OPPURTUNITIES ARISING FROM ECONOMIC DOWNFALL (US jobs that are still up despite the recession)


As economic detriment has changed the way individuals all over the world strive to survive, there are a number of industries in the US that remained high in spirits as they face a lesser possibility of extinction. Some of them even took advantage of this down-pressing situation, as they grab the limelight and start to build trademarks on their own.

To top the list are cyber geeks that are in demand in keeping up with the fast pace of technological change. As internet security is of concern nowadays, technologically-skilled individuals are secured a place in the employed sector, not only in the US but worldwide.

Health demands concerning US citizens attract opportunities for modern Nightingales. Health consciousness remarks a boom in the health care industries. More "ladies with a lamp" are required to sustain the level of care required by Americans. More focus is geared towards domestic childcare services as more women are devoting much of their time imparting their knowledge and sharing their skills as they join the workforce.

Sales and other related occupations are hitting the checklist in this recent situation as well. Cheaper innovations from entrepreneurs are in high demand as they compete with price-rocketing products available in the US market. Inexpensive options are welcomed and are gaining popularity in this period of economic strife.

Recession affecting the US isn't as cruel as we think it is. It still leaves wide open doors for other industries to propagate. Ill-striken by economic crisis, the other side of the coin still provides an array of opportunities for one of the world's leader in economic development. Years after, when economic concerns are stabilized, a dramatic turnaround while drive the gears for US to continue the topping the global economic race.

Circadian Clock

Human sleep-wake cycle is dictated by an inner time-keeping machinery device, of combination of hormonal activities and enzyme action. As achieved by optimal body rest and minimal arousal to stimuli, sleep, a human physiologic need, is recently taken for granted in recent times. For reasons that may include physical activities, emotional instability or hormonal imbalance, sleep deprivation might cause fatigue, confusion, or mental disturbance at extreme cases.

Lack of a considerable amount of sleep makes the brain unsuitable to respond to emotional events resulting from neuronal activity. Furthermore, extended wakefulness periods, also affects growth, as it impairs hypothalamic-pituitary activity. Regeneration of certain parts of the body is achieved by sleep, making the human body achieve more energy and function optimally. With this physiologic need not attained, weakening of immune responses and metabolic failure might lead to death.

Activities of recent existence have made humans work twice as much as they previously do and more often than not, we fail to respond to our bodily call to rest and recuperate. Symptoms might be negligible as the deterioration moves in a rather slower pace, soon enough, the body will demand a repay for the degree of sleep debt one has.

Its about how you write

As a result of a two way circuit--of brain waves and motor responses, your handwriting might be the closest determinant to mirror your personality. As graphologist (experts in handwriting analysis) would comment, there is something "behind the pen" that would radiate in the curves and slope of every single writing! As the brain directs the hand, expression of suppressed issues involving health, mentality and morality is reflected in an individual's penmanship.

PRESSURE--how dark the writing is. Higher level of success is noted for those who write with heavy pressure. They are more founded on emotional experiences from which they draw strengths from. Those who writes on average pressure are regarded to be energetic and are moderately successful in life. Those with light pressure are more superficial and try to gets rid of energy draining situations.

SIZE. Tiny letters are evident for people who are believed to have a lower level of confidence yet has the capability to demonstrate intelligence and wit in certain situations. Confident and easy going individuals usually write in big letters. Narcissistic and loud beings create huge bold strokes.

THE SLANT OF WRITING. A right slant indicates that the individual is highly capable to respond to highly emotional stress, heart rules the mind for most instances in this group of people. Mind over matter goes for those who keeps their strokes in vertical stance. Left slants writers are generally indifferent, and are mostly withdrawn!

The art of penmanship analysis might be a key to decipher the deepest , most concealed type of personality a person has. However, the nature of this detective work entails detailed understanding and mastery as graphologist would note.

Flu Scare

Known previously as "avian flu", the swine influenza virus has draw global attention on a pandemic level. The 2009 outbreak is noted to be caused by influenza A virus subtype H1N1 a newer strain almost identical with swine influenza. This recently-dreaded disease is characterized by episodes of general discomfort, weakness, myalgia and flu-like symptoms chills, fever and headache.

Zoonotic infection is considered to be the primary mode of transmission, that is placing workers and owners of animal industry at greatest risk. Essential public health measure would include vaccination and careful surveillance of newer strains of the virus.

Contrary to popular belief, swine flu can not be distributed through pork products, since the virus itself is not transmitted in an oral-fecal level. More focus is drawn to droplet infection, as virus is spread from humans through coughing or sneezing. Just like any other contagious disease, experts come to a consensus that hand washing is still the best method in breaking the chain of infection. Social distancing could be another method of prevention.

With the occurence of sporadic human infection, health experts all over the globe are taking careful consideration to every H1N1 situation,closely monitoring and preparing for the possibility that the virus may begin to spread more easily and widely.
