Head transplant surgery used to be a dream that we only saw in science fiction movies such as The Incredible Two-Headed Transplant (pictured above). However, CNET brings us word that one Italian scientist says he's a mere two years away from being able to do real-life human head transplants.
DON'T MISS: I thought the 'What color is this dress?' controversy was stupid... until I asked my wife to weigh in
Surgeon Sergio Canavero, director of the Turin Advanced Neuromodulation Group in Italy, thinks he's developed a new technique for head transplants that will avoid some of the problems caused by earlier attempts at such surgeries involving dogs and monkeys.
"In a paper published in Surgical Neurology International, he has outlined his technique: first, both the transplant head and the donor body would need to be cooled in order to slow cell death," CNET explains. "Then, the neck of both would be cut and the major blood vessels linked with tubes. Finally, the spinal cords would be severed, with as clean a cut as possible."
The past failed attempts at head transplant surgery with animals have yielded some pretty disgusting results and we have to say that the thought of having our heads frozen and our spinal cords severed just sounds... really, really, really bad. We'll be interested to see how many people out there volunteer for Canavero's first test run of this surgery should be ever get clearance to try it out on humans.

I posted this on the
Force is within YOU many a moon ago due to my own interest in the topic. I posted some more detailed links back in those day's. But all the same, it's quite fascinating that pretty much every link to esoteric knowledge relies upon breathing through the stomach
Enteric nervous system
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enteric_nervous_system
QuoteThe enteric nervous system (ENS) or intrinsic nervous system is one of the main divisions of the nervous system and consists of a mesh-like system of neurons that governs the function of the gastrointestinal system.[1]It is now usually referred to as separate from the autonomic nervous system since it has its own independent reflex activity.[2][3]
It is derived from neural crest cells.[4][5]
Now for fun go and look up people who have had Organ Transplant's ... That is when the world get's a little odd :D

... breathing through the stomach
Could you explain what you mean by this? ???
Thanks in advance. :)
I don't think they mean thru the stomach exactly
diaphragmatic breathing means using the diaphragm not the nose or mouth
it's an ease task to see which you are using
lay on your back with one hand on your stomach and one on your chest
breath
which hand moved?
breathing from your stomach / diaphragm means the entire lung/s are involved
thur the mouth/nose you are only using the top part of the lungs
babies all do stomach breathing...adults go all sorts of ways
the lungs clean the blood..the blood feeds the body..
to breathe from the stomach you have more energy
did you know that your nostils take turns...
bhahahahahahahahah
go look that up
;D ::)
hi Soma..thumbs up to the force
