already extremely stressed reinforce one another in raising these vulnerabilities. Is disaster inevitable? Of course not. But a change in direction is essential and bringing about that change will require significant, even drastic, changes in economic, political, and social patterns. The institutional, market, and political failures that have brought the world to this point will have to be addressed and reformed. If development is to be made sustainable, business as usual is not an option. Robert Repetto is Professor in the Practice of Economics and Sustainable Development at Yale University's School of Forestry and Environmental Studies. This event was the keynote address for "Is Development Sustainable?", a conference in honor of Ted Steck's retirement.
