Is Anger Now a Medical Issue?
A November 2007 article states that road rage could be caused by Intermittent Explosive Disorder, making severe anger a medical condition. In this article, I openly and candidly respond to this notion of categorizing a human emotion (and the choices people make because of it) a medical anomaly - one that could be treated with medication, rather than careful examination of one's feelings and choices.

9.0 Conclusions: Entrepreneurship and Small Business Enterprise Growth in Uganda
As the world turns global, many countries are emerging out of the abject poverty into wealth. South Korea and Singapore are classical examples. In the 1960's, South Korea's per capital GDP was similar to that of Uganda. South Korea is now among the developed countries. Uganda is still characterised by massive poverty. The only way to transform Uganda and many African countries is to fuel growth through business development. Given the global competition, Africa may not be able to position herself competitively as a world class competition but must foster the growth of businesses through micro and small enterprises. Many donor funding agencies have identified this and have focused their attention to this sector.
Micro-finance Policy and Development Framework: Malawi
In Malawi poverty is more persistent in the rural areas at about 65.3% of the population. The recent poverty profile (National Economic Council, 2000) suggests that these poor are characterised by malnutrition, lack of income earning opportunities, and unfavourable production environment. Female-headed households, which are estimated to be about 35% nationally, are consistently poorer than male-headed households, and are mainly engaged in subsistence farming and petty trading activities.
4.2.1 The gendered nature of poverty
Over two thirds of those living in absolute poverty are women (UNDP, 1998). As noted earlier, women are very heavily concentrated in the most marginal survival enterprises (often working at home) and in wage employment in secondary labour markets that are characterised by low skills and high turnover. In Sub-Saharan Africa, they also undertake the bulk of agricultural production. The 'training crisis' is, therefore, overwhelmingly linked to the economic and social vulnerability of women and particularly the multiple constraints that prevent them from exploiting training opportunities.
Who cares about PR?
The public relations industry is coming of age in a global economy where it is ideally placed to take advantage. Maybe we should look at what the PR industry offers, rather than how the industry has been characterised. Here are five key messages to consider.
