There’s an endless parade of politicians, business leaders, celebrities and others appearing on TV and in print, to own up and say sorry for what they’ve done wrong. We’ve come to expect this: just as night follows day, so public apology follows misdemeanor. Sometimes these apologies seem genuine and heartfelt, other times they’re perfunctory and insincere. But does any type of apology really help the healing process? The penitent hope their red-faced admissions of guilt will bring absolution, but can saying sorry really be enough to restore their credibility? High Expectations for the Power of ‘Sorry’ In private life we also have very high exp...

This is the university that leads the nation for the percentage of students (about 20 percent) choosing family medicine. North Dakota overall will be short about 160 physicians by 2025, and the need is now affecting urban areas as well as rural ones, said Joshua Wynne, FACP, dean of the university’s School of Medicine and Health Sciences. Keeping medical students interested in practicing primary care in rural America depends upon whom medical schools choose to admit. For example, one-fourth of the University of North Dakota’s student population hails from small towns, and 80 percent are in-state. More and more medical schools are looking at ...

Among the revelations? “In most areas, including reasoning, we improve as we age, and peak cognitive performance actually occurs in our 40s through 60s – and not in our 20s, as many had thought,” Strauch says. Okay, maybe the fact that a middle-aged woman is more reasonable than one in her 20s isn’t the biggest revelation to anyone who’s ever met a middle-aged woman, but it’s still nice to hear. Strauch also asserts that “[n]ew long-term studies that have followed real people in their lives for years find that men and ...

Do Hansel and Gretel have abandonment issues? And what happens after “happily ever after” anyway? Therapist Sue Gallehugh and her son Allen adapt classic fairy tales to illustrate the fundamental principles of self-love through mental health and psychological growth. Through wit and humor, these tales tackle serious issues such as anger, isolation, taking responsibility, bitterness, labeling, emotional boundaries, staying connected, abandonment, manipulation, fear and forgiveness. This little gem of a book cuts through the dreary mire of conventional self-help books to help you discover real solutions to the common problems that prevent us from growing.

Researchers say it is the first time a "fully functional and three-dimensional organ" has been regenerated. The tooth works just like any other tooth. This sounds promoising. Hopefully, we will be able to grow human tetth before too long.

That’s according to CNN, who quotes a study by the British government as reported by the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. To make this bold statement, researchers looked at “50,000 studies conducted over 50 years” and really studied things like how crops and livestock were raised and brought to market. What they found was that the biggest difference between “organic” versus everything else was in the kind of fertilizer used (nitrogen or phosphorus). But even then, researchers say the type of fertilizer had no effect on how healthy organic foods are. Organic is more expensive, to be sure. While I understand not buying milk with certain chemical or hormones in it, for example, I have to agree with this study when it comes to things l...
