'''Shivering''' is a bodily function in response to early [[hypothermia]] in [[warm-blooded]] animals. When the core [[body temperature]] drops, the shivering [[reflex]] is triggered. [[Muscle]] groups around the [[vital organ]]s begin to shake in small movements in an attempt to create warmth by expending [[energy]]. Shivering can also be a response to a [[fever]] as a person may feel cold, though their core temperature is already elevated. |

==Life== |
|||
Located in the dorsomedial portion of the [[hypothalamus]] near the wall of the [[third ventricle]] is an area called the primary motor center for shivering. This area is normally inhibited by signals from the heat center in the anterior hypothalamic-preoptic area but is excited by cold signals from the [[skin]] and [[spinal cord]]. Therefore, this center becomes activated when the body temperature falls even a fraction of a degree below a critical temperature level. |

He was the son of Lorenzo B. Jones and Sophronia (Chapman) Jones. He was educated at [[Leicester, Massachusetts]]. In 1850, he married Mary A. Tarbell, of [[Pepperell, Massachusetts]]. |
|||
He fought with the 6th Massachusetts Regiment in the [[American Civil War]], finishing the war as a [[Brevet (military)|Brevet]] [[Brigadier general (United States)|brigadier general]]. In 1862, he married Susan Annie Brown, from [[Boston]]. In 1865, he opened a [[Weighing scale|scales]] manufacturing plant at Binghamton, and became widely known for his new means of advertising. He created the [[slogan]] "Jones pays the freight", meaning that, unlike his competitors, he would not charge anything for the delivery of his scales to the buyer. |

Increased muscular activity results in wasted heat - here the heat is utilized for warmth. |

He was [[Lieutenant Governor of New York]] from 1886 to 1891, elected on the [[United States Democratic Party|Democratic]] ticket with Governor [[David B. Hill]]. |

Shivering can also appear after surgery. This is known as ''[[post-surgical shivering]]''. |

In 1905, he published the [[novel]] ''Richard Baxter: A Story of New England Life of 1830 to 1840''. |
