This Is The Beginning Of Understanding 'Cubist Artistic Drawing' In The Overlap Of Lined






As Lipchitz ferried the ship to a barter I began to comprehend Cubinism as Cubinistic.  A Template!!  The fashion of harness came with two types of keys, first the being a ping-pong-ping, the 'Flip book' in miles not inch described this early 1900s use of dried feature.  "A flip book or flick book is a book with a series of pictures that vary gradually from one page to the next, so that when the pages are turned rapidly, the pictures appear to animate by simulating motion or some other change. Flip books are often illustrated books for children, but may also be geared towards adults and employ a series of photographs rather than drawings. Flip books are not always separate books, but may appear as an added feature in ordinary books or magazines, often in the page corners. Software packages and websites are also available that convert digital video files into custom-made flip books" and this shed of marker is not page numbered however it is in capture.  As thoughts lead me to look again at The World and it's fascination with Picasso.  Thread to needle, that eye became hair in a rat's nest as the involvement of was the thickness of paint.  Heavy burp Ping!!

The second startled as xerox to register silk-screen.  Neatly tied as dye a brush would not technique as nicely.  Muster to breast or that chest marched noted to the body of that work. Simply status to a 'I pod' demonstrated from dialing the hands to the wares in both voice and expression.  A face-full envelope on first sight, curb to stop-sign, and at ask of commercial on broad-spectrum (unless obvious) lettering the picture truly has yet to be drawn, at breath their fashion of address is i.d. however.  Long in the stride of however I found the C.I.A. necessary and wardrobe.  In or, the wardrobe did for the 'study-of' and yet during this steady draw I found my own brows askew, I was drawn in presupposition to all the advertised, be-it window decor, threshold doors of open/close and wondered.  Wonder gave this grasp an obvious, open, close.  No hours to display at that was so close.




Pursed gently the clip snapped.  At truth touching that thick mile and not the mile marker.  The C.H.P. would grasp this miles to exit.

Flip book

A flip book or flick book is a book with a series of pictures that vary gradually from one page to the next, so that when the pages are turned rapidly, the pictures appear to animate by simulating motion or some other change. Flip books are often illustrated books for children, but may also be geared towards adults and employ a series of photographs rather than drawings. Flip books are not always separate books, but may appear as an added feature in ordinary books or magazines, often in the page corners. Software packages and websites are also available that convert digital video files into custom-made flip books.

Functionality

Rather than "reading" left to right, a viewer simply stares at the same location of the pictures in the flip book as the pages turn. The book must also be flipped with enough speed for the illusion to work, so the standard way to "read" a flip book is to hold the book with one hand and flip through its pages with the thumb of the other hand. The German word for flip book—Daumenkino, literally "thumb cinema"—reflects this process.

History and cultural uses

It has sometimes been assumed that the relatively simple flip book has been around since long before the invention of the more complicated 19th century animation devices like the phenakistiscope (1832) and the zoetrope (1866), but no conclusive evidence has been found. There are some medieval illuminated books with sequential images, such as Sigenot (circa 1470).[1] The illustrations in Sigenot are consistently framed and have short intervals between different phases of action, but the images can not produce the illusion of a fluent motion. The necessary notion of instances smaller than a second would not really develop before the 19th century.[2]
The oldest known documentation of the flip book appeared in September, 1868, when it was patented by John Barnes Linnett under the name kineograph ("moving picture"). They were the first form of animation to employ a linear sequence of images rather than circular (as in the older phenakistoscope). The German film pioneer, Max Skladanowsky, first exhibited his serial photographic images in flip book form in 1894, as he and his brother Emil did not develop their own film projector until the following year. In 1894, Herman Casler invented a mechanized form of flip book called the Mutoscope, which mounted the pages on a central rotating cylinder rather than binding them in a book. The mutoscope remained a popular attraction through the mid-twentieth century, appearing as coin-operated machines in penny arcades and amusement parks. In 1897, the English filmmaker Henry William Short marketed his "Filoscope", which was a flip book placed in a metal holder to facilitate flipping.
Flip books are now largely considered a toy or novelty for children, and were once a common "prize" in cereal and Cracker Jack boxes. However, in addition to their role in the birth of cinema, they have also been an effective promotional tool since their creation for such decidedly adult products as automobiles and cigarettes. They continue to be used in marketing today, as well as in art and published photographic collections. Vintage flip books are popular among collectors, and especially rare ones from the late 19th to early 20th century have been known to fetch thousands of dollars in sales and auctions.
Since 2007, Walt Disney Animation Studios has started its films with a production logo that initially evokes a flip book. It starts with a view of an empty page of paper, then as the pages start to turn, details are drawn in to reveal Mickey Mouse in Steamboat Willie.
The first international flip book festival was held in 2004, by the Akademie Schloss Solitude in Stuttgart. Another international flip book festival was held in Linz, Austria in 2005.
In 2010 Hungary postal services released a flip book of stamps depicting a moving gömböc.[3] The Israel Philatelic Federation released an "Israeli Animation Stamp Booklet" in November 2010 with 15 stamps designed by Mish to be animated when flipping the pages. It commemorated the 50th anniversary of ASIFA, the 25th anniversary of ASIFA Israel and the "Flip Book 250th Anniversary".[4][5]
The Finnish passport design released in 2012 contains a flipbook of a walking moose.[6]


Screen Printing/Making the Stencil/Photo Emulsion

Frame Requirements

How To

One of the often preferred methods for making silk screening stencils is the photo emulsion technique. Photo emulsion is thick liquid substance which reacts to light. Essentially, photo emulsion becomes "tougher" when exposed to light, making it more difficult to remove from surfaces. That's perfect for creating a stencil: we'll "toughen" up parts of the stencil that we want to keep solid, and then wash away the rest.

Applying the Emulsion

The way we do this is to spread a thin layer of the emulsion over both sides of our screen. You can do this with either a "scoop coater" or a standard squeegee.
To clarify in this section, the "top" of the screen is the side that sits embedded in the wooden frame, and is the side from which you apply screen-printing ink. The "bottom" is the side where the screen is flush with the wood frame, and is placed side-down when printing.
Since you'll be applying the emulsion to both sides, you will need some temporary way of supporting the frame when it is side-down. Thumb tacks stuck into the corners of your frame work well for this. You could avoid this if you did the top first, and then the bottom, since the frame itself holds the top up off the surface, but you'll also want to dry the screen with the bottom side down, so you'll need to support it then, anyway.
Lay the screen flat, right side up, and pour a thin line of emulsion along one edge of the top side of your screen. Use smooth, even, and fairly light strokes of the squeegee to apply a smooth and even layer. Once the top side is coated, flip it over and repeat on the bottom. You'll want to make sure, therefore, that your squeegee fits inside the frame on the bottom side. It is best if it will fit going both the long way and the short way, but as long as it at least fits the long way, you should be ok. Note that after doing the top side, you'll probably have quite a bit of emulsion already pushed through the screen on the bottom side. That's fine, but you'll probably want to add more to the bottom side, still, to get a good coat.
Make sure to cover entirely both sides of the screen, any holes you leave will allow ink to get through. The edges are particularly prone to this, and will cause stray lines of ink to show up on your print. Do the best you can, and remember that on the top of the screen (the printing side, or flat side), you can extend the emulsion over the edge of the screen onto the frame, if that helps seal those edges.

Drying the Screen

Make sure you dry the screen in a dark location, exposing it to light now will cause over exposure and ruin your stencil. If you have a dark closet or drawer where you can lay it flat and it won't be disturbed, that's fine. Other alternatives are to fashion an opaque box big enough to fit the frame in. If you're handy with wood, you can make one yourself, or you can just get yourself some sort of rubber storage container big enough for the frame. Most such containers are fairly transparent, however, so you can get yourself some nice thick black paint and coat the thing in a few layers of that to black out the light. Coating the inside is the cleanest, but depending on the kind of paint, it might be prone to scratching from the frame. Basically anything that will allow it to lay flat without the screen coming in contact with anything, and will prevent light from getting to it will do. You should also make sure it won't be exposed to too much dust, dirt, etc. It'll probably be in there for a day or two, so keep that in mind, especially in closets and drawers.
Your screen will take varying amounts of time to dry, depending on the emulsion, the thickness of the coat you put on, and the air conditions. In general, you're probably looking at about one or two days. I can't imagine it being more than that. A small fan blowing gently across it can help speed things up if you can arrange that.
As long as you're careful not to let too much light in, you can check on it once in a while by peeking into the closet/drawer/box. If it looks dry, you can check it by very gently touching the screen. Do this on the edge where it's less likely to cause problems if it's not dry. If it's not dry, it'll be at least a little tacky. Once it's dry, it shouldn't feel sticky at all. Also keep in mind that the top of the screen will generally dry faster than the bottom; be sure to check both sides before removing.

Exposing the Screen

After we allow the emulsion to dry, we apply what's called a positive to the screen. That's positive, as opposed to a negative, like a camera negative. In a negative, all the colors are inverted, white is black, and black is white. For a positive, the colors are not inverted. For our purposes, it's a positive of the design we want to create the stencil for. In other words, we're creating a stencil which we will use to transfer a design onto our fabric (or whatever you're printing), so the positive should be dark anywhere you want the ink to be printed. The idea of the positive is to block light from getting to certain parts of the photo-sensitized screen. You can do this in anyway that gets the job done; if you want to print a circle, you can stick an opaque bowl upside down on the screen. More often, though, the positive is created on clear plastic, like acetate or a transparency, with a good opaque ink. We'll go into more details in "Positives".
With the positive in place, a large piece of glass that completely covers the pattern should be placed on top, to prevent the pattern from moving. Ensure there is no dust or dirt on the glass that may show up later as specks. Underneath the screen should be a black-non reflective material, or a piece of Styrofoam that will prevent light from bouncing up onto the underside of your screen, exposing the areas you don't want exposed.
Expose the photo-sensitized screen to light. Different photo emulsions require different exposures, but most can be done under a typical 60 watt incandescent light bulb in a few hours, with a makeshift reflector made out of a 10 or 12" pie pan. Stronger lights will require less time to develop, perhaps as little as 15 minutes depending on conditions.

Using unfiltered UV black lights, it only takes 5 minutes.

This is the recommended exposure chart for Speedball brand photo emulsion. Both of these charts apply only if you cut a hole in the center of a pie pan and place it on the socket before the recommended bulb, forming a reflector to reflect the light down on the screen.

With a 150W Bulb, Clear Incandescent:
Screen Size-------------Bulb Height---------------Exposure Time
8"x10"------------------12 inches-----------------45 minutes
10"x14"-----------------12 inches-----------------45 minutes
12"x18"-----------------15 inches-----------------1 hr. 14 minutes
16"x20"-----------------17 inches-----------------1 hr. 32 minutes
18"x20"-----------------17 inches-----------------1 hr. 32 minutes


With a BBA No. 1 Photoflood (250 watts):
Screen Size-------------Bulb Height---------------Exposure Time
8"x10"------------------12 inches-----------------10 minutes
10"x14"-----------------12 inches-----------------10 minutes
12"x18"-----------------15 inches-----------------16 minutes
16"x20"-----------------17 inches-----------------20 minutes
18"x20"-----------------17 inches-----------------20 minutes

Developing the Pattern

Once the screen is properly exposed, you can remove it from the immediate light source and remove the positive. As soon as the positive is removed, you should start washing it out (under normal indoor lighting conditions, most emulsions won't develop in a matter of minutes while you're getting to the sink, etc., but don't dawdle too much, and certainly don't remove the positive, and plan to come back to wash out the screen at another time). This is done under regular tap water, nothing special required. If the screen was exposed properly, the unexposed portions should begin to become visible almost immediately under a strong flow of water, and a little vigorous scrubbing with your finger tips will have it fully removed in 10 to 15 minutes, or so. Once the stencil is totally washed out and allowed to dry, you've got yourself a stencil, perfect for screen printing.

Positives

A good positive can be made with dark ink on a sheet of transparent plastic. The two basic methods for this are by hand, and by machine.

By Hand

The Ink

Doing it by hand is probably the most accessible, but it can also be a real head ache. One of the first issues you'll face is getting a good ink. It is possible to produce a viable positive with permanent marker, but it will probably require double siding (see below) and it's more difficult to work with than some other alternatives, such as India ink. India ink is a rich dark ink, and is relatively quick drying. You can get India ink pens at most art stores in a variety of sizes, for probably around a dollar or two (US$) per pen. This is my preferred method for hand producing positives, but it's still a lot of work. I recommend you get yourself a bold pen, as well as a super fine. Different brands may mark this differently, but bold is generally about as thick as a standard Sharpie marker, and super fine is a about the size of mechanical pencil lead. If you're stocking up, you'll probably want more bold and super fine; if you're doing that much detailed work that you're going to go through the super fines fast, then you might want to think about skipping down to the next section. If it's available in multiple colors, black should be your first choice, since it will block the most light. You might also want to get one of each size in another dark color, such as dark blue or brown. This is useful for double siding, as I'll explain more below.

The Transparency

Once you've got the ink, you need something to put it on. I recommend acetate, which you can probably buy at an art store in a little pad, like a sketch pad except with acetate instead of paper. If it's not acetate, it shouldn't matter, the only real requirement is that it be transparent, and that you can write on it with your ink. Some materials may accept the ink better than others. In my own experience, I've found that India ink on acetate never fully dries, and is therefore prone to smudging and rub offs. On the other hand, this can be a good thing as it's relatively easy to erase with a the tip of your finger, maybe slightly moistened. You'll probably run into similar problems with pretty much any combination of drawing ink and plastic, but some may be better than others, just experiment as you prefer, or ask someone more knowledgeable about plastics and inks.

The Pattern

Ok, ink, transparency, check. But you still need to get the ink on the transparency, preferably in the shape of your intended pattern. The artistic type might choose to draw free hand on the acetate, but more likely you'll be tracing. Even if you want to draw the image yourself, it's probably better to do it with pencil on paper, first, then trace it onto acetate. For the non-artistic type, the image can come from anywhere you can think of. A simple graphics program (or a complex graphics program, if you prefer) can be used to generate some great mono color images that you can then print onto plain paper. Just remember, however many colors you print, each stencil is monochromatic, so your prints will be too. If you want to try multi-color printing, read this section, but I'd recommend you start with simple one-color prints first.
Also remember that you're going to be able to see right through the acetate onto the original image once you're tracing. This can make it difficult to see where you have and haven't already traced, especially if your image is the same color as your tracing ink (which is common if you're using black ink and printing images from a computer). To help this, consider making your images a different, probably lighter, color than your tracing ink. This will make it easier to tell the difference between your traced image, and the original image.
The only thing I have to say about getting the image is to keep copyrights in mind. If you're going to be selling your prints, don't use any copyrighted or trademarked material without permission of the owner. Even if you're not selling, you may want to check local laws about copyright infringement before using any such materials.

Tracing

Once you've got the image, tracing is simple (in theory) since the sheet is transparent, just tape the image you want to trace to the back of the transparency, and have at it. As I said, this can be a real headache. You don't have a very precise eraser while doing this, and making precise marks with a bold tipped wet-ink pen can be a challenge. Fine tipped pens may help you be more precise, but they also tend to not apply quite as well, the tip is usually more firm than with a bolder pen, and tends to rub off ink you've already put down (which, incidentally, is the same problem you might face with a permanent marker). But a fine tip is good for doing outlines and fine details, and use the bolder pen to fill in larger areas. If you really want to go all out, get yourself some in between sizes, as well to help fill in thick lines, or thin spaces. Just remember, however quick drying the pen claims to be, it probably isn't meant for plastic, and probably won't dry all that quick, if ever, so be careful about smudging. You'll typically want to work left to right for right handers (and right to left for left handers), and then top to bottom, so you don't accidentally smudge your earlier work with your hand, wrist, arm, or what have you.

Double Siding

When you've finished tracing or otherwise producing your image on the transparency, remove the original image from the back and hold the transparency up to the light. You'll probably notice that quite a bit of light still comes through the ink, and you may even notice places where you didn't trace at all, or where the ink got completely rubbed off. All of these little imperfections can cause trouble when you're exposing your screen, because if too much light gets through, the emulsion will set and you won't be able to wash it off, which means your stencil will have little marks where the ink doesn't go through when it's time to print. You can fix these up when you spot them, but it can be difficult to find them all, and there's always a chance that it'll get rubbed off again before you print. I've found that the best way to deal with this is a process I call double siding, which simply means you retrace the image on the reverse side of the transparency. The idea is that if there's a small imperfection in the image on one side, there's a slim chance that there will be one in the same spot on the other side, you at least you've got a good fighting change. Furthermore, double siding basically doubles the opacity of your image, blocking out more light. This is very useful if you've found yourself prone to over exposure.
Of course, double siding does produce it's own little set of hassles. For one thing, all that work you did tracing the image, you've got to do it all over again. Second, you've get ink all over what is now going to become the back side of the sheet. You've got to be very careful not to smudge it too much, or rub it clean off. Remember, though, the image is already there, you don't have to trace from the original again, so a good defense against smudging is to tape a sheet of white paper over your first trace, so that as you're tracing the back side, the wet ink will be somewhat protected. It's not perfect, though, you can still smudge even like that. Fortunately, you're double siding so smudging isn't as big of a concern. Lastly, remember how I said it can be hard to distinguish the original from your trace if the colors are too similar? The same goes for double siding. If you're using the same ink on the back as you did on the front, it can be even more difficult to tell what you've already re-traced. holding the image up to the light can be helpful for seeing this, but what a hassle. An alternative, as I mentioned briefly above, is to use two different colored inks for the front trace and the back trace, this will make it easier to tell the difference but remember, the whole point of double siding is to block out more light, so you have to make sure both inks are relatively opaque.

Saving Positives

You may likely want to save your positives once you're done with them. Especially if you're planning to reclaim the screen, you might want to recreate the stencil later, and you certainly wouldn't want to have to go through all that again. Unfortunately, the ink on plastic problem can get in the way of this, so just be real careful about storing them, don't put them somewhere that they're likely to be shuffled around a lot, or have things set on top of them. There are probably ways of treating them to make them more permanent, or even to coat them with something. Go to your local art store or hobby store and see if they have any suggestions. Just remember: the whole point is to block light from the inked spots, and let light through the rest, so don't do anything that's going to conflict with that, for instance some kind of varnish that clouds up when it dries and blocks a lot of light from getting through.

By Machine

This isn't as intimidating as it may sound. Machine in this case just means a computer and printer, or a photocopier. The idea is to simply use one of these devices to print your pattern directly onto a transparency.
Office supply stores usually sell transparencies designed to work with various printers. You want to use the correct transparencies/acetate with laser printers, if you use a regular acetate, it will melt in the printer. This is a low quality method to create film positives.
Good quality film positives can be obtained by using ink-jet printers. If you combine a dye ink Epson printer such as the Epson Stylus 2400 with the correct films such as AccuBlack or AccuArt the results are fine for commercial screen printing. For good results you are looking for high opacity and a high contrast between the film and the ink laid down.
Alternatively, many copy shops should be able to copy a pattern onto a transparency. This may be quick but the opacity is low. Between laser printers or paying a copy house to do it, I don't know which is more expensive in the long run.
Which ever you choose to use, make sure the image is going to block out enough light. Typically, this kind of printing or copying is intended for over head projectors which don't actually require very opaque images. You can try printing a sample to see how opaque it is. If you've done a lot of photo emulsion stenciling, you can probably get a good idea just by looking at it against the light of whether or not it's dark enough. If you're not sure, you can experiment with it, and just be prepared to waste the stencil if it's not dark enough, or you can maybe waste a little money and play it safe. There's a few things you can do to make it more opaque. First, if you're at a copy shop, ask the clerk for suggestions, they may have special toners that are more opaque, and they can probably increase the contrast to make a darker image. If you're printing at home, you can play with your printer settings to try making the image darker. An alternative for either copier or printer is to do double copies of all your positives, and just make sure they're well lined up before using them on your screen. You can use clear acetate desk tape to fold them together since it won't block any extra light. You just have to be real sure you get them lined up right or your image will end up kind of funny. You could also increase opacity by "double siding" a machine printed original, as described above.

Twin Soul: An Ancient Verse




When two souls join back together after learning each lesson and/or after experiencing, seeing and understanding every one of those lessons and/or experiences. Knowing that some of you will be forever lost, this is the cost each of you willingly accepts as the price to cure this disease. Those of you that become lost will be cherished by each and every one of us for eternity. As a protection/inoculation from this disease and to impress and stamp urgency on your souls, one of you shall be immortal and the other invincible. This will be written on your soul at the beginning of your journey. You will not know now which stamp you will receive, but this stamp will be you homing device if the other has caught the disease and is dying. Because this disease takes no preference to the victim, the stamp shall be interchangeable between you to ensure that if the disease is contracted by one or the other of you. This is the best and quickest map back to the other before they die.

This journey is perilous and many of you will not return. We do not know the source or cause of this disease, which is why this is being done. On the same note, this means we do not know who will fall victim or why. This journey that you are about to embark on will give us these answers. With that knowledge we can create a cure. We know that when this disease is contracted, some die and others remain sick. However, they continue to pass it on, either knowingly or unknowingly. We are not certain how this works. Knowing that if this disease is contracted, you are either killed by it or you become a carrier is where the strength and conviction each of you have in your matched soul will be your guide.

Those of you that lose your match, you will be protected from any further threat, also you will not continue this journey with the same agenda. The loss of your match will be . . . well, it is felt amongst us now, so you will then embark on a journey of healing yourself. When this journey begins you will then remember all that is now being said, you will be able to draw some strength to continue on towards the next phase of your journey. You will now know that this has been a last effort for a cure. Look around, remember the power that surrounds all of you now. As long as you are able to feel this in your soul, then you will know the battle for the cure has not ended. Knowing this you will leap to you next task, each of you will need signs, reminders and vessels to draw strength from; to remind your soul of all this being said and to remember that it will take only one set of matched souls to end this disease. No matter what the progression or how many it has infected, the two souls that find their match with the knowledge of this disease and how it is being spread, you both will immediately be empowered by the other. This will be the beginning of the end of this disease that is bringing mankind to extinction. The hurt will be unfamiliar because you have not known all of this that is being said, know this and draw your comfort in the knowledge that this will be over for all of us when the first two have the cure. At this moment, we will all win this battle against eternal death for each and every soul. This cure will be the vaccine that enable man to take the next step through time.

You all will be at risk of the unknown and that is why this has all been voluntary. The purity of a matched set of souls is our best defense and also the biggest risk. Should one of you become ill and not die and your matched soul does not get to you soon enough to . . . ; then you will become our biggest threat. Your memories, power and sight will remain with you but you will be filled with sickness. The actual impact is not known to us, so, it will be left up to each of you to decide what to do, compassion shall be your guide. The sight of one of your own soul circle using knowledge, power and sight to destroy not only the weak but if recognized will destroy you without hesitation. Only at that moment will you be filled with the wisdom to act.

The journey of another, you might be in Hell too!!

A beginning and an end of a journey is how we measure the distance we travel.  I am tired of the Judges that insult and disable the Wares you carry with you.  Constantly questioning, then discouraging while the cripple your Bank Account.  Answers they want, a Free Ride they try to steal by Ways of watching you when you sleep.  Eyes open or closed you feel the breath on the back of your Neck, tick, tick, tick, they whisper with binoculars in hand.  What Country, what County, Container!!

Madness surrounds a journey full of peril, cruelty is abundant. Selfishness and Envy surrounds this Trip. Yet the judge, they comment on your actions, your reactions or your beliefs or the way you may hold another accountable for deeds of horrors that they have committed!!

No one knows how far another has traveled, especially when the Journey began when Man destroyed the earth and made the Universe go black.  Flushed-out of the bottom into Darkness, Emptiness and Fear.  Flushed hurting and crying, searching in a blackness for my Match to light the Way.  I shiver with the Thought of what Man has done and how close it seems He wants to do it Again.

I have been called so many things, I have had to hide in a place that I do not want to be.  No Home, No Name, No Mother, No Father, No Shelter from this Storm. So in this lair I reside until a Way is cleared.  I am hated, and despised, anger surrounds me, conspiring to scare me to move.  My laughter is lost, my fear has retired, stillness becomes me.

I listen, I cry, I call, I scream, I look, I send, I am lost in Time.  My soul is trapped, my Mate is gone, my Journey is long, I want my family with me and I don't want to be Here.  I am sick of the scrutiny and I am not even known to You.  I have no name, I am my Father's creation and I am called a bastard child.  What an insult to a man that has a heart of gold and stayed the Course until The End.

I will not explain because I do not care, I am nothing in all of this, nothing at All, I am nobody and yet I am trapped.  Still they Judge and Point and Presume to know that which that cannot have any understanding because the do not know me.  Locked up in Hell, parasites surround me to ensure I don't escape.  Yet you judge.  Sickness and Apathy washes over the World and yet nobody see's death lurking at the door.  An end will come, this is true, they cannot stop what will be, I just know I am totally sick of this apathy.

Judge this journey, Judge my anger, Judge me, I don't care anymore. Believe what you want, point at what you will and remember you are also in Hell!!

A Letter to Cruelty













God is all-powerful and in turn all forgiving. Your faith and belief that all transgressions here on earth will be forgiven is not plausible. The Divine power of such a blessing lies in his hands, regardless of the location of such a decision.  Therefore you have reveled in your own iniquities, love of self and allegiance to your oath of enlightenment, with no regard. However, your belief that forgiveness will be at hand when you call has caused confusion for us all. The oath of contradiction blinded you with hypocritical self-deceit, which is why you have never achieved peace of mind.  Every being or entity, good or evil has a job.  You assumed in your ignorance that this loophole freed you and in reality it not only bound you, but also consumed your very being.  God is all-powerful and will forgive the transgressions of those that sin knowingly, however, you should have been aware of the power of Creation, herself, the Mother to us all.  She employs the power to give us the strength to pull the heavens down and from the crumbling remains use their shards to build an idol or erect a monument to satisfy our own Divine indulgence; Defining our true nobility for thought and action.  To employ such abandoned power for strength and choice, she must balance the Core of Creation with the wisdom and freedom from the perception of right and wrong, good and evil applying to her actions and therefore the reaction, which brings and End to a Means.  God being the creator of all; God recognized his compassion towards the weakness of man and it would prove to be their own destruction, ending in extinction.  Being Just and Fair, God employed Creation to ensure that his compassion was felt by mankind but did not stop the progression of Creation by accepting inadequacies that mankind created as a result of their own compulsions. God did not want to stand in the way of the Natural Extinction of an infested soul and mind that succumbed to Carnal Desire without regard or consequence to their actions.  Your enlightenment to yourself and desires were fool hardy when measured against the All-Knowing, All-Powerful God of Heavens and Earth. This will be in accordance with all that has been and all that will be for eternity.

Independence




Independence is achieved through the constant search for oneself. In todays world people seem to be thrown by the simple and wallow in the complex. A source to lean on when beginning your journey to the 5th dimension, is simply you! I believe the mind to be the most phenomenal source library to exist. Having the confidence to believe that your mind is capable of imaginative beliefs would be an awesome start toward your own independence. Each of us was given the most incredible gift, a gift that was free of charge, from whom, I suppose, is a debate I would rather not join. But, we were all given a mind with the ability to have the freedom of thought. With this one gift so much of our everyday concerns can be sorted through, which can bring such peace to our minds when we are successful. On those days, where we have achieved our own peaceful and serene tranquility ourselves, I believe, at least for myself, there is nothing I cannot do. I feel like an enormous volcano bursting forth with molten rock as the explosive heat of my core. I feel as if I am liquid nitrogen and I will rocket to unknown places. To feel the burn of such fiery energy consume my every cell and ignite all that I am in one single explosive ride. At those moments, my mind, my thought, my heart and my soul join as one with my imagination and journey begins. I cherish this most of all because when this happens, I have never left the confines of my own being, or have I? This question and the ability to not have to prove or show anyone any of this, other than believing myself while having the exhilarating ride is what Independence is to me.

To Imagine what is Different. Are you intolerant too?



So many people write or speak about change. You may find yourself thinking about change in your everyday life, I know I do. Some people wait their entire life for something, anything to change. Mostly, they seem to leave change to fate, chance, religion, God, other people are a popular one to choose, or they just leave it to any other reason that they can think of and believe it will initiate a change for them.

The question to ask yourself,





I would venture to say that most of us are terrified of change and usually it does not matter the type of change, we will be terrified. The change could be in your employment or romantic relationships, getting a bigger house or a different car, change in responsibility or a different creative idea. It may be a change in any number of these areas or any other aspect of our lives, but change is change no matter how you slice it for yourself. However, at the urge to yearn for change, we will fight change the entire way. It would make no difference what form change arrived in; the battle against change is on! In fact, when anything changes at all (in this world) our entire world is turned upside down. Strange, don't you think? Especially when everyone around the world seems to want something, anything to change.









Referring to the 1959 dictionary again, "belief" is defined as follows;

the intellectual acceptance of anything as true; the act of believing; a faith or creed. Syn. Assurance, confidence credence, creed, faith, reliance, trust.

Do not knock another beliefs because you do not agree, it truly is unkind and cruel. Worst of all, when you do such a thing to another being you are on purpose shattering their soul with your words. That to me, is the definition of cruelty.

In closing, and to combat what I have seen in my life, I am writing down what I believe for all of the shattered souls and hearts in the world. I would like to see those souls, hearts and minds healed and better yet, I would love to see and hear them sing again. This is only a structure that develops belief. What and how you choose to accept or use this is for yourself is for you and you lone to do with as you please. I hope that it will ignite a fire in each of us as individuals, then I hope that as an individual we choose carefully every step we take and that we impact the World with change.

So here you have it in black and white, funny or not, it is just my understanding, the 5th dimension so to speak, it is not just a Rock-n-Roll band. The 5th Dimension is the transformation of your own consciousness to understanding, not just knowing but truly understanding, what you know and choose to do. This is known to me as "Mapping", in order to achieve a finite equation of what life is to me, you must "map your own heart", "map your own soul" and "map your own mind". I would like to share with you how I see this in my own mind, and since it seems to all be a math equation anyway I thought that seeing might be part of believing;

(F{[Da(5)=dm(m/o/s) >- dm(m/o)=(dm(o) ><>-(27(9)-24(8) divided by 4(4)=M(8) Co->-{Qf(1)=F(5)} 

actually the equation is simply, or simple, You!

Free to See! or to be a "Seer"



As you open your own eyes and begin to see the world around you in a way that you have never seen before, what do you do? I have always believed in this simple thought, if people were afforded the opportunity to truly "See", even if it were only for a moment, then in time they would leap at the chance to open their own eyes (minds eye). So believing this, I made myself a promise a very long time ago, or, should I say early on in my life, I don't want to sound old. Anyway, I promised myself that I would never walk by anyone without extending an invitation of kindness with a smile. I would smile and say hello, (simple but true) this may sound lame or stupid but I thought starting with simple courtesy would be something. When you don't know where to start, then you start with the simple and go from there at least that was the idea behind "Hello". In the beginning of my journey I had a difficult time communicating this invitation, mostly, the smile and hello was not working or I just did not know how to communicate at all. Then I could not understand why they could not see all the wonder of the world that was right in front of them, forget my stupid hello. The beauty that surrounds us always amazes me. I have to be totally honest; this made me wonder most of all. We are surrounded by wonder and people so unhappy, including me on occasion. I hate feeling unhappy or miserable about my life, so each day I wake up and say to myself, "new day, new footsteps for me to take in the world today, maybe I will skip out my front door or walk, maybe run, doesn't matter how I do it this morning, I going to do it happily because, I want to, I want to do it for myself in preparation for all the people that I may meet today." 

I used to believe or better put, you could say, "I used to think", maybe people do not want to "see" anything, even the things that seem to be blaring them in the face. Could it be that choosing apathy over sight was due to all the pain that it would cause their own heart and soul? I have to say to you, I am not sure that is it. My reasoning lies in this thought, wouldn't you have to first look at the problem to remember the pain, not simply not look or never look or decide to never "See". It is almost as if people have lost the eyes to see or do not have any eyes at all, no eyes to open or close, regardless of where they may be located, in their mind or eye sockets. How has this happened? Why has this happened? More importantly, how can you heal your own sight if your eyes are gone, replaced with apathy or worse, is now a simple void in yourself.
What is a void anyway? A void to me means an empty space but when I looked it up in the 1959 Webster New Dictionary this is the definition; 



I took a look into my own Soul; I see the design of my own Heart. I can see an illustration of my own Life; it is a map of sorts, full of mountains, valleys, rivers and roads. All sorts of roads, there are freeways buzzing with thoughts that are racing through my mind. As I look more closely at myself, I begin to see the imperfections, as well as, the well worn paths; they seem to be the byways that run across, over, under and through this strange freeway system in my mind. Upon closer inspection of this different world inside of my mind, there are places alive with waterfalls, flowers, trees and pastures, green with new grass and then other places are the driest of Deserts. I can feel the hot air inside and the sun seems to beating me down, it is stifling, it is so incredibly arid. These are definitely the places I do not like to visit in my mind or think about, yet it seems that I am drawn to these places, why? Almost as if we enjoy being miserable in our day to day lives as oppose to choosing to being in all the beautiful parts of ourselves.
I believe that the reason we are drawn to such desolate in our selves is simple, we need to find a reason for the lack of rain or comfort in that spot. I look at these spots and ask myself,

Thank You for listening on how to improve word SLOW[Lombard Street via Van Ness Avenue] to price set the pixel and to word King Norman: Clement Street is optional and The Green Apple is it’s Store!!

 


Cantore Arithmetic is able to state that Paint by number was really a word thing, for this equation to word Equals word equated word tang.  Dan Robbins:  The kits were invented, developed and marketed in 1950 by Max S. Klein, an engineer and owner of the Palmer Paint Company in Detroit, Michigan, United States, and Dan Robbins, a commercial artist. When Palmer Paint introduced crayons to consumers, they also posted images online for a "Crayon by Number" version.  The basis to improve the pixel is to comprehend the depth as it is the width that delivers what is a man:  Jerry Dyer Mayor Fresno former Chief of Police in Fresno, not yet retired and most important, does not live in San Francisco as this City has balanced Melba Maud Ross Placek on the word horror by exhausting the displacement of commonly meet person to the platter of dining Tables that Dorchester brought to the future that was currently her then as in the answered question, and you are?

Albeit stalled in the word vape the language to the sentence is as word watching the clockwork and yet knowingly the balance is not orange as Vietnam was now only an ouch although the war[War] delivered word stretch the Agent Orange was the word awful and the 1960s word got letter M letter K and the word ultra equating word Max a man in MY PAPAS church and my grandfather is not a tapa, and all of this made the equation equated, my Papa[my grandfather] equated word elder:  What is the plural form of papa?...plural papas. papa. noun. also US poppa /ˈpɑːpə/ plural papas.

Now for the piece of word Picnic!!  To improve the pixel the canvas invented has the pastels of Bob Ross Inc. to the appropriate word brush strokes to include all of HIS TOOLS AND HIS TEACHINGS AND HIS STUFF.  Now the price point had been word sorted however word person to word person have abandoned word name to invent the price of what is cost at word.

When you’re getting into riding, whether casually or training for shows, you will be introduced to the task of grooming a horse. This is the care routine that all riders should carry out to inspect and clean their horse on a regular basis, ensuring they’re happy and healthy.

Grooming is somewhat of a rite of passage for new riders, as you learn why it’s important to care for your horse’s wellbeing and hygiene. It also plays a big role when getting them ready for events, as you want them to feel relaxed and look their best.

However, when you’re a beginner, it can be difficult to know where to begin when it comes to horse grooming. In this guide, we’ll investigate the benefits of grooming before helping you to put together your grooming kit and taking you through how to groom a horse step by step. We’ll also provide tips for washing and grooming a horse for a show.

Why groom a horse?

Regularly grooming your horse is an essential part of equestrian care. It’s a chance for you to connect with your horse and make sure that they are healthy, happy, and ready to go for a riding session. The reasons for grooming a horse don’t end there, however, as you’ll see from the benefits that we’ve listed below.

Reasons for grooming a horse

 

How often should you groom a horse?

Many people aim to groom their horse at least once per week, which is usually enough to keep them happy and healthy, or before each ride, which ensures that their horse is relaxed and comfortable before heading out. However, there is no precise answer to how often you need to groom, and you may get different answers depending on who you ask. How often you groom your horse may also affected by considerations like your own schedule and how your horse is stabled.

On the other hand, if your horse lives outside in a herd environment, where they will be able to roll on the ground, brush up against trees, and benefit from mutual grooming from other horses, you may find that you only need to tend to them before a ride. In this scenario, you may only need to pay most attention to areas where the tack will sit on the horse to ensure they are comfortable.

It’s also vital that you don’t overgroom your horse, especially in the winter if they aren’t clipped and spend a lot of time outside, as this can strip their coat of natural oils and reduce its waterproofing abilities. This can put them more at risk when they aren’t rugged and spending time outdoors.

What do you need in a horse grooming kit?

You will need to make sure you have the right horse grooming kit to ensure your horse is well looked after. Each tool is designed for a specific purpose, so it’s important to know what they are so that you can use them correctly. The result will be a well-groomed horse that’s healthy, relaxed, and ready for a good riding session.

Horse grooming brushes and equipment checklist

To help you out, we’ve put together a list of horse grooming brushes and equipment and their uses. We’ve broken this list into essential items, which you’ll need on a regular basis and should be the first tools you purchase, and occasional items, which you will need less frequently or seasonally. You’ll also find helpful pictures of horse grooming tools to help you identify them properly.

The essential kit

 

Curry comb

What is it? A curry comb is a short-toothed horse grooming comb made with rubber or plastic that is used to rub or “curry” the horse to loosen hair, dirt, and other particles, as well as stimulating the skin for healthy blood flow and the production of natural oils. There are also metal curry combs used for tougher tasks and brush cleaning purposes.

How is it used? The curry comb typically has a handle on its reverse that the rider’s hand can slip into in order to perform the circular motion needed to dislodge debris. It can also be used in quick, short motions following the direction of the hairs.

Where is it used? All over the horse’s body but not on legs or the head.

Dandy brush

What is it? A dandy brush is a horse grooming brush that has long, stiff bristles in order to remove the dirt, hair, and other debris that has been brought up by the curry comb. These brushes are most commonly made with plastic bristles, though more expensive versions can have natural bristles, such as rice stems.

How is it used? The dandy brush is used in short strokes in the direction of the horse’s hair growth except for the flanks, where the hair grows in a different pattern. Some dandy brushes can have water applied to them and be used as water brushes to wet down hair.

Where is it used? All over the horse’s body but not the legs or the head.

Body brush

What is it? A body brush is a soft-bristled horse grooming brush used to remove particles and grease from the coat, as well as to provide a soothing sensation to the horse. These brushes are made with either natural fibres, like horsehair, goat hair, or boar bristles, or from soft, synthetic fibres. There are also versions that are smaller and designed for use on the face.

How is it used? The body brush is used with long, sweeping strokes to smooth the coat and bring natural oils to the surface. Usually, these brushes need to be rubbed against a metal curry comb regularly to remove dust, so it doesn’t find its way back into the horse’s coat.

Where is it used? These soft brushes can be used all over the horse’s body, though a smaller brush may be required to carefully tend to the face.

Metal curry comb

What is it? Metal curry combs are similar in design to plastic curry combs but are made with metal for a tougher finish. They still have rows of serrated teeth and a handle.

How is it used? The main reason they are essential is because they are used to clean other grooming brushes due to the effectiveness of their blades at removing debris from fibres. It’s chiefly for this purpose you’ll need one in your kit.

Where is it used? A metal comb can be used to remove dirt from brushes by moving their bristles brushes across its teeth.

Mane brush or comb

What is it? A mane brush and comb are two horse grooming tools used to groom a horse’s mane so that it doesn’t get tangled or matted, or even to style it. Horses with shorter pulled manes will typically require a mane comb, which is wide toothed and made with metal or plastic. Longer lengths will need a mane brush that is quite similar to a human hairbrush in its design.

How is it used? Mane brushes are quicker to use as they can be utilised in a sweeping motion that quickly flattens the hair. A mane comb, on the other hand, needs to be gently dragged through the hair and can be used to thin the mane, by using a technique called mane pulling, in preparation for plaiting.

Where is it used? The horse’s mane – although many people use a body brush for day to day grooming purposes

Sponge

What is it? A soft sponge used to clean in and around the more delicate areas of a horse and to wet down and wash large areas of the body and the legs. It can also be used to clean wounds.

How is it used? The sponge is dampened and then applied to the horse. Delicate areas will require a small sponger and gentle motions, while washing down bigger areas can be done with a large sponge and broader actions.

Where is it used? A small, soft sponge should be used to clean the face, especially around the eyes, nose, ears, and lips. A separate small sponge should be used to wipe down the dock and groin. The body and legs can be tackled with a larger sponge.

Stable rubber

What is it? A linen or terrycloth (or similar) grooming towel or sheepskin mitt.

How is it used? A stable rubber is typically dampened and used to give the horse’s coat a final polish after grooming. One can also be used to absorb moisture when drying or after a ride to remove any sweat, although the latter can also be performed with a sweat scraper.

Where is it used? The stable rubber can be used all over, though care should be taken around the face and other sensitive areas.

Hoof pick

What is it? A hoof pick is a hooked tool with a handle, usually made of metal or plastic, used to remove dirt, mud and stones that get packed into the sole of a horse’s hoof. They can also be used to remove hard-packed snow during the winter.

How is it used? The horse’s foot is lifted so that the bottom of the hoof is reachable, then the rider picks out the trapped debris from heel to toe. All four hoofs are cleaned before and after riding.

Where is it used? On the underside of the horse’s hoof.

The occasional kit

 

Water brush

What is it? A water brush is a soft-bristled horse grooming brush used to apply water to the horse. As it isn’t always necessary to apply water to the coat, you’ll likely need these occasionally.

How is it used? The water brush is used to dampen the coat, mane, or tail of a horse for a quick wash down or to flatten unkempt hair.

Where is it used? It can be used to dampen any part of the horse’s body, though a sponge should be used for the face and other sensitive areas.

Sweat scraper

What is it? A sweat scraper is a horse grooming tool used for removing sweat or excess moisture from a horse’s coat. The most common types of scraper use a rubber blade either in an arc shape with a handle or in the form of a straight wand. Some models of shedding blades have a flexible sweat scraper function.

How is it used? A sweat scraper is used in a scraping motion across the horse’s coat, not unlike the action used when cleaning windows with a squeegee. This will remove the sweat or moisture trapped in the coat after exercise or washing.

Where is it used? It can be used across the horse’s body, but not the legs or head.

Shedding blade

What is it? A shedding blade removes loose hair from the horse’s coat during the season where their winter coat is being shed. A popular shedding blade design is a long, flexible metal blade with short, dull teeth. It has handles at either end that can be joined so the blade is looped for storage. Many shedding blades have a non-serrated side that can double up as a sweat scraper. There are now more options, without metal teeth, which should be considered if your horse has particularly sensitive skin.

How is it used? The shedding blade is designed to be dragged over the horse’s winter coat in spring, where the teeth will pull out the loose winter hair and leave the summer coat. It can also be used year round to remove encrusted mud from your horse. As the blade is metal, it should be used with the utmost care to avoid injuring the horse.

Where is it used? The blade can be used on the horse’s body, but bony areas (as well as the head and legs), should be avoided.

Fly spray

What is it? Fly spray is a specially formulated spray to repel flies from your horse through the spring and summer months when they become bothersome.

How is it used? The spray is applied to your horse’s coat after grooming to ensure they will not be annoyed, bitten, or infected by flies when outdoors.

Where is it used? The spray can usually be applied across your horse’s body and legs, but the face is usually avoided due to the sensitivity of the eyes and mucous membranes.

How to groom a horse, step by step

Now that you know what you will need in a horse grooming kit, you can begin to learn the process of how to groom a horse. Here, we’ve put together a step-by-step guide horse grooming that will take you through the basics of a daily grooming routine. By following these stages, you can ensure your horse is happy and healthy, as well as looking their best.

1.     Tie up your horse

Before you start your horse grooming routine, it’s best to tie them up to a post or beam to ensure that they stay in place. Even if your horse usually stays in one spot, they may shift their weight or move their feet during grooming, so it’s best to take this precaution.

Try to tie their lead rope to somewhere that’s above the height of their withers (shoulders) and only use a quick-release knot, also known as a “highwayman’s hitch” (you can find an easy tutorial here from Animated Knots). Ideally, your lead rope should attach to a piece of baling twine, attached to the beam or fence (or similar), as in an emergency, should the horse pull and get spooked, the twine can be broken.

2.     Clean your horse’s hoofs

To start, you need to pick up your horse’s foot so that you can access it with your hoof pick. Stand at their side facing in the opposite direction to them and adjacent to the leg you want them to lift. Have your hoof pick ready in the hand furthest from them. Run your other hand down their foreleg until you are cupping the hoof, and slowly lean in until they shift their weight, which hopefully causes them to pick up their foot. If this doesn’t work, you can try gently squeezing the tendons above their pastern (the sloping part between hoof and fetlock).

Next, keeping the lifted hoof supported in your hand, use the hoof pick to gently remove any debris that is stuck to the bottom of their foot. Work from the back to the front, which will ensure you do not accidentally jab your horse’s leg, foot, or yourself, and clean out any dirt from around the frog (the fleshy “V”). If your horse is shoed, pick around the inside of the shoe to remove any pebbles, or, if your horse is barefooted, clean around the area where the bottom of the hoof meets the edge.

When you’ve got the hoof clear of debris, take a moment to check for any signs of injury or illness. A common problem is thrush, most obviously signified by a dark discharge from the frog area. Inspect the wall of the hoof (raised edge) for any cracks that may need attention from your farrier. Then, you can gently place your horse’s foot back on the ground and move onto the next one.

For more advice, take a look at our guide to horse hoof care.

3.     Curry your horse

With all of your horse’s hooves picked and inspected, it’s time to pay attention to their body. Start by using your curry comb to loosen the dirt in their coat. As you go over their coat, you should see dirt particles rise up from the skin for easier brushing later.

Begin on their left side, working from ear to tail, avoiding the head, mane, tail, and lower legs, and taking care when going over bony sections of the shoulders, hips, and legs. Use circular motions, applying gentle pressure to dislodge any unwanted particles. Should your horse flatten their ears or swish their tail, they’re indicating their discomfort, so ease off and curry more gently. Use the opportunity to check for any skin lesions or wounds as you go.

4.     Brush away dirt and debris

Now you’ve dislodged all the dirt from your horse’s skin, it’s time to brush it off. So, grab your dandy brush and use short flicking motions to whisk away the debris from their coat. You’ll need to cover the same areas you’ve just gone over with the curry comb, still avoiding the head, mane, tail, and lower legs. Begin at the neck and work your way around the horse, following the direction of hair growth.

5.     Use a body brush to add shine

The last brush you’ll be using on your horse’s coat is the body brush, which has softer bristles that are perfect for adding a luxurious shine. Thanks to this gentler touch, it’s safe to use this brush on your horse’s head and legs, though you might need to use a smaller body brush for the face.

Starting at the head, work your way along the body and then down the legs. Use long, sweeping strokes in the direction of hair growth to whisk away any particles left by the dandy brush and to smooth down the hairs. Take care to use shorter sweeping strokes on the lower legs just to make sure that your horse is nice and comfortable.

6.     Pay attention to sensitive areas

After grooming your horse’s coat, you’ll need to clean the sensitive face and dock (under tail) areas. Use a dampened sponge or stable rubber cloth to gently wipe around their eyes, ears, and muzzle, taking extra care not to cause discomfort. It’s also worth checking for any signs of eye infections, like excessive tearing, swelling, or redness, as well as checking your horse’s ears for lodged dirt or seeds. Be careful when cleaning or handling the ears, as some horses are very sensitive.

Next, you’ll need to wipe your horse’s dock area beneath the tail. Be sure to use a different sponge or cloth for this area for hygiene reasons, and take care to be very gentle with this sensitive area.

7.     Comb through the mane and tail

To get a flowing, shiny mane and tail, you’ll need to carefully detangle and comb them. Begin by working through the worst snags in the mane with your fingers, getting them separated as best as possible. Then, use your mane brush to straighten out the hairs, working on small sections at a time and from the bottom upwards. An effective method is to gently grasp the top of the area you’re working on with one hand and run the brush or comb through the hairs with the other. This should avoid any tugging.

When you are doing the same with the tail, you need to stand slightly off to the side, pulling the tail gently towards you. This will ensure that you’re out of kicking range should your horse get spooked. Depending on the condition of your horse’s tail, you can also consider using a stiff-bristled brush to brush through the mane and tail.

How to wash and groom a horse for a show

A regular grooming routine should keep your horse well turned out on a day-to-day basis, but if you intend to start eventing or enter dressage or showjumping competitions, you will probably want to give your horse a more thorough wash and groom before the show.

This process will probably be a bit more thorough than your regular horse grooming routine, and will likely involve bathing your horse, and maybe plaiting their mane and tail. To get you started, we’ve provided a few tips on getting your horse looking their best.

How to wash a horse

At its most basic, bathing a horse can involve wetting down their coat with a hose or sponging them down, which can often be enough to clean mud or grime. It’s also common for them to be hosed to cool them down after a heavy workout. But, as horses do not naturally seek out running water, you may have to train them to accept washing or introduce it gradually, especially if using a hose.

However, if you are going to enter them into a show, you’ll probably want to give them a thorough scrub and shampoo to ensure their coat is pristine. Before you get started, you will need to assemble a few items to make sure you can do a good job:

When choosing a shampoo, there are a couple of things to consider. Firstly, like humans, horses have allergies, so before applying it to all of their coat, you will want to do a patch test on their skin to see if a shampoo can be used safely. If there’s not a reaction after one day, you can go ahead.

Additionally, non-conditioning soaps have a tendency to dry out the skin, which can become an issue when tack rubs against their coat. So, try to use a conditioning shampoo if possible, and don’t leave it to sit on your horse’s skin for a long time.

1.     Rinse your horse

Before you start the wash, be sure to curry and brush any debris from your horse’s coat. Next, either start up your hose pipe or fill a bucket with moderately warm water so the wash will be comfortable. Then, you can begin to rinse the coat with the hose or apply water with a sponge for a pre-rinse. Start at the feet and work upwards and outwards, taking care to avoid the head. You can then apply water to the underside of their body, under the tail, and between the legs, before finally wetting the mane and tail.

2.     Lather your horse

Now, we can create the shampoo lather. Empty your bucket if you’ve been using it for the rinse, and refill it with more warm water and drop in a sponge. Add shampoo and swirl until the water starts to foam to create suds, then apply the sponge to your horse’s coat in a circular motion from the neck backwards, then move onto the legs and underside. Soap up a second sponge and use it for the under-tail area.

Next, you can shampoo the mane and tail. You can apply some soap to your hand and use it to work through the mane, wetting it enough to work up a lather. The easiest way to wash the tail is to dunk it in the bucket of soapy water and then work through the hairs root to tip. Lastly, get a scrubbing mitten and go over the whole body, making sure the shampoo is scrubbed in.

3.     Rinse again

Following the same process described in step one, start to rinse of all the suds once they have been scrubbed in. Take care to wash away any shampoo residue from the coat, particularly the stomach and back, as leftovers can be irritating to your horse. Gently rinse the mane and tail, making sure there is no residue left behind. At this point, you may wish to add some mane and tail conditioner to your horse’s mane and tail to avoid breakages and keep them soft and silky. Leave this in, whilst you finish sponging your horse’s head, to get the benefit of the conditioner soaked in.

4.     Wash the head

To wash your horse’s head, apply some fresh warm water to a sponge and wring it out so it’s not too saturated, then gently wipe down the head and face, avoiding the eyes. Repeat the process with a soapy sponge, then repeat yet again with the water sponge for a rinse. You should also rinse the mane and tail out if you have used conditioner.

5.     Dry your horse

Lastly, you’ll need to dry your horse. While they will of course dry out naturally, it’s important to let them feel as comfortable as possible after washing. Begin by using your sweat scraper to scrape your horse’s body, following the direction of hair growth from the neck backwards. This motion is very much like as if you were using a squeegee on a window and will remove most of the excess water. Use a dry sponge to absorb moisture from the legs and other delicate areas, as they’re too sensitive for the scraper. You can then gently pat towel-dry the head, ears, body, and legs.

After the horse is just slightly damp, you want to let him completely dry off. First, you should walk him for about ten minutes just to get his circulation going and to warm his muscles up. After that, if it’s a warm, sunny day, you can turn him out. If it’s cold outside, very windy or cloudy, then put a light, breathable blanket on him and keep him inside.

How to style a horse’s mane and tail for a show

When you’re entering an event, dressage, or showjumping competition, one of the first things the judges and audience will notice about your horse is the look of their mane and tail. That’s why many competitors put lots of effort into making sure they are conditioned and styled to perfection.

When it comes to choosing a conditioner, you can choose one that’s applied and rinsed out when the hair is damp or a leave-in product that is simply combed through. Some people use a combination of both, topping up with leave-in conditioner on the night before or morning of the event.

To apply a wash conditioner, you should do so whilst washing your horse. For most products, you will comb the conditioner in from root to tail and leave it in for around 15 minutes before rinsing it out. If your horse has particularly dry hair, you will need to apply the conditioner more often. A leave-in conditioner is typically found in a spray format and can be applied after your horse has been bathed.

Lastly, you’ll have the option of plaiting your horse’s mane and tail for competition. This is done by many dressage riders as they think it enhances their horse’s appearance, but it isn’t compulsory. It’s advisable to experiment with different plaits in advance of any show so you can work out if you like the look on your horse or not.

Traditionally, horses with plaited manes and tails receive an odd number of plaits, most commonly 11 or 13 to get a good length. However, bear in mind that the more you add, the longer your horse’s neck will appear, so it’s worth taking their body shape into account and choosing the right amount.

Japanese bondage

Kinbaku (緊縛?) means 'tight binding' Kinbaku-bi (緊縛美?) which literally means 'the beauty of tight binding'. Kinbaku is a Japanese style of bondage or BDSM which involves tying up the bottom using simple yet visually intricate patterns, usually with several pieces of thin rope (often jute, hemp or linen and generally around 6 mm in diameter, but sometimes as small as 4 mm, and between 7 – 8 m long). In Japanese, this natural-fibre rope is known as 'asanawa'; the Japanese vocabulary does not make a distinction between hemp and jute. The allusion is to the use of hemp rope for restraining prisoners, as a symbol of power, in the same way that stocks or manacles are used in a WesternBDSM context.[1] The word shibari came into common use in the West at some point in the 1990s to describe the bondage art Kinbaku. Shibari (縛り?) is a Japanese word that literally means "Decorativley Tie".[2]
