Routinely considered one of the best rooftop discos in the old city, almost every night of the week, you can find electronic music, fire shows with reasonable entrance prices and great drinks. This club is three floors of music and dancing, filled with so many other people who want to have a good time. Thursdays are their salsa night, and both locals and tourists alike come here to dance, enjoy the music and enjoy the ambiance that Cartagena nightlife brings. If salsa is your jam, but Cafe Havana is too expensive or too long of a wait, then consider Crazy Salsa as a backup option to scratch the itch. If you have good negotiation skills, you may even be able to get in at a cheaper cost. On weekends there can be a long line to get it, and entrance fees are slightly more than other clubs, but you should visit at least once for the experience. If you like salsa music, you need to come to this club as the live bands play salsa every night and do it in a club environment that feels exclusive and special.Ĭelebrities and politicians have visited Café Havana for the slightly touristy feeling built upon by a traditional style and traditional Colombian decor. This club is one of the most expensive and one of the coolest clubs in Cartagena. Enjoy this brightly-colored nightclub at least to appreciate the best of Colombia nightlife in Cartagena. The music ranges, but traditional Caribbean music called Champeta and reggae are always on the menu. ![]() From mixed drinks to cold beer Barzuto is one of those spots. The locals know where the good spots are and what they offer. Unlike many other clubs, there are drink options that suit a wide variety of budgets here. The Barzuto Social Club is a fantastic option if you need to dance and you can’t afford to throw a lot of money at it. Not all of the best nightclubs in Cartagena a re expensive or have long lines you have to wait in. Best Nightlife in Cartagena Barzuto Social Club Maybe you’ll find your new favorite that’s not on this list and make it the top 10. With so many out there, let’s touch on the top 9. It’s not just tourists either the locals are visiting these spots as well. Their clubs are second to none, with various musical options on offer and an atmosphere that ranges from cozy and dark to bright and pumping until the early hours. But where do you go to do that?Ĭartagena has many different bars, clubs, strip clubs, and restaurants that truly exemplify what Colombia and Latin America have to offer to tourism and party-goers. You’ve come to this city to experience the music and choosing the right club to visit can mean a night to remember alone or with friends for all the right reasons.Īfter a day of sightseeing, eating local cuisine, and shopping, it’s time to cap the nightlife in Cartagena, enjoy of drinks and a great view. Stop in to check it out, but it's likely not going to be the height of your evening.Hot temperatures, cold beer, and loud, energetic dance music all define some of the best nightclubs in Cartagena. They are not doing themselves any favors by closing the downstairs space. But with a number of bustling rooftop clubs nearby, Tu Candela feels outdated and overwhelmed by the compeition. Like all nightspots, things can be hit-or-miss depending on crowds, tourism levels, other events, the experience of the staff, etc. ![]() A reasonably good DJ is set up in a booth out of sight (which is bad, you want your DJ being able to watch the crowd and adjust music to match reactions). The first night the bartender knew exactly how to make a mojito, the second night the guy didn't have a clue (didn't even muddle). Mojitos are 20K pesos, other cocktails similarly priced. They don't carry domestic beer, only one US beer. Like most nightclubs in the Latin world, go late (an hour later than your consider late in the US). The Wednesday doorman said that the downstairs opens on weekends (but also implied it would be open on Thursday, which it wasn't). Quite a change from the bustling lower level I remember from a years-ago visit. The second night at the same time there was barely anybody in attendance. The first night that room was packed (not quiet standing-room only but crowded enough that walking across the room meant bumping dancers along the way). During back-to-back weeknight visits (Wed / Thu), the downstairs was closed, leaving only a small second-story room (one bar) running. Classic hotspot Tu Candela near the famous main entry into the walled city retains its charm, but is no longer the hot place to go. ![]()

And the health care sector has seen much of the strike activity, with unions and their members complaining about pay and staffing shortages impacting the quality of care.įrom the start of 2022 through August of this year, the Bureau of Labor Statistics has tracked 42 work stoppages of 1,000 or more strikers. The tentative agreement comes during heightened union activity in the United States. According to its website, Kaiser Permanente has 12.7 million members and operates 39 hospitals and 622 medical offices. Unlike a fee-for-service health care model, in which doctors and other providers are paid for each service performed, Kaiser Permanente patients or their employers pay a membership fee to access Kaiser Permanente’s wide range of health care services. Kaiser Permanente is one of the nation’s largest not-for-profit health providers. Nearly 4,000 members of the United Auto Workers union went on strike at Mack Trucks early Monday after membership there overwhelmingly rejected an 11th hour deal reached a week earlier. It is not uncommon in recent years for rank-and-file union members to reject tentative deals reached between union negotiators and management. If they vote “no,” another strike could still happen. Rank-and-file members of the union will get to vote on the tentative labor agreement with their employer. ![]() It also represents hospital support staff, including maintenance and janitorial staff as well as food services. The union coalition represents 40% of Kaiser Permanente’s non-physician workforce and includes a wide range of medical workers, including EMTs, X-ray technicians, nursing assistants and respiratory care practitioners. According to the coalition, Kaiser Permanente management agreed to raise wages by 21% over four years in all Kaiser locations and establish a new health care worker minimum wage: $25 per hour in California and $23 per hour in other states where Kaiser operates.Īt a news briefing with Su and representatives from Kaiser Permanente and the coalition of unions, Kaiser Permanente said it had agreed to accelerate hiring, furthering its commitment to address a critical staffing shortage that some employees said contributed to feelings of burnout.ĭuring the briefing, Dave Regan, the president of SEIU-UHW, the largest union in the coalition, said that the tentative agreement includes an annual bonus program for unionized workers tied to the success of two metrics: the number of patients who receive preventative vaccinations, like the flu vaccine, and the amount that total blood pressure is reduced among Kaiser Permanente patients. While a full picture of the tentative deal was not immediately available, some details were released Friday. But the coalition of unions was threatening an eight-day strike next month with even more workers walking out if a new deal was not reached by October 31. The strike last week lasted only three days, the length of time it had been scheduled to run. Labor Secretary Su,” it said in its tweet. We are thankful for the instrumental involvement of Acting U.S. “We are excited to have reached a tentative agreement with the frontline health care workers of the union coalition. The company also thanked Su its tweet about the deal. “We are thankful for the instrumental support of Acting US Labor Secretary Julie Su.” “The frontline healthcare workers of the Coalition of Kaiser Permanente Unions are excited to have reached a tentative agreement with Kaiser Permanente,” the union coalition said on X. Kaiser Permanente reached a tentative deal with the unions representing 75,000 employees, following the largest-ever health care strike in US history. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() And there's nothing wrong with that at all, of course, but that's just what it felt like. Of course, I'm not trying to suggest, that even on its own merits, that it's a great movie and, realistically speaking, this feels more like a TV movie for Nickelodeon than anything else. Of course, it doesn't even come close to some of Pixar's or Dreamworks' best, but it's fast-paced and it's got so much shtick that a lot of them ended up hitting while also having a lot of misses, so, yes, I ended up enjoying this. And, yes, you saw that rating right, I actually enjoyed this movie. So it's understandable that the movie took a while to come out. But I do realize that films are difficult to make and there's negotiations, the writing and revising of the script, pre-production, the actual production, post-production etc, etc, etc. If this movie came out in 2013-14, it would've been even more successful, because the app was still at its peak of success. I will say, however, that the movie is a couple of years too late in terms of cashing in on the massive success of the game. The app literally has no story, so the film could really be just about anything, so it actually made perfect sense in that you didn't have a pre-established universe that you could do very little with like in other game franchises, like Doom, Halo or Mass Effect. A lot of people wondered why you'd make a movie based on a smartphone/tablet app, but it really made perfect sense. Maybe saying that's the wrong term to use, since it was still popular, but it was on the downward slope of its popularity. And this was at the time when the game's popularity was already past its peak. I played it for that period of time and I erased it and I've never played it again. I remember going through a phase like two years ago where I got hooked on the game for, say, 2 weeks. That's how popular the game was at its peak. I think that 85% of people who have ever owned a smartphone and tablet, at one point or another, has played Angry Birds. As the swine begin to get under his skin, Red joins forces with Chuck and Bomb to investigate the real reason behind their mysterious arrival. Red becomes even more agitated when his feathered brethren welcome green pigs to their island paradise. His temperament leads him to anger management class, where he meets fellow misfits Chuck (Josh Gad) and Bomb. Flightless birds lead a mostly happy existence, except for Red (Jason Sudeikis), who just can't get past the daily annoyances of life. ![]() ![]() Aside from controlling notifications and other apps, users can also transfer files between devices.

This simple but effective setup worked better than the Zoom Freak 1 had. Gone is the Double-Stacked Heel Zoom and the Nike Zoom Freak 2 brings us back to a more traditional setup which is the Forefoot Zoom Unit. To add on to that, there is also a relatively stable base and even though the outsole is decoupled, the heel-to-toe transition seems seamless. ![]() The Zoom Freak 2 is considered a lower-cut basketball shoe, but just the way the shoe is sculpted with the midsole wrapping up the sides of the shoe, the snugness of the fit and of course the TPU Forefoot Clips, your feet don’t have anywhere to go. The Nike Zoom Freak 2 is just the perfect example. This bit of materials will not stop your from rolling your ankles, it’s just not strong enough. Usually the “High-cut” area of the shoe is made mostly of textiles, knit or any upper material, as well as foam padding. Usually people will associate support with high-cut shoes and that low-cut shoes will make it easier for you to roll your ankle. ![]() At the heel, the Internal Heel Counter and the Midsole structure keeps the foot in place. On top of the sleek shoe structure, the lacing system has a panel on the medial side that made the shoe feel really secure from midfoot forward. Lockdown was really great on the Nike Zoom Freak 2 much like last year’s Freak 1. That said, the shoe does fits true-to-size and wide footers don’t really need to worry with these as the lacing system seems quite forgiving. That is really surprising because from a visual standpoint, the Freak 2 does look a little sleeker compared to last year’s model. Currently most notable player who rock these are the Antetokounmpo brothers: Giannis, Thanasis (Milwaukee Bucks) and Kostas (Los Angeles Lakers)įit wise, the Nike Zoom Freak 2 still is a pretty snug shoe but not as much as the Zoom Freak 1. In the NBA, not many players have been wearing these as compared to the Zoom Freak 1. Maybe they reused the tooling? I guess we’ll never know. One weird thing I noticed is that the heel portion of the midsole looks a bit familiar… It kind of reminds me of the Nike PG 1. For me, they are definitely more for on-the-court than off-the-court. In terms of looks though, I would prefer the Freak 1s more as the Freak 2 does look a little like a running shoe. However, from a feel standpoint, this year’s model does seem more premium compared to the mesh used in the Zoom Freak 1. Materials on the Nike Zoom Freak 2 are still mostly textiles and synthetics. The traction also looks far more promising and I expect the Nike Zoom Freak 2 to play really well. What I do appreciate is that the Zoom Unit is now at the Forefoot instead of the Double-Stacked Heel Zoom in the Freak 1. The Nike Zoom Freak 2 has a rather different concept compared to its predecessor with a more traditional midsole and the shoe structure looking even sleeker than before. Well… the Reverse Swoosh that I have grown to like is now gone, and we are back to the normal iteration of the Nike Logo. ![]() ![]() Your HandBrake settings like bit rate (most important), resolution, frame rate, MP4 codec, etc. If you are dealing with a Bluray, then the best HandBrake settings could be 1080p and higher.
