stress testIts true. Stress is often thought of in a negative light--and with good reason. However, stress, both physical and emotional, also helps your body stay active and alert, more prepared for obstacles it may face. Two hormones, DHEA and cortisol, are your bodys main forces for coping with stress. The balance of these hormones can affect how you handle the overwhelming feeling that stress can bring.
A stress test, sometimes called a treadmill test or exercise test, helps a doctor find out how well your heart handles work. As your body works harder during the test, it requires more oxygen, so the heart must pump more blood. The test can show if the blood supply is reduced in the arteries that supply the heart. It also helps doctors know the kind and level of exercise appropriate for a patient.
During the test, the electrical activity of the heart is measured while you walk on a treadmill or pedal a stationary bicycle. This measures the hearts reaction to your bodys increased demand for oxygen.

2010-08-29 Stress test success may fire ECB supervision thrust ReutersThe ECB certainly pushed for the stress tests so in that sense they won the hand, especially the one to publish the results which was something the Germans were very anti to," said Credit Suisse economist Christel Aranda-Hassel. The ECBs role in recent European bank stress tests may give it further confidence to flex its muscles within the ESRB. While the tests were run by CEBS, the tiny London-based Committee of European Banking Supervisors set to become the EBA, the ECB provided "substantial behind the scenes help" says Nicolas Veron from the Bruegel think tank in Brussels. By Marc Jones and Huw Jones FRANKFURT/LONDON (Reuters) - The European Central Bank is set to dominate Europes new supervisory superpower, extending its influence into the wider financial system but
2010-08-24 US delays missile-zapping laser test for 4th time ReutersThe goal is to destroy a simulated enemy ballistic missile in flight more than 100 miles away, or about twice the range demonstrated in a maiden test on using a chemical oxygen iodine laser aboard the jumbo jet. The laser heats the boosting ballistic missiles skin, weakening it and causing failure from high-speed flight stress. Boeing, the prime contractor, said in February that the systems initial success, in a test against a short-range missile in its boost phase, had "blazed a path for a new generation of high-energy, ultra-precision weaponry. " Some experts have said it could have potential use against enemy fighter aircraft, cruise missiles or even low-earth orbit satellites. WASHINGTON (Reuters) - An intercept test of a missile-destroying laser aboard a converted Boeing Co 747 aircraft has been postponed for a fourth time because of technical problems, the Pentagons

2010-08-17 Stabroek News - The enigma of global financial markets: Stress testing worked as bank failures intensifyOne of these is to the effect that the test was rigged. It has been labelled a whitewash, cover-up, and PR exercise conducted by the Treasury and the Federal Reserve. Some critics have claimed collusion between the authorities and the banks, criticizing the former for setting low standards and failing to publish concrete metrics on the vulnerabilities of particular banks. In response, the authorities published a 20 page report on the test last April (2009) to support their claim that there was no evidence indicating impending insolvency in any of the 19 banks stress-tested.
