2) Jack Kelly, CEO of the World Games 2010 Foundation, has resigned his post, effective July 31, according to an article on Kentucky.com. Kelly cited "several personal reasons" for his resignation, according to the article. This is the first time the World Equestrian Games has been held outside Europe. The games bring 900 horses, 800 riders, 60+ nations, 16 days, 8 world championships together. Also, 6,000 horse loving volunteers from around the world are required for the 2010 games in Lexington, Kentucky -- there are still spots available! look it up online.

3) this is actually almost old news now, but still interesting. Hundreds of trainers withdrew their horses from competition at a major Tennessee Walking Horse show last weekend after USDA inspectors arrived on the scene to examine horses for violations of the Horse Protection Act. -- source
