El Jinete Negro es una de las leyendas más misteriosas de los Llanos Orientales de Colombia. La historia cuenta que, en vida, El Jinete Negro era un hacendado cruel que trataba mal a sus trabajadores y cometía muchas injusticias. Después de morir, su alma quedó condenada a vagar por los campos, montado en un caballo negro y vestido completamente de negro.

Se aparece especialmente en las noches sin luna, cuando el viento sopla fuerte. Los viajeros solitarios pueden escuchar el galope de su caballo, que se acerca rápidamente. Lo más terrorífico de El Jinete Negro es que no muestra su rostro; su sombrero y capa negra lo cubren por completo. A quienes se atreven a mirarlo, les arroja una maldición que los deja enfermos o los hace perderse sin rumbo.

Se dice que el galope de El Jinete Negro es una advertencia para quienes llevan una vida llena de maldad y egoísmo, y que aquellos que lo ven deben rezar inmediatamente para que el jinete no los persiga.

How’s it going?… or sometimes in the US we say… How goes it?  It means the same thing.  How goes it is informal and friendly.

So, what are we talking about today.

Techno, Rock, Hip Hop, Classical – whatever the genre is, we have all been exposed to music in one way or another. According to Nielson’s Music 2014 study, 94% of the American population chose to listen to music for 25 hours per week on average. I have a sound system in my office so that I can blast music during my free time throughout the day but do you know that there are health benefits that come from listening to your favorite songs?

In this episode, I am going to talk about 5 ways that music can mentally affect your health.
So, let’s begin…

From fast-food counters to Michelin-starred restaurants, the hamburger is much loved in the Western diet, but where did it come from?

The Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines a hamburger as both "ground beef" and "a sandwich consisting of a patty of hamburger" on a bun. Although these might be the simplest forms of a hamburger, the sandwich is often eaten with other things added, such as lettuce, cheese, sauces and even other meats.

But this popular food didn't start out with all the extras. In fact, it's thought that one of the earliest forms of the hamburger was closer to a steak tartare — raw minced steak mixed with egg.

While a recipe from the Roman Empire suggests the earliest version of this meal, some believe that it came from Mongolian horsemen, who would place beef under their saddles while riding, so that by the end of the day it was tender enough to eat raw.

However, others say these riders placed meat under their saddles only to help heal their horses' sores, and any meat prepared this way would be too dirty to be edible.

A later version is thought to have come from the German city of Hamburg, where chefs around the 17th or 18th century cooked minced beef with onions and breadcrumbs. This came to be known in English as the "Hamburg steak," and made its way to the US during the 19th century, where it was later called the "hamburger."

Although it isn't known who first thought to put this minced meat on bread, adding a bun made the hamburger popular as a sandwich in the US. The first fast-food hamburger chain — named White Castle — was opened in 1921, and still sells its famous square-shaped hamburgers to this day.

Now, hamburgers can be found worldwide thanks to popular American fast-food restaurants such as McDonald's, Burger King and Wendy's. In 2012, PBS reported that an estimated 50 billion hamburgers are eaten in the US alone every year.
