With the plethora of iPhone apps I've showed you, some of my favorites are the ones that involve the (new and improved) camera. Although I've already shown you PanoLab, which allows you to insert photos from your library into a panoramic shot, but this app helps you take seamless panoramic pics on the go.
Simply called Pano, the app guides you in taking up to 16 photos for your panoramic pic, giving you guidelines and tips on how to line up your shots, then works magic with it's blending and color-matching algorithms to make your photos picture perfect — like you used a DSLR instead of your three-megapixel camera.

Kyphoplasty, a surgical technique used to treat spinal fractures, does not improve a person's back pain or quality of life, according to a review published in 2006 by a nonprofit health services research agency. Kyphoplasty should only be done if bed rest, medicines, and physical therapy do not relieve back pain.
