ot on his toes. He's He is struggling And it's 40 30 But maybe he's just kind of Semi conserving energy for the fifth set Because he doesn't want to you know burst through the gas tank And then play the fifth set dying, you know So maybe he's kind of half In the fifth set already the way he's playing as he comes into the smash. That's a good very good smash And he gets the game As he gets the game and chapeau What's happening here? Raffa's like What's happening 42 Our raffa's getting a new racket. I think okay And he's but I can't understand what raffa's saying I think raffa wants to go to the bathroom The umpire's on the phone again I don't know if raffa's on the needs to go like leave the court or he's staying on the court, but I think he needs a I think he needs the physio to come back Oh They said maybe he doesn't have any clothes left to change because raffa might want to get changed before the fifth, okay So I guess raffa's saying I don't have any clothes left Anyways, we'll find out I guess soon enough for uh four two chapeau serving But it's only one breaker serve And that could change in an instant Because raffa Nadal can just go on a absolute tear Don't forget the party match starts in one and a half hours We'll be watching that one after this one as raffa hits it in the net 15 love 15 love chapeau Looking to go to a fifth Never come back from two sets of love down At a grand slam has chapeau Only in the davis cup And not against anybody like this And of course this time last year chapeau raffa Lost from two sets of love up quarter finals last year I'm sure he's I'm sure that's going through his head a little bit as well 30 love good four-hand there from chapeau I'm sure he's thinking about that too. He's going Shit, why do these kids keep coming back against me at this event in this? part of the tournament Quarter finals are a problem Fault there from chapeau second serve Into the front of chapeau and oh, sorry a point from raffa and chapeau serve volley second serve.  You're still playing raffa mate. Come on Come on now Don't do that. You can't be disrespecting raffa like that. Come on now 30 15 And chapeau has got to be careful not to give raffa a chance because raffa gets a chance He'll take it Serving out of the front of raffa goes in the net good serve chapeau 40 15 40 15 Chance to get the 5-2 here in the fourth Serve now from chapeau And the tee to the forehand of raffa forehand from chapeau to the forehand of raffa. That's a good shot. That's a winner from raffa And he's giving a little shake of the racket. He's like, okay. Oh, he's starting to fist pump now shout raffa. He's getting a little fired up Maybe those pills are starting to kick in Those pills are starting to kick in 40 30 He's still looking a little sore though raffa means He's looking stiff and sore but He hits a backhand return there Out from raffa and it's 5-2 chapeau ball off fourth set One game away from a fifth Okay Uh, by the way, we already had a match on today. We'll go around the courts Um and have a look at what actually has happened already today with the women's matches All right raffa serving to stay in the set He'll be just joining us raffa nadal won the first two sets really Uh without breaking much of a sweat I mean he does sweat a lot, but chapeau just didn't really come to play the last few sets though Especially the third set chapeau's turned it up and then the fourth set here Raffa's looked sick He's had medical. He's had um He's had a couple of magic Uh beans or pills. I don't know. He's had medication to try and settle down the stomach issue I think we have I think it's a stomach issue and I think he's half into the fifth set already raffa. He's just Saving himself for the fifth But he wants to serve first in the fifth raffa. You don't want to be we've seen the last two sets chapeau serving first is a problem in these sets so He want to win this game raffa make At least make him make it so he serves first in the fifth as he had to find the open court Chapeau hits it down the line raffa the volley and that's too good unbelievable 15 all Rod labor loves it and the crowd are definitely Crowd are definitely on it seems like they want raffa to Be competitive at least right Overall the the crowd are probably more raffa raffa in raffa's favor Just because raffa's a goat and they respect the hell out of him 15 all Serve down the tee chapeau gets it volley raffa chapeau gets that one it goes up It goes out 30 15 serve volley from raffa. You don't see that very often You can just tell that he You can just tell that he's just not Not really feeling it right now raffa the the spring and the step is gone. He's flat When you're feeling crappy and sick You don't really want to like be jumping around and energize do you? And here's a return there chapeau serve volley again raffa beautiful serve volley Great serve great volley 40 15 Very nice stuff here for raffa And he's doing his job and that is holding serve here Make chapeau sweat and then serve first in the fifth if we go that far Serve out wide And chapeau hits it out 5 3 raffa does his job Now chapeau volley has to serve to get to the fifth Never has chapeau won From two sets of love down at a grand slam Only once as you come back from two sets of love down and one that was in the davis cup And we all know only three times nadal has lost From a two set to love lead One of those was 12 months ago Before that five six years before that Six years before that too so every six years he loses once From two sets of love up And he's in danger of losing two times in a year Two times in a 12 month period and two sets of love up at the same tournament in the same round Against the same Next-gen opponent or a similar next-gen opponent and a one-handed backhand player don't mind don't mind that Goes out from chapeau uh-oh Love 15 Love 15 Raffa looks concerned. It looks tired raffa. He looks tired This shade is slowly starting to go across the court as well, which makes it very difficult For both guys when the ball goes from light to dark as that goes Along from chapeau on the serve second serve Served now to the back a point of raffa back in from chapeau goes outs love 30 Love 30 Hasn't had a break point since the second set raffa Has not had a break point Since the second set Love 30 Serve from chapeau find from raffa goes into the point of chapeau and that's a winner Unbelievable nice shot from chapeau 15 30 Nice shot Risky shot, but he gets it Last time he had a break point Raffa was at five Uh Was it uh three four in the second set when he broke chapeau It was the last time the only time the lord the last time an hour and a half ago 30 15 chapeau good serve raffa gets it back end chapeau into the back end of raffa Fallen out from chapeau down the line raffa with the point of his own goes into the point of chapeau Fallen out from raffa again to the forehand of chapeau raffa's gonna hit a good find there chapeau in trouble as he hits it out What was he doing? Chapeau just hit the ball straight down the middle where raffa was standing Not even making raffa move Silly from chapeau If you got you gotta make if he's sick you gotta make him run 15 40 raffa's coming back I told you there was gonna be chances I knew We've watched we've watched too much of chapeau to know that this is obviously gonna happen at some point Ha ha ha 15 40 Oh and an ace Ace from chapeau 30 40 Still break point break point for for nadal again chapeau needs another first serve I don't know if raffa wants to I think he wants to play the fifth. I don't know if raffa wants to fight back here and use energy Save the energy Not saying that he's gonna give away the set, but anyways flying from chapeau is another winner. That's a good shot But like the worst thing that could happen for raffa right now is if he comes back And then loses the set in a tie break He's gonna waste so much. You're gonna use so much energy But we know raffa's not gonna give away sets, but again, it's not the worst thing if he loses this set Keep that energy for the fifth Yeah, you know if you come back and you don't win It's a lot of energy you've used up through that through those games coming back Doos now Chapeau with an ace and raffa doesn't even try and get it. He's like, ah bugger it. It's too far Can't reach. He's like, uh, can't reach it. It's too far away Advantage now chapeau set point For a fifth for a fifth This is why we stay to watch this match And all tennis matches. This is what we do serve Is a fault from chapeau second serve Chapeau to the four of now. Oh, that's out. We're going five. We are going five We didn't think we're gonna get there We thought raffa was gonna wrap it up in three But denis chapevalov forces a fifth now Raffa, is he gonna leave? Yes.  Oh my bad There we go He kind of had a medical break in that last uh in that last set so we'll see what happens. Okay Let's answer some questions The question jerk So he's left the uh He's left the court I don't know what raffa's left the court and i'm not sure what I think there's like a I'm just trying to fix the scoreboard for everybody. Um Yeah, I'm not sure if um Are they having like a 10 minute break like a between points because I think that's With the heat rule they're allowed to do that between the fourth and fifth Um, all right, let's answer questions while we have a chance now How are we doing the question? How are we doing? How are we feeling in the chat? Nervous excited tired Uh Any other emotions Hungry I don't know I don't know some of you might be hungry Uh, what's the difference between saving energy and the best effort vile and the best effort violation I'm not sure about best effort violation. Oh, I'm not putting enough effort um Well, it's I mean it comes down to What it looks like I guess for the umpire's discretion, right? Need a snack. Okay feeling pumped nice Eating right now nice game of the year contender It comes down to this final set if this set goes the way that we want it to go And that's like six all in the final that would be epic. That would be a match of the year for sure um stomach upset, yeah Quick checking on our boys on the double court while we wait for rafer Yeah, so kereos and kokinakis are about to go five two in the final set of their doubles match So we'll keep an eye on that as well um Tdi uses your voice over in his what?

Thank you Who have a thank you doc pedia for bringing that up? Nadal's coming back Nadal's coming back And raffa apparently went for the went to the toilet during that break Which is not allowed there's a big break here Raffa went off to get changed and he's back now All right, let's answer more questions, but thank you. Um doc pedia for bringing that up Look if you ask for permission to use the use some of the stuff and that's fine But if you just rip it off and not even talk that's come on come on now stop stealing shit um Good grief the joker does this all the time joker is well known for medical time outs It's not a medical time out for raffa.

So what we're gonna do Is I'm gonna I'll answer questions at the change of ends But other than that we're going point for point from the start. We're not missing a not missing a shot in this one We're going point for point shot for shot I'll answer questions at the end of the games when we can have time And it's now raffa serving at the start of the fifth this Is epic This is why we watch tennis Serve out wide to the back of the chapeau that goes out raffa first point 15 love He's looking fresh raffa. He's got a new shirt He's looking a lot More refreshed you probably chunked water on his face while he was down out under the under the grounds He was having stomach problems in the second It's a hot day. It's still you know 30 degrees Out there as raffa serves an ace out wide bang 30 love Now we're gonna have to go through as well The five set records for these lads because of course the dals won a bunch of five setters But chapeau how many has he won he's already won one this this week. So We've got to talk about that as well And is raffa gonna start screaming and shouting because we haven't seen that much either We haven't seen much vocalized Vocals from raffa I've played him twice and like i'm sorry, but if you can't beat me like you're not the greatest of all time You're not the greatest of all time You're not the greatest of all time You're not the greatest of all time You're not the greatest of all time Hey, thank you ace coin for the 10. Thank you so much mate. Appreciate that Welcome back mate. Hopefully having a good one as raffa double folds for the 10th time 30 15 Interesting records five set records these guys have Lot more shade on the court this set true Jacob jacob as well. Yeah very true lot more shade on the court In about 10 minutes will be completely in shade Served now raffa to the back end of chapeau goes to the forehand of raffa Foreigner from chapeau again to the forehand of raffa to the forehand of chapeau Who hits a winner and chapeau is making raffa run into the sun Chapeau is playing very smart here. He knows that that shade to sun combination is a very tough To see the ball come out of the shade and go into the sun If it's messes with your eyes and your vision and it messes with your depth perception So he knows that and chapeau is making the most of this game Especially because it probably is the last game that will have the shade and sun Half and half or at least on the court and off the court fold from raffa 30 all first game of the final set second serve double fold 11th double fold of the match 30 40 And now we've know that he has stomach problems. We don't know if we we assume that it was Not muscle. We thought it was just like sickness But then again, you don't want to really stretch if you have a stomach problem, do you? If you're really sick As we had a serve from raffa. That's an ace and a fist bump to go with that We haven't seen raffa do that for a while Back to deuce Two double folds in this game by the way And chapeau nowhere near that and the grit of the teeth from raffa deuce Three hours and 30 minutes coming up Serve down to the front of chapeau that goes out raffa gets the first gets the advantage And a bit of a come on there from raffa as well advantage raffa four out of four minutes in this first game It's a big first game raffa serves Into the back in a chapeau Well when you try to catch the ball in the racket there raffa and he couldn't do the trick shot second serve Second serve to the back end of chapeau four now from raffa into the front of chapeau hits the tape goes in Raffa with a forehand goes into the back end of chapeau to the slice of raffa Four now from chapeau down the line raffa on the stretch gets it four again from chapeau Into the front of raffa who goes down the line chapeau with a slice raffa hits a forehand open court Chapeau with a backhand raffa volleys open court chapeau pass and raffa gets it First game ghost of raffa One love final set How'd he get that raffa? He just stuck the racket out and he got to the ball just a flick Chapeau had that point. He had that point He just stabbed the he just swung at it and he stabbed it over Unbelievable that's a one metal mouse. That's it unbelievable And he's fired up raffa. He's given the double fist bump there He knows that was big He knows that was big and he's starting to run to the baseline now. He's moving a little bit quicker raffa He's looking a little bit better. All right chapeau serving second In this final set.  They go into the semis four and down from chapeau goes long love 15 love 15 Man raffa. You can tell on his face. He just looks tired and Wrecked. He's like, oh all right.

It's 30 40 No one was talking about that when jokovic went to court were they?

So He's been out here a fair bit as we had a four-on-a-four rally This goes into the find of chapeau find it from raffa on the stretch backhand from chapeau in the net And raffa is just hanging on here chapeau's missing backhands advantage raffa man 27 errors from nadal half of those are double faults So the ground strokes have not been a problem for raffa. It's been the serve But chapeau the ground strokes have been a big problem 37 errors A few double faults in there as well advantage raffa to get to three love in the final set He serves out wide at the front of chapeau back in our raffa is shanked and it's wide Good return from chapeau off the first serve back to deuce back to deuce Eight minute game this one Jesus Back to deuce Massive game. I feel like this is a massive game for chapeau if he gets this game We're back on But if raffa gets this it might just break chapeau's heart good serve volley raffa. Oh, it hits the tape it goes over raffa gets lucky top of the tape He could have probably hit the volley for a winner, but It hit the tape and it went over and chapeau had no chance And chapeau collapses. He's like were you kidding me? advantage raffa He serves a fault to love final set raffa hanging on in this game hanging on to that lead as he serves Into the front of chapeau falling from raffa again to the front of chapeau into the back end of raffa Falling again from chapeau to the back end of raffa back in there from chapeau again To the back end of raffa a chapeau keeps going to the raffa back end He's now in control back into the line is long from chapeau and raffa survives He stays in front with a break three love raffa final set final set Now let's talk about five set records so Dennis chapeau ball of on a hard court in five sets.

He has an easy service game for a minute Serve Is a fault this could be four hours by the way, it's three hours 52 minutes It started in a heat and it's still pretty hot, but at least now it's in the shade second serve Raffa to the four end of chapeau four and a from raffa into the forehand of chapeau who hits a winner down the line Raffa not running for that one 40 15 40 15 And great return. That was what set up that forehand from chapeau Very nice return and Carlos moe is like I can't even watch It's Carlos moe in the Hall of Fame.

He usually that usually qualifies you To get into the Hall of Fame, but I don't know if he's inducted yet He should be especially for his coaching right now. He's been a backer now from chapeau It's still a chance for raffa to get a 4-1 as chapeau is down the line raffa the forehand for whatever chapeau in the net Raffa survives that game and he gets a 4-1 Still only one breaker serve, but raffa is two games away from the semis Okay, now if you're new to the channel, welcome.

I mean, he didn't know what to do He was confused His serving wasn't working and his ground strokes were garbage then He got the third set shapo. He played a lot better. Then raffa got sick And shapo won the fourth But at the start of this set after a about a five ten minute break between the fourth and fifth sets raffa came back got the break early and he's held on ever since but Shapo's had his moments to get back in this set and I have a feeling he's going to get another one potentially in the next couple of games So maybe shapo can make this go a little bit longer Don't forget barty and pagoola are coming on after this We're going to watch that And then we're going to watch baritini melt my face We're going to watch them all And we're going to watch tomorrow's matches too, which the schedule is after tomorrow. So we'll talk about that at the end of this match Women are playing first and the men playing later And this time tomorrow we could be witnessing another one of these matches with sinner and sissy pass. So Get ready for that okay 30 love shapo doing well here To survive but he's going to have to rely on a little bit of help from raffa You'd expect in one of these service games as shapo goes bang with the backhand 40 love perfect game here for shapo The perfect game for shapo If you are just joining us as well, um Madison keys Beat cred to cobra to get to the semis serve Is an ace from shapo? And that is the perfect game for shapovalov Just get that game out of the way and look on the break look for the break four two raffa eight points away It's never that easy though eight points away eight points away Much love. Oh, uh, what's up everybody? Sorry, I haven't read the chat. We'll get to the chat at the end of this game promise Get your questions ready at the end of this game Next change of ends. I'll answer questions four two nadal to hold on to the break Serve to the front of shapo back in a raffa to the front of shapo and he oh he pulls it wide Shapo pulls it wide He's got to stay aggressive, but man. Oh man he just just Open the shoulders too early And he pulled it wide 15 love Raffa with the serve our wide great serve from raffa unbelievable That's clutch. That's clutch 30 love 30 love And he's looking he's still looking sore though raffa. He's not looking He's still looking a little sick But he would take every point he can get six points away from the match mind you return from shapo goes out Raffa 40 love is the best game raffa could have asked for The perfect game for raffa 40 love Great serving from raffa in this fifth set He is not letting shapo get into this set Especially into his games, which is something shapo has to do to come back And a fault from raffa second serve Taking the time raffa second serve Our wide shapo gets it raffa can't get that one good return from shapo. Whoo So what shot 40 40 15? The five points raffa five points away Four hours played by the way just ticked over four hours Just ticked over four hours Taking again the time here raffa as he serves Down the tee shapo hits it out raffa five two Raffa five two one game away From the semis and he doesn't lose many semifinals in this tournament. He's got a pretty damn good record in the semis Okay, mac, I'll answer questions. Um, all right Four points away. That's it Four points away castmo was nominated to the class this year But failed. Oh, so he was he's on the cusp of being in the Hall of Fame then all right A lot of raffa fans in the house A lot of raffa fans in the house Um, mask of a truce champion he win even if he's battling weary.

Thank god long live the bull long live the bull Long live the bull I love that. I love that. Oh, we're good donations. Let's play some donations Goat knows how to get things done Vamos Respect to shopper future slam winner goat of goats brings the best when tested Clutch raffa champ trophy Thank you mana. Hi. Yep goat doing goat things raffa doing raffa things. We know what it's all about I believe they don't care about what they were saying Working for most corrupt sport all time Midi had to beg for bathroom breaks and was denied raffa is assistant bathroom break 11 minutes between sets Uh, Nathan, sorry. Look, it is what it is The rule the new rule that came in this year and I don't know, you know, look It is what it is Did that hurt chapeau? It probably didn't help but was it a big factor in the final set? I don't think that you know five 10 minute break between sets was really a big deal. Anyway, raffa speaking. Let's have a listen Rava said I'm absolutely destroyed after that It's very very warm Honestly, I didn't practice before this match because of the weather Little bit lucky at the at the start of the fifth Little bit lucky. Uh, I think at the beginning of the match I was playing great Then I know how difficult it is to play against a player like Dennis It's very talented and very crazy If he was if he was serving uh, huge And especially the second serve He was serving big. Yeah, the chapeau was hitting a lot of good second serves Uh, so I didn't get it. I get into the games and I started to feel it more tired and then he pushed me now So yeah for me, it's a bit. It's an amazing honestly to be in the semi-finals And they're going to talk about the doctor as well. So we'll find out what raffa had What what was going on with raffa? Uh, so jim says, uh, we we saw the doctor in the fourth. We saw the trainer Uh, the change of hands, uh, looked like you had tablet or something. What was the problem? So this is my raffa. This is the problem with raffa. He said I started feeling unwell Uh, in my stomach, uh, so I just asked if I could have something Uh, that I could, you know Swallow some something that I could take They take it for the tension They checked but everything was all right on my body And then I I took some tablets and tried to improve my stomach problem That I had so we had to start so he's confirmed stomach problem not a muscle problem. So thank god He ain't ain't injured. He's just sick. You can get over that in a couple of days He's got three days until his next match plenty of time Um, so did you get better? Did you improve? I think I was lucky. Um, I was serving great in the fifth set Um, I don't know how that I don't know that you were lucky. You're very rarely lucky says jim Uh, but this year it's a difficult, uh, it's on a different than the past few years At least trying to open your in uh, you're playing the quarter finals on tuesday Normally you would play the semi finals on the thursday I believe Sorry lisa We're getting to that in a second. Thank you for the donation. Anyway, so now she's he's playing that He's playing on a friday the semi finals usually on thursday now. It's on a friday this year So the men's semi finals both take place on a friday two days off between now and then for raffa Is that an important thing for you? Giving your experience so far this tournament and he says yes very important Unless it was uh, at least it was a great test today I hope and really believe that i'm going to be ready for the semifinals Uh, it's everything to be able to play one more time here in the world Um In the the semifinals match much so excited for that happy and just thank and uh, thank you enough everybody for the support Uh, and then jim's talking about number 21 Uh, you may not know but 21 years ago Uh, but you're going for number 21 I know it's I know that's a big deal. Uh, we'll table that But I want to see a big picture the last six months. We've been very difficult for you Uh, we didn't see you on tour because you've had the foot problem and you then covenant Uh, you got covered just before uh in december before coming here and now the stomach issue Uh, he wrote and then and um, you know, I said I mean I mean all of what i'm doing. Uh, you surprised. Oh here we go. I surprised Are you surprised you're unable to undergo? Yeah, are you surprised you're over you can overcome these things? Uh, and play at this level and get to a semifinal So yeah, he's gone through a lot lately. He got covered. He bloody got foot problems Um, and then raffa says, uh, yeah, it's uh, it's great to create history in this stuff But the real thing at the real truth is that the last two months Uh ago, we didn't know if I will be able to play and back on tour So here I am for me just to be just a president of life, uh that I am playing tennis again and I just enjoy it Uh Thank you so much, uh for the match you and Dennis gave Um, a real treat. Thank you says jim. All right. So raffa Nadal is happy to be there And we're happy to have him All right, everybody. So what we're gonna do is we are going to Sign off and come back. Thank you for the donation. Lisa appreciate that. Thanks for the two I'm gonna sign off grab a tea because my voice is shredded So, uh, we're gonna come back.  We're gonna go live again. Uh, thank you everybody who subscribed you guys absolute legends Thank you for sticking around for the whole Two matches we watched seven hours of tennis already today Uh, and look we got treated with an absolute epic between raffa And chapeau to our favorites on the channel here big favorites on the channel here Appreciate everybody my poor voice. Uh, look worth it. It's worth it By the way, this is officially the biggest pro might be the biggest australian open match we've ever done So, uh, worth it worth it. And we still get to watch raffa again in a couple of days time Thank you everybody. We'll see you guys in about 20 minutes time Poor barney versus pagulla and then we've got to find out who raffa's playing in the semifinals between veritini and monfice So see you guys soon raffa gets the win five sets against denis chapeval of six four Sorry six three six four four six three six six three Man this this guy he's an absolute god


All right. When people talk about getting attention, hey, did I get your attention? It's all about, I probably freaked out Dylan behind the camera, but it's all about getting attention.  A few things that I think about in the modern age that we've applied to our business, to get attention is being unique, doing things differently, but also think outside the box when you do something, think outside the box, think about taking some action, think about doing something that someone else didn't do. Grant Cardone spoke at our 8% Insurance Wealth Conference and he talked about how he paid 40 grand. He sat on the front row at the World Series and he pulled out his 10X flag every once in a while. We did the 8% Insurance Wealth Conference, a thousand people at an NFL stadium with Grant Cardone and Ray Lewis. Did that get attention? Are we going to be doing other things in a gigantic way and thinking big and focused on getting your attention? Yes. So in your business, I want you to think the exact same way. So moving forward, when you're thinking about doing something, when you're thinking about something making sense and thinking about doing something specific, think about how you can do it differently than someone else did. Think about how you can get the attention of your local market. You've got to be unique. You've got to take action. You've got to invest some money and you've got to think big. But in business, in marketing, in branding, whatever we do now, it's all about getting attention.


So welcome you all to Jakeway Forest. This is one of our nice, great areas in Buchanan County. We have 37 different areas that the County Conservation Board manages. And Jakeway Forest is one of our premier forests, our largest upland forest we have in the county. It also has a lot of history to it, and this bridge is going to be a great addition. It actually links up two sections of our park. The wildlife area forest is the managed forest on this side, and then on the east side we have more developed area, which includes a campground, a picnicking area, and one of the best historic sites for interpreting daily pioneer life in Buchanan County and northeast Iowa. When you're done, you're going to have the ability to walk around the grounds a bit, and a couple things that you'll notice is there's a nice lime chip trail that goes around the historic site with some really nice signs that were just completed last year. It helps tell the story of the historic site. And then the actual house is open. So if you want to walk into the house, you can take a look at the inside of the old house. We have with us also our park ranger, Mike Van Raden, who lives on site, and some other workers, Jeremy Whittle and Chris Hansen. And I see Gladys over here, who's on our Richardson-Jakeway Foundation, which is a group that fundraises for the historic site. Actually, that little history behind the historic site is that a man named Abiyathir Richardson first settled. On the other side of the river built a log cabin in 1849, but eventually built the structure that you'll see here, the old Richardson-Jakeway house in 1851. And soon after that, a town developed around here that was called Buchanan. It was also colloquially called Mudville. And one reason it was called Mudville is because a stage would come through here, and it was very muddy, and it was muddy for other reasons too. And so it got that name. The house is going to eventually have more furnishings in it. We're right now working on putting together a grand to get some actual period furniture in the house, paint some of the walls, do some wallpaper, and make it look more like a home that you would walk into in 1851 or so. If you have any other questions about the house, feel free to talk to me or Mike or Gladys as you're walking around. A couple other things I have to mention, you'll see a lot of construction going on around there. We're doing two projects right now. The old barn foundation is being worked on, and we're pouring a new cement foundation for one of the walls, and then we're right now finishing up on a new shower house project that's going to serve as a shower house and a storm shelter, have flush toilets and restrooms, and be a really important addition. Also have a dump station, so it's going to be a nice attraction out here at Jakeway Park. Again, if you have any questions afterwards, I appreciate all that you guys do in engineering and getting this bridge put together, and again, the transportation between the parts of the park here is really important to what we do, so thank you for coming. I'm Mike Farter. I'm a McKenna County supervisor, and I'd like to welcome you here on this beautiful day for ribbon cutting of a bridge. I wish I could take responsibility for this nice day, but I can't. This was truly a group effort. It took a lot of teamwork and a lot of groups to get together and put this bridge together. Everybody from individuals to groups, and a lot of different entities that went in on this. I'd like to thank everyone who had anything to do with this bridge, sincerely. It turned out a nice bridge for our area, for our citizens of McKenna County, the state, and stuff like that. I think it'll be interesting to see people from other states coming here, and other countries even, to visit this here, kind of, I don't want to say experiment, but this venture, a new venture that's only been done once before. I now would like to introduce Norm MacDonald, the director of bridges and structures from the Department of Transportation of Iowa. Well, first, I'd just like to congratulate McKenna County and all the project partners on the successful completion of this innovative bridge project. The ceremony today celebrates the third ultra-high performance concrete bridge in the country. And actually, the first ultra-high performance concrete bridge in the country was also built in Iowa. So you could say Iowa is a national leader in the area. We have Brian Moore of Guapolo County is here today with us. These types of projects give an excellent opportunity to the state DOT and our project partners in the design, fabrication, mixing, and casting of ultra-high performance concrete. The Jakeway Bridge was initiated in 2005 with a innovative bridge research and construction proposal for the design, fabrication, and testing of the bridge. The Jakeway Bridge is the first bridge to use the pie girder shape, which was developed by Federal Highway Ben Graybill. And the pie girder shape is composed of a monolithic section, which includes the deck and the supporting beams. The bridge was also nominated for an award at the Innovative Quality Initiative Workshop in Ames, which is held every two years. That workshop is to recognize outstanding high-quality bridge projects. And this bridge received the Research Merit Award. So I'd like to congratulate the partners again, and thanks for the opportunity to speak. Thanks, Norm. At this point in time, we'll turn it over to Dr. Benjamin Graybill from the Federal Highway Administration, who can give us a few words on the process and their perspective on the Federal Highway perspective on it. Thank you. I'll just say from Federal Highway's perspective that I'd like to congratulate everybody who had a part in this project. It certainly is a project of great importance to us at Federal Highway. We've been working on the use of advanced cementition materials and things like all type performance concrete, specifically for the past eight years. This is the third bridge nationwide that we have succeeded in completing. There's a number of other bridges that are in process right now. This one really is significant because it's the first time that we're using these types of advanced materials in a way that really does make the best use of their advanced properties. This is the sort of bridge, although we certainly intend to use it more widely, many more structures, larger span structures, more high-volume structures. But this is the type of structure that we see having a lot of potential for solving a lot of the problems that we have with our highway infrastructure right now in terms of being able to construct bridges more quickly and being able to construct bridges that will have significantly longer life spans. So again, I'll just congratulate everyone who's worked on this. Certainly want to thank the Iowa Department of Transportation for their willingness to be innovative and to look forward and see the potential for what we can do with these sorts of outgrowths of our research projects. So thanks. Thank you, Dr. Grebel. At this point in time, we'll turn it over to Vic Perry, who's coming in from Lafarge, our Representative Lafarge, and Vic's coming in from Calgary, Canada to talk to us on this. Thank you, Victor. Thank you, Brian. I'd like to thank everybody for showing up today. Obviously, your attendance here is very important. I'd like to recognize our dignitaries, and I'd also like to thank Brian for organizing it. I think it's a great job organizing the event, Brian. I just want to touch on three points, and I want to talk a little bit about the material briefly and a little bit of the historical perspective and touch on the significance of the project, because I think that's already been done by the previous two speakers in terms of the significance of this project, but I would further like to talk about that just briefly. Just to put the material in perspective, if you talk about normal concrete that would be in your host basement, we're talking about a concrete that has 3,000 psi or pounds per square inch compressive strength. So it's 3,000 pounds of strength on your normal host concrete basement. Now, if we go to high-performance concrete, which you'll find in the columns of high-rise buildings, that concrete is going to be in the range of 10,000 psi. So it's like 3 times stronger than your host basement concrete. The material we're standing on here, ultra-high-performance concrete, is 30,000 psi and compressive strength. So it's basically 10 times stronger than the concrete that's in your host basement, just to put it in perspective to give you an idea on the mechanical properties of this material. But it's also 5 times stronger in tension. And what that means is that when you load the bridge and it deflects, at some point you may get some cracking in the girder. You'll get some deflection. But even though it cracks, the material has the ability to withstand the cracking and carry further load beyond that cracking point. So it has what we call a ductile property. It doesn't break brittily like normal concrete will. So it has a ductile failure, which gives you early warning that the bridge may be an overload or distress situation, for example. And because this material has this ductile property, we at Lafarge branded the name of the material as ductile. So ductile comes from the ductility in the material. This material also has a very high abrasion resistance, very similar to granite. It has an impermeability lower than granite. So it is very durable in terms of withstand freezing and thawing and abrasion and various degradations that cause concrete to deteriorate over time. So we expect this material to last significantly longer. In the late 80s, there was a lot of R&D began on this material. And it was in 1997 that the very first bridge was built anywhere in the world. It was a pedestrian bridge. And in 1999, the Federal Highway became very interested in this material and started to work and develop applications in the bridge market. And as Ben Gravel mentioned previously, it has great interest in the Federal Highway in terms of going forward. Why is the Federal Highway really interested in this material? Well, normal concrete bridges deteriorate over time. You have a lot of rebar in the bridge. You get cracking from loading and fatigue. Salt eventually can ingress into the cracking, cause some corrosion in the rebar, and you get deterioration in the bridge tax. So the big advantage in using this material is to eliminate that type of deterioration and extend the life of the bridge significantly. And that means that you have lower maintenance, longer life. And due to the strength of the material, you can now start to talk about longer spans that are more slender and carry higher loads. And this bridge really demonstrates that we can build bridges with this material and demonstrates to engineers that you can use the material in a real construction and build bridges that will withstand in the future. So I would like to concur with the previous speakers and congratulate the Iowa DOT and Buchanan County on the construction of this bridge. I think it's a significant milestone in being the first bridge to have this material in the actual deck. So congratulations and thanks to everybody. At this point in time, we'll go ahead and have a ribbon cutting ceremony on it. And if everybody may as well join in and grab a hold of the ribbon as we do it. So we'll move on over there and thank you.


The idea of giving a public speech is something that makes a lot of people nervous. Public speaking beats out most other top reported fears, including spiders, snakes, and flying. I teach high school language arts, drama, and speech, and being able to present a good speech is one of the most crucial skills that employers and colleges are looking for as students leave high school. Communication is what allows us to form connections with other people to inspire change and to teach, which is what leads to progress. Yet often I encounter students who are incredibly nervous about actually getting up there and giving a speech or giving them a presentation in front of people.  And so the top thing that I like to focus on is having students be prepared. I like to break that down into two different areas of preparation, preparing their content and then preparing themselves for delivering their speech. So the first thing I want to talk about is preparing their content. Okay, it's if you have a strong content, if you feel knowledgeable and have done your research and what it is you're talking about that's going to come across and how you're speaking and it's going to make you a more confident speaker. So you need to make sure that your students have done their research thoroughly and then guide them through a logical outline, which will help them remember what their speech is going to be. But the one thing that I stress in terms of content is what I call the power areas. Having these three strong power areas is really going to help them make a large impact on their audience in a short amount of words. So the three power areas that I want to talk about is having a really strong hook, having a strong thesis statement and having a strong closing line. The student's hook is going to be their opening line for the speech and it's really important to have that be strong because they want their audience to be engaged from the very beginning. Having an audience that's listening to what you're saying, that's active, that's nodding is going to increase your confidence as a speaker. And what I suggest to the students particularly nervous is to use a joke or a funny story as their hook. It's going to cause the audience to laugh and hopefully it's going to cause you as the speaker to laugh, which is going to relax the mood in the room. It's going to relax the speaker and people like to laugh. They like to be happy. So it's going to create an instant bond between the speaker and their audience. The next area that's really important to make sure that it's strong and well prepared is going to be the thesis statement. Thesis statement should come at the very end of your introduction and it's going to set up what your topic is and how you're going to prove it. It provides a framework for the audience so that they know what to expect for the rest of the speech. Typically what I advise students do is they give whatever claim they're going to be making and three to five reasons. And so I believe blank and I'll show this to you by one secondly by doing this and finally by doing this. That's going to set up a map so that the audience knows what to expect in the coming speech. The third power area that I want to talk about is the closing line. Having a powerful closing line is really crucial because that last line is what the audience leaves remembering. It gives you as the speaker one lost opportunity to kind of go over with your audience what your message and what the purpose of your speech is going to be and you need to make sure that your students carefully plan out that closing line so that they're not standing up there at the end of the speech. Not really sure how they should end thinking. Well, thank you guys is I'm done. OK, make sure that they end with a bang that they leave the audience leaving the speech and thinking about it for hours and days afterward. OK, so once you've kind of helped solidify their content, you can move on to helping your students prepare themselves for the speech. And there's a lot of different areas and ways to do this. But the two I want to talk about are help your students be poised and be positive about the speech. If they have good poise, hopefully that will transfer into the other areas of the speech. So under poise, you want to talk about feeling confident in what you're presenting. So you want to make sure that your students dress for success and that the image that they're presenting of themselves. Is one that they're happy with that they go out there feeling confident. Also under that is going to be posture, having a strong posture, walking in there with your head held high and your shoulders back is going to make you look more confident and sound more confident, which hopefully will in turn make you feel more confident. Also under poise is smiling. OK, studies have shown that smiling will actually increase your mood. So even if you're nervous, putting on a smile is going to make you feel better. And again, it's going to help you relate with your audience. You want to look out into the crowd, smile at them and keep that smile going when it's appropriate throughout that speech. Along with smiling, you want to make sure that you're positive and passionate about what it is you're talking about. When you're giving a speech, you want to try to engage the audience. And how can you expect for your audience to be interested in what you're saying if you're not even showing that you're interested in it yourself?  Ideally, your students are speaking about something which they are excited to talk about. They're excited to share their knowledge with their audience. Encourage them to let that enthusiasm and that excitement shine through in their speaking. So I teach that the key to successful public speaking is in proper preparation. Students need to make sure that they prepare their content through thorough research, organization and making sure that they have really strong power areas and in preparing themselves in regards to poise and making sure that they're bringing a positive attitude to the speech. These skills are really going to help increase confidence when they're speaking and hopefully lead to more confident speeches.  If they put some attention into the preparation that I talked about today, hopefully these skills will be able to come out in your students.
