Aspiring models lined up Saturday in Rocky Mount for their shot at stardom and a chance to be on the CW's networks prime time program.
There was a casting call for America's Next Top model over at the Golden East Crossing mall in Rocky Mount.
The event was co-sponsored by the Rocky Mount Telegram.
Model hopefuls came from as far as Virgina to get their chance at stardom.
The casting call took place from 1 to 5 pm Saturday afternoon and whoever gets chosen will have a chance at the final casting call in Los Angeles.
Many said this was a chance they could not pass up. One even saying she would leave school. Erika Simmons a student at ECU says, "I'm a junior so it would be difficult for me to leave ECU but if i had a chance to be on the show it would be the chance of a lifetime and I would leave ECU for this."
This is the second year in a row this model search has come to our area.
The Rocky Mount Telegram will post the top ten finalist from our area on their website on Sunday.
A spokesperson for the paper says people can log on to their website and cast their vote on who they think should go to the final casting call in Los Angeles.
If you would like to vote on who you think should go then log on to http://www.rockymounttelegram.com/ and cast your vote.

Social media trends that are colliding in 2013
Jan 2nd
There is nothing more fun than thinking about how tech trends and humanity are colliding and there is no better time to write about it than the beginning of a new year. There are lots of things to be excited about, but here are a few of the trends that I see colliding in 2013 and what might happen when they do …
The optimized self
Colliding trends: 1) The cost of collecting, storing, and analyzing big data is dropping; 2) The desire to live smarter and healthier is going up.
New trend: The optimized self. The Nike Fuel Band is an example of the emerging man-machine interface that will allow us to continuously collect biometric data that will enable healthier habits, early warning signs of trouble, and optimized human health. We will see continuous feedback and data-fed training programs for optimizing sleep, eating, and every other life function.
We will increasingly turn healthy living into a fun competition with daily objectives and rewards from brands. Huge sponsorship opportunities.
Facebook Financial Fatigue
Colliding trends: 1) Facebook faces unrelenting shareholder pressure to meet quarterly financial goals; 2) Consumers weary of new ad schemes
New trend: Facebook Fatigue. Didn't you think the latest round of announcements, apologies and counter-announcements by Facebook-owned Instagram were bizarre?
This is a signal that Facebook will be aggressively pushing the limits of our tolerance for monetization schemes. As I wrote earlier this year, the most disruptive event in the development of the social web was the Facebook IPO. This is a company that now has to deliver the goods to shareholders every quarter, without fail, without end. And the only way to do this is to draw more money out of me and you.
I believe this will take the form of a constant experimentation with monetization models … some intrusive, some helpful … but at some point they will risk fatiguing users with the constant changes and increasingly prevalent sponsored posts from advertisers. Will there be a crunch point that opens the door for a more-user-friendly competitor?
Social learning creates crisis for traditional universities
Colliding trends: 1) Unaffordable college tuition; 2) Highly-endowed universities offering free online classes
New trend: Traditional universities in crisis. On top of ridiculous tuition costs, we are at a tipping point where many young people are wondering about the relevance of a college degree in many professions.
Coursera, a start-up online education company, has enrolled 1.35 million students in its free online courses since it began in early 2012. In just a few months it added 33 partner universities, including Brown, Columbia, and Weslyan, to provide more than 200 free "massive open online courses," known as MOOCs.
Could there be a time in the near future where the richest universities simply give away their "content" for many undergraduate classes? Could this be the next wave of "content marketing" that may depend on monetization through adjacent products and services?
Universities are among the most inefficient and slowest-moving institutions on earth (speaking from experience!). They could be facing severe and rapid financial consequences if they don't find a way to maintain their relevance in the digital age.
Entertain me
Colliding trends: 1) Internet information density 2) Even more information density
New trend: Emphasis on entertaining content. Let's face it. It's not that hard to be in the content marketing game today. But the bar for quality content is being raised day by day. What will it take to cut through? Entertainment!
Companies will have to continuously push for more interesting, timely and entertaining content to remain relevant. Here are the implications: The need for exceptional content creators will be high. The cost of content marketing is going to go up over time as we place more emphasis on design and entertainment value. Coke just turned their website into a news magazine. That's where the market is heading. How are you going to stand out?
The singularity in sight?
Colliding trends: 1) Man-machine interface, 2) Rapidly-improving artificial intelligence.
New trend: The "singularity" is the emergence of greater-than-human superintelligence that has long been theorized by science fiction writers. It is a controversial and yet nonetheless fascinating topic. Is it coming into view?
A hyper-intelligent IBM computer (Watson) being training to be a medical doctor. For $1,500, Google glasses can take you another step toward the man-machine interface — ubiquitous information as part of our bodies. Mind-controlled exo-skeleton connected to humans are helping parapalegics to walk, and robots can be controlled by human brain implants. Japanese researchers are building humanoid robots with bones and muscles. Eureqa is a software system that uses evolutionary computing to discover laws of nature that scientists haven't been able to solve on their own.
And the rate of progress is accelerating. Can we doubt that many of us will live to see the day when machines become self-aware?
A revolution in design
Colliding trends: 1) Rapid digital replacement of bulky physical assets; 2) A need for more compact urban living spaces
New trend: Empty design. This is a bit of a wild idea but I was moving a box of old records and began thinking how the bulk we used to have to deal with is going away — books, paper files, records and CD's, huge stereo systems, TV components.
Think about the effect this must be having on the world of design. Most furniture and housing units are designed to maximize storage space but this is no longer a primary requirement. What will we do with all this extra space formerly devoted to shelves, closets and drawers? I think the consolidation of gadgets and cloud storage will revolutionize urban living.
OK, I've had my fun. Now it's your turn! What do you think of these prognostications? What trends are you watching in 2013?
This is the time to make the social web a better place
Jan 1st
I hear a lot of complaints about how mean, depressing, and disheartening the social web can be.
This can certainly be true.
The social web is simply a reflection of humanity. You can find greed, extremists, and evil at every turn. But that doesn't mean it has to be that way for you and me.
You see, the beauty of the social web is that we can choose to make the experience whatever we like by surrounding ourselves with great people and content that make our lives better.
There are a couple of folks out there that operate on the edges of ethics and every time I encountered them it would simply create negativity. So I unfollowed them … and magically, the web immediately became a happier place.
Of course we should not shun diversity of opinion — that pushes the learning edges. But why are you putting up with haters if you don't have to?
If you're one of those feeling a little angry or unhappy about what you're seeing on the web these days, maybe it's time for an attitude adjustment.
- Purge your blog reader.
- Unfollow or block those who chronically bring you down.
- Surround yourself with people who are nurturing and challenge you to grow as a person and a professional.
The New Year is symbol of optimism and hope. This is a perfect time to adjust your social media experience to reflect that too!
What is your strategy for capturing the positive and minimizing the hate in 2013?

Exhibitor Count, International Presence Up for L.A. Textile Show
Posted on March 23, 2011 by
LOS ANGELES-The upcoming Los Angeles International Textile Show will have more overall exhibitors and, in particular, European mills, than last year's shows, according to a statement from the California Market Center, where the show will take place.
Of particular note is the return of the Lenzing Innovation Pavilion, which will showcase 24 Lenzing-affiliated exhibitors in showrooms and booths on the 13th floor of the center. In addition, the Korean Pavilion will present merchandise from that nation's textile and sourcing mills, and will be located in the Fashion Theater off the center's main lobby. There will also be a European Showcase on the 13th floor, featuring European exhibitors.

Additional Information
Important InformationAbout Asociación Arariwa
Asociación Arariwa is a large non-governmental organization that started offering microcredit in 1994 to improve the quality of life, skills and equity of the population in the rural Cusco region of Peru. Arariwa serves the southern Andean provinces of Peru, and is distinguished by its efforts to reach the very poor, who often live in isolated rural areas. Arariwa fosters village banking, supports savings accounts, promotes access to education, and empowers women entrepreneurs (who make up 78% of its borrowers).
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

So I posted a thread about what move set I should teach my Milotic and I don't know what happened to it.
Now my Milotic is level 30 and fully EV trained with the Effort Ribbon to prove it. I EV trained it in Special Attack (252), Speed (252) and HP (6). It already knows Water Pulse and Recover.
I plan on keeping Water Pulse and in addition teach it Surf and Ice Beam. I am currently debating between either keeping Recover or teaching it Calm Mind.
So here's my question: What do you think of the below move set and which should be my 4th move, Calm Mind or Recover?
Ice Beam
Water Pulse
Calm Mind/Recover

Kismat disconnected
Maybe there is on one in this world who doesn't believe in kismet but for that single reason you can't blame or over emphasize the issue of kismet. But the story of the film depicts little more.
Just like any other Bollywod flick, in this film also, Raj (Shahi Kapoor) and Priya (Vidya Balan) meet each other. But despite feeling love for each other the only thing they develop for each other is pure hatred. But see the kismet connection hidden in such a chemistry which turns bad luck of Raj, who has been fighting for getting a better work for last five years in the field of Architecture, into a good one. Raj comes to his fortune teller Hassena Banu Jaan (Juhi Chawla) and describes everything to her. Banu tells him that Priya is his lucky charm and for a better future he should always take her with him to wherever he goes for his job. Raj agrees on it and takes Priya to a meeting with Batra & Gill, a company that wants to construct a shopping mall. But soon Raj comes to know that the proposed mall is going to be made by demolishing Priya's community centre. Priya helps Raj without having any idea about what's going on. But as soon as Raj gets the project, the reality comes into open for Priya. For the sake of love Raj proposes Gill (Om Puri) for building the combination of shopping mall and community center but Gill denies it. At the end of the story Priya's kismet helps Raj once again and Mr. Batra (Boman Irani), friend to Priya and partner of Batra & Gill, accepts Raj's proposal of making the shopping mall beside the community centre.
Shahid must remember that audience's expectation regarding his characters in films has touched the sky after the success of Jab We Met and he must accept films keeping that in mind only. At the same time he must avoid playing the stereotype characters. On the other hand Vidya has tried her best to live the life of her character but unfortunately the character, especially her outfits, hasn't suit her level best. I guess she must not attempt this kind of characters. Juhi Chawla is excellent in the character of Hassena Bano but the lose bangle in her hand made audience think about possibilities that forced her wearing it. Few scenes with Vidya made us realize like Juhi's jewelries are put on Vidya. Om Puri and Boman Irani are good as usual. Himani Shivpuri proved with two scenes that character maybe small but it has to be strong. There is nothing to talk about other characters of the film. Despite its length of 2 and half an hour, the film seemed longer and unusually slow. Aziz Mirza has chosen beautiful locations but he better has understood that beautiful locations cannot make beautiful films. Music and lyrics are not to the marks.
Expectations of watching a good film may drag a lot of audiences to the theatre but they better know in advance that the film has nothing extraordinary to offer the audience. People will surely fail to connect to the film, if not to the stars.

Re: Specific law forbidding removal of federal loans lates
schrute wrote:
Actually, FCRA Section 623(a)2 says that retroactive deferments acknowledge a time period when no payments were due. Therefore no payment was ever due and any negative credit history must be removed. Since the statute says that reports must be "updated" as well as corrected.
The FTC's lawyers and DoE counsel confirmed this to me verbally.
That would mean CitiBank's who previously owned The Student Loan Corporation, now owned by Discover Student Loans is a criminal orgination. I believe we all know this.
I would like to challenge that statute.....does it make reference to the start date? Meaning, the day you enter class or the day your scheduled to attend? So, what The Student Loan Corporation was doing was taking the defermant time as the day the student starts classs not the date your excepted into school and have a date to start in hand. Understand?

OSU football notebook: Justin Gilbert punishment still to be determined
BY GINA MIZELL AND JOHN HELSLEY, Staff Writers, email@example.com
As of Monday afternoon, Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy still hadn't heard from the Big 12 regarding possible further punishment for starting cornerback Justin Gilbert, who was ejected late in the Cowboys' loss to West Virginia after being flagged for a flagrant personal foul for getting in a scuffle with a Mountaineer.
Gundy was clearly disappointed with Gilbert's behavior after the game. So even if the Big 12 takes no additional disciplinary action, could OSU?
"I'm gonna wait and see exactly what happens with the conference," Gundy said, "and then I'll sit down and have a discussion with Justin."
Should Gilbert be unavailable Saturday, Tyler Patmon would likely slide into a starting spot opposite Kevin Peterson, while Ashton Lampkin and Miketavius Jones could get pushed into more playing time.
Following the Cowboys' loss in Morgantown, receiver Tracy Moore got a phone call from an old pal.
Justin Blackmon.
Moore said the friends had a "good conversation." And Blackmon, the former OSU star and current member of the Jacksonville Jaguars, ultimately had some simple advice for Moore.
"The bottom line (is) he said, 'We don't lose. That's not what we do,'" Moore said. "So you need to figure it out and figure out what it takes to fix it."
Gundy admitted Monday that even though he has a Twitter account — @CoachGundy — he isn't exactly the one physically typing the messages that go out into cyberspace.
So he wasn't completely aware of the way social media appeared to turn on Cowboy quarterback J.W. Walsh when he was largely ineffective against West Virginia. But the coach certainly isn't surprised.
"We live in a society today that people want answers and they want results right now," Gundy said. "They loved J.W. when he wasn't playing. And then he comes in and if he makes a mistake, then they want somebody else. That's just the society we live in today. That's life.
"We get way too much credit when we're doing good and we get beat up too much when we're doing bad. That's just kind of the way it is."
Following the first setback of this season, a Big 12 loss that puts OSU's conference favorite status on hold, the Cowboys find themselves in need of a pick-me-up.
Or in this case, a pick-ourselves-up.
"Nobody's ever happy after a loss," said OSU safety Daytawion Lowe. "But we've got a lot of older guys who have lost before. I mean, we know we have to get in the film room and get out there in practice and get better.
"We are a good football team. (Saturday), we didn't really show it. But at the same time, we've got to go out and prepare better than we did today."
Linebacker Caleb Lavey said this week would be a call for the team's seniors to do their part.
"The trick is the leadership on the team," said Lavey, one of the seniors. "It's really important for us to make sure the young guys don't get their heads down. You can't get your head down, either as a leader. There's no good that comes from it.
"You can feel sorry about it, but that's not going to make you become a better player. We need to become better players as go forth in Big 12 play."

Many people believe that women are better than men at investing. Now, there is some evidence to suggest that they make better corporate leaders, too.
A report by the Credit Suisse Research Institute drew data from 2,360 companies worldwide with market capitalizations of at least $10-billion (U.S.) and examined their boards of directors.
Turns out, companies with women on their boards outperformed companies with all-male boards over the six-year period between 2005 and 2011.
Indeed, the numbers are dazzling. For companies with women on their boards, share prices outperformed companies with all-male boards by 26 per cent over the past six years. Net income among companies with women on their boards has grown an average of 14 per cent a year, versus 10 per cent income growth for all-male boards.
Coincidence? The report, highlighted by Bloomberg News, suggests not.
"Multiple academic studies have concluded that diverse corporate boards exercise more diligent oversight," said Michelle Lamb, the author of the study, according to Bloomberg. "They have better attendance records than homogeneous boards, and they invest more effort in auditing when the complexity of the business warrants heightened scrutiny."
The report also noted that women are more risk-averse – a characteristic that has paid off nicely during the turbulence that followed the financial crisis. Companies with female board directors have slightly lower net-debt-to-equity ratios.
The benefits of risk aversion have been expressed before. A number of studies – including one oft-cited by Terrance Odean, a professor at the Haas School of Business at the University of California, Berkeley – have shown that women tend to make better retail investors because they are not hobbled by mens' level of overconfidence. Through overconfidence, men tend to trade too much, to the detriment of their portfolios.
Rising board diversity is obviously a good development. The number of companies in the Credit Suisse report with at least one female board member rose to 59 per cent in 2011 from 41 per cent in 2005.
But it is unclear whether investors should now start weighing board gender composition in making their stock selections. Is Facebook Inc. a compelling "buy" because Sheryl Sandberg, apart from being the social media company's chief operating officer, is also a director? Or what about Yahoo Inc. after Marissa Mayer became that company's head honcho and director?
For one thing, it doesn't take many women on a board of directors to qualify as diverse under Credit Suisse's rules. One woman will do, and it is hard to see how a lone figure (or even two) can have a profound impact on a company's risk profile – let alone performance – if they are not the chairperson or chief executive.
And while risk aversion has tended to work well over the past six years given the tumultuous state of the global economy, do you really want to side with risk-averse companies when times are good?
Companies that take risks look like the better bet for most investors during normal economic times (okay, with the notable exception of accident-prone U.S. banks). That way, you can benefit from innovation, expansion into international markets, and mergers and acquisitions.
This is not to suggest that investors should stay clear of diverse boards of directors. But the long-term payoff in making them an important part of the investment process looks suspect.
If you want to avoid risk and give your portfolio a fighting chance during downturns, invest in companies with low debt, stable earnings and rising dividends. That says more about risk-aversion than whether a board member is a man or a woman.

Scientology's Fair Game
Julio R. Montesinos
Most people would identify Scientology with celebrities, self-help, UFOs, yet most people do not now what Scientology is about. I have decided to describe Scientology in terms of their actions. Scientology strives to protect itself by use of the Fair Game policy, following the principle that the best defence is a good offense.

If the primary accomplishment of the Moving Image Institute in Film Criticism and Feature Writing--a five day workshop for film critics that completed its second year at the Museum of Moving Image on Tuesday--was New York Times film critic A.O. Scott's diminished hesitance to comment on blogs, its contributions to the larger issues of the discipline would be moot.
Fortunately, that was more like an appropriate jumping-off point: After Scott visited the Institute on its inaugural day and caught flack from Spout blogger Karina Longworth for refusing to engage in reader comments at the bottom of his reviews, he later admitted to commenting on another blog during the week--perhaps as a transitional point. "There's a difference between engaging in a conversation and answering abuse," Scott initially said in his defense, but that was before Longworth, on her SpoutBlog, lamented that "it's hard for me to wrap my head around the power dynamic expressed in such absolute terms."
When spotlighting a tension between new and old models of film journalism, the Institute remained relevant. Arriving on the heels of national news stories bemoaning the alleged demise of film critics, the gathering of a dozen participants--all of whom had some degree of journalism experience--contained a majority of Internet-based writers. Conventional print journalists are notorious for regarding the blogosphere as a bunch of anarchic college freshmen getting sloshed on watered-down beer, but this crowd offered a rebuttal to trite stereotypes. On Saturday, a panel of online film journalists--including The House Next Door's Matt Zoller Seitz and The Reeler's Stu VanAirsdale--suggested Old Media's misgivings resulted from their uncertainty about the future of the practice. "A lot of it is insecurity," Seitz said.
Many discussions, deftly moderated by MoMI curator David Schwartz and editorial director Dennis Lim, veered from the intent of the practice to whether it remains sustainable as a profession. When legendary critics (and longtime married couple) Andrew Sarris and Molly Haskell paid a visit on Sunday, they came across less like the final holdouts of a dying breed than as veterans of a crowd continually diversifying around them.
Haskell, a pioneer of feminist film criticism, and Sarris, the jovial auteurist rival of the late Pauline Kael, hardly feared the impact of the web on their livelihoods. Despite Sarris' admission that he continues to file weekly reviews for the New York Observer on his typewriter, Haskell said that "if the Observer ever goes under, Andrew and I could do some sort of video thing." In a lively conversation that continued into the evening when the duo joined us for dinner, many of us pressured them to do just that. "I've sort of thought of bloggers and Internet writers as living only in the present tense, but I was wrong," Haskell said later.
Which isn't to say the present doesn't need some fixing. Some members of the industry were pessimistic about the livelihood of the critical establishment. IFC Films' Ryan Werner and Kino's Don Krim complained that the firings of print critics in cities like Washington D.C. have caused them to rethink their marketing plans, and Sony Pictures Classics co-president Michael Barker admitted that he was worried about the state of the field. Among buyers, only Bingham Ray, from Sidney Kimmel Entertainment, exhibited a fair amount of optimism, especially for critics reporting on the festival circuit.
Among the participating filmmakers, the only one to really get excited about the critical process was retired. Octogenarian Arthur Penn dropped by for an informal chat about his career, primarily focusing on the divisive reaction to "Bonnie and Clyde" and how Pauline Kael's rave review solidified its place in history. Penn contrasted her understanding of the movie to New York Times critic Bosley Crowther's infamous pan, pointing out that he had been working on a broader study of violence in the movies when he saw the movie at a festival. "It fell right into his wheelhouse," Penn said, adding that he isn't resolutely opposed to negative reviews. "If the critic finds that the intention (of the film) is not fulfilled, that is a valid critic," he said.
But for the film publicists at the Institute on Friday, valid critics are the ones pumping up the movies they're working on. Cynthia Schwartz of 42 West used the polarized reactions to Paul Haggis' "Crash" as an example of a time when positive notices outweighed negative ones, and Miramax Films' Julie Fontaine recounted a similar experience with the release of "No Country for Old Men." Both participants openly acknowledged their admiration for fellow attendee Susan Norget, who only represents films she likes.
At no point in the conversation did the critics or publicists suggest they were doing the same jobs, but that didn't stop New York Times contributor Dave Kehr from complaining about the visit in a comment left on participant Kevin Lee's Shooting Down Pictures blog. "The underlying assumption of the MVI seems to be that film criticism is and should be a component of the marketing system," he wrote. Kehr appears to have misunderstood the intention of instigating dialogue between the publicists and the critics as a way of condescending to the latter bunch, but his written remarks contributed to an engaging debate the following day. Without a doubt, the ongoing confrontations with related professionals helped distinguish film criticism from other aspects of the film community. We talked about programming as a form of criticism, and it was generally agreed upon that advocacy was an essential component of the critical apparatus.
The local nature of the Institute caused it to have a distinctly New York feel, despite that there were a fair share of non-New York participants. Although some of them had to spend some time getting oriented in the city's insular film culture, the adjustment period helped embolden their assertions of responsibilities in their own communities. "It's really important to do this stuff on a local level," said Peter Noble-Kuchera, a film critic for WFIU Public Radio in Bloomington, Indiana. "The audience for the type of movies most of us really like isn't a mass audience."
Nevertheless, it's important to assume that a readership for serious criticism will persist as long as it's still available. As a sort of post-script to the workshop, the museum plans to launch an ambitious online publication called MovingImage Source this summer, which intends to showcase festivals around the world. Kicking off on June 5 with an assembly at the Times Center (during which Jonathan Demme will publicly interview Werner Herzog), MovingImage Source offers one more example of a point on which all of the Institute's participants can agree: If criticism works as a "formalization of an impulse that exists everywhere"--as Scott suggested last Friday--then, simply put, it's not going anywhere.

AUBURN — It's amazing what a little confidence can do.
Mebossman, fresh off a romp over lesser competition, ran down 3-year-old stars Del Rio Harbor and Noosito in the final yards to win by a neck in Sunday's $74,250 Emerald Downs Derby.
After losing in five stakes races the past two years to either Del Rio Harbor or Noosito, trainer Frank Lucarelli decided to give Mebossman a bit of a break, running him in an allowance race against lesser competition last month, and he rolled to a 6¾-length win.
"We wanted to get away from those two horses, to get him some confidence," Lucarelli said. "I didn't know if we would beat them (Del Rio Harbor and Noosito) and I don't know if we would beat them if we race again. We got a little lucky today on a head bob at the wire."

It wasn't quite that close. But while Mebossman was charging hard, it wasn't apparent until very late in the race that he would catch either Del Rio Harbor, who was second, or Noosito, who was another head behind.
"You never know what's going to happen, but my horse was closing pretty good, little by little," said jockey Juan Gutierrez, who rode Mebossman.
The winning time in the 11/8 -mile race was 1 minute, 47.23 seconds.
It looked for much of the race that it would be another banner day for trainer Doris Harwood, who trains both Noosito and Del Rio Harbor, who had combined to win the first three stakes for 3-year-old males at the meet.
Del Rio Harbor went straight to the lead, while Noosito, the slight favorite over his stablemate, was right at his side.
Noosito took a brief lead in the stretch but Del Rio Harbor battled back. It looked like those two might duel together to the wire, but Mebossman began cutting into his deficit and for a while it looked like the three horses might hit the wire together.
But Mebossman took the lead just before the wire in a well-timed ride by Gutierrez.
"I was confident in my horse," Gutierrez said. " I had a lot of horse under me."
Mebossman paid $13 to win on a $2 win ticket as the third betting choice in the field of seven.
25 nominated forLongacres Mile
Pending late mail, 25 horses have been nominated to the 79th running of the $200,000 Longacres Mile on Aug. 24.
Stryker Phd is the top local contender in the Grade III stakes race as he has been brilliant in two starts at Emerald Downs this year for trainer Larry Ross.
Stryker Phd finished second in the 2013 Longacres Mile and set stakes records this year in sweeping the Budweiser and Mt. Rainier Handicaps.
The out-of-state nominees include recent Del Mar (Calif.) stakes winner Rock Me Baby, Handsome Mike, Blue Tone and Home Run Kitten.
Handsome Mike, a 5-year-old son of Scat Daddy trained by Doug O'Neill, is a multiple graded winner, including a triumph in the $1,000,000 Pennsylvania Derby.

Comments sought on English education
California residents are invited to comment on a Common Core State Standards framework for English language arts, as part of a sweeping education overhaul that pushes students to develop a deeper understanding of subjects. Schools will begin using the nationwide curriculum standards in 2014-15.
The framework includes English language arts and English language development, and will inform educators and publishers in creating curriculum and instructional materials, the California Department of Education stated.
Residents can leave comments about the framework online, through email, fax or mail until Feb. 13. Comments will be presented to the Instructional Quality Commission in the spring, followed by a second public review and final action next summer.
The previous English framework was adopted in 2006; the state adopted Common Core State Standards for English in 2010 and the English Language Development Standards in 2012, the California Department of Education said.
"Across California, teachers and administrators are hard at work making this transition to modern new standards," State Superintendent Tom Torlakson said in a written statement. "With this framework, we're working to help guide that process, and I look forward to the public's feedback."

GAY MARRIAGE? : Vermont Must Decide
O'Brien, Dennis, Commonweal
On December 21, 1999, the eve of the shortest day of the year, the Vermont Supreme Court handed down a ruling on the vexed matter of "gay marriage." Whether that ruling will cast as short a light on this issue as the winter solstice remains to be seen. The court rejected the claim of the gay plaintiffs that denying them a marriage license was a violation of Vermont law. On the other hand, it granted that same-sex couples were entitled to all the civil benefits extended to married households. Legislation to affirm these entitlements was left to the Vermont legislature. Whether one would encompass this protection under the label of "marriage"or under some category such as "domestic partnership"was not best decided by judicial fiat.
The ruling has been hailed and condemned by both sides of the gay-marriage issue. Gay advocates were gratified by the recognition of equal benefits but vowed to press for recognition of gay marriage. The Catholic bishop of Burlington, Kenneth Angell, regretted the ruling but took comfort in the fact that the court had not legalized gay marriage. Where does the Vermont ruling leave the national debate on gay marriage? I believe that the majority opinion, written by the Chief Justice Jeffrey L. Amestoy, is a model of judicial prudence worthy of national attention.
The plaintiffs argued that the purpose of marriage was to "protect and encourage the union of committed couples." The court rejected that broad construction of "marriage." The chief justice began his opinion by noting that by common definition (Webster's Dictionary) "marriage" is the union of one man and one woman as man and wife. When Vermont law specifies that the town clerk may issue a license to either the "bride"or "groom" it is clear that the legislature had gender in mind.
It is far from clear that limiting marriage to opposite-sex couples violates the Legislature's "intent and spirit." Rather, the evidence demonstrates a clear legislative assumption that marriage under our statutory scheme consists of a union between a man and a woman.
Having rejected any claim to marriage under Vermont statutes, the court then turned to the constitutional question. Plaintiffs argued that refusal to grant a marriage license violated their right to "common benefit and protection of the law guaranteed by Chapter I, article 7 of the Vermont Constitution." Denying access to a civil marriage license excludes couples from an array of legal benefits "incident to the marital relation": access to spouse's medical, life, and disability insurance, etc. On the basis of this "Common Benefit"clause in the Vermont Constitution, the court ruled that gay couples were entitled to the benefits "incident on the marital relation."
Will such a Solomonic slice across the gay-marriage issue become a national precedent? Perhaps, but one should recognize that it stems from the unique character of the Vermont Constitution. This point was elegantly detailed in the chief justice's opinion. The Vermont Constitution dates from 1777 when Vermont was an independent republic. The Vermont fundamental law has a cast not reflected in the U.S. Constitution. The "Common Benefits"provision contains striking language: "[G]overnment is, or ought to be, instituted for the common benefit, protection, and security of the people...and not for the particular emolument or advantage of any single man, family, or set of men...."
The majority opinion calls attention to the difference between the affirmative language of "common benefit"and the "equal protection" language of the Fourteenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. In the latter case, one seeks remedy against denial and discrimination; in the Vermont case one envisages a positive mandate of government to provide common benefits.
Justice Amestoy then offers some historical background to establish the spirit embedded in the Vermont Constitution. He notes that the American Revolution was not only a protest against British rule, it was also an internal protest against any "entrenched clique favored by birth or social connections. …
