Cnotta Research Institute:
Description in Summary

Vincent J Cataldi -- Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Cnotta Research Institute, to be incorporated as a nonprofit organization, will engage in biomedical research and the development of 'Expert
System' products that promise to control the anatomical aging process. This research and development will focus upon reversing the
anatomical deterioration normally associated with aging which is caused almost solely, I believe, by mechanical 'knotting' of the body. This
knotting process is highly complex but can be resolved without benefit of surgery, drugs, or tools.

The Institute will develop an 'Expert System' that can be 'trained' to identify an individual's knot type and level of progression and to indicate
appropriate un-knotting procedures. Trained professionals then will be able to prescribe individual therapy based upon these 'expert' diagnoses.

The Discovery: I made my discovery over a three-decade period as I refined physical therapy techniques to overcome anatomical birth defects
so that I could become an Olympic-caliber runner. My initial goal was to maximize the efficiency of my legs by realigning their hard, soft, and
firm components. However, as the realignment progressed I became increasingly aware that the body is a highly-complex web of cross bracing
that directly links each finger to its counterpart toe, joint by joint.

I discovered this direct linkage while chasing down a weakness of my right foot and experiencing secondary results in the right hand. It became
obvious that I could not realign my legs independently of my arms, nor realign my legs and arms independently of my jaw, nor realign . . . etc.

Procedures: The Procedures I developed to dissolve the overall knot act upon related kinks of the knot in such a way that they nullify each other
and thus gradually simplify the knot. While the ratchet nature of the knot normally prevents reversal of motion I developed procedures to
defeat this ratchet mechanism and to pull the knot apart.

These procedures, however, require significant expertise and are too complex and even too risky to teach to the masses. The Institute therefore
will research and develop a combination of diagnostic equipment and simple non-surgical medical procedures to un-knot individuals on a mass
scale.

The Knot: Void of its knot, the body can be thought of as a hollow, elongated sphere with a perimeter wall having separate inner and outer
muscular control. The knotting process begins when the outer muscles of one side weaken and the inner muscles of that side begin to
compensate by migrating outward through the wall, causing the outer muscles to slide inward. The other side of the body simultaneously
suffers complementary migrations.

The sphere is thus divided vertically into two three-dimensional regions, mirrored complements of each other, each knotting through the
center; the inner kinks thus have twice the complexity of the outer kinks. The process of knotting continues as each of these regions
simultaneously subdivides again, this time horizontally. Thus the complexity of the knot grows exponentially.

The knot, driven by gravity, falls through its center and applies tremendous mechanical leverage to the weakened outer wall. Mechanical
linkage, somewhat like an helixical worm gear equipped with a ratchet mechanism, converts this downward force into a contorting inward
pressure and, in effect, the body is incrementally strangled from within.

As outer muscles migrate inward, sliding through their counterparts, the body loses control and feeling of the displaced inner muscles. The
perceptible perimeter recognized by the brain remains with the displaced outer muscles. Although a simplistic description, in essence this is the
source of a very complex and illusive knot.

Much of what I believe is not yet confirmed empirically. However, having worked within a knot for many years, I expect that the research project
will find the following: 1) the nature of knots is highly predictable, varying little among individuals, and classifications therefore should be easy
to establish; 2) analysis of kinks within any two appendages (hands and/or feet) will enable accurate forecasting of each individual's overall
knot; 3) while current procedures necessarily attack the knot from its center this research project should enable development of medical
procedures which also can attack the outer kinks so that the slip knot can slide apart; 4) infants and non-muscular individuals will prove to be
most easily un-knotted and females, who generally have simpler knots than males, possibly due to differences in weight distribution, might well
prove more easily un-knotted than males.

Un-Knotting Benefits: Un-knotting is highly beneficial; treated individuals will feel and even look younger. No other procedure is equally
effective: physical therapy involving weights reinforces the knottedness; even running and aerobic exercise jam the knot before its solution. Un-
knotting therapy, however, addresses the very cause of anatomical aging: it eliminates chronic muscular stress accumulated over time and,
because the entire body is realigned, even the face appears younger. After un-knotting simple stretching exercises easily can maintain the
realignment and more youthful appearance.

There are many other benefits which I observed or inferred during my un-knotting experience. These include:

OBSERVABLE BENEFITS: Un-knotting myself caused many interrelated anatomical changes. Muscles now crisscross front to back and left to
right at the midpoint between joints and remain straight and strong at the joints where the bone is weak.

My ankles, knees, and hips are significantly straighter than they were. Kinks in my wrists, elbows, and shoulders, which anchored the cross
bracing for my ankles, knees, and hips, also are now realigned. My stomach and upper back shifted inward, while my chest and lower back
shifted outward. As a result of straightening the curves within the kinks, my overall height is increased, my fingers and toes are longer.

My jaw relaxed and crowded teeth straightened, even wisdom teeth aligned properly. My chin now is more symmetrical, cheek bones have risen
and rounded, the bridge of my nose has flattened, and my Adams apple has vanished.

My vision, hearing, and balance also improved dramatically and I suspect these improvements resulted because pressures, specifically inner-
ear pressure and pressures which bisect the eyeball, were eliminated and because my mental processes became more acute.

INFERRED BENEFITS: Basically, un-knotting seems to restore the center of gravity properly within the body. Contrary to current medical charts, I
believe research will show that the center should lie at the midpoint of the imaginary line segment connecting the navel and the first lumbar
vertebra.

Although I do not as yet have evidence that biological aging is governed by mechanical alignment of the body, this is an intriguing possibility.
The knot strangles all internal organs, including the brain, and most likely chokes blood flow. I believe that research will prove that pressures
caused by knotting trigger biological aging processes.

Other inferred and suspected benefits of un-knotting which might warrant investigation would include: 1) un-knotted mothers might deliver
children with simpler knots or even no knot at all, and birth will likely be less traumatic for both mother and infant; 2) PET-scan analysis might
prove that overall brain activity increases significantly after un-knotting; 3) hemispherical brain activity, predominately one-sided in men, might
balance; 4) male pattern baldness, which might be due to loss of blood flow, might reverse; 5) fighter pilots, once un-knotted, might withstand
increased G-forces; 6) muscle atrophy in weightlessness might be reduced; 7) simplified linkage schemes might allow development of bipedal
robots.

Research/Development Goals: I project it will take five years before a human test can begin and perhaps ten years before the developed
technology becomes ubiquitously available to the public. I see five primary research/development goals to be achieved before the human test:

IDENTIFICATION. Analysis and documentation of what I have personally achieved anatomically, using a CAT scanner and related modeling
hardware and software, and identification of the knot and its ratchet mechanism within the knotted bodies of a sample population of at least
1000 individuals.

CLASSIFICATION . Analysis and classification of the sample population to determine possible and probable knot types and the progressive
stages of knot development.

KNOT-SOLVING SOFTWARE. Development of an expert system, modeling software which I can 'train' to solve a knot. This software ultimately
must be able to knot and un-knot a CAT-scan derived image.

UN-KNOTTING PROCEDURES. Development of non-surgical procedures and simple micro-surgical equipment capable of unlocking the ratchet
mechanism and dissolving the knot.

Product Development: Development of diagnostic equipment which can identify an individual's knot type and level of progress and then
indicate specific un-knotting procedures. This might employ a miniaturized low-resolution CAT scanner just large enough to analyze a hand or
foot.

In order to achieve these goals, the company requires as president a biomedical engineer with substantial experience in the management of
research and development projects to be solely responsible for initiating the project, recruiting other personnel, and overseeing its ongoing
progress. This research project also will require a great deal of high technology, much of which very likely already exists and requires only
modification.

Start-Up Funding The Institute currently seeks start-up funding in order to attract qualified people, to secure the required technological
equipment, and to bring the project to a human-test phase. This funding is anticipated from two sources: 1) joint venture relationships and 2)
pre-sale revenues.

Joint venture relationships will be sought to secure most of the required human and technological resources which will be required: especially 1)
CAT scan, 2) 'Expert System', and 3) pattern recognition technology. The Institute also plans to pre-sell its unique physical therapy services and
recruit funding support for a 100-person field trial five years hence.

2-94 - Knotting Geometry

Cnotta is an evolving shape, a mechanical process.

It is a highly interconnected System of environments, processes solving for their own global
minimum and competing with differing mechanical leverage wrt each other, and over time.

These regions compete for stress reduction and flexibility.

Cnotta is the physical shifting of fibrous muscle tissue wrt other muscles and the firm tendons and
bony support structures. The fibrous muscles slide through each other, and along each other. Sliding
at key locations causes mechanical leverage to pressure the system toward continuation.

Rules: Cats cradle technology

The process is the shape. the shape is, ideally, at time zero, two inter-twined ten by ten matrices.
The ten by ten is the link of fingers to toes along one side of the body.

As the linkage passes through the torso it interacts with each other like helixical worm gears.

This clock like mechanism is based very simple string game principals with a few modifications.

Cats cradle enhanced rules allow for solid and firm components as well as the string rules when
building a knot.
Consider the very simple example of the spine alone, although this is only possible for illustration.

Its a crane with a flexible tower: This tower is constructed by piling tower modules upon each other
with a pivotal link both above and below, it also has four columns of cording pulling down on each
of the corners so that the tower can remain erect.

Now imagine that these control cords are far more complex because they are actually a series of
cords that entered and exited the primary cord structures at each disk.

This would allow you to pull a little harder up near the top on the left, relax a bit on the right and tip
the tower to the right only on the towers top and still stand erect.
Now back to the entire torso; the super support for the tower

Principles: The tower

Like an umbrella hub structure, only doubled above and below you and enclosing you like a cage,
the process is designed to support an upright cylinder-like structure by apply counter-balanced
pulling forces evenly across the outer perimeter of the net to gain flexibility.

This outer net does not support the weight of the structure, but exercises considerable control over
the system with great mechanical leverage.

Thus it stress the process and is also the key to resolve and unwind the process.

Structure Overview / Primary Semi-Systems / Secondary semi-systems

Primary semi-system interaction: Phase shifting occurs when two regions each flexible three
dimensional, intersects directly and can when combined result in two regions stripped of some
flexibility but each in a complimentary physical path.

Secondary semi-system interaction / General Process behavior Process behavior somewhat

predetermined through elimination of feasible solutions.

the math is simple because it is ones complement logic.

The process explodes in complexity due to the super highly interconnected fibers of the system.

Its obeys conservation of energy laws as a mechanical process.

The process is discontinuous, jerky and the counter-part sub-systems increasingly slide out of phase
with each other.

processing continues with increasing complexity which drastically reduce the physical options at
the local levels, and the remaining options will store increasingly higher levels of energy before
reaching their thresh-hold limits especially phase shifting.

Although the effects of progression are predictable only for an individual downwardly, as the
process is reversed it flows itself out naturally and predictably with great generalizations The
process increasingly finds the mandatory solving of each local minimum
it only provides system degradation and slow collapse.
Extraordinary events can easily redirect the continuation of the process, but without deliberate
action the process is inevitable.

Strategic Assessment Plan

Build simple working models which demonstrate the principals Locate virtual reality to examine
and manipulate the base-line image

Attempt to predict where directed efforts might speed up the current un-knotting process test.

KNOT
KNOT (O.E. cnotta, from a Teutonic stem knutt; cf. " knit," and Ger. knoten)
KNOT (O.E. cnotta, from a Teutonic stem knutt; cf. " knit," and Ger. knoten) , an intertwined loop
of rope, cord, string or other flexible material, used to fasten two such ropes, &c., to one another, or
to another object . (For the various forms which such " knots " may take see below.) The word is
also used for the distance-marks on a log-line, and hence as the equivalent of a nautical mile (see
LoG), and for any hard mass, resembling a knot drawn tight, especially one formed in the trunk of a
tree at the place of insertion of a branch . Knots in wood are the remains of dead branches which
have become buried in the wood of the trunk or branch on which they were borne . When a branch
dies down or is broken off, the dead stump becomes grown over by a healing tissue, and, as the
stem which bears it increases in thickness, gradually buried in the newer wood . When a section is
made of the stem the dead stump appears in the section as a knot; thus in a board it forms a circular
piece of wood, liable to fall out and leave a " knot-hole." " Knot " or " knob " is an architectural
term for a bunch of flowers, leaves or other ornamentation carved on a corbel or on a boss . The
word is also applied figuratively to any intricate problem, hard to disentangle, a use stereotyped in
the proverbial " Gordian knot," which, according to the tradition, was cut by Alexander the Great
(see GoRDIUM) . Knots, Bends, Hitches, Splices and Seizings are all ways of fastening cords or
ropes, either to some other object such as a spar, or a ring, or to one another . The " knot " is formed
to make a knob on a rope, generally at the extremity, and by untwisting the strands at the end and
weaving them together . But it may be made by turning the rope on itself through a loop, as for
instance, the " overhand knot " (fig . 1) . A bend " (from the same root as " bind "), and a " hitch "
(an O.E. word), are ways of fastening or tying ropes together, as in the " Carrick bend " (fig . 21), or
round spars as the Studding Sail Halyard Bend (fig . 19), and the TIMBER ...
