Locarno Film Fest
Line up and films in competition at the 63rd edition
The 63rd Locarno Film Festival - from August 4th to the 14th - appears to be eclectic, young and glamorous.
The new artistic director Olivier Père (from Marseilles, just 39 year old) decided to cut down the number of films for the festival, just 290 -100 fewer than last year- and to favor younger film-makers, the difference of genres and the more independent productions. However, there will still be the big names of cinema.
Among the directors in the competition, there will be French Christophe Honoré with Homme au bain, Canadian Bruce LaBruce with LA. Zombie, Serbian Oleg Novkovic with White White World, young actress and director Isild Le Besco with Bas-fonds, and Italian Daniele Gaglianone with Pietro.
Whereas Piazza Grande, which during the festival nights gathers up to 8,000 viewers, will screen: American comedy Cyrus by Jay and Mark Duplass with John C. Reilly and Marisa Tomei; French detective story L'Avocat by Cédric Anger with Benoît Magimel; German thriller Das Letzte Schweigen by Baran bo Odar; and The Ugly Duckling, first feature animation film by great Russian director Garri Bardine.
Without mentioning the retrospective dedicated to Ernst Lubitsch, the master of screwball comedy.
During the festival, prizes will be awarded to such cinema personalities as French-Italian Chiara Mastroianni, Swiss Alain Tanner and Chinese Jia Zhang-ke, and Corso Salani will be remembered, the Italian director who recently passed away.

Welcome to Care Indeed
Care that really works…because we work hard on it!
"Home is where the heart is" and this is especially true for seniors. If you are facing the difficult decision of how to receive care, home care is an option well worth considering.
Home care has become a more popular choice among adults looking for quality adult care. It may be for you if you don't need extensive medical care but you have difficulty moving around. And yes, you can receive the same type of care at home that you can get in a facility. There is no service provided by a facility that a caregiver cannot provide or coordinate for you in your own home. A Care Indeed professional caregiver can help you with day-to-day functions such as dressing, bathing, cooking, walking and getting around.
Care Indeed will approach your home care needs with a deep compassion for your well-being and a clear focus on enhancing the quality of your life. Being at home doesn't mean the quality of care is diminished. Home care is one-on-one and can be much more detailed and customized to your needs. Other advantages of receiving home care include: comfort, convenience and a possible better quality of life. To you, this could mean reduced stress and anxiety. You remain in the privacy of your own home where you can enjoy the same independence and quality of life that you have become accustomed to. Unlike large institutions such as facilities and nursing homes, home care is more personalized and you can receive assistance from a professional who has been trained and has a passion to serve the elderly.
As the home care agency of choice for many residents in California, you can rely on our caregivers, aides and nurses when it comes to your loved ones' health care needs.

He picked her instead of me
As promised, we have some celebrity help for Love Letters this week. Boston Bruins Torey Krug and Matt Bartkowski were given three letters and worked together to come up with some advice. I think they did a pretty good job.
A few months ago I started dating an old friend. We're both in our 30s. I went into it with a casual attitude since he had loose plans to move to another state next year, but we began to have serious feelings and had "the talk." He asked me not to see anyone else, but he had a little predicament for himself. By his description, he was in love with both me and his roommate (a previous ex-girlfriend and longstanding friend). According to him, the notable difference was that he was physically attracted to me but had no sexual feelings for her. He explicitly stated that they weren't sleeping together. Him loving her didn't bother me, so we were on.
Everything was so effortless. We were intimate to the point where I questioned if it was too much for me, but I figured if I was in, I was going to be all in. But a few months ago, it suddenly cooled down. He made a series of major promises that he didn't keep and wouldn't explain why, so my intensity lessened.
After two weeks with the AC on, he wanted to talk. I told him that I was only interested in doing this if he was right there with me. I needed to know I wasn't the only one making an effort. He apologized for not being there and told me he loved me. We had plans later that night, but he never showed and didn't answer my texts. The next day, I sent a third message just asking if he was OK, and he responded by telling me that we're over, he can't believe how I talked down to him (??), and that he's been with his roommate for months now.
He seems to want to stay politely distant. I still don't know what happened exactly, but I don't really need to. If they're happy together, I can be happy for them, but my benevolence stops there. When you're on the losing end of a love triangle, is there anything to do but walk away for good? He had to know that by choosing one of us he'd be losing the other. Didn't he?
– Ultimatum Aftermath, South Shore
I don't know whether he thought he'd lose you for good or whether he secretly intends to return to you whenever it suits him, but his game is over. You're gone. He can't be trusted and he clearly lied to you about his feelings for this longtime friend (something tells me that he's attracted to her enough to sleep with her).
There's no need for benevolence. All you have to do is make him go away. You can spend some energy mourning this, but please think of it as a lesson. If someone tells you that they're in love with someone else at the start of a relationship, you don't have to be OK with it. It's lovely that you were open-minded, but you deserve someone who's all in -- just for you.
Readers? Can you date someone who also loves someone else? What happened here? What happens on the losing end of a love triangle? Will he change his mind? Help.
– Meredith

Thoughtful touches everywhere! Quiet, lush beauty, symphony of crickets and birds, close to National Park. Loved the museum quality Volcano Art Gallery in the park. Enjoyed the simple clean food at Ohelo Cafe. Cafe Ono is also a must see especially for gifts of local artists. Lovely haven in Hawaii!

The rainforest retreat is one of the best places we have ever stayed. The cottages are beautiful well stocked with everything you need and the grounds are immaculate and set up so you feel you are the only ones there. We would not hesitate to stay here again and again

Beautiful setting in the rainforest minutes from Volcano National Park. The breakfast food was adequate and cooking facilities available in the cottage. It was a lovely place to stay after full days of sightseeing. We would recommend highly.

We stayed in the Sanctuary and the Forest House and both were cozy and reclusive. The outdoor shower and Japanese bath is a unique and romantic experience with the Sanctuary and the Forest House was just that little bit more comfortable, yet a bit louder as the rains fell above our head on the skylight. What you see in the photos are exactly what you get and being surrounded by giant ferns, palms and flowers we never saw another guest.

If I could give 7 stars, I would. This place is the most romantic place ever. We stayed in the Sanctuary. Private ofuro and outdoor shower - enchanting. Sleeping surrounded by windows to the rainforest - magical. Fresh papaya every morning - delightful! My husband and I believe the best things come in small packages, and we pack light. Word to the wise - if you measure luxury in square footage and can't do without a mammoth suitcase, you will absolutely have to choose one of the larger cottages. Also, the name "rainforest retreat" is literal - this is in a rainforest, which means it will be raining, almost all the time. Love, love, loved it!!

So beautiful, peaceful and comfortable -we hardly wanted to leave to see the sights! Great local info, cosy fireplace, delicious tea and breakfasts, comfy bed, everything you could possibly need! Look no further, book VRR!!

We had looked forward to this portion of our stay on the big island, but within moments of landing in what should have been peaceful paradise, it became apparent the location is among residential property. I took mostly pictures, in videos you could hear dogs barking behind the property every moment we were at the retreat. Unfortunately, we had to leave the property to find any quiet. We spent our time in the Volcano park hiking and sightseeing. All night, without break two dogs barked back and forth to each other, which provided very little sleep. The cabin and grounds were breath taking, but certainly not peaceful.
Risposta del proprietario
We are sorry for your strong disappointment knowing that you were looking forward to a peaceful stay in paradise. We, as the owners, and the whole staff, regret that you were so disturbed by certain dogs, which live with neighbors on land near our residence. We certainly want you and other guests to experience moments of the peace, quiet and serenity in the Hawaiian rain forest. We can understand your desire for peace and rest. We have also had concerns about the dogs, especially when people are needing rest and a good night's sleep. We have been attempting to work with the neighbors to find ways to meet the dogs' needs and respect the nearby neighbors and B & B guests. Unfortunately, this family has been under stress recently due to the illness and death of the father. The barking was particularly disturbing at the time of your visit and has thankfully been less of an issue recently. The owner will be around to spend time with her disabled adult daughter and attend to the dogs barking next week. We look forward to the quality of rest and quiet we usually enjoy. Please know that the Volcano Rainforest Retreat is in a rural area, adjacent to Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, the closest residential area to the park. The Volcano community has a number of locally-run bed and breakfasts and inns, all in residential areas. The local residents in Volcano truly enjoy hosting travelers in their homes and vacation rentals. The Volcano area is a gateway community to the National Park. healing quality of nature. Again we are sorry for your level of distress and if you would want a refund, let us know and we will arrange that for you. Thank you for acknowledging the breathing beauty of the cottage and grounds.

The only disappointing thing about The Volcano Rainforest Retreat was that we couldn't stay longer. We stayed in the Guest Cottage and it was absolutely perfect for us. Being surrounded by the rainforest and seeing it through every window was beyond amazing. Cannot say enough about this place. We loved it! I

A Slice of Paradise, We spent part of our spring break at the bamboo guest house. It was a wonderful experience! The guest house was unique and comfortable. Our hosts were gracious. We loved the setting in the rainforest (and yes, it did rain a little, but it made the atmosphere only more enchanting). We were enthralled by the natural beauty of the resort and the art and sculptures (by local artists) that adorned it. A place to come back to.

Kathleen and Peter have created a warm and beautiful sanctuary to our very busy and cold NYC life. It was truly wonderful to be surrounded by a naturally lush environment hosted by people who share very similar peaceful views. It was very convenient to have our food left in our kitchen so we can eat at any time, the privacy was A+, the cottage decor made us feel at home, the bed was cush and warm, the hot tub was very relaxing, and we were so excited to see Samadhi cushions and yoga mats! And after Kathleen's wonderful Reiki sessions, my husband and I left relaxed and with a renewed awareness. The Goldens should expect to us again soon!!

In-game advertising (IGA) refers to the use of computers, the Internet, and video games as a medium for the delivery of advertising materials. IGA is one of the fastest growing forms of advertising in terms of yearly spending and anticipated growth.
PriceWaterhouseCoopers estimates total spending on in-game advertising to reach
$1 billion by 2010. The increasing popularity of in-game advertising can largely be
attributed to both the increasing popularity of video games in general and the desire to reclaim the 18-35 year old male demographic, which is rapidly turning away from television towards video games.
In this paper, we present an analysis of physiological engagement with advertising-rich video games. Physiological engagement was measured with OTOinsight's Quantemo™ neuromarketing measurement platform. Analyzing the results from three separate physical traces in combination with eye tracking and interview data, we present a series of five insights for the design and dissemination of future in-game advertising.

GIMP 2.7.3 adds Single Window Mode
GIMP 2.7.3 has added one of the most requested features in the program's history: a single window mode. Version 2.7 is part of the development branch, so unfortunately, the feature wont hit most distro repositories for a while.
As I said, because 2.7 is a development branch, most distributions won't add it to their repositories, and this means that you'll have to build it yourself. It's a shame, in a way, because the new window mode might be viewed as a ease of use feature that less advanced users would appreciate. According to this page, it looks like version 2.8 should arrive in about November.

The Neuroimaging Core (Core B, NC) will provide expertise and support for acquisition and analysis of structural and functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (sMRI/fMRI), functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS), and electroencephalography/event related potentials (EEG/ERP). By providing a centralized organizatlon for use of these techniques across multiple Projects, the NC will greatly increase efficiency of the Program as a whole by eliminating redundancy and providing common processing procedures and automation. Further, it will enable comparability across Projects and sites, by providing standardization in acquisition and analysis. The speciflc strengths of the Core Director and Invesflgators support each methodology: key personnel include experts Dr. Einar Mend, Core Director (structural and funcflonal MRI);Dr. Nicole Landi (EEG/ERP);and Heather Bortfeld (NIRS). Select consultants provide additional expertise: Dr. Robert Fulbright (neuroanatomy and medical review);Dr. Todd Constable (MR physics);and Dr. Ching-Po Lin (flbertract.imaging using DTI and DSI). Computaflonal resources are extensive, including multiple Linux and PC boxes, and a 40-core Mac Xgrid network running all necessary MR software packages and in-house developed Maflab programs. ERP and NIRS data processing are supported by dedicated Macintosh Pro computers. The NC will maintain wikis for communication and QC across sites, and provide local (weekly in person) and global (monthly via Skype) meetings for relevant staff and scientists. The NC will instantiate and maintain quality control and comparability of data acquisitions within each technique, across the multiple sites. As needed, NC staff will provide training of scientists and research associates across Projects in data acquisition and analysis. The NC will provide support for the proper design of experiments to take advantage of the particular strengths of each imaging modality. NC staff will preprocess and perform initial subject-level analysis for all MRI data collected at Haskins Laboratories, and provide support to Project scientists performing main across-subjects analyses for hypothesis testing. Finally, the NC staff will actively develop new techniques for acquisition and analysis to support the scientific goals of the Project.
This program is relevant to the understanding the development of spoken and written language competence, which is crucial for successful academic and life outcomes. The Neuroimaging Core provides scientific expertise and computational support for MRI, EEG, and NIRS data acquisition and analysis, fostering synergy across Projects by providing efficiency, standardization, and quality control for all neuroimaging

But only about 16% of e-mail-driven sales occur on mobile devices, a study finds.
Paul Demery
Consumers viewing a retailer's e-mail on a smartphone or tablet don't click through to the site that often, but when they do they often buy, e-mail services provider Yesmail Interactive says in a new study.
"E-mails opened on mobile have a better chance of reaching consumers at the right place and right time during the busy holiday shopping season," Yesmail Interactive president Michael Fisher says.
In a study of more than 5 billion e-mail marketing messages the company sent for clients in the third quarter, Yesmail finds that revenue per e-mail click on mobile devices is almost double that of clicks from desktops, $7.14 compared with $3.26. "While mobile e-mails are clicked less, they lead to purchases more often," Yesmail says.
Nonetheless, most sales from e-mail come from consumers using computers, with only about 16% of sales coming from consumers using smartphones or tablets. The study also finds that retail average order values resulting from e-mail are slightly lower on mobile devices, at $58.64, compared with $61.06 for non-mobile computers.
When it comes to the type of mobile device e-mail recipients use to make an online purchase, tablets—virtually all of them iPads—account for more than half of the purchases. Of the 16% of purchases driven by e-mail, 56% occur on a tablet computer—and more than 99% of those tablets are iPads, the study finds.
For e-mail-driven purchases on smartphones, 59% occur on an iPhone, the remainder on Android phones, Yesmail says. Yesmail is a unit of Infogroup, a provider of marketing technology and services.

A Great French Door Refrigerator/Freezer
By bigarn44
from St. Augustine, FL, United States
Comments about Maytag MFI2266AEW Bottom Freezer White Refrigerator:
We bought this appliance with trepidation because there were so few models that fit the space that was available in the kitchen. Not a day goes by that my wife and I don't say "we love this refrigerator'. The in-door water and ice dispenser was a must have, and this unit is terrific, plenty of ice and the filtered water is delicious. The space inside both the refrigerator and freezer exceeded our expectations. This purchase was truly great.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Kidrobot is excited to announce Baby Huey, a dynamic new vinyl figure by Frank Kozik.
It's all about that fade baby! Pretty hard to step into your Dad's shoes, even if you have teeny tiny little feet, but a real playa has to try. Relish the opportunity to posses a little whiny evil dictator all your own, either in Playful Pyong Yank Pink or Supervillain Blue!
"No production of high ideological and artistic value can evolve out of a creative group whose members are not united ideologically and in which discipline and order have not been established. It is necessary to collect both color ways in the correct socialist lifestyle manner in order to follow the path of Juche Thought.", artist Frank Kozik.
Retailing for $65 and available in two color-ways, Pink and Blue, the 8" Baby Huey will make a limited debut this year at Kidrobot's San Diego Comic Con booth, July 8th-12th. Baby Huey will be available in stores and online starting August 6th.

The CONTAM Panel acknowledges all the European countries that provided HBCDDs occurrence data in food and supported the consumption data collection for the Comprehensive European Food Consumption Database. Contact: email@example.com Type: Opinion of the Scientific Committee/Scientific Panel On request from: European Commission Question Number: EFSA-Q-2010-00218 Adopted: 5 July 2011 Published in the EFSA Journal: 26 July 2011 Last Updated: 28 July 2011. This version replaces the previous one/s. Affiliation: European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), Parma, Italy Send Print Note: Read the article on the Wiley Online Library Abstract: EFSA was asked by the European Commission to deliver a scientific opinion on hexabromocyclododecanes (HBCDDs) in food. HBCDDs are additive flame retardants primarily used in expanded and extruded polystyrene applied as construction and packing materials, and in textiles. Technical HBCDD predominantly consists of three stereoisomers (α-, β- and γ-HBCDD). Also δ- and ε-HBCDD may be present but at very low concentrations. HBCDDs are present in the environment and likewise in biota and in food and feed. Data from the analysis of HBCDDs in 1,914 food samples were provided to EFSA by seven European countries, covering the period from 2000 to 2010. The Panel on Contaminants in the Food Chain (CONTAM Panel) selected α-, β- and γ-HBCDD to be of primary interest. Since all toxicity studies were carried out with technical HBCDD, a risk assessment of individual stereoisomers was not possible. Main targets were the liver, thyroid hormone homeostasis and the reproductive, nervous and immune systems. HBCDDs are not genotoxic. The CONTAM Panel identified neurodevelopmental effects on behaviour as the critical endpoint, and derived a benchmark dose lower confidence limit for a benchmark response of 10 % (BMDL10) of 0.79 mg/kg body weight. Due to the limitations and uncertainties in the current data base, the CONTAM Panel concluded that it was inappropriate to use this BMDL to establish a health based guidance value, and instead used a margin of exposure (MOE) approach for the health risk assessment of HBCDDs. Since elimination characteristics of HBCDDs in animals and humans differ, the Panel used the body burden as starting point for the MOE approach. The CONTAM Panel concluded that current dietary exposure to HBCDDs in the European Union does not raise a health concern. Also additional exposure, particularly of young children, to HBCDDs from house dust is unlikely to raise a health concern. © European Food Safety Authority, 2011 Keywords: Hexabromocyclododecanes, HBCDDs, occurrence, food, toxicology, human exposure, risk assessment Print on demand Number of Pages: 118

Lend me a hand,
To help me to my feet,
Give me a push,
To help me on my way,
I need help with a lot of things,
But if you help me to my feet,
And give me a little push,
My day will go easier,
If you lend me a hand
You will have given me hope,
You gave me a hand before,
And a simple thing like that
Has helped me with my life,
So next time you see a person in need of a
Little push,
Lend them a hand.

Yet another side of the ongoing life saga and a simple method to releive the strain of the human condition. The puzzling thing about lending a hand is when they turn and stab you. Symbolically speaking of course. I keep on lending though.
This is very nice! I really liked it.

Continue into Salt Lake City and you are unlikely to remain in the dark for long. Almost anyone will explain that it is a reference to the words of Brigham Young, leader of the first Mormon pioneers to reach the valley in 1847. 'This is the right place,' he said, seeing it for the first time.
And indeed, at least for Mormons, his words remain apt today. Although Brigham Young's dream of creating a theocracy within the United States may not have quite come about, Utah today remains a place where political and social life and the very conservative doctrine of his church are almost inseparable.
It is a presence that has been especially evident in the run up to this Easter. Last weekend 6,500 members of the church - formally the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints - swarmed into the city for their annual conference. On Tuesday they celebrated the centenary of its spired temple in the heart of the city. With a worldwide membership of 8.4 million, the church also announced plans to build several new temples, including one in Preston, England. Today it has only one in Britain, close to Gatwick airport.
But suggest to church officials that they, rather than the occupants of the somewhat eclipsed State Capitol a few blocks from the temple, actually run the state's affairs and you will be bombarded with denials. It is simply a case of benign influence, they say.
'Some say that the church runs the state but that's not true at all,' says Don LeFevre, spokesman for the church with an office on the 25th floor of its administration building, the tallest in town. 'It is just very normal that in a state where more than 70 per cent of its inhabitants belong to the church there should be some influence by those individuals.'
In fact, nearly 150 years after Young and his first contingent of 147 pioneers arrived in the valley, almost three-quarters of Utah's population are Mormons. They account for 90 per cent of those who describe themselves as religious. The next-largest religious group in the state are Catholics, who account for only 3 per cent of state's 1.8 million inhabitants.
Nor are the members of the State Capitol likely to cross the church. Nine out of 10 of the legislators are practising Mormons and regularly hold meetings with church leaders before taking important votes. The state's newly elected Governor, Mike Leavitt, is a Mormon too. On taking office he pledged to seek divine guidance on important issues. The church also owns one of the state's main television stations, KKSL.
Mr LeFevre, whose own grandfather was among the first Mormon settlers here, says the church never takes political sides. When matters of moral teaching arise, however, it will always stir. 'Clearly we have a right and indeed an obligation to speak up on moral issues that we believe are important, like pornography, alcohol use and so on. But we never seek to impose our will,' he explains.
The Mormon doctrine is indeed restrictive, arguably even authoritarian. Members can be excommunicated for such sins as pre-marital sex or infidelity. They are barred from drinking not just alcohol but even coffee, tea and Coca Cola. They are expected to participate in almost daily community activities. In theory they must also donate 10 per cent of their pre-tax income to the church. Polygamy, for which Mormons were once famed, and persecuted, was outlawed by the official church in the 1890s.
The only recorded occasion when state legislators have defied the Mormon establishment was 60 years ago when they supported the national repeal of probihition. Here today, however, alcohol sales remain strictly controlled. In the same vein, the church celebrated a victory last autumn when the state government moved to ban betting on horses.
For drinkers and gamblers, at least, the influence of the Mormons can only be oppressive. Equally, however, Salt Lake City is a strikingly neat city, in a spectacular setting and with few of the urban slums so familiar in other American cities. 'If I have a problem it is the state control of alcohol sales, that is the only real inconvenience,' says Linda MacMahon, a non-Mormon who moved to the city 20 years ago from North Carolina.'

Faith Boblett is the product of her upbringing. Surrounded by music, and raised by parents that actually met each other in a band, Faith started singing at a very young age. After her family moved to a small town in rural Minnesota, Faith began playing guitar and writing her own songs at thirteen. Now, almost twenty-five, and back in Minneapolis, Faith has completed a full length album, Oil & Water (2013), and an EP, TELL ME (2014), which are both available for hard-copy purchase and digital download – just click the Store tab above.
Faith has had the opportunity to record with the amazing Brent Sigmeth at Littlebig Studios in Cannon Falls, MN, as well as the Minneapolis-native recording guru, Knol Tate. Collaborating with friends, and local music veterans, both releases showcase what she has been working on for all these years.
Currently, Faith is working with her new band on more music and is playing lots of shows in Minneapolis and greater Minnesota. They are planning to get back into the studio in the next few months to record another full length album to release at some point in 2016. Faith and her awesome new band are hoping to get on the road for a midwest tour in the next year – stay tuned on that!
Faith pulls inspiration from singer-songwriters like Brandi Carlile, Stevie Wonder, Lissie, and Ryan Adams and plays shows with her band, as well as solo acoustic sets. Faith bends boundaries and doesn't exactly fit into one box. If she gets asked what kind of music she plays, she usually says, "Ummm, singer-songwriter songs that get worked on by the full band, that turn into whatever they're supposed to be? I guess, pop in the classical sense, not bubble gum, with rock and alternative sensibility, sometimes a little rootsy, too? I suck at answering this question…"
Stay tuned for more music and shows coming soon!

Ban the Leaks
Choose a ball valve with leak-tight seals to curb fugitive emissions.
More attention worldwide is being focused on fugitive emissions, which are equipment leaks, as opposed to point-source emissions from reactor vents or boiler exhaust stacks. The trend is toward stringent limitations and more scrutiny, and fugitive emissions will be in the vanguard as regulators attempt to impose the next set of emissions standards.
Fugitive emissions are defined variously and might refer to a wide range of emissions not confined to a stack, duct or vent, including emissions from bulk handling or processing of raw materials, windblown dust and other industrial processes.

The title win in the ICC Champions Trophy is yet to sink in but India have to get out of the party mode as they take on a resurgent West Indies in their opener of the Celkon Mobile Cup at the Sabina Park.
Confident and upbeat, India hardly got time to rejoice their Champions Trophy victory before taking the flight to the Caribbean. But West Indies would be looking for vengeance for their loss in a league game of the Champions Trophy in England.
The hosts have started their campaign on a winning note by thrashing Sri Lanka by six wickets, with the big positive of Chris Gayle getting back to form with a brilliant 109.

Hello there!
2016 Welcome Letter
Welcome all 2016 Exhibitors & attendees
Our goal is to help support and promote local businesses within the surrounding area and give others a chance at showcasing their products to the masses. Along with changes to our admission cost, we have 6 Door Prize draws for our attendees, as well interactive booths, on-going stage entertainment, and a Kids Zone sponsored by the Eastlink Centre.
This year we have introduced a 50/50 Draw with Evergreen Park with our proceeds going to the Jumpstart Program. Jumpstart is Canadian Tires National Charity that follows the belief that all kids deserve to play. Jumpstart is made up of over 200 individual community chapters across the country. In Grande Prairie we partner with local organizations such as Big brothers, The Community Foundation of Northwestern Alberta, YMCA, The Township of Valleyview and the Grande Prairie Public School District to identify children who are being held back from participating in sports or recreation due to financial constraint. From there we are able to fund the individual child to participate or in some cases we have created community development programs to help many children at once participate. Although Jumpstart is a national charity, our chapter is run as a local charity . Our fund raising occurs locally and all of the fund raised stay local. Our chapters have no overhead costs so 100% of the funds that individuals donate stay here to help children participate in all sort of activity from swimming, hockey and gymnastics to hula-hoop, juggling and girl guides.
On the behalf of Show Management, we appreciate your continued support and value your business in making our event a success.

In his first two starts of 2012, Oakland's No. 4 prospect felt he'd let his excitement level get too high. On Thursday, though, he was back to walking softly.
Gray (1-1) allowed one run on four hits and a walk while striking out five over seven innings en route to his first win of the year as Midland topped San Antonio, 4-1.
The 22-year-old had allowed nine runs -- six earned -- in his previous two starts, but put it together against the Missions in an outing reminiscent of the success he had in his first professional exposure last season, when he sported a 0.45 ERA in 20 Texas League innings.
"I've been trying to curb my energy level. My excitement out there has been really high, but today I was a little more quiet," said the Vanderbilt University product. "I was just out there doing my thing, making my pitches and not getting too excited."
MLB.com's No. 85 overall prospect said he noticed San Antonio hitters swinging early and often as the game got underway.
"We figured out in the first two innings they were going to be super-aggressive, and then we tried to use that to our advantage," Gray said. "I tried to expand the zone on the first pitch and got a lot of weak contact that way. The two-seam fastball was running in on right-handers and they were swinging at it, and the breaking ball was there for me finally again. It hadn't kind of been there the first two outings, but it was there tonight."
The outing, Gray's longest in three starts, brought his ERA down to 3.50 in 18 innings to begin the season. The No. 18 pick in the 2011 Draft had walked six in his previous 11 innings, but issued just one free pass against the Missions.
The right-hander credited his calmer nerves and a solid defense behind him for the reversal of course after his first two outings.
"I just felt like I was getting more into my rhythm. I didn't try to do too much," he said. "They were making great plays behind me, sucking it up and throwing them out at first. All you can ask for is to get up there and give your team a chance to win. Hopefully, I can continue to do that."
The left side of the RockHounds' infield provided Gray with most of his run support. Shortstop Dusty Coleman collected three hits and drove in two of Midland's four runs, while third baseman Josh Horton added two doubles.
