EXERCISES FOR UPPER BACK PAIN

· Cross hands over chest and rotate them.
· Hold a stick behind the neck and rotate the trunk.
· Standing back towards the wall, sliding arms on the wall.
· Prone-raise both arms.
· Wall push-ups.
· Rowing exercise with stretch hand.
· Shoulder shrugs(with barbell/band)
· Lateral rows-holding band and raising sideways.

The neck and upper back region is an extremely complex area of the body because of many joints working in coordination.
Most treatments usually are not effective as they only address the symptoms not the cause of the affliction. Hence exercise is advised.

There is no stronger craving in the world

than that of the rich for titles,

except perhaps that of the titled for riches.

LEADERS: LEARN FROM OBAMA

TAKE A CUE FROM OBAMA

The US President-elect Mr. Baraka Obama has named senator Ms. Hillary Clinton as his Secretary of State, who was till the other day his rival, a candidate in the race for presidential nomination. Further, he has decided to retain Mr. Robert Gates as Defence Secretary who has served several Republican administrations.
Are such arrangement possible in India? In theory, it is the prerogative of the Prime Minister to select and appoint the members of his Cabinet. But in India, merit rarely prevails. We wish that wisdom of Mr. Obama dawns on our leaders too.
