The TriPad (set of three) is a tripod microphone stand isolator designed to reduce disruptive resonance and noise from the studio floor, stage or drum riser from entering the microphone and contaminating the recording.
When recording, capturing the true essence of the instrument is achieved by placing the microphone far enough away so that the instrument as a whole along with the direct sound field will be take in. As you move the mic away from the source, the sensitivity of the microphone is increased and background noise invariably gains prominence.
Noise, like sound is a vibration. Common sources are street traffic, foot steps, heat and air conditioning systems, and other instruments. These are transmitted through the air and by vibrating through solids such as the floor and a microphone stand. The TriPad eliminates floor-borne vibrations by introducing a 'spring-like' isolation pad that essentially floats the microphone stand and decouples it from the floor.
The design is undeniably simple, yet incredibly effective. It begins with high density open-cell acoustic foam that has been modified for greater firmness to better stabilize the mic stand. It is then cut into a simple disc shape, drilled at a precise angle to match the industry standard K&M 201 tripod stand and then cut again to provide an access slot for quick mounting. Once in place the TriPad stays attached onto the mic stand making it easy to pick up and relocate. The benefits are immediately obvious: you get more of the instrument less background noise. This in turn means you can achieve desirable results without having to introduce radical equalization curves as a means to correct embedded problems.
The Primacoustic TriPad is a modestly priced yet highly effective tripod mic stand isolator that will quietly go about improving the sound of your recording every day! Comes shipped in a set of three units in a handy storage tube.

Essential Information You Need to Know Before Chartering a Couch
Many people enjoy traveling to new destinations. Traveling can become so much interesting in a case where people travel as a group. While traveling is fun, it can be challenging especially in a case where one gets the mode wrong. Some may book carpools while others may even book plane tickets for their team. However, the most probable occurrences in such cases are lateness or even many cases of lost luggage. A group trip would not be as fun traveling in any non-chartered means. Chartering a bus tend to be one of the best ways of traveling as a group. Chartering a coach can be the best idea of a group trip especially in a case where you charter the right bus. The best thing about chartering a motor coach is that you tend to use the route you prefer.
Motor coaches are quite cozy in that both their interior and exterior exhibits a luxurious and comfortable experience. You may consider going for a coach with large windows to make your traveling more fun. You may need to consider using natural light during the day and also have a micro nightlife in the bus. Most of the motor coaches will also have the logo of their company on the sides making it be easily identified.
Traveling also tend to be more comfortable with recliner seats. You would need to be comfortable by checking whether the coach comes with comfortable seats. You would also need to get the right capacity for your group. Charter buses range between capacities of 36-60. A 36 passenger coach is a good idea for example for slightly above thirty people.
When traveling individuals carry with them different sorts of luggage. The bays ensure that the passengers on board do not get tired of any luggage they carry. You would not need to miss the lavatories availed to you in some coaches. They also have air conditioning systems that allows proper distribution of heat at all times of travel either during the night or during the day. Some of the coaches also tend to come with WI-FI connectivity. Some coaches also tend to allow you to charge your devices allowing you to listen to music, take photos and keep chatting with your friends and relatives.
All motorcoaches have professional drivers who are hired by the motor coach company. The best coaches also have a long term experience in their job that is they have been operational for a long duration. You would need to enjoy a bus with amenities that makes your travel comfortable and luxurious. You may also need to check coach charters with the best prices.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Kids are beginning to return to school in East Tennessee. It doesn't matter whether they're learning from home or going back into the classroom — they'll need to adjust to a new sleep schedule and wake up earlier for class.
"It takes the body a long time to adjust to a change in sleep schedule," Dr. Nicole Lopez said, a doctor with East Tennessee Children's Hospital. "For some kids who have had some chaotic routines in summer, or over the last 6 months, it's going to take a lot longer to get back into a normal routine."
She said that if kids need to get up at 6 a.m. for school, they may need to go to bed as early as 8 p.m. to quickly adjust to the new sleep schedule and get enough rest. However, she also said that the time kids need to go to sleep can vary between ages.
Younger children may need more rest compared to older teens.
Lopez recommended families start a bedtime routine that starts after dinner. She said families should do the same thing every night after supper, to start signaling that it's bedtime as kids adjust to the new schedule.
"If kids have a routine every single day, including the weekends, it'll be a lot easier for them to be prepared for bedtime," Lopez said.
She also said that all electronic devices should be away from everyone, including children, for at least 1 hour before bed. That way, people's minds will be more relaxed and less stimulated before bed, making it easier to rest.

Whether or not your program is hybrid, lock-step, open entry/open exit, chances are you're using Canvas to deliver student experience and content, and to help keep track of grades. To maintain a level of quality, we have a course evaluation that can help you to improve your course. The dimensions in this evaluation include six main points, explained below.
View the course evaluation checklist
Learner Support and Preparation
Not every student will automatically understand how to use Canvas or how to succeed in your course. Have you made it very clear where to find the syllabus? How to get help if they need it? Is there a tutorial or quiz about how to use Canvas? This information should be easy to access within Canvas, not just in your classroom written on a whiteboard.
Research into blended and online learning has shown that course organization can help students focus on what matters most in your course: LEARNING! Is your course organized in such a way that students can easily access what they need? Are pages and content streamlined and visually clear?
Program Objectives and Outcomes
Your program objectives should not only be outlined in the syllabus but also be connected to assignments, quizzes and tests. If an assignment does not correlate with a program outcome or objective, it may be time to revise the assignment or more clearly state the expected learning outcomes of your program
Instructional Materials
Is your Canvas course a good access point for course materials? Have you made it easy for students to understand? Do your links to outside resources work? Instructional materials in Canvas are helpful because students can access them 24/7 from a mobile device. Make sure that students can trust and easily navigate through it.
How do you assess student learning? Chances are, you do a little bit of traditional testing, but mostly competency-based assessments that are in-person. Perhaps you have some group projects that mimic real-life workforce situations? Make sure you have a variety of assessment tools and measures that will really prepare your students for what they'll encounter in the workforce. They need to gain the knowledge, and then be tested on proper application of that knowledge in a variety of contexts. Be clear about how you assess students by using rubrics.
Learner Interaction & Engagement
It's good to shake things up. If your students are using Canvas regularly to do assignments, design occasional assignments that allow them to interact with peers. It can be in an online discussion, a peer-review assignment, anything that helps them engage with more than just you as the instructor.
While we cannot anticipate every learner's needs ahead of time, we can design our use of Canvas to make it user friendly for students who are using mobile devices at home, for those who need screen readers, and to enhance text by including instructive images. Closed captioning on video files is another good practice for educational videos, should you choose to create them.

When it stops happening the next morning men will scramble to get it back, wondering what they were saying or what they do, looking for the whats casual sex is Duguayville NB together with of the places they are least likely to find it. Now we are aware of the process we can create this superhighway we come into contact. The more people react to us since we can, more automatic and the stronger this neural pathway becomes, and the faster your old ruts vanish as the pathways that fed them shrink. You best gbt dating apps Duguayville New Brunswick still have points on your life in which you fall to them, this is natural, however the more you build up this new pathway the easier it is to stay on track and be" on" all the time.
Do man success with online dating Duguayville? Learn exactly how to develop something. Fix your vehicle yourself. There are a million YouTube video clips that will actually instruct you anything you would like to online dating gif woman. You have no fucking reason. Find out some shit. The next time something breaks repair it on your own. You wish to alter something in your home? Learn exactly how to do it on your own. Most jobs really aren't that tough you just think they are due to the fact that no one taught you exactly how to do them. Instruct your fucking self. It's really not that tough as well as every little thing gets much better with practice. You will discover as you go however you need to be a male that can get things done. And also let obtaining shit done be among your passions. You should have a couple of enthusiasms truthfully. The more the far better. The more understanding the backpage escorts points you can supply and also the even more things you can do the much better. Deal with the mindset that you are purpose driven and established to take care of whatever life throws at you.
You have profiles that appealed to you, both from potential dates along with the" contest" The benefit of the" competition" profiles is that it may Duguayville New Brunswick ebony backpage escorts you some fantastic ideas of how to state something on your own.
Whileyou're still more likely to enjoy a great interaction than not if you say" hi" regardless of how long you wait ahead, each moment you hesitate makes it more probable you'll never get the opportunity to shine. On Thursday, my weekend clinic's first night, I expect hesitation. By Saturday night I anticipate it to be overcome. It'll still pop up from time to time, however the more rapidly it is conquered by you, the easier it becomes to do this and the less frequently it seems in each part of your life.
Care to take a guess? If you guessed that she desired me to plow her enjoy the property of an Alabama sharecropper, congrats! You were totally right! I never actually met up with her, since she did not take kindly to the fact that I blew off her twice. I had been out with another girl and then the next time Iwas'occupied'didn't feel like that. Anyways, this is a excellent example about how things really work of dating under the surface level to make a few points.
However, there's no violence in China simply escorts backpage that will rob you Duguayville New Brunswick to a race( like Black and Celtic crossing prostitutes problems in the USA) . You complete your tenure, belong to some other race come to China can be from any country and return to your country. You are not bothered by anybody here. It is possible to live a life that is great. You'll be safe in China. China is a country and I love being here.
We mentioned previously, but it's well worth another mention, do not use any portion of your name or other actual contact information in profile or your username in usernames or at specially- taken- out dating Duguayville addresses.
I stood in a station waiting for a backpage escorts Kelowna. In a scenario like this, Obviously, there are people which make up the scene. In the conclusion of Duguayville NB pics of actual prostitutes of the programs, there sat a lady on her suitcase and the sense of calm that she seemed to exude set her. Her dress looked elegant. Her own hair was beautifully wild and even though it was a hot afternoon, she seemed so comfy.
I try to be as fair as I can be about the way I look, Because a culture is of catfishing and fake profiles online. I am not here to lie or direct a guy on, simply to look completely different if and when we meet. I try not to over filer my photographs and I try to keep them up to date. I generally try to get a recent full body picture just to demonstrate my body form.
When speaking to girls attempt to find a way to use these lines" you have to take me out for a drink" or" Whoa, we only just met" . Do whatever you can to make it seem like she needs you. Flip the script so that you may become the object of desire.
In case you establish a telephone number that was dating- only? Are you concerned about giving out your phone number? Would you feel safer if you had a mobile phone number dedicated to your online project that is dating? Since it will imply additional expense and additional 14, not everybody will want to take this measure. There are two approaches you can use to create a telephone number that you may cancel at any moment ifyou're worried about this, although I had a problem and never utilized my mobile phone.
Think about how do you feel if a man told you of his problems. It's way too emotionally overwhelming. And it's a turn off. A date is just a meet and greet to determine if you'd like to get to know each other better. The information a man can handle in the cycle is different than what he needs to know on a first date or desires.
What should you expect from a Church girl? She was angry and moody, so GMC discovered it, but she kept responding with a couple of words. As a GMC, he wants to switch the chat to either something funny, naughty, or something dear to her. Since she talked about paperwork while they had been talking on the telephone, he used it as a step- on- chain to get her to talk more as he probes her.
Here when it comes to dating, women tend to get a raw deal. Yes, they receive a whole lot of focus, but that focus they actually desire. It's backpage escorts for a female to be getting email after email from those who have not read her profile and who just think of her as a set of tits and a vagina to do for their pleasure. Having comedian online dating bear Duguayville New Brunswick say" I understand you are most likely not likely to write back if I wrote to you so please do the hard work for me" Is adding insult to injury.

Paraguay and Brazil
Sunday 19th August
We take the bus to Ciudad del Este, Paraguay. The bus stops at Argentine Immigration to get an exit stamp and then goes straight through Brazil without stopping eventually stopping at the shopping centre in Paraguay, which means we have to walk back to Immigration to get our entry stamps.
We leave at 9.50 am and arrive at 11am local time ( 1 hour change) all for 10 pesos. En route we cross the Friendship Bridge and Fraternity Bridge. We stop at Tourist information who suggest a hotel. When we arrive it is very basic and unclean, but when we ask to change rooms we are upgraded to a cleaner room, a 4 bed dorm with private bathroom.
We have a typical lunch at a local restaurant and then make our way to Itaipu Damn on a local bus.
Itaipu Damn
The total length of the dam is 7235 m. The crest elevation is 225 m. Itaipu is actually four dams joined together— from the far left, an earth fill dam, a rock fill dam, a concrete buttress main dam, and a concrete wing dam to the right.
The spillway has a length of 483 m.
The maximum flow of Itaipu's fourteen segmented spillways is 62.2 thousand cubic metres per second, into three skislope formed canals. It is equivalent to 40 times the average flow of the nearby natural Iguaçu Falls.
The flow of two generators (700m3·s−1 each) is roughly equivalent to the average flow of the Iguaçu Falls (1500m3·s−1).
If Brazil were to use Thermal Power Generation to produce the electric power of Itaipu, 434,000 barrels (69,000m3) of petroleum would have to be burned every day.
The dam is 196 metres high, equivalent to a 65-story building.[13]
Though it is the seventh largest reservoir in size in Brazil, the Itaipu's reservoir has the best relation between electricity production and flooded area.
The course of the seventh biggest river in the world was shifted, as were 50 million tons of earth and rock.
The amount of concrete used to build the Itaipu Power Plant would be enough to build 210 football stadiums the size of the Estádio do Maracanã.
The iron and steel used would allow for the construction of 380 Eiffel Towers.
The volume of excavation of earth and rock in Itaipu is 8.5 times greater than that of the Channel Tunnel and the volume of concrete is 15 times greater.
Around forty thousand people worked in the construction.[citation needed]
Itaipu is one of the most expensive objects ever built.
When construction of the dam began, approximately 10,000 families living beside the Paraná River were displaced.
The world's largest waterfall by volume, the Guaíra Falls were drowned by the newly formed Itaipu reservoir. The Brazilian government liquidated the Guaíra Falls National Park, and dynamited the submerged rock face where the falls had been, facilitating safer navigation, but eliminating the possibility of restoring the falls in the future. A few months before the reservoir was filled, 80 people died when an overcrowded bridge overlooking the falls collapsed, as tourists sought a last glimpse of the falls.
An important diplomatic settlement was reached with the signing of the Acordo Tripartite by Brazil, Paraguay and Argentina, on October 19, 1979. This agreement established the allowed river levels and how much they could change as a result of the various hydroelectrical undertakings in the watershed that was shared by the three countries. At that time, the three countries were ruled by military dictatorships. Argentina was concerned that, in the event of a conflict, Brazil could open the floodgates, raising the water level in the Río de la Plata and consequently flood the capital city of Buenos Aires.
Itaipu produces 80% of Paraguay's electricity and 20% of Brazil's.
Monday 20th August
Today is shopping heaven, Cuidad de Este is the world's fourth largest tax haven and can't you tell.
Commercially speaking, the main attraction is Ciudad Del Este in Paraguay. To give an idea of its importance it may be enough to say that it is the largest shopping center in South America. In the past annual sales reached upwards of USD $12 billion. The stores in Ciudad del Este sell an endless variety of products imported from the biggest and most advanced industrial centers in the world. There, the tourist can find simple utensils to state-of-the-art computers. The shopper can find quality products made with the most advanced technology, at very attractive prices, as well as many counterfeit items.
I am not sure how the shops all make money though as they all sell the same goods. Hannah and Mark are interested in a new laptop and the prices are very competitive and much cheaper than back in the UK, the difficulty is they don't come with guarantee paperwork etc.
We walk round several shopping centres, packed with hundreds of outlets and all that can be heard is the noise of brown tape being torn from cardboard boxes as electrical items are unpacked, it is quite deafening in some cases.
We cross the border into Brazil at 5.30pm a taxi takes us all the way across and waits for us to get through immigration for a set fee. Although he does get lost finding the hotel and stops for directions unfortunately in Portuguese which he does not fully understand. When we arrive we are at the sister hostal, luckily the manager is there and he offers to take us the other hostal. It is fairly basic, but does have a swimming pool. We also have two ensuite rooms as well. We eat at the local supermarket as they have all you can eat buffet dinner, very good food and excellent value for money.
Tuesday 21st August
Iguaçu is a major city in the state of Paraná, Brazil. It is a gateway to both Paraguay and Argentina, and home of the famous Iguaçu Falls. Together with the cities of Ciudad del Este (Paraguay) and Puerto Iguazu (Argentina), it forms part of one the largest cultural tourism poles in South America.
Today we visit the Brazilian side of Iguazo falls. We catch the bus from the bus station a 10 minute walk from the hostal, this takes about 45minutes and is the same bus that will take us to the airport tomorrow. When we reach the entrance to the falls we have to catch another bus that takes 15minutes to get to the actual falls. The falls are very picturesque from this side and you can seethe whole of the waterfalls not just bits of them. It is amazing the amount of water that flows and the mist that is always present. Mother nature is very impressive.
After lunch Mark and I complete a canopy tour, very similar to Go Ape except at the end there is a 30ft telegraph pole that you have to climb and then throw yourself off to try and catch a high wire swing. The climb is very high and as you near the top there is nothing to hang onto. I manage to sit on the top and just launch myself off, Mark on the other hand manages to catch the swing. Great fun and a challenge for me because of the heights and trusting the wires etc.
We eat again at the all you can eat buffet, everything else is really expensive. Brazil in general seems to be much more expensive.
Wednesday 22nd August
Fly from Iguazu to Rio today. Very good flight, very small airport and flight on time I had a window seat and the flight into Rio was very interesting. We arrive in Rio at 11.30am and get to the apartment at 12.30. It is a block back from Copacabana Beach, it has two double rooms, large bathroom with power shower, all very clean and modern, but needing a little TLC to keep on top of it's initial appearance. Although the apartment is on the fourth floor the traffic noise is very loud, there is no double glazing and below us is a 3 lane and bus lane one way street which is busy 24 hours a day. The agent who meets us there was originally from Leicester, he is very chatty and gives us the low down on the city and tips on places to eat etc. There is a lift in the apartment block, which is quite antiquated, with a sliding door. Andy and Mark have fun racing the lift up the stairs, Mark cheating by pressing the lift button for each floor making it stop.
We will be here for the next 8 days and I am very much looking forward to some sunshine and beach time.
We check out the neighbourhood, find our local supermarket and stock up on groceries. We then walk along the beach to Ipanena to watch the sunset, very beautiful and another one of those pinch me moments.
We cooked pasta for tea and settled down to watch a film on TV. It is great to relax and know we don't have to pack and be on our way in a couple of days.
Thursday 23rd August
Once the capital of Brazil, Rio de Janeiro (River of January) situated itself along he Atlantic coast in the south eastern region. This urban sprawl of over five million inhabitants of Cariocas as they are called lies host to the world famous Carnival attracting over 2,000,000 visitors each year mostly for this lavish and colourful event. But Carnival is not he only time to visit Rio.
Architecturally resplendent yet uniquely diverse, Rio showcases its prodigal high-rise, upscale living quarters, where sand meets sea, immediately contiguous to and often times adjoining pint-sized flats. famous landmarks adorn the area.
A big attraction for the many foreign visitors is the temperate climate. Often times associated with the tropics
Today was chill out beach day. We got up late and were generally very lazy.
GCSE Results announced back home and there is scandal as usual about grades not being correct.
Friday 23rd August
Today we walked the full length of Copacabana Beach, which is 4km long. There are some beautiful people and some not so beautiful people, but there is certainly a lot of bottom on display. There are also some lovely buildings, especially Copacabana Palace Hotel - which is being refurbished probably in time for World Cup 2014 and then the Olympics in 2016. If I had lots of money this is where I would stay.
The beach is immaculately clean white sand with very blue water, there are big waves, which ccan be surfed but the water is cold so not many swimmers. The beaches in Rio are for being seen not for swimming.
We then did some retail therapy and hit the Havaianas shop, I have never seen so many flip flops in all sizes and colours. We bought several pairs as they make good pressies for young trendy things in the know.
We then watched the sunset on Capacabana beach, which is everything you imagine and more.
We ate at an all you can eat buffet /grill which was good value for money considering where we are.
Saturday 25th August
City tour all day today in air conditioned mini bus and English speaking guide..
Picked up at 8.30 first visit were the beaches of Copacabana, Ipanena and Leblon, the latter being very posh although in the not so far distance is one of the most famous and smallest Favella.
Copacabana Beach
One cannot even think of a beach on Brazil without the world famous Copacabana first coming to mind. Located within the city confines of Rio de Janeiro, this four kilometres strip of beach serves up an animated menu of activities and sights as lengthy as its coastline. Swimming in its crystal blue waters, tanning in its sun baked sand, kicking around a football in a game of sand soccer or beach volleyball, with or without your hands, can all be deliciously tempting your round (though June-August does see its share of rain) at this prominent South American retreat.
Named after the conspicuous (you can't miss it) and still distinguished Copacabana Palace Hotel which opened in 1920, to this day attracts the rich and famous. The allure of the wide, white sand beach, the affable locals or Cariocas, round the clock parties, bikini clad beauties (don't worry ladies there's a pile of bronzed back beef cake too) sumptuous restaurants, lively bars and music and night clubs all at very reasonable prices, will instantly gain and keep your attention through out your stay.
Leme beach is part and parcel to the same 4 km stretch of Copacabana, It draws far fewer crowds compelling many families to bring their children.
Arpoador Beach
Popular with surfers not willing to trek the distance to find bigger, faster swells Arpoador is none the less spirited. Positioned between Ipanema and Copacabana, Arpoador forms a natural border dividing the two beaches by a huge rock formation. Standing on either side of the rock affords a glorious view to its neighbours of more notoriety depending on which side of the rock you're standing. Access to this 600 yard strip of beach is by foot only. Many families and the elderly patronize this area as an escape from the suffering crowds. Losing some of the man made accoutrements hardly phases them as none of the natural ones are lost. It's the surfers though who gravitate here for its accessibility and lively surf. It's also a great place to gather to watch the sunset in the early evening.
Ipanema Beach
Just up the coast from Copacabana sits the more up scale and chic though equally lively beach of Ipanema. Brazilians have known for years this is the place to find the tall, the tan, the young and lovely garotas (young women) even before being immortalized by the composer Tom Jobim.
Repudiated as the birthplace of the tanga (tiny bikini) fashionably conscious sleek and tanned vixens along with their equally seductively male counterparts, parade the white sands in full admiration of their surroundings. Despite the fashion statements Ipanema affords the same bevy of activities as Copacabana,' Fruitvale' (no hands volleyball) soccer, belly boarding are all transpiring but in a more sedate and relaxing atmosphere. The water is calmer and more inviting to the casual swimmer. There is even a separate area for mothers with their babies.
Lablon Beach
Right next to Ipanema and on the same stretch of sand lies an extension of Ipanema. Same stylish atmosphere but significantly less crowded (except on the week-ends when they're all crowded) and even more family oriented.Very popular with single female tourists as the continuous flow of people moving about the area establishes a sense of security and comfort. Female tourists may feel awkward or anxious around the female Cariocas looking to hustle the male tourist at a beach like Copacabana. Lablon is an idyllic escape without sacrificing the amenities.
We then follow the road round Lagoa de Freitas where all the new development is taking place and a very trendy place to live because it has views of both the sea and the lake. Next stop the cable car up to Pao de Acuca, better known as Sugar Loaf Mountain from here you can see beautiful views of the beaches, marina and one of Rio's three airports. It is amazing watching the planes coming into land as it is such a short runway right out in the sea surrounded by mountains. We can also see building wroks taking place on new stadiums for the world Cup and Olympics. The bay will be where the sailing and water sports events take place.
Pao de Acucar
A mere 600 million years ago mother nature's geologic hand formed a princely natural wonder, Pao de Acucar or Sugar Loaf. Original inhabitants deemed it Pau-nh-Acqua, later to be changed by the invading French who dubbed it "Pot de Beurre". Portuguese colonists renamed it "Pao de Assucar" or Bread of Sugar only to be re-invaded by the French who assigned it "Pot de Sucre". By the Seventeenth century the Portuguese had regained their dominance and Pao de Acucar was reborn to permanency. During this time sugar cane was the primary export and upon completion of the processing the finished product was packed into bread like loaves for shipment. Hence the name Sugar Loaf.
Today Sugar Loaf is the most commonly recognized and sought after tourist attraction in Rio. But it has served its past inhabitants equally well. Navigators for years would spot the imposing figure as the entrance to Guanabara Bay. The first Portuguese arrivers chose the landmark as a settling location for the magnitude of visibility afforded towards the sea and mountains assuring their continued protection.
Today's tourists enjoy the ease and comfort of a cable car ride to the top of Sugar Loaf which was first installed in 1912, blossoming the tourists industry to Rio.
Reaching the top of Sugar Loaf is actually done in two stages. The first car ascends over 700 feet up Urca Hill affording marvellous views of Corcovado Mountain, the Niteroi Bridge and Guanabara Bay. Transferring to a second car then elevates you an additional 1300 feet to the top where spectacular views of Copacabana and other beaches can be admired.
Christ The Redeemer
Towering atop 2400 ft. tall Corcovado Mountain stands certainly Rio's most memorable monument Christ The Redeemer (Cristo Redentor). Standing upright at over 100 feet tall, two and a half million pounds with outstretched arms and open, inviting hands, Cristo maintains a 24 hour vigil to all inhabitants of Rio.
The idea of a religious statue was first conceived in 1921 by Carlos Oswaldo who sketched out a design of Christ carrying a cross. When engineer Heitor da Silva Costa was commissioned to build the monument he enlisted the aid of Polish sculptor Paul Landowski and the design was changed to its current form and it was agreed that the statue would be sculpted in France.
Today, as then, a trip to the top is a must for any traveler to Rio de Janeiro. Travelling by electrified train through the worlds largest urban forest is an adventure itself and once to the base escalators have replaced the 220 something steps once required to access the viewing area. At the base is a chapel accommodating over 100 people and a small souvenir shop. But it's the viewing area which attracts the masses.
And the view is spectacular. On a clear day a 360 degree panorama of the entire city, the beaches, the forest, mountains, Favelas and picturesque sunsets, Maracana Stadium, Rio Niteroi Bridge, the Jockey Club, Botanic Garden and more.
The Maracana stadium
Maracana, once the worlds greatest playground for world famous soccer stars such as Ronaldo, Romario, Sócrates Brasileiro Sampaio de Souza Vieira de Oliveira, Carlos Alberto, Cafu, Roberto Carlos, Falcao, Junior, Pele, Rivaldo, Rivelino, Romario, Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Djalma Santos, Nilton Santos, Socrates, Zico and the list goes on
The Maracana was built in 1950 for the fourth World Cup, the first after after a twelve-year absence due to World War II. When the stadium opened on June 16, 1950, it was officially known as the Estadio Municipal. Later, in 1964, it was named after Mario Filho, the founder of Jornal dos Sports, Rio de Janeiro's daily newspaper. However, to the locals, it was simply called the Maracana, taking its name from the small river that flows by the facility. The name given by the people took the place of the formal name and eventually the stadium became known to the world simply as Maracana.
Built in reinforced concrete as a giant oval of two tiers, divided by a smaller intermediate level of open boxes. Circling the rear 34 rows was a dramatic sweeping roof, which, at that time, was the largest spanning cantilevered cover in the world, spanning nearly 30 meters.
This made the Maracana the world's biggest football stadium of its glory days, with an official world-record attendance of 199,854 for the 1950 World Cup Final against Ururguay.
It is currently closed for refurbishment and will open for World Cup 2014 and then be used again for the Olympics 2016.The Sambadrome
The magnificent stadium designed by world renowned architect Oscar Niemeyer in 1984. The stadium's official name is Passarela do Samba Darcy Ribeiro, built in a record 110 days. Prior to the construction of the Sambadrome, the Carnival parades were held on Avenida Presidente Vargas, one of the largest streets in the downtown area.
The Sambadrome is divided into sectors with different kinds of seating arrangements. Most of Rio's who's who finds their way to the 'Camarotes' or mezzanine boxes that are the most expensive in the house. For around US$ 2200, you can be amongst a gathering of international and local celebrities, football players, politicians, and more. Alternatively, several 'Frisas' or runway boxes with six seats and a small coffee table are available for around US$ 400-1,900 per seat. These are about the best seats in the house besides the Camarotes. The special seating is not only very comfortable but offers the best views of the Carnival parades. If you can afford it, spend the extra Real or two as this is a "once in a lifetime" event.
stadium consists of bleachers or grandstand known as Arquibancadas, which present a bigger view of the samba strip. Those without numbered seats are priced lower, but are a great place to be if you want to dance the night away. Each sector in the Sambadrome is well equipped with restrooms, bars, food courts, restaurants, and ice-cream stands. For those planning on joining the spectators in the grandstands, bring a pillow and a raincoat. The pillow provides a soft seat, as the concrete steps can be very uncomfortable. For those who grow weary, the pillow can also be used for quick rest. The weather is subject to change so a raincoat will protect you from the elements. However, neither fatigue nor rain can diminish the power and excitement of the Carnival. The audience usually stands for hours dancing and singing all night long.
In terms of safety, the Sambadrome is considered to be the safest place in South America due to the high presence of security officials and the large number of politicians, royalties, and celebrities.
Samba schools start to practice dance and prepare costumes in September ready for the Carnival in February. When we visited it was open to the public to walk the length of it, so we walked about 200meters.
Catedral Metropolitana de Sao Sebastiao
The fascinating exterior design of the Catedral Metropolitana de Sao Sebastiao was done by architect Edgar de Oliveira as a truncated 106 m wide diameter cone with 75 meter height. His inspiration is allegeable from the Maia pyramids in the Peninsula of Yucatan, Mexico. Contrary to the pyramids which are square, the cone form was supposed to give a proximity to God, reminding a bit of the hats used by bishops during ceremonies.
The capacity of the Rio de Janeiro Cathedral is 20 000 people with a 18 meter high front door decorated with 48 low relief bronze plaques focusing on the theme of faith. The inside of the Catedral Metropolitana de Sao Sebastiao is lit by the sun breaking through large stained glass windows in vivid colours varying throughout the day with different intensity.
Each of the immense four windows goes up the walls to the roof, forming a cross if you look straight up. The windows differ in shape and colour creating a mystical atmosphere and the cone structure gives an excellent acoustic providing visitors with goosebumps when the catholic priests sing their heavenly music!
In the basement of the Catedral Metropolitana de Sao Sebastiao you'll find the Sacred Art Museum illustrating among other things; the fonts used to baptize the princes of the royal family, the statue of Nossa Senhora do Rosario, the throne of Dom Pedro II and the golden Rose awarded to Princess Isabel by Pope Leo XIII to celebrate her signing of the Abolition Act.
Sunday 26th August
Today we walked to the Hippie Market, this is near Ipanena Beach and is stalls selling local crafts and art work. We had lunch there from a stall selling locally produced food and traditional puddings, the best we have had in a long time. Yum!Yum! We back along the beach, the road is closed to traffic on Sundays to enable people to enjoy walking,biking, roller skating and skateboarding along the sea front. The beaches are very full today and this is the Winter season. The weather was overcast but warm, when the sun came out there was a massive cheer from everyone on the beach, it was quite comical.
Hannah & Mark managed to get tickets to see the football tonight, it was a local derby between Botofogo and Flamenco. It was interesting to attend the game but the football was not impressive with it being a 0-0 draw. What a great experience though ad certainly cheaper than watching an English came of football.
Monday 27th to Wednesday 29th August
We spent these days just chilling and strolling round the neighbourhood including the beaches. So nice to just sit and watch people and take time out to relax and enjoy each others company.
Thursday 30th August
Well the day has come to say goodbye to our travelling companions of the last 10 weeks. Hannah and Mark left for the airport at 11am on the first leg of their very long journey home. It was very emotional saying goodbye and we will miss them loads over the coming weeks. It has been great fun and we have got on very well considering we have lived with each virtually 24/7 for the last 10 weeks.
We start our next step of the journey and our final country and City in South America, we are fly to Santiago in Chile.

Any recs for western clinic attire? The clinic is in showmanship and equitation. What is typical? The info just said "traditional clinic attire" which means nothing to me in this case, since I usually would wear breeches, boots, and a tech shirt (lol). Help!

IMEMS/CCS, USHAW Lecture:The Materiality of Christian Pilgrimage, Medieval to Modern: Reflections from a Church Historian and Sometime Pilgrim
To Book: Click Here
Contact email@example.com for more information
Pilgrimage has been a constant feature of Christian life since the earliest times; it has also been encouraged as a means of dealing with sin and frowned upon as a possible "occasion of sin" in equal measure over the centuries. This paper examines, in particular, the material aspects of the devotion exhibited by pilgrims, both on route to their chosen shrine, and once they arrived there. Some of our earliest accounts of Christian pilgrimage place great emphasis on how pilgrims interacted with the shrines they visited: touching, rubbing, licking and, even in some cases, biting off parts of the objects of their spiritual desire. The lecture will explore a number of historical accounts of how pilgrims managed to get up close and personal with the sacred objects they visited and, indeed, will relate some tales of how these objects sometimes "responded" to these displays of fervour. Adopting a trans-historical approach, it will also examine just how long-lived some of these devotional practices surrounding pilgrimage have proved to be.
Salvador Ryan is Professor of Ecclesiastical History at St Patrick's College, Maynooth, and has published widely in the area of popular devotion from the Middle Ages to the present day. He is Review Editor of Irish Theological Quarterly and a member of the Editorial Board of the Cambridge University Press journal, British Catholic History. He is also a member of the European Network on the Instruments of Devotion and a volume editor for their publications.
Among his recent edited and co-edited works are The Materiality of Devotion in Late Medieval Northern Europe: Images, Objects and Practices (Dublin: Four Courts Press, 2016); Death and the Irish: a Miscellany (Dublin: Wordwell Books, 2016); Remembering the Reformation: Martin Luther and Catholic Theology (Minneapolis: Fortress Press, 2017); The Cultural Reception of the Bible: Explorations in Theology, Literature and the Arts (Dublin: Four Courts Press, 2018), and Marriage and the Irish: a Miscellany (Dublin: Wordwell Books, 2019). He has recently edited a special issue of the journal Religions on the topic of Domestic Devotions in Medieval and Early Modern Europe.

No idea about that
This time of year I rarely run any HVAC controls...during the summer, AC is generally between 65-68*. That said, this week has been mid-60's during the day at good ol 'right smack dab in the middle of the piedmont of NC elevation'.
Went to bed at this temp...
Woke up to 36* outside and this temp inside

I'm very curious to see how things play out at the capitol in VA today
I bet nothing. There was likely no real threat but because of all the hooplah the governor will say that their course of action saved the day and averted a catastrophe.
So what do I win?
Hell the protesters even cleaned the streets when they were done. The environmental protestors don't even clean up after themselves.
I really don't think it could have gone any better for the pro-2a crowd. All those guns, all those emotions...and not a single incident. Multiple races, genders, creeds, etc coming together to erase any white boomer male narrative. And as you noted, they left the place in better shape than when they got there. Frankly, I'm not sure how it could be spun negatively or with Anti-2a favorability. The only argument left on the table was/is 'these legal, law abiding citizens aren't the ones we need to worry about, it's the illegal transactions', which inherently refutes itself.
You obviously, and very wisely, do not read comment sections on social media when a news site posts an article about the rally. Many, many people said the people at the rally are the exact people we need to worry about because they are actually deranged enough to carry such weapons out in public.
Only social media I follow are groups that follow my leaning anyway. And that being said, found out a guy in one of the AR groups im in was the 'guillotine guy' in Va. I generally pay attention to those comments. Context is...discussion of honorary Dont Tread on Me custom lowers with a guillotine...low and behold, he was the guy.

They make tstat controllers that can turn on heat when its low and turn on AC when its high
Have one of those 'fancy' ones upstairs...still usually just set one heat temp and when it gets warm enough, one AC temp. This one I can set at 65* AC, if indoor temp drops below 60* it can cycle itself over to heat at whatever temp I set it to and then cycle back to AC when/if it hits a max temp. I don't particularly care for it because I've found during fall/spring it's constantly fighting itself and cycling back and forth. Then my $120 electric/gas bill turns in to $250-300/month.
Sent from my Moto Z (2) using Tapatalk
I found that when I set the gap big enough it didn't have any major issues. When it was too close it would heat up and then cause the AC to turn on prematurely.
With the heat threshold set at 59 and the AC threshold set at 75 it did well. Heat was set on 64 and AC was set on 73.
So heat never bothered to turn on and work until AC is off long enough for temp to drop to 59. Then heat takes over and keeps it at 64. Vice versus for AC. The only time swaps happened was on those weird days when snowed in the morning, pool weather for lunch and back to snow after dinner
Another thing you can do with the newer stats is program them to not run the blower when in defrost mode. During the heat cycle, the coils will frost and the unit will naturally reverse the cycle to thaw them. Normally the fan kicks on with the system and blows cold air into your house.
according to a HVAC buddy, the heat strips are supposed to run during defrost to prevent cold air.. being a reversed cycle, it needs air across the indoor coil to warm the outdoor unit..
You can turn those coils off as well. The compressor and change in state will heat the refrigerant. I think it depends on what the temperature is outside and the delta needed, but in NC you shouldn't need the air across the indoor coil. Also if you are not using electric secondary, they dont use that energy source to defrost the coils. My current unit has an oil furnace as backup vs electric coils. My furnace does not kick on when the heat pump is in defrost. I was originally told about this by someone in the commercial HVAC industry that also has this setup in his home for some time, YMMV.

C Sharp/Variables
Lesson Goals[edit | edit source]
This lesson will focus on the creation and use of different variables in C#. At the end of this lesson you should be able to:
- Understand what a variable is.
- Understand the basic C# types.
- Create variables of different types.
- Assign values to those variables.
- Cast from one variable type to another.
Variables[edit | edit source]
A variable is a place in memory where the application can store some type of information. This information can be a number, a string, a class, a delegate, or even a custom data type. Variables are very important for data manipulation. It would be hard to create a useful program that had no way of storing and manipulating different types of data. A computer variable is very similar to algebraic variables used in high school math. For example:
x = 5 y = 4x + 2
By using algebra we can solve for y. We can do this by first substituting the value of x into the equation, and then adding 2 to 4*x. The final result is 4*5 + 2 = 22.
The neat property of using a variable is that it is now possible to change the outcome of the algebraic equation by manipulating x. By changing x to 2 the equation is equal to 4*2 + 2 = 10. This allows a computer program to be able to perform extremely complex tasks.
The variable x in our algebraic equation represents a number. This number could be an integer (-1, 0, 2, 8) or a floating point number (2.1, 3.14159, 3/5). Human mathematicians are fairly good at determining what to do given any type of value for x. Computers are not as flexible, and they need to know what sort of value is being stored in a variable. For this reason, C# has a number of different types of variables.
Types[edit | edit source]
In the above algebraic example, we have taken for granted that x can actually store a number. Programming languages such as C# have types associated with their variables. Here is a list of all the types in C#.
|Size (in bits)
|false or true
|-128 to 127
|0 to 255
|-32768 to 32767
|0 to 65535
|-2147483648 to 2147483647
|0 to 4294967295
|-9223372036854775808 to 9223372036854775807
|0 to 18446744073709551615
|0 to 65535
|1.5 x 10-45 to 3.4 x 1038 (7 digits precision)
|5.0 x 10-324 to 1.7 x 10308 (15-16 digits precision)
|1.0 x 10-28 to 7.9 x 1028 (28-29 digits precision)
Variable Instantiation[edit | edit source]
C# has a common method for the creation of variables.
type name;
Where type is the "type" of variable to initialize. "name" is a custom name that the programmer assigns the variable. Lets declare our variable x from above.
int x = 5;
The above code not only creates a variable x that can store a number (as specified by int), but it also stores a value of 5 into that variable. So now whenever we call the variable x the computer will see that as a value of 5.
You can also assign values to your variables at any point in the program. This can be done with the = operator.
int x = 0;
x = 5;
The above code will create a variable named x that can store an integer number (as specified by int). The initial value of x is zero. However we change the value of x to 5 at the second line of code.
Code Example 1[edit | edit source]
using System;
namespace VariablesExampleOne
class Program
static void Main(string[] args)
int x = 0;
Console.WriteLine("The variable x contains " + x);
x = 5;
Console.WriteLine("The variable x contains " + x);
int y = 2;
Console.WriteLine("The variable y contains " + y);
float z = 2.4f;
Console.WriteLine("The variable z contains " + z);
Console.WriteLine("The integer cast of z is " + (int)z);
Console.WriteLine("Hit any key to end...");
Output[edit | edit source]
The variable x contains 0 The variable x contains 5 The variable y contains 2 The variable z contains 2.4 The integer cast of z is 2 Hit any key to end...
Remarks[edit | edit source]
Lets step through this code one line at a time.
int x = 0;
This line initialized a new integer named x. The initial value of x is set to zero. If we did not define this initial value to zero, then the program would not compile properly.
Console.WriteLine("The variable x contains " + x);
This line outputs some data to the console. This line in particular prints the value of x on the screen. The operator + performs a string concatenation. This means the string value of x is appended to the end of the text and then displayed in the console.
x = 5;
Console.WriteLine("The variable x contains " + x);
Next we've reassigned the value of x. We no longer need the keyword int because we've already told the compiler that we'd like a variable named x. After reassigning the value of x to 5, we then output this to the screen.
int y = 2;
Console.WriteLine("The variable y contains " + y);
Next we've created a new variable named y. This variable is initialized to 2. The purpose of this code is to show that your variable can be initialized to whatever you'd like. The result is then output to the console.
float z = 2.4f;
Console.WriteLine("The variable z contains " + z);
Here we've created a new variable type. A float can store non-integer numbers. We've initialized this float to 2.4f. The f is to inform the compiler that 2.4f is a floating point value. If we'd used 2.4 instead of 2.4f then the compiler would have assumed that 2.4 represented a double. It would have then thrown an error, because the compiler is not sure how to convert a double to a float without help from the programmer.
Console.WriteLine("The integer cast of z is " + (int)z);
Here we've casted the floating point value of 2.4f to an integer. This will remove any precision after the decimal place (as we can see on the output).
Console.WriteLine("Hit any key to end...");
These lines of code pause the execution of the program. Without these lines the program would terminate very quickly, and we wouldn't be able to view the program output. Console.ReadyKey() waits until the user presses a key.
Casting[edit | edit source]
It is often important to be able to convert between different types of data. For example, the user may request a double precision value from your program, but your program stores them as floats. The requires a conversion method between types. This conversion is accomplished via casting. The syntax for casting is as follows:
Where type is the type to convert to, and name is the name of the variable to convert.
Code Example 2[edit | edit source]
using System;
namespace VariablesExampleTwo
class Program
static void Main(string[] args)
float area = 304.12f;
int truncated = (int)area;
Console.WriteLine("Original area: " + area);
Console.WriteLine("Truncated area: " + truncated);
Console.WriteLine("Hit any key to end...");
Output[edit | edit source]
Original area: 304.12 Truncated area: 304 Hit any key to end...
Remarks[edit | edit source]
int truncated = (int)area;
This line of code performs a type cast on the floating point variable named area. It is important to note that a cast does not change the contents of the variable area. Instead, a new integer value of area is created and stored in the variable truncated. The name truncated comes from the fact that this type of conversion (from float to int) removes any precision past the decimal place. This is called truncating.
Summary[edit | edit source]
- Variables are used to store different types of data in C#.
- C# has many types. Commonly used types include int, float and bool.
- Each variable is given a unique name by the programmer. The name should reflect the type of data that is being stored. Words such as Area and IsValid are more descriptive than t_var1e. Using descriptive variable names can help with code comprehension.
- Casting between basic types is possible using the syntax
- Casting can introduce problems if the destination data type causes a loss of information. An example is when converting from a float to an int. The float will be truncated to remove any precision after the decimal place. This causes a loss of data and it is important that the program be robust enough to deal with the loss of data accordingly.
Practice Exercises[edit | edit source]
- Create a program that can convert a double to an int and then back to a double. What is the final value of your variable? Did you expect this outcome? Make lots of explanatory console outputs so that you can better understand what is going on at each step of your code.
- Create a program that converts from an int to a char. What happens when you output this char to the screen using Console.WriteLine?

Kuta is a place on the south island of Bali, Indonesia which is mostly famous for its beach and resorts. Kuta has the best beachfront that is clean, wide and stretches around 5 kilometers. It is ideal for romantic walks. Kuta beach is also known as Sunset Beach. It is one of the most popular beaches in Bali. Kuta was originally a fishing village located towards Bali's western side. It has something to offer to all kinds of travelers, whether they are families, couples in love or restless backpackers.
Once a simple, rustic and quiet fishing village, Kuta has witnessed a transformation over the past years. This is due to the rise of various accommodation options, dining and shopping scenes. The rapid growth owes much to visitors, beachcombers and art lovers from nearby Australia.
Best time to visit Kuta
The best time to visit Kuta is April, May, June and September, just before and just after high season because it's still dry season, it's slightly less humid, and room prices and villa rentals can be 30-50% cheaper than during the high season. Many shops offer sales and promotions, restaurants are less crowded in those mid-season months, and in general Bali is a bit more relaxed. October is not too bad either, still much less rain than November. These months are also the best time for water sport activities such as scuba diving, surfing, snorkeling, etc. Waters are clear, crowd not too bad etc. Also major activities and attractions such as the family parks and fun things to do (Bali Zoo, Bali Bird Park, Marine & Safari Park, Waterbom, White Water Rafting, Monkey Forest, etc) have less visitors which can make the experience far more enjoyable.
What is it famous for?
Kuta Beach is famous for its unique culture like before Balinese New Year, the island erupts into colorful Melasti ceremonies of cleansing and purification. Parades of demonic effigies called Ogoh Ogoh converge on the beaches. But the main thing that Kuta is known for is its sunset view, party-centric atmosphere and surfing in the Indian Ocean. Kuta's waves suit beginner to advanced surfers and many surf schools line the beach.The main attractions of Kuta Beach are its celebrations and festivals, Balinese theater and dance, Balinese shadow puppets, the colorful Kuta art market, Ceremonial masks and other handicrafts. The main beach roads of Jalan Kartika Plaza and Jalan Pantai Kuta are dotted with modern establishments, from numerous hotels, entertainment spots, shops big and small, and a mix of restaurants and bars.
Things to do at Kuta Beach
There are lots of things to do at Kuta beach like one who visits the Kuta should just enjoy the warm waters of the beach, laze during the day, appreciate the photogenic sunsets and listen to nature's symphony created when waves crash by. Sunbathing, surfing, swimming and beach soccer are favorite pastimes, while masseuses, hair braiders and peddlers roam the coast.
There are many things that can convince anyone that why he/she should visit this beach like this beach is mainly known for it to be strategic, affordable lodgings, the best place to do & learn surfing, a beautiful sunset, meeting new friends, lots of merchandise and souvenirs and last but not the least good place to play beach sports.
Is it worth the money?
So, overall if anyone who wants to spend some free time enjoying and relaxation then Kuta will be one of the best options for him/her. This Beach will give immense pleasure to anyone. This will not only make an individual trip better but it also helps in exploring and enhancing their lifestyle. One of the best parts of this Beach is that it has one of the best Sunset views in the world. Also, surfing conditions on this Beach is always extremely good so, for surfers Kuta Beach is like Mecca for them. If someone loves partying, adventuring, exploring places then the Kuta Beach will be heaven for them.
One thing that I am very sure of is that one will never regret visiting this beach. So, in my opinion, one should visit this awesome place in order to enjoy his/her life and exploring the world. This Beach will definitely make its great impact on anyone who has ever visited here. Overall this Beach is worth visiting.
