This 651-page book on the FBI is a personal story supplement to the book, Crimes of the FBI-DOJ, and the Mafia. It is the story of a highly decorated Vietnam helicopter pilot, an FBI agent in the New York area, Richard Taus, who discovered major areas of criminal misconduct in government offices.
Pituitary Gland. The pituitary gland, or hypophysis, is about the size of a pea and sits in the small, bony cavity (sella turcica) at the base of the brain. The pituitary gland is divided into two sections: the anterior lobe (adenohypophysis) and the posterior lobe (neurohypophysis). The posterior pituitary is, in effect, a projection of the hypothalamus. It does not produce its own hormones, but only stores and releases the hormones created by the hypothalamus, whereas the anterior pituitary produces and secretes its own hormones.
Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH): TSH stimulates the thyroid gland to produce hormones. The posterior lobe contains the ends of nerve cells coming from the hypothalamus. The hypothalamus sends hormones directly to the posterior lobe via these nerves, and then the pituitary gland releases them.
