		<description><![CDATA[ What is Stress? Stress may be defined as the three-way relationship between demands on people, our feelings about those demands and our ability to cope with them Stress is most likely to occur in situations where: 1 Demands are high 2 The amount of control we have is low 3 There is limited support or help available for us Who is Affected Most by Stress? Virtually all people experience stressful events or situations that overwhelm our natural coping mechanisms And although some people are biologically prone to stress, many outside factors influence susceptibility as well Studies indicate that some people are more vulnerable to the effects of stress than others Older adults; women in general, especially working mothers and pregnant women; less-educated people; divorced or widowed people; people experiencing financial strains such as long-term unemployment; people who are the targets of discrimination; uninsured and underinsured people; and people who simply live in cities all seem to be particularly susceptible to health-related stress problems People who are less emotionally stable or have high anxiety levels tend to experience certain events as more stressful than healthy people do And the lack of an established network of family and friends predisposes us to stress-related health problems such as heart disease and infections Caregivers, children and medical professionals are also frequently found to be at higher risk for stress-related disorders Job-related stress is particularly likely to be chronic because it is such a large part of life Stress reduces a worker's effectiveness by impairing concentration, causing sleeplessness and increasing the risk of illness, back problems, accidents and lost time At its worst extremes, stress that places a burden on our hearts and circulation can often be fatal The Japanese have a word for sudden death due to overwork: karoushi Medical Affects of Chronic Stress The stress response of the body is like an airplane readying for take-off Virtually all systems, such as the heart and blood vessels, the immune system, the lungs, the digestive system, the sensory organs, and the brain are modified to meet the perceived danger A stress-filled life really seems to raise the odds of heart disease and stroke down the road Researchers have found that after middle-age, those who report chronic stress face a somewhat higher risk of fatal or non-fatal heart disease or stroke over the years It is now believed that constant stress takes its toll on our arteries, causing chronically high levels of stress hormones and pushing people to maintain unhealthy habits like smoking Stressed-out men are twice as likely as their peers to die of a stroke There are weaker such findings among women, which is likely due to the fairly low number of heart disease and stroke cases among women, rather than a resistance to the health effects of chronic stress Women seem slightly more susceptible to the effects of stress than men Simply put, too much stress puts you at dire risk for health problems Whether it comes from one event or the buildup of many small events, stress causes major physical alterations that often lead to health problems Here is a list of some of these changes: • Our heart rates increase, to move blood to our muscles and brains • Our blood pressures go up • Our breathing rates increase • Our digestion slows down • Our perspiration increases • We feel a rush of strength at first, but over time stress makes us feel weak These reactions helped our ancestors survive threats by preparing for either "fight or flight" Today, our bodies still react the same way, but the events that cause stress do not require this ancient mechanism Stress can also greatly raise our risk of: • Ulcers and digestive disorders • Headaches • Migraine headaches • Backaches • Depression • Suicide • High blood pressure • Stroke • Heart attack • Alcohol and drug dependencies • Allergies and skin diseases • Cancer • Asthma • Depressed immune system • More colds and infections We have to learn ways to relieve stress, because when it goes on for very long or happens too often, it obviously can cause many serious health problems Resources about Stress Risks The information in this article is originally from: the Somerset Medical Center website, http://wwwsomersetmedicalcentercom ; the University of Maryland Medicine website, http://wwwummedu/patiented ; the March of Dimes website, http://wwwmarchofdimescom ; the voice of doctors website, http://webbmaorguk ; and the Health Ink Online website, http://wwwhealthinkonlinecom ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ The act of taking the first step is what separates the winners from the losers -Brian Tracy Objectives and goal setting and a desire or an intention to meet said goals and objectives is, undoubtedly the most imperative piece of the puzzle when attempting to achieve anything worthwhile in life And as Brian Tracy has outlined here, it is indeed the act of taking the first step and then following through that will separate the winners from the losers Clearly defining what it is that you want is where it all starts and Weight Loss is no different! The potency of your objectives and the power of your intention will totally aid in the clarity and sharpness of outlining your goals So if you truly want to achieve permanent Weight Loss, you must completely see yourself 'lean' or 'lighter' with absolute lucidity! It can happen to you You've heard it before; life is a journey, not a destination Enjoy the trip, but know where you're going, it's easier to get there! Brushing your teeth, washing your hair, 'showing up' at work regularly and sleeping are all habitual rituals, they are daily practices that promote or provide either assurance, insurance, functionality or the opportunity to continue to have or use something that you probably want to keep Stop doing these rituals and decay, breakdown or unemployment occurs, which just causes a downward spiral of unpleasant events Although this sounds a bit funny, the reality is your body functions or DIS-functions in the same way, practice daily effective, proactive rituals and tada you either attain, maintain or achieve the object or objective desired Exercise and nutrition are often perplexing topics, usually shrouded in mystery, but need not be Knowledge and application of knowledge are not the same thing; they are quite separate and distinct Knowing how to do something and doing it is where the line is drawn and having an intention, coupled with an objective acts as the proverbial driver behind the wheeland placing intention into the subconscious mind is like stepping on the gas pedal, which in turn produces action or OBJECTIVE Can you remember when you were young and wanted something so bad that nothing else mattered? ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The University of the West Indies (UWI) has often been viewed as a long-standing partner to Caribbean Governments in fostering integration and development of our people, and forming strategic alliances CARICOM member states are now considering the establishment of a single market economy This will mean the general removal of all legal and administrative restrictions to trade Increased competition among these states is therefore inevitable The ability of member states to survive the effects of trade liberalisation will among other things depend on the capacity of its human resources and its learning institutions The role that UWI is playing in enabling the people and countries of the region to make the transition will therefore come under great scrutiny Many, including graduates of the University, believe that “UWI simply isn’t doing enough!” UWI’s role has been assessed based on changes in its curriculum, the level of intellectual discussion stimulated on the topic among people of the region and the extent to which it has facilitated product development by enhancing the regions access to specialised training and technology transfer A major criticism levelled against the University is that it has failed to employ innovative strategies and radical curriculum engineering in achieving the transformation required to strategically address the challenges facing the region To the question of whether the University has enhanced the intellectual capacity of the people of the region, the answer is an emphatic yes But when asked whether its efforts have equalled those of reputable universities around the world, the response is not equally convincing Caribbean entrepreneurs argue that UWI has not instilled in its graduates, the dramatic changes in attitude and perspectives required to assist the business sector in confronting the challenges of the CSME Amidst a climate of high unemployment among graduates, the view is that UWI is not equipping its graduates to seek opportunities for self-employment Instead, UWI is churning out bookworms that lack entrepreneurial vision! The question has also been asked about whether the University has increased opportunities for regional cooperation in human, economic and social development No doubt, it has played a critical and significant role in integrating the people and countries of the region In fact, it can be argued that UWI has played a pivotal role in advancing the spirit of cooperation and integration that has made the Caribbean single market a reality In comparison to the “much-lauded” CARICOM Federation, the continuing achievements of the University of the West Indies dispel the arguments that the region cannot unite But is UWI doing enough to assist graduates to confront the changes in the international trading environment and the implications for small, open economies like ours? There is only so much that institutions of the region, such as UWI can do The business sector armed with a more educated workforce must now do the rest One thing is certain UWI has over the years engendered a spirit of regional cooperation and Caribbean identity Without a doubt, the University, as a regional institution, has served as a beacon in bringing the people and countries of the region together To suggest otherwise is to be overly critical and to underscore the efforts of the Governments, University Officials and Graduates who have contributed to this process But amidst these efforts, University Officials admit that the numbers of OECS (Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States) registrants continue to decline More and more students of the region are looking towards programmes at foreign universities, albeit self funded and more expensive Why is that? The answer may lie in the fact that the university has itself failed to adapt to the changing climate The present economic climate requires the region’s tertiary learning institutions to swiftly provide a broad base of skilled professionals This, it is believed, will set in motion the potential for the region to compete with the mega trade blocs that have emerged, in recent time This requires that our learning institutions facilitate more wide spread and affordable access to education for the people of the region The Developed Countries have resorted to online distant learning programmes to achieve this objective Admittedly, one of the compelling shortcomings of UWI is that while major universities around the world have successfully established reputable online learning programmes, “UWI is still trying to play catch up” The absence of an effective online learning programme that facilitates widespread and cost effective access to tertiary education, says it all In the context of our geography, it is indicative of the University’s inability to adequately position itself to meet the needs of the people and countries of the region Who is to say that UWI’s strategies and timing are not in keeping with the demonstrated needs of its people? ]]></description>
