Also, important to note is that it is only coherent systems are sensitive enough to be affected by the weak electromagnetic fields which are known to exist in the cellular realm. McFadden concludes the quantum/classical barrier exists at the sub-cellular level of biology, and that organisms are comprised of “quantum cells”.
Rodin Coil Conclusions - I became interested in the Rodin Coil design after doing research on focusing coils and ways to focus magnetic fields. The vortex-shape of the Rodin coil is something I still find interesting, in that it focuses the fields in a spiral around an 'asymtote' at the center of the torus. After building several Rodin Coils and testing them myself, I found many of Marko's claims and his theory un-substantiated by experiment. The "Ghost Coil" which was supposed to be the magical number 9 and correspond to this alleged "in-flux" from the vacuum energy was not observed. I found that when I wound that 3rd ghost winding that the inductance of the coil was increased by the exact amount that I calculated using conventional electromagnetic theory. The coil did not produce over-unity or any such energy-output effects, nor did I discover the production of an Magnetic Monopoles. I did find that Jamie was not using a sensitive enough magnetometer and that the fields were more divergent on one end than the other. Overall I feel that vorticular wound coils are useful for certain applications, such as rotating a ferrofluid in a spiral around a torus. But as for magnetic free energy... Keep dreaming. Marko Rodin's "vortex based mathematics" Conclusions - Rodin's 'Mathematics' are modular arithmetic mixed with numerology, they have very little or no applicability in modeling real vortices or anything else physical for that matter. They are occassionally mixed with references to "scripture" and other religious fantasies as well. I gave Marko the benefit of the doubt and kept my mind as open as possible while I carefully examined his explanations and theories. After testing Marko's predictions against experiment I have concluded that they are false.
McFadden’s solution is that coherent quantum systems are coordinated by an electromagnetic field. Indeed, his model of the EM field as a solution to the binding problem can be decoupled from the quantum biology discussion.
The theory seems incomplete to me. After all, the brain (and the rest of the body) is full of activity which generates electromagnetic fields. Why should only some of them, on this reading, be conscious? For that matter, why aren't ambient electromagnetic fields, like that of the Earth itself, conscious? Why don't television broadcasts have minds of their own, and given the strength of them, why don't they over-ride our conscious thoughts? At least Susan Pockett acknowledges that only certain kinds of patterns of activity can be conscious.

So my take on this it that the electromagnetic model of consciousness has to be extended to quantum physics -- or inversely quantum physics is inherently the foundation of classical electromagnetic physics -- even though there is a statistical bridge of photons to electromagnetic frequency as quantum intensity.

The quantum Zeno effect immunizes the avian compass against the deleterious effects of exchange and dipolar interactions Abstract Magnetic-sensitive radical-ion-pair reactions are understood to underlie the biochemical magnetic compass used by avian species for navigation. Recent experiments have provided growing evidence for the radical-ion-pair magnetoreception mechanism, while recent theoretical advances have unravelled the quantum nature of radical-ion-pair reactions, which were shown to manifest a host of quantum-information-science concepts and effects, like quantum measurement, quantum jumps and the quantum Zeno effect. We here show that the quantum Zeno effect provides for the robustness of the avian compass mechanism, and immunizes its magnetic and angular sensitivity against the deleterious and molecule-specific exchange and dipolar interactions.
It was recently shown [10] that radical-ion-pair reactions form a biochemical system that exhibits the quantum Zeno effect [26]. We will here show that when the quantum Zeno effect is manifested (i.e. when the recombination rates are asymmetric), the reaction’s magnetic and angular sensitivity is practically independent of the presence or not of exchange and/or dipolar interactions. This realization has profound implications for the robustness of this biological sensor, i.e. a non-trivial quantum effect renders the sensor insensitive to moleculespecific parameters [25], such as donor-acceptor distance (affecting the exchange coupling and the long-range dipolar coupling) and the inter-radical medium and the particular electronic structure (affecting the exchange coupling).
"In a 2005 paper published in the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society (U.K.), physicist Henry Stapp and one of the authors of this article, Jeffrey Schwartz, linked the QZE with what happens when close attention is paid to a mental experience. Applied to neuroscience, the QZE states that the mental act of focusing attention stabilizes the associated brain circuits. Concentrating attention on your mental experience, whether a thought, an insight, a picture in your mind’s eye, or a fear, maintains the brain state arising in association with that experience. Over time, paying enough attention to any specific brain connection keeps the relevant circuitry open and dynamically alive. These circuits can then eventually become not just chemical links but stable, physical changes in the brain’s structure. Cognitive scientists have known for 20 years that the brain is capable of significant internal change in response to environmental changes, a dramatic finding when it was first made. We now also know that the brain changes as a function of where an individual puts his or her attention. The power is in the focus. Attention continually reshapes the patterns of the brain. Among the implications: People who practice a specialty every day literally think differently, through different sets of connections, than do people who don’t practice the specialty. In business, professionals in different functions — finance, operations, legal, research and development, marketing, design, and human resources — have physiological differences that prevent them from seeing the world the same way."

An interesting question connected to the possibility of using such an intriguing effect to inhibit the environment-induced loss of quantum properties is whether a similar procedure can be implemented to protect quantum entanglement. Using an exact analytical model for two-qubits in a common environment, we have demonstrated that it is indeed possible to protect entanglement by means of the quantum Zeno effect [6].
If phase relations are lost, evolution is hindered. This leads nally to the Zeno freezing of motion. No coherence, no motion. The destruction of phase relations can be understood as phase de-localization arising from unitary quantum evolution, if the interaction of a system with its environment is taken into account. In this way, the Zeno eect can be completely understood as a dynamical eect. No collapse of the wave function is required, but only quantum nonlocality. Many-state systems can escape Zeno freezing. This is important for the properties of our experienced macroscopic world, but also for common quantum" features such as radioactive decay, which happens whether or not a counter is setup to observe the decay. (In fact, in most cases Nature herself provides the necessary counters".) Systems with only a few degrees of freedom are very sensitive to quantum entanglement and can therefore never escape the Zeno eect, if they are interacting with other systems. Zeno freezing can thus be used to delineate the borderline between classical and quantum objects.
Although the photoelectric effect is held up as the archetypal proof of the particle nature of light, there is an alternative explanation. Several researchers, starting with David Bohm in 1952, have shown that the photoelectric effect could be accounted for by considering light as an electromagnetic field interacting with, say, a metal surface composed of discrete atoms. The observed characteristics of electron emission then result because the detector is made of atoms with discrete energy levels . So it is arguable that the photoelectric effect does not establish unambiguously the reality of photons.
This seemingly nonsensical possibility is allowed because, in quantum-mechanical terms, the classical or semiclassical states of light do not correspond to definite photon numbers. Rather, they are 'superpositions' involving quantum averages of states with definite photon numbers. The average number of photons can be much less than one if many of the states that are averaged over actually contain zero photons.
Tunnelling is exclusively a wave phenomenon; it could never happen for a classical particle. Working with single-photon states, tunnelling can still occur, but any individual photon must either tunnel or be reflected, so there should be perfect anticoincidence between the two detectors.
Physicists taking this viewpoint say that a quantum entity such as an electron is actually a localised particle, but that its behaviour is guided by a physically real field satisfying the basic quantum mechanical equations. John Bell, the quantum theorist, also remarked that this type of wave-particle synthesis 'seems to me so natural and simple . . . that it is a great mystery to me that it was so generally ignored'.

You had ample opportunities to present your thoughts, but you failed at that. And what I do deride is content-free, gratuitous posting. If you said "elephant is in the room", please have the honesty to explain what exactly you meant by that. All you said was that different ways to wind coils will result in different characteristics of said coils. Duh. Doesn't count as an elephant.

Interestingly, threads like these may indicate a connection between the three stated topics in the OP.
Ill expand! I feel the most reasonable explanation for migration patterns, etc. is that they are based on the magnetic fields of the Earth. If we are seeing an increase in the Schumann Resonance* then such behavior in animals would be readily explained. Hard to say what its like from a different beings perspective, but it may be akin to being drunk. or.. "directionally challenged"
The curious part, however, is that something would likely cause this effect (because, well, thats how we understand things work, neh?). If indeed true, then I would be quite interested in learning about the cause.
*The Schumann Resonance (the "main" one, ~7hz) is according to the approximate standing wave of the circumference of the Earth. I havent looked into it much, but I would be curious as to how such a wave can actually change its frequency dramatically without also changing the parameters of what the wave is "standing" in. Piano, do you perhaps have any links you have found that point towards an explanation? I suppose it could be used to support the expanding Earth hypothesis, but I am not so sure about its validity. I have to admit, if it is shown to be increasing to ~12hz or so as claimed on the interwebs, it might be an error in data acquisition. If it isnt, I am curious as to the mechanics of such a change. It would seem more reasonable that if it is indeed increasing, it is a derivative of a different process. It would certainly be a convenient explanation for some of the "weird" things that we can observe, such as the linked thread, all the strange sounds, feelings, etc. Though, it is more probable such things are the result of the human condition, that are more easily communicated through technology. That could just be my flawed interpretation of something more complex though.
