GORGONA

GORGONA  PENITENTIARY

For 25 years, the only ones who could enjoy the sight of humpback whales were the prisoners at the Penitentiary of Gorgona that between 1959 and 1982 housed inmates from various parts of the country. Today, visitors can not only enjoy full freedom of humpback whale song but can tour the remains of what was once the country's most secure prison, for having as a sentry watch at sea and the jungle, it was hard to escape there.
A former prison Gorgon, also called the Colombian Alcatraz, inmates were sent Colombia's most dangerous. Usually convicted of murder and rape. When an inmate enters prison, lost their personal identification and in return he was assigned a number to be identified in prison. During their stay, the inmates were in constant abuse by the authorities and by the prisoners themselves. Besides this, they had to live daily with venomous snakes and tropical diseases which often take the lives of many inmates.
The penitentiary was built based on models of the Nazi camps. Inmates slept on beds without the right table to a mattress or pillow. The bathrooms were simply a hole in the floor where the inmates made their physiological needs, and due to constant rape and murder that takes place in them, they had to lower the walls so that the guards could see what was becoming one of the inmates in each bathroom. Punishment cells were rooms that ranged from 80 X 80 cm. to 3 X 3 meters. They were the symbol of total discouragement, because if the prisoners were not killed or died due to illness, dying of loneliness and grief.

It is known that only one person managed to escape from prison. Daniel Camargo Barbosa, known as the Colombian Sadist, managed to leave the island on September 24, 1969 taking advantage of the feast of Our Lady of Mercy, hid in the bushes on the island outwitting the authorities and a small pond built of logs tied together with vines and creepers of the forest, left the island and came a day after the Pacific coast. Although his happiness did not last long as three years later he was recaptured and returned to be sent to the penitentiary, until 1985 when the prison was closed permanently.

The culture is increasingly being developed and yet, the Spanish we care as usual (bad) or even less. We need everyone's support to change it. Spain is and has always been a country in which there are many bad health habits: eating late, sleeping little, and so on. Currently, the Spanish still sleeping less hours than they should, eat poorly and in the worst moment and do very little sport. We have the ideal profile for experiencing conditions of all kinds: physical ailments and psychological fatigue. And it is quite strange that in an era when the cult of the body sends us very few who follow the most appropriate health patterns. It happens that our lives become more sedentary as the years pass. We work all day sitting in front of a computer (most, not all) and when we got home we sat in front of the TV and rest for a while. It would be logical aprovechásemos free time to move, to walk and see things, but we are tired. If we do then we no longer have time for anything. With the number of gyms that is, with increasingly skilled professionals and specialized, not waste the opportunity to get in shape. Physical expenditure of energy that we made there, compensates our mood. People do not believe it, but really one leaves the gym with more strength and energy with which he entered.

Similarly, if we eat so unhealthy, you can visit the consultation of a dietitian or nutritionist to help us, with their advanced knowledge, to develop the exact diet to get to reach our ideal weight, but above all, to get used to eat what is best for our bodies and our health. Many people, especially young people studying these subjects because they consider a safe bet for their future because they feel that this can help others to switch to a healthy lifestyle.

Some of the most common problems of the eye are called refractive errors. These are the problems usually seek eye care professionals in eye exams. Refraction is the change in direction of light rays to focus the light from an image. Refractive errors are problems with how to approach the eye, because of its shape, which makes us to see the blurred image. Some refractive errors are:

    * Astigmatism. Astigmatism is a problem in the curvature of the cornea. This causes part of the picture you get the eye is blurry. The corrective lenses (contact lenses or glasses) usually correct vision in people with astigmatism.
    * Myopia. Myopia occurs when the eye focuses the image of an object in front of the retina rather than directly on it. In most cases, people do not look good from afar but you can see close objects clearly. This condition tends to deteriorate a bit in childhood and adolescence, but stabilizes in adulthood. People with this condition may need glasses or contact lenses to correct vision. Laser surgery is often used in adults to correct nearsightedness permanently by changing the shape of the cornea. Laser surgery is not performed in children and teens because the eye can grow and refractive error, change.
    * Hyperopia. Farsightedness occurs when the image that comes does not focus on the retina, but behind it. This makes it difficult to see close objects clearly, although they do look good distant objects. Glasses or contact lenses can correct this problem in children and adolescents. Most adults develop a form of farsightedness called presbyopia.
Other eye problems that can affect children and adolescents are:
Blindness. Loss of view is useful. Blindness can be temporary or permanent and is due to many causes. Congenital defects or lesions in any part of the eye, optic nerve or brain region responsible for vision can lead to blindness.

Diabetes, the problems of the macula and the changes that occur in the eye due to age are responsible for most cases of blindness in the United States.
Falls. Some children are born with cataracts, a clouding of the eye that prevents a clear view images, or simply to be seen. But cataracts are much more common in older people, who were operated on to remove and correct vision. In infants and toddlers, try the falls to avoiding permanent problems in the development of vision.
Blindness. Color blindness is caused by problems in the pigmentation of the cones of the retina. Most colorblind people see some colors. In most cases, a color blind person confuses some colors with others, usually red and green. Some people are born color-blind and some people develop this condition over time. The most common type of color blindness is an inherited condition that affects more boys than girls. Color blindness can not be corrected.

Eye injuries. Eye injuries are one of the most common preventable causes of blindness. Eye injuries can be caused by irritants such as sand, dirt or foreign bodies in the ocular surface. Chemicals or foreign bodies that are embedded in the eye may also cause pain and vision loss. A violent impact to the eye can cause bleeding inside the eye and damage to the cornea, retina and other important eye structures.

This causes the deterioration of sight over the years. In most cases, no known cause of macular degeneration but tends to run in families, indicating that genes and heredity are involved.
