bunrabStacks of science and other magazines sitting around, that should have gone into the paper recycling bin a while ago. So:
Science, June 3, 2006: Bipolar kids misinterpret facial cues as hostile. When viewing expressions, they read faces that the adult researchers and that normal kids though were neutral, as being hostile. Emotional centers in their brains lit up more, too. Hmmm, perhaps those charts of facial expressions that shrinks give a lot of depressed, bipolar, and otherwise somewhat-off people to study might actually be worth the study, to retrain those bad habits of misinterpretation.
Scientific American has a blog on its website. Here's a sample of it.
Skeptic, Vol 12 #2 2006: (1)Mentions the Ig Nobels. You can view the most recent Ig Nobel awards ceremondy at http://www.improbable.com/ig/ . (2) An article about a creationist "scientific" conference by James Rosenhouse, who is the editor of EvolutionBlog (formerly at http://evolutionblog.blogspot.com/, where you can read back stuff, and now at http://www.scienceblogs.com/evolutionblog/ . ScienceBlogs looks like it will probably have LOTS of stuff to read. (3) An article about the Dover trial shows a pic of a couple of the attorneys with "Professor Steve Steve" of the weblog Panda's Thumb (pandasthumb.org) "Professor Steve Steve" is a stuffed toy panda. If you aren't sure why naming the mascot Steve Steve is funny, you need to read more!!
OK, that takes care of part of the pile. More later. The really tough part is getting rid of Sing Out because the number of albums I want to buy based on their reviews, and folk festivals and camps I want to go to, is completely impossible and I want them all and I can't, waaaaah!!!
