Most of
Western music since the Renaissance has been based on a seven-note scale known
as the diatonic scale, but when did the scale originate? A
fragment of a bone flute excavated at a Neanderthal campsite has four holes,
which are spaced in exactly the right way for playing the third through sixth
notes of a diatonic scale. The
entire flute must surely have had more holes, and the flute was made from a
bone that was long enough for these additional holes to have allowed a complete
diatonic scale to be played. Therefore, the Neanderthals who made the
flute probably used a diatonic musical scale.

Journalist: Every
election year at this time the state government releases the financial
disclosures that potential candidates must make in order to be eligible to run
for office. Among those making the
required financial disclosure this year is a prominent local businessman,
Arnold Bergeron. There has often been
talk in the past of Mr. Bergeron's running for governor, not least from Mr.
Bergeron himself. This year it is likely he finally will, since those who have discounted
the possibility of a Bergeron candidacy have always pointed to the necessity of
making financial disclosure as the main obstacle to such a candidacy.

Hunter: Hunters alone are blamed for the decline in Greenrock
National
Forest's deer population over the past ten
years. Yet clearly, black bears have also played an important role in this
decline. In the past ten years, the
forest's protected black bear population has risen sharply, and examination of
black bears found dead in the forest during the deer hunting season showed that
a number of them had recently fed on deer.

A
prominent investor who holds a large stake in the Burton Tool Company has recently
claimed that the company is mismanaged.
As evidence for this claim, the investor cited the company's failure to
slow production in response to a recent rise in its inventory of finished
products. It is doubtful whether an investor's sniping at management can ever be
anything other than counterproductive, but in this case it is clearly not
justified. It is true that an
increased inventory of finished products often indicates that production is
outstripping demand. In Burton's
case it indicates no such thing, however:
the increase in inventory is entirely attributable to products that have
already been assigned to orders received from customers.

Last
year a record number of new manufacturing jobs were created. Will this year bring another record? Well,
any new manufacturing job is created either within an existing company or by
the start-up of a new company.
Within existing firms, new jobs have been created this year at well
below last year’s record pace. At the same time, there is considerable
evidence that the number of new companies starting up will be no higher this
year than it was last year and surely the new companies starting up this year
will create no more jobs per company than did last year’s start-ups. So clearly, the number of new jobs created
this year will fall short of last year’s record.
