A uniform act has governed negotiable instruments for a 100 plus years. The initial Negotiable Instruments Law was promulgated by the ULC in 1896. It was the law of the land before the first decade of the 20th Century ended. It remained the law of the land until the Uniform Commercial Code was promulgated, initially in 1951. The old NIL was incorporated into Uniform Commercial Code (UCC), Articles 3 and 4. Article 3 is called “Negotiable Instruments” and is fundamental law to all negotiable instruments. Article 4 is entitled “Bank Deposits and Collections” but is more familiarly thought of as the law of checks. A check is a negotiable instrument drawn on a “bank.” It is subject to the rules of Article 3, but Article 4 provides specific rules that apply to checks as negotiable instruments in the banking system.

Voltage And Body
Electricity and the body
The body is an electrical system. For example, an EKG measures the electrical output of the heart. We have some 50 trillion cells in our body and each one is designed to run at about minus 22 millivolts – little tiny currents of voltage on which the body operates.
When cells need to repair themselves, they increase their voltage to about minus50 millivolts. That increased voltage brings healing. If the cell cannot sustain the increased voltage long enough to complete the healing process, then the door is open to chronic pain and/or chronic infection.· At -15 mV, you are tired. At about -10 mV you are sick. If the low voltage progresses to where the cells are operating at about +30 millivolts. Continue reading “Voltage And Body”
