its history to Vienna in 1683, when John III Sobieski, king of Poland, successfully defended the city from a Turkish invasion. A local baker, wishing to commemorate the victory of this accomplished horseman, fashioned his bread in the shape of a stirrup (the present-day German word for which is Bügel). In the late 19th century, European Jewish immigrants introduced the bagel to the United States, where it gained a popular association with New York City. The American bagel industry expanded…

Defining Success Sitting in the mud, I glared at the bright blue sky spotting the red-tailed hawk who had just ruined my day. Watching the bird glide through the air flying freely away, I paused for a second and the world seemed to stop. “What just happened?” I thought to myself, “that round could have been perfect”. With my helmet intact, I stood up brushing the dirt and shame off my clothes. The sun had barely begun to shove its way through the darkness of the night when I walked into the…

weaker than the bow, it made up for that in its easy use, mastery, and armor penetration ability. Rich lords no longer were the best soldier on the field because they could afford expensive armor. Han China’s cavalry was also improved. The use of stirrups made control and balance while riding a horse easier. With better control, riders could dedicate more attention to attacking the enemy than holding onto the horse. Development of tools and weaponry was vital to the success of the Han…

was correct. It’s finally time to place the saddle on your horse, but first be sure to put the saddle blanket on first. This keeps the saddle from pinching them anywhere. The blanket will be about four inches up on their neck. Then flip the left stirrup onto the saddle so it doesn’t get stuck under the saddle when you place it on the horses back. Pull the saddle up on the horse’s neck, only leaving about two inches of the blanket showing. Tighten up the belly strap as tight as possible, but be…

Sports play a big role in many peoples’ lives. In fact, according to a 2014 poll by TV show "60 Minutes" and Vanity Fair magazine, 90 percent of Americans watch sports. Many of those people have participated in some sort of sport, sometime in their life. Chances are, those 90 percent of people are watching sports like football, baseball, soccer, and golf. What many people don’t know is that there are many different sports that include horses. Barrel racing and show jumping are two very different…

Human civilizations formed extensive communications through aids of trading, commerce, cultural exchange and inventions. During the Han dynasty, Chinese merchants prospered goods through The Silk Road. The Silk Road allowed merchants to sell silk, bamboo, and gunpowder along Eurasia. These goods increased in India, Middle East and allowed Confucianism and Buddhism exchange throughout Eurasia, while the values Confucianism and Buddhism increased in India and China. (Strayer, 321).

It was among the first few days of June, and my fourteen-year old self hopped out of my mom’s car, with a quizzical look on my face. I was attending the orientation and briefing for the group known as Pony Power, a non-profit organization giving special needs and at-risk children a unique opportunity to ride, care for, and interact with horses. My mom knew the owner, and had signed me up to volunteer here over the summer to help with this organization’s horse therapy. Thoughts were swirling…

nips him. Once I put Radar away I had to get smokey groomed and tacked (which is putting on his saddle and bridle). Once I finished we had to ride in the inside ariena because there was so many puddles. So I tightened his girth and and checked the stirrups and went to the mounting block. Once I got on him I started warming him up by doing a collected walk. Once Mrs. Kim said it was ok I went ahead and did a posting trot. People were cutting through the arena to bring horses out to their…
