I got this peer reviewed source from google scholar. The database is reliable and it provides article from all fields. I can propose this to anyone looking for journal articles on telehealth. This database would be useful to my colleagues since it provides a wide range of articles in the least time possible. But the one problem with google scholar is that it gives majority of journal from US, UK and Australia. Hence to find articles from other countries I need to search in different databases. Like for an article on India, I will search in PubMed or Science Direct and for Journal of Brazilian Medicine I will search in SciELO. Yes, I would recommend this database.
I got an article on Telehealth from Google Scholar database. This database is specifically for Latin American journals on science and technology. While I was searching the databases, I found articles from all the countries of Latin American. Here are some of the countries listed in the database: Argentina, Belize, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba Dominican Republic Ecuador El Salvador Guatemala Honduras Guyana Haiti Honduras Nicaragua Panama Paraguay Peru Puerto Rico Suriname Uruguay Venezuela. Isn’t that great? Now I won’t have to worry about finding articles for my research.

Movements and Muscles involved in Spiking a Volleyball
Volleyball is one of the many sports that are played using a simple technique; the capability to deliver a ball to a net against all efforts of the opposing team. A volleyball spike refers o the strong attacking action carried out by a person to score against the opposing team. Both muscular and skeletal systems are critical to the performance of body movements. A volleyball spike occurs in four key phases, namely the approach, arm cocking, arm acceleration, and follow-up. There are various movements that take place in the shoulder complex when spiking a volleyball. Both the glenohumeral and shoulder joints become elated, horizontally abducted, and externally rotated in preparation for the spike. The joints also go through scapular posterior tilt, trunk extension and right rotation, upward and external rotation and side flexion. The shoulder is classified as a diarthrosis, and its structure type is ball and socket. The main shoulder movements that take place are abduction, rotation, and extension at three degrees of freedom.
Some of the muscles involved in a volleyball spike include hamstrings, quadriceps femoris, gastrocnemius, and biceps brachii. Hamstrings have their origin in ischial tuberosity and insertion is the medial tibial condyle. Because the hamstrings are often activated during spiking, they are deemed eccentric. The quadriceps femoris originates from the femur and ilium. The femus is the thighbone while the ilium is the upper pelvis. The two come together at the kneecap and insert at the tibia. Quadriceps femoris functions concentrically. The gastrocnemius originates in the lateral head, which is the posterolateral aspect of the femure media head condyle. The gastrocnemius is both concentric and eccentric. The biceps brachii originated at the scapula and its insertion of the radial tuberosity of its radius. As regards its functioning, the biceps brachii is concentric.

Introduction
Technological advancement is the order of the day in the 21st century. This comes along with plenty of positive value addition to the human life. An advance in technology is brought about by the rapid expansion of research and development sector in the multi-national companies. A perfect example of a company that invests in research and development is; Samsung technologies. This is one of the revolutionary companies that work day and night towards investing in new technologies. The rapid discovery of electrical appliances such as; microwave LED television, iPod, 7D technology, computers, cable internet and health technologies are enough evidence to support the rapid evolution of technological advancements.
Investing in health technology is one of my strategic investment areas. Developing a machine that helps HIV patients to reduce the number of viruses in the body by only exposing oneself to rays, without necessarily swallowing the anti-retroviral drugs is among my key investment plans in technology. Out of 9 billion of the planet’s population, 973 million people suffer from HIV. This exposes better side of the remaining earth’s people to contracting this disease. Therefore, to contain this menace, a machine that kills 95% of HIV virus inside the body of the victim is my technological investment goal.
Across the globe, HIV virus is a menace to every living population. This virus affects both the victims and the people close to the victim. This health technology reduces the number of deaths from the HIV patients. Thus, it works closely to saving more and more lives that are lost day-to-day from this dangerous disease. It also cuts on the budget of the victims in buying the drugs. Constant use of the drugs means a negative effect on one’s budget. This technology cuts on the victim’s expenditure by 300%. A victim needs to go for this type of treatment only twice a year, as a result, a significant reduction of budget expenditure is a notable thing to the society.
In conclusion, advancements in technology are the key strategic goals of any individual in the 21st century. This is due to its efficiency and simplicity. It doesn’t have plenty of negative impacts to the population using it.
