Strength and co-ordination are a consequence of integrated neuro-motor control functions. These functions usually rely on small muscles that make fine adjustments to the bodies position and movement vectors. Information that the control system receives regarding the muscle response influences how cautiously it will engage the large muscle groups...
BackgroundMoving around has always been at the top of every evolutionary “got to have” checklist. From Jellyfish to fish of all stripes, to land animals to us, improvements in locomotion confer a survival advantage.

Digesting our meals requires much of our energetic capacity, and many other bodily functions slow or stall until our food is broken up. We experience this as coldness in our extremities or our brains...
The migration from Analog to Digital wave forms (DWF) was the precipitating ever of our move into our wireless society. DWF pack vastly more information into the same space as Analog waves do. We are in essence, participating in a global experiment to see if it is in fact possible to have a wireless digital society. Our grandchildren may look back...
New Research suggests that chronic loneliness can cause cardiovascular restriction, compromised immune function and arouse the Fight or Flight response. It suggests that we have evolved a stress response to isolation to prevent us from diverging too far from group protection, and that we experience emotional pain when we do. It offers insights...
Eight bones together comprise our cranial vault. Often it is written in the U.S. (1) that by the age of 25 these bones have fused and that the skull has thus become in essence one large bone. This description is thought based on early (circa 1900) cadaver dissections (2). European anatomy texts and recent Histological examinations of the...
