Yoga Pose For Meralgia Paresthetica

Ciclovía Know Viña del Mar waterfront

By Otto Lührs


least subjective impressions as possible about the work on the waterfront Viña:

My comments clearly did not arise in a conformist approach "is what you get "" better than nothing "," at least something "or" better than I had before, "
My criticism based on the assumption that the works for the movement of cyclists, should be addressed at least, if no more, the same seriousness and quality standards in design and construction, which made for motorized vehicles.
Regarding the new section, I have several comments:

1, uncoordinated with the department of Bath and Ornament:
- asphalt frequently wet by watering
- garden hoses crossed diagonally, an obstacle that can easily cause falls
- cars toiletries (such Green wheels) placed on the bike path
- no pruning palm leaves hanging at the height of the face

2 nd design creates unnecessary crossings into and out of parking. Perfectly
the route of the bike path could have been done between the parking and the beach, but the design was repeated the first tranche, which places the bike lane between parking and sidewalk east, leaving no room for cars waiting to leave or enter the parking lot without blocking bike path. This design flaw is what we see Mr Osvaldo Urrutia (Director SECPLAN), the section at the sundial Guns-Museum, who welcomed the comments and said the revised. Not only did not correct the design, but it repeated the error in the new section. Interestingly I think the appropriate authority of a formal explanation for this absurd design, based on technical reasons, if any.

3 the physical implementation of bike lanes (design and construction) SOCIAL suffers from an implementation (promotion and education of best practices to users and pedestrians)
As a result, normal foot traffic, including cars bus, which more than discomfort, should raise concerns about potential accidents will occur at any time.)

4 th movement of "Bicycle mosquitoes" in the bike lane.
The truth is I do not know the current regulations to these devices, but I think infamous see (and hear them and smell them) going through the bike path, and also dangerous

5 º uncoordinated SECPLAN - DIRECTION OF TRAFFIC this approach it as a conclusion to the evidence that is tangible in the daily life of the streets viñamarinos gives the impression that Mr. Osvaldo Arias Urrutia and Alamiro not know. The Traffic Division Viña del Mar, unfortunately at work excludes non-motorized transit. Whose function is the proper use of spaces for movement of persons, however is not fulfilling this role in the way of pedestrians and cyclists, and coastal bike path that is a sign of carelessness (I daresay " negligence ", but Mrs. Mayor jumped up aghast when you use the word ugly the last time we met with her following the EXCLUSION of cyclists in the traffic plan for the work of the extension 4 tracks of salt - Renaissance, remember?)

that for now, Otto

Can Cats Have Sudafed

my sorrow for the embalming of

By Otto Lührs

usually to make kinds of Environmental Education, Ecology, NDR, etc., I mention to my students how crucial it is to generate bond between man and nature through meaningful experiences in natural areas, because "I wanted to take care, they want it lived (anonymous)"

experiment This principle is particularly strong in the case of the Rio Baker, whose case with the construction of hidroléctricas affects me deeply, because the love I have for that wonder in the wake of a very special time lived in it.
I want to share a fragment of the log of my cycling, February-March 2002 between Puerto Aysen and Villa O'Higgins, which reflects the time:


Day 7, Thursday 28/02/1902 AVS: 11 km / hr 55 kms.
Emerald Lake Refuge lookout "Vagabond"
are the 22: 00 pm, and am on the lookout shelter Tramp, dominating from above the Baker River valley in the area where the infant was born way to Tortel. This is a shelter-gazebo built by the soldiers at the end of the slope, and the place is simply the most beautiful thing I've seen in my life.
Whoever reads this, maybe myself in a bit longer, then ask him to slow, giving time to the imagination and feeling to recreate, as far as possible this time.
The shelter is large, octagonal-shaped southern barbecue, wood and a large pillar in the center. It has opened windows to the side of the valley and covered with plastic to the hill, where the wind attacks. Down side, there is a balcony with a large tree and on the other hand, a kitchen area with stove, benches, firewood and charcoal.
Upon arrival, I looked where the floorboards were more couples, placed the body of carp lying down between two seats over my mat and sack. From there to the kitchen, tie meat with soy sauce and pepper ... pure tea ...... my view is limited by a chain of snowy peaks lost in the horizon, soon, through which oddly glittering clouds this time of night, I announce the early appearance of the moon ... between my refuge and those mountains, swift and noisy runs the largest river in Chile, is the serpent enlightened Baker as breaks in the darkness of the night making their way in zigzag path between the coyhues forest lining the valley. As if to mimic the river, is drawn over this a thin fog that seeks to make me believe that this is a river that has its own roof ... some stars are afraid to appear between the whole sky almost clear, while a cool breeze from behind me ... and sounds, one vital component of any place that can never be caught by a picture is formed by the powerful roar of the river deep and Baker; by Vagabundo river that smaller giddy runs through the gorge along the refuge and a murmur of frogs croaking envelope giving rise to such a symphony that only nature can create ... I'm happy, living a magical moment. "
