Avid equestrian Bo Derek campaigns to stop U.S. horsemeat exports
Bo Derek loved horses long before she galloped onto U.S. movie screens in the hit movie 10. The movie star now hopes to ride to the rescue of thousands of U.S. horses killed every year to feed European and Asian diners. Derek, best known for her roles in 10 and a 1981 remake of Tarzan, went to Congress on Tuesday to support legislation that would ban the killing of horses for gourmet dining overseas. The 47-year-old, who wrote a book about her horse hobby, was unfazed when she was briefly introduced as "Bo Dietrich," an apparent mixing of her name with the early screen star Marlene Dietrich.

Clydesdale gives dressage a go at expo
In the elegant and competitive world of dressage, you first think of the Royal Lippizans of Vienna's Spanish Riding School. Those noble white steeds find their counterparts in the United States in glossy black Arabians, warmbloods, thoroughbreds and quarter horses precisely cantering and trotting through complex, athletic routines that are the equine equivalent of human gymnastics and ballet. That is why Linda Fullmer, appearing especially small and vulnerable in her cap and formal riding clothes, got more than a few double-takes when she led one of her giant Clydesdales into the arena at Utah Horse Expo 2004 on Saturday at the Salt Lake County Equestrian Park.
