What is stress?

Stress is simply a fact of nature -- forces from the inside or outside world affecting the individual. The individual responds to stress in ways that affect the individual as well as their environment. Because of the overabundance of stress in our modern lives, we usually think of stress as a negative experience, but from a biological point of view, stress can be a neutral, negative, or positive experience.
In general, stress is related to both external and internal factors. External factors include the physical environment, including your job, your relationships with others, your home, and all the situations, challenges, difficulties, and expectations you're confronted with on a daily basis. Internal factors determine your body's ability to respond to, and deal with, the external stress-inducing factors. Internal factors which influence your ability to handle stress include your nutritional status, overall health and fitness  levels, emotional well-being, and the amount of sleep and rest you get.

Teen stress

As one example of stress related to a life transition, the teen years often bring about an increase in perceived stress as young adults learn to cope with increasing demands and pressures. Studies have shown that excessive stress during the teen years can have a negative impact upon both physical and mental health later in life. For example, teen stress is a risk factor for the development of depression, a serious condition that carries an increased risk of suicide.


Opinion about stress
In my oppinion stress is something horrible that we all have experimented, because is natural. But is more common now a days because of the society, school, family, relationships, etc...
We must know how the get rid of stress because it can make our lives too complicated or you can also die.
We should have a balance in our lives with our family, friends, school, work, etc..
you can also have a hobby so you can get distracted and relaxed.

THE PERFECT COURTSHIP

Adriana Macias

Adriana is the lecturer, she speaked about this topic for one hour at UNIVA´s SUM.
One thing that represents her is that she is handiccaped, she doesn´t have arms, she does everything with her legs.

The conference was about more than one topic; it started with esteem because if you want to have a couple or share your life with someone elese firstly you have to accept yourself.
Then she talked about different tipes of retaionships:
The controlling relationship-  One partner plays a dominant role in the romance, while the other partner just follows the rules.
Toxic relationships- Toxic relationships are relationships that seem pleasant from the outside, but for some unexplainable reason, they suck the life and happiness out of you.
The complicated relationship. Complicated relationships are the trickiest kind of relationships.
The emotional relationship. This is the kind of secret affair you have with someone other than your own partner. You may not realize you’re falling for this person, but you’d be completely addicted to them in reality.
The abusive relationship. This is the kind of relationship where one partner holds the reins and controls the other partner, either verbally or physically.
ETC...
She also talked about bulimia and anemia.



And suicides of famous people, referring to people that were talented, famos, beautiful but they were not happy.


MY OPINION
I think it wasn´t a good conference because it was a topic that too common, we also thought that it was going to be better but she started talking about esteem, bulimia, her problems and how she got over it, we didn´t care about that, it also were too much time and it cost 70$ so we expected something better.

MEXICO´S CABINET

Luis Videgaray, Mr Peña’s closest advisor, will go to the Hacienda, as Mexico’s finance ministry is known.

Miguel Ángehong, a former governor of Hidalgo state, will be the secretario de gobernación, a role normally translated as "intel Osorio Crior minister" but which comes with more power than that title might suggest.


 Another key figure in security will be General Salvador Cienfuegos, who will lead the defence ministry.


The economics ministry will be headed by Ildefonso Guajardo, an economist with a career including a stint at the IMF as well as assorted roles in government.



Pedro Joaquín Coldwell, the party president, will become energy secretary, leaving a vacancy at the head of the PRI. Mr Coldwell became governor of Quintana Roo at the age of 30, before serving as the tourism secretary of Carlos Salinas.

 Crucial in that task will be Emilio Lozoya, the son of a secretary of energy under the Salinas government, who will become head of Pemex, the state-run oil and gas monopoly.

 Head of CFE, the state electricity-company, will be Francisco Rojas, who was head of Pemex under Mr Salinas.

One surprise was the appointment of José Antonio Meade as foreign secretary. Mr Meade, who is finance secretary of the outgoing government of the National Action Party (PAN), is a Yale-trained economist who had been tipped to stay in the cabinet despite the handover from the PAN to the PRI.

 Rosario Robles as secretary of social development. Ms Robles is a former head of the Party of the Democratic Revolution, the left-wing rival of the PRI whose candidate came second in this year’s presidential election. 

The job of attorney general will go to Jesús Murillo Karam, another former governor of Hidalgo who later served as public-security secretary in the cabinet of Ernesto Zedillo (president between 1994 and 2000).




Gerardo Ruiz, who was part of Mr Peña’s administration during the latter’s governorship of Mexico state, will become the secretary of communications and transport, a tough job that will require him to deal with Mexico’s powerful phone and television giants. 

Emilio Chuayffet, a former secretario de gobernaciónunder Mr Zedillo, will become education secretary

. The president’s chief of staff will be Aurelio Nuño, who helped to coordinate the PRI’s landslide victory in Mexico state’s gubernatorial race in 2011.




MY OPINION
You can change everything in the world and the corrution in Mexico will be the same; no matter if you change the cabinet they will allways steal money and they will allways say that everything is going to be better but is not they are liars. 
And they will steal forever until the end of the world......We all hate these people but they just get richer so is not fear, also is not like if they are honest or good Mexico is going to change, the change is in all of us so we must be good persons.
