Do Music Lessons Make You Smarter?
Practice makes progress, if not perfection, for most things in life. Generally, practicing a skill--be it basketball, chess or the tuba--mostly makes you better at whatever it was you practiced. Even related areas do not benefit much. Doing intensive basketball drills does not usually make a person particularly good at football. Chess experts are not necessarily fabulous at math, and tuba players can't just put down their tubas and pick up cellos.[caption id="attachment_1352" align="alignleft" width="239" caption="Courtesy of Robert Couse-Baker via Flickr."] [/caption] [More]

Texas tax lien bill on its way
A Senate Committee on Business and Commerce substitute for a bill related to the transfer of ad valorem tax liens was favorably voted out of that committee Wednesday to next be voted on by the Senate. A large crowd had packed the Business and Commerce Committee’s Tuesday hearing of State Sen. John Carona’s Senate Bill 247, which resulted in tweaks found in the committee substitute. The main alteration was the inclusion of a prohibition against a lien transfer on real property that is subject…

Senate bill could block North Kansas City Hospital sale
Missouri Senator Ryan Silvey introduced a bill Thursday evening that would allow ways to block a sale of North Kansas City Hospital by the city, The Kansas City Star reports. The bill could allow the city-owned hospital into an independent, nonprofit corporation with a vote of its board of trustees. In addition, residents could vote to turn the hospital into a separate nonprofit, with a petition signed by 5 percent of voters necessary to force a ballot measure. The City Council last year hired…

What Happens When Forest Elephants Are Wiped Out in an Ecosystem?
As go the elephants, so go the trees. That's the message of a new study published in the May 2013 issue of Forest Ecology and Management that found more than a dozen elephant-dependent tree species suffered catastrophic population declines in new plant growths after forest elephants were nearly extirpated from their ecosystems. The fruit-bearing trees all rely on forest elephants as their primary means of seed distribution, a process known as megafaunal dispersal syndrome.The study was conducted in Salonga National Park in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, a region where more than 98 percent of the forest elephants (...

End of the road for Kansas Spine Specialists?
Kansas Spine Specialists isn't talking, but some other sources tied to Wichita's health care industry tell the Wichita Business Journal the specialty practice is disbanding. The WBJ reports the practice, formerly Kansas Joint and Spine Institute, has been plagued by an exodus of physician departures over the past two years. The practice has four physicians remaining, but it appears some of them are in talks with other local orthopedic practices.

The challenges of objectivity: lessons from anatomy.
In the last post , we talked about objectivity as a scientific ideal aimed at building a reliable picture of what the world is actually like . We also noted that this goal travels closely with the notion of objectivity as what anyone applying the appropriate methodology could see . But, as we saw, it takes a great deal of scientific training to learn to see what anyone could see.The problem of how to see what is really there is not a new one for scientists. In her book The Scientific Renaissance: 1450-1630 [1], Marie Boas Hall describes how this issue presented itself to Renaissance anatomists. These anatomists endeavored ...
