1 opening.The park services decision will save U.S. taxpayers roughly $150,000,
but it would have cost the cites of Cody and Jackson Hole
much more because they depend on park-related tourism.In response, city
officials held a joint fundraiser and collected enough money to pay the
state to clear the roads, ensuring the gates will be open on
time.We needed to act, and if there was a way that we
could make a difference we wanted to do that because people rely
on that opening date, said Mayor Nancy Tia Brown. And the moment
that the park gate opens, things are different in Cody."Officials told Fox
many of the donations came from businesses that stood to lose revenue
if the gates didnt open on time for the tens of thousands
of visitors."We work on a 20-week tourism season, and if the first
two weeks are going to be taken out because the park's not
open, that's a big deal," said James Blair, of Blair Hotels.In central
Florida, a Head Start program directed to cut 5 percent from its
budget as a result of sequester decided to temporarily stop contributions
to the employee-retirement fund, instead of cutting services. The decision
was made with support from staffers, according to The Tampa Bay Times.The
program provides child care and other services for preschool children from
low-income families and for disabled children from families of all incomes.

injured Sunday when his horse stumbled and he pitched into the dirt
track at the hippodrome on the outskirts of the capital, Ashgabat. But
the fall was certainly a wound to the pride of the 55-year-old
Central Asian leader, whose all-powerful personality cult portrays him as
effortlessly competent.Thousands of people were in the stands for the race
that celebrated Turkmenistan's renowned desert racehorse breed, the Akhal-Teke.
But state television's video of the race cut off just before the
fall and the extensive written reports on the event didn't mention the
plunge.All domestic broadcasting in Turkmenistan is state-run; newspapers
are either state-run or under heavy government supervision. Media criticism
of the president is non-existent and elaborate praise of him is ubiquitous
in this nation of 5 million, wedged between the Caspian Sea and
Iran, Afghanistan and Uzbekistan.Turkmenistan's security agencies reportedly
went into high gear to try to block video or images of
the president's fall from slipping out to the rest of the world.
The opposition-in-exile group Gundogar cited witnesses as saying police
were carefully checking the computers, tablets, mobile phones and cameras
of departing passengers at Ashgabat's airport. The horse celebration had
attracted an array of foreign horse enthusiasts.Video obtained by The Associated
Press shows a rider falling when his horse stumbles just after crossing
the finish line
