The biggest false implication of staff notation is the key. Western staff notation inherently ties the music to a particular key. This is something that has never been implied in Indian music. The key is merely a question of personal convenience. Material is routinely transposed up and down to whatever the musician finds comfortable. Over the years a convention of transposing all material to the key of C has been adopted; unfortunately, this convention is usually not understood by the casual reader.
One other problem associated with staff notation is the implication of equal-temperament. This clearly is not implied in Indian music.

Smoking may be responsible for over a third of cases of the most severe form of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). RA is an disease characterized by joint swelling, pain, stiffness and fatigue. It usually arises between the ages of 40 and 60 and can cause severe disability as it progresses. Although treatments exist to control the spread of the condition, there is as yet no perfect cure.
The study also demonstrated that smoking is particularly risky for people who are already genetically susceptible to RA; in this group, 55% of cases can be attributed to smoking.
"The fact that more than 50% of RA cases can be attributed to smoking in individuals carrying two copies of the HLA-DRB1 SE genes illustrates drastically how smoking may affect disease risk differently in different individuals," the researchers point out.
