When jerks result from brief cessation of ongoing muscular activity, they are called negative myoclonus (NM). Positive myoclonus is generally more common, while NM frequently occurs in hospital settings, as a result of toxicâmetabolic causes.
Aaron Ogden. Aaron Ogden (December 3, 1756 â April 19, 1839) was a United States Senator and the fifth Governor of New Jersey.
Aaron Ogden had a license from the State of New York to navigate between New York City and the New Jersey Shore. Ogden found himself competing with Thomas Gibbons, who had been given permission to use the waterways by the Federal Government. After the State of New York denied Gibbons access to the Hudson Bay, he sued Ogden. The case went to the Supreme Court, and Chief Justice Marshall's opinion carried out the clear original intent of the Constitution to have Congress, not the states, regulate interstate commerce.
