Innsbruck is the provincial capital of Tyrol. Located in the broad valley between high mountains, the so-called North Chain in the Karwendel Alps. It has twice hosted the Winter Olympics making it not only an interesting and beautiful situated city but the largest ski resort in the alps. It is located both close to Munich and northern Italy making it a must see alpine destination.
Innsbruck became the capital of Tyrol in 1429 and in the 15th century the city became a centre of European politics and culture as emperor Maximilian I moved the imperial court to Innsbruck in the 1490s. Many old buildings from the middle ages and modern times survived in the heart of Innsbrucks old town.
The city is well known for its sporting opportunities, especially alpine sports, as it is in the Alps and surrounded by mountains. Several ski resorts are situated inside the city territory or within short distance. Innsbruck was one of the centers of snowboard boom in the 1990's and the derived distinct subculture endured until today. The population of skateboarders, snowboarders and people alike is therefore above average and nothing unusual to the people.
This culture is also celebrated by a lot of events in and around Innsbruck especially in the winterseason, attracting (predominantly young) people from all around the world. There are two universities and several colleges in Innsbruck, with over 25,000 students altogether, (including a significant Italian population) making the city's nightlife very lively.
From the main station (Hauptbahnhof) to the city center is a relatively short and enjoyable 10 to 15 minute walk. Walk out of the Hauptbahnhof, cross the street at the train station cross walk, turn to your right, and go down to the next street to your left. Walk on this street until Maria-Theresien Strasse, then turn right toward the city center. Taking this street all the way leads to the pedestrian zone and the Golden Roof.

Breves imagens de Innsbruck, Áustria, em JAN2017
Breves imagens de Innsbruck em janeiro de 2017.
Local belíssimo. Lamentável que alguns aos visitar a Áustria se limite a Viena.
Principais locais mostrados:
1. Vista do centro histórico, que dispensa comentários.
2. Imagens do Nordkette (as imagens de montanha na neve).
3. Alpen Zoo.
A Visita deve ser conjugada com o Nordekette. Ir especialmente não faz sentido. Recomendo ir depois de visitar as montanhas.
Pessoas com mobilidade reduzida não devem ir. Muita subida e descida. Crianças cansadas também não recomendo.
4. Hofkirche.
Cuidado que fica meio escondida a entrada;
Se entra por um museu ao lado. Como não sabíamos, quase deixamos de visitar.
Abstraindo as belezas naturais, foi o que mais gostei de Innsbruck.
5. Rio Inn.
6. Cathedral of St. James (Dom zu St. Jakob)
7. The Golden Roof (Goldenes Dachl)
8. Town Tower (Stadtturm)
9. RathausGalerien
10. St. Anna's Column (Annasaule)
11. Triumphal Arch (Triumphpforte)
12. Spitalskirche
13. Ottoburg
14. Jesuit Church
15. Servite Church
16. Schloss Ambras. Este é meio afastado, mas merece a visita. Muito interessante.
17. Por fim, tem o Swarovski Crystal Worlds. Este último é de interesse limitado.
Recomenda-se ir apenas se houver mais de um dia disponível em Innsbruck ou se a pessoa for um fanático por cristais.
Se perde muito tempo chegando lá e tem relativamente pouca coisa para ver. As imagens imponentes da parte externa e de uma ou outra coisa interna são tudo. Não há mais do que isso.

Catholic higher education | Wikipedia audio article
This is an audio version of the Wikipedia Article:
Catholic higher education
Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Catholic higher education includes universities, colleges, and other institutions of higher education privately run by the Catholic Church, typically by religious institutes. Those tied to the Holy See are specifically called pontifical universities.
By definition, Catholic canon law states that A Catholic school is understood to be one which is under control of the competent ecclesiastical authority or of a public ecclesiastical juridical person, or one which in a written document is acknowledged as Catholic by the ecclesiastical authority (Can. 803). Although some schools are deemed Catholic because of their identity and a great number of students enrolled are Catholics, it is also stipulated in canon law that no school, even if it is in fact Catholic, may bear the title 'Catholic school' except by the consent of the competent ecclesiastical authority (Can. 803 §3).
The Dominican Order was the first order instituted by the Church with an academic mission, founding studia conventualia in every convent of the order, and studia generalia at the early European universities such as the University of Bologna and the University of Paris. In Europe, most universities with medieval history were founded as Catholic. Many of them were rescinded to government authourities in the Modern era. Some, however, remained Catholic, while new ones were established alongside the public ones. The Catholic Church is still the largest non-governmental provider of higher education in the world. Many of them are still internationally competitive. According to the census of the Vatican's Congregation for Catholic Education, the total number of Catholic universities and higher education institutions around the world is 1,358. On the other hand, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops counts it at 1,861. The Catholic religious order with the highest number of universities around the world today is the Society of Jesus with 114.Like other private schools, Catholic universities and colleges are generally nondenominational, in that they accept anyone regardless of religious affiliation, nationality, ethnicity, or civil status, provided the admission or enrollment requirements and legal documents are submitted, and rules and regulations are obeyed for a fruitful life on campus. However, non-Catholics, whether Christian or not, may or may not participate in otherwise required campus activities, particularly those of a religious nature.
