Lateralised headaches have followed the use of mobile ‘phones, perhaps due to activation of muscle spindles by magnetic fields, from internal hardware and from radio frequency signals. Symmetrical headaches have followed the use…

The Science of Birdsong., vocal spectral analysis, vocalisationThe intention to vocalise is followed by contraction of the stapedius muscles, which reduces vibrations of the stapes (stirrup) bones, and thus the transmission of sound waves through the oval windows to the inner ears. The pitch, pace, pause and power of vocalisations qualify verbalisations. Comparisons can be made within sentences and between sentences, when…
