The Spine health – Part 3
Maintaining the curve of Cervical Vertebrae (neck region)
There are 7 vertebrae in the cervical region (neck). The curvature of the neck region is backwards; however, most modern day tasks involve extensive stooping or bending in the forward direction. Sitting in front of desktop PC, operating your mobile device, working in the kitchen, writing some thesis, reading a book etc. makes you bend your neck forward . This creates degenerative diseases like cervical pain and Spondylitis (inflammation of the vertebra). Both are highly painful conditions and result in loss of balance and sudden black out of the vision. Constant heaviness in head and mild pain are initial symptoms of these diseases.
Yoga comes to rescue with all the back bending postures and twisting postures. The simplest exercise that you can do in the morning is to stand straight. Just bend your head and shoulders backwards and keep staring at the sky for 2-3 minutes. Asanas like Bhujangasana, Ardha Matsyendrasana and Matsyasana (in the picture) keeps cervical region healthy and maintains the natural curvature of this region. Tadasana helps in elongation of complete spine.
All you need to do is to be regular in your practice. Your suggestions and inputs are welcome.

Anonymous Cell Phone Data Easily Identifiable
Turns out that with just a few data points from a location-tracking cellphone, most people are easily identified most people, a new study found. Just four random points are enough to put names to 95 percent of the anonymized users in a cellphone database.
The study was published in the journal Scientific Reports and looked at 15 months’ worth of location data from 1.5 million cellphone users in a “small European country.” The data was similar to what is shared from Apple and Android, with a location tagged from phones and their closest cellphone tower once an hour.
The team figured out the math to identify 95 percent of the phone-users from just four randomly selected data points. Given 11 data points, they could identify all of the users.
Once you have location data, it’s easy to figure out a lot of private information — where people live, if they attend certain religious or political meetings, visits an HIV/AIDS or reproductive clinic, or hangs out with an ex or a business rival.
Makes you think twice about sharing location data with your apps, doesn’t it?
