Poor Circulation and the Heart. When the veins and arteries that circulate blood throughout the body become occluded, or narrowed, with plaque, the heart must beat harder and faster in order to push blood past those areas of blockage.
A Term of the Supreme Court begins, by statute, on the first Monday in October. Usually Court sessions continue until late June or early July. The Term is divided between sittings, when the Justices hear cases and deliver opinions, and intervening recesses, when they consider the business before the Court and write opinions.
A term of Congress is divided into two sessions, one for each year; Congress has occasionally also been called into an extra, (or special) session (the Constitution requires Congress to meet at least once each year). A new session commences on January 3 (or another date, if Congress so chooses) each year.
