In closing multiple raceway slots parlours and planning to step away from the economic machine which is the slots-at-racetracks program, the Provincial Liberal Government has essentially taken the stance that employing 60000 Ontarians, raking in more than $1.36-billion in direct annual revenue, and creating $2-billion in annual economic impact for the province is not worth trumpeting, let alone saving.

Timbersled Mountain Horse at 2012 Jackson Hole Hill Climb - Snow Bikes [04:35]

Derick flew up the hill on his KTM 450SX with an SX MH. Reagan made it over the top on his Kawasaki 450 and ST kit. Allen made it very close to the top where it got too icy for his kit to make it.

Highlights of 09 NFR Barrel Racing [05:35]
These are barrel racing highlights from the 2009 National Finals Rodeo. I don't think these ladies get the credit they deserve. Their horses are highly-trained athletic machines. It simply would not be a rodeo without these cowgirls and their barrel wizards.
