The Nervous System                                                                  By: Jessica Bajek

           The nervous System is made up of the brain, the spinal cord and nerves. Your brain is the control center of your body. The top of your brain is the cerebrum. The cerebrum controls learning. It is much larger than the cerebrum. Your cerebellum controls your muscles and movement of your body after you have though about moving. Your medulla controls your internal organs like your heart, lungs and stomach. Your spinal cord is a large bundle of nerves. Information that travels to and from your brain moves through your spinal cord. The nerves that carry messages to your brain are called sensory neurons. Your brain sends messages back to your body through motor neurons.

Health Kinesiology

By - Jess Bajek

     Health Kinesiology is also known as HK. HK is  best described as an advanced and integrated system of Bio Energetic Kinesiology. Dr. Jimmy Scott is the founder of HK. HK focuses on health and wellness. HK includes concepts from acupuncture and acupressure. HK also deals with biochemical, nutritional, environmental and ecological issues. Also HK works with animals. I have been practicing HK for ten years. HK was discovered in 1978. The basic structure of the H.K. System was in place by 1981.
     Using HK you can eliminate allergies, release physical toxicity, emotional traumas, over come learning blocks and help you perform at your best. When you practice HK, you use muscle testing and monitoring to identify the order of the energy balancing that needs to be done. Dr. Jimmy Scott received his degree in Physiological Psychology from the University of North Carolina. He spends several years at the National Institute of Mental Health before joining the University of California School of Medicine. First at the Davis campus and later at the San Francisco campus.
     When I first saw a demonstration of muscle testing, I was both fascinated and skeptical. I continued watching more and more demonstrations. Then Dr. Scott became a psychologist and started a practice of doing bio feed back and relaxation training with clients. At that point I continued learning about health and nutrition. Then I got involved with Kinesiology. This was an interesting topic. HK offers an approach, parenthood of discovery, a way of thinking clearly and logically. To this day I practice HK and always will.

West Nile Virus
Author-James Bogdanski

The West Nile Virus is a deadly virus carried by a mosquito and is located at Louisiana and there is a few in Washington D.C.  What happens if this mosquito bites you is that it causes inflammation of the spinal cord and brain.
There is no cure for this, but you can recover from it.  The West Nile Virus is very rare.  There is a way to keep mosquitoes from coming to your house and there is a way to keep them from biting you, to keep them from biting you, just buy an insect repellant and they will stop biting you. 
If you want to keep them away from your house, there is a product you can buy called Sonic Web.  What this is, is that when mosquitoes come by, they will get attracted to the Sonic Net and it will trap them on a sticky surface. 
This product is a bit pricey though, it is 300 dollars.  I guess if you are tired of mosquitoes coming at your house, I guess it is worth buying the Sonic Web. 
If you get bitten by a mosquito, go to your doctor and ask if the mosquito that bit you has the West Nile Virus, if you do, then you are out of luck, because there is no cure for this virus.  Most infections are not severe.
