Hisshou - Razor Sharp High Carbon Steel - Certain Victory Sword. (View image by itself) High Satin finish, Razor-Sharp Cutting Edge Let us be clear: the Hisshou, designed by James Williams, is a specialized tool that is intended for military personnel and special forces operators.
James developed this design to meet the specific requests of coalition forces overseas for a more powerful tactical tool than his CRKT Hissatsu™, which is in wide use. Historically, military swords have been sized to fit the fighting environment. Long swords, such as the English broad sword and Japanese katana, could only be used effectively on open fields of battle. The Hisshou comes into play when the operator’s firearms cannot be used, as often happens in entry and search operations. Cold Steel Battle Ready Warrior Katana 88BKW.

The Warrior Series swords are very handsome in their own right and share the same steel, heat treatment, and sharpness as their more expensive Imperial counterparts. Like the Imperial swords, they have Samé covered, cord wrapped handles and quality fittings. This is a True Swords Featured Full Tang product listing.

Brain Basics: Know Your Brain: National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) Introduction The brain is the most complex part of the human body. This three-pound organ is the seat of intelligence, interpreter of the senses, initiator of body movement, and controller of behavior.
Lying in its bony shell and washed by protective fluid, the brain is the source of all the qualities that define our humanity. The brain is the crown jewel of the human body. For centuries, scientists and philosophers have been fascinated by the brain, but until recently they viewed the brain as nearly incomprehensible.

10% of the Brain Myth. Let me state this very clearly: There is no scientific evidence to suggest that we use only 10% of our brains.
Let's look at the possible origins of this "10% brain use" statement and the evidence that we use all of our brain. Where Did the 10% Myth Begin? The 10% statement may have been started with a misquote of Albert Einstein or the misinterpretation of the work of Pierre Flourens in the 1800s. Brain Explorer - StumbleUpon.

LII Supreme Court Collection: Historic decisions by topic. Culture Vaults : Resonant Frequencies and the Human Brain - StumbleUpon. One of the great revelations of 20th century science is that all existence can be broken down into simple wave functions.
Every photon, energy emission, and elementary particle rings with its own unique wave signature. When we see a color, we are actually seeing a distinct frequency of visible light. When we hear a sound, our eardrums are actually being vibrated by subtle waves in the air molecules around us. Even the neurochemical processes of human consciousness our very thoughts ring with their own distinct wave patterns.
By studying the way that waves interact with other waves, researchers have found that even low-powered oscillations can have enormous effects on standing waves, physical structures, and even the human brain. Tesla first realized the massive potential of resonant waves in 1898 when he performed a simple experiment with an electromechanical oscillator the size of an alarm clock.

The Influences of the Family of Origin on Career Development: A Review and. Career self-efficacy and perceptions of parent support in adolescent career development. The authors examined the relative contributions of both proximal and distal supports to the career interests and vocational self-efficacy in a multiethnic sample (N = 139) of middle school adolescents.

Studies have shown that meditating regularly can help relieve symptoms in people who suffer from chronic pain, but the neural mechanisms underlying the relief were unclear. Now, MIT and Harvard researchers have found a possible explanation for this phenomenon. In a study published online April 21 in the journal Brain Research Bulletin, the researchers found that people trained to meditate over an eight-week period were better able to control a specific type of brain waves called alpha rhythms. “These activity patterns are thought to minimize distractions, to diminish the likelihood stimuli will grab your attention,” says Christopher Moore, an MIT neuroscientist and senior author of the paper.
