Children and teenagers do not like to share time with their family, it is very common that they prefer to spend their time on web sites. They avoid to talk too much about themselves in front of their relatives. It is very frequent that they create a false identity to be accepted by other people. The technology is a good tool for learn, but many children used these tools only for play online or simply waste time. The parents have to limit the time on internet, as well block bad pages, since the problem is not the time in front of the screen, the problem is how they use the time on internet, beyond that the children should do different activities like learn to play an instrument, learn a language, read and create stories, use kind of apps like cernland, machinarium, mini mundi, thingdom, or something. That is why the accompaniment and communication of parents is a good tool to find a solution and prevent more cases against children. Therefore, educate is to show, to teach, to instruct, to prepare, it is not to hide or prohibit. A good education generates trust and respect, remember every 3 of 5 children have an alternate social network without parental consent. ii

Since 1920 the Jazz was listened, and it was there in the most important cities in E.U, such as New York, New Orleans, and so on. However, But the most important aspect is its instruments and the beginnings because it started when the black people were excluded from society and they tried to make their own history in the music, and in all history different genres have been created to improve musical diversity.

The jazz was born at the end of XIX century in United States and it has been until today one of the most important genres in the world. It has a lot of instruments to create Jazz, such as saxophone, Piano, Trumpet, Drum and Bass, and others. In New Orleans the people were doing jazz music to confront

the European music, and it was the main city in America since 1912 to creating Jazz.

To start talking about Jazz genres and its derivatives you should talk about the main, since jazz started numerous genres it was created and different instruments were used to create those melodies. The first was jazz traditional which was based of classical music. After that was created fusion jazz in 1960 and the fusion jazz is when jazz music is mixed with another genre, like Asian music, pop music, Arabian music and stuff. Finally the Jazz blues was important to Jazz because it is more sophisticated and its instruments are different from the other genres specially the bass.

Obviously Jazz is and extensive topic to explain, but it can be done talking about some main singers in history such as Frank Sinatra, he was born in 1915, and he was an American Singer, and began singing professionally as a teenager, and his most representative song was â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fly me to the moonâ&#x20AC;?,

In conclusion the Jazz was created to make the people black independent in terms of identity, and to represent their culture and diversity in their customs, but we must keep in mind the jazz is not Heard as before and we have been losing this important piece of culture in the world.

What is the problem?

At present, the health sector has great potential to develop technological applications and services that improve the medical service. According to the above in this article, we indicate the importance of using an ambulance application to facilitate the work when transporting a patient because currently the patient's registration is done by writing on papers with many pages preventing it from being more effective. In addition, this application would store on a website the information sent from the mobile device about the patient with the GPS position record of the emergency and also the hospital where the patient was treated.

Details about the application After an investigation, it was found that ambulance attendants spend a lot of time filling the different data on the paper sheets when transporting a patient, for this reason we think of a technological solution where the paper is replaced by a mobile application that allows registering in a more efficient way the information with the GPS position allowing to take control of the services performed by the paramedic digitally improving the services to the patients and helping the doctors in turn. For example, when you have a traffic accident and the paramedics of the ambulance are taking your data with your symptoms, at that time the application is useful because with your card number you can know basic data of a patient and the basic symptoms with just pass the mobile device over the patient.

Name of the application

 “Assist" refers to the person who assists the patient.  “Bulence" refers to the vehicle that the patient is being transported in.

No doubt, the application will be very easy to install and use, you can download only the application of the store for the Android operating system "PLAY STORE", this application is called "assistbulence" its name is composed of two main elements, the first "assist" refers to the person who assists the patient and the second element "bulence" refers to the vehicle that the patient is being transported in. When the patient arrives at the medical institution, the doctor can know everything about the patient just by accessing the website related to the mobile application, it is important to mention that the mobile application will verify internally that the ambulance attendant corresponds to the ambulance and that it is active to access the different options that this application offers. To send the GPS position with the data, you must enter with your username and password in the application to activate the GPS of the mobile device automatically. The android version of the mobile device should be between 3.0 and 6.0 for it to work well. The cost of this application will be economical because the service will be paid monthly, very similar to paying an internet plan for the house. In the future, you will be able to see other ambulances, medical centers nearby with this application and it will be known which emergency is around to improve the service. The delivery of patients to the medical center will be done with a digital signature to contribute with the environment without using paper. In addition, you as a user, can request the ambulance service using the mobile application and on the screen of the mobile device the user can see how long it takes for the ambulance to arrive and where it is located. In the future, we want this system to be used throughout the health system, with the application "assistbulence" running the ambulance company can monitor the daily operation of the vehicles and patients that are transported improving the logistics to reduce costs and reprocessing. On the whole, the ambulance application will be a useful tool for the health system can be adapted to any context. Written by: Diego Fernando Guarin

INFLUENCE OF MUSIC ON HUMAN BEHAVIOR It is possible that people underestimate the ability of music to influence society; This article tackles the subject from the social, psychological point of view: relating to the mind and behavior of people; and anthropological: study of human reality. Music is an artistic manifestation, a cultural product that expresses feelings, situations, thoughts or ideas. The impact that music has on society, in general, must be approached from different point of view: anthropological, psychological and sociological, in order to explain how music influences human behavior. Sound and music have always been linked to the communication of the human being; therefore, also linked to emotions. Emotions are responsible for converting the sounds we perceive into something understandable, we associate sounds with experiences. Music is present in many of our important memories and the sound-emotion association makes people understand the situations in which they are, allowing them to react according to the context. By having a special connection with emotions, music stimulates decisions and willness, the order of people’s behavior. Every people is free to govern their actions, to decide freely and to choose a certain type of behavior; however, this power of decision is based on conscience and emotions, which are manipulated by music and people around the individual. Everyone lets himself to be conquered by that music that fits with his personality, feeding his desires and motivations, finally convincing the individual to take actions. Every action that people take begins as a thought, in the conscience there is a battle between goodness and evilness; music is important at an early age, where, it could determine the idea of good and evil, leaving the values in the individual. Values have different interpretations and developing ways according to the cultural and religious context in which everyone lives. Based on the above, music cannot pass over people´s will forcing them to do any action, but music is related to the way people think: Tell me what you hear and I will tell you how you think, tell me how you think and I will say who you are. Anthropology does not want to explain what music is; it specifically focuses on explaining what function and what use it has for humans. Music has a social function in the conformation of identities through the symbolic use of it; for example, in nationalist practices. Every urban tribe or ideological movement is established based on certain characteristics: aesthetics, some ethical principles, and the music that define their culture. Music does not explain our way of being, but it is used to make people feel identified with certain attitudes in front of some life’s aspects, however, there is not a strong link between that identification and people actions; for example, the rough aesthetic and violence that surrounds heavy metal does not always correspond to heavy metal followers’ personality, many of them are kind. When the individual identifies himself with some culture, he imitates the behavior patterns of the group to which he wants to belong by adopting the main way of relating to them: the language. Musical language stimulates the integration, and it is important for the processes of socialization and let people develop creativity and sensitivity through the senses, transmitting feelings. Music as an artistic language allows learning, expressing and communicating several people’s inner world aspects and the reality they live. Many songs are part of our daily life, music permeates everything in societies, accompanying every situation in a person's life, like in the office, the school, the restaurant, the shops, the cinema, among other examples; music has a key effect to perceive what a brand, image or person wants to transmit to us, just as movies use music to create a suspense, humor or tragedy environment.

Society generates music as its cultural product, that product modifies society itself because it groups society in different ways. Music contributes to cultureâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s continuity and stability, music as a culture, establishes some common links that attract our attention. It is known that young people build their identity with costumes, hairstyles, language, as well as the appropriation of certain emblematic objects; in this case, musical assets as a cultural emblem, in accordance with the way they understand and live. Cultural consumption identifies a group of people and links them, establishing patterns of behavior, codes, forms of learning, even, modifying their language. Music is able to alter our emotions and create social bonds; when people listen to music, mirror neurons are activated, these are in charge of imitation and empathy, reflecting the actions and intentions of others as if they were their own; in this way, people can feel the pain of others, their joy, their sadness, it mean, it allows us to share feelings. When a thought or feeling is frequent and constant, it ends up becoming an action that develops what you thought and felt, for that reason music has reached a level of mass and propagation greater than any other cultural expression, which allows it to be a means of propagating ideas and ideologies that give meaning to the current social world. Music has an informative function because it is used as a propagandistic medium, transmitter of ideas, as well as the narrative capacity found in some lyrics that allow the knowledge of different realities through the exposition of facts and anecdotes. The social meaning that music has for people is evident, beyond lucrative ends, music is a human creation. People determined the meaning of music for themselves, but it seems that now is music who determines the meaning for people.

BEHIND THE MASK For many years, Slipknot has been accused of Satanism, but it is not true, this speculation has been created for their appearance and maybe for the screams in the songs, there are three facts you should know before you say they are satanic: the masks meaning, the meaning of the songs, and the life of Corey Taylor

The masks are used in order hide their roots because they came from a village where everyone is very religious, but actually, everybody knows where are they from. The second reason is that they think that the people cannot show their real personality so the masks can show what is inside of each one and also they use them because the masks will never get old, so for these reasons each one made his own mask with his own emotions.

Most of Slipknotâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s songs are heavy with a thick voice and strong rhythm, but people just see this, they accused them for the screams and the heavy songs, but they do not care about the real meaning of the

songs. All these songs are about: Hatred, madness, take the impossible and make it real loving disappointment, it is something crude but honest, it is something real, and these emotions in songs save Coreyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life.

Corey had difficult childhood, he started to use drugs at twelve years old, for this reason no one in his family wanted to help him so his grandma took care of him, he joined the band in 1997 but he got into depression and tried to commit suicide but his wife stopped him, after this he began to reflect on his mistakes and all the people that he hurt and so a new Corey Taylor was born, saved by music and his passion. You cannot always judge a book by its cover, before you judge be sure that you have information and arguments, and do not forget to watch behind the mask to see what is inside.

One of the most powerful genres in the world: Heavy Metal There are three important characteristics of the heavy metal. Do you want to know why Heavy Metal has been the most listened genre through years? And what are the musical and cultural roots of heavy metal? Do not worry about thinking that, in the next part you will find some answers. In 1960s United Kingdom was an important period where politician, economic and social facts allowed that few bands created a new but powerful sound showing to different social classes the young’s disagreement and their hate of this experiments exist many other forms of rock and roll but heavy metal reflected the mood of disenfranchised youth on the margin of society. This genre grew so fast and it was considered a form of protest music. There are several reasons why this genre will surprise you once you listen to it. First of all, we going to talk about its roots and influence, they took place in the United kingdom where its powerful sound and dramatically performance becomes heavy metal in an attractive lifestyle, and the next years North America youth adopted its principal fundaments created a different sound with the same destructive reason “the protest” and is the only genre responsible for causing feelings of anger depression, happiness or isolation from

there the style evolved and branched into many different genres and subgenres. Heavy metal remains a vital force in music today, with sellout concert tours and CDs selling impressive numbers of copies without any radios airplay or MTV exposure. For this and other reasons this genre dominated this world one time. At the beginning, there was just traditional heavy metal. Shortly after it evolved and splintered into many different styles and subgenres. As time has gone on, there are literally hundreds of subgenres, but these are some of the main genres of heavy metal with a little description piece. Black metal: characterized by high pitched raspy vocals and pagan/satanic lyrical imagery. Nu-metal: combining heavy metal riff with hip hop influences and rapped lyrics this genre became very popular in the late 90’s through the early 2000’s. Trash metal: This genre became heavier and more extreme. It’s characterized by fast guitar and double bass drum wit aggressive but understandable vocals. Some of the most popular bands in metal started as thrash bands, although most evolved as they went along. How you can see the heavy metal is not only a genre is a cultural legacy not like reggaetón (fake style music) to this point we talked about history roots and style, but we need to talk about their apostles, these bands that brought the glory. Black sabbath, Led Zeppelin and Metallica, these bands changed the shape how we see, listen and enjoy the music. Lyrics that show us their feelings, lives and thoughts, is a highway to another world a different place and you’ll never be regret for knowing them. In conclusion do not worry thinking if only exist these three sub genres, I have good news for you exit a lot of different styles that you can listen and discover in different moments an remember is only music.

INDIE MUSIC There are three reasons why Indie Music is the new trend in Colombia. Music opens borders, unites countries, people, preferences and fashions.

So, it started in Europe and it was extended over the world. Secondly, indie music is characterized because a lot of people promote their music by themselves. They are recognize as independents because they create their music without depending on trends. They boost attitude “Do it yourself”. Even though their record labels are not from Sony, neither Warner or Universal, they take advantage of social media in order to save the costs and it allows fans to have a closer approach to them, consequently they act like "the millennials". Last of all, in Colombia there are many bands of this music, however two of them represent the majority of their main characteristics: Monsieur Periné and Puerto Candelaria. Monsieur Periné for it is part, began with a group of youngersters singing in parties, birthdays and weddings. They started to combine different styles of music, inspired in their

great idols and after that they took a lot of strength. In 2012 with their album "Hecho a mano", they share "Suin Romanticon" one of their best successes. On the other hand, Puerto Candelaria is a great band, they have their own web page, their group started in Medellin in 2000, they combined styles such as guasca, porro, vallenato and chucu-chucu and Colombian jazz, characteristics own of Indie Music.

THE COMMITMENT AND IMPORTANCE OF THE CHILDREN This article is about drugs in schools, along ranges of victims also talk about the influence of social strata on kind drugs the children use. Then, this article is written with reference to the research about consumption found in the current problematic schools in the Colombian society of the ICBF, the investigation talks about the kinds of drugs that students usually consume and finally found the conclusions written solutions are given by the writer. Director of the ONG â&#x20AC;&#x153;amigos unidosâ&#x20AC;? did research about drug distribution at schools. Because the children do not mind trying the psychoactive substances in these places, also it says that the victims are between 12 and 14 years old. However, the problem distribution drugs at the schools of Colombia is along the history, were brought many problems to the society, but at present it has not been considered a solution adequate to end this problem. On the other hand, the 20% parents do not know with who they relate children. Besides, the principal problem of distribution of drugs into the schools are the same students themselves who distribute the drugs and these students are more influenced by criminals (Drug Dealer) who encourage them to sell in exchange for money. Also, the consumption of drugs changes according to the needs of the students, it also changes according to the social strata, the children of strata 4, 5 consume normally cocaine, heroin and the social strata 1,2,3 consume marijuana, boxer, bazuco among others, but addition, study of ICBF show that marijuana is the most illegal drug consumed by 2% of students (Richard- LuisanaSergio (2008). But the general problem of all the students is alcohol, it is a toxic element for the young body. According to the research of the center of medicine, alcohol is also a psychoactive

substance

for

young

people.

Students usually take and mix it with different kinds of alcohol to prove the experience, as they are under age they have bad reactions in the body since these kind of psychoactive substances the body is not able to assimilate.

On the other hand, according to the Director of the ONG, the conductive follow up that the school does in relation to this problem is to apply school rules. But looking at from the perspective of a student, the rules of the schools are very superficial to solve this social problem, then taking into account that many educational institutions do not pay enough attention and choose to follow the police codes, but these do not help the solution since with children they have laxity with law. However, it should still be noted that it is important to increase the commitment of all to the protection of children by putting in practice pedagogy.

Although, it is important to increase the commitment to the protection of children by putting into practice a solution to prevent this problem is unfortunately to the adolescent students and their parents if have been suspicions and that prove that their son is using drugs it needs looking for a solution in the school or psychological help. It is important of adult must play an important role in the development and growing up of children because they are not in greater security.
