QUOTES ON STRESS MANAGEMENT - “I love my stress management class.” - Dedrick D. L. Pitter “Most often now you have to call them change management seminars, instead of stress management, ... You have to euphemize [the term] because companies are afraid that by bringing in a stress specialist, the employees will think the company is aware of a problem.” - Tim O'Brien “Meditation is coming into the workplace as stress management. Stress acts directly on productivity. Stressed workers don't function very well. They don't turn up to work on Monday mornings.” - Eric Harrison “The clinics fit consumer's lifestyles, bringing the service to the shopper. Consumers are responding to it well. ... The whole topic of women's health and personal wellness is so focused on stress relief and stress management. What the in-store clinics do is shed one more level of stress.” - Candace Corlett “We do a lot in partnership with the W-2 program, teaching classes that help meet the requirements for some of the W-2 clients. Other classes include time management, stress management, financial education, and anger management.” - Lana Anderson “It improves your heart muscle, it lowers your risk of having a heart attack or stroke, and it improves your circulation. It also helps with your stress management.” - Mary Lyon LOVE QUOTES - “Love is the expression of one's values, the greatest reward you can earn for the moral qualities you have achieved in your character and person, the emotional price paid by one man for the joy he receives from the virtues of another.” - Ayn Rand “Do not think that love in order to be genuine has to be extraordinary. What we need is to love without getting tired. Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies.” - Mother Teresa “Choose your love, Love your choice.” - Thomas S. Monson “I laugh, I love, I hope, I try, I hurt, I need, I fear, I cry. And I know you do the same things too, So we're really not that different, me and you.” - Colin Raye “I do not trust people who don't love themselves and yet tell me, 'I love you.' There is an African saying which is: Be careful when a naked person offers you a shirt.” - Maya Angelou “Women are meant to be loved, not to be understood.” - Oscar Wilde “Any woman can fool a man if she wants to and if he's in love with her.” - Agatha Christie “The true beauty of a woman is her inherent ability to make better a man in every way.” - Don Williams Jr “Remember that all through history the way of truth and love has always won. There have been tyrants and murderers and for a time they seem invincible but in the end, they always fall -- think of it, ALWAYS.” - Mahatma Gandhi “Love is something far more than desire for sexual intercourse; it is the principal means of escape from the loneliness which afflicts most men and women throughout the greater part of their lives.” - Bertrand Russell QUOTES ON TOUGH TIMES - “The way to bliss lies not on beds of down, And he that had no cross deserves no crown” - Francis Quarles “And I'm always surprised at who's there when you fail, ... It's usually not the people you expect to be there. It's easy to have friends when you're winning. And Jerry Maguire was kind of about that. This was about that, but it's like success and failure get trumped by an even bigger issue, which is, 'Are you going to be truly alive, and do you even know what that is?' ” - Cameron Crowe “We've had the ability to go through some tough times. Through those tough times we've learned. You look at the North Dakota State game and those are tough times. ... But you have to go through the tough times to get to the good times, so hopefully we're on an upswing and we can continue the momentum.” - Brian Butch “We had a tough day today. We played a better basketball team. Physically we had a tough time getting around them, a tough time getting to the hoop. We tried. We were courageous. We played hard. Florida was just better today.” - John Pelphrey “Tough times breed tough men and we are taking a tough team to Dublin to play tough rugby. We are going to look squarely in the face of adversity and show a different side to our characters this weekend.” - Scott Johnson “For a coach, this is always a tough time as we realize we are not going to have these guys around much longer. It is also tough for the parents as well. It is just a special time.” - Matt Murray “Claxton's a community that works well together. They pull together, especially in tough times. They celebrate, if there's something to celebrate, the community comes together to celebrate. If we go through a tough time, the community comes together and supports each other.” - Adam Kennedy “There may be some tough times here in America. But this country has gone through tough times before, and we're going to do it again.” - George W. Bush

PLEASE SOMEONE HELP! these SENTENCES LOOK PERFECTLY FINE TO ME!!?
I have to make the subjects and verbs agree but they all look correct to me. (1) Statistics from recent research suggests that humor in the workplace relieves job-related stress. (2) Reduced stress in the workplace in turn reduce illness and absenteeism. (3) It can also ease friction within an employee group, which then work together more productively. (4) Weinstein Associates is a consulting firm that hold workshops designed to make business people laugh. (5) In sessions held by one consultant, each of the participants practice making others laugh. (6) "Isn't there enough laughs within you to spread the wealth?" the consultant asks the students.(7) She quotes Casey Stengal's rule that the best way to keep your management job is to seperate the underlings who hate you from the ones who have not decided how they feel. (8) Such selfdeprecating comments in public is uncommon among business mangers, the consultant says. (9) Each of the managers in a typical firm takes the work much to seriously. (10) The humorous boss often feels like the only one of the managers who have things in mind besides profits. (11) Another consultant from Weinstein associates suggest cultivating office humor with practical jokes and cartoons. (12) When a manager or employee drops a rubber fish in the water cooler or posts cartoon on the bulletin board, office spirit usually picks up. (13) If the job of updating cartoons is entrusted to an employee's concentration often improves. (14) Even the former sourpuss becomes one of those who hides a bad temper. (15) Every one of the consultants caution, however, that humor has no place in lifeaffecting corporate situations such as employee layoffs.

Statistics ....suggest Reduced stress.... Reduces Employee group.... Works A firm...holds Each participant practices Aren't there enough laughs 7 looks OK to me, too... Such comments are uncommon

Nancy asks…
What do you think of the WikiLeaks reveal about the ongoing drug cartel violence south of the border?
According to the diplomatic cables, the Mexican Army is behind the times, it's slow, avoids risks and ignores intelligence offered it by the U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is concerned with how the stress of it all affects Mexican president Calderon's "personality and management style". Pascual says that in meetings, the Mexican president seems "down." Secretary Clinton also wants to know if Calderon's advisors challenge him, asking "Does he like to get into debates with people who disagree with him?" Ambassador Pascual, in a dispatch sent in November of 2009, wrote that "Mexico's use of strategic and tactical intelligence is often fractured, ad hoc, and heavily reliant on the United States for leads and operations." Pascual also complained about turf wars between Mexican security agencies, and that these agencies "would rather hoard intelligence than allow a rival agency to succeed. " Mexico's corruption and low prosecution rate are discussed. That's not exactly a shock. A memo reports that "Calderon has aggressively attacked Mexico's drug-trafficking organizations but has struggled with an unwieldy and uncoordinated interagency and spiraling rates of violence that have made him vulnerable to criticism that his anti-crime strategy has failed." Shortly before the leak release began, Calderon criticized "the spying of the Americans, who have always been very interfering in this sense". On the other hand, the cables reveal that Calderon has urged the U.S. to increase its political engagement with Latin America. Geronimo Gutierrez, Mexico's Undersecretary of the Interior, was a fertile source of quotes. In October of 2009, Gutierrez "expressed a real concern with ‘losing' certain regions" of the country to the drug cartels. Looking at the big picture, the official said that "It is damaging Mexico's international reputation, hurting foreign investment, and leading to a sense of government impotence." And, Gutierrez looked ahead: "If we do not produce a tangible success that is recognizable to the Mexican people, it will be difficult to sustain the confrontation into the next administration." (The official has since resigned). Sometimes a social event like a dinner can be revealing. One dispatch reports a dinner hosted by Mexico's Attorney General for officials from the U.S Justice Department. There, Gutierrez said that the Merida Initiative (the U.S. aid program for Mexico's drug war) was cobbled together too quickly to be effective. http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2010/12/wikileaks_and_the_mexican_drug.html
