Reading the Entrails
I often come across arguments to the effect that humans aren ' t really unique or special, we ' re just one animal among all the others. I find this assertion, frankly, just silly. Every species is unique in some ways, of course, that ' s why we can classify them. But humans are highly unusual in very important ways. For example, the biomass of domesticated mammals exceeds that of all the other mammals on earth combined; and the biomass of domesticated poultry -- mostly chickens -- isthree times the biomass of all other birds on earth.This happened in part because of language, which is an absolutely unique human capacity t...

Active Listening: A Crucial Part of Communications, and Leadership
Being a good communicator is often cited as one of the key characteristics of a strong leader. But when people think of communication—for example, instructions from managers to their team—most think of how that person speaks to their employees, and often omit the fact that active listening is just, if not more important. Truly effective communication is not simply about talking, it’s taking the time to listen attentively to others’ stories, asking questions, and mining conversations for depth and understanding. People often think they are good listeners, but active listening requires a conscious effort to hear a...

Ecology Rescued the AMA and Medical Professionalism Beginning in 1870. Will technology and science rescue the profession once again?
BY MIKE MAGEE Medicine does not exist in a vacuum. The trusting relationships that underpin it function within an ever-changing environment of shifting social determinants. This is not new, nor surprising. Consider for example the results of their 1851 survey of 12,400 men from the eight leading U.S. colleges had to be shocking. The AMA was only four years old at the time and being forced to acknowledge a significant lack of public interest in a physician’s services. This in turn had caused the best and the brightest to choose other professions. There it was in black and white. Of those surveyed, 26% planned to pur...

The vital importance of climate change education in medical schools

Myocarditis update from Sweden
BY ANISH KOKA The COVID19/vaccine myocarditis debate continues in large part because our public health institutions are grossly mischaracterizing the risks and benefits of vaccines to young people. A snapshot of what the establishment says as it relates to the particular area of concern: college vaccine mandates: Dr. Arthur Reingold, an epidemiology professor at UC-Berkeley, notes that UC also requires immunizations for measles and chickenpox, and people still are dying from COVID at rates that exceed those for influenza. As of Feb. 1, there were more than 400 COVID deaths a day across the U.S. “The arg...

More Cold Water Thrown on Some Alarmist Election Claims
This article is the first to tackle this important question. We examine all states’ district plans before and after th e 2020 round of redistricting at the congressional, state senate, and state house levels. Our primary finding is that there was little retrogression in formerly covered states. In sum, the number of minority ability districts in these states actually rose slightly. We also show that formerly covered states were largely indistinguishable from formerly uncovered states in terms of retrogression. If anything, states unaffected by Shelby County retrogressed marginally more than did states impacted by the rul...

Socialism in Theory and Practice
David BoazSixty-five percent of Democrats have a favorable view of socialism,according to Gallup. Gallup says 39 percent of Americans overall view socialism favorably, and 45 percent wouldvote for a socialist for president. Of course, they may have varying views of what " socialism " means. Some presumably mean government ownership of the means of production, the standard definition. Others may have in mind what Europeans call " social democracy, " as when Sen. Bernie Sanders defended his self-proclaimed socialism by saying he wanted the United States to be more like Denmark. The prime minister of Denmark promptly responde...
