GARMIN'S VARIA VISION

The first in-sight cycling display from Garmin, Varia Vision enhances your road awareness by putting the cycling information you want right where you want it — in your line of sight. The lightweight display attaches to either side of sunglasses and relays information directly from your compatible device. Now you won’t lose focus while trying to nail your targets for a workout, find the next turn or stay aware of cars approaching from behind.

The first thing to know about the Varia Vision is that it’s more accurately described as a ‘remote display’ than a standalone unit. It is essentially a secondary monitor for your Garmin Edge. Said differently: It doesn’t have GPS in it, nor does it have the ability to directly talk to all your existing sensors..

Varia Vision displays up to 4 crucial data fields plus clear, color-coded graphic displays at any given time. This allows you to view information such as your heart rate, power and speed and still keep your eyes peeled for potential hazards in front of you. Varia Vision can even help you find your way with detailed navigation prompts, complete with street names, directional arrows and distance to turn. Varia Vision vibration alerts let you know when you’re approaching segments, completing laps, leaving a workout zone or receiving a call/text. Plus, if you have it paired with Varia rearview radar, you’ll gain valuable peace of mind knowing when vehicles are approaching from behind. It has also Advanced Technology in a Featherweight Design. Varia Vision in-sight cycling display weighs just 28 grams, so it’s never cumbersome to wear. A built-in ambient light sensor ensures that Varia Vision data is always easy to see, even in direct sunlight. A glove-friendly touch panel makes it simple to switch between displays. Plus, it features an 8-hour battery life and weather-resistant design so it can endure even the longest and harshest rides.

It’s probably no surprise that Garmin is getting into the heads up display market. The category is still quite young, especially on the sport side of things. Right now the only released competitors in sport are the Recon Jet and 4iiii units. The mount system is awesome. If nothing else, Garmin can usually be trusted to come out with brilliantly simple mounts that just work. This would be one of them. It’s super tiny, yet seems remarkably stable. If the display pod fell off this mount, it’s likely because you’ve face planted into a shrubbery. The crispness and contrast of the display. Having tried every heads up display on and not yet on the market, I’m more than familiar with many having washed out colors. This doesn’t. It’s surprisingly sharp. Out of the way yet still visible. A key aspect that some other HUD’s struggle with. Of course, it’s just one (sorta rainy) ride. It’s entirely possible I could do a second ride and the thing causes me to run into a Metro bus. But not everything sticks out to me as positive, notably two specific items. It’s expensive. As well as the technical execution on this product, it’s rather pricey at $399, as that’s in the ballpark of what most other fully capable GPS-inclusive HUD’s cost.

Most notably known as the Philippines flower festival, Panagbenga held annually in Baguio city. Known as the summer capital of Philippines, the Baguio city considered as one of the most popular tourist attraction.  If there’s one festival that catch our attention more than others through the years, it’s the Panagbenga Festival in Baguio City. During the event, locals come out of their respective home to participate to the blooming of the new season’s flowers all around the town. The festival also implying the local’s rising from the earthquakes that devastated the Philippines biggest island in 1990.

Festivals are not original to the Filipino’s taste. In every province, there’s always a celebration, lively music, plentiful dishes, very much alive clothes, and right in the middle of it all is us, he Filipinos being our liveliest celebration loving selves.

In this parades, you will see in the exhibit is the vibrant costumes, mainly inspired by flowers themselves. In other words, you will see flowers walking on the road. There are two major parades event on the streets of Baguio. First is the Opening parade, is held on the 1st of February and is taken as a signal of the start of Panagbenga festival. Floats of volunteers participated in the opening parade to witness the start of Panagbenga festival. Secondly, the Grand Float Parade organize at Session Rd. to the Melvin Jones Grounds, this parade is held on the fourth Sunday of February. The parade begins with a spectacular view of petals showering along the side of the session road with the marching bands following.

The most eminent feature of this festival, the costumes. Although the flowers are the highly dominant element of the festivity, some people still choose a costume that featured the most popular products of the city including strawberries, woven baskets and a broom known as “Walis Tambo” made of local plant material. People truly follow this theme during all the seven days of the festival. They put all the spring colors in dressing, in face painting, and decorations. Theme shows that harmony and enthusiasm of a festival. To capture the fun of festival, everyone strictly follows the theme and colors of the festival.

No festival can ever be completed without the addition of food served, and same is true for Panagbenga festival. Strawberry Taho, a specialty of the Panagbenga festival this dessert not only portrays the regional dimension of the Baguio city but also with its bright colors showcase the Panagbenga festival.

Panagbenga is also famous for its souvenirs and so does the people of Philippines for their creativity. However, the Panagbenga festival is the ultimate display of the creativity, culture, and rituals of the Filipinos. The dresses wore by the people during the festival, the decorations all portray the cultural heritage of the people of Philippines. Furthermore, this creativity is most notably seen in the souvenirs on display in trade fair and bazaar. Various souvenirs display at Panagbenga festival for selling purpose includes t-shirts, necklaces, scarves and much more.

Weaknesses:

- However, Pitch Perfect 3 may not be a wise choice if you intend to be a business-minded who prefers to watch business related movies such as The Insider, The Social Network, etc.

- Pitch Perfect 3 may not appeal to certain audiences as it contains a few scenes where it shows a packcrime subplot, an underdeveloped romance, a weird flirtation, and more.

- Pitch Perfect fans aren't expecting for explosion and kidnapping thing which made Pitch Perfect 3 fails because it tries to do too much while not focusing on what people love.

- The director, Trish Sie's second film (after Step Up: All in) made musical moments strong but she's not able to master the tonal shifts which would challenge even a more experienced director.

- In addition, adding a genre like the Bellas fighting a crime lord but with none of the skill or smooth transitions over the screenplay will make fans scratch their heads while watching.
