OBS

A public network developed by Canadian Heritage as a virtual space for Canadians to connect in dialogue about Canada’s theme at Expo 2005, Wisdom of Diversity, and other themes related to Expo 2005.

OBS

At the heart of the Interactive Network is a synthesis of technologies that connect the Canada Pavilion, Cyber Explorer modules in Canada and Japan and home-based Internet users. There are two main entry points to the Interactive Network : 1. Cyber Explorer stations both in Canada Pavilion and in participating Canadian museums. 2. Internet connections(Schools and home users). Through these access points, users can explore virtually the Canadian landscape and witness the flow of ideas, images and stories. The Canada I-Net also employs live video feeds connecting Canadian locations with Japan and contains a virtual 3D world called "Virtual Canada". The results is an international dialogue on Canada poised to break traditional communication barriers.

OBS

Réseau public mis au point par le ministère du Patrimoine Canadien dans le but d'offrir aux Canadiens et aux Canadiennes un espace virtuel où ils pourront dialoguer sur le thème du Canada à Expo 2005, La sagesse de la diversité, et sur d'autres sujets liés à l'exposition.

OBS

Le cœur du Réseau interactif est une synthèse de technologies qui relient le pavillon du Canada, les modules des explorateurs virtuels entre le Canada et le Japon, et les foyers des internautes. Les deux principaux points d'accès au Réseau interactif sont : 1. Les stations d'explorateurs virtuels installés au pavillon du Canada et dans les musées canadiens participants. 2. Les branchements Internet (dans les écoles et à la maison). Les usagers pourront, par l'intermédiaire de ces points d'accès, explorer virtuellement le territoire canadien et suivre les courants d'idées, les images et l'histoire. Le Réseau-I Canada fait appel à des liens vidéos en direct pour relier différents endroits du Canada et le Japon et comprend le «Canada virtuel», un monde tridimensionnel. Le résultat de cette technologie est dialogue international sur le Canada au-delà des barrières de la communication traditionnelle.

DEF

A square straight-line fancy shape; has 2 corner girdles, 2 breaks on the crown and 1 girdle break with 4 or 8 mains on the pavilion; has a pointed culet.

CONT

The radiant cut is a beautiful combination of the classic emerald cut and the sparkle of the round brilliant. The radiant cut is similar to the princess cut but is usually (though not always) a more rectangular outline and has blocked corners like those of an emerald cut. The cutting is a combination of the step-cutting of the emerald-cut diamond with some triangular faceting of the brilliant cut. The radiant cut is dramatic as a solitaire but also looks great paired with side stones such as baguettes, trillions, or princess shapes. A radiant-cut stone should be set with special prongs to hold the blocked corners securely.
