More Than Just A Century - Duration: 10:22.Oh! Greetings!
I have found myself in such a slumberous disposition that I have, therefore,
committed myself onto discussing with you, my amiable companions,
a few latter occurrences that have managed
to be plausible enough to spark a modest inquisitiveness in my spirit
A few arbitrary nomina for this specimen of chatter have crossed
my mind in several occasions throughout a sharp period of two weeks.
So beyond shadow of doubt,
let's enter the discourse upon the latter happenings
in this utterly subjective memory of mine.
This beverage is quite remarkable!
This is one of those brief yet utterly pleasant moments
for which I value my nonessential presence in this uninterrupted universe
I feel like we are getting in unnecessary profound philosophical districts...
I suggest we ought to discuss more simple manners, shall we not?
It would be an overstatement to say that I hadn't been exposed to odd conditions
after my brief and unexpected to my persona online departure.
Hence odd occurrences are always chosen arbitrarily by my own judgement,
I shall address a phenomena that has been present
in my subconscious mind for as long as I am concerned on the matter.
In any ways I am implying that the approach I have chosen for this phenomena
will be admissible or coherent to those genuinely informed on the matter,
but I will endeavour my best rationalizations onto it.
So without any further irrelevant chatter,
I ought to introduce you to premonitory dreams.
Some weeks prior to the event I had caught a glimpse of an individual
on the pavement, a situation I'm certain many of you have dealt with.
We all see a great deal of faces on a daily basis,
therefore it is no surprise that your subconscious brain accumulates those.
Hence your brain theoretically does not have the capacity to compose faces,
it dwells upon those it has stored on
the hard-drive.
Thus a strange occurrence inflicted on my sleep a few weeks after.
Without having any slight curiosity in behalf of that individual,
my brain, for some reason
committed itself to hypothesize about hitherto mentioned individual's nationality.
I must acknowledge my utter indifference to the potential enigma
which required my attention
mainly because it was not of my business
or really anyone's to have access to that personal information.
Moreover, I do not commonly reason about these matters,
and I am inclined to think that this assumptions were brought by
some insignificant detail I had probably noticed and therefore stored in some location in my brain.
I hope I have made myself clear.
Now let's prolong the narrative.
This hypothesis astounded me for many reasons,
the earliest in order being the decision my brain had made
while I had no control over its activity.
The aftermath of this unrequired,
utterly inconvenient speculation was really unexpected to my persona.
Three nations were chosen as potential candidates for the final result.
When the sun had risen, I contemplated all possible reasons for this choice of dream,
being utterly atypical since most of the time
I fail to have coherent thoughts when my consciousness is suspended.
I can conceive of no explanation whatsoever to what had happened that night.
Next morning I had a serene conversation with an acquaintance,
and I assume you can anticipate the amazement that I had encountered.
My beloved friend was engaged in displaying a self-taken portrait
of them and a group of individuals which I had assumed were their acquaintances too,
and then the realisation had hit me.
Behind all those unknown faces, I noticed the familiarity of a particular one
and therefore I could not contain the desire to prove whether that
hypothesis that was brought up hours ago in dusk was to be remarkably truthful or not.
I asked my friend to describe the person in the back of the portrait,
and my mind just completely ceased to rationalize the information that was given to me.
That individual that we have been so ignorantly and intrusively discussing
for the past five minutes, was, to my surprise, of Swedish nationality.
Just as the subconscious part of my brain had predicted
when I had no control over its actions.
I did not even have the opportunity to choose whether I had the desire to be part of this hypothesis or not!
Look, I am aware of the potential lack of logic in this tale, which could be, beyond question,
rationalized by an odd number of occurrences well adhered together…
but alas!
what a rare quest it has been.
Now I will withdraw myself from this narrative
and consider it to be hopelessly well held by an odd number of coincidences,
and I am giving you the freedom to construct
your own opinions in behalf of this utterly rare inconvenience.
The concluding subject that has been chosen to be discussed,
might reassemble previous interlocutions we have had in this site.
Brought by some fatiguing paperwork that must be done as per instruction,
my brain-work has found itself in inevitable approaching events in relation to academic work.
The subject that I have chosen to dwell on
can be summarized by "the unneeded choice of mastering uniquely one career".
I am an unyielding believer in regards to the certainty
that one can master any academic / non-academic question
if the desire is constant.
So, after attempting to interpret my aptitudes
in an exceedingly time consuming approach,
a thoughtful yet alarming understanding was born.
An individual is up to acquiring all the abilities it longs for,
and condemning oneself to the study of only one area
is dispossessing all the potential hidden abilities one gets hold of.
In defiance of this utterly narcissistic position
that I unfortunately have conceived in order to
to comprehend society's view on career choices,
I am obliged to verbalize the evidence.
May I, with your permission,
portray myself as this credulous, incredibly ignorant moron
that neglects to acknowledge the realness of the matter,
and that would more willingly co-exist
with a primate than aim my attention to a unique academic field.
At present time, I am devoting myself
to the study of four contrastive subjects,
that if were brought together, no similarities between them would be exposed.
I do presume you grant me the opportunity to cite
Arthur Conan Doyle while you are assembling
your private opinions on this utterly subjective point of view that I have hitherto mentioned.
-time to think-
"I do not think it is a fair game to allow you
for one unnecessary moment
to waste your energies upon a profitless task."
- The Valley of Fear by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
now for some reason i decide to sign the letter
and look at the pen
i'm just saying that...try new things.
you never know if you're gonna like them or not.
and...do what you want.
i respect your opinions
because this is all very subjective, as i have said before,
have your mind opened to new opportunities,
'cause you never know.
maybe you'll like them, maybe you won't
try new things, that's what i'm trying to say.
Thus here concludes our discussion, my beloved companion!
I am awaiting for the fulfillment of many instructive tasks
with the purpose that we may cover more important subjects
on an infinite number of matters.
I long for our proximous rendezvous, pal.
Cheers!
...do you remember that i told you
that i thought that girl
was feeding rabbits? well...
Guess what happened?
I came up to her and asked her,
"do you have a business regarding rabbits?"
or any other animals because well...
I mean, I think it's rabbits but it could be anything.
and then, she just completely mumbled something
i didn't -i just - i didn't even understand her
and yeah...well...
that was really weird.
and the next day i came to her room
just because i think i forgot something idontknow
and guess what she was doing.
she was looking up
cages for bloody rabbits!
you know?
and then i asked her, "what are you doing?"
and she- she was really scared
i mean, my bad....sorry.
it's just that...she was really scared.
so i think that she really does feed rabbits
in cages.
Because...why else would she be
looking up cages....on the internet
i mean....
yeah, well....really weird.
what?
did i say something wrong?
are you okay?
...you look like you're scared or something...
has something happened?
this drink actually ressembles a drink
that was done in pubs during the victorian era
"how do i know this?" i read it.
people were quite interesting in that time, weren't they?
said quite odd things
but were interesting.
Well fair enough!
...oops, sorry!
I have to leave.
you sit there, with your shockness
i don't know why you're so impressed
but yeah.
also! hey, can i pay for this? someone?
yeah, thank you, i need to check a thing, hold on.

Episode 35 - The Devil's Rope (Alternate Audio) - Duration: 9:26.Hi, I'm Mike and this is our Wyoming Life
The Devils Rope, or barbed wire, the invention that tamed the west came about in the late
1800s and as ranchers moved out on to the plains they needed to fence their land against
other farmers and ranchers, rail roads throughout the west needed to keep livestock off the
tracks and farmers needed a way to keep cattle from trampling their crops.
Joseph Glidden received his patent for what is considered modern barbed wire in 1874 and
began promoting it in Texas. Before the fences, the west was open range, cattle allowed to
roam freely, regardless of who owned the land. The invention and use of barbed wire brought
plenty of drama to the western rangeland. It made the fencing of huge expanses cheaper
than hiring cowboys to keep track of cattle. In the 1880s the government and large ranches
with government pull, began fencing public and federal lands without any regards to land
ownership or other public needs such as mail delivery or the path ranchers moved livestock
from one grazing area to the next. This led to fence cutting wars which broke out in Wyoming
in the early 1880s, until in 1883 when the court ordered a big cattle companys to stop
fencing public lands and remove fences they had built. None the less by the 1890s barbed
wire fencing was everywhere and the age of the open range was gone.
Wyoming is still an open range state; some call it a fence out state. Basically all that
means is that if you don't want my cows on your property it's your responsibility
to build and maintain a fence. Livestock still have the right of way, if an animal is hit
and killed by a vehicle the driver is liable for the price of the animal and the repair
of damage to the vehicle and if the county or the state doesn't want a ranchers cow
crossing the highway or road, then it's their responsibility to build and maintain
the fence, and in some cases the state has even built tunnels under highways for cattle
to move though. All this leads us to this week's project.
Fencing off the dump. Every rancher around here has a dump, whether it's spread over
the entire ranch or confined to one area like ours. The dump is full of old wood, old equipment,
and materials and because most ranchers and farmers never throw anything away. Therefore,
because you never know when you might need to salvage a part of an old mower it lives
here. But the dump is also a hazard to animals. Cows are curious animals and a cow or a calf
could get tangled up in old wire or cut themselves on a piece of metal.
This year we will be breeding our heifers or cows that have not yet had a calf in this
pasture, the pasture that also included the dump. Fencing off the dump will allow the
cows to be safe as well as allowing us to preserve the dump and its contents.
New fences always start with planning, thanks to tools that past generations never had we
do this quite easily, where in the past they had to measure on site we can use google earth
to plan our layout and figure out materials for the project.
Then we can go to the actual site and transfer the layout. T
he most important part and most time consuming part of a barbed wire fence is constructing
the corner and bracing posts. Barbed wire is under a lot of tension, often up to 1000
lbs. and the corner posts sole function is to resist the tension of the fence connected
to it and bracing keeps the corner posts vertical and prevents any slack in the fence.
After we finish this fence we will be moving our heifers into this pasture and a new bull
will be arriving within a few days to start breeding so we will be setting our corner
posts in concrete. This will allow them to be stronger faster. Posts are 6 to 8 inches
around and 8 foot long, using the bobcat and an auger attachment we can drill a hole in
the earth to depth of 3 feet and set the post vertically, making sure its level and straight.
We place another post, known as the brace post about 4 feet from our corner post and
add a horizontal compression brace, this one made out of 2 and ½ inch steel pipe connecting
the two posts. Then a diagonal wire connects the top of the brace post to the bottom of
the corner post. This wire prevents the post from leaning which then allows the horizontal
brace to the prevent the corner post from leaning. Keeping the whole corner square and
solid. Lines posts at then installed spacing them
16 feet apart. Our line posts at steel t posts that are 5 feet long and driven into the ground
using a t post pounder, a 40lb tool to drive them in.
This is a good time to introduce Mitch, Mitch is our hired hand for the summer, he just
graduated high school and will be leaving for army basic training in August. He has
helped out here on the ranch for about the last six months but this is his first big
project. Say Hi Mitch…. As luck would have it, I only own one t post
pounder. So Mitch will get the honor of pounding around 100 t posts that need to get put in
the ground for this project. Once all of the posts and the bracing have
been erected, the barbed wire is brought into the fold. The wire is wrapped around one corner
post, using a staple to hold the height and then reeled out along the span of the fence.
Then wrapped around the opposite corner post, pulled tight with a wire stretcher and held
in place with a few more staples. You repeat this process until you have 5 strands
of barbed wire all around the fence. Then you attach the barbed wire to the t-posts
using tpost clips, twisting them around and holding them firmly to the post. The sole
purpose of the t post is to keep the barbed wire strands spaced equally and off the ground.
As with most fences you need a gate to get in and out and we have found a couple old
steel gates, oddly enough in the dump, to make a 20 foot double swing gate to give us
access. These gates are mounted between two corner posts with lag screws.
With the addition of the gates our new fence is complete, ??? feet of total fence, 13 wooden
posts, over 100 t posts, ???? feet of barbed wire and a lot of sweat from both me and Mitch
have made a barrier to keep our new breeding heifers safe and sound during their stay in
this pasture. Now it's time to introduce them to their
new home. For the winter they have stayed in the corral, getting a bale of hay every
few days to feed on. Now they will be introduced to the lush pasture grasses and room to run,
but first we have to get them loaded into a trailer and moved.
Cows never seem to want to go anywhere you want them to go, I wish you could tell them
how much more awesome their new home will be and convince them they want to go but when
it comes down to it, you have to push and shove them, but eventually they are on a trailer.
We travel with them to their new pasture and let them free. Don't they seem happy?
In a few days the new bull will arrive and they will set to work becoming another working
part of the ranch, getting pregnant and producing calves and adding to the longevity of the
ranch and our family. In the end all the animals on the ranch are
our responsibility, with or without open range, you protect your herd from danger and sometimes
that means fencing them out of an area they would love to explore, You get a few cuts
and bruises, and even dropping a 30lb piece of steel pipe on your foot and breaking your
toe, but you also get to turn these guys loose, I'd like to think that green grass makes
a cow happy, I know it does me, broken toe and all.
Please subscribe like comment and share, so that we can keep on bringing you videos like
this one. You guys are amazing and keep us going, believe it or not. Your support has
breathed new life into what we are doing; you help us have the confidence and energy
to do new things and keep us going, so I thank you for that. Have a great week and thanks
for joining me in Our Wyoming Life.

360 Dive Rolls & a Kid Kept Saying I Failed - Parkour Vlog - DragoNate Daily Vlog - 2017-05-27 - Duration: 4:16.hey guys how are you doing so today is
Saturday I hope you guys had a great
Saturday you will of course be seeing
the clips of my training from today but
I just want to kind of explain for real
this time no joke what I actually
focused on today so what I focused on
today was 360 dive rolls so I think it's
pretty easy to understand what exactly
that means but I'll just kind of give a
quick explanation of it right so a dive
roll is where you dive you land hands
first guide your body from your hands
down your arm to your shoulder and you
roll right it's a shoulder roll not over
your head not a somersault
but with your head tucked outside and go
over the shoulder shoulder to hip now
the 360 type roll is you do a dive roll
that you spin 360 degrees as you dive
and then you land hands first and guide
yourself blah blah blah roll right so
today this is what I focused on I was
trying to learn this we started working
on these in class on Thursday night and
it's something I want to get because
it's actually really cool and it feels
really good once you do kind of get it
right so this is what I focused on for
today now there were a few times today
that I actually got it pretty well and
it felt good like I could feel it was
getting there but for the most part it
wasn't really the greatest and I'm still
trying to figure it out and figure out
how it works for myself right so
unfortunately today I wasn't really able
to get it working right or do it you
know like train the way I wanted to kind
of thing and there is one small little
thing that just kind of like threw me
off and ruined my entire mood so there
were these two kids there me and my
friend and I were trying to practice this
right and then these two kids were
wanting to use the same thing so you
know all four of us were sharing totally
fine no problem right so my friend goes
and he does his thing and then I go and
I do I do mine and it's a fail right I
fail all the time and I do not have a
problem with failing you have to fall
and you have to fail it before like to
figure things out before you can
actually succeed now usually when I fail
something I just laugh it off because
it's funny it's funny to me it makes me
laugh and it does not bother me
whatsoever it used to when I was first
starting but now I couldn't care less
but one of those kids kept saying every
time I failed he kept saying you failed
you failed stop hitting the blue mat you
failed and all of this right like it just
kept going on and on and on and it got
annoying and it was literally ruining my
self-esteem and ruining my mood for the
entire thing so finally the one time he
said it I'm just like kay you need to stop
saying whatever about me failing okay
because when you keep telling someone
that they're failing it doesn't make
them easy for them it doesn't make it
easy for them to continue doing it and
to feel good about it I could just it
really upset me so that's a little
unfortunate thing from today but I mean
I still I still had a lot of fun today
felt a bit off because of that and
probably because of other things I don't
know so before I continue talking and
rambling on and on here are the parkour
clips and I hope you guys have a
great wonderful Sunday enjoy your day
enjoy these clips and I'll see you again
very soon Godbless
this
okay oh really well
okay
