San diego arts & culture newsletter: ‘dark winds’ headed to netflix, also this week: steve poltz in solana beach, a '70s music review in carlsbad, a binational exhibit in downtown san diego and more.
But this is for those of you who do binge watch. On Monday, Netflix makes available the first two seasons of the psychological cop drama “Dark Winds,” originally produced for AMC.
If you didn’t catch this stylish, visceral adaptation of Tony Hillerman’s Navajo Nation mysteries when it began two years ago, get busy, bingers. You won’t regret it.
The show produced by, among others, Robert Redford and George R.R. Martin stars Zahn McLarnon (“Reservation Dogs”), Kiowa Gordon and Jessica Matten as three Navajo Tribal Police characters created by Hillerman, who wrote 18 novels set on the “Big Rez” as he called it before he passed away in 2008. His daughter Anne has continued writing about the characters of Joe Leaphorn, Jim Chee and Bernadette Manuelito since 2013.
The Netflix arrival will allow those like myself who’ve watched the show from the start the luxury of episodes not being interrupted by AMC’s incessant blocks of commercials.
But again, for those who didn’t see Seasons 1 or 2 of “Dark Winds” (it’s tentatively scheduled to premiere Season 3 sometime next year), find out what you’ve been missing — like its vivid characters and the stark beauty of a Navajo country threatened by violence and malevolence.
He’s back, and the Belly Up’s got him. Six months after headlining his “Annual 50th Birthday Bash” at the Solana Beach venue, Steve Poltz takes the stage there on Sunday night at 7 p.m. The Bay Area bluegrass band The Brothers Comatose opens. https://bellyup.com/calendar/#tw-event-dialog-13560164
If you’re a fan and/or you’ve followed Poltz for years you already know he’s a founding member of the indie-rock locals The Rugburns and once a staple of places like the Ould Sod in Normal Heights and the Inner Change in PB. But that’s going way back. For a quarter-century Poltz, now based in Nashville, has been making records and touring. Touring a lot. His shows are as clever, cool and entertaining as ever.

I love asking college students I teach if they know what an 8-track tape is. Most of the time I get bemused stares and dead silence. Those clunky cartridges ubiquitous in the 1970s are long gone, but many people cling with fond nostalgia to the music they contained.
Should that be you, New Village Arts Theatre in Carlsbad is your destination for the jukebox musical “8-Track: The Sounds of the ‘70s.” Beginning with preview performances Friday, a cast of six in period garb (brace yourself for bell bottoms and leisure suits) will belt out songs by performers who were at the forefront of this sometimes-disrespected musical era. From the sublime (like Marvin Gaye) to the ridiculous (KC and the Sunshine Band — sorry, disco fans.)
Tijuana-born and -based SDSU graduate Hugo Crosthwaite has been reflecting border narratives in art for more than two decades. His installation “ The Rupture of the White Cube,” curated and designed by Smadar Samson, will be on exhibit beginning Monday at the Mesa College Art Gallery.
In this comparatively small gallery you’ll have the opportunity to immerse yourself in Crosthwaite’s work on a more intimate basis. The artist himself will be on hand at a reception there from 4 to 7 p.m. Aug. 29. He’ll also do a live endurance painting session that can be viewed beginning Monday (through Aug. 28) from noon to 5 p.m. Monday through Thursday. A parking permit is required on campus. For hours and details, visit sdmesa.edu/art-gallery .
Many students are back in school now, but the summer movie season isn’t over. Friday brings the opening nationwide of the sci-fi horror film “Alien: Romulus.”
It’s been well over 40 years since the first “Alien” flick, directed by Ridley Scott and starring Sigourney Weaver, taught moviegoers that “in space, no one can hear you scream” (the film’s catch line). Scott is one of the producers of this seventh “Alien” movie which is set between the first movie’s timeline and that of the follow-up, “Aliens,” in 1986.
Cailee Spaeny, who you might have seen playing Priscilla Presley in a theatrical biopic last year, tangles with a force even more powerful than Elvis in “Alien: Romulus.”

“The Art of Mexico’s Currency”
Deputy Vice Governor of Banco de Mexico Galia Borja Gómez discusses the transformative redesign of Mexican currency. Delving into themes of national identity and technological advancement, she explains how the new banknotes are a celebration of Mexico’s rich cultural and natural heritage, integrated with advanced security features to bolster public trust. This redesign is not just a functional update but a cultural revival, aiming to foster national pride and deepen the public’s connection to their heritage. Borja Gómez emphasizes Banco de Mexico’s dedication to marrying tradition with innovation, ensuring that each banknote not only serves as legal tender but also as a storyteller of Mexico’s storied past and vibrant present.
“Diabetes and Cardiovascular Disparities among Black, White and Filipino Women”
Dr. Maria Rosario (Happy) G. Araneta explores health disparities among Black, White and Filipino women, with a focus on visceral fat accumulation and its links to diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. Dr. Araneta highlights the significant impact of prenatal and childhood malnutrition on health outcomes such as coronary heart disease. Despite lower Body Mass Index (BMI) levels, Filipino women exhibit higher levels of dangerous visceral fat compared to their Black and White peers. She underscores the importance of physical activity, strength training, and inclusive research to address these disparities, emphasizing the need to understand unique health profiles across different demographics to develop more equitable health policies and practices.

I found a very good article that discusses about the timeline for the PhD application for Fall 2024.
Also the last year of your PhD is usually brutal and you are paid crap. Having a kid you 4 or 5th year will likely make you a 6 or 7 year PhD. It can be done in 5 years but it will be rough. And many PhD do NOT go to plan even without children, and are extended to 6 or 7 years.
A PhD program typically takes four to seven years, but a variety of factors can impact that timeline. A PhD, or doctorate degree, is the highest degree you can earn in certain disciplines, such as psychology, engineering, education, and mathematics. As a result, it often takes longer to earn than it does for a bachelor's or master's degree.

Feedback on my PhD application timeline? I'm going to be applying to PhD programs this fall, and in the meantime I've started setting up a rough timeline to make sure I get everything done in time.

Walz married his wife, Gwen, in 1994.The couple has two children, Hope and Gus. The family lived in Mankato, Minnesota for nearly 20 years before moving to Saint Paul when he was elected governor.
According to the Nebraska Army National Guard, Walz enlisted in April 1981 — just two days after his 17th birthday — and entered service as an infantryman, completing a 12-week Army infantry basic training course before graduating from high school.

PhD Timeline In your experience, how long after starting does it take until you get data?

Graduate School Application Timeline If you're planning to apply to graduate school, it's best to start early—it will increase your odds of being admitted. Many graduate programs have rolling admissions, which means applications are evaluated as they arrive (rather than all at once after the final deadline).
I would like to know, if possible, how long it takes on the average to reach a first admission decision for doctoral programs? Let us say a doctoral program promises to inform the applicants of the
UC biologist Josh Gross studies blind cavefish, a species of fish that dwell in cave ponds in Mexico. In a study, supported by the National Science Foundation, Gross looked at the timeline for when the cavefish develop additional taste buds on the head and chin, finding the taste bud expansion starts at five months and continues into adulthood.
Probably, this project needs to be wrapped up to get more grants from funding agencies, you should try aligning your PhD project to stem from this topic which will make things easier for you. All the best!

Obviously there is the good side as I'm learning quite a lot, but my supervisor seems very "obsessed" on those experiments from the past, so this frights me as could impact on my project timeline. Someone had a similar experience? I'm alone in the lab and no one give much insight (even former PhD students that I reached).
