How To Survive A Horse
How To Survive A Horse
The horse, a prey animal, depends on flight as its primary means of survival. Its natural predators are large animals such as cougars, wolves, or bears, so its ability to outrun these predators is critical. As humans, we need to understand their natural flightiness in order to fully understand horses.
Horses are one of the most perceptive of all domestic animals. Since they are a prey species, they must be able to detect predators. A stimulus unnoticed by humans is often cause for alarm for horses; as riders and trainers we commonly mistake this reaction for “spookiness” or bad behavior.
The horse has a very fast response time. A prey animal must react instantly to a perceived predator to be able to survive.
Horses can be desensitized from frightening stimuli. They need to learn quickly what is harmful (e.g., lion, cougar, etc.) and what is harmless (e.g., tumbleweeds, birds, a discolored rock, etc.), so they do not spend their whole lives running away.
Horses forgive, but do not forget. They especially remember bad situations! This is why it is critical to make the horse’s first training experience a positive one.
Horses categorize most experiences in one of two ways: a) something not to fear, so ignore or explore it, and b) something to fear, so flee. Therefore, when presenting anything new, the horse needs to be shown that ‘a’ is the case. Again, it is important to make all training experiences positive.
Horses are easily dominated. The horse is a herd animal where a dominance hierarchy is always established. If done correctly, human dominance can easily be established during training without causing the horse to become excessively fearful.
Horses exert dominance by controlling the movement of their peers. Horses accept dominance when: a) we or another animal cause them to move when they prefer not to, and b) we or another animal inhibit movement when they want to flee. Examples include using a round pen, longe line, or hobbles; or the more dominant horse in the field chasing the less dominant one away.
The body language of a horse is unique to the equine species. As a highly social animal, the horse communicates its emotions and intents to its herd mates through both vocalization and body language. A person handling horses needs to be able to read the horse’s body language to be an effective trainer.
The horse is a precocial species, meaning that the newborn foals are neurologically mature at birth. They are most vulnerable immediately after birth so they must be able to identify danger and flee if necessary.

How To Take Care Of A Horse
Like any companion animal, horses require care. Horses, however, need a lot more care than dogs, cats or goldfish. If you’ve always wanted a horse, it’s important to understand both the financial and time commitment required for horse ownership.
A good reference is What to Consider About Horse Ownership, which provides details on how much horses cost, what they need and other tips on raising horses. For example, you’ll need at least 1.5 of land per horse for turnout, and it must be properly fenced both to contain your horses and keep them from harm. In some parts of the country, you’ll need to keep predators such as coyotes, wolves and mountain lions out of the paddock. If you have additional questions about horse fencing, make sure to check out our electric fencing for horses guide.

SPECIAL OPS SOLDIER WITH JETPACK BOARDS SHIP IN AMAZING VIDEO HOW TO BOARD A SHIP IN STYLE.
In a new video released by jetpack maker Gravity Industries, a jetsuit-wearing special ops soldier from the Netherlands Maritime Special Operations Force can be seen boarding a ship — by flying there from a nearby pursuit vessel.
It's a spectacular demonstration of Gravity Industries' flying technology. Rather than having to pursue and approach the ship in the tailing vessel, the jetpack-enhanced soldier simply takes to the skies and effortlessly lands on the deck of the ship — in a fraction of the time boarding would have taken otherwise.

Devastating floods in Pakistan
Torrential monsoon rains have triggered the most severe flooding in Pakistan’s recent history, washing away villages and leaving around 3.4 million children in need of assistance and at increased risk of waterborne diseases, drowning and malnutrition.
Hundreds of thousands of homes have been destroyed, while many public health facilities, water systems and schools have been destroyed or damaged. Young children are living out in the open with their families, with no drinking water, no food, and no livelihood, exposed to a wide range of new flood-related risks and hazards, including from damaged buildings and drowning in floodwaters.
UNICEF is responding with the Government and partners, helping to deliver safe drinking water; lifesaving medical supplies; therapeutic food supplies; and hygiene kits to children and families. We are also establishing temporary learning centres and supporting the protection and psychosocial wellbeing of children affected by these devastating floods.
But much more is needed to ensure we can reach all families displaced by floods and help them overcome this climate disaster.

Do parallel universes exist? We might live in a multiverse.
Parallel universes are no longer just a feature of a good sci-fi story. There are now some scientific theories that support the idea of parallel universes beyond our own. However, the multiverse theory remains one of the most controversial theories in science.
Our universe is unimaginably big. Hundreds of billions, if not trillions, of galaxies (opens in new tab) spin through space, each containing billions or trillions of stars (opens in new tab). Some researchers studying models of the universe speculate that the universe's diameter could be 7 billion light-years (opens in new tab) across. Others think it could be infinite.
But is it all that's out there? Science fiction loves the idea of a parallel universe, and the thought that we might be living just one of an infinite number of possible lives. Multiverses aren't reserved for "Star Trek," "Spiderman" and "Doctor Who," though. Real scientific theory explores, and in some cases supports, the case for universes outside, parallel to, or distant from but mirroring our own.

Max Verstappen vs Sylvester Stallone
Sylvester Stallone was one of the many celebrities who were at Monza to watch the Italian Grand Prix, and while the focus was on the controversial end of the race as it came to a stop under the safety car, we were blown away by his choice of watch as he meets the winner of this weekend, Max Verstappen.
Lots of celebrities choose the most expensive timepiece they can afford, similar to their choice of cars. That’s why we see so many Lamborghinis and Mercedes G-Wagens on Instagram. They’re like Cartier of the car world and they’re boring as hell, albeit very expensive.

Roger Federer Retirement What A Career
CNN)Roger Federer has announced that he will retire from the ATP Tour and grand slams following the Laver Cup next week in London.
"I am 41 years old. I have played more than 1500 matches over 24 years. Tennis has treated me more generously than I ever would have dreamt, and now I must recognize when it is time to end my competitive career," the 20-time grand slam winner said in an Instagram post.
The last few years of Federer's career have been marred by a series of injuries, as he underwent two knee surgeries in 2020 and another after he was defeated by Hubert Hurkacz in the 2021 Wimbledon quarterfinal -- his last competitive match to date.
"As many of you know, the past three years have presented me with challenges in the form of injuries and surgeries," he said. "I've worked hard to return to full competitive form. But I also know my body's capacities and limits, and its message to me lately has been clear."

'Cosmic' and 'phantom' UFOs are all over Ukraine's skies, government report claims
The skies over Kyiv are swarming with unidentified flying objects (UFOs), according to a new report from the Main Astronomical Observatory of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine.
Of course, given that Russia and Ukraine have been locked in a months-long war that relies heavily on aircraft and drones, it's likely that many of these so-called UFOs are military tools that appear too fleetingly to identify, a U.S. intelligence agency has speculated.
Published to the preprint database arXiv, the report — which has not yet been peer-reviewed — describes recent steps that Ukrainian astronomers have taken to monitor fast-moving, low-visibility objects in the daytime sky over Kyiv and the surrounding villages. Using specially calibrated cameras at two weather stations in Kyiv and Vinarivka, a village about 75 miles (120 kilometers) to the south, astronomers observed dozens of objects "that cannot scientifically be identified as known natural phenomena," the report said.
Government agencies tend to refer to such objects as UAP, short for "unidentified aerial phenomena."

Pucky The Guinea Pig Adventures | Part 4
Pucky This little piggy… isn’t a pig at all! Guinea pigs, also called cavies, are stout little rodents from various regions of South America. The best known of this family is the domesticated guinea pig (Cavia porcellus) that is commonly kept as a pet, and is broken down into approximately 13 breeds.
It’s believed that the Incas domesticated guinea pigs more than 3,000 years ago, and Spanish explorers brought guinea pigs back from the Andes of South America to Europe, where they were kept as exotic pets. The other members of the genus Cavia can still be found in the wilderness across the continent.
So where did the name “guinea pig” come from? Theories include that one guinea was the cost of one in 16th century England; the name could reflect on the squealing sound the rodents make; or that their meat is similar in taste to suckling pig. It’s also possible that ships leaving the port of Guiana in South America or Guinea in West Africa may have transported the rodents to Europe and the name stuck.
The extended family. Guinea pigs are more distantly related to the rodents in the genera Microcavia, Galea, Hydrochoerus, Kerodon, and Dolichotis; which include other cavies, capybaras, and maras. The greater capybara Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris, for example, is the largest rodent in the world.
A family resemblance. While the various types of cavy differ in size, there are some shared characteristics: a stout body, a short tail, a large head with short ears, and continuously growing, flat-crowned jaw teeth (20 of them). Their dense, coarse coat ranges from olive-, cinnamon-, and reddish-brown to yellowish-gray. Some, such as the greater guinea pig (C. magna) sport shiny black streaks down their backs. Underparts are usually whitish to gray. The soles of their feet are hairless and claws are sharp. When it comes to domestic guinea pigs, a range of colors, hair length, and coat texture are possible.
HABITAT AND DIET
Savanna to scrub. Cavies are found across the South American continent, in open areas ranging from moist savannas to thorn forest and scrub desert. They live in low elevations right up to 16,000 feet (5,000 meters). It’s almost any port in a storm for the cavy—grasslands, forest margins, swamps, and rocky areas are all home, sweet home to some cavies. Their range runs from Venezuela to southern Patagonia, but they are not found in western Chile or most of the Amazon River basin.
Anybody home? If cavies don’t “dig” their home, they find the home of other wildlife that have moved out. They den at night in burrows that they have excavated or that other mammals have abandoned. Some also find shelter in dense vegetation, in rock crevices, or under brush piles.
A day in the life. Cavies are terrestrial and colonial, active during the day (diurnal) or during early morning and evening (crepuscular). These social rodents are herd animals and stick together when feeding or grooming. Quite expressive, guinea pigs communicate via chirps, purrs, rumbling, and squealing.
A link in the chain. Cavies certainly play a role in keeping their ecosystems running—they mainly eat plant material, but are prey for various mammals, birds of prey, reptiles such as anacondas and caimans, and even humans. Guinea pigs' meat is a part of people’s diets in some areas of South America. The rodents’ docile nature also makes it a common subject for research.
Eat those greens. Cavies chow down on whatever vegetation they can find—grasses, leaves, and fruit. At the Zoo, the guinea pigs’ diets include greens, root vegetables, and hay. Veggies, hay and high-fiber herbivore feed are on the menu for capybaras and maras.
FAMILY LIFE
Lots of little ones. Male cavies are called boars and females are called sows. Following a gestation period of about two to three months, the sow gives birth to a litter of pups. While the average litter includes 3 or 4 babies, as many as 13 babies is not unheard of, especially with domesticated guinea pigs. Though pups nurse for nutrition, they can also eat solid food as soon as they are born. At three weeks, the babies are weaned, and they are fully mature in two to three months.
CONSERVATION
Status. We use the following terms, based on the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species: Extinct, Extinct in the Wild, Critical Risk, Endangered, Vulnerable, Lower Risk.
Four species of guinea pig—Brazilian, montane, shiny, and greater—are of least concern. There is insufficient data for the Sacha guinea pig, and the Santa Caterina’s guinea pig (or Moleques do Sul guinea pig) is critically endangered, due mainly to the fact that the population of fewer than 50 individuals lives in a small area of Serra do Tabuleiro State Park on Moleques Island do Sul, in the State of Santa Catarina, Brazil. People have free access to the island and protected area enforcement is not strict.

Coffee Shop Musician Sings Surprise Duet With Famous Singer Without Knowing It
It was quite the day in paradise for one street performer, playing his ukulele in Honolulu Coffee Kona in Hawaii when he met the man that inspired him to perform. Clint Alama was playing Matisyahu’s ‘One Day’, a single from 2009 when the Jewish reggae performer caught the tune and decided to stop by for a listen. Looking totally incognito, Matis joins in on Clint’s singing every once in a strum, making the dude’s day
The video was recorded by Matisyahu bassist Stu Brooks, shows the spontaneous duet that followed between local musician Clint Alama and his musical inspiration.
"Matisyahu was taking in the local sounds last Friday in Hawaii when he heard a familiar tune. It was a street performer on ukulele, jamming to 2009’s “One Day." “Do you know who wrote that song?" Matisyahu asks. “Matis," Alama answers. “I’m Matisyahu," the Jewish reggae artist replied. Pretty good timing, to say the least. Matisyahu was in town to headline the MayJah RayJah Music Festival and gifted a set of guest passes to Alama, no doubt making the ukulele player’s day." - Stu Brooks said.
“Oh, shoots, it’s you! What’s up, my brother? You look different, kid!" says the starstruck performer when he realizes he just sang a song with it’s original artist! What a day to be alive!
Occurred on July 31, 2016, Maui, Hawaii, USA. The video was recorded by Matisyahu bassist Stu Brooks, demonstrates the unconstrained two-part harmony that took after between nearby performer Clint Alama and his melodic motivation. Brooks captured the event on video, noting "it took a second for it all to sink in. Loved this moment. Matisyahu was in town for the MayJah RayJah music festival on Maui and at the Waikiki Shell.
After the reveal, the couple chilled for a bit and Matisyahu gave his new companion tickets for that night's show. He said he understands that unless individuals are no-nonsense fans they won't remember him nowadays, which he sort of preferences. Dreams do come true!
Matisyahu, is a Jewish American vocalist, beatboxer, and alternative rock musician. His real name is Matthew Paul Miller however, he goes by his stage name Matisyahu which means ‘Gift of God’.
“Get ready for an amazing year filled with music of rebirth. And for those concerned with my naked face, don’t worry… you haven’t seen the last of my facial hair.” Matisyahu says. We guess there will be more surprised busker performers.! Busking is unquestionably a standout amongst other ways we know to discover new fans, and to profit while advancing your music and offering collections. It's likewise awesome in the event that you need to advance your shows and top off time in the middle of shows. If you have a little bit of luck like this street performer, you will maybe meet your favorite singer too!
Buskers already have a difficult reputation to uphold, as they are often compared to beggars. However, most still stand by it as it is a passion! Incredible!

Jake Paul vs Andrew Tate 🥊🥋🥊
Jake Paul will fight a boxer with a winning record in his October ring return, essentially ruling out Andrew Tate as a potential opponent.
Tate is a four-time former kickboxing world champion and boxed regionally in the UK during his younger years, but has no officially licensed boxing matches, meaning he would not qualify for Paul's requirements. There had been talks between the pair's teams and both Andrew and his brother Tristan Tate met with the YouTuber's manager Nakisa Bidarian.
