Well in my opinion online casino and every other habitual activity are just the same. It's just that people are different with each other, so some prefer this kind of things some don't.

A lot of things going on including, The Battle of Saratoga, something you've focused on and alerted people to: http://www.nytimes.com/2014/01/13/nyregion/upstate-opposition-to-a-casino-is-a-surprise.html?_r=0<br /><br />Something smelled funny, and it started me thinking as soon as I saw this story breaking: http://horsetalk.co.nz/2014/01/10/trainers-banned-massive-amounts-cobalt-horses/#axzz2pyVbs0LV<br /><br />And, what connection it might have played in Bob Baffert's wave of sudden horse deaths? Certainly of interest, was the fact that no veterinarian prescribed the Thyro-L given to all of Bullet Bob's horses in his barn at the time. Bullet Bob told the vet(s) to give it to them.<br /><br />An amazing mineral cobalt:<br /><br />http://healthlibrary.brighamandwomens.org/RelatedItems/19,cobalt<br /><br />But, could it have been Erythropoietin?<br /><br />My thought was cobalt, because it degrades so quickly.<br /><br />So kind of the CHRB to absolve Bob of any wrong doing, saying their investigation proved inconclusive. <br /><br />Interesting others like me made a connection to the Baffert Effect: http://tuesdayshorse.wordpress.com/2014/01/07/deadly-to-horses-the-baffert-effect-part-1/ <br /><br />http://tuesdayshorse.wordpress.com/2014/01/08/deadly-to-horses-the-baffert-effect-part-2/<br /><br />http://www.paulickreport.com/news/ray-s-paddock/is-cobalt-a-killer-in-horses/<br /><br />We are left to ponder why Bullet Bob could possibly order the veterinarian(s) to give all the horses in his barn Thyro-L, and not because they had thyroid issues. Something smells!!!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />August Songnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8711985.post-64951496534999237222014-01-14T21:35:15.265-05:002014-01-14T21:35:15.265-05:00Just noticed this which seems on topic, someone ap...Just noticed this which seems on topic, someone appreciates Drape's reporting;<br /><br />"Team Valor International will offer the Stan Bergstein Writing Award again in 2014 and has already nominated two stories for its panel of judges to consider.<br /><br />The award carrying a $25,000 prize is open to any story published in North America between November 2, 2013 and November 1, 2014 about horse racing.<br /><br />Frank Angst of the Blood-Horse and Joe Drape of the New York Times wrote the two stories that have been nominated."Figlessnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8711985.post-29659724895177986642014-01-14T21:32:36.987-05:002014-01-14T21:32:36.987-05:00On the subject of random thoughts, I was wondering...On the subject of random thoughts, I was wondering the NY Casinos will be closed on Palm Sunday? How about their inevitable 24 hour online websites?
