Kinesiology students Jordan McIntire, Brock Winters, Joy DeBaun and Chad Simmons think you should take a vacation with Camp Brosius. TCEM Faculty Amanda Cecil's family is embarking on the same path that Amanda indicates: “Camp Brosius has been THE place where my family has disconnected from the daily grind of work, school, and life, and reconnected with each other. Amanda's cousin April goes straight to the point: "My daughter will no longer love me if we don't go to Camp Brosius!".

Mobile technology is used in more places every day. As of this semester, the school's kinesiology classrooms are no exception. In what faculty members of the Department of Kinesiology call "a natural evolution of technology," new mobile data collection kits, including an Android tablet and various kinesiology sensors, are now available to students in the. Through faculty surveys and graduate exit interviews, we determined that to be most effective, the classroom technology must not only be consistent with what today's working professionals are using in the field, but must be consistent with the technology that students use in everyday life - tablets, smartphones and apps," says Mark Urtel, undergraduate program director and associate professor, Department of Kinesiology. Portable and easy to use in gyms, recreation centers and training facilities, mobile technology is a perfect fit for real-time on-site data collection, as kinesiology students are quickly discovering Monitors and sensors connect wirelessly to Android tablet devices via Bluetooth technology. the appropriate software (app), students can record changes in blood pressure, for example over a long period of time, such as during an exercise class Data is then exported from the tablet to Excel where students can graphically demonstrate how blood pressure changes over time with exercise Graphs and summary statistics can then be placed into PowerPoint presentations to share findings with classmates and faculty.

A few years older, hunger may be the only thing that can bring that same child inside after a morning of games, looking for lunch. Later that night, he may be involved in a jam that lasts for hours when he is forced to eat dinner when not. hungry If somewhere over time you've lost these strong determinants of eating or not eating, don't worry, you can get them back.

A fun fact about Piran is that they limit the number of cars into town. There is a huge parking lot right outside the entrance to the city and they offer a free shuttle bus to the various locations. A must-do on your trip is a visit to the Church of Saint George, which sits atop the hill overlooking the city and bay. The view is simply spectacular. To get there you meander through narrow cobbled streets and staircases that are wonderful to explore, plus Piran has an aquarium, several galleries and museums, a few smaller squares and other shops. One shop not to be missed is Piranske Soline – which has some of the best salted chocolates made from salt mined in the Sečovlje salt flats in nearby Portorož.
Piran, Slovenia: sister city to Indianapolis
Located on Piran Bay and the Adriatic Sea, this tourist-friendly city of around 17,000 inhabitants is a mix of Italian and Slovenian cultures Pirani is part peninsula, which at its tip offers incredible views of the Croatian and Italian coasts. it doesn't have a real beach, there are many piers that jut out into the water, allowing for swimming in some incredibly clear waters. Historically, Pirani is the birthplace of Giuseppe Tartini, an Italian Baroque composer and violinist. many events While I was there they had a very fun market where you can buy antiques, trinkets, jewelry and food. It's where locals and tourists mix and mingle. Consider buying salt flour, which is an excellent final salt, and of course chocolate. In addition, they offer many other items made from salt. If you have time, a trip to the flats is a wonderful experience, as it houses a Nature Park, working salt flats and a newly added spa.
I had the opportunity to travel to Piran, Slovenia in September 2013 as a member of the Indianapolis Sister City Partnership delegation, and I can truly say that it is a hidden gem. I'm not sure why I was expecting a post-cold war, dark and depressing place, but what I found was anything but Piran is a lively, active, colorful and historic city Their architecture reflects their influence not only from the Venetian Republic. but also medieval walled cities. We stayed at the Piran Hotel which was built in 1913 but was renovated in 2002, while the decor is still a little dated, the view from my room was amazing My room, like many others, faced the water, and most have balconies that allow you to watch the comings and goings of the bay or the city The hotel offers Wi-Fi, a restaurant and a cafe that has seating facing the water. They also have several spa services available on site, and the rates usually include a very nice breakfast buffet.
