Dance.
I took a ridiculous amount of pictures when I went to see the Lipizzans perform... I was so grateful that they came out as well as they did! We were sitting in the front row- about three feet back from the bar- I felt that I could reach out and touch them~
Legacy- the beautiful boy you see above- was my favorite. Lipizzans are born black and gradually mature to the beautiful white you see. Legacy was a very young stallion- around two or three (I can't remember which). He was amazing- and so well behaved! Unlike some of his brothers~
Yuri was the oldest of the troupe- a grand twenty-two! Horses of a Lipizzans' size usually live to be twenty-five, yet Lipizzans live until they are mid thirties! Yuri was extraordinarily graceful and put quite a few of the young boys to shame! His finale- the Ballotade- brought tears to my eyes.
The Pas de Deux is a "dance" with two mounted stallions while the Pas de Trois features three. Both were executed with marvelous precision. This particular picture I thought to show the seemingly effortless grace that these horses possess. He is dancing sideways.
Nicholas Maestoso stole the show- but he was such a bad boy! After a few Ballotades with one of the trainers on his back- he simply decided he'd had enough~ He refused to cooperate and had to be led off of the grounds! He is also very young- this was one of his first performances.
The Military Quadrille is the highlight of every Lipizzan show. Stallions are incredibly hard to control- let alone eight on the same field! The movements of this piece flowed with the utmost beauty... I was beyond amazed.
After the event, the guests were invited to the stables to see the Lipizzans... ;-; I basically stayed by Legacy's stall and petted his nose for half an hour. Oh my goodness- he is as lovely "in person" as he looks in the pictures- he has a heart of gold~
My heart yearns for and wonders what he is like under saddle... probably ... heaven.

China and Russia put the blame on some screwed up experiments of US for the earthquake that happened in Haiti.
Chinese and Russian Military scientists, these reports say, are concurring with Canadian researcher, and former Asia-Pacific Bureau Chief of Forbes Magazine, Benjamin Fulford, who in a very disturbing video released from his Japanese offices to the American public, details how the United States attacked China by the firing of a 90 Million Volt Shockwave from the Americans High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) facilities in Alaska
If we can recollect a previous news when US blamed Russia for the earthquake in Georgio. What do you guys think? Is it really possible to create an earthquake by humans?
I came across this [url=http://universalages.com/hot-news/what-happened-in-haiti-is-it-related-to-haarp/]article about Haiti Earthquake[/url] in some blog it seems very interesting, but conspiracy theories have always been there.

[url=http://linkinpark.com/profile/BuyFlagyl]Buy Flagyl[/url] Two mathematical models of acinar flow in a rhythmically expanding and contracting alveolated duct structure were developed: 1) the acinar ductal flow model (11, 27), including an axisymmetric, multiple-alveolated expandable duct model with a closed end, and 2) the single-alveolus model (8), consisting of a fully three-dimensional (3D) cyclically expanding and contracting hemispherical alveolus subjected to a shear flow passing over the alveolar mouth.
