Featuring an immense array of beloved and exciting stars of entertainment and showcasing tremendous performances, Stand Up To Cancer will empower and inspire countless people across the globe on September 10th, giving us all a great way to support the fight against cancer while providing essential knowledge in the form of stirring messages and images of hope, grace, scientific and medical progress, individual heroism and united activism; and; WHEREAS, The Stand Up To Cancer (SU2C) telecast of September 1Oth will raise funds that will accelerate innovative cancer research. The broadcast is dedicated to the 12 million U.S. cancer survivors, illustrating how groundbreaking research can change the tide in the fight against the disease. The live, one-hour fundraising event will be simulcast commercial-free on ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, Bio, Current TV, Discovery Health, E!, G4, HBO, HBO Latino, MLB Network, mun2, Showtime, Smithsonian Channel, The Style Network, TV One and VH1 and hosted by network news anchors Katie Couric, Diane Sawyer and Brian Williams. The broadcast will air in 195 countries, as well as on the Armed Forces Network. The stars who are participating are simply too numerous to mention here, but they will entertain and inform and answer phone calls from grassroots donors. Also featured on the program will be cancer survivors; and WHEREAS, Every day, cancer kills 1,600 American, or one per minute. This year, more than 560,000 Americans and eight million people worldwide will succumb to the disease. One in three women and one in two men will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetimes. This is simply unacceptable. In the fall of 2007, a group of women who have been profoundly affected by cancer began working together to marshal the resources of the media and entertainment industries in the fight against cancer. Thus began a remarkable grassroots movement, spurred on and supported by the first Stand Up to Cancer telecast, two years ago. The 2008 telecast helped raise over $100 million. This tremendous Stand Up To Cancer movement now returns to prirnetirne TV on September 10, 2010, at 8PM EST & PST/7PM CT. Executive producing this telecast, as she did in 2008, will be Laura Ziskin, an SU2C founding member and cancer survivor; and WHEREAS, To date, five multi-disciplinary "Dream Teams" of researchers from more than 50 institutions, as well as 13 young innovative scientists who are undertaking high-risk yet potentially high-reward projects, have received SU2C funding. (The five Dream Teams are the Epigenetics, Pancreatic Cancer, P13K Pathway, Circulator Tumor Cell (CTC) Chip, and Breast Cancer Dream Teams; on the September 10 broadcast, updates will be provided on the work of the five Stand Up To Cancer Dream Teams, and Dr. San jay Gupta, CNN's Chief Medical Correspondent, will report on other new medical developments.) SU2C brings together these scientists from different disciplines across various institutions to work collaboratively, rather than competitively, at a critical time in the field of cancer research; and WHEREAS, The American Association for Cancer Research (AACR), which consists of more than 32,000 scientists engaged in the fight against cancer, is Stand Up To Cancer's sole scientific partner. The AACR, the oldest and largest scientific organization in the world focusing on every aspect of high-quality, innovative cancer research from the bench to the bedside, is responsible for administering and managing the grants, and providing scientific oversight in conjunction with the SU2C Scientific Advisory Committee, led by Nobel Laureate Phillip A. Sharp, Ph.D., institute professor at the David H. Koch Institute for Integrative Cancer Research at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology; and WHEREAS, Stand Up To Cancer is a program of the Entertainment Industry Foundation (ElF), a 501 (c)(3) charitable organization. SU2C raises funds to hasten the pace of groundbreaking translational research that can get new therapies to patients quickly and save lives; its star-studded television special builds continuing public support and donations for cutting-edge cancer research that translates at a rapid pace from the laboratory to treatments and technologies benefitting patients. One-hundred percent of all donations received from the public will go directly to cancer research. Viewers will have the ability to donate via a dedicated phone line, the web, or through text. Fundraising and public awareness will also be abetted by a pre-show promotion hosted by Cat Deeley, and by pre-show promotion and extended play featured on numerous on-line portals and destination sites (which will all also stream the on-hour special online), including ABC, ABC News, AOL, Bing, CBS, CBS News, Crackle, Discovery Health, E! Online, Fox, G4, Hulu, Livestream, MLB Network, MSN, mun2, NBC, Style Network, TV Guide, TV One, Ustream, VEVO, VH1, Wonderwaii.MSN.com, yahoo.com and YouTube;and WHEREAS, SU2C's founding members include Laura Ziskin, Sherry Lansing, Lisa Paulsen, Katie Couric, Kathleen Lobb, Rusty Robertson, Sue Schwartz, Ellen Ziffren and Noreen Fraser. Major League Baseball was its founding donor.

  • To Save the World, Eat Insects | Martha Stewart Living
    August 14, 2017 To Save the World, Eat Insects Why this Texas company thinks crickets are the future of food. By Bridget Shirvell 125 MORE S H A RE S PHOTOGRAPHY BY: COURTESY OF ASPIRE Find a bowl of slightly roasted crickets as part of the spread at your friend's backyard barbecue and chances are you'll be looking for a new squad. "There's an ick factor, that's people's first impression," said Vincent Vitale, business development manager of Aspire Food Group. Aspire, which is said to be the world's first fully automated cricket farm, is betting on people getting over the ick factor. Based in Texas, the company farms and produces a variety of edible cricket products, sold through its Aketta line. Think cricket protein flour, paleo granola and cricket protein snacks, such as whole roasted crickets and flavored roasted crickets. (Make Your Own Granola -- Whether You Add Cricket Powder is Up to You) PHOTOGRAPHY BY: COURTESY OF ASPIRE This is what an automated cricket farm looks like. WHAT CRICKETS TASTE LIKE Crickets -- I'm taking Vincent's word here -- have a slight sunflower seed-like taste, with a bit of earthy nuttiness and are crispy like chips. WHY THE WORLD NEEDS CRICKETS There's long history of crickets and other insects staring in dishes from cuisines around the globe. Nearly two billion people regularly eat insects, and the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization would like even more people to give them a shot. That's because insects are an incredible source of protein, 30 grams of crickets is about 20 grams of protein, compared to beef with 8 grams of protein, and farming them is much more sustainable than producing beef, poultry and fish.

  • Gus Van Sant Regis Dialogue Formatted
    Gus Van Sant Regis Dialogue with Scott Macaulay, 2003 Scott Macaulay: We're here at the Walker Art Center for Regis dialogue with American filmmaker Gus Van Sant. He'll be discussing the unique artistic vision that runs through his entire body of work. Gus was first recognized for a trilogy of films that dealt with street hustlers, Mala Noche, Drugstore Cowboy, My Own Private Idaho. He then went on to experiment with forum and a number of other films including To Die For, Psycho and even Cowgirls Get the Blues. Gus is perhaps best known for his films, Goodwill Hunting and Finding Forrester, but all of his work including his latest film, Gerry, has his own unique touch. We'll be discussing Gus' films today during this Regis dialogue. I'm Scott Macaulay, producer and editor of Filmmaker Magazine. I'll be your guide through Gus' work today in this Regis dialogue. Thanks. Gus Van Sant: Thank you. Scott Macaulay: It's a real pleasure to be here with Gus Van Sant on this retrospective ... Which is called on the road again. I guess there are a lot of different illusions in that title, a lot of very obvious ones because a lot of Gus' movies deal with travel and change and people going different places, both locations within America but also in their lives. But another interesting implication of the title is that this retrospective is occurring on the eve of the release here and also nationwide of Gerry, which is really one of Gus' best and most moving films but it's also yet sort of another new direction for Gus as a filmmaker.

  • Sample Chapter
    Chapter Three Money for Nothing Europe had a tightly regulated broadcast spectrum, no cable penetration and satellite dishes were considered a blight on the cultural landscape. There was very little marketing outside the mainstream channels. And then came MTV Europe. It is fair to say that true consumer engagement for youth brands began with MTV. —Matthew Freud, Chairman, freud communications TV Europe was an experiment. No one would know whether M the concept of a single channel broadcasting across Europe was viable until we went out and tried to sell advertising. There were people at Viacom in New York who argued that it would be considerably less expensive to simply direct the American feed to Europe rather than funding a new channel. So I was aware that we had an undetermined but limited timeframe in which to prove we could be profitable. The clock was running. I had no choice but to rely on my time management lesson: Prioritize! My first day on the job had been about securing distribution. My second day was about generating revenue. That second morning, Frank Brown and I made a presentation to Columbia Studios. HBO hadn’t run commercials, so I’d had no experience selling advertising.

Washington, D.C. 20530 Re: Producers Guild of America Business Review Letter Request To the Assistant Attorney General: We are writing on behalf of our client, the Producers Guild of America, to request a business review letter with respect to the proposed use of the "p.g.a" certification mark owned by the Producers Guild of America ("PGA"). The "p.g.a" certification mark has been approved for registration by the United States Patent and Trademark Office subject only to proof of use in commerce. (A true and correct copy of the USPTO Web site records reflecting the status and ownership of the "p.g.a" certification mark is annexed as Exhibit A.) Because so many persons now receive producer credits for so many reasons, even cinephiles often find it impossible to determine which person(s) performed the functions of a producer with respect to a given motion picture. The use of the PGA's certification mark would make the persons who truly performed a producer's duties with respect to a given movie easily identifiable. Financiers, actors, lawyers, and others have long demanded a "producer" credit in exchange for their help making motion pictures, both in the United States and abroad.

    For the exclusive use of E. Pepanyan, 2021. 9-501-080 REV: JULY 30, 2002 SUSAN FOURNIER, KERRY HERMAN, LAURA WINIG, ANDREA WOJNICKI Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia (A) Aretha Jackson, president of a private investment firm, put the phone down. It was Thursday, May 4, 2000. A client had scheduled the late evening call to ask her advice on investing in Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia (MSLO), an integrated content and media company dedicated to the business of homemaking. Jackson logged onto Yahoo.com to check MSLO’s stock performance. Noting the steady downward plunge since MSLO went public in October 1999, Jackson reminded herself that this was not an unusual post-IPO pattern. Maybe the old adage “buy low, sell high” might apply. But, what if the spiral signaled some fundamental problem? Jackson downloaded a copy of MSLO’s S-1 filing from July 29, 1999, and went to the “Risk Factors” section. One paragraph looked alarming, with the first sentence set off in caps: THE LOSS OF THE SERVICES OF MARTHA STEWART . WOULD MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS. We are highly dependent upon our founder, chairman and chief executive officer, Martha Stewart. Martha Stewart’s talents, efforts, personality and leadership have been, and continue to be, critical to our success. The diminution or loss of the services of Martha Stewart, and any negative market or industry perception arising from that diminution or loss, would have a material adverse effect on our business. Martha Stewart remains the personification of our brands as well as our senior executive and primary creative force.1 Jackson read on.
