Publicity Materials Are Available at: www.racingextinction.com Running Time: 94 minutes Press Contacts: Discovery Channel: Sunshine Sachs Jackie Lamaj NY/LA/National Office: 212.548.5607 Office: 212.691.2800 Email: [email protected] Tiffany Malloy Email: [email protected] Jacque Seaman Vulcan Productions: Email: [email protected] Julia Pacetti Office: 718.399.0400 Email: [email protected] 1 RACING EXTINCTION Synopsis Short Synopsis Oscar®-winning director Louie Psihoyos (THE COVE) assembles a team of artists and activists on an undercover operation to expose the hidden world of endangered species and the race to protect them against mass extinction. Spanning the globe to infiltrate the world’s most dangerous black markets and using high tech tactics to document the link between carbon emissions and species extinction, RACING EXTINCTION reveals stunning, never-before seen images that truly change the way we see the world. Long Synopsis Scientists predict that humanity’s footprint on the planet may cause the loss of 50% of all species by the end of the century. They believe we have entered the sixth major extinction in Earth’s history, following the fifth great extinction which took out the dinosaurs. Our era is called the Anthropocene, or “Age of Man,” because evidence shows that humanity has sparked a cataclysmic change of the world’s natural environment and animal life. Yet, we are the only ones who can stop the change we have created.

It is made up of local leadership, a brigade of first responders, the town priest, a high school marching band and a magic school bus in a town that could be Anytown, America. Yet this isn’t any town. It’s Newtown. Twenty months after the horrific mass shooting in Newtown, CT that took the lives of twenty elementary school children and six educators on December 14, 2012, the small New England town is a complex psychological web of tragic aftermath in the wake of yet another act of mass killing at the hands of a disturbed young gunman. Kim A. Snyder’s searing Newtown documents a traumatized community fractured by grief and driven toward a sense of purpose. There are no easy answers, no words of compassion or reassurance that can bring back those who lost their lives during the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School. Instead, Snyder gives us exclusive access into the lives and homes of those who remain, all of whom have been indelibly changed by the events.

    Married Life, for Better and Worse | Variety

    Married life, for better and worse NOVEMBER 30, 2012 | 04:00AM PT Golden Globe Update 2013 Diane Garrett (http://variety.com/author/diane-garrett/) Leslie Mann wants you to know that the Viagra sex scene in “This Is 40 (http://variety.com/t/this-is-40/)” didn’t happen to her. Sure, the movie, one of several spotlighting the ups and downs of married life this awards season, draws on her union with writer-director Judd Apatow. And it stars their kids. But don’t confuse Pete and Debbie with Apatow and Mann. “That’s not us,” Mann quickly asserts with a laugh when the chemically enhanced coitus scene comes up in conversation. The scene, which opens the movie, sets (http://variety411.com/us/los-an- geles/sets-stages/) the stage for frank treatment of marital relations. Over the course of “This Is 40,” Mann’s Debbie and Paul Rudd’s Pete bicker about cupcakes, their parents and money. They also steal away for a romantic getaway from their squabbling kids and worry about their individual businesses. “I think it’s emotionally true to us, but also true to everyone,” Mann says, citing common marital complaints of feeling neglected or that the kids are getting more attention than the spouse. “It’s universal in that way.” Apatow collaborated with Mann on the script for years. “We come up with ideas, and the reason why fights are balanced in the film is because I try to figure out Pete and she helps me figure out Debbie,” Apatow says. The goal, Mann says, was to present a relationship that rings true, for better and for worse.

Attendees this year included Microsoft founder Bill Gates, JP Morgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon, Chinese President Xi Jinping and many others. Kuwait is well represented at this event through ministers, busi- nessmen, and of course, the Kuwait Investment Authority. We participate in open and closed door discussions on topics ranging from the ‘Youth Imperative’ (ie addressing the 13 percent of the world’s youth that is unemployed - 30 percent in our region) to ‘Smart Cities as Innovation Hubs’; from ‘Climate Change’ to the ‘Future of the Digital Economy’. As business leaders of our organizations, we’ve had the privilege of attending and participating in the WEF annual meeting, as well as the regional meeting for many years. It’s safe to say - this year was unlike any other. The overar- ching theme of populism and radical nationalism loomed over every discussion.
