1. A spinal screw apparatus, comprising: a screw, comprising a shaft and a screw head attached to said shaft, wherein said screw head further comprises a portion of a sphere;a movable head comprising a top portion and a bottom portion and an interior, wherein said interior is larger than said screw head, and being movable with respect to said screw head, said movable head having a U-trough through said top portion, wherein said U-trough has a U-trough axis; andwherein said movable head comprises a through-passageway bounded by an inner wall, wherein said inner wall comprises, adjacent a bottom of said through-passageway, a cylindrical surface and a single substantially planar surface. 2. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein said single substantially planar surface is parallel to said U-trough axis. 3. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein said cylindrical surface is located opposite said single substantially planar surface. 4. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein said cylindrical surface has an axis, and said single substantially planar surface is parallel to said axis. 5. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein said cylindrical surface intersects a first bottom surface of said movable head bottom portion and said single substantially planar surface intersects a second bottom surface of said movable head bottom portion, wherein said first bottom surface and said second bottom surface are in different planes. 6. The apparatus of claim 5, wherein said first bottom surface and said second bottom surface are parallel to each other. 7. The apparatus of claim 5, wherein said first bottom surface of said movable head bottom portion is positioned between said second bottom surface and said top portion of said moveable head. 8. A spinal screw apparatus, comprising: a screw, comprising a shaft and a screw head attached to said shaft, wherein said screw head further comprises a portion of a sphere; anda movable head comprising a top portion and a bottom portion and an interior, wherein said interior receives said screw head, and said moveable head being movable with respect to said screw head, wherein said movable head has a U-trough through said top portion, wherein said U-trough has a U-trough axis; andwherein said movable head has a bottom opening through said bottom portion, wherein said bottom opening has a contact perimeter shape, wherein said contact perimeter shape comprises a curved portion and a single straight portion that connects with said curved portion. 9. The apparatus of claim 8, wherein said single straight portion of said contact perimeter shape is parallel to said U-trough axis. 10. The apparatus of claim 8, wherein said contact perimeter shape comprises said single straight portion, and a first curved transition portion that follows from said single straight portion, and said curved portion that follows from said first curved transition portion, and a second curved transition portion that follows from said curved portion and further connects to said single straight portion. 11. The apparatus of claim 8, wherein a length of said single straight portion is less than a diameter of said curved portion. 12. The apparatus of claim 8, wherein said single straight portion lies in a first plane and at least a portion of said curved portion lies in a second plane, and said first plane and said second plane are different from each other. 13. The apparatus of claim 12, wherein said first plane and said second plane are parallel to each other.
