The route of the "bump" There is always at least one in each big city

We've all heard of countries with great highways, and even be praised total roads of the same cities, usually in Europe. But our reality, at least in Guadalajara, and most of Latin America, is quite different. It is no wonder, considering the difference in budgets aimed at maintaining and improving transport links. The so-called "bumps" are without doubt more risky condition of a road, our vehicles can damage or even cause an accident unfortunate consequences. However, with careful management should not have major problems, this does not preclude accidents severe enough to our vehicle. There is no doubt that the "bumps" are a potential hazard for cars, trucks, vans, but it is also a concern for cyclists, motorcyclists and pedestrians in general. In large cities, sewage that mysteriously do not have cover, are a "bump" corrected and enlarged, with serious risks, being almost always the responsibility of citizens the "disappearance" of these covers, which are usually stolen . Yet governments sooner or later, end up taking care of these problems point to consider would be how fast they can deal with these obligations, and that meanwhile the residents of these "bumps? manage to provide a temporary solution.

The only thing left to do on our part, is be aware of the existence of these dangerous routes and try to avoid at all costs. Save repairs, time, stress and general health, and is always the possibility of saving one or more lives.

When to Continuation Bet by Andy Bloch

Today we present a very basic article about Andy Bloch continuation bet (which you can supplement with Eratosthenes wrote this for school Noticiaspoker). Is it a movement that we use regularly? How often and when? When you raise pre-flop in No Limit Hold'em table and get called, you have to make a decision when the flop comes. Should you make a continuation bet on the flop or should do and let them check out the turn card for free? Of course there are several factors that affect any decision in a hand of poker, but if I were the one who has raised pre-flop, continuation bet would be a fairly large proportion of the time. I can afford to do a lot of continuation bets, whether online or offline, because my post-flop bets are usually quite small, about half the pot. Pre-flop usually rises to three big blinds, so the flop, bet the same amount. When betting these relatively small amounts not risk too much. If someone does check / raise on a flop in which I have not connected, I can retire without losing too many chips. Most of the time, however, my opponents have missed the flop so my small bet will win me the pot right there.

Although I prefer to make continuation bets on most flops, there are some situations that happen is the right move. For example, imagine that you raise with KT and pay me the big blind. AJ 2 The flop gives me a gutshot. I know my opponent in the hand likes to check / raise with top pair. When it happens to me on the flop I'm glad because I can check behind and continue with my project free to the nuts. If my opponent connects something like two pair, could double if a lady comes on the turn. Also I usually do check on the flop in hands where or go ahead or very far behind. Imagine I uploaded pre-flop in late position with pocket kings. The flop comes A J 3. Here, my pair of kings is either far ahead (if you have failed completely or if you have something like pocket pair of fives) or far behind (if you have linked an ace). In situations like this, I do not want to check-raise and I will not simply give up, so I will often check the flop and a bet on the turn.

Then try to make a good read on my opponent if he returns to bet the river. The worst thing I can do in this kind of situation is to make a big bet on the flop and checkraise pay an all-in. As in any aspect of poker, it is vital that your continuation bets do not become predictable. If you check every time you miss and bet every time you get top pair or better will know exactly how your opponents play against you. You can bet any pair with total confidence. So occasionally, you'll want to check when you have top pair on the flop. Your hand will remain hidden and you could win a big pot if you hit a set on the turn. Showing you can do sometimes check a good hand will balance your game and confuse your opponents is a good idea to make continuation bets frequently, but also for situations where it is advantageous move for you. If you have a project to have a hand that will be difficult to play against a raise, a check on the flop may be the best move. Be sure to mix up your play, being unpredictable is vital to play a poker winner.

Chronicle of a Generation cinephile

Chronicle of a cinephile generation writer Ignacio Ortega Back in the sixties people filled the halls of the cinema to see the militant Saura, Bergman, or Fellini Berlanga. It was, as has always been a cinema, a window into our worlds impossible, a look at the thoughts of others, their imaginations and their fears, which were also our own. Do not know if it was the first film or the Bible or Don Quixote. Do not know, but the film was omnipresent in the lives of people where we took refuge like to die. That movie characters made genre films, which is the best that has ever done is gone replaced by stupid characters with that our children have grown, imported, as everything from American cinema. That was different. Slowly enough that Bogart in his raincoat seek a cigarette for all puffs incorporásemos our lives without creating alarm. It has been fifty years since the release of those emotions with the splendor of Technicolor at the bottom of the "chicken coop? in "Touch of Evil," La Dolce Vita? or "The 400 Blows?, of" Vertigo? or "plaque?, movies at home we made a transition from Rita Hayworth bare hand after removing the glove, the sensuality without Silvana Mangano navel bayón dancing in" Anna?, to LizTaylor in her tight brace of "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof? huddled after night, in the thalamus of the pillow put a face to our aspirations and difficulties.

Enjoying Venice

Wealth is much more to enjoy in possession. Aristotle

I returned to one of my favorite cities in Italy such as Venice, just two days ago to spend his lavish carnival is the first time in winter I have to visit and I had 7 degrees Celsius and rain, a very penetrating damp cold. The other times I've done in the summer. However, it is noteworthy that essentially remains a tourist town, many Asians, some Spanish, few Latinos, and European countries.

Despite his time, many people walking the streets of the carnival, many businesses, thousands of beautiful masks own the place, still looked in many stores costumes, and felt the joy of the people, fully identified with the charm of this beautiful city.

Consider the immense cultural heritage of Venice, a summary of its ancient history, was recognized by UNESCO with the distinction of World Heritage in 1987 for the historic old town and the lagoon.

Venice, built on an archipelago of 119 small islands along the Adriatic Sea, is famous in the world for about 150 channels. The islands are connected by about 400 bridges. Its channels make up a large network of streets as a part of the Grand Canal, which is like a great avenue through which run a multitude of boats, large and small, the latter being the famous gondolas. They are very useful public transport or waterbus. In the old downtown the only means of transport are boats and walking.

We add Wikipedia, Venice (Italian Venezia in Venice Venesia in old Venetian Venexia), the city of canals, is the capital of the Veneto region. It is located on a set of islands that extends in a marshy lagoon of the same name in the Adriatic Sea, between the mouths of the rivers Po (south) and Piave (north), in northeastern Italy.

Venice is composed of 120 small islands linked by 455 bridges. You get to Venice from the mainland by the Liberty Bridge accessing the Piazzale Roma.

Since its founding, the city has suffered from periodic flooding. Today the city is considered a serious threat by repeated flooding. In spring and autumn takes place called acqua alta ("high tide") twice a day and the Piazza San Marco is flooded with water. The Italian government is preparing a project called Moses to lift mobile levees would be closed if the water level rise from the sea.

The latter is really worrying. Because it shows the rising waters. For example, on my arrival at St. Mark's Square as it was noted, was filled with water, so that to enter the church had improvised a table Pasadilla. However, there was plenty of water.

Venice [] is surrounded by shallow lagoons, that always brought him great defense. In its waters the ships ran aground easily that they knew the funds, so it was like a city entrenched within large walls. The walls of Venice are dangerous sand banks that are almost exposed at low tide. To get from the Adriatic had to know the steps, which in peacetime were marked with rows of poles with lights for the night.

On leaving the station, took train in Bologna and two hours late in arriving at Venice central station, Santa Lucia, one leaves the station and finds the water taxi that lead to the main points of the city, or if you want to walk to St. Mark's Square, crossing the whole city can do it, because it is well signposted, plus it is very busy and you can see all businesses, bridges, beautiful gondolas traveling.

It is very true what gives us a wikipedia and enjoys them intensely, despite the drizzle in colorful beauty is extraordinary, we are told, that Venice has a legendary reputation for its extensive artistic heritage and long history as a reference European painting. The wealth of the powerful of the city (the church, politicians and certain businessmen) allowed for an extended sponsorship of painters, architects and other artists, from Gentile Bellini in the fifteenth century to the late Francesco Guardi eighteenth century, to Giovanni Bellini, Titian, Giorgione, Sebastiano del Piombo, Tintoretto, Veronese, Jacopo Bassano, Giambattista Tiepolo, among others. Interestingly, many of these artists were born in other places and went to Venice attracted by its strength.

The style of the Venetian painters successive retained some common characteristics (warm, rich colors) that radiated their influence through Europe. The so-called "Venetian School" influenced such diverse masters as Rubens and Velázquez, and modeled in part the seventeenth century Baroque style.

When one travels through the streets and are interested in classical music, what Italy has left us, can not forget representing Antonio Vivaldi born in Venice, one of the summits of Baroque music, the March 4, 1678 ( died in Vienna on July 28, 1741). Another great music, Richard Wagner, died in the city on February 13, 1883. Likewise, the great composer? Gor Stravinsky died in New York though, wanted his remains were brought to Venice and now rest in the cemetery of San Michele. This reflects the importance of the city not only as the birthplace of many geniuses, but above all as an inexhaustible source of inspiration throughout the history of poets, musicians, painters and all kinds of artists.

In Venice is one of the most famous opera theaters in the world, the Teatro de la Fenice, which literally means "phoenix" and lives up to its name, having emerged from the ashes after repeated fires, the last in the late XX. First performance was some of the most famous pieces of the repertoire, including several of Verdi.

Very sad when one must leave Venice, but the time spent on it can enjoy the most intense and very difficult to forget that it can be, unfortunately like every beginning has an end, let me touch and return back to Bologna, but inviting who would like to meet beautiful cities, leaving no visit, it is something you have to know.

Mapuche Contemporary Art, an approach to a definition

To speak of "Contemporary Mapuche Art?, We need to address the significance of the word art.

This conceptual journey in search of the definition has already been done in Western philosophy and from this perspective does not define what art is finally Mapuche. But no matter what the trench in which we are located to identify this term, despite this, the art is in everything where human expression is manifested in the world, anywhere. Art is about everything that we understand that, whatever the reader to read it. Thus a learned reader will see art where the common people do not see. And so the people see art where the scholar will only waste. We will discuss both art and construction, and formal aesthetic of the highest spiritual expression. Perhaps in the world do not speak Mapuche art itself as understood in the Western world, but from the Western world if you can distinguish elements that allow art to speak of contemporary Mapuche. One of the concepts difficult to conceive within the contemporary Mapuche conception of art is to understand the integrated art, for example political, without being it official art. In Western culture, art is an ongoing quest integral in the integral art Mapuche culture is fundamental.

One element that helps to understand art is its dissociation Mapuche Chilean art, reaffirming the idea that the Mapuche nation is a people distinct from the Chilean society. Thus art is the expression that reveals our existence in the world. It is the yearning of each Mapuche itself express a feeling that is in the "heart? (Piwke). Arts & Economic power Economic power, predation engine that drives the Western world, which conditions the trial of how you look at the artwork. That is, it should see the individual as art is what the power demand. No matter the ideological dimension which originates the work and struggle against power, economic power, has a form of hypnosis over all other ideas, that drives only in the sense of affirming the idea captivating, but does not cause progress on the future leading to the development of human culture. Indeed, there is a condition in Latin America subjugated culture, in the majority of villages where the dominant ideologies condition the ways of seeing. The democratic exercise of art is expressed according to the pattern dictated from economic power.

A pattern that defines and articulates all the conditions which contribute to the experience of art is a fact. This power, to name one aspect, the device runs from senior visual control exercised in the world, from the ultimate source generating visual processing contemporary television. Television as a scalable concept, is the medium in which all the working ideological, religious, economic, values, philosophy, ie all areas of the human world mixtures, and the "final visual product? comes to individual components and processed, where the consumer interacts with the spiritual expression, but with the formal elements, designed to make those in power to constrain individual and collective mind. TV Box not put into enhancing the cultural differences. This visual body shows us the illusion of unitary culture. The chimera of nationality and equitably shared. This observation is remarkable to say that our personal worlds, social and group are intertwined and it is precisely for this feature is used this way for the state government. Therefore all our collective soul injury is a sore on each of us and by others, breaks we finally wound our collective desire.

Denial and the stereotype of Mapuche cultural condition is defined by the predatory power, so the Chilean mestizo alienated from their ancestral gene to better assimilate the fragile thread that binds the heart of the father languidly away. When the genesis of the artwork is not based on an engine part predator, is excluded within the cultural and commercial circuits. The power of this effect and called it Leviathan knows who will lead the world order. When the work is carried out from a common cultural heritage that falls outside the tolerance level of economic power, and makes more difficult the path of predation becomes "terrorist threat?. Mestizaje in Latin America and Chile "... have never been able to remove or erase the memories of what we were Indians, because we are the culture of heaven and earth, we are the descendants old and we are millions, and though the whole universe will collapse, our People continue to live even beyond the power of death "(Solemn Declaration, General Board of Chiefs, 1991). There is a reversal of the visual movement of people - Indian nation in many Latin American countries, this is a very common practice of the dominant state.

The denial of the existence, subjecting this lie as a controlled hypnosis, and those most affected are the indigenous people who form the majority of Latin American territory. Generally not open to the Chilean cultural environment where windows is the true exercise of being Mapuche within the medium in which it occurs. Within the definition of art if it is raised in a serious way, there is a failure, a complete ignorance of ancient aesthetics. A if and Chile Osorno and more specifically there is a percentage over 80% of the population of Indian origin, authorities artists, intellectuals, politicians, religions and the Chilean people themselves deny the existence of others and themselves. Ironically Osorno presents the world as a multicultural city of colonies, but for foreigners who have ever visited this land in its streets are old and distressed look of a people subject to an imposition of culture that keeps them trapped in a prison the body itself. For example, in the field of Rawe there a place that is sacred, and TXEN TXEN Kaikaifilu where ancestral ceremonies were performed, (still do) about the ancient culture cultural expressions are also irreducible with respect to the Mapuche philosophy to finally worldview.

This entails that through this event will involve what is called music today, performing arts, architecture, visual arts and so on. We can say that the history of art Rawe has about 2000 or more than 9000 years ... as the cultural elements of this sector are the same which are part of the discovery of human settlement at Monte Verde area between Puerto Montt and Osorno, findings that put in a situation of historical absurdity the theory of American settlement. You could say so many words and with great pride that Rawe sector has a history dating back about 9000 years at least. The art of all who see the world from this perspective is ancestral tradition and perpetuates the vision of world that we are part. Mapuche Art is contemporary, but at the same time is ancestral, it does not invent or signs that contain philosophy. Your extension is deployed freely according to the development of life itself.

In the Chilean television has shown viciously evil called "Mapuche conflict?, Following the unfortunate murder of Matthias Catrileo Peni, a member of the Coordinadora Arauco Malleco" very unfortunate and hunger strike of Patricia Troncoso Lamu, as well peñi wrongful arrest dela LLitul Hector, caused by the application of the antiterrorism law inherited from the former dictatorship. In applying this law the State of Chile does not recognize the condition of the Mapuche people, ie a structure is not recognized, a society ready under cultural elements. One of the detached thoughts is that "the problem of the Mapuche people is not the existence of the inhabitants of Chile and its permanence in the territory, but transnational capital, predation on human dignity. The soul of Chilean society has a problem with himself and the problem it is loaded with the Mapuche people. "I might add that the Mapuche art is not art leftover Chilean Chilean art even today is colonial art, without identity in the most of the cases. mapuche art is the art of human beings living in the world, identity, territory, world view. Finally omit the cultural expression of a people is to kill the human being who is behind this town.

The Enlightenment and the world mestizo "There are only two worlds: the world of human beings living on earth, therefore the Mapuche - people of the earth and other beings that do not belong here but still roam the earth and beyond? Nana Francisca Aucapan. Ralko Lepuy, Pueblo Pewenche. Illustration is to show how supervised an idea, it is also the possibility of acquiring information in a practical and simple. Likewise when the artwork is a true copy of the idea, illustrates to the reader. Has occurred throughout the history of Western art. The Western world's cultural egocentricity that seeks to redeem exercise supremacy to other human groups according to their custom and likeness. The Decline of the West from the postmodern world is to consolidate a chaos of ideas that shows clearly the precariousness of the cultural system and who opposes the Mapuche world. The Chilean mestizo forms the largest percentage of the population of Chile, do not recognize their ancestral twin, the local and foreign. It is in this vain feeling sick leave this latent ambivalence, in which sits the predatory power.

The visual world known Mapuche Chilean mestizo, is based on the representation of the visual elements characteristic of Western culture in Chile. Everything before that enhanced chroniclers through the ancient inhabitants of this land (certainly a common practice of subjugating powers to glorify by lowering the guard about the real intention of usurping power) depicting situations on the future of primary early genesis of the Chilean national, local customs situations, recognition of self in this world. So just as nineteenth-century European photographers show in ambiguous situations in theater designs shown familles Mapuche. He calls this the settler based imagery of the nation, the Creole, the native. The folklore is to settle as illustrative for the Chilean colony or town, to understand illustrations and original sense of the world, where he created new life for their ancestors, in short to have a picture of himself in this other world . In recent times it did Violeta Parra, Victor Jara Chilean Mapuche descent artists. Folklore is the fake copy of the original reflection. The indigenous folk elements are used but dissociated from their origin.

The shapes, colors, sounds, are an interpretation of one's own idea, perhaps expresses the feeling of a colonized people cling to that by living cultural elements of this territory, establishes a fleeting difference that makes you own idea of itself. In this schizophrenia mestizos move our people, in the hope hidden. Social schizophrenia in the sense of not belonging to the expression itself. What unfolded live without finding one's own body. Isolated living between two worlds. Many times the picture with the Indian itself is not reflected, but the vision of what power means it has of itself and the image you want is to have the brother. The spiritual fragmentation makes us suspicious enemies many times. Non-acceptance of this reflex forced exile outside the social system. When you separate the image of being represented, appeals to that at some point in Western history is called the world of shadows. The same origin. For example, for Plato, the painting was a minor art because it was a copy, as opposed to the truth, finally things other than beauty.

Today contemporary art shows with advantage the beautiful is not necessarily true among other things in the world ... Perhaps not strictly speaking Mapuche art as understood in the Western world, but from the Western world if you can distinguish elements that allow to speak of Mapuche artwork. This is not new because already in the fourteenth century, Albrecht Durer, quintessential Renaissance man in northern Europe, to take some pieces of headgear, jewelry, jewelry, said the art that bring the highest art is that price, as high as the best European art, and these people could be called artists and creative geniuses?. In our hearts we are what we want to be, but each of our neighbors has an idea that rubs the value of ideas. But the Western artistic expression is that what the "piwke? (Heart) desires? Perhaps the answer is what the power demand or require that the dominant idea. When a Mapuche culture as expressed their desires of the heart, not only represents the action to represent the idea or desire, the act of creating and the product are from the source to the final realization of that desire reason.

The artistic gesture is in itself an expression of the Unitarian movement in which the reading of the cosmos, the human world and the object are one. Artistic creation, the work, are physically of the transcendent. The colors, rhythms, shapes, sounds, textures, movements, etc.., Are necessary tools to say things in the soul. The Mapuche people know that the image he has of himself is variable and depends on the location and socio-political context in which it is each individual. All matters relating to their worldview will determine the aesthetic vision to confront the dominant idea. The vision for the use of formal elements fits through an appropriation of the visual areas of the western world. From the use of the horse, the silver coins minted by the State of Chile, (with her trapelacucha are made), language, religion, politics are cultural elements that have allowed the survival of ancient culture, and split the longing of the heart finds its way and this path and finds it in himself and his peers. The natural geography determines the direction of the yearning of the heart, and instead involves worlds located in a physical and from there the world, into the universe.

Paradoxically can not talk about art Chilean Mapuche considering artworks dating back thousands of years of existence. Chile as newly formed nation state in 1825, the Spanish crown could also be placed in your art history, as the expression Mapuche territory during the Spanish conquest was according to them. The only way to justify that art is art Chilean Mapuche by the conquest of Mapuche territory. We are dealing with an idea to eliminate the desire of piwke by military might and domination by force. The original, native, does not require illustrate the same, the work by action of the heart yearning gestures. Mapuche Contemporary art is inserted from the standpoint of his own acts elements, media, techniques, concepts, ideas adapted. The gesture, action and the play The gesture is the instinct that is born of the yearning of the heart. The compromise option elements that cross established structures. The precise movement that causes subduing disorderly. The conceptual contortion that restores the proper order. The action is the completion of the work spaces and movements verbs that are characteristic of the Mapuche worldview.

The organization of the components and raw materials at a pace and in their own space. The work is the result of a process object that begins with the yearning of the heart. The forms they acquire are determined by the action, the gesture is the placement within the context of this work to thereby cause the release valve of individual and collective desire. Within the cultural assimilation of Chilean society against Western, we assume a strategic subordination and thus establishes the concept of art and make it his own. Ownership of the concept to survive and carry piwke longing to the outside of the self. All great art is born of the yearning of the heart, is what we mean intimate. Achieved or not our task a longing always there waiting for the right moment to come out and be flesh of the body. The dreams, whatever they are part of our worldview, tradition, ceremonies, and all components of the Mapuche worldview are the yearnings of the heart. They are desires that beat from the distance of time. La Nación Mapuche ancestral culture unfolds as each of the elderly, children, relationship with peers, siblings who are reflections, or the image that comes closest to the image that I feel that I represent.

This construction produces a network of own desires to be collectivized. Each of the men and women have this desire, without seeing the image on the outside but as something that exists and we know only in part, underground living there with me as, in this silent darkness are woven networks, networks of affect, unification of knowledge networks. Every man and woman has a piece of their collective history a fragment alone is not pressed, it just makes it in the collectivization of this portion. In the socialization makes sense both individually and collectively. In communication, conversation, the experience with the land, contact with nature is the remnant of the lost memory in the remote within the self. This desire itself is also collective. Mapuche culture has a body of ideas structured through thousands of years, art. The philosophy, technology, are elements that are to be invited to the Mapuche world uninvited. Just as each Mapuche makes his life a process, a way of learning to live as Mapuche society as a whole does. The recovery of the Mapuche are spaces both physically and conceptually this is an original process that integrates a nation it is their nature.

Technology is an everyday reality and the best "drug that keeps this sort of lethargy in our ancient people with their fancy gadgets create a better society. Art is a means of survival and continuity. Mapuche Contemporary art takes many forms, with styles that are not defined directly by the prevailing trends a priori, therefore the forms it takes is the appropriation of styles and languages ​​used within the context of Western art. Thus, a carved piece of wood depending on the gesture to contextualize this work takes on a character in another context. Also as Mapuche land have been stripped and that stripping was carried out within the whole field of ancient culture, just as the practice of art is a contemporary Mapuche appropriation of cultural elements from this universal and permanent possibility of establishing a survival. Survival is tied to the most remote spiritual expressions, and the contemporary Mapuche art is one more element to reconstruct the world that we own Mapuche art is the art of the culture process itself and the people, there is art if not There is recognition or liberty can not exist without the other is a univocal relationship is structured in unification.

How Much Money Do You Get After A Car Accident?

When you've been involved in a car accident you suffered injuries as a result of the negligence of other drivers, you are entitled to be compensated for the damages you have suffered, including economic. If you suffered minor injuries such as whiplash or deep wounds and bruises, and even more serious injuries such as fractures, internal bleeding and soft tissue sprains, believes that auto insurance, from the other driver can really help to back to where you were before the accident.

If the other driver is uninsured, you probably have to sue him for your damages. If you have insurance, you or your attorney can negotiate with the adjuster and trying to get an agreement. This may or may not involve the filing of a complaint in the appropriate court, however, everything works according to whether you or your lawyer give the face with the victim.

Evaluate your claim with the insurer

How does an adjuster examines the demand for an injury? That depends on the procedures of the insurer, but generally, these are the criteria that the adjuster taken into account when determining the amount of money an injured individual to receive to solve your problem:

• Details of the accident. What happened? How fast? Where? Who was involved? Were traffic rules were not met? Did the police? Someone was fined? To summarize the basic facts are that the adjuster will consider.

• Liability. Adjusters must assess an application failure before offering any solution. If one party is clearly responsible and no doubt it will be easier.

There are accidents in which it is difficult to determine who was responsible, as given in a controlled intersection or a left turn in front of a moving car. Sometimes, experts in reconstruction of events, should be used to assess the accident scene, damage to cars, etc.. So you can determine what really happened. At other times it is determined that both parties were negligent and the failure has to be dealt.

• Extent of injuries. The adjuster will request certain information on injuries. In this way be able to determine the severity of injuries. Has to observe the lesions with a scrutinizing eye.

Fraudulent claims are common, but do not take it personally. You just have to provide what is asked of you. Normally required of a medical report and a prognosis for recovery because they want to know what type of treatment and / or medication use. Experience helps to determine whether treatment is reasonable and necessary for the type of injury.

• Expenses. This is a very simple thing. How much is needed to cover medical expenses? How much is lost in wages? Do you need additional quantities? You will have to provide documentation to support your claim:

• Copies of medical bills and statements

• Pay stubs

• Receipt of medicines

• Other expenses

A theme may be difficult to prove the amount of money lost if you have your own business and you had to miss work. Sometimes a financial expert is needed to help determine the losses, we must also consider the damage to your property, if any, unless you have an insurance for it.

If the fault was another driver, the insurance will pay and you must provide at least a repair estimate. How far the car was damaged will help determine liability.

• Other Factors

Sometimes there are other factors involved that must be taken into account. For example, if you are a caregiver for children or elderly family member before the accident and now you can not play as such, need to hire someone else. If you were working at a job that requires physical activity and can no longer do because of injuries, you have to point out.

Also consider if the consequence of the accident and can not do the housework and have to hire someone or your spouse must take the time to perform them.

Once the adjuster has all the necessary documentation to evaluate your claim, have a range of values ​​based on all information and make you an offer. However, there is no special formula and do not expect to take your first offer, as it surely will wait to negotiate. If you have a lawyer, he will do the negotiating for you, if you do not, you will face.

Remember that insurance companies are not in the business of spending much money in lawsuits because they want to pay only what they deserve or what they think is a good amount. But if you negotiate wisely, you will leave satisfied. If you think your scope is too little and your lawyer thinks the same, you have to face the judicial problem.

Industrial Engineer, your role, Effective Performance

Carlos Mora Vanegas

Do not give anyone that asks you, but understand what you need, and support after their ingratitude. Miguel de Unamuno

Overview, relevance and scope

Increasingly, thanks to technological development, active participation of companies in the markets where they operate, and what consumers demand, has meant that industrial engineers are prepared with this new knowledge has been derived from it and where, technology, new products offered are guaranteed for their quality, productivity, service management, and anything that involves good process management, general management ensuring good participation in the conquest of markets and stay in already earned

Hence, the Faculties of Engineering involved in the training of these professionals need to retrain and to define the profile of these, according to the current reality of the economic, commercial, where, knowledge management, technology, management science has given way new paradigms that forces universities to not anchoring in the characteristics of the former scenario, the opposite ensure comprehensive training, which is reflected in the performance of the duties to be performed by a good engineer

Industrial engineering focuses on the "way" in which those products and services are using the same approaches apply to other engineers in the development of the product or service, and for the same purpose.

Consider what it brings, rincondelvago.com. the engineer must be updated continuously in all its tools, especially in technology, management of this process, quality management,. Currently, an industrial engineer has tools for design, production and control that go beyond what I could imagine a mechanical engineer experienced in 1950. Since computers can be programmed to solve large and complex problems, can become an interactive device that helps in designing a floor plan or a mechanism of production can become the basis of numerical control machining and control quality, such as computer-controlled robots can provide hands to produce more accurately, safely and more continuous than human hands, this is undoubtedly very different from what existed a few years ago, hence they should be updated an industrial engineer



What are these features, performance to do?

In this regard, these vary according to the ruble of each company, however there are many communities that can not be ignored, Daniela Trocóniz provides some as:

Selection of manufacturing processes and design methods and tools ensamblaje.Selección equipos.Técnicas design and facilities, including the provision of buildings, machines and materials handling equipment, raw materials storage facilities and operational practices producto.Elaborar .

The Challao - to make a mini-tourism Mendoza

"Once we got accommodation in Mendoza, there are no excuses for not touring the tourist circuit of the Challao. The Challao is part of the Gran Mendoza, is only 5 km away from the city and is located in a space between the San Martin park and umbilical de las Lajas. It is the hill where the Angostura, where you can perform various activities. Challao is a beautiful place for walking, cycling, mountain biking, trekking, and even horseback riding. The place widely deployed to provide maximum comfort to the tourist, with a drive-in, restaurants and nightclubs and a magic carpet.

One of the most beautiful Challao is your sanctuary. This is an impressive amphitheater for about 4000 people, dedicated to the worship and the celebration of Masses. Construction is about 90 by 45 m and a height of 65 m. It is dedicated to the devotion of Our Lady of Lourdes, being originally a humble seat where there was a small statue of the saint.

Whoever has the fortune to be staying at one of the many fine hotels in Mendoza, do not miss a visit to El Challao, one of the most beautiful places of Greater Mendoza.

In Camagüey

Camagüey is located almost in the center of the province of Camagüey, at the confluence of two small rivers and Hatibonico Tínima. It was founded with the title of Villa with the name of Santa María del Puerto del Principe in place now since 1528, although it is known that it was built 14 years ago on the north coast, at a point near the existing port Nuevitas. In 1903 the city takes its present name of Camaguey. It has a modern ring and the international airport Ignacio Agramonte, one of the best in Cuba. It is a city of high values, so we recommend you first quickly find a place to stay if you have not done what was advised in the previous article. Rest and then proceed to visit the city. The hotels available in the area are the Islazul Gran Hotel (three stars), the Hotel Islazul Camagüey (two stars), the Columbus Hotel Islazul (two stars), the island of Cuba Islazul Hotel (two stars), the Hotel Islazul Plaza ( two stars) and the Hotel Islazul Puerto Principe (two stars). As part of Old Havana and its Fortifications, Havana, the Morro de Santiago de Cuba and Trinidad and the Valley of the Mills, Camagüey, in particular the Urban Historic Centre was declared a World Heritage Site on 2 February of 2009.

According to renowned experts, (Gomez, L. et al., 2006), this center is the largest in Cuba, it has approximately 10 000 buildings, located in 320 blocks, which occupy an area of ​​approximately 300 hectares. For lovers of architecture and buildings from another era in acceptable condition, a city tour will be unforgettable. Looking at the map of the city observed a curious phenomenon in the layout of its streets, something unique not only in Cuba but also in Latin: they both common as street alleyways, do not form a regular pattern and harmony, but it is very sinuous, intertwined, by way of a maze or a broken crockery in multiple pieces. The predominant route of irregular blocks. This entails that there is an increased interior space, the seat of many churches present in the city. The conservation of these values ​​in this city was made possible by its isolation, its slow growth and lack of controls in your neighborhood. Is typical of the coexistence of numerous city squares and plazas between the fabric of streets and narrow cobbled streets. To the above must be added the mix of architectural styles and numerous churches located in the squares and located between the districts.

Hence the name which is also known in this city: the city of churches.

It is true that states that the city is colonial, but in reality only 8% of the properties have this feature (arches, pilasters truncated brace eaves, roofs jars and armor), while the appearance eclecticism prevails . It turns out that the interior of a building is old, while the outside has more modern. In other words, what prevails outside the twentieth century eclecticism. The city center is within the historic center, an issue of great benefit from the functional point of view, animation and activity, since it carried out major urban functions. Predominates in the historic center section of street and sidewalk, so the streets are narrow alleys in particular (narrow streets and short). The streets and alleys sometimes expand, giving rise to expansions which are highly representative buildings, usually chaired by churches. Very typical in the historic center is open spaces, plazas and squares, no green. However, seen from the air inside of buildings for private use much space, very green (inner garden).

In these courts is still possible to observe large earthen vessels, the Andalusian-style, to store rainwater. This is unique in this province of Cuba. At the same jars are called. Hence, it is also call the city: the City of Tinajones. Walking through the historic center is an unforgettable experience, because due to its typical urban structure vision encompasses a large space and you can admire different urban spaces, many of which include a church or convent. To begin to walk, then we recommend starting in the Plaza Mayor, or the old Plaza de Armas and today also called Parque Ignacio Agramonte. In the city there are five main squares, and this is one of them. From here, and arranged in the 4 cardinal points, you can easily reach the other four places: La Merced, San Francisco, San Juan de Dios and El Carmen, in each of which there is a church. The last two places retain their original colonial atmosphere: the first is the most characteristic square and has the most representative urban complex of the past, while in the second the church has two towers, something very rare in the interior of Cuba.

The seats are highly recommended to design an itinerary to visit the city, for in them is common to find residents and visitors resting, reunited with friends or walking the streets. The latter are used for communication between the squares, where sections are the parks, the only green space within the city, except the so-called Casino Campestre, the only large green area of ​​the city. If you want to enjoy the tranquility of resting or reading in an environment of greenery and privacy, we recommend looking for a rental house in this area, as in the inner courtyards abundant vegetation. Ten secondary squares (Maceo, La Soledad, La Caridad, El Cristo, Santa Ana, Mendez, Havana, Whereabouts, the Theatre, San Jose), six churches, and seven squares (The Five Corners? Angel, Bedoya, Triana, Painter, San Clemente, Juana Castillo and Avellaneda), make it interesting to visit in this city. From a cultural visit there are numerous sites worth knowing. Among the museums you should visit the Museo Casa Natal Nicolas Guillen, Cuba's national poet, besides the museums related to the life and work of Mayor Ignacio Agramonte y Loynaz, the most important figure for the deeds of the independence of Cuba and from from a prominent family in the area.

These museums are three: one is the Birthplace Museum Ignacio Agramonte, a beautiful eighteenth century building whose courtyard is a typical representative example of the colonial court at that time. Another is the Museo Provincial Ignacio Agramonte, also built in a XVIII century building, where one can admire furniture and objects of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The other museum is the Quinta Simoni, wife of Ignacio Agramonte. We also recommend you visit the Museum of Najasa. The construction itself is not to display something, but it is a hilly area with abundant petrified remains of trees. It is a truly impressive natural site. After being in this city is proposed to head north and enjoy Playa Santa Lucia, a distance of 110 km. But you are advised to stay in Nuevitas before to visit two places of interest. The next articles will guide you.

A trip is the inner necessity of resorting to forget your past.

Background and Overview

It gives us on this exciting northern Italy, capital of the province of the same name, one of the seven provinces of the Veneto region.

It is surrounded by hills and trapped by a loop of the Adige River, about 30 miles east of Lake Garda.

Experience, tour

Taking advantage of my stay in Parma decided to make a trip to the small and beautiful city of Verona, for it took the train that took me to Modena where you must change to move it. I left at 7 in a chilly morning with 5 degrees, but that on arriving in Modena was snowing. I waited for the train to take me to the city of Romeo and Juliet this started at 8.15 am and arrived in Verona at 10.30 am without a hitch .

I got off the train and walked in Porta Nuova train station, very friendly with great dynamism,

I immediately began campaigning to find out the places you would have known within a period of 6 hours that I had intended for her and returned to Parma in the evening.

In the same season is a tourist office with lots of information and attention they gave me a map of the city with the main places of attraction. I took a few data points and started to plan my trip. I started at 11 am. Fortunately, with a temperature of 15 degrees, I began my march from Porta Nuova Locatelli roadways, passing through Piazza Simoni, from there take Via Giberti Valverde road leading to the plaza leading to Pradaval and follow the beautiful square Open, where is the majestic Arena, which is visited. At the time of my arrival, there were many trips, almost all from Germany, and cities in Italy itself, as many young people. Of course, the atmosphere was very encouraged that we are in Verona carnival date so celebrated. In fact, I saw a large number of highly decorated floats that would form part of the parade that afternoon.

I stayed in the Amphitheatre and the square, long enough to see the amphitheater and nearby streets that still retains narrow alleys, cobbled stones and colors in some businesses, offices, departments. Its streets because they mint be held on Valentine's Day hearts were decorated in bright red.

Then proceeded to address Piazza Erbe, coming to this very lively and proceeded to Viita Giulietta's house (another reason for writing) the Lamberti Tower, House of Romeo, the Arche Scaligere.

Once seen these places, I went to Corso Santa Anastasia by Anastasia, where I went to the Duomo and piazza.

Parquet Flooring Installing Floating O

To install a laminate floor and hardwood flooring it is best to hire a professional installer, as this can solve any unforeseen or complication and offer a warranty on the work done.

If you still want to install have to follow the manufacturer's installation recommendations and a set of guidelines or advice to be considered for proper installation of the platform.

Materials Needed

The materials needed are tables or parquet laminate flooring, under floor (thermal insulating foam roll and / or anti-noise that is placed between the stage and the old pavement), baseboard, nails, silicone coating substances, boards transition, if necessary.

On steps: Tables (pallet), profiles of stairs to the nose of the step, foam tape to stick the table at the step (in this case the ground has no insulating base, the table is attached to the ground.) Silicone coating substances, for beauty shots.

Tools

The tools needed for proper installation of platform are: miter saw, jig saw, hammer, a meter, a square, a cutter and a pencil. In addition we need a mounting kit pallets of the same brand as the tables (to avoid incompatibilities). This kit usually includes a plastic plug to hit on him with the hammer, wedges to separate the tables from the wall and a strip blades for tables.

Calculation of Material to Buy

Land and under-floor insulation: To calculate the materials needed to install a floating platform or a floating parquet is essential to know the superficietotal in m2. (Square meters) of the area to install either a home, shop or any other room.

The amount of groundwater necessary stage and will equal the square footage + 10% extra for cuts and waste.

Plinth: To calculate the necessary meters baseboard, just the walls to be measured will put skirting.

1. Acclimation of the sheets. Importantly, before installation the boards must remain at least 48 hours to adapt to the conditions of temperature and humidity of the room where they will be installed. Ideally, the room temperature exceeds 17 º C and humidity between 50% and 70%. Packages must be closed.

2. Clean the area and eliminate any irregularities. Make sure the soil is completely dry. If there are slopes greater than 3 mm in 1 m should be equated with paste pre-leveling.

3. Lowered gates and fences. When installing laminate or parquet flooring will raise a few millimeters ground level so you should lower the gates and fences. To calculate the height of the door, you put a table on the platform chosen on a piece of insulating blanket by the door, this is the height of your new floor. Check the door and frame or frame with a pencil, pick up the door and cut or rebájala where is the mark and repeat the cut on the door frame to fit under the floor. This way you ensure that the doors do not cause marks and normally open without touching the ground. If your doors have metal fences can not cut them so you have to cut the fence of a table leaving 3 mm stage. clearance for expansion of the soil. This margin should be filled with silicone after installation is complete.

4. Extending the insulation blanket or covering the whole surface underground installation in a margin of 10 to 15 cm. to reach the walls. The basement insulation should always extend perpendicular to the orientation in which the tables will be placed. Usually the manufacturers recommend that the tables are placed perpendicular to the window or natural light to enter the room but this may vary according to taste or preference in each case. It is very important to extend the insulation strips not mount on other as this generates a significant drop once the floor is installed.

5. To place the slats or boards it is best to start with the wall opposite the door of the room.

- The first row of tables is special. With the saw must remove the side "macho" or system of tongue and groove side click and it should be placed against the wall. The first row of planks should be placed approximately 5 mm from the wall leaving room for expansion, this is very important that the soil will not deform with changes in temperature and humidity. To maintain the margin expansion that we use wedges usually come in the manufacturer's installation kit. If not we can use a piece of wood the right thickness. After placing the first table is to continue engaging the tables from left to right to complete the first row remembering to remove the side "macho" click system that is against the wall. Once we reach the lateral wall have to cut the last board to fit snugly leaving room for expansion of 5 mm, with the side wall.

- The second row and the others. There are two ways to begin the second row of tables. The first is to start with the last table left over from the previous row, in which case we must remember not to remove all the male side of the last table, but only the piece that we use in the first row, so that we serve the remainder for the second line of tables in which I need the male-female union here. The second option is the simplest, is simply to start with an entire table rows or table with a half turn. Every time we put a table we can tap from the front and side so that the click system fits perfect. We recommend using a rubber mallet and plastic wad usually included in the kit assembly to avoid damaging the edges of the blade. Continue the same operation to cover the entire surface of the room.

6. Remove cuñas.Una After placement of all tables must withdraw all wedges that kept the expansion joint and cut the ground protruding from the sides.

7. Placing the baseboard. To place the baseboard it is best to use steel nails as thin as possible but long enough to reach deep into the wall and firmly hold the baseboard. You must put a nail every 30 or 40 cm. always pressing hard against the baseboard and the wall floor to make it in the right place. To finish nails should be covered with colored silicone and optionally also seal the joints between the baseboard and the stage and / or between the baseboard and the wall.

8. Transition joints. The transition joints should be placed between two different floor or by example, when we went to the bathroom or the kitchen and had a laminated flooring or ceramic tiles to level and beautify the union. These are usually metal or the color of the stage. To put the guide should be screwed to the floor right between the floor and snap on the board or transition profile in the directory. It is advisable to follow the instructions of each manufacturer.

In short, these are the steps to follow:

Check the existing soil. The product chosen must be suitable for use and area to which it is intended. Clean the installation and leveling. Lowering the gates and fences. Extend bajosuelo. Place the planks or boards, leaving the corresponding expansion. Remove the wedges and trim the excess bajosuelo. Place the baseboard and transition joints

Wood - A Little History

The two main methods of construction used worldwide today are: log houses and wooden prefabricated houses lightweight fabric. By the industrialization, use the metal structure of steel. Combining wood materials, steel and concrete or mortar.

The log houses represent the oldest building style. These were the typical Scandinavian house, Russians and people from other parts of Northern Europe.

The settlers who migrated to the new continent, South Africa, New Zealand and Australia, built their homes with this method. Where there was wood, as in Asia which is also used wood and bamboo as traditional construction system.

At first log houses were made of logs stacked horizontally and assembled at the corners of the building. When the first sawmills, builders began to saw the logs by both sides, to optimize the use of raw materials and to standardize the measurements of the material.

Although the lumber, new methods and the emergence of new building materials, construction of log homes has not disappeared, but on the contrary, it has diversified over the years. The builders of these houses use modern sophisticated numerical control machines.

Currently log houses are differentiated according to the following classes:

Wooden houses - Prefabricated natural logs: The oldest method, but as valued as a stone wall. Wooden houses - Prefabricated brushed log: Includes numerous forms and dimensions. Wooden houses - Prefabricated turned logs: Modern version of natural log houses. They can be straight or turning logs with taper turning. Wooden houses - Prefabricated log and the various methods: vertical trunks, logs and imitations of mixed methods.

The slight-framed prefabricated houses have their origins in the nineteenth century. This technique is the result of the need to quickly build new buildings, and the availability of industrial building materials and standardized. The structure is composed of three distinct components, each with its particular function: framing, cladding and coating.

This method makes it possible to build multi-storey buildings, great diversity in the finishes and knows no limitations on the imagination of the architect in the design of the building.

Currently 60-80% of all homes being built in countries like Finland, Sweden, Austria and the United States. Also in Australia, are wooden, and most of them are light-framed buildings.
