The visit

If you want to give horseback riding a try, Cacapon, Lost River and Pipestem Resort all have stables and guided trail rides. Here's what you need to know about ...

The best thing about horseback riding at Pipestem Resort is that you have access to so many other outdoor adventures, resort amenities and overnight accommodations. One of the best things about Lost River State Park’s remote location is that visiting gives you an excuse to rent a remote campsite or cabin and get away for a weekend or longer. Camp Creek is known for beautiful waterfalls, great camping and for being one of the best places to enjoy the trails with your trusty steed. The good thing about guided horseback rides is that you can travel light and make time to enjoy everything else the park has to offer. If you want to travel with your horse and enjoy the trails at your own pace, Camp Creek State Park and Forest offer horseback riding trails and equestrian camping. From guided trail rides to riding the trails by horseback, West Virginia’s state parks are one of the best places to visit if you want to travel with your horse or want a whole new trail experience.

Michigan football is hosting one of the best wide receivers in the country in the 2023 class on Tuesday.

The maize and blue are also in the mix for Baton Rouge (La.) Catholic wideout Shelton Sampson Jr., who is also a five-star prospect. On June 24, the maize and blue will host Miami (Fla.) Gulliver Prep five-star Jalen Brown, who’s also strongly considering schools such as Miami and LSU. But making a midweek visit to Ann Arbor, DeSoto (Tx.) five-star receiver Johntay Cook II appears to be enjoying his visit. Ohio State made headlines the past two days as it got verbal commitments from two five-star wide receivers — Carnell Tate and Brandon Inniss. But the Wolverines have been solid recruiting talented wideouts, and are looking to make a similar impact in the 2023 cycle.

Under new leadership and a new structure, Visit Jackson is thriving and has the confidence of the state legislature which it lacked for years.

Thigpen said he was recently at the Chicago Blues Festival selling Jackson as a destination, not just for its blues history but also for its connection to Chicago through the great migration. "We might have had a table at their event the year before saying, 'Come to Jackson next year.'" "The main thing that they're doing is they are very focused on pursuing business that accelerates the economic viability of Jackson, Mississippi. They are very in tune with their restaurants, very in tune with their hotels," Powell said. While Visit Jackson may have previously struggled to show the legislature their worth, Thigpen said his team regularly updates leaders at the capitol with quarterly reports. "They really don't ask people to participate on those kinds of boards unless they feel confident in their abilities. The first major change to Visit Jackson came in the form of new leadership. "We have fantastic assets that a lot of other communities don’t have and they are not being used to the best of its abilities. He has also been selected to serve on a board of the Mississippi Tourism Association, the U.S. Travel Association and Destinations International. "Rather than, as the previous person prior to Rickey had, rather than saying, 'No, no, no, we can't do that." The extension seemed to pass almost as a formality, in stark contrast to past years. The city's 1% sales tax on hotels, motels and restaurants, which funds Visit Jackson, was set to expire on July 1, but state lawmakers extended it for another four years with little controversy. Very unhappy employees, it was just a mess, I don't know how else to put it."

The loop is expected to officially open in June with a ribbon cutting to be announced by the Truckee Trails Foundation. Trails for Everybody also includes Visit Truckee-Tahoe’s shoulder season event sponsorship of the third annual Truckee Tahoe Gravel as an all-inclusive, sustainably-minded gravel race held and produced by Bike Monkey on June 11. To encourage a car-free bike culture for summer events, VTT co-created, with Truckee Trails Foundation and Town of Truckee’s Keep Truckee Green, the Sustainable Truckee Bike Valet for Truckee Thursdays and Music in the Park on Wednesdays. The free valet service provides safe, secure bike storage for event attendees. Trails for Everybody began with VTT’s contributing sponsorship to the Truckee Trails Foundation construction of Ridgeline Nature Loop in summer 2021. For summer 2022, VTT’s contributing sponsorship for Truckee Trails Foundation helped close the fiscal gap needed to construct a new, all-inclusive and universally-designed (also known as “adaptive”) mountain bike loop to further enhance the Sawtooth trail network. Town of Truckee’s Alfred Knotts championed the project with input from Visit Truckee-Tahoe and continues to work with BCycle on implementation.

The talks in Ankara between Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan come one month before a visit to Riyadh by US president ...

Turkey's rapprochement with the Saudis began with an Istanbul court decision in April to break off the trial in absentia of 26 suspects accused of links to Khashoggi's killing and to transfer the case to Riyadh. The kingdom's state media ended up releasing a picture of Erdogan hugging the crown prince, an image that created a furore in Turkey. A joint statement issued by their foreign ministers said the meeting was held "in an atmosphere of sincerity and brotherhood embodying the depth of excellent relations between the two countries". "I think this is probably one of the most significant visits to Ankara by a foreign leader in almost a decade," said The Washington Institute's Turkey specialist Soner Cagaptay. The Turkish leader personally welcomed the crown prince at his presidential palace at a grand ceremony featuring a parade of horses and a military honour guard. It was his Islamic-rooted government that released gruesome details of the Khashoggi murder suggesting that his body had been dismembered and dissolved in acid.

She made that judgement after listening to purported audio recordings of conversations inside the consulate made by Turkish intelligence. In April, Mr Erdogan flew to Saudi Arabia and publicly embraced the prince, as their countries began what he called a "new period of co-operation". Saudi prosecutors blamed "rogue" agents and said the prince had had no knowledge of the operation. While Mr Erdogan did not directly accuse Prince Mohammed, he claimed he knew the order to kill Khashoggi had come "from the highest levels of the Saudi government". He also visited Jordan and Egypt this week as part of a Middle East tour and next month will meet US President Joe Biden, who promised in 2019 to make Saudi Arabia "the pariah that they are" over Khashoggi's murder. Mr Erdogan once indirectly accused the prince of ordering Saudi agents to kill Khashoggi. He denied any involvement.

During his US presidential campaign, Joe Biden vowed to turn MBS into a "pariah" over his rights record. But a plummeting Turkish lira and inflation of more than 70% appear to have forced the Turkish President to change tack. MBS denied involvement in the murder, which captured international headlines with lurid details of the killing.
