Watch your back: the enemy of the sportsman's back is long drives to and from the field

Article Abstract:

Long drives are a cause of back pain in many hunters and fishers. Stretching exercises and good posture can help prevent back spasms, which are usually caused by injuries to the spinal disks. One way to prevent back strain on long drives is to use a back pillow or lumbar support.

The maneaters of the Sundarbans

Article Abstract:

Tigers in the Sundarbans, a swampy area between Bangladesh and India, kill as many as 300 people annually. Those who live in the area, however, show great respect for the tigers. If the tigers were not there, the trees of the area may have been cut and the land washed away.
