Roger Ebert’s Film Festival 2017 April 19–23, 2017 Chaz Ebert, Co-Founder, Producer, and Host Nate Kohn, Festival Director Casey Ludwig, Assistant Director More information about the festival can be found at www.ebertfest.com Mission Founded by the late Roger Ebert, University of Illinois Journalism graduate and a Pulitzer Prize- winning film critic, Roger Ebert’s Film Festival takes place in Urbana-Champaign each April for a week, hosted by Chaz Ebert. The festival presents 12 films representing a cross-section of important cinematic works overlooked by audiences, critics and distributors. The films are screened in the 1,500-seat Virginia Theatre, a restored movie palace built in the 1920s. A portion of the festival’s income goes toward on-going renovations at the theatre. The festival brings together the films’ producers, writers, actors and directors to help showcase their work. A film- maker or scholar introduces each film, and each screening is followed by a substantive on-stage Q&A discussion among filmmakers, critics and the audience. In addition to the screenings, the festival hosts a number of academic panel discussions featuring filmmaker guests, scholars and students. The mission of Roger Ebert’s Film Festival is to praise films, genres and formats that have been overlooked.

  • Regulation of Bute and Lasix in New York State by Bennett Liebman
    Regulation of Bute and Lasix in New York State By Bennett Liebman Government Attorney in Residence Albany Law School The horse racing community in the United States has been fighting over issues relating to phenylbutazone or butazolidin [hereinafter referred to as Bute] for more than 55 years and furosemide/salix [hereinafter referred to as Lasix] for more than 40 years. Over this period of time, the same questions have been asked by both supporters and opponents of administration of these drugs. The questions have been asked, but the questions have remained largely unanswered. After decades, the United States racing industry has been unable to come up with a clear consistent position on the proper utilization of these drugs. The purpose of this memorandum is to supply an overview for the members of the Gaming Commission of New York State’s involvement with drug testing issues and more specifically with the history of New York’s regulation of the two drugs most often associated with permissive medication: Bute and Lasix. Much of the focus of this memorandum is on thoroughbred racing, but it is important to understand that the analysis and the issues (and therefore the focus of the Commission) also must be applied to harness racing, which constitutes the vast majority of the pari-mutuel racing conducted in New York State. While some of the statements in this memorandum may be controversial, this memorandum is intended to be historical and not an advocacy piece. Historical New York Drug Testing Questions and Issues New York State, like most North American racing jurisdictions, uses the trainer responsibility rule.1 Under the New York version of this rule, a trainer is responsible for a drug positive unless the trainer is able to demonstrate by substantial evidence that he or she was not responsible for the administration of the drug.2 While New York State allows trainers to assert non- responsibility as an affirmative defense, other states have an even tougher version of the trainer responsibility rule.

  • Many Days at the Races By: Joe Sexton May 4,2016
    Many Days at the Races By: Joe Sexton May 4,2016 The concrete grandstand at Belmont Park was moving under my feet. It was hard to hear the track announcer. But still possible. “He’s moving like a tremendous machine,” Chic Anderson roared. It was June 9, 1973. The race was the Belmont Stakes. The “tremendous machine” was Secretariat. The margin of victory in the final leg of the Triple Crown was an unheard-of 31 lengths. “A miracle horse,” Anderson declared after Secretariat hit the wire. Thus began my love affair with horse racing — a lasting, intoxicating relationship involving much wonder and way too much wagering. It could be thrilling to watch. And it could be dizzying to then cash a ticket. Over the years — I was 14 that day at the Belmont, my dad at my side, a $2 win ticket in my hand — the relationship, like all love affairs, had its ups and downs. The wagers could occasionally feel more important than the wonder. My devotion could feel cold, remote, cynical. The horses could come to be just numbers — “Get up, 6! Get up, 6!” When the 7 horse at Penn National broke down at the wire one night, most people at the Winner’s Circle bar gasped. The horse having tumbled gruesomely across the finish line, I instead asked if my $20 win ticket was still good. The relationship, in truth, could be worse than sterile. It could be downright unhealthy. When you are delaying going to visit your premature twins in the neonatal intensive care unit until the eighth race at Santa Anita has gone off, you have to take some serious personal stock.

GEORGE WOOLF 8. SANTA ANITA HANDICAP 9. THE REST OF THE STORY 10. MORE on HORSE RACING In 1919, Sir Barton won the Kentucky Derby, the Preakness and the Belmont Stakes. He bears the honor of the first "Triple-Crown" winner, even though that title was not-yet available when he was racing. This image depicts Sir Barton and Johnny Luftus, his jockey, at the 1919 Preakness. Image online, courtesy Wikimedia Commons. The first Belmont Stakes (named for August Belmont, the first president of the American jockey club) was run in 1867 at Jerome Park. It was later moved to Belmont Park (which was built by his son, August Belmont, Jr.). In 1873, the first Preakness Stakes was run at Pimlico Course in Baltimore, Maryland. The first Kentucky Derby was run at the Louisville Jockey Club Course in 1875. The course is now known as Churchill Downs. The first "Triple Crown" winner was Sir Barton. He accomplished that feat in 1919, the year following the end of World War I (and before the Derby, the Preakness and the Belmont were collectively called America's "Triple Crown"). To date, there have been eleven Triple Crown winners: Sir Barton (1919); Gallant Fox (1930); Omaha (1935); War Admiral (1937); Whirlaway (1941); Count Fleet (1943); Assault (1946); Citation (1948); Secretariat (1973); Seattle Slew (1977) and Affirmed (1978) Citation - who won the Triple Crown in 1948 - was the first horse to win $1 million (on the 14th of July, 1951).
