Animal Behavior

I believe that all animals on the planet have intelligences, in the classifications of animals that exists (mammals, birds, fishes, reptiles and amphibians) all have skills that demonstrate according to context and / or environment where they operate.
The tame animals like dogs, cats and birds socialize with humans and we show their emotions through its touch, barking, singing, etc. We can also signs of intelligence by means of skills to figure out situations such as: home building, feed it, get a couple, others can be trained to assist in therapy or memorization to learn routines in everyday life activities of human beings.
According to National Geographic “ Animals are smarter than you think” and show a number of examples where animals exhibit these characteristics of intelligence:
* Magpies in the bush know that other magpies are thieves.
* The sheeps can recognize faces
* Chimpanzees use different tools for digging into termite mounds and even use weapons to hunt small mammals.
* The dolphins can imitate human postures
* The archer fish which stuns the insects with a sudden gush of water.
Charles Darwin tried to explain how human intelligence developed, extended his theory of evolution to the human brain like the rest of our duties, intelligence must have evolved from simpler organisms, since all animals face the same general challenges life.
For some animals can be a nuisance, a pest, but are essential in the development of our lives, can help in our learning, be a relaxation therapy, an example of teamwork, show feelings of support and compassion.

The smoked

I defend that position: not smoking in all publics spaces, because I know its consequences in our bodies.
This global situation is worrying, the statistics tell us that:
Tobacco is one of the social and legal drugs most consumed in the world. In this century could reach dying around 1000 million people, because of addiction to snuff. It is estimated that by 2025, they can be around 1600 smokers in the world.
About half of smokers die from diseases related with tobacco. Many deaths related with snuff, but are not quick death, for example EPOC. Smoking increases the risk of developing several diseases. Many are not fatal, but cause symptoms disagreeable. The snuff is a risk factor for respiratory diseases, cardiovascular diseases, cancers and it is harmful during pregnancy.
Industries added additives to increase their toxicity snuff, some substances are: cadmium (batteries), butane, toluene (industrial solvent), acetic acid, methane, arsenic (poison), carbon monoxide, methanol (rocket fuel).
Based on the evidence currently (background):
1. The highest percentage of consumers of snuff is between 29 and 49 years.
2. The current average age of initiation is centered at 16 years old.
3. By gender exits: 47% male, 11% female, who consumed 14 cigarettes per day.
4. If you are a long-term smoker on average your hopeful life is about 8-12 years less than that a non smoker.
5. With regard to passive smoking: they are in constant contact with smokers and inhale cigarette smoke and they can also get respiratory problems.
This is a situation of health and illness to non smokers, as: They are in constant contact with smokers and inhale cigarette smoke. They can also get respiratory problems.
But as an addiction specialist nurse also I know why it happen this addiction?
 Tobacco: nicotine is the main substance.
 Exits different types of this, for example: cigarettes, cigar, piper, chewy tobacco.
 The nicotine: is a drug that stimulates that brain.
 It has antidepressant effects and symptomatic relief of anxiety.
 The smokers suffer a physical and psychological dependence.
Is a difficult situation for the smokers; however there are some recommendations for both active and passive smokers:
1.Breaking the habits that accompany smoking; for example: to drink coffee
2.Avoid places and situations where are you normally smoked.
3.It someone in your family smokes, ask them not to smoke in your room.
4.Practice some sport.
5.Plan activities during the first weeks to take off your mind of smoking.
6.Buy lot carrots, celery and other healthy foods to chew on instead of smoking.

Overcoming Obstacles

Hellen Keller is one of the most remarkable examples of personal growth to the physical limitations, her will and her desire to achieve more led her to graduate with honor. She established a goal to fight for the rights of the disabled even creating a foundation for the prevention of blindness.
In the 33 years of my life I have known people who despite their physical disabilities, mental and emotional have taught me that if you work with love, faith and hope can overcome obstacles to achieve goals successfully.
A close example is my young sister, she has faced death several times, but the hardest stage was when her 8 years she performed a surgery had an allergic reaction to anesthesia, which caused respiratory layoff that it complicated by cerebral edema, she lasted a week with memory loss failing to recognize mom and downgraded its intellectual capacity of second grade to kindergarten.
Despite these circumstances began to progress in their handwriting and improve their intellectual abilities, her qualities of persistence, will power and courage helped her to go beyond this condition; obviously had important resources such as belief in God, the continued support of the family and the unconditional support of her second grade teacher.
Thanks to God and her perseverance overcame her second degree. Today she is a teacher with a major in computer science and she is super creative and smart to develop their lessons, she likes to work with children with some disabilities.
In summary, when you want you can, if you do you do with.

The Social Network

In this time, the technology is a way of life and communication around the world.
According to wikipedia the social network: social structure composed of groups of people; which are connected by one o more types of relationships, such as: friendship, kinship, common interests or shared knowledge.
The Social Network is a way of life style for many and how to interact with other.
Some advantages are:
1. You can meet people from around the world.
2. You can make friends.
3. You could find a partner.
4. You can connect with people who do not have see long.
5. You can generate income.
But this tool can create disadvantage for some users,such as:
1. Anyone can violate your privacy
2. Anyone can make comments about situations and activities in a negative way.
3. Someone could steal your internet identity (the famous hackers).
There are different types of social networks, some of the best known are:
 Facebook
 GoogleBuzz
 Twitter
 My space
 Sonico.com
 Hi 5

The movie the Social Network focuses on how this phenomenon (Facebook) changed the world. But also shows how the friendship deteriorates due to the acquisition of power and it shows that the good are not so good and the bad are not so bad.
The technological change can bring positive development of our lives, but we must be careful not to become an obsession.

Lessons learned from the Innovaion Week

January 26, 2011


Dear Sir / Madam,

The content of cultural activity “The brain learns”, which was presented by the master Silvia Castro is important in the current education system.
Each of us, as student can develop skills and abilities in many areas: linguistic, musical, mathematical, scientific, bio mechanics, etc., but in some cases makes it easier to learn some areas tan others.
I have implemented the following rules of the features mentioned in the talk, from I am school:
1. Motivate me to what I learn, everything has an application and is required for general education.
2. I reflect on what I do and I say, for to improve and to correct.
3. I try to practice what you should practice. The brain is a muscle that must be exercised, to be more effective.
4. I learn from others, be they younger than me, other professions, other ideologies or other points of view.
I am glad to hear that some of my techniques are well applied by me, and develop other skills for to improve my learning.
I will be hopped Ulacit organize more activities like this, to encourage us as professionals, and be of better quality students with skills necessary for the present time.
I dismiss thanking this learning.

Sincerely,


Licda. Lezahairam Thomas Cornejo
