The vertebral column, also called the spine, provides support for the trunk of the body, protects the spinal cord, and provides attachment points for the ribs and muscles of the back and trunk.
The spine has 4 natural curves. This "S" shape allows for it to act more like a spring for the body rather than a straight stiff rod and helps to provide resilience for bearing the weight and motion of the body.
The vertebral column consists of 5 major divisions:
Located between the individual vertebrae are cushions called intervertebral disks. These disks act like shock absorbers during physical activity such as walking, jumping, or lifting, and allow the spine to extend and flex.
Each vertebra and disk is named by its division and order. For example, the first lumbar vertebra is called "L1", the second is called "L2" and the disk in between is called the "L1 - L2 intervertebral disk." The lumbar portion of the spine supports most of the body's weight and is the most common area for back pain.
The vertebrae are designed to help protect the spinal cord and the spinal nerves that extend from the spinal cord to the various parts of the body. The protection of the spinal cord and its nerves are important for maintaining good body function and health. Each intervertebral disk consists of 2 parts. The center of the disk is called the nucleus pulposus, which acts like a rubber ball to provide cushioning during compression. The nucleus pulposus is surrounded by a tough fibrous outer covering called the annulus fibrosus. The annulus fibrosus protects the nucleus pulposus and keeps its jelly-like material contained within the disk.
Over time or as a result of injury, the outer covering of the disk may wear out or become torn. If this happens, the center jelly-like material may bulge out and put pressure on a nearby spinal nerve. The protrusion or rupturing of a disk is often called a "slipped disk." This condition may result in severe pain or even limit motion and your ability to do certain physical activities.
Other common causes of low back pain are:
Various treatments are available for low back pain, including medication, physical therapy, chiropractic treatments, acupuncture, massage therapy, and surgery. However, the best medicine of all is prevention through proper exercise, keeping good posture during working and resting times, and maintaining healthy living habits.

NEW DELHI: BJP is considering including Subramanian Swamy's Janata Dal into the NDA. While a final decision has not been taken yet, party chief Nitin Gadkari is looking at the option seriously and has spoken to senior BJP leaders including L K Advani.
While many senior leaders are not averse to the idea of Swamy joining the NDA, the only hitch is with regard to apprehensions among some party seniors whether Swamy's "maverick" ways will work well for the NDA. Swamy is known for his extreme politics against Congress. He is learnt to be keen to join NDA and has already spoken to Gadkari about it.
According to a senior BJP member, "there were similar objections on re-inducting senior lawyer and former Union minister Ram Jethmalani into the Rajya Sabha on a BJP ticket, as he is also known for his maverick ways and hence does not toe the party line on many occasions. The apprehensions about Swamy are on the same lines, though his is a case of joining the NDA and not BJP".

The family of J.R.R. Tolkien has certainly benefited from his writings. First there was The Hobbit, largely a childrens story, which he actually wrote when his children were youngsters, reading it to them chapter by chapter as he was writing it. Then there was the three-volume Lord of the Rings, which went through many printings and became a cult object for a generation of readers.
After his death, his son, Christopher, got together a number of articles and semi-stories that he had left, and also some things he had culled from the Lord of the Rings in order to keep it from becoming too long.
And this year, the family is publishing Tolkiens translation of the Anglo-Saxon epic Beowulf. Of course, he was a professor of Anglo-Saxon at Oxford, but for some reason, after making his own translation around 1926, he never had it published. It will be interesting to see how it compares with some of the later translations that have appeared in recent years.
Tolkien was steeped in the languages and cultural traditions of Europe. He was also steeped in the language and traditions of his own creation Middle Earth, which reflects European traditions and languages.
Lord of the Rings makes mention of some battles that have taken place, but not in any great detail. He had written about them in more detail but decided such details would make the books too long. Christopher Tolkien found the manuscripts and included them in volumes known as Unfinished Tales and The Book of Lost Tales.
One such elaboration was the fight where Isildur lost his life. Having cut the One Ring from Saurons hand, Isildur leaves the southern kingdom (Gondor) in charge of his nephew and travels north with a small entourage. At the Gladden Fields by the Anduin River, his group is assailed by a large group of orcs. Isildurs sons urge him to escape by putting on the ring, which will make him invisible, and swimming across the river. He does so, but the ring slips off his hand, making him visible, and he is shot and killed by the assailants.
Another battle briefly mentioned in Lord of the Rings is the Battle of the Fords of Isen, where Sarumans forces attack the Rohirrim. There is just a mention that the son and heir of King Theoden has been killed in the battle. The Book of Lost Tales goes into great detail about that fight, showing that the son and heir, Theodred, is a very valiant and inspiring leader, willing to sacrifice himself in order to save other lives.
One thing that has always puzzled me in Lord of the Rings is when Frodo is finally at the lip of the volcano where he is supposed to throw the One Ring into the fire. Instead, he declares that he owns the ring, and puts it on, becoming invisible. The creature Gollum, who has been trying to recover the ring throughout the trilogy, attacks Frodo at the edge of the abyss and eventually bites off Frodos ring finger. Then he is described as triumphantly holding up the ring, with the finger visibly still in it, before tipping too far and falling into the fire.
Ive always wondered why, if the finger was invisible when part of Frodos hand, it didnt stay invisible when it was still in the ring Collum was holding up triumphantly. Ive never seen any explanation anywhere in what Tolkien wrote himself, or what his family has compiled from his writings later.

This book describes a participatory, qualitative study on the work experiences of people with developmental challenges. Twelve individuals who were employed in sheltered workshops, semi- sheltered workshops and community settings participated in the study. A narrative framework guided the data gathering process whereby individuals had the opportunity to share their personal stories as well as reflect on these stories with similar others. Data was analyzed using open coding procedures and findings from participant interviews and focus groups identified three dimensions of employment experiences for people with developmental challenges: empowerment, social and environmental. The components of positive and empowering employment experiences were also identified. An Ecological Model of Employment was then developed to demonstrate the many factors that impact employment experiences. Participatory Action Research Learning was used throughout the study. Participants developed and shared their stories on a video which they presented and discussed with various audiences. Their feedback on this experience is also included in this book.
