I had a minor stumble in Paris last month and ended up visiting an urgent care. They took me in and patched me up and sent me on my way. What are the odds a bill will eventually find its way across the Atlantic to me in the US?

I was on a scooter tour of the Champs Elysees when I took a tumble and my glasses took a chunk out of my eyebrow. I was the only person on the tour, so the tour operator called to figure out which hospital to take me to and we scooted over. My wife was back in the hotel room setting up a case with our Cigna International SOS health coverage, who reached out to me while I was filling out the paperwork at the intake / waiting room. "Oh no, that is not one of our hospitals, we'll have to do it as a post-service reimbursement, is that OK?" and yeah that was fine. Maybe 10 minutes later they brought me back to triage to make sure I wasn't in acute danger before sending me back to the waiting room. Maybe another 10 minutes later they brought me back to a private room, the doctor looked at me and said "ah yeah, that will need to be closed up, let me bring in another coworker to confirm", and maybe 10 minutes later my eyebrow was glued up and the doctor was escorting me to a discharge waiting room. 2 weeks later the wound is a tiny little scar hiding behind my eyebrow, so well done, doc, and bravo French healthcare for making an urgent care case take maybe an hour, tops?

But while I was checking if I needed to visit anyone to arrange for payment before I left, they seemed to be being mostly polite about the whole concept of paying for health care and just gave me some discharge paperwork which only has the usual privacy policy fine print on it as well as a brief summation of my treatment. They do have my home address from intake, so it's _possible_, but is it actually likely?

I mean I guess the alternative question is how long do I need to stall Cigna's International SOS before the whole thing turns into an amusing story about how I spent a few hours on vacation in the French ER and getting my glasses replaced before I could finish a coffee at the corner cafe.

I made a fused glass house number to post on a rock at the top of our driveway. I'm not super-satisfied with how it came out (so far?). I'd like opinions and advice on the three options I have from here.

Here's how it looks now. It's very roughly 10"x10".

If you're aesthetically picky, I'd love your honest opinion. Am I having house number dysphoria? Or am I right that the blobbiness makes it look too amateurish? The studio owner says it's already beautiful, and no one will notice the lumps when they're at viewing distance from the rock. Is she right and my perfectionism is just getting in my way? Or is it really as amateurish as it looks to me?

The top part of the 6 is nice and smooth, just how I wanted it. The rest isn't, and it's not going to get there at the studio where I made it. The studio owner has already fired it twice, with some work in between to smooth the edges. My amateur opinion is that it needs to be fired hotter for longer, but her professional practice is that she's not going to do that. So I have three options:
1. Pick it up and install it as-is.
2. Grind out some of the worst lumps on the edges, and have her fire it again to polish the ground edges. She will NOT be happy to do this, so I'd have to insist. She won't like it, and I won't like doing it (but also, I'm not planning to go back after this). I don't know if it'd end up enough better to be worth it. The surface will still be lumpy -- it's only some of the edges I could grind down a bit. I outlined those in pink on the second image, but I'm not sure if I even could fix all of them. The grinder might not fit inside the circle of the 6, or in the narrow space between the 2 and the 6.
3. Start over at another studio. I found one where I'm confident I could get the result I'd like. She spent time with me on the phone, shared lots of expertise, and suggested a different process (cutting a mold from 6mm fiber paper).

I'm not feeling psyched to start from scratch, but I'm also not sure whether this looks good enough to use as-is, or even with the grinding I could do. I do like the colors, and I'm not sure what color range the other studio will have in the scrap bins I'd be using. The other studio is a long drive away, and I'd have to make 2-3 trips. I'd have to spend more money to start over, and I've already spent what's verging on a silly amount for house numbers.

So I don't know: use it as-is, grind what I can, or bite the bullet and start over?

It's tricky, because I'm a newbie and the studio owner where I went is an experienced pro, but I think she's wrong about some of what she's telling me. Those details are collapsed

En Familia conversamos de las dificultades y esfuerzos para lograr una educación inclusiva.
La educación es un derecho fundamental de todos los niños y niñas para su desarrollo físico, mental y social, no deben existir barreras o desigualdades que impidan el acceso a la enseñanza. En el Decreto 1421 de 2017 de la ley colombiana, “se reglamenta en el marco de la educación inclusiva la atención educativa a la población con discapacidad” (Ministerio de Educación, 2017), de esta manera el Estado promueve y ampara las condiciones para una igualdad efectiva y justa, y condena a quienes abusan de ella.

El gran esfuerzo que hace la madre, el padre, los docentes, las instituciones educativas y campañas de educación para personas en condición de discapacidad, es con el fin de promover la inclusión y construir propuestas pedagógicas que permitan reforzar las disciplinas que a cada niño se le dificulte en el momento, y así lograr un desarrollo y bienestar para todos.

El pasado 19 de marzo estuvimos conversando En Familia del trabajo colaborativo que se realiza en Colombia, para que no existan más casos de exclusión y acceso a una buena educación.

En Familia dialogamos sobre porqué en los hogares se repiten las mismas enfermedades, dolencias, situaciones e incluso decisiones.

Con el aumento de la expectativa de vida, es necesario que miremos la vejez desde lo económico, lo laboral, lo físico e incluso lo sexual.

En nuestra conversación En Familia, discutimos sobre cuáles son las buenas prácticas de un parto más respetuoso.

En Familia, le contamos cuál es la importancia de que Colombia cuente con una ley que regule el uso y venta de vapeadores y cigarrillos electrónicos.

¿Cuáles son los efectos físicos y emocionales que tiene el azúcar en las personas? En Familia, te lo contamos.

La adicción al cigarrillo y al alcohol impacta profundamente la vida de las personas, afectando sus relaciones familiares, laborales y sociales. En nuestro encuentro "En Familia", conversamos estas problemáticas, sus consecuencias en la salud y cómo encontrar apoyo para superarlas.

Colombia enfrenta un dilema: largas jornadas de trabajo y baja productividad. Con más del 80% de los trabajadores sintiéndose estresados, el estrés laboral se perfila como un factor crucial en esta problemática. ¿Qué está sucediendo?

When recordings like Forces of Nature: Live at Slugs' seemingly falls from yonder jazz sky, we must stop to thank those swinging stars above for our grand fortune. Because despite all our flaws--a broken politic, a poisoned planet, constant wartime bickering--we are a fortunate, if mostly undeserving, race of peculiarities... [ read more ]

Making music is most often a collaborative affair. Big bands, duos, trios, quartets and quintets--take your pick. Miles Davis (or any other of your favorites) calls his guys into the studio or to the stage where they bump elbows and trade riffs, drawing their individual personalities out to form a collection of sound waves to craft a finished work of art...
