and endocrine components including hypothalamic releasing hor-
mones, growth hormone, and multiple downstream effectors, the
regulation comprises the full spectrum of upstream influencers
coming from the psychosocial, economic, and emotional environ-
ment including signaling dominance, competence, prestige, or
subordination and indulgence, all of this being sensitive to urban
or rural lifestyle, the political climate, and with marked plasticity
throughout history. New statistical techniques (St. Nicolas House
Analysis) are presented for analyzing anthropometric variables for
