    The Composer at the Frontier of Movie Music
    https://www.nytimes.com/2021/05/06/magazine/nicholas-britell.html
    The question of what hip-hop means for Britell may come together most concretely on “Succession.” He had read the pilot script and visited the set with Adam McKay, who suggested him for the project. The show had to have gravitas, Jesse Armstrong told him, but it was also deeply absurd, and the music would have to say both these things at once. It wasn’t clear how Britell could make that happen. Then he started thinking about Kendall Roy, one of the heirs apparent who anchor the show. “The first thing you see,” Britell said, “is he’s in the back of this car rapping to the Beastie Boys.” It’s hard not to think about Kendall as a failed Britell, a parallel-universe version of what he might have been if he had stayed in finance: a Wall Street bro who hides inside his headphones and disconnects from the world he chose. The scene — a young man rapping earnestly inside a chauffeured car — offered a window into how the Roys’ self-conception might contrast sharply with their destructive incompetence. “What if the sound that they imagined for themselves was this dark, courtly, late-1700s harmonic sound?” Britell asked himself. “I played Jesse some of these chords,” he said, “and he was just sort of like, ‘Yes.’”

    Former VA nursing aide sentenced to seven life terms for killing West Va. veterans with insulin
    https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/va-deaths-west-virginia/2021/05/11/d0dd2a06-b25e-11eb-a980-a60af976ed44_story.html
    A former nursing aide was sentenced Tuesday to seven consecutive life terms and an additional 20 years in federal prison after confessing to injecting lethal doses of insulin into frail, elderly veterans in her care at a West Virginia Veterans Affairs hospital. As the sentencing took place, VA Inspector General Michael Missal released a blistering investigative report that concluded that cascading failures by the Louis A. Johnson Medical Center, the Clarksburg hospital that hired Mays in 2015, enabled the nursing aide to target patients for nearly a year. Missal’s 100-page report cited “serious, pervasive, and deep-rooted clinical and administrative failures” that allowed the murders to go undetected as Mays injected patient after patient with insulin, from July 2017 through June 2018, that she was not authorized to administer, leading to their dying of severe hypoglycemia, or low blood sugar. “Somebody should have been asking questions and looking into it, and they did not do that,” Missal said at a news conference Tuesday.
