Comfortable footwear is always vitally important


A poll conducted by Gallup and Healthways(a disease management company)charted levels of stress in 2008

-Stress shot up over 2008, peaking in the fall and winter as the economic crisis deepened, then continuing high through February. The 10 least happy days of 2008 all were in the last quarter.
-Emotional well-being overall dropped, too, driven largely by declines in mental health for the poorest people.
-Americans' moods were ultra-sensitive to economic news. Well-being plunged on days when the Dow lost big and with reports of high jobless claims.

This has raised two important and slightly troubling points for investigation at a later date .

-First find out specifically what it is that a disease management company does.

-Second,research what metrics are used to measure the 10 least happy days of a given year.
