putting a traditional five-wire fence wasn’t an option and due to the landscape temporary fencing doesn’t make sense,” Jarvis says “We were left with trying to find another place to run cows or feed them hay and supplement through winter The cost of feeding the amount of cows we collared would have been about $26,000 so it’s far more financially friendly for us to use Vence than it is than any of our other options.” This technology also allowed Jarvis to keep the cows in locations they were already familiar with “Virtual fencing allowed us to run our cattle in two fields they already know and do really well which was a lot easier than putting them in a completely different field,” Jarvis says the BLM has two weeks from the date of containment to put together a fire recovery plan “The BLM office was under the clock to make decisions about the recovery and whether it will be seeded or it won’t be seeded “We had less than two weeks to make our decision and how we were going to operate.” The family worked with their local field office in Twin Falls and the Shoshone office to borrow a base station which had been used for a previous virtual fencing project They purchased the collars and batteries themselves Installing batteries and preparing collars to use for virtual fencing Easy-to-install collars are adjustable to fit each cow The Jarvis family uses virtual fencing collars and a base station on their BLM allotment to keep cows off area burned in wildfire The base station would be moved three times within the allotment to communicate based on where the cows were located Computer software shows where the virtual fencelines were and the movement of cattle throughout the boundaries Jarvis admits the first two weeks were a big learning curve as they had to work with Vence to determine where the base station would be located in relationship to the cows “We are moving the cows three different times so there will be three different base station locations and they had to be predetermined so we knew we had the right amount of coverage for grazing that area,” Jarvis says All this took place during the fall and one of the busiest times when the family was gathering While learning new technology on top of all the fall work was a little overwhelming Jarvis explains it was completely worth the extra effort “I think for us and other ranchers in our situation being able to use this tool and continue grazing after a fire has such a positive impact,” Jarvis says “I look around at all the fires that happened last summer and I know how many people have had to liquidate their herds or completely sell out energy and effort into building the genetics that are in your cow herd We probably would have been faced with some of those very same difficult decisions had we not had this technology available to use.” joined the Jarvis’ to help collar cattle and set up the system She says every ranch has different goals for using virtual fencing “Some ranchers are wanting to track their cows more easily even within interior fencing,” she says especially if you’re in very tough terrain Sometimes that fencing cost can be $15,000-$50,000 a mile When you have all those wildfires that are happening and it’s eight miles of fence rebuilding is too labor and cost prohibitive There are lots of different types of stakeholders who are always wanting to get engaged with our Vence system.” director or commercial operations with Vence which is a U.S.-based company owned by Merck Animal Health says Vence focuses on three pillars — profitability ‘how do I intend to make money using this technology?’” Tiller says saving on replacement or maintenance costs for fencing or replacing the cost of an employee to move fence.” Tiller also notes what’s unique about virtual fencing is the ability to utilize ancillary benefits which provide support to the main purpose of the operation “Ranching properties can also utilize wildlife habitat,” Tiller says if fishing is an income stream to the ranch and protecting your stream sides is something that will make you more money in the end you can exclude those cattle from going into the water and eroding the bank the second pillar — sustainability — can have multiple definitions we recognize wildfires aren’t going away,” he says “When you look at the western states with a majority of ranchers relying on public lands grazing if you don’t have fencing or funding to rebuild fences and you can’t keep cattle contained and manage the landscape “It’s not only sustainability of the resource “We can’t lose 50% of our rangelands and still have 28-29 million cows needing to graze.” Legacy is the third pillar that virtual fencing provides “Most everybody on the ranch has a dream of passing it down to the next generation and the only way we’re going to have the right to operate is by being really good stewards and making sure that the public understands how we are taking care of the land,” Tiller says prefer to pass on land at a better state than they inherit.” Vence was designed for big remote areas to incorporate LoRa (long-range communication) through a system of base stations and collars that work autonomously once the directions are set They utilize a high-density lithium battery mill spec battery designed to operate in the worse conditions from hot and humid in Florida to below freezing in Montana “We designed a robust system around cattle and rugged conditions and landscapes with very minimal communications that we can magnify,” Tiller says The concept of virtual fencing technology has been around for decades but continues to evolve Virtual fencing uses behavior modification based on audio and electrical cues from a collar device to keep cattle within a virtual boundary using GPS This geospatial technology uses satellites to pinpoint a location A virtual fence can also be used to keep animals out of certain areas Complete your personal information for a more tailored

But that hasn’t deterred generations of admirers inflamed and enlightened by Baldwin’s prose Seizing the occasion of the writer’s centennial year My first stop was a table at a Baldwin hangout the Café de la Place on Place du Général de Gaulle for a croque monsieur and a double espresso John the Divine: “You gave me a language to dwell in—a gift so perfect it seems my own invention I have been thinking your spoken and written thoughts for so long I have been seeing the world through your eyes for so long was ill from what was thought by some to be hepatitis physically and emotionally exhausted by his pace of creative output and downcast from a sputtering Civil Rights Movement yours truly (Jimmie B.) arrived in Vence rageful over America’s backsliding from a so-called “racial reckoning” in 2020 demoralized by the protracted war in the Middle East exhausted by the masks I’m often compelled to wear and feeling somewhat ill from the lingering consequences of high blood pressure and kidney transplantation I was going to kill somebody or be killed.” I came to realize as I roamed the back streets had made his home here not just to flee but to be enveloped in a place of permanence Saint-Paul de Vence has been settled for 1,000 years Its oldest quarters lie behind 50-foot stone walls In the backyard was his so-called WELCOME TABLE where he would receive Nina Simone and William Styron the residents took to the charming raconteur from Harlem who delighted in engaging in conversation with anyone His rented two-story cottage of stucco and stone stood behind high iron gates and the home where Baldwin lived and wrote The orchard on the grounds could sustain lemons In the backyard was his so-called Welcome Table the belatedly appreciated Black American painter whom Baldwin cared for in his later years On the mantel was the French Legion of Honor he was awarded in 1986 has no official acknowledgment of Baldwin’s homestead must navigate narrow cobblestone streets lined with galleries pouvez-vous me dire comment trouver l’endroit où vivait James Baldwin?” I haltingly asked the solemn-looking woman in l’office de tourisme “Je vois ‘Baldwin museum’ sur Google Maps?” I didn’t know if I should feel relieved or offended She brushed back her gray-streaked locks and leaned over the counter I have read this book many times.” In a flurry of only slightly accented English she told me she had lived for decades in Chicago When I asked what she missed most about her life in the States “I like the American way of getting things done exists only in books or in the stories the locals tell about him or in the spirit of those who come to find it The American exile who had embraced the République française had become the outcast once more—a figure quietly revered yet as did Lady Gaga and Celine Dion.)

Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur and sculpted hedge gardens surrounded by olive groves and lavender fields make it seem straight out of a fairytale preserving the illusion of a place frozen in time With a history dating back to medieval times the property served as a fortified building in Roman times It later became the stronghold of the Knights Templar in 1150 the castle lay in ruins until it was partially rebuilt by a Polish count Parisian industrialist Fernand Genève bought the estate and turned it into a hotel in 1954 The Oetker family became its owners in 1994 Photo 1 of 2 Panoramic views

The two windows beside the altar depict abstract forms synonymous with the hand of Matisse, entitled the ‘The Tree of Life’. On the wall behind the altar is a large image of St. Dominic Adorning the side walls are abstract images of flowers and an image of the Madonna and Child all created in black outlines on white tiles Rather than the usual image of clasping the child to herself Matisse chose to show Mary offering her son to the world On the back wall of the chapel are the traditional fourteen Stations of the Cross the fourteen stations are depicted individually; however Matisse chose to incorporate all of them on one wall in a single cohesive composition The vestments within the chapel use the ecclesiastical colours of the religious seasons: black There are also two doors carved out of wood designed by Matisse The chapel is the conclusion of hundreds of preparatory drawings and endless revisions photos and sketches are on display which show Matisse designing the chapel The exterior of the chapel can only be recognised by its blue and white tiles and its centrepiece of a wrought iron cross ordained with crescent moons and golden flames standing at an extraordinary thirteen meters high he ‘wanted those entering the chapel to feel themselves purified and lightened of their burdens’ | © Monica Arellano-Ongpin/Flickr The project was not without its opposition. Some of the Dominican Sisters fiercely resisted the work suggesting that they were baffled by the simplicity and abstraction prevalent within the painter’s work. Matisse’s contemporary, Pablo Picasso also declared that he was distressed and upset to see his fellow artist involved within a church project Henri Matisse was however a staunch atheist who once wrote that ‘my only religion is love of the work to be created He responded to Picasso’s complaints with a simple retort: ‘you are like me…what we both search for in art is the climate of our first communion.’ The Chapel of Our Lady of the Rosary was officially inaugurated on June 25th in 1951 and has been inviting travellers to experience this unique building at the crossroads of art and faith ever since Whilst the chapel was constructed for a religious purpose; the building stands forever as a testament to the enduring care that was shown to Matisse by Monique Bourgeois the artist’s relationship with Bourgeois affected him profoundly enough that he was inspired to create a building in her honour The spiritual space which he envisioned is indeed imbued with the ‘climate of a First Communion’ and a palpable love for the human condition The Rosary Chapel designed by Henri Matisse is located 466 Avenue Henri Matisse in Vence Sign up to our newsletter to save up to $800 on our
