Eve Jobs is one of the 4 heirs of Steve Jobs, the technological visionary and computer mogul. While her reputation is largely due to her father, Eve has been the most mediatic of her 4 children. Today we will know the life of Eve Jobs, her passions, and what has made her famous: to be an excellent amazon. Let’s get to know her life a bit and how to raise a man like Steve Jobs to one of the most mediatic Amazons. Eve Jobs winner of the Countryfrog 4* Longines Rankings ClassWatch this video on YouTube Who is Steve Jobs, the father of Eve Jobs? Steven Paul Jobs, better known as Steve Jobs, is a guru, visionary and technological entrepreneur. Businessman, magnate of the computer and entertainment sector. Known initially for founding Apple and creating the Machintosh, he stood out for innovating in each step. Jobs and Wozniak The greatest achievements of Steve Jobs that made him a cult figure were:He created the first personal microcomputer produced on a large scale. At the beginning of 1984 his company launched the Macintosh 128K. The Macintosh was the first successful personal computer that used a graphical user interface (GUI) and a mouse. He was expelled from the company he founded because of differences with the board of directors. Steve Jobs founded in February 1986 Pixar Animation with the acquisition of The Graphics Group, 40 of its employees and the capitalization of 5 million dollars He received the National Medal of Technology from President Ronald Reagan. He returned to the company he founded in 1997 to rescue her from bankruptcy. In its second stage at Apple I create the following products: i-mac, iTunes Store, ipod, iphone and ipad. All iconic and successful products. In the USA 323 patents of Steve Jobs appear on behalf of Apple.As we can see, the shadow of Steve Jobs on his children is huge. Now how was Steve Jobs in his personal life. Eve Jobs as the daughter of Steve Jobs. Eve Jobs Steve Jobs had a first daughter named Lisa with the artist Chris-Ann Brennan which he did not recognize until he was forced to a paternity test by a judge. Despite them and before their recognition, Lisa called one of the personal computers created in its first stage at Apple. Before recognizing her, Chis-Ann and Lisa survived with the help of social assistance. After recognizing her, she paid five hundred dollars a month for the maintenance of the girl. With this background we could worry, but his relationship with his second wife and his other 3 children was totally different. In 1991, Steve Jobs married Laurene Powell, whom he met at Stanford University. They lived in Palo Alto, California with their three children. Eve Jobs is the youngest of her three children. The older brothers of Eve Jobs are Erin Siena Jobs and Reed Jobs. One of the most controversial statements of Steve Jobs is that he did not let his children use the iPad and social networks. When Steve Jobs was director of Apple, he forbade his children to spend too much time manipulating iPads and iPhones. … “They have not used it,” Jobs replied. “We limit the amount of technology children can use at home.” Something contradictory, but consistent with its controlling and dominant facet. How is the life of Eve Jobs? He was born on April 30, 1998, the year in which his father launches the iMac. Far from following in her father’s footsteps in the technological world, Eve preferred to work and dedicate herself to her great hobby, which is horses. It is a media celebrity, whose Instagram account has more than 500 thousand followers. “Horse riding helps keep you humble. (…) That taught me independence, dedication and perseverance ” Eve Jobs Jobs follows a rigorous training routine at his mother’s Florida ranch. This ranch is valued at more than 15 million dollars. An impressive center in which the young woman has a house with four rooms, stable for 20 horses and a complete circuit of jumps. It is noteworthy that among the hundreds of publications that Eve Jobs has in her Instagram account, she does not have any pictures with her father … Maybe that gives us an idea of the kind of relationship that was forged in her house. Beyond all, the strong character of Steve Jobs left a mark on Eve. Thanks to this she is one of the most important amazons and she continues to advance in her rise in the equestrian world. The equestrian world is hard work and dedication and Eve Jobs took it from her father.

Sport has a relevant role in society. The enormous social value of sport and what athletes and former athletes can contribute to society. In fact there is no other discipline that has the power to drag and unite large masses like sports. This is how the world of equestrianism is still present in the Olympics. In many countries this type of competition is carried out. That is why Gustavo Mirabal Castro of G & C Farm talks about the performance of sports in the development of society. Gustavo Mirabal, who is also an equestrian jumping rider, calls himself “amateur”. But something has shown that in the time it has founded G & C Farm, is that the passion for the equestrian world goes beyond a hobby and has become rather, a lifestyle. Below we can see the route taken by the Spanish Olympic rider Sergio Alvarez Moya on G & C Arrayan. G & C Arrayan is one of the horses trained by Gustavo Mirabal. We can see the excellent performance of the pair, product of the partnership between Gustavo and Sergio. Sport is a value of society despite the fact that promoting it is a little recognized work. Gustavo does not mind getting his hands dirty a bit and promoting the sport by doing his “dirty” jobs Sergio Alvarez Moya con Arrayan 1ª recorrido GP Stuttgart 2016Watch this video on YouTube Horse farm idea of Gustavo Mirabal The G & C Farm project was born from a dream, during their studies in the United States.

Therefore, achieve the professional goals set in equestrian sport. On the other hand G & C Farm has managed to establish commercial alliances with riders of the stature of Sergio Alvarez Moya currently number one in Spain. Fact that makes the surname Mirabal begin to “sound” in this country as an important ally of the sport. Gustavo Mirabal also has the support of Gustavo Arroyo the important Venezuelan rider. Arroyo returns with strength after suffering an injury that separated him for a while from the competitions. Gustavo Arroyo competes in this discipline since he was 11 years old. Gustavo Mirabal Venezuela Rider Promotion of equestrian sport from G & C Farm The equestrian sport if you see it from outside can seem very nice. But behind the elegance and strength of horses there are people who do not give up. This are people with values forged through discipline. Constancy, the study of technique and commitment are necessary. This is the great learning that sports in general leave us. While the world seems to reward only talent, the reality is that hard work beats talent when it does not strive Gustavo Mirabal Castro from Spain continues to promote sports and establish alliances.

The Peruvian Apero is the set of harnesses or accoutrements that the horse carries, conformed by the following elements elaborated all in leather and by hand by fine Peruvian saddlers who adorn it with fine pieces of silver such as:Estribos (stirrups) Pellón Manea Pecho petral (petral chest) Bajador (dropper) Lazo (Tie) Chicote Espuelas (Spurs)Next we will describe each one of the parts of the Peruvian Apero or arreo. MUSEO DEL APERO DEL CABALLO PERUANO DE PASOWatch this video on YouTube The stirrups of the Peruvian Apero This serves for the chalan to support the feet. The Peruvian stirrup is made of plain or carved corrugated box, handmade in olive, guanábano, orange, pacae or arabisco wood, with pieces of silver or other metal. The shape is truncated pyramid and is unique in America. It has four obligatory fixed toes, two perpendicular rods, a fixed piece called “campana” (bell in english) from which comes another in the form of a hand in which the spike is placed. In the side mount, a stirrup leather or styled leather stirrup called a sneaker is used. You can wear ornaments of precious stones and the initials of their owner. The pellón of the Peruvian Apero Peruvian Apero or Harness It is one of the most unique pieces of our tool and only exists in our country. It is a handmade woolen cloak of trapezoidal shape that is placed on the frame to give greater comfort to the chalán. The most valuable is the pellón of San Pedro de Lloc, hence the name of Sampedrano, although also that of Chota is highly valued. It is made with finely finished lamb’s wool strands in one or two ends. Therefore, its value depends on the fineness of the braided strands. The manea of Peruvian Apero Piece of common braid that serves to lock the horse and prevent it from moving when it is dismantled and there is no appropriate place to tie it. It consists of two pieces, which at their ends have a pin and a button joined by a ring. The chest petral Peruvian Apero It is a piece of strong leather that comes out of the half of the strap forward and forks to the sides by means of a ring, before joining the saddle. It is widely used in the saw to prevent the saddle from rolling backwards. The prize given to the champions in the competitions, is also called «pecho petral» (Petral Chest in english), although it does not serve for this purpose. The bajador or dropper of the Peruvian Apero It is a strong leather strap two centimeters wide that is placed half of the strap forward and passes under the tuning that fits the muzzle. This also forces the horse to face properly when sitting. The tie of the Peruvian Apero It is braided leather with more than four strands. The tie measures from ten to twelve meters and serves to lacerate or pialar an animal. It has a metal ring on one end and on the other, a non-braided sueded leather in the shape of an ear, which is secured to a button on the end of the loop. The chicote of the Peruvian Apero Start with a 0.40 m long orange or yoke handle or rope, linked to a piece of flat 0.20 m leather that continues with a 1.20 m long braided piece, followed by another of 0.80 m and ends with the prop in several points of cabuya or twisted mane. Likewise, it is used for cattle herders. The spurs of the Peruvian Apero They are the accessory of the clothing of the chalán. It is white metal or silver. They can be flat, carved or bevelled with an onion tip or snake head where the rosette is placed. This one is of iron with five points for greater punishment, or six to diminish it. It has a strap with holes and a double buckle with pin and toe. Complement the spur, the heel of embossed leather, like that of the saddle. There are snore spurs because they make noise and are suitable for dull animals; and others, called tomboy. In general they serve to spur the horse. The weight of the spurs should be 500 grams of silver. The Peruvian Apero is an element of the national equestrian tradition. It is born with the horse of passage and stays in the heart of the nation. Some like the pellón have ancestry in the tradition of some regions as in this case it is preserved in San Pedro de Lloc and makes it more valuable for its tradition and technique. Apart from its functionality, the Peruvian Apero gives us knowledge about the tradition and aesthetics associated with the equestrian world. And is that the tradition and history of man are associated with the horse, his eternal companion.

Hans-Heinrich Isenbart is one of the most distinguished experts in horses. Some might think that he devoted himself body and soul to the study of horses, but nothing could be further from the truth. This versatile man stood out in different branches of knowledge and trades. Despite its diversification, his passion for horses left a deep mark on his German compatriots and many generations. Today we will know more about Hans-Heinrich Isenbart. 2018.07.22 Preis der Kaesler Nutrition GmbH (GER) - AlarisWatch this video on YouTube Hans-Heinrich Isenbart was born on February 5, 1923 in Vienna, the capital of Austria. Vienna is one of the main European cities highlighted by its beauty. Son of an officer and the daughter of a merchant, since very young he had contact with the equine world.

There he attended the Wilhelm-Gymnasium university preparatory school one of the oldest schools in Hamburg. The school was founded in 1881 and was renamed Wilhelm-Gymnasium in honor of Emperor Wilhelm I. There have studied outstanding personalities such as James Franck, a German physicist who won the Noble prize in physics with Gustav Hertz. Most of his family was official but Hans-Heinrich Isenbart could not follow the family tradition because his maternal grandmother was of Jewish origin. This made the Nazis, who had power in Germany at that time, prevent him from pursuing a military career.   Work and university life of Hans-Heinrich Isenbart In 1945 he worked as a freelance in the Nordwestdeutschen Rundfunks (Corporation of the Radio of the Northwest of Germany) a prominent public radio station based in Hamburg. After completing his law studies in Vienna, he returned to Hamburg. In 1951, he returned to the Northwest Radio Corporation of Germany as editor.

During the Olympic Games in Melbourne Australia, but whose Olympic equestrian events were held in Stockholm, Sweden, one of the most interesting events of the history of Olympic equestrian competitions. There the jumping rider Hans Günter Winkler suffered a muscular tear in the groin in the individual team qualifying round. Despite the tear, Hans Günter Winkler continued in the fight with Halla, the mare he rode. Despite the difficulties, Winkler and Halla achieved double Olympic gold, in individual and team competition. Not to let the German team leave the classification, Hans Günter Winkler participated with Halla in the second round despite great pain. As a result of the pain and analgesic injections and suppositories, many sources indicate that it was morphine, Winkler was so dizzy that he had to take a very strong black coffee to avoid falling asleep. Before starting Winler was shaking. In this condition, Winkler could barely ride on Halla. Both reached the obstacles but without transmitting the usual signals through the pressure of the thigh. Despite this and thanks to Halla’s intelligence, they managed to overcome obstacles and win gold. In the television coverage made by Isenbart during the last obstacle he shouted a legendary phrase that would remain for the story: “Und Halla lacht, als wüsste sie, um was es geht” And Halla laughs, as if she knows what it is.

Gustavo Mirabal Castro did the “dirty” work … And is that to reach far in life should make sacrifices, have priorities, have vision. Precisely the latter is what characterizes this Venezuelan rider: the vision. G&C Farm Gustavo Mirabal and Qairwan du ThotWatch this video on YouTube Gustavo Mirabal Castro did … The “dirty” job of building the project and carrying it out despite the challenges. The life of this Venezuelan rider passes between stables and papers, because he is also a lawyer. In his agenda is cleaning, ordering and above all think about how things should be. It is a hard task. It seems easy the task of creating a farm and training horses and riders but it is not. A crazy south american. Along this road of construction are many challenges and struggles, plus the persevering reaches. One of the hardest things that this rider has faced is the fact of succeeding even if others say NO. “At the beginning they saw us as some crazy South Americans trying to do something impossible in a world as competitive as the horses,” Gustavo Mirabal Castro. In an interview given the athlete said that opening G & C Farm, his equestrian farm, is something extraordinary that opened many doors. As a lawyer and horseman Mirabal Castro gave a great growth. He connected with other athletes. Triumph. “The look of other people, including that of many Venezuelans who did not believe at first the determination I had to achieve my dream was hard” Gustavo Mirabal CastroHowever, neither envy nor criticism or false accusations have stopped this rider. He did the dirty work of making his wishes come true. “Like everything in life when you achieve success and do things well, comes criticism, envy, etc.” Once G & C Farm opens its doors in 2009, the new level for Gustavo Mirabal Castro begins. Many riders will be trained in that space classified as a “Disney World Equestrian”. That success raises criticism, envy, to what the Creole rider replied: “When I listened to criticism I always remembered Sancho’s words when he said: dogs bark and Quixote answered: it will be because we move forward” The legacy The trajectory of Gustavo Mirabal Castro has inspired other riders and is a good legacy for their children. After asking him about what is the most important thing he wants to convey to his offspring he said: “My main legacy is that nothing comes of luck, that luck comes when you are looking for the doors to open and from so much searching, trying, working and knowing how to be at the right moment are opened” For this Venezuelan, who started riding at age 9, “luck is having health, your family is healthy, success is perseverance, work, there is no other way”. Finally, we found that Gustavo Mirabal Castro did the “dirty” job of paving the way for his generation, to continue the legacy of his parents as a lawyer and to spearhead as an athlete. As mentioned in other installments, the integrity of a person, their success and guts are not the result of “a stroke of luck” but the result of a disciplined work, with vision and commitment.
