1.Term limits kick out the good leaders who may deserve to stay in office for excellent work. 2. Every job has a learning curve, and Congress is no exception. Any new politicians would have to go through that when they come into office.
Thalamic Stimulation. A double-blind, randomized trial of bilateral stimulation of the anterior nucleus of the thalamus for epilepsy (SANTE) demonstrated a reduction in seizures among a majority of patients with medically refractory partial seizures. The multicenter trial was sponsored by medical device manufacturer Medtronic.
The thalamus is typically (depending on the animal) ventral and medial in relation to the cortex, and anterior to the midbrain. It lies just ventral from the third ventricle. Its function is to relay information from the sensory organs (except the olfactory system), the hindbrain, midbrain, and the spinal cord to the cortex, hippocampus and basal ganglia. For example, the lateral geniculate nucleus recieves innervation from the retina and relays it to the visual cortex.
