Health / How Anger Affects Your Health And Mind by Darmielojuh(m): 2:43pm On Jan 08, 2014 |
Anger is a powerful emotion. If it isn’t handled appropriately, it may have destructive results for both you and your loved ones. Uncontrolled anger can lead to arguments, physical fights, physical abuse, assault and self-harm. On the other hand, well-managed anger can be a useful emotion that motivates you to make positive changes. The physical effects Anger triggers the body’s ‘fight or flight’ response. Other emotions that trigger this response include fear, excitement and anxiety. The adrenal glands flood the body with stress hormones, such as adrenaline and cortisol. The brain shunts blood away from the gut and towards the muscles, in preparation for physical exertion. Heart rate, blood pressure and respiration increase, the body temperature rises and the skin perspires. The mind is sharpened and focused. Health problems The constant flood of stress chemicals and associated metabolic changes that accompany recurrent unmanaged anger can eventually cause harm to many different systems of the body. Some of the short and long-term health problems that have been linked to unmanaged anger include: Headache Digestion problems, such as abdominal pain Insomnia Increased anxiety Depression High blood pressure Skin problems, such as eczema Heart attack Stroke. Fight, Flight…or Die? When anger kicks in, your body readies itself to respond to a perceived threat. Your muscles tense… your digestive processes stop…and certain brain centers start firing in ways that alter your brain chemistry. These functions reflect our genetically coded response to danger. Unfortunately, nowadays, these strong chemical reactions are inappropriately triggered by minor annoyances—like getting cut off in traffic or being spoken to unkindly. For modern humans, even thinking about a stressful situation can spark a full- blown “fight-or-flight” response. In fight-or-flight, your body’s resources mobilize for immediate physical action. Any bodily function not directly related to fighting or fleeing is put on hold, including: • Digestion • Assimilation • Cell production • Body maintenance • Circulation (except to the skeletal muscles involved in the fight-or-flight process) • Healing • Immunological defenses Long-Term Consequences from a Moment of Fury The health consequences of continual fight-or-flight response can be severe. According to Dr. Mercola, a highly regarded and widely published natural health practitioner, our automatic anger response leads to health problems like: Headaches Digestive imbalances Insomnia Anxiety Depression High blood pressure Skin problems, including eczema Heart attack Stroke Is Your Anger Putting You At Risk for Heart Problems? Your heart is especially vulnerable to the deadly effects of anger and its consequences. Researchers at Washington State University conducted a study with participants 50 and older. Those with explosive tempers were significantly more likely to have arterial calcium deposits—a primary indicator of heart attack risk —than those who didn’t. Study author Bruce Wright, M.D., says lashing out in anger can make stress hormones surge and injure blood vessel linings. But repressing anger is also dangerous. In fact, Dr. Johan Denollet of the Tilburg University in the Netherlands headed a study of heart disease patients last year—and found that holding in your anger triples your risk of heart attack! Unhelpful ways to deal with anger Many people express their anger in inappropriate and harmful ways, including: Anger explosions – some people have very little control over their anger and tend to explode in rages. Raging anger may lead to physical abuse or violence. A person who doesn’t control their temper can isolate themselves from family and friends. Some people who fly into rages have low self- esteem, and use their anger as a way to manipulate others and feel powerful. Anger repression – some people consider that anger is an inappropriate or ‘bad’ emotion, and choose to suppress it. However, bottled anger often turns into depression and anxiety. Some people vent their bottled anger at innocent parties, such as children or pets. Expressing anger in healthy ways Suggestions on how to express your anger in healthy ways include: If you feel out of control, walk away from the situation temporarily, until you cool down. Recognise and accept the emotion as normal and part of life. Try to pinpoint the exact reasons why you feel angry. Once you have identified the problem, consider coming up with different strategies on how to remedy the situation. Do something physical, such as going for a run or playing sport. Suggestions for long-term anger management The way you typically express anger may take some time to modify. Suggestions include: Keep a diary of your anger outbursts, to try and understand how and why you get mad. Consider assertiveness training, or learning about techniques of conflict resolution. Learn relaxation techniques, such as meditation or yoga. See a counsellor or psychologist if you still feel angry about events that occurred in your past. Take regular exercise. The benefits of regular exercise in mood management People who are stressed are more likely to experience anger. Numerous worldwide studies have documented that regular exercise can improve mood and reduce stress levels. The effect may be twofold: physical exertion burns up stress chemicals, and it also boosts production of mood- regulating neurotransmitters in the brain, including endorphins and catecholamines. Teaching children how to express anger Expressing anger appropriately is a learned behaviour. Suggestions on helping your child to deal with strong feelings include: Lead by example. Let them know that anger is natural and should be expressed. Treat your child’s feelings with respect. Teach practical problem-solving skills. Encourage open and honest communication in the home. Allow them to express their anger in appropriate ways. Explain the difference between aggression and anger. Punish aggression or violence, but not appropriately expressed anger. Teach your child different ways of calming and soothing themselves. Where to get help Your doctor Counsellor Things to remember The long-term physical effects of uncontrolled anger include increased anxiety, high blood pressure and headache. Anger is a positive and useful emotion, if it is expressed appropriately. Long-term strategies for anger management include regular physical exercise, learning relaxation techniques and counseling. |
Sports / Glo Caf Award : Mikel,toure Or Drogba by Darmielojuh(m): 2:16am On Jan 08, 2014 |
With 24 hours to the next Glo CAf Awards, football analysts have been making different permutations with clear-cut justifications on who deserves to wear the crown of African Player of the Year for 2013. Majority of the opinions however favour Nigerian International and Chelsea Midfielder, John Mikel Obi to win the Award. The top three nominees for the 2013 Glo CAF Footballer of the year Award was announced last week by Africa’s highest football authority, the Confederation of African Football (CAF). The top three lists released includes Nigeria’s Mikel Obi, Cote D’Ivoire’s Yaya Toure and his country mate, Didier Drogba of Galasaray. Drogba plies his trade with Turkish Club, Galatasaray while, Toure, the defending champion plays for Manchester City. Mikel Obi is a regular feature for Chelsea FC of London. According to Mohammed Aderibigbe of Precise Sports, Mikel Obi holds the ace having won the African Cup of Nations with the Super Eagles and Europa Cup with Chlesea FC of London. The same view was corroborated by Sam Smith of Sports Degrees who opined that Mikel deserves the Award due to his exploits with Chelsea FC and the Super Eagles, adding that if Mikel succeeds, Nigeria will be returning to the list of countries producing Glo Caf Award winners since 1999 when Kanu Nwankwo won the Award. Chris Abraham, a sports pundit however differs in opinion. He is tipping Yahaya Toure for the Award. According to him “Yaya will nick it again, he is the leading contender and the fact that he recently won the BBC African Player of the Year makes him a clear favourite”. However Sports 24, an on-line Sports Outfit also tipped Mikel Obi outrightly. “ The award goes to Mikel, a regular in Chelsea line up, European? Champions League winner, Europa Cup winner and African Cup of Nations Champion, what else? ” Who wears the crown? All roads lead to the Convention Centre, Eko Hotel and Suites, Lagos on 9th January, 2014 where the king will be crowned....who is your man? |

Politics / Angry Reactions Trail Clark's Letter To OBJ by Darmielojuh(m): 2:02am On Jan 08, 2014 |
The open letter of Elderstates man and Ijaw leader, Chief Edwin Kiagbodo Clark, to former President Olusegun Obasanjo, yesterday, opened a can of worms in the polity. Eminent Nigerians who reacted to the 10- page letter expressed mixed feelings. While some welcomed the letter others said it was not necessary. There were also those who berated Obasanjo for opening the flood gates of exchange of letters, which they argued portended grave danger for the polity. In the letter, Clark lampooned Obasanjo over his 18-page letter to President Goodluck Jonathan where he accused the president of being clannish, lying over his re-election ambition, training snipers and listing 1,000 political opponents to be dealt with. Countering, Clark called Obasanjo a liar, hypocrite, unrepentant trouble maker, saying that the Jonathan Administration was not pro-Ijaw. Call Clark to order – Junaid Mohammed Northern political commentator, Dr. Junaid Mohammed, yesterday, asked President Goocluck Jonathan to call Ijaw leader, Chief Edwin Clark to order before he plunges the nation into chaos with incendiary language. Mohammed, who was reacting to the open letter addressed to Obasanjo by Clark, noted with dismay the attempt by Clark to usurp the power of the presidency and act as if he was Nigeria’s President. According to the Second Republic federal lawmaker, Clark has no locus standi whatsoever to write the letter to Obasanjo since the former head of state did not address his letter to him. “Obasanjo raised relevant national issues in his letter to Jonathan and did not send it to Clark or made reference to the Ijaw leader. If I may ask, on what basis did Clark write to Obasanjo? “I find it extremely irresponsible and unbecoming of the likes of Clark to take it upon themselves to insult international leaders like Obasanjo for offering some pieces of advice that Jonathan should have taken quietly with humility and thanked the former president for his admonition,” Mohammed said, adding, “the letter written by Clark to Obasanjo exposes the weakness of President Jonathan’s Presidency and calls to question whether the president or proxies are in charge of the administration.” Clark has right to defend Ijaw — Ezeife Third Republic Governor of Anambra State, Dr. Chukwuemeka Ezeife said: ‘’Anyone who writes should be very sure of what he writes on national issues. It should involve going down memory lane to bring out relevant facts. That is what I think Edwin Clark has done. As a leader of the Ijaw people, he has no choice than to speak out when the Ijaws were mentioned in a manner that he did not find comfortable. He is only trying to put out the fire, since Obasanjo accused the President of being held hostage by his people. It is not good for us to be allowing anybody to be throwing darts at the nation. Such an act reduces the presidency. Not replying Obasanjo will mean an insult to President Jonathan. It’s time to unmask Obasanjo — Afenifere Also commenting on the letter, Afenifere’s Spokesman, Mr Yinka Odumakin, commended Clark for writing the letter and blamed Obasanjo for the unending saga of open letters.. He said: “Obasanjo opened the flood gate of letter writing and he should know that he is not the only one who has a pen in Nigeria. Others who are knowledgeable about the affairs of Nigeria like him are definitely going to comment. I have read through the letter by Chief E.K Clark and I think he has served Obasanjo good measures. I think the time has come for Obasanjo to be unravelled and for him to know who he really is. I give kudos to Clark for that wonderful letter.” Clark’s letter is welcome –Falae Former Finance Minister and presidential candidate, Chief Olu Falae said: “This is a democracy. If anything is topical, everybody should be free to comment on it. There should be no hide and seek about such matters. If it is topical and I feel like commenting, I should be free to comment. Comments are free, only facts are sacred.” OBJ provoked the Ijaws – Yakassai Elder Statesman and founding member of the Arewa Consultative Forum, ACF, Alhaji Tanko Yakassi said that former President Obasanjo should be blamed because he started the open letters that seems to be heating up the polity. Arguing that Obasanjo provoked the Ijaw people in his letter to Jonathan, he said the former president should have sought audience with the President instead of resorting to writing an open letter. He advised Obasanjo to defend himself on the allegations against him in Chief Clark’s letter, saying: “I think it is expected because of the way General Obasanjo provoked all the Ijaws in writing his letter to the President. I think every Ijaw man is entitled to feel offended. It is none of their business but they were provoked. The contents are natural, allegations have been made, I think it is up to General Obasanjo to confirm or to deny. The responsibility for the heating up of the polity is that of Obasanjo, he should have sought to meet with the President instead of the open letter.” A terrible wind is blowing – Ikokwu Second Republic politician and one of the founding members of the Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP), Chief Guy Ikokwu, concurred that Obasanjo should not have written an open letter to President Jonathan because he also had his shortcomings. His words: “Obasanjo was living in a glass house. The proverb says he who lives in a glass house should not throw stones. But Obasanjo has been throwing stones right from the civil war till date and it has become habitual. If you throw stones at people who live in the same house with you, they will find a way to retaliate. So, it is not surprising that his daughter, Iyabo Obasanjo reacted and now Clark is reacting. “Obasanjo is having serious problems answering or rebutting the issues that have come up from these letters. A terrible wind is blowing and where and how it will end is not certain. Altogether, Obasanjo has ruled the country for about 12 years. He should have used the opportunity to transform Nigeria but he failed.” It’s time to halt the letters – Uwazurike President of Aka-Ikenga, an Igbo intellectual think tank group called for stoppage of the exchange of open letters to enable President Jonathan concentrate on governance. His words: “Chief Clark’s letter is one in a set of letters. Many of us were not happy with Chief Obasanjo’s open letter because it was bound to open floodgate of letter exchanges, which will not be about the nation but individuals. Clark and Obasanjo were ministers under General Yakubu Gowon. They are not strangers to themselves so Clark has the right to write Obasanjo. However, these letter writings should stop; let us allow the president to lead the country.” Obasanjo is a confusionist — Arunsi Asked his view on Clark’s letter, Hon. Arua Arunsi, (PDP, Ohafia/ Arochukwu Federal Constituency, Abia), said: “I don’t agree that Obasanjo is a trouble maker but I can say he is a confusionist. He wants to bring confusion to this country by writing such letter to the present Head of State. When he was there, nobody wrote him that kind of letter but he keeps writing to others. To me, he is a confusionist. And as a statesman, that is not good for him. When I made my reactions last time, I said that Obasanjo told lies because you cannot talk about the economy being in shambles when this economy is growing at seven percent while his grew at three percent. So, in this case, that was a lie. That wasn’t the truth. So, if Edwin Clark calls him a liar, well, to some extent, that may be correct. Yes, I may not see him as a trouble maker, but as a confusionist. He wants to bring confusion to the governance of this nation. Ordinarily, what he wrote as an open letter could have been an advice even personally.” Clark is not helping Jonathan – Mbadiwe However, Hon. Eddy Mbadiwe, (APC, Ideato North and South Federal Constituency, Imo State), said Chief Clark was not helping President Jonathan with his defence.. “ My reaction is that Chief Edwin Clark is not helping the President at all. I think he should keep silent and let time heal the wounds. I am not sure that making all these comments will help the matter in any way.” |
Celebrities / Akpos Open Letter To Maheeda by Darmielojuh(m): 11:26pm On Jan 07, 2014 |
Dear Maheeda, I am quite sure that you will find this piece of write-up not appealing but the fact is just that you need to re-check yourself and also re-structure your life. I am not preaching the gospel to you, neither am I seeking public attention. I read one of your recent interview with one of Africa biggest Newspaper where you said that you are proud of your n##de pictures. You also talked about your background which I found so rough and am very sorry for that. Nobody would have prayed for such background and I really appreciate your courage and struggle girl (Thumbs UP). But all the same Maheeda, Ramsey Noah slept under Lagos Bridge without food. He struggled without exposing his butt or circulating his n##de pics and now he is one of the biggest Actors we see on screen in Africa. Did you know that Mercy Johnson once lived in an uncompleted building as a young girl with a lot of dreams? She struggled and went through a lot of tribulations but now she is also one of the biggest Actress in Africa. *You don’t have to pose n##de before you become great or before you actualize your dreams. Upcoming Acts take note of that. STOP presenting yourself has a born again Christian. Chai! Satan Punish Devil. My dear you are very much far from it. I wonder if you know the meaning of been a born again. It about having total submission to God. Been spiritually and morally okay which I don’t think you are.I can’t still believed that you were once a gospel singer. It is never to late for you to change your heart and your ways. You claimed that your mum and husband supports you. Who cares if they support you or not ? What matters most is for you to get back to your senses. Funny enough I can’t m–a–s–t– u–r–b–a–t–e to your n##de pictures not to talk of deriving pleasure from staring at it. You want attention, you are an attention seeker. That’s cool but get your attention using another means. You put n##de pics because you claimed that you are into what you call ‘showbiz’ but I call it ‘showkey’. Be Wise Sister Maheeda. Enough Of The Dirty Yansh Wey We Dey See. A Word Is Enough For The Wise. People Are Watching You. Be A Good Role Model.
