My Journey
By: Jean Paul Betancourt

I hope you think I’m sane,
When I tell you where I’m going,
I have no map; no guidelines,
As I write this little poem,
But through my clumsy ways,
I am hardworking and persistent,
And I hope that one day,
You’ll think I’m of great wisdom,
But only through me succeeding,
Will you ever think of that,
So now I must get ready,
So my journey will soon start.

Nacianceno Betancourt: Oración Al Justo Juez

Oración Al Justo Juez Enseñanza familiar de mi Abuelito Nacianceno Betancourt Bendito y alabado sea la hora en que mi señor justo juez murió y resucitó subió a los cielos mi buen Jesús. Ten misericordia de mi príncipe de los príncipes, rey de los reyes. Con el agua bendita fue bautizado con el manto de Abraham y la espada de San Juan sea mi cuerpo defendido de todos mis enemigos. Ahí vienen mis enemigos déjalos venir que ligados vienen de pies y manos si ojos traen no me vean, si boca traen no me hablen, si pies traen no me sigan. Que no sea preso ni herido ni encarcelado por la justicia. Con migo sigan la virgen María y el arcángel San Gabriel y el señor de la verdad. Hostia consagrada que alzaron en el día de hoy en todos los altares, hay vienen mis enemigos déjalos venir pacientes como el corazón de Cristo en su pasión. A los que veo contactalos con el Padre, con el hijo, y con el espíritu Santo. En el Huerto de cireos estaba San Juan con Dominus deus y le dice al Justo Juez que por...

History of Bogotá, D.C., Colombia

History of Bogotá, D.C., Colombia The first settlers of Bogotá were the Muiscas, belonging to the Chibcha linguistic family. At the arrival of the conquerors, it is estimated that there were half a million indigenous people of this group. They occupied the highlands and temperate slopes between the Sumapaz massif in the southwest and the Nevado del Cocuy in the northeast, in an area of ​​about 25,000 km2 that encompasses the high plateau of Bogotá, part of the current department of Boyacá and a small region of Santander. In this area, the population was organized into two federations, each under the command of a chief: the southwestern area was dominated by Zipa, whose center was in Bacatá, present-day Bogotá. The northeastern zone constituted the domain of Zaque, whose center was the Hunza region, present-day Tunja. However, the Muisca population, unlike the Tairona, did not develop large cities. The Muiscas, eminently farmers, formed a dispersed population that occupied numerous smal...

Andrology

The term Andrology is derived from the Greek word, Andros which means male. It is a branch of medical science that deals with problems related to men's reproductive system and urological problems that are unique to men. It is the counterpart to gynecology, which deals with medical issues which are specific to female health, especially reproductive and urologic health. Andrology covers anomalies in the connective tissues pertaining to the genitalia, as well as changes in the volume of cells, such as in genital hypertrophy or macrogenitosomia. From reproductive and urologic viewpoints, male-specific medical and surgical procedures include vasectomy, vasovasostomy (one of the vasectomy reversal procedures), orchiopexy and circumcision as well as intervention to deal with various male genitourinary disorders. Unlike gynecology, which has a plethora of medical board certification programs worldwide, andrology has none. Andrology has only been studied as a distinct specialty since the la...
