Calgary Stampede: Pool C, Round 3 Winning Rides and Runs

Leslie Smalygo and her equine partner, Gus, had four straight days of barrel racing at the Calgary Stampede and on Championship Sunday, the duo only got faster. They came into the Semifinals the No. 1 team from Pool C with $18,000 won and their slowest time so far being a 17.14-second run. That would remain their slowest time of the week as they stopped the clock at 16.99 in the Semifinals before laying down a 16.94 in the Final Four.

Caitlin Tan wanted to breed her childhood horse, JP, because she’s been “amazing” — the type of animal any equestrian would be lucky to have once in a lifetime. Having access to coveted bloodlines increased the allure. Via the Miller Ranch, she could pair her 18-year-old mare with a stud descendent of Playboy’s Buck Fever.

A dangerous drug that is being mixed into fentanyl is causing those who inject it to develop a rash of sores that resembles a case of flesh-eating bacteria. People experiencing homelessness around Denver can sometimes be seen with these bloody, weeping wounds. I recently mentioned this phenomenon to a fentanyl user who told me about the xylazine connection.

Aurora’s pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness, which only allow a maximum 30-day stay, have been cycling the same individuals in and out, city staff told council members Thursday. Many return to street encampments when their time in the pallet shelter runs out, Jessica Prosser, homeless services director for the city, said. Then, the city sweeps the encampment again, and they get to come back to the shelter for another 30 days, Prosser explained. This process can repeat multiple times.
