Learning from the Leaders
The horse's shoulders follow what the inside rein indicates because the outside rein supports the direction and the outside leg supports the outside rein. The swinging back is evidence of suppleness, and if your horse is swinging in his back you will never have a rhythm mistake. Because rhythm and balance are so closely related, your horse won't struggle with his balance, either. Bredahl also offered additional training insights: * Prepare for canter with a slight shoulder-fore to get a smooth transition. * To help horses who are croup high, use leg-yield in canter on a very slight angle and finish in shoulder-fore. * Do a three-loop serpentine until the horse comes through his back in both directions, he reaches with commitment and can make the change of direction smoothly. * Go back and forth between shoulderin and half-pass. For this horse who wanted to run, she suggested the following exercises that helped the rider use the leg and sear aids: * Play with leg-yield, focusing on the fact that you can change and control the tempo.

14 Tips from German Olympian Hubertus Schmidt
[...]he always starts with whichever gait is the horse's easiest. [...]the horse should develop collection with more swing and cadence and become light in the hand. In the preparation for the flying charge, you must: * Make your horse straight. * Change the flexion. * Put your horse into the new outside rein so he is light on the new inside, which ai'ows the inside hi ad leg to step through. * Ask for the change wnn the new outside leg and make the new inside rein loose. * You want the aids to be easy, but sometimes a tap from the whip on the new outside can help. Every demonstration horse-and-rider pair improved thanks to Schmid:'s endless generosity and to Young and her Avalon Farm's commitment to furthering dressage education for all.

Structural, chemical, and electronic properties of superconducting thin films and junctions
$\\rm Ba\\sb{1-x}K\\sb{x}BiO\\sb3$ (BKBO) has a transition temperature, T$\\sb{\\rm c}$, of 34 K and is unique among the high-temperature oxide superconductors because it is isotropic. It has been little studied and it is desirable to understand its behavior from the perspectives of both potential electronic applications and fundamental understanding of superconductivity. This study has involved a determination of the structural, electronic, and chemical properties of BKBO films and junctions deposited by rf magnetron sputtering. It was found that films with the highest T$\\sb{\\rm c}$ and lowest rocking curve widths were consistently grown on SrTiO$\\sb3$. This material was therefore used as a buffer layer for growing high-quality BKBO films on the more practical substrates LaAlO$\\sb3$ and NdGaO$\\sb3$. SrTiO$\\sb3$ was also used as a barrier to fabricate BKBO/SrTiO$\\sb3$/BKBO SIS junctions for the first time. These junctions exhibited tunneling behavior. Modelling based on electrical measurements and electron diffraction observations of surface structure indicated island-type growth of the barrier material. The thickness variation in the tunnel barrier as a result of island formation limits the practical potential of such junctions in most applications where tunneling current uniformity and junction reproducibility are required. As an alternative to BKBO junctions, $\\rm YBa\\sb2Cu\\sb3O\\sb{7-x}$ (YBCO) was used in junction fabrication. YBCO is a desirable material for junctions despite the difficulties that arise due to its anisotropy because its T$\\sb{\\rm c}$ of 90 K allows the use of liquid nitrogen as a cryogen and because it has no volatile components. High-quality films of YBCO were deposited using rf magnetron sputtering. Barriers such as Co-doped YBCO on YBCO have been studied and used to fabricate SNS edge junctions.
